Another empty post full of false bravado to make you feel important but it is just sounds of an empty barrel. You just don't get it do you? The US and Vietnam have no issues you speak of. It is just Vietnam itself by trying to insert itself into the global community truly myopic reasoning! The truth is tough for you to swallow, isn't it? Your and other VC apologist's similar action and views will do more long-term damage to majority of our fellow countrymen and women through repression. Such repression is both calculated and deliberate by not equitably sharing economic opportunity. Your lack of honor or forthright has caught you many times in Topix. For example, why don't you explain to the global community why your whole blog (falsely implying that you were Moderator) was deleted? And many of your postings advertising for your sweat shop T-shirt business was yanked off due to violation of Term of Service? I sure would not agree these above facts representative of a person doing just fine. Instead I would describe it as a shameless, self-interested person supporting the Vietnam government just to profit one first. Further must not be able to just make it alone in VN so comes to the US for fame and fortune? No harm in trying for the American dream, but the global community is smart enough to see through it all the false pretense. One can't miss the true motivation along with the blatant double standard being used for self-aggrandizement! |
there will be no economic apportunity if my assets are not protected or insured. just crumbs for commies. talk is cheap. put your money where your mouth is. |

I see it take to almost 10 days to reply, because you had to translate to Japanese to Chinese back and forth, finally to English, alot of work huh.... |

Another baseless comment! Hate to break the news, but the VC apologists are not the center of the universe, especially mine. During our family reunion for Thanksgiving, I promised to myself just concentrate on our big family and didn't even check into this forum. It took me a while to catch up afterward and read some of the postings, I feel obligated to respond out of matter of principle. That's it! |
QueHuong, Sorry to say that this idiot "abc" doesn't understand a word what you said!!! Don't bother to respond to the airhead :). Glad that most of us having a beautiful time together with family during Thanksgiving. I just hope for the people and my relatives back home in VN would have the same opportunity :( |

Unlike some the 3 stooges, we have better things to do. The forum is not our life.GOt that Mr.ABC? Is it a problem that we know a lot of languages? |

Do you develop what's called "medical student syndrome" or are you a cyberchondriac?
Because of the Internet, we can all be first-year medical students. We can all develop what's called "medical student syndrome." We get basic information, and not necessarily a lot of context, and we're off and running toward a conclusion that may be completely wrong. You may be a cyberchondriac if + you move quickly from suspicion to conviction If you quickly become convinced your shaking hands are Parkinson's disease, or your sore throat is an immune deficiency, you need to back away, our panel of experts says. Investigate your symptoms if you like, but leave the diagnosing to the doctors... By Elizabeth Cohen |

GM envisions driverless cars on horizon, "This is not science fiction," Larry Burns said.
DETROIT - Cars that drive themselves — even parking at their destination — could be ready for sale within a decade, General Motors Corp. executives say. GM, parts suppliers, university engineers and other automakers all are working on vehicles that could revolutionize short- and long-distance travel. And Tuesday at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas GM Chief Executive Rick Wagoner will devote part of his speech to the driverless vehicles. "This is not science fiction," Larry Burns, GM's vice president for research and development, said in a recent interview. The most significant obstacles facing the vehicles could be human rather than technical: government regulation, liability laws, privacy concerns and people's passion for the automobile and the control it gives them. Much of the technology already exists for vehicles to take the wheel: radar-based cruise control, motion sensors, lane-change warning devices, electronic stability control and satellite-based digital mapping. And automated vehicles could dramatically improve life on the road, reducing crashes and congestion. If people are interested. "Now the question is what does society want to do with it?" Burns said. "You're looking at these issues of congestion, safety, energy and emissions. Technically there should be no reason why we can't transfer to a totally different world." GM plans to use an inexpensive computer chip and an antenna to link vehicles equipped with driverless technologies. The first use likely would be on highways; people would have the option to choose a driverless mode while they still would control the vehicle on local streets, Burns said. He said the company plans to test driverless car technology by 2015 and have cars on the road around 2018. Sebastian Thrun, co-leader of the Stanford University team that finished second among six teams completing a 60-mile Pentagon-sponsored race of driverless cars in November, said GM's goal is technically attainable. But he said he wasn't confident cars would appear in showrooms within a decade. "There's some very fundamental, basic regulations in the way of that vision in many countries," said Thrun, a professor of computer science and electrical engineering. The Defense Department contest, which initially involved 35 teams, showed the technology isn't ready for prime time. One team was eliminated after its vehicle nearly charged into a building, while another vehicle mysteriously pulled into a house's carport and parked itself. |

