Biochem HW of Oct 12

1.p10~What is the pI of the dipeptide Lys-Arg (The three pKa of Lysine are 2.2, 9.0& 10.5 and those for Arginine 2.2, 9.0& 12.5)?
(我也不會算耶,課本好像只有教amino acid的 pI算法 (p84)没教dipeptide的算法)
(~今天(Oct 15)老師草草率率的教了一下...)

2.What is beta oxidation? What is the outcome of the beta oxidation of Serine?(Note: Thr Trp can also undergo beta oxidation)
>為何我查到的beta oxidation 是lipid的反應?

3. Find the dielectric constant of Methanol, Benzene, Acetone; compare them with water(dielectric constant=80) (and discover the magnificance of water~like, yeah right)
>tip: check here
|Methanol (77° F) 32.6
|Benzene (68° F) 2.3
|Acetone (77° F) 20.7 / (127° F) 17.7 / (32° F) 1.0159
|~None is higher then water

心情；剛班完宿舍 ...

這次搬進宿舍真是風風雨雨阿∼
前天繳完錢後高高興興的來到了位於上個學期住的男5舍隔壁的男3舍。
找到教官後發生了我被分配到的床位有人住的烏龍（見之前的文章）
換了房間後，又重打了2把鑰匙，花了120元，然後回到房間，發現我打的2把鑰匙中100元的那隻竟然沒有用，因為鎖壞了！
今天扛著大包小包，正要進宿舍大門時，妹妹一針見血的問了一句；“你有沒有帶衣服？“
這才想到我那最大箱的，裝滿衣服和毛巾的塑膠櫃還躺在我那好幾公里外的家中的房間呢！
只好把東西拿到宿舍房間一放就走人，跟著家人逛大賣場，然後回家T_T

回到家後，把那該死的塑膠櫃五花大綁，又坐車到基隆市區，上了客運，然後再度回到宿舍
於是乎
又發現，筆袋和衛生紙沒帶...XD

整理房間後發現又需要檯燈和網路線
以前住男五時這兩樣和鑰匙都是現成的說...

接著又發現室友擺了一隻鑰匙在我桌上，說是多的房間鑰匙...
好，我今天學到了一見事；“要打鑰匙錢先搞清楚是否需要，不是教官說可能要，就急著去打“

前人留下來的東西非常多
有馬克杯、益智遊戲、玩具熊、電池一堆、笛子、音樂譜架、直立式電風扇、床墊、枕頭、網球、一匙靈...
列不完啦！
有些保留，有些丟掉，但宿舍走廊上的垃圾桶很快就被我一個人塞爆了。

好，接著找同學一同跑光華，買滑鼠（舊的太爛了，你動它，游標不一定會動）、網路線、和麥克風（for skype）
回來後，竟發線宿網這學期開始要註冊才能使用，然後註冊完要等1~2天
等“人“來幫你處理申請了資料...
（目前在使用同學的 apple ibook在他的房間blogging，mac OS很棒，但還是不習慣...）

有網路後我就會馬上灌Skype的
但不知那是何時...

Notes~学習と管理

分享一下今天工程倫理課の筆記
>In big shits, hit your mouth shut
>専注の学習能力＆態度/主動積極
>need: self management, passion, relationships, dreams
>Team work does more -> synergy
>#1rule in relationships: listen to others.
>give your self time to contemplate: What am I doing? Where am I going?

我の宿舍〜 T_T

原本很高興終於有了宿舍、去向教官報到 ...

却発現我の床位被黒走了！
到房間一看,都是東西、很明顕有人「正在」住那,這那多の東西看起来不是短時間内搬得走的

Oh,還要多久我才能終結通車生活？

〜後続〜
換了個房間,希望没問題了

today's biochem HW Oct 7（更新&除錯完成）

1.Which amino acid has the most chiral centers?

2.p9~How many optical isomers for arginine(Arg)and tryptophan(Trp)

3.How does the amino acid Pye control hair color?(tip: Pye is a precursor of melanin)
^sorry, but I strongly suspect that it should be Phe, not Pye
(Phe-->Tyr--> Melanin)
4.糖精(saccharin)のstructure?

5. How does sickle cell anemia occur?

XD. What does "eat your heart out" mean? ^^

脚踏車衝醫學院！

今天吃完晩飯後,吃飽没事幹,就騎著脚踏車往醫學院衝,想測測看自己能多快到達。
一出大門口就照著校車の路線、往大安森林公園方向走,然後再往左走仁愛路。一路上車非常多,就連我這小小的bike也被塞住、走走停停。而且紅緑燈超多的。我想我若在這種鬼地方開車大概会很痛苦。（泰國好像更惨...）
走走停停,中徒還到多花2分到別の地方看看,結果到達目的地還是只要 19分 35秒,比昨天坐校車快 20分耶！但那様的塞車状況在校車上度過還是較好。

Comment: Palmone Tungsten T5 may come out next week

Updated Tungsten, Treo set for release | CNET News.com

So much for our long wait for the Tungsten T5, it doesn't run OS6, but for a simple reason.
So this is the reason why NO ONE, not even palmone, wants to make models running palm OS 6(colbat)-->It's desktop software dosn't support macs! Ha! Ha!
Palmsource, are you reading this?

