Conscience

I read news today. A thief broke into a closed Chinese restaurant and stole $200 from the cash register. 2 days later on , when the owner came to work in the morning, he saw a envelope on the floor which wrote, "return you half, for the tragedy of the China earthquake. I call this conscience.

I really don't know how important money are to some people, most of the people or all people. First, you have to believe in destiny, you steal here and you will lost somewhere. You win the lottery, we might lose your opportunity. How much you will have is a destiny. You could, and you might change your destiny, but not by stealing and luck, it is by you bare hands. Second, you can't bring this with you. I have never seen so far, even though I believe in after-death world, and afterlife, but you still get bring your wealth with you. Do you whether people remember you with how much, and how many you achieved for yourself or for others? Yep, I remember uncle John making 10 millions for his whole life, own 2 Mercedes, 2 hammers and a boat, and he opened a successful jewelery stores and he passed away at the age of 80, Or Uncle John always help people, make people laugh, spend time for the community, and giving you both hands when you need only one. If people remember your whole life is only, for yourself , but no one else and you never ever think about the others. I am pity on you. Third, does money really brings happiness? It is absolutely not; it brings greediness, selfishness and stimulate one's evil mind. The most happiness family and people in the world I believe are average Joe and average Mary. But don't make me wrong, a bigger house, a faster car and a nicer meal; more vacation, less working hours of course are better, but you always has to think about what is your soul food. My soul food is helping people and making people happy, This is my soul food. what is your and what do you want people to think about you or remember you?

China Stands Up

These days, I hear China stands up almost every day. I wish we really stand up not for a day, or for a events, but forever. I see Chinese people discriminate its own people all the time, but now I see we are so united. I almost can't control to weep off every times I go to the sohu.com and open the newspaper. Children please don't cry, we are all your parents now. China Stands up.

"walking through those paths, looking through those eyes;
passing through those ruins, digging through those remains;
reading through those story, looking through those videos;
are teachers, children, parents, soldiers, volunteers, police officers, doctors, nurse, factory workers, students, store owners, priests, firefights, airborne
I call them heroes. "

For the 8 years boy who slates to those soldiers who save him,
For the 11 years old boy who carrys his 3 years old sister and walk for 12 hours,
For those teachers who give their lives for their students,
For those parents who give theirs arms to the love one,
For 13 billions Chinese and the rest of the world who care and help.

It is just like my son

Who is my son? My company site. The first site I ever work for was the http://www.burlingtonfreepress.com/ of my intern. I assisted them to build the travel section. It was fun and such a learning experience. The second one was my school NYIT ISA site http://www.geocities.com/nyitisa/index.htm when I was the president of the International Student Association of New York Institute of Technology. I was so exiting to build the site for the member of the club and the site is intact even now. The third one was http://www.friendhouserestaurant.com/ (current offline) when I was a manger in Manhattan NY. It was a nice project for my boss since they don't know much about the website. And now is http://www.pephoto.com/. I spend almost everyday to check out the site and the search engine ratings, reviews, rankings, bugs, blog, comparison...etc. I love what I do and I wish I can keep maintain this site in the future as I spend a lot of my energy with it. It is not just a job or a duty. It actually is a commitment and achievement. I sometimes just can't take my hands off the site. That;s why I was proposed to my boss that I would like to build my own site and work with them. But sadly they denied. Check out my site promotion here @ www.pephoto.com/promotions.php and www.pephoto.com/coupon.php. Other sites I maintain includes http://www.bestcolorphoto.com/, http://www.pephotobooks.com/, http://www.pegreetingcards.com/, http://www.bestcolorpro.com/, http://www.tung-shing-house.com/.

family go first

I received my canvas wrap from canvasondemand.com today. It is nice. Since I used the coupon. I only paid the shipping and handling. It is my son. I used his picture for the canvas. All my co-worker liked it. One of the co-worker HL said, you are lucky". Yes, I am. I have 2 adorable kids and a lovely wife in Japan that waiting for me. I really want to go to Japan and meet them. I miss them so much. After the China earthquake. I believe family always go first, and nothing ever.

