The day started miserably for I was doing poster design instead of going to sleep early. There were stress placed by colleagues even though I could push the load away since I had already told them I was extremely busy with other stuffs and my studies.I went to sleep after three AM to wake up after eight and quickly washed up for work. I met my problem child female on train and had a nice teasing o
I was planning to sleep early on Saturday morning but a friend messaged me in MSN and thus, slowed down my blogging speed.

New design work arrived and I was not sure if bosses knew about it; I was not sure if I should notify them about it so that others would add in more workload for me when I was already at my throat.

Two days ago I enthusiastically ordered a book from Amazon.co.jp.

Thank you Aaron for posting this. Yes, I am one of the few who's not seen it (don't have TV, we don't watch Oprah), and now I have. I am posting it here for some of my readers who may have missed this also. Take 10:10 min of your time - listen to Randy Pausch - it's worth it!:This is so good to watch on a Monday morning. Have a great day y'all.
Randy Pausch, the Carnegie Mellon University computer science professor who became a publishing and internet sensation because of the courageous way that he faced his impending death, died this past Friday. His The Last Lecture became a best seller and served as an inspiration to anyone who happened upon it. Knowing about Randy's terminal illness made this a hard book to put down, but it was
Randy Pausch, 47, famous for his remarkable taped speech known as the “last lecture” which was a sensation throughout the web last year passed away on Friday. His last lecture at Carnegie Mellon, where he was a professor, was inspirational in it's life lessons, but the most remarkable aspect was that he knew he had terminal pancreatic cancer before he gave the speech. Instead of focusing on th

If you haven't seen any clips of Randy Pausch' "Last Lecture" you should watch this video, I know i know it's long 1 1/4 hrs to be exact, but what you'll take away from it is worth more than your hour guaranteed....no matter what you make an hour. Randy Pausch has passed away but his legacy lives on forever.
The world has just lost a fantastic inspiration today. Randy Pausch, who is famous for his "Last Lecture" has finally succombed to the terminal pancreatic cancer which inspired his lecture (and the insuing best-selling book) this morning at his home in Virginia. Randy has and will always be an inspiration to millions with his indomitable spirit and fantastic attitude despite facing unc
At times I post news on this site that doesn't seem directly or overtly "copywriting" in nature. Today is a day like that. But as I have expressed in the past, always remember that any sort of communication that evokes a response has a copywriting lesson in it. The nature of copy is such that it is a form of communication designed to evoke a response. So here's your lesson for today:Randy Pausch,
Randy Pausch died today, but I hope it is not the end of his lecture:Professor Pausch was a person, who in his courage, intelligence, insight and child-like wonder, had more to offer us than all the politicians, professional god worshipers and self-help gurus, put together.RIP Randy Pausch.But a dream goes on forever.
Sadly, I read in the news that Randy Pausch, the author of the ever popular and much viewed video on YouTube "The last Lecture" has died. We've discussed this video/lecture a couple times in the past here on the Coffee Blog - and I mistakingly read that he had passed away about 2 months ago - only to find out he was still alive - but this time it's in the national news that yes, he has passed on.

A lot of professors give talks titled "The Last Lecture." Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them. And while they speak, audiences can't help but mull the same question: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy?

Now he's brought out his Last Lecture in this classic format. Even if you've watched Randy on Youtube, it's still worth your money.Dictated to Wall Street Journal columnist Jeffrey Zaslow by Pausch during the latter's daily bike ride, the book shows how Pausch could not have made it without the help of so many people in his life, including his parents "My parents knew what it took to really help people", football Coach Graham "He gave me a feedback loop for life" and his college mentor Andy van Dam.We also learn about how he dealt with complications during the birth of his children and the news that his cancer was t

Enjoy...I enjoyed his discussion of the eidetic teaching style of OSensei. I've talked about that elsewhere. I think (I'm guessing) that what Ueshiba and Kono were calling the "Yin and Yang" solution to the aiki problem is the same thing that we're talking about when we refer to the Kito principle - the idea that energy waxes and wanes. You can read more of my ideas on the Kito principle here and here. I also find it interesting that
