Samsung Mass Produce AMOLED in Advance to Meet the Needs of Smartphone

Samsung announced Tuesday that its new factory has put forward two months to mass produce AMOLED display to meet the increasing needs of Smartphone and Tablet.

Completed two months ahead of schedule, Samsung's 5.5 generation production line uses glass substrates which are three times larger than in the previous generation plant. This helps the company reduce the production costs and boost output. The factory's current capacity is 3 million screens per month, but it can reach 30 million at full capacity.

In the first season of 2011, Samsung ranked the first among the suppliers of AMOLED display worldwide with a supplement of nearly 99%.

Rumors also have said Apple’s iPhone 5 may adapt AMOLED display and the release date may be this September long time ago. Recently a new rumor says than the next iPhone will not be iPhone 5 but iPhone 4S and will show up on June 6 at the WWDC soon. So if we take the two pieces of news into consideration, we’ll find out that both rumors can be true.

Top 15 Graduation Songs for 2011 Graduation PowerPoint Slideshow

Times flies, it is June already. It seems that the New Years Day is yesterday but we are already passed half a year now. It is the time for the hot and dry summer, and also the graduation of students. Every year, millions of students will go through the graduation ceremony and enter a higher level. It is the time for departure and our hearts will be filled with all kinds of feelings.

To say goodbye to our teachers or classmates, usually we may create a graduation PowerPoint or graduation video slideshow to conclude our lives with each other and express our sincere emotions.

Here is a collection of really great graduation songs which will be perfect for graduation PowerPoint background music. If you too want to make a PowerPoint or video slideshow, this will be absolutely help to you.

Graduate by Third Eye Blind: Stephan Jenkins' fervent cry of "Can I graduate?"is sure to resonate with those who, in fact, can.

Sing by My Chemical Romance: This song is an anthemic call to raising your voice and being heard even when you face opposition. My Chemical Romance have created a great new song for helping celebrate a point in life in which self-identity is of utmost importance.

How Far We've Come by Matchbox Twenty: Go ahead, Class of 2010, look back with pride. Bask in your accomplishments over a sweet drum-and-acoustic-guitar backbeat. While "I believe the world is coming to an end" isn't necessarily a positive message, at least you graduated.

Firework by Katy Perry: Katy Perry's No 1 smash hit single is a clear call for positive self-esteem. It is a perfect upbeat song for graduation parties and ceremonies.

Good Riddance by Green Day: It never fails to amuse me that the quintessential graduation song was written as one last kiss-off to a bad relationship. Nevertheless, it still stands proudly in the pantheon of overplayed graduation songs.

Can’t Go Back Now by The Weepies: This song by the Weepies was featured in the film Adam. The underlying tone of the words is that moving forward can be scary due to the possibility of being alone. However, the song provides encouragement for the importance of taking those steps.

Closing Time by Semisonic: "Every new beginning comes from some other beginning' end." With that bit of pseudo-existentialism, Semisonic launches you on to the next phase of your lives. Fun fact: The drummer drums and plays the piano at the same time. Aspire to that same multitasking ability.



Don’t Look Back by Boston: Boston's rousing pop-rock anthem from the 1970s is still a powerful song for helping celebrate the "new day breakin'" that is represented by graduation.

Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield: Bless you, Natasha, for reminding us of the limitless opportunities of the future. This might be the most upbeat song of all time, and I'll be damned if it doesn't make you hopeful.


Graduation Song by Vitamin C: Awkward confession time: I cry every time I hear this song. It's the ultimate in clichéd graduation songs, but somehow it still affects each of us. Because "as we go on, we remember all the times we had together. And as our lives change, come whatever, we will still be friends forever."
(Another song with the same name "Graduation Song" by Amy Diamond is perfect,too. It is gentle, sweet and encouraging.)

Graduation Day by The Beach Boys: This Beach Boys song is somewhat rare. However, it is well worth hearing and adding to the mix of songs played at the time of graduation.

Pomp & Circumstance: There's something to be said for literalism. Everyone's favorite march is about to be trotted out once again.

Suddenly I See by KT Tunstall: KT Tunstall wrote this song about a specific person she found inspirational. However, it easily conveys the general importance of mentors and role models in life. Graduation is a perfect time for this reminder.

100 Years by Five For Fighting: Everyone's favorite sappy recounting of times past, with a vaguely sinister undertone reminding us of our own mortality.

Times Like These by Foo Fighters: One of the more palatable overplayed graduation songs. There's something strangely comforting about Dave Grohl's vocals, and between the album and acoustic versions, you've got enough material to last through high school and college! (Grad school is another story.

Wonderwall by Oasis: This song isn't actually about graduating—in fact, I don't know exactly what it's about—but somehow it winds up on every playlist and in every photo montage. After all, you will be my wonderwall, won't you?

Besides, for more Graduation Songs, definitely you cannot miss this article:

How to Make Professional PowerPoint with Correct Fraction

Do you know how to correctly type in fractions in PowerPoint? Just imagine when you are going to give a presentation to your boss, and you have to deal with some number computing. For example when you want to calculate the increase rate of this season’s sale, like below:

If you can show your boss this way, I’m sure it will be much better than:

                            (1563.75-1439.34)/1439.34x100%=8.64%

Do you think so? Obviously the first one seems much more professional. Then how to type in the fraction like that? Let’s take PowerPoint 2007 as example to show the step by step tutorial.

