As Harvard, MIT and Stanford, three of the best universities in the world as ranked in US News, begin to offer online courses, as do Yale University and University of California-Berkeley, I hear murmurings of 'the days of the brick and mortar university is over'. Also, using those tools...

According to Oshiotse and O?Leary?s work, ?Corning creates Inclusive Culture to Drive Technology and Performance?, it states that a new sort of diversity is seen in 14 areas, including military experience, work style, parent, function, lifestyle and personality. Indeed, I think Aspies Central...

Well, today was an interesting sermon. I was mentally counting how long it would take Pastor to get around to the main point of today's scripture reading which was about circumcision. You could tell he wasn't comfortable with the topic especially in a mixed audience. It took him well over...
From what I read on Daft's book New Era of Management, awareness of certain biases can help managers make more enlightened choices: 1. First impressions. They could make a disproportionate emphasis on initial comments or incomplete data to use as anchors in decision making. I think I am prone...

Fong Fei Fei is one of the few Mandopop, or rather, pop singers, that I listen to. Fong Fei Fei was the Dolly Parton of Mandarin pop, or Mandopop. Or maybe I can express it this way, in my mother's era, she was as famous as Dolly Parton and Whitney Houston (who died a month after her)...

I've been reading a book by Mary Schiavo, who was former Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Transportation. I can't remember the entire title but I think it's called "Flying Safer, Flying Smarter" or something like that. It's about the airline industry and the FAA. What's interesting...

I looked up for a management guru - himself a 40-year veteran in business training and a management consultant - and he gave me the not-quite-helpful-but-really-thought-provoking advice: "Quit accounting if you can, and do marketing". I myself am a student doing accounting and finance in...

I have bought every piece of clothes I really, really love, in physical stores. I'll wear them, like, forever and ever so long as they're awesome. But things will change, I'll explore buying from online stores in near future. I can't buy from Singaporean stores anymore. I always go to the...

However, allow me to qualify my statements, as quoted above. If I don't feel ready to financially support first love, in case anything happens, I won't perform the sexual act. I do my best to attend classes on dating and marriage, in case I need them. I won't force my way around women...

I always intended to form an all-inclusive autism community in Singapore, where Auties and Aspies work together for the greater good. I don't mind if High-Functioning Auties or Aspies oppose to it, because after all, look at it, why do we have autism spectrum disorder? ASD is about people...

Sunday night I did something a bit unfair. When the moderator asked if anyone had any questions before moving on to the pre-approved questions I said yes. What was my question? In light of Pastor's sermon about Abraham and Sarah taking matters into their own hands instead of waiting on God to...

‎Tigris River and me, we both don't like a certain ex-common friend but we can't seem to find the perfect partner for our dreams. We both want to form the community for Aspies in Singapore. We tried different models, but I hung in the towel first. After all, AC is so much more effective than any...

When we were studying the Book of Acts one thing that just didn't make sense is how violently the Jewish leaders reacted to Paul's message. The standard explanation is that they didn't like him saying that the Messiah had already come in the form of Jesus. But Jewish history is full of...

I see that Aspies' employability are often not related to their interests. Indeed, some interests could even prevent many Aspies, without skills to support their interests, to not be employable. Eric Chen, a famous Aspie who has 'out' his autism, as I recall offhand, once said that Aspies are...

Today Pastor preached on the second half of the fourth chapter of Paul's letter to the Galatians. Paul is upset because people have been coming around telling his Gentile converts they have to keep the Jewish law in its entirety to be saved. Ever since his experience on the Damascus Road, Paul...
My Singaporean friend, Tiger, said that he doesn't like Singapore expanding the university places to 40% of Singapore's cohort. He wishes my country cap University places because University is over-valued, and does not prepare graduates with a job in the relevant area. I agree with him...

There has been an update in the Milton Hall case. Milton Hall was the homeless mentally ill African-American who was shot to death by Saginaw police after threatening them with a knife. You might say it's Michigan's Trayvon Marvin case. There were six officers involved in the shooting...

We had lunch in a restaurant in Singapore, located in a social club. Dad and Mom are members of the social club. To generate more revenue, the club decreed that every 3 months, members have to pay US$100 in membership, including a minimum spending levy of US$70 in the Club. My parents, being...
