Posted on: The Sherpas Story with Mark Secchia
September 8, 2009 at 6:17 AMI really like the China entrepreneurial focus on Jenny's shows.
Mark's story is interesting to hear for me since I am someone who plans to relocate to Shanghai in the near future and try something there. I would have to agree with Mark's comment about avoiding the temptations there that can make one lose focus.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but for the Chinese restaurants that didn't want to participate, couldn't Sherpas simply "steal menus" from a variety of restaurants and post them on their website? Customers order what they want and Sherpas makes the call to the restaurant, picks up the food and delivers it. An extra charge is added onto the total price of the order.

September 1, 2009 at 5:37 AMFinally! Glad I found this particular lesson. I've always been wondering why some 3rd tone characters suddenly sound like 2nd tone characters when combined with other 3rd tone characters. Now I know.

August 26, 2009 at 8:07 PMI can easily run more than one application at a time on the iPhone and pretty much taylor my phone the way I want it to be. It's called jailbreaking. It's a must because it opens the potential of the phone.

当然苹果手机是最好的。苹果是完全创新革命性的。不像别的手机公司只是一味模仿

August 21, 2009 at 3:30 AM我最近少吃点肉，因为像Pete说的理由, 又为了我的健康，不要杀动物，肉有点肮脏（特别是猪肉 - 有什么寄生生物).
可能Pete听过这个故事 by Ajahn Brahmavamso:

August 21, 2009 at 2:32 AMHi Jenny, it seems you heard correctly. I'm not familiar with Taiwan, but according to this site: http://wapedia.mobi/en/Taiwanese_Mandarin
土豆 = peanut (in Taiwan)
马铃薯 = potato

August 20, 2009 at 3:36 AMHi alexyzye, there was also an earthquake that hit Taiwan and some islands around it so that could have contributed to the problem.
Here's also a link to the map of the world's undersea cables:

(not my site - found through google image search)
I've read before that most of our internet connection goes through these undersea cables. I was surprised since I've always thought our connection was done through satellite.