I am being sued by the Discover Bank. I owe them money and I have to pay for it. It is no doubt about it. My wife doesn't want us to owe any single dollar in American. She wants us to pay every debt before I go. I am really proud of her. See how many people just leave the country without paying any their debt, credit card. So, I just have to be patient. But for the money I earn now. It is very difficult for me to make up those debt. Please wait. I will be there soon with this wonderful canvas wrap I received today.

15 Places Every Kid Should See

Here's our pick of important American landmarks that every kid should visit. Our choices might surprise you

Beyond fun and relaxation, vacations also provide opportunities to explore, learn, and grow. While these sights are breathtaking at any age, there's something extra special about seeing them as a child—or just through the eyes of one. (Use discretion: Some places simply aren't appropriate for younger kids.) Plus, see family trip photos from readers in our slide show.

Ellis Island Museum, New York City:About 40 percent of Americans are descended from someone who immigrated through this station. Visiting is a powerful experience, thanks to the smartly curated exhibits—and you get a terrific view of the Statue of Liberty on the same ferry ride.
Lincoln Memorial, Washington, D.C.:This is a city of inspiring sights: the Washington Monument, Arlington National Cemetery, and the Jefferson and Vietnam Veterans memorials. Still, the 19-foot marble statue of our 16th president is a can't-miss.
Colonial Williamsburg, Williamsburg, Va.:Kids growing up with e-mail and iPods might not believe it, but there was life before electricity, and even before a United States. The 301-acre open-air museum features hundreds of restored, reconstructed, and historically furnished buildings, and costumed guides tell the stories of the men and women of the 18th-century city.
USS Arizona Memorial, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii:Sunk by a surprise attack on December 7, 1941, the USS Arizona remains six feet below the water as a lasting monument to World War II veterans. A memorial that spans the sunken battleship was dedicated in 1962.
Grand Canyon National Park, Ariz.:Look at what wind, water, and erosion can do: At 5,000 feet deep and an average of 10 miles across, it's the most magnificent natural wonder in the country, and perhaps the world.
National Civil Rights Museum, Memphis:The motel where the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was killed is a museum chronicling the African-American struggle from slavery to Rosa Parks and beyond. Also highly worthwhile: Alabama's Birmingham Civil Rights Institute and Cincinnati's National Underground Railroad Freedom Center.
Redwood National Park, Calif.:Everyone feels humbled, in a good way, when exploring in the shadows of 300-foot-tall trees—many of which are more than 1,000 years old.
Monticello, Va.:Besides the Declaration of Independence, one of Thomas Jefferson's other masterpieces is the estate he designed and tinkered with over the course of five decades, located seven miles from the University of Virginia—which Jefferson also founded.
Gettysburg, Pa.:It's never too early to learn about the sacrifices of those who came before: In the bloodiest war in our nation's history, this Civil War battlefield was the bloodiest of all. Visitors can also see the spot where President Lincoln delivered his famed Civil War speech in 1863.
The Alamo, San Antonio, Texas:The stories of courage in the face of overwhelming forces will be remembered.
Ground Zero, New York City:The hole in lower Manhattan is sacred ground. The nearby Tribute-WTC Center exhibits crushed firefighter helmets and other recovered items.
Niagara Falls, N.Y.:The most powerful falls in North America, with as much as six million cubic feet of water plummeting over the gorge every minute, were awesome when your grandparents honeymooned there and remain awesome today. It's worth crossing into Canada to see them from the other side.
Freedom Trail, Boston:Visit Bunker Hill, Paul Revere's house, and other spots pivotal to the American Revolution. Walk the trail on your own for free or book a tour with a guide in 18th-century garb.
Independence Hall, Philadelphia:It's where George Washington was appointed commander of the Continental Army, the Declaration of Independence was signed, and the founding fathers truly laid the nation's foundation, in the form of the U.S. Constitution.
Walt Disney World Resort, Lake Buena Vista, Fla.:For more than 35 years, this resort destination — it's more than just a theme park — has been bringing the magic to kids and their grown-ups. For tips on navigating its 47 square miles, The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World With Kids is a great place to start.