Thrun said a key benefit of the technology eventually will be safer roads and reducing the roughly 42,000 U.S. traffic deaths that occur annually — 95 percent of which he said are caused by human mistakes.
"We might be able to cut those numbers down by a factor of 50 percent," Thrun said. "Just imagine all the funerals that won't take place." Other challenges include updating vehicle codes and figuring out who would be liable in a crash and how to cope with blown tires or obstacles in the road. But the systems could be developed to tell motorists about road conditions, warn of crashes or stopped vehicles ahead and prevent collisions in intersections. Later versions of driverless technology could reduce jams by directing vehicles to space themselves close together, almost as if they were cars in a train, and maximize the use of space on a freeway, he said. "It will really change society, very much like the transition from a horse to a car," Thrun said. The U.S. government has pushed technology to help drivers avoid crashes, most notably electronic stability controls that help prevent rollovers. The systems are required on new passenger vehicles starting with the 2012 model year. Vehicle-to-vehicle communication and technology allowing cars to talk with highway systems could come next. Still in debate are how to address drivers' privacy, whether current vehicles can be retrofitted and how many vehicles would be need the systems to develop an effective network. "Where it shakes out remains to be seen but there is no question we see a lot of potential there," said Rae Tyson, a spokesman for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. ___ Associated Press Writer Ken Thomas in Washington contributed to this report. |

Find your true self
Attitude toward the self By Huynh Dinh Te URL: http://www.vietspring.org/values/attitude.htm... Status of the individual Status of the individual Despite his concern for a certain amount of individuality, the Vietnamese is not an individualist. In Vietnamese culture the interest and destiny of an individual are rarely conceptualized outside the framework of the immediate and extended families. Anything a Vietnamese does, he does out of consideration for the welfare of the family, rather than for himself alone. As an individual, the Vietnamese endeavors to live in harmony with himself as well as with the outer world of humanity and nature. Harmony with oneself is achieved by the acceptance of life and the world. To the Vietnamese, life is the most precious property to which no material possession can be compared. As a proverb puts it, "a man alive is worth more than a pile of golf." The preservation of the self is not only a personal responsibility but also the responsibility of an individual toward his family.'This recognition of the importance of the physical self distinguishes the mentality of the Vietnamese from the Hindu, which is characterized chiefly by the importance given to the world of the spirit, often carried to the extreme of despising and considering as irrelevant any material aspect of life. Harmony with oneself is achieved by observing moderation and by avoiding extremes. The reason for seeking moderation in food and drink is not only physical safety but also for the moral imperative to keep one's dignity unimpaired. Moderation and caution in speech constitutes a distinctive feature of Vietnamese culture. Since childhood, the Vietnamese is taught to think deeply before opening his mouth, and, in the words of a well-known proverb, "to open his mouth only when asked to and to answer only when beckoned to." This attitude is in part prompted by the belief that wise and talented people are modest in action and speech. Bragging reflects and empty soul. Moderation and caution in speech are also motivated by an awareness of the danger that verbal excess can bring by creating discord and animosity. It is commonly believed that hasty words and slips of tongue are as devastating as hasty actions and bad deeds. Because of this cultural predisposition, the Vietnamese often appear to be reserved, non-responsive, or non-assertive by American standards. This is particularly true of the behavior of Vietnamese children in school, where they rarely volunteer an answer for fear of making mistake and losing face, or of appearing to behave in boastful way. They would rather wait until called upon by the teacher to give an answer, for since early childhood, they have been taught to talk only when talked to and to answer only when asked to. Certain virtues seem to have a greater appeal to the Vietnamese than the others. Most conspicuous are moderation, modesty, moral probity and self-control, qualities which make him a refined, well-mannered person. The term of criticism that the Vietnamese fears most is ill-bred (Ç̉ mĂt dåy), which deals a serious blow not only to the ego but also to the honor of his family, and by extension, to filial piety. Naming system Other than the physical self, perhaps the thing that most confers identity to a person is his/her name.(In his own country, the Vietnamese does not have a social security number.) The naming system of the Vietnamese is different from that of Americans and most other Asian peoples. What's your Name? A Study in Cultural Differences Cont...

LibraA certain someone has a high opinion of themselves today, much to your dismay. It will be difficult to stop them going on and on about themselves, or from telling you all about their clever children. However, there's a chance that you could be the one who's being boastful or pretentious, even if you don't realize it. So try to be aware of what you're saying and of the reception you're getting from the people around you.
