My dad

I remembered the time my dad carrying me on his neck.
I remembered the time my dad lashing me because of not-high-enough grades.
I remembered the time my dad motivating my competitiveness through persuading and prize-alluring.
I remembered the time my dad imposing all the rules on me for his authority.

And now he is helping me through all my problems with his insights of life.
I know all he did was not purely for me, he wants to fulfill his ambition through me, I am his extension.

Nonetheless, the fact is, my life is intensely intertwined with his.
I adored him, I hated him, I despised him and I also loved him.

Shining Golf Ball

When you cannot play golf in the day with 50C degree temperature,
you go out during night with a piece of grass and shining golf balls.
It's even harder to lose the balls because rocks barely can hide them.

This is in Australia.
No matter how tough the environment is, people can find a way.

摩罗/ 我们拥有三百万年的民主经验

人类常常错误地理解自己的历史，有时甚至长久地歪曲自己的历史。比如，我们本是从灵长目动物中分化发展而来的，可是我们早就忘记了这个事实，当一个名叫达尔文的科学家经过周密研究重新指出这个事实时，遭到了西方社会精英群体的猛烈攻击。这个故事显示了人类陷入认识的迷雾有多深。

另一个同样严重的错误出现在人类对于自身制度史的认识上。在现代人的描述中，民主制度似乎理所当然地是“文明时代”的伟大创造，是直到近代才逐渐繁荣起来的一种游戏规则。远古时代则难免由残暴的国王大权独揽，独霸天下，他们一个个喜怒无常、专横跋扈、草菅人命、为所欲为。所有的生民都在野蛮、专制的茫茫黑夜备受煎熬。

摩尔根对原始社会之氏族制度的政治特征进行了这样的总结：“氏族制度本质上是一个民主制度。每一个氏族、每一个胞族、每一个部落，都是一个组织完备的自治团体，当几个部落联合成为一个民族时，其所产生的政府的组织原则也将同该民族的各个组成部分的活动原则相协调。”（摩尔根《古代社会》197页，江苏教育出版社期（弗雷泽《金枝》404页，大众文艺出版社1998年出版）。原始社会民主制度的完备和彻底由这个故事可见一斑。摩尔根对原始社会之氏族制度的政治特征进行了这样的总结：“氏族制度本质上是一个民主制度。每一个氏族、每一个胞族、每一个部落，都是一个组织完备的自治团体，当几个部落联合成为一个民族时，其所产生的政府的组织原则也将同该民族的各个组成部分的活动原则相协调。”（摩尔根《古代社会》197页，江苏教育出版社2005年出版。）在原始社会发展为阶级社会的漫长过程中，有的民族过早出现了君主制度。随着社会组织的日趋复杂，文明程度的日益提高，君主制度却越来越朝着集权、专制的方向发展。一个政治家越是才能超群、意志强大，他对原始社会的民主原则就背叛得越是彻底。可以说，这是人类史上一个极其奇怪的逆流。可是，也有一些民族在原始社会向阶级社会转型的过程中，极为尊重历史上的民主原则，千方百计呵护这种文明原则。就在埃及的法老、中国的周王号令四方时，古希腊城邦中的贵族们却依然像氏族时代那样商议公共事务，还常常召开国民大会对贵族们制定的政策和各种方案进行表决。这种对于国家事务的全民参与，对于治国和卫国责任的全面承担，忠实地体现了氏族时代“全体氏族成员共同负责”的政治原则。直到希腊北方的君主国家马其顿将雅典、底比斯、科林斯、卡尔基斯等等城邦共和国全部征服之后，这些城邦的民主制度才被摧毁，希腊世界才跟埃及、中国一样，进入君主制度时代。君主制度是对原始社会民主原则的全面背叛和摧毁，所以摩尔根旗帜鲜明地指出：“君主制度同氏族制度是不相容的。”（摩尔根《古代社会》197页，江苏教育出版社2005年出版。）根据弗雷泽和摩尔根的研究，人类不仅拥有像亚历山大和秦始皇那样实行专制和奴役的历史，同时拥有更加漫长的民主制度历史。人们习惯上认为，人类作为一种物种已经拥有三百万年的历史，也就是说人类的原始社会是从三百万年前开始的。严格意义的君主专制制度，在人类社会的流行却不到三千年时间。既然民主制度在历史上延续了三百万年，专制制度不过流行了三千年，是不是可以说民主制度更加适合人性？是不是可以相信它在人类神经深处的刻痕比专制制度留下的刻痕更深更牢？当我们不得不为三千年专制史所留下的罪恶感到耻辱时，我们是不是更有理由为三百万年的民主制度2005年出版。）

史感到欣慰和骄傲？三百万年的民主传统，其力量不足以低档三千年的专制传统的挟持和规范吗？如果我们越过三千年专制制度之惨痛历史，地球上每个人都可以骄傲地宣称：我的祖先世世代代生活在自由、民主的氏族之中，我的身上流淌着自由、民主的血液，我们拥有三百万年自由、民主、和平的政治经验。令人遗憾的是，人类对于这样一个简单的事实一直没有明确意识到，当弗雷泽和摩尔根向人类揭示这一历史事实时，人类几乎没有予以起码的重视。尤其不幸的是，弗雷泽和摩尔根的言论甚至没有机会像达尔文的学说那样遭到全社会的反对和声讨，因而无法产生广泛的影响。至今为止，他们的学说局限于研究历史的少数学人之中，而不被公众所了解。当年的达尔文一定没有意识到，那些对着他大吐唾沫的欧洲绅士们，为他的进化论之普及所做的贡献是如何地与日月同辉。就此而言，一百个捍卫和宣传进化论的赫胥黎所能造成的影响，也比不过那些阵营强大的反对者们。假如弗雷泽和摩尔根酒泉之下发现了这一点，他们对当年几乎被“文明世界”的唾沫淹死的达尔文，该是多么羡慕不已。好在人类在近几百年来的历史实践中，一直在将原始先民（被称为野蛮人）的政治思想和民主实践，转化为所谓“文明人”建设民主政治的伟大资源。 在原始社会发展为阶级社会的漫长过程中，有的民族过早出现了君主制度。随着社会组织的日趋复杂，文明程度的日益提高，君主制度却越来越朝着集权、专制的方向发展。一个政治家越是才能超群、意志强大，他对原始社会的民主原则就背叛得越是彻底。可以说，这是人类史上一个极其奇怪的逆流。

