Edison Chan Scandal

Written by Jimmy on Feb 27th, 2008 | Filed under: Miscellaneous, News

Do you know Edison Chan, the famous Hong Kong star? He’s big news right now because of a huge scandal he made. What is it? He took photos of naked women, and he took photos while he and each of the women made love. No, don’t get it wrong, he didn’t do it with a group of women, but with the women one by one.

OK, that’s already a big scandal. What makes it huge is, those women are very popular women in Hong Kong. Yes, they’re all famous actresses! They include Bobo Chan, Candice Chan, Cathy Leung, Cecilia Cheung, Rachel Ngan, Vincy Cheung, and maybe more! Sources says that there are more than 1700 photos!

How did the photos get out to the internet? Edison said that his notebook was being repaired, and the repair man spread the photos to the internet. The repair man is already caught by the police. Now, that’s really silly, right? Giving your notebook to a stranger while you have lots of such private photos? Hmm…

Edison already made a press conference, saying that he apologizes to the people of Hong Kong, and said that he’ll leave Hong Kong and don’t know when he’ll come back. If you want, you can search about this news and find the photos. I don’t want to provide the link here, because I don’t feel good about sharing it.

Maybe he shouldn’t leave Hong Kong, just find a cosmetic surgery specialist to do a change on his face. This will make him totally different and people won’t recognize him. So he won’t be embarassed anymore. :D

Poor Edison and those girls…

Go It Alone! The Secret to Building a Successful Business on Your Own

Written by Jimmy on Jul 7th, 2007 | Filed under: Miscellaneous

Go It AloneFree to read.

This is a book written by Bruce Judson, a successful go-it-alone entrepreneur, a bestselling and award-winning author, and one of the nation’s leading experts on marketing and entrepreneurship.

Judson’s unique approach is to “battle test” his innovative ideas by founding real businesses based on his evolving principles. These practical tests of his theories, combined with his extensive research, then form the basis for his widely acclaimed books.

 
 
 

Here’s a paragraph taken from the introduction:

Over half (56%) of all Americans dream of starting their own business. The United States is the land of opportunity, but so few of us ever make the leap to this fundamental aspiration. Work is a central part of our lives. Each week for 35 years or more—over 70,000 hours and often half of the time we are awake—most of us work (and travel to and from work). Yet, only a very few of us ever feel that we set our own course, work at what we do best, and are doing what we most love doing. Indeed, in late 2003, the Conference Board reported that U.S. job satisfaction hit a record low: Over half of all Americans are unhappy with their jobs. The Gallup Organization asked 1.7 million employees in 101 companies from 63 countries, “At work, do you have the opportunity to do what you do best every day?” Only 20% of the responding employees working at large firms answered yes. Finally, a 2004 Gallup poll found that over 70% of U.S. workers are “disengaged” from their jobs, meaning that almost three of every four workers have mentally checked out and lost any real commitment to their work or their company.

That’s not good, right? The book may help you to avoid that.

You can buy the book via amazon, or you can read the book for free online. Unfortunately, you can’t download the book as pdf or anything, you must read it on the website.