But other then the OS, it's still a disapointing handheld, at least to me, so I won't even consider it unless my NX dies.

First of all, that Tungsten E case is ugly.
Second, still no built in WIFI, and only a single expansion slot. Which means that you can't download stuff to a card.
Third, can't they just dump real player/kinoma and write a better audio/video player?
Last, all of the above are not a problem on the clie NX(with a second slot for WIFI) or TH series, so how come Palmone still prefers to play catch up even after Sony left the market? Waiting for HP+Microsoft to eat them up?

心情: stupid comments

a friend of mine killed his old blog and did a new one
as boring a I might be
I posted a stupid comment longer then his own "re-open notice"
writting about the way he killed his blog...
I guess I read too much of Mary Higgins Clark's novels this summer... :P

Comment: The browser wars part II

As with the recommendation of some US security government to trash IE and the release of Firefox 1.0pr, all the magazines and relating sites started to write about alternative browsers like crazy. Funny, how come these guys suddenly started to recommend switching? It's like they are tolerating the lameness and unstableness of IE for years, and then all of the sudden, they finally "relized" that IE sucks. Come on does it really take you years to figure that out?

I have been using Netscape since it first came out, far before IE even started it's development, and never in my life have I switched to IE. I simply can't stand that slow, unstable, ugly and confusing thing from Microsoft. They even built IE into 98 to kill Netscape. What's more, Netscape(ver. 4.x) used to be very stable on 95, but on 98 it started to crash frequently, and I strongly suspect something dirty in 98 was done to make that happen.

But while IE continued to crash into the XP era, since ver.6, Netscape (now with a mozilla counterpart and a gecko rendering engine) seldom crashed on me. Netscape 7.x, no matter on 98 or XP, never, ever crashed in my face. And since IE is integrated into windows, it might be the only browser on this planet that will open security backdoors to your OS.

^a screenshot of Netscape 7.2 with "google bar" and "multizilla" extensions installed

Ironic as it is, after Microsoft unethicaly trashed Netscape years ago, now the offspring of Netscape, Mozilla Firefox is fighting back, geting all the attention and fame.

^a screenshot of Mozilla Firefox 0.9.2

(I'm not going to do any deeper coverage since you can read more then you need at any news stand or book store, or farther reading here)

Anyways, for a easier life(with tabbed browsing), less ads(ad blocking), less viruses, less worms, a safer computer and much more great reasons(if you are reading this with IE that is), please click on the links on the sidebar on your right and get a mozilla based browser for free right now!

P.S. Flash player doesn't come with Firefox(but it does come with Netsape), so you should get it your self at www.macromedia.com

熱量又高

那烤肉呢?
不錯阿
只是既費工
也不怎麼健康

好阿
文旦才是王道阿
好吃
多汁
甜又不會太甜
還有豐富維他命和纖維

文旦柚才是王道阿

Reval: 關於三菱汽車

有一則新聞我總覺得好像全世界只有台灣人沒知覺...
Mitsubishi Motors admits to further cover-ups
為何三菱有這些問題,
並嚴重到美國和日本沒人要買三菱
日本甚至連看到三菱的車都會怕
在臺灣的媒體卻把這則新聞淹沒在其他"不重要的新聞"中
三菱的車在這裡繼續暢銷...
好像把這裡的購車人當凱子一樣

就算對三菱的安全有信心的人
也應該知道一個快倒的公司售後服務沒保障吧!

Comentary: Let the media revolution began!

So, CBS admitted it's "misreport", thanks to a blogger.
This makes me think if I, as a blogger also, have the duty of picking out the media giant's wrong doings.
I am already long unsatisfied with the media, expecially when the TV news in Taiwan sucks like no other, constantly reporting boring stuff such as how "beautiful" some model is, how big is her brest; or praising comunist China as THE superpower of the 21st century; or asking the victims of some disaster stupid questions such as:"How do you feel?"...And much more garbage that makes our whole family ditch TV news more than 6 years ago. What's more, I'm recently ditching radio news because they suck, too. Now, since I've ditched TV and radio altogether, what can I say about the media?
Oh boy, if I can't critisize them, I can still boycott them. And maybe I would post something unreported that I noticed about the world we live in from time to time.
