How to make Chapchae.


Chapchae is one of the most popular noodle dishes in Korea, and also seems to be the one that Westerners like best. The foundation of the dish is the mixture of noodles, soy sauce, garlic, and sesame oil. First, cook the noodles according to package directions. You must follow the directions. I suggest you not to boil too much. Second, heat vegetable (or olive) oil and 1 Tbsp sesame oil, and add onion slices and garlic for about 1 minute. Third, add rest of vegetables and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the vegetables are half-cooked and still a bit crispy. You need to prepare various vegetables for color combination such as broccoli, red peppers, mushrooms. Next, turn heat to low and add cooked noodles, meat (beef), soy sauce, sugar, and the remaining sesame oil. And then, mix to combine and cook for another 2 minutes. It is important that you need to stir constantly. Finally, add salt or more soy sauce if needed. If you need more looking tempting, you need to add sesame seeds.

Robot catwalk


I really feel uncomfortable when I see like it. I'm even feeling threatened by dramatically improving technology. Showing picture is not Human being. It is a robot that has been developed in Japan. The female humanoid with slightly oversized eyes, a tiny nose and shoulder-length hair boasts 42 motion motors programmed to mimic the movements of models. But, the inventors said that they had made the robot too similar to a real human, it would have been uncanny. Namely, they had been inspired from Japanese manga to make it more friendly with human. Do you think that the robot has manga-character's features? Why they even intent to rob a model of job? You can see the robot's awkward walking in here.

Ulsan vs Vancouver



When I firstly went downtown for looking for BCIT, I thought that is so calm and simple compared with my hometown Ulsan's downtown. What are the differences between two city's downtown? Most clear difference is the noise. For instance, Ulsan's downtown is always noisy and deafening, because many shops and pubs use the big speakers with loud music to lure customers and get people's attention. But, Vancouver's downtown doesn't seem to use outdoor speakers to get attention, and so its downtown is less noisy. Next, Ulsan's downtown is very colorful due to the a lot of unorganized and awkward signboards, althought there is the law to regulate this distractive signboards. However, Vancouver's downtown is never colorful and unorganized. So, It would be monotonous, wheres we can see the natural looking of Vancouver's downtown. Finally, we can find our destination easily in Vancouver's, because this downtown was designed systematically. But, it is difficult to find out certain bars and shops in Ulsan's because of a quick development of the city. Therefore, The downtown of each city has a totally different characteristic which can be attraction or a defect.

The association



I have joined the Korean BCIT Students Association. This is my first social activity in Vancouver. However, KBSA doesn't launch officially yet. Major students for management is busy preparing for launching around at September. The true,that there is no Korean strudents association, made me wondering, although many Korean students are studying now in BCIT. Anyway, so I have been asked to make a small poster for the bulletin when I have wanted to help them as possible as. Last week, I made it as you can see. That notify Korean students that KBSA will be opening at this September. And, I'm planning on designing its logo and some posters for notification of a occasion.

Davie street


Let me introduce a unique place to visit in Vancouver. That is Davie street which is a neighbourhood in the West End of Vancouver. It is the home of the city's gay subculture, and, as such, is often considered a gay village or 'gaybourhood'. And, This street can symbolize Canada's multicultural diversity. As you know, Canada is a multicultural country. Many different races are living in Canada. So, I assume that Canadian can easily acknowledge some differences each other. Canadian seems to get ready to accept the unlike sexual orientation, race and ability, of course, there would be exceptional person. You can see the macho guys who are embracing and kissing each other at the many corners of Davie street, but they don't mind peoples eyes. That would be interesting experience to visit there. But, don't strangely look at them kissing themselves. You need to find naturally, because we are stranger in this street.

Google vs Microsoft


This week's my acticle is called "Google takes aim at Microsoft with new PC platform." I found it at the section of Tech on Globeandmail.com.
This article reports that Google is looking to extend its business by developing an operating system called 'Chrom OS'. Most importantly, this field of business is already occupied by Microsoft. Google declared a keen business competition against the technology giant 'MS'. First, they are trying to lure consumers who are familiar with Microsoft's Windows. So, Google is going to release free distribution of 'Chrome' to some programmers. Analysts said "It's a natural extension of Google's attempt for their fundamental purpose. And also, that will be the appropriate method to spread access the internet through a mass of different devices such as Netbooks and mobile phones. Google is now focusing on Netbooks that is small laptop computer, because Microsoft's new Vista operating system software can't set up on Netbook. Also, they are planning on launching Google's second large open-source operating system called Android that is adjusted to mobile phones. So, Google would be able to get confidence of lightweight operating system. Second, Google could contribute Google's free office applications programs something like Microsoft's Word, Excel and PowerPoint that also dominate world market. Experts anticipate that 'Chrome OS' free contribution with Google's free applications to computer manufacturers makes computer prices cheaper. And this consequence would cause increasing advertising chances to approach to many consumers. Finally privacy consultant said that many consumers who use the new operating system could expose their privacy to dangerous of fraud.

I think that this competition among the rival technology companies can be an excellent chance to buy my own Netbook, because sufficient competition can benefits good results to consumers. But, excessive competition among giant companies is be unseemly. Also, many small and medium enterprises could be affected badly such as reducing revenue, with the consequence that one country's economy would be turn down. I hope that these giant companies will be a really good model companies that can consider an ethical business for consumers and society.
