Seattle - Narita served by All Nippon Airways 787 not flying at this point. ANA cancelled all the flights between Seattle and Narita, Japan.
I am lucky that I booked my flight on Delta not ANA. It is going to be full flight as ANA must relocate all booked passengers. ANA owns 17 787 Dreamliners and they have reallocated 787 with other plains but I guess they do not have anything to replace 787 flying between Seattle to Narita.
18 Years ago today, I got a call from one of my customers in Japan telling me that there was a big earthquake where near my parents lived. I called my home and got connected and talk to my folks for about 10 minuets. I was not able to communicate with them for next three days.
6,000+ people died from the earthquake and fire. There were more than 600 people died from the city where I came from. I arrived in Japan within one week and got to my parents house. There were still many aftershocks and there were no running gas or water. People are taking bath at the temporary hot bath setup by the defense army.
From this experience, Japanese government learned to accept the help from overseas. They did not accept anyone from overseas for help when this earthquake happened. But they did accept help from overseas when the Tohoku Earthquake and Tsumani happened.
Whether we like it or not, disaster happens. All we can do is to prepared and hope for the best.
Lunch with my patent attorney at Seattle Rainer Club. Yes, I finally have original patent paper filed and approved. This is my first patent. I ma asking my patent attorney to research another patent for me.
We have just released new HTML 5 clocks at http://www.clocklinl.com
Unlike Flash based Clocks HTML 5 clocks can be displayed on Apple iOS devices such as iPhone and iPad. In addition, Window 8 Metro browser has no issue displaying HTML 5 Clocks.
One of the most confusing things about Windows 8 is that it can run two types of application programs which can be accessed from same interface.
One is a traditonal Windows application and another is Metro application. For instance there are two versions of Internet Explorers on Windows 8. One that comes standard with Metro Interface is not the same version as you run from your desktop.
I guess metro applications are design as a Tablet or smartphone application. This makes Windows 8 very confusing and hard to adopt to.
To Access your Explorer ... Press Windows and E Key.
I found out how to capture and save screen to the file. To capture a creen on your computer, pressdown on Windows Key and presss PRNTSCR (Print Scree). This action captures the scren and save it to your Pictures under your Library.