四川绵阳一位失去家人的孩子依偎在救援人员的怀中。地震发生时，有人忘了生死，舍弃自己的

生命救下学生；灾难救援中，有人忘了危险，奋不顾身投入废墟，为了更多的人生还………突如其来的灾难，虽然让人措手不及，却充满了人间真情，上演了一幕幕感人故事。一位四川记者刚从绵竹退下来，这个娇小的丫头向笔者讲述了她眼见的情况。她说她几乎无法工作，眼泪就没有停过，太惨了，一片一片的废墟，到处是哭喊的声音，救援队发了疯一样的救人，然而往往救不了，跟着去的摄影只了拍一张照片，就扔下相机去帮忙。“因为那情景让你不可能站着看着。”她说，她在一个学校现场看到了她永远不会忘记的一幕:学校的主教学楼坍塌了大半，当时正在上课，几乎有100多个孩子被压在了下面，全是小学生。一些似乎是消防队员的战士在废墟中已经抢出了十几个孩子和三十多具尸体，看着那些小小的，带着红领巾却再也无法睁开眼睛的孩子，她说她突然觉得自己说话的勇气都没有了。然而就在抢救到最关键的时候，突然，教学楼的废墟因为余震和机吊操作发生了移动，随时有可能发生再次坍塌。再进入废墟救援十分的危险，几乎等于送死，当时的消防指挥下了死命令，让钻入废墟的人马上撤出来，要等到坍塌稳定后再进入，然而此时，几个刚从废墟出来的战士大叫:“又发现了孩子！”几个战士听见了就不管了，转头又要往里钻，这时坍塌发生了，一块巨大的混凝土块眼看就在往下陷，那几个往里钻的战士马上被其他战士死死拖住，两帮人在上面拉扯，最后废墟上的战士们被拖到了安全地带。一个刚从废墟中带出了一个孩子的战士就跪了下来大哭，对拖着他的人说:你们让我再去救一个，求求你们让我再去救一个！我还能再救一个！看到这个情形，在场的所有人都哭了，然而他们都无计可施，只能眼睁睁地看着废墟第二次坍塌。后来，那几个小孩子还是给挖出来了，但是却只有一个还活着。看着那些年轻的战士抱着那个幸存的小女孩，在雨中大叫着跑向救援所在的帐篷的时候，她已经泣不成声。无法想象，如此惊心动魄的情形在当时是怎么样一个悲壮的场面，但现在，在震中地区，这样的事情还在重复地发生着。

10岁孩子安置点外徘徊 走遍绵阳寻父

寻亲
人物：张雪枫，10岁，绵阳某小学幸免者
安置地：成都市青羊区体育场
寻找：父亲张志华，北川供电局职工

绵阳九洲体育馆安置点，几名10岁左右的孩子神情焦虑，一直在体育馆周围徘徊。
来自北川的孩子小枫就是其中一名。他在自己的白色T恤后面写上了亟待寻找的亲人：在北川供电局工作的父亲张志华。地震后小枫就与爸爸失去了联系。

“我爸妈都在北川，只有我在绵阳上小学，住在爷爷家。 我们很担心爸妈，但路断了回不了家，只能想到这种方法。”小枫今年只有10岁，但灾难并没有把他吓倒，从地震第一天起，他便穿着写有父亲名字的T恤，走遍了整个绵阳。

“15号我妈妈被解放军救了出来送到医院，她伤得不重，一到绵阳就给我打电话了。但地震时妈妈没有和爸爸在一块，我们谁也没有爸爸的消息。”说到这里，10岁的小枫流下了眼泪。

此时已是下午1时30分，小枫和其他伙伴都还没有吃中午饭，他们朝着市区方向走去：“要趁着白天多找找，兴许就会有消息。”
