Announcing the release of Fedora Core 5

Hi, my name is Fedora Core "Bordeaux", and today I am 5. When I turned 4 last year, they got a funny salesman to talk about me like I was a toy. I like toys. But today Teacher said I am a big kid, and I should talk about myself. I can do lots of big kid stuff now, and everyone tells me that I play really well with all the other kids in class, even the ones who are mean like bullies. I always try and share, which is what Teacher says is the best thing.

Sharing is a really good thing to do. I like to share all my toys and books and stuff with all the other kids so that they can play with them and even learn things, too. I have a lot of neat
stuff to share, so I made this cool list to tell you all about it. Teacher gave me some things to put in the list, but since I'm a big kid I think I should get to say what I want, too.

* GNOME 2.14
"Improved speed and usability, and new and better features for power management, file sharing, user help, system administration, teleconferencing, picture browsing, and networking." I think it's easy enough for even my little brother to use, but Mommy and Daddy like it a lot too.

* OpenOffice 2.0.2
"Enhanced productivity features, extensive compatibility with other popular office software, database connectivity functions, and improved use of system libraries for faster loading and better responsiveness overall." Mommy says she can make slide shows for work even easier
than before, and Daddy uses it to organizes all our books, music, and movies in databases.

* KDE 3.5.1
"New and exciting features for users and developers, including stylish and attractive applets, educational and entertaining games, incredibly standards-compliant Internet tools, and enhanced multimedia and usability." Plus it looks REALLY cool, especially when my big sister fixes it just the way she likes.

* Mono
"Support for .NET means a new generation of dynamic and powerful cross-platform applications, with some already included, such as Tomboy for note-taking, F-Spot for photo management, and Beagle for content searching and indexing." See, I told you I'm really good at sharing! Plus, I don't ever have a problem remembering or finding things, like pictures, homework, or messages. Mommy says she's really proud of me.

* Yum-based Package Tools
"Installation and software management tools are all based on the flexible and powerful yum utility for easy selection and upgrade of new and existing software." And soon, I'll even be able to get my own special software at install time!

* Xen Virtualization
"The best framework yet for installation, management, migration, and monitoring of software-based virtual domains, allowing system owners to effectively leverage and force-multiply existing hardware for maximum efficiency, scalability, redundancy, and flexibility." Teacher says I get more work done faster than any other kid in our class, too.

* Enhanced Security
"Support for SELinux binary policy modules means that users and developers can now ship their own specialized policies with affected software. GCC's best of breed features, such as stack
protection, NX, PIE, and compile-time buffer checks, pile on additional layers of assurance to effectively block illegal ingress." I know all my safety rules, and Mommy and Daddy say that
it's really, REALLY hard for monsters to get in our house!

So at school, I got awards for "Best Attendance," "Teacher's Pet," "Honor Roll," and "Good Manners," plus Teacher lets me stay after to clean the erasers until Daddy comes to pick me up. He always tells me how good I am compared to the other kids he knows and that he's really
proud of me. He says it's because I'm 100% free and open source, and because I always try to do the right thing just like he and Mommy taught me.

I told him I didn't just learn it from him, but from all the nice people at Red Hat and the Fedora community, who teach me new things all the time. They're all different kinds of people --
users, developers, writers, translators, testers, editors, and so many other things I can't even write it all. They're the people who make it possible to build a complete Linux platform from open source software.

All right, I have to go now. There's always more things to learn and do and I am a very, extremely busy kid. 'Bye!

- - -

Fedora is a set of projects sponsored by Red Hat and guided by
the contributors. These projects are developed by a large community
of people who strive to provide and maintain the very best in free,
open source software and standards. Fedora Core, the central Fedora
project, is an operating system and platform, based on Linux, that is always
free for anyone to use, modify, and distribute, now and forever.

五丈塬游记

共和国五十六年中，余随沪李公夏玮，自长安西向，欲之五丈塬。五丈塬者，于秦岭北坡之岐山县境。余等漫途惟艰，颠簸曲折七上八下。甚者人伦颓失，信义荒废，盖天地黄土之间无坦途乎？

经五时，历阴阳之气，观人文之变，终至五丈塬下蔡家坡。大饥，于道间冲天飞尘中鲸吞岐山臊子面两碗。饱食而后寻道，雾尘而后昏昏。

不时已当五丈塬，此间黄土之带，沟壑纵横，阡陌交通。绝壁上下，莫有余生。厚土焦灼，自有人家。稀草依依，窑洞为窟。

盘 塬而上，有诸葛武侯庙。诸葛武侯者，蜀汉大丞相，天下之奇才也。往昔如梦，司马对垒。鞠躬尽瘁，死而后已。终卒于五丈塬。至此蜀汉灵魂散尽，基业去已。仰 天长啸，不亦悲夫！后人记其功德，尊其忠义，遂起庙于五丈塬顶，世世焚香，代代祭拜。而其间民风淳厚，得益于武侯遗风乎？然千年淳朴，丧于熙熙，忠良敦 厚，毁于攘攘。利益之道天下莫不能当！庙门匾额大书：五丈塬诸葛亮庙。门内立二将，曰魏延，曰马岱，皆前世之名将。大殿内塑武侯像，儒雅清朗。左殿杨仪， 右殿姜维，蜀之能臣，为孔明所重，托于遗愿，终不能圆满，叹息千载。殿后有武侯衣冠冢，冢边立一石碑，碑后嵌一石，传曰落星石，乃孔明归天之际天帝之泪。 然千七百年之石而传于今，余以为不可信，乃后人牵强附会制作。园内清净悠然，若避离凡世，若入五柳先生之桃花源也！

时值三月，春风和和，薄雾不散。余等观塬上风光，由后山径下，环走信步，其乐甚甚。途游诸葛井，孔明行辕。

至大道，走陈仓，一路流离往长安。星夜归，满身泥，同学笑当兵马俑。

A Story from a PhD Thesis

Scene: It’s a fine sunny day in the forest, and a rabbit is

sitting outside his burrow, tippy-tapping on his typewriter. Along
comes a fox, out for a walk.

