World of Leion

The trailer or rather the teaser catches my eye.

I went into the cinema without knowing what the show is going to be like. I just like the singing penguins. Especially that those small cute one who sing Mexico.

The story is about a tribe of penguins who sing to attract their mates but one of them, Mumble was not able to sing. He has talent in his feet instead. He could dance. He was out-casted for being vocally inclined. Nonetheless, he become the hero by influencing the humans not to hunt for their food. The story at the back is a bit far fetched. He swim all the way to some beach and was put in a zoo but was still able to get back to his penguin land. 

Here is a nice clip introduced by Mich. Nice twist at the end.

Nice video. Seen at Summer's house

When I was young, there was a famous video game. You are a hunter and you shoot ducks with a gun.

I have always wondered how it works. I finally find out today, after more than 15 years.

“Here’s what happens. You shoot at a duck, which appears on an ordinary TV screen. The gun is connected to the game console; pressing the trigger blackens the screen, then causes a duck-shaped white target to appear momentarily. If your aim is true, a photo sensor in the gun detects the shift from dark to light, and bingo–dead duck. In short, the TV emits the light pulse and the gun detects it, not the other way around.” – Source

This is very fascinatin. I great fact to know.

Finally get a call from them. It was another 2 months' wait.

I went over to the medical center today. Seem there is some small problem in my ECG readings and I was asked to go for a more through check at NUH.  I wonder what's in store for me. Maybe another 2 months' wait after that.

They should have taught me this when I was in school! (continue reading…)