Step 1: Open PowerPoint 2007 and click “Insert” on the ribbon, choose “Object” below.

Step 2: A window will pop up, choose “Microsoft Equations 3.0” and click “OK”.

Step 3: In the coming up “Equation Editor” window, find "Fraction and radical templates", it should be the second one on the second row.

Step 4: Then choose from these elements and fill in the number, like below:

Step 5: Now you can copy and paste this to PowerPoint slide.

Hope this simple skill will help you with your work or study! Besides, you can also convert PowerPoint to video for viewing on portable devices like iPhone, iPad or sending to your business partner with no worry about the PowerPoint versions.

Review of Kung Fu Panda 2: From a Chinese Eye

Have you guys watched the Kung Fu Panda 2? It has released in US on May 26, 2011.

The first film Kung Fu Panda was debuted to $60.2 million in June 2008. And Producers have a big ambition of $65 to $70 million for Kung Fu Panda 2 this year. However, right till now, it seems not too optimistic for them.One of the reasons, according to one analyst is that the students are still in the class. But in my opinion, many people are waiting for the time to watch it on iPhone 4, iPad 2, Motorola Xoom or Galaxy Tab, etc. to save time and money for the depression of the economy.

The story is like this: Po is living his dream as the dragon warrior and protecting the Valley of Peace alongside his friends and fellow kung fu master include Tigress, Crane, Mantis, Viper and Monkey. Po’s life of awesomeness is threatened by the emergence of a formidable villain, who plans to use secret unstoppable weapon to conquer China and destroy kung fu.

Po and the ‘furious five’ will travel across China to face the threat and vanquish it. The questions that how can Po stop a weapon that can stop kung fu and how he unlocks the strength he needs to succeed can be answered on the big screen only.

(When I say Kung Fu Panda in the following text, it refers to both Kung Fu Panda and Kung Fu Panda 2)

As a Chinese, it makes me feel complex when watching this Kung Fu Panda film. And as I know, a lot of people, especially the educated ones, have the same opinion as me. Should we feel proud that the American people are accepting the Chinese way of thinking for what we can see in Kung Fu Panda? Or should we feel ashamed that we cannot produce such a wonderful film if even we have long taken Panda as a national treasure?

However, we can still see that the so called Chinese factors in this movie are far more American than Chinese. First, the character of the Panda Po is different. Maybe the only similarity is that Po is fat. But just like the Panda in Warcraft III, Americans have given the Panda new skills and new characters. While in Chinese culture, what can a Panda do? Nothing! The Pandas in China have difficulty reproduce naturally and they are under entire care of the human beings. We Chinese have never imagined (or dreamed) such animals can save the world!

Besides, the philosophy in Kung Fu Panda is American with a Chinese coat. The dialogue in the movie seems so Chinese for many of them are translated from the ancient Chinese philosophy books. But under this guise, it is actually the American philosophy! To save the world has long been an American way of thinking which we may find in so many Hollywood movies that we don’t need to find examples. In Chinese culture, no one is thinking about the world will be destroyed one day and there will be a super hero to save the world. May be it is due to the religious reason for the most import 3 religion in China (Buddhism, Confucianism, Taoism) have no such saying as end of world or judgment day. Though Islam has, but it is minority compare to the majority Chinese people.

Finally, "distroy the Kung Fu" is ridiculous. The villain in Kung Fu Panda wants to conquer China. Possible! He wants to destroy Kung Fu. Totally nonsense! The American people may not know Chinese people enough at this point. Anyone who has read some Chinese Kung Fu novels or watched some Chinese Kung Fu films will find out that the utmost desire for a person is to become the first of the world (conquer China), but he will not even think of destroying Kung Fu. Most of times he will try his best to find a student to inherit his Kung Fu. And if he cannot find a talented one, he will die with regret!

These are some of feelings about Kung Fu Panda, from the Chinese way of thinking. Anyway, Kung Fu Panda 2 is a good movie and I am looking forward to watching it.

How to add YouTube video to PowerPoint?

I usually spend much time on Internet, partly because of my work, partly because of my interest.

I always enjoy the time watching International news, economic commitment, Linux forum, video sharing websites and Q&A websites. It is a pleasure to help others by telling them what you know about. On Internet, all of us are equal to each other. Many of the people are quite kind hearted. Without them, the world will be much more difficult for us. One of the most important examples is the Q&A websites.

Whenever I face some difficulties, I tend to try to find the answer myself. But many times, I can’t. So what will you do in this case? Yeh! Most of you may say “Google” it. But you know Google is just a search engine, it is just like the menu of a book. The real content of the book is on separate websites. Some of the answers are on Q&A sites, like Yahoo Answer; answers on Yahoo tend to be easy to understand. But for some professional questions, you’ll need to go to the forums. When I was learning Linux, I attended several Linux forums to search for answers.

