According to these reliable demographics data:
Worldwide, there are already 100 million girls "missing" due to sex-selective abortion and female infanticide, according to the English medical journal The Lancet. Fifty million of these girls are thought to be from China.
In 20 years China will become a war-like colonial conquering power, making war and attacking its neighbors.
This awesome tale is another one of those mystical journeys that warms your heart, like chicken soup for the soul. The two horses that miraculously bolted in front of the house to block the anti-tank rocket from killing all the kids in there is just too bizarre not to be true.
I have been using onenote a lot recently because of its collaboration features and because of its integration with outlook, communicator, windows, etc. Onenote is fun and easy to use; the power and simplicity of the hierarchical tabbed organization, and the "blank canvas" layout features make it better than MS-Office-Word for editing documents. You can drag the pictures anywhere on the canvas! Onenote enables quick and easy rectangle screen captures; it stores documents in pages more flexibly than the windows shell; you can "print" to a onenote page then strings(1) out the text. It enables collaboration with soft real-time sync/merge so that many people can work on the same notebook at the same time. In meetings anyone with wireless network can take over writing notes / minutes. At a conference you can read all the notes from all the sessions your team is taking.
I am forced to use more than one computer so I store my own notebooks on a desktop machine at work and create a share for them that only I can access. Then I use onenote's awesome offline and sync with auto-merge feature to access these notebooks on the laptop.
I recently read that onenote's sharepoint integration is actually just webdav. Therefore the free public Internet hosting services that support webdav can be used to store onenote notebooks. I did a little bit of experimenting with the free hosting services; box.net does not work for me, but frontpages-web-hosting.net does. Unfortunately the better, free "cloud storage" services such as omnidrive or streamload (25 GB free!) do note yet offer webdav access. I can imagine scenarios where having "cloud storage" of onenote notebooks and using pocket-onenote in a mobile phone would be very elegant and useful.
It warms my heart to read about a religious gathering of 135,000 Muslims at the holiest Jewish religious site that runs so peacefully. There is hope for peace in this world.