可是，也有一些民族在原始社会向阶级社会转型的过程中，极为尊重历史上的民主原则，千方百计呵护这种文明原则。就在埃及的法老、中国的周王号令四方时，古希腊城邦中的贵族们却依然像氏族时代那样商议公共事务，还常常召开国民大会对贵族们制定的政策和各种方案进行表决。这种对于国家事务的全民参与，对于治国和卫国责任的全面承担，忠实地体现了氏族时代“全体氏族成员共同负责”的政治原则。直到希腊北方的君主国家马其顿将雅典、底比斯、科林斯、卡尔基斯等等城邦共和国全部征服之后，这些城邦的民主制度才被摧毁，希腊世界才跟埃及、中国一样，进入君主制度时代。

君主制度是对原始社会民主原则的全面背叛和摧毁，所以摩尔根旗帜鲜明地指出：“君主制度同氏族制度是不相容的。”（摩尔根《古代社会》197期（弗雷泽《金枝》404页，大众文艺出版社1998年出版）。原始社会民主制度的完备和彻底由这个故事可见一斑。摩尔根对原始社会之氏族制度的政治特征进行了这样的总结：“氏族制度本质上是一个民主制度。每一个氏族、每一个胞族、每一个部落，都是一个组织完备的自治团体，当几个部落联合成为一个民族时，其所产生的政府的组织原则也将同该民族的各个组成部分的活动原则相协调。”（摩尔根《古代社会》197页，江苏教育出版社2005年出版。）在原始社会发展为阶级社会的漫长过程中，有的民族过早出现了君主制度。随着社会组织的日趋复杂，文明程度的日益提高，君主制度却越来越朝着集权、专制的方向发展。一个政治家越是才能超群、意志强大，他对原始社会的民主原则就背叛得越是彻底。可以说，这是人类史上一个极其奇怪的逆流。可是，也有一些民族在原始社会向阶级社会转型的过程中，极为尊重历史上的民主原则，千方百计呵护这种文明原则。就在埃及的法老、中国的周王号令四方时，古希腊城邦中的贵族们却依然像氏族时代那样商议公共事务，还常常召开国民大会对贵族们制定的政策和各种方案进行表决。这种对于国家事务的全民参与，对于治国和卫国责任的全面承担，忠实地体现了氏族时代“全体氏族成员共同负责”的政治原则。直到希腊北方的君主国家马其顿将雅典、底比斯、科林斯、卡尔基斯等等城邦共和国全部征服之后，这些城邦的民主制度才被摧毁，希腊世界才跟埃及、中国一样，进入君主制度时代。君主制度是对原始社会民主原则的全面背叛和摧毁，所以摩尔根旗帜鲜明地指出：“君主制度同氏族制度是不相容的。”（摩尔根《古代社会》197页，江苏教育出版社2005年出版。）根据弗雷泽和摩尔根的研究，人类不仅拥有像亚历山大和秦始皇那样实行专制和奴役的历史，同时拥有更加漫长的民主制度历史。人们习惯上认为，人类作为一种物种已经拥有三百万年的历史，也就是说人类的原始社会是从三百万年前开始的。严格意义的君主专制制度，在人类社会的流行却不到三千年时间。既然民主制度在历史上延续了三百万年，专制制度不过流行了三千年，是不是可以说民主制度更加适合人性？是不是可以相信它在人类神经深处的刻痕比专制制度留下的刻痕更深更牢？当我们不得不为三千年专制史所留下的罪恶感到耻辱时，我们是不是更有理由为三百万年的民主制度页，江苏教育出版社2005年出版。）

Thank you all

Limited memory drive away important things.
Even it is unlimited, crash could happen so it's better to have backup.
Now I'm using Blogspot as one means of backup and also a means to communicate.

I want to thank you all for what you did for me in the last few weeks, it is REALLY important to me and I TRULY appreciate them. (And yeah, the list is sorted, in importance order, no, I'm kidding, it's in alphabetic order ;P).

US Mobile Network Operators

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mobile_network_operators

No. 1 Verizon Wireless 87.7M subscribers
No. 2 AT&T 81.6M subscribers
No. 3 Sprint Nextel 48.81M subscribers
No. 4 T-Mobile 33.5

Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint are all Tier-1 networks.
But T-Mobile? I only found 3 T-Mobile ASes in US.
AS10728 T-MOBILE-AS10728 - T-Mobile USA, Inc.
AS21928 T-MOBILE-AS21928 - T-Mobile USA, Inc.
AS22140 T-MOBILE-AS22140 - T-Mobile USA, Inc.
And based on this, AS21928 and AS22140 are stub networks with AS10728 not found.

Then how does T-Mobile build its backbone network in US? anyone knows?

Just found out AS21928 has 3 Tier-1 providers: Global Crossing, AT&T and Level-3.