On Yahoo Answer, I always see some people ask about how to add YouTube video to PowerPoint, because I am interested in PowerPoint and video sharing stuff. One of the things that I feel disappointed is that people are getting lazier and lazier, physically and mentally. When they have a question, they just Google it or ask on Yahoo Answer, they don’t want to fix it themselves. The worse is that they even don’t want to Google for answers. Ask the same question on Yahoo Answer for thousands of time.

For the question above, you can easily find the answer; all you need to do is search for a bit more. Basically, when you want to add a YouTube video to PowerPoint, you need to think in this order:

• 1. What are YouTube and PowerPoint?
• 2. What is the format of the YouTube video? What video formats PowerPoint support?
• 3. How can we download YouTube videos?
• 4. If the YouTube video format is not supported by PowerPoint, what to do?
• 5. What are the steps of inserting video to PowerPoint?

For the upper questions, I think many people are not sure about the video format and YouTube video download stuff.

1. How to download YouTube videos? Personally I love to use Firefox. There are quite a lot of add-ons for help. If you are not using Firefox, you can use YouTube Downloader.

2. The downloaded YouTube may be MP4 or FLV format. As I know, PowerPoint 2003&2007 don’t support MP4 (PowerPoint 2010 can), so you’ll need some video converter to change the video format. I suggest you convert MP4 to WMV, a video format brought out by Microsoft.

3. Then, you can add the YouTube video to your PowerPoint.

• Step 1: On the Insert tab, point to Movies and Sounds, and then click Movie from File.
• Step 2: Click the video you want to use and then click OK.
• Step 3: After you click OK, you' are promoted with a message asking how you want the movie to start in the slide show. I recommend you choosing "Automatically "even if you want the movie to play when clicked.

At the top of the incredible new crop (Alisa Frolkina, Anastasia Kuznetsova, Arizona...and of course of redhead love Tessa Williams) recently added on Next NY's board, Kelsey already made some nice debuts in f/w 08-09. Castings known to be selective and quite daring sometimes: Brian Reyes or - a favorite of ours - Jeremy Laing. Count on Kelsey's natural beauty and easy attitude. She's very Next: very now and ready for a bright future. Exactly fitting this vibe we talked about in our previous article just called... "Generation Next". Here is the next generation. Just meet Kelsey !

Let's say this is the next round of our wish-list for NY shows to come. Again, we still don't have any info regarding Next package and their website is still under construction. But we've selected some promising faces all over the last months. We've already introduced girls like Arizona, Marta, Alisa or our flame-haired beauty Anna Arendshorst, we'll take a closer look to the other ones we love right now. First there is Alek, huge favorite since last season and currently in both Biba and Elle Italia. Hanna and Kasia are there for quite a while but still look so fresh that we can't resist to post them here as well. Maybe their moment is sooner than ever now, maybe we'll have to wait. Maybe and maybe and maybe all over again. It's time for hopes, expectations, dreams. Let's keep castings reality for next week and pick up the one we'd like to see first. This being said we believe in their potential and if all the ingredients are up for the shows, we will easily bet on them. Cool Pinkie has her place in the wish-list as well and we'd love to add Nanou too but keep her for a "Nanou-special" to come soon ! So, the bonus of the list will be Anastasia. Strawberry-blond sensation with that little look that just makes us melt... she's our absolute favorite at Next !

She may share her name with one of the most famous black model in the world (Alek Wek) but doesn't share much more with Alek Alexeyeva. Excepted maybe that they're both extremely talented. And as we've just written a few lines about Wound magazine regarding a story by Peter Zownir, as he also shot her, we thought it was the right timing for her. One of the cutest faces of the season and a dramatic sight in front of the camera are the most obvious credential of this young girl signed with Next...

According to sources, BBC chiefs are finalising the small print on her contract and the deal could be announced today.

Apparently, the show's bosses are squeezing out Philips from the show, but the BBC has refused to confirm reports that it has ended its contract with the 66-year-old choreographer.

However, insiders have said that the bosses feel that 30-year-old Dixon is the right person to boost the show's appeal to younger viewers
Alesha DixonLondon, Apr 1 : British singer Alesha Dixon is all set to make a world record of the largest number of backing dancers in a performance.

The 2007 Strictly Come Dancing winner will be singing her new track `Let's Get Excited' on Sky1's Guinness World Records Smashed event, reports The Sun.

Other celebrities facing challenges include 2008 I'm A Celebrity winner Joe Swash and 2007 Dancing On Ice champion Kyran Bracken.

Let’s be honest, Beth Ditto is an unlikely style icon but it seems the size 20 singer is rewriting the rule book.

Right now, the 28-year-old is riding high. She’s naked on the cover of uber-trendy mag Love and has just returned from the Paris fashion shows, where she was a front-row fixture.

On the last night she sang at the Fendi O concert watched by new best mate Kate Moss and fashion king Karl Lagerfeld.

Karl couldn’t get enough of her. “I love her energy,” he said. “She is the opposite of everything in fashion now – she is an extreme beauty.”

Really, Karl? Only a few years ago he didn’t want to design a range for H&M in anything bigger than a size 14, saying he only wanted

to design for “slender and slim people”.