Fox: “What are you working on?”
Rabbit: “My thesis.”
Fox: “Hmm. What is it about?”
Rabbit: “Oh, I’m writing about how rabbits eat foxes.”

(Incredulous pause)

Fox: “That’s ridiculous! Any fool knows that rabbits
don’t eat foxes!”
Rabbit: “Sure they do, and I can prove it. Come with me!”

They both disappear into the rabbit’s burrow. After a few
minutes, the rabbit returns, alone, to his typewriter and resumes
typing. Soon, a wolf comes along and stops to watch the hardworking
rabbit.

Wolf: “What’s that you’re writing?”
Rabbit: “I’m doing a thesis on how rabbits eat wolves.”

(Loud guffaws)

Wolf: “You don’t expect to get such rubbish published, do
you?”
Rabbit: “No problem. Do you want to see why?”

The rabbit and the wolf go into the burrow, and again the
rabbit returns by himself, after a few minutes, and goes back to
typing.

Scene: Inside the rabbit’s burrow. In one corner, there is a
pile of fox bones. In another corner, a pile of wolf bones. On the
other side of the room a huge lion is belching and picking his
teeth.

THE END

MORAL OF THE STORY:
It doesn’t matter what you choose for a thesis subject.
It doesn’t matter what you use for data.
What does matter is who you have for a thesis advisor.

妇女节快乐！

女人这辈子挺难的：漂亮点吧，太惹眼，不漂亮吧，拿不出手；学问高了，没人敢娶，学问低了，没人想要；活泼点吧，说你招蜂引蝶，矜持点吧，说你装腔作势；会打扮，说你是妖精，不会打扮，说你没女人味；自已挣钱吧，男人望而却步，*男人养吧，说你傍大款；生孩子，怕被老板炒鱿鱼，不生孩子，怕被老公炒鱿鱼。哎，这年月做女人真难，所以要对男人下手狠点，对自己宽大处理为上。祝所有MM妇女节快乐！

黄土有意，客运无情

2006年3月3日，我和同学两人从西安去岐山县五丈塬游玩。早晨8点，我们来到火车站旁尚德门汽车站，询问有关人员后得知没有从西安直接去五丈塬的车，只有坐到宝鸡的车。于是我们找到了一辆蓝色的大巴车，车头上有牌子写着西安－宝鸡。我们和一个女老板谈好在蔡家坡下是25元，女老板说是走西宝高速，可以在蔡家坡的高速下道口让我们下去。

车辆在8点35分左右开车，但是车辆并没有像老板答应的那样走高速，而是一直沿着一条小路曲折颠簸而行，一路上数次为了拉乘客而停车延时。在中午12点半左右车辆到达眉县，此时司机开到一个路口后停车，女老板要求我们全体下车，说是这车不去宝鸡了，说是另外要我们自己坐车去宝鸡方向。当时我们询问老板与司机为何要我们换车而事先不明示且说好走高速而不上高速，老板与司机的态度十分恶劣，说从来没有说过会走高速，而且现在车另有他用，你们必须下车。我们当时很愤慨，明确表示我们要进行投诉，得到的回答是：随便你们，陕西我们这里的管理局都搞定了，你们投诉试试。

当时我们下车后查看车牌号码，发现此车前后都没有放置正规牌照，车的前部有张纸片上写着：陕C48202，车的后部用油漆在车尾上写着：陕C13720。

把我们赶下车后，他们驾车扬长而去。

我们一个是来自上海的游客，一个是西安本地的学生。因为陕西省丰富的旅游资源和黄土地带神奇的地理地貌而醉心神往，本来一次非常愉快的旅行就因为这样的一次蛮恨无理，飞扬跋扈的恶劣事件弄得十分扫兴。更让我们失望的是陕西省的交通客运管理如此混乱，使得私人客运承运者才如此无视乘客的权益。

斯事已去不可追，希望这个事情就是想能够得到主管部门的重视。市场是会说话的，散客旅游业也是以后的一种趋势。我们希望以后不要再有这样的事情发生。

International Conference

今天看到一个大学同学的paper已经发了，心中甚是担忧。我的paper什么时候才能发呢？于是在网上找了关于FPGA的国际会议。不找不知道，一找吓一跳啊！这么多啊！什么FPGA, FPT, FPL, FCCM, DAC, ASP-DAC, AP-ASIC, ICCAD, ISCAS等等，实在是五花八门啊！如果能发一篇这样的paper，那也就满足了，还能被SCI或EI检索呢！加油吧！赶紧去写paper去～～
