Today's Weather - South East Asia Satellite Photo


The satellite photo looks clear over Kota Kinabalu. Clicking on the Title will bring you to the latest photo at the Japanese website "weather.is.kochi-u.ac.jp". It should be another hot and sunny day.



Thought For The Day -

Life is partly what we make it, and partly what it is made by the friends we choose. (Hsieh Teh Yi)

He was a Chinese author, orator, and diplomat (born 1884). He wrote a number of articles and books on the sayings of Confucius. The articles appeared in the Reader's Digest in the 1920s. One book was titled "Confucius Said It First". Apparently he spoke very good english and was well thought of on the speaking circuits in America at that time.

Here's a link to the MIT newspaper "The Tech" of 6 March 1922 covering his appearance at a talk there. "The Tech" is a pretty modern sounding title and the newspaper was established in 1881!
