Remember -- A-Mei

I just saw this mv by accident. Maybe it says the similar story I have been going through these months. I felt the tears stuck in my eye while I was watching, even before the song started. The voice-over before the song is very touching. For me, even if the date is really about to end, I would like to say thank you for all this. Let's enjoy the song.



記得 - 張惠妹

曲︰林俊傑
詞︰易家揚
編︰吳慶隆



*誰還記得是誰先說永遠的愛我
以前的一句話 是我們以後的傷口
過了太久 沒人記得當初那些溫柔
我和你手牽手 說要一起走到最後

我們都忘了 這條路走了多久
心中是清楚的有一天
有一天都會停的 讓時間說真話
雖然我也害怕 在天黑了以後
我們都不知道會不會有遺憾

重唱 *

我們都累了 卻沒辦法往回走
兩顆心都迷惑 怎麼說
怎麼說都沒有救 親愛的為什麼
也許你也不懂 兩個相愛的人
等著對方先說想分開的理由

誰還記得愛情開始變化的時候
我和你的眼中 看見了不同的天空
走的太遠 終於走到分岔路的路口
是不是你和我 要有兩個相反的夢

重唱 *

我和你手牽手 說要一起走到最後

Research Idea: the comparison of two long-term variables (2)

In the discussion of t-distribution idea of comparing two long-term variables

Dr. Chen raised a very constructive comment about this idea and suggested that the definition of the long-term exposure is kind of similar to the idea in the survey sampling, where the long-term exposure can be considered as the exact if the everyday measurement is available.

I did the wrong way to interpret the daily measurements within the long-term period to consider its annual mean variance is the variance of annual exposure. If the measurements are complete, the annual exposure should not have any variance in lieu of the mean variance.

The test should be to check if an random variable with mean and variance can be considered as the approximation of the exact value (z-test), where the null hypothesis is to see if the population mean and sample mean are the same.

Once the measurement is incomplete, I should consult with the sampling analysis to see how to use the incomplete sample to have a representative value and its corresponding variance.

A long-distance song (Hey there Delilah)

I saw this song in one of my friend's blog. It is touching as long as you have any experience like this. This song is for myself, my past, the one I love and for my dear friend who is being suffered in this kind of relationship.



PLAIN WHITE T'S LYRICS


"Hey There Delilah"

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

Yellow Book in South California (Food)

Staying in south CA for almost 2 years, today I just find this very interesting website for Taiwanese or Chinese people. The ChineseYellowPages provides very abundant information for life and entertainment. The most important, of course, is the restaurant info. You can find where to go by selecting the restaurant category, city, or even zip code.

Idea of future direction

The dynamic system is to describe the interaction of a series of linear differential equations, which can be used to discuss the behavior of disease transmission or the interaction within the human body.
The geostatists idea should be able to incorporate into the stoachstic part of these dynamic solutions. This dynamic solution can be solved by the representation as Lagevin equations (Colizza et al, 2007). The proposed way to incorporate geostatistics is to replace the pure random variable into spatial/spatiotemporal correlated random variables.
To familiarize this, I should do some study and focus on the the solution of compartment functions in biology or ecology(?).

A lesson

Today is not a special day, but I got a special experience with my auto sale. It was a good lesson to me.

Don't be risk ourselves to give any words without the 100% confidence. Otherwise, we can simply lose our credibility in a second.

This is not a devastating experience, but this is indeed a hard lesson and I have to remember it.

CDC Environmental Health Data

Here might be some valuable data for the environmental research

blog it

The next step

Few of the possible directions for me to pursue in the next few years. My weakness is the lack of the major domain knowledge other than hydrology, which is less and less unpopular in the field.
I have to pick one of the field to extend my career to stabilize the funding resources. I have to spend more time in Epid, such as spatial epidemiology and risk assessment, especially probability risk assessment to incorporate the environmental issues with human health or ecological concerns.
I do not know how far I can devote into. But I have to read a lot of books in this area in order to be familiar with the concerns of each domain knowledge to generate new research topics.
