I am soon to be coming back for you!

2006 was a tough year for me, but there was many many changes in my life.
First, I quit my old company which I worked like 5 years. Then I worked for bakery which lasted 2 month. It didn't last long because of unfortunate event. Then I am now working for web programming company. The end of 2006, I started playing inline-hockey. I read many history related books about Japan and the world. My great grandma died in the spring of last year. Before she died, I went to visit her. She had great living power and spirit. I am very very thankful for her eventhough I don't know her very well.

So that's about it. My 2007 is started. I have to write a lot more than I had wrote in my whole life.
I am coming back.

Brain Continued to Evolve As Recently As 5,800 Years


Lahn and his colleagues examined two genes, named microcephalin and ASPM, that are connected to brain size. If those genes don't work, babies are born with small brains, called microcephaly.

Using DNA samples from ethnically diverse populations, Lahn's team identified a collection of variations in each gene that occurred with unusually high frequency.

Researchers said the frequency of the variations probably was due to natural selection, where favorable genetic changes gain a foothold and begin to spread.

For the microcephalin gene, the variation arose about 37,000 years ago, about the time period when art, music and tool-making were emerging, Lahn said. For ASPM, the variation arose about 5,800 years ago, roughly correlating with the development of written language, the spread of agriculture and development of cities.

"The genetic evolution of humans in the very recent past might in some ways be linked to the cultural evolution," Lahn said


This is quite interesting, because many thought brain evolved some thoudand years ago and we use same brain since then.
This study shows we are getting smarter, because of brain evolution in recent.
This means we can make us even smarter by modifying "smart genes".
So, I am limited to my own brain? Is it impossible to think as future human?

The Funny Story of Brushed Metal Theme.

New iTunes 5's theme is no longer "Brushed Metal", but the new darker Mail.app's theme.
This is the story of Brushed Metal Theme.

Sidney Crosby Era Officially Starts

Crosby has been touted as another Wayne Gretzky or Lemieux, who didn't quibble with that notion.

"I think so. Not only (because of) his talent, but the way he thinks about the game," Lemieux said. "He's dedicated to the game of hockey. A lot of guys have had talent in the past, but to put the mind that he has with his talent is special."

Find number in Pi

You can search a number in Pi and find the position that exists. You can search by position too.
Very interesting site.

Apple eBook coming?

Tomorrow Apple will be announcing something big.People are talking about iPod Video and iTunes Phone.Probably I also think the announcement is about one of these.

But if not these, and something bigger. eBook is the only the answer. The device you can carry one thousand books. The device you can take a note. The device which has decent size of screen, but thin, you don't mind carrying everyday, and still does not run out of battery. You can buy novels and most importantly thick and heavy textbooks from iTunes Book Store. This will change everything especially bright kid's life.

I hope Apple introduce this device tomorrow.
Maybe not tomorrow, but I hope they will pull this off.

Billy Corgan Concert in Japan

Billy!

What a great concert that was!
I went 2 shows in Shibuya; first one at very close, and second from in the middle.
At first show, I was near billy-craze Japanese girl always screams when Billy comes near. She threw kiss at him, and he gave back kiss to her. Because Billy notice this girl (maybe already knew each other) and look at her very often, I thought Billy actually looking at me. We were staring at each other! It was wonderful to see Billy so close!

Second day, I stand in the middle of the concert hall, and it was better than first day show for me.
Billy is still rocking, strange, exciting!

Billy Corgan Forever!

Pregnant women could be unwittingly exposing their unborn children to harmful amounts of the hormone oestrogen. Researchers have demonstrated that tiny quantities of this hormone, found in birth-control pills and some plastics, can cause serious deformities in male mouse fetuses.

Earth holding onto Sun's Heat

Article from Scientific American.
Nasa Scientist made climate model that calculates 0.6 watt per square meter of energy is Earth holding right now.
This means that we must really act right now to reduce the usage of energy or find better energy source.

"The most effective actions that we could take now are strong efforts to improve energy efficiency, employ renewable energies, and reduce air pollutants, especially fugitive methane, other ozone precursors, and black carbon (soot)," Hansen remarks. "[In] the long-run we will need either carbon-free power sources or we will need to capture and sequester CO2.�

Slumbering Fruit Flies Shed Light on Genetics of Sleep Needs

Amount of sleep one needs is genetical. Potassium ion's concentration could affect sleep in humans.

From sleep hogs to early birds, people have a wide range of shut-eye needs. Now researchers report in the journal Nature that they have identified a single gene in fruit flies that determines how much rest the creatures require. Because humans carry a similar gene, the findings may shed light on the mechanisms and functions of sleep...
