It’s a great pity for those students left GDUT before the new library completed totally. Though we made many bad comments when that building’s design and equipments when it just finished construction. After two years we felt, GDUT library really changed a lot. That makes me so “envy” at the current students~

All I can say is you are so lucky and fortunate to have such a place to study. The boys of GDUT are not nerds at all, so there are many trysting places in the campus, including this library. And this place is the main target that I would show you.

As one of the Google service users in China, the most we don’t want to see is Google leaves from China. That means its services would blocked by GFW with no doubt. At that time, we have to access them by bypassing the “Wall”. But today, we have to be proud of the decision that Google made and support it. Cause Google is so brave and carry out its responsibility regardless of all its loss.

As we said, we can set up a secure Socket 5connection via SSH tool. Then we make our App. like browsers programs go through it. But,,, not all of the browsers support the Socket 5 proxy method. For example, the new generation Google web browser Chrome doesn’t support that.

So we have to make it through. First, the Chrome browser does support the common proxy way — Http proxy. And then, if we can “translate” the socket connection into the http connection, then it works!

The solution is to set up a http proxy in our localhost and let it do the job to help those App. to talk to the remote socket proxy. Then comes to the next tool we need, the Privoxy. Yep, we always use this software to help our Tor proxy services smarter. So we can also do it in this way:

Find the configure file of Privoxy : /etc/privoxy/config (in Ubuntu)
And add this line at the end of the file:

forward-socks5 / 127.0.0.1:7070 .

(don’t miss the “.” at the end of line, that make this route complete)

Easy to see that all the date transfer through the 7070 port will “translate” into the SSH socket 5 proxy service
Save and exit.

Restart the Privoxy :

sudo /etc/init.d/privoxy restart

(in Ubuntu)

And finished…. All you have to do next is to set up your browser’s proxy as http proxy: 127.0.0.1:7070

And BTW, the DNS pollution problem is still needed to be considered.

Happy X’mas~~~

Loker sang a very lovely song which make the primary school teacher fall in love with him in Lie to me S02E10. OK, handsome is one of the reason that Loker hunted her heart. But this song itself is so cute that I wanna to download this clip.

Though it’s said that this song’s lyric is written by a kid and seems very simple, it also very meaningful for all of us. A lie, no matter it is white or not, Lie is a Lie. But white lie may keep our life more smooth and warm. Because one of the reason why we give a white lie is we are care about the other. So this is a kind of love, I think.

The Big Bang Theory is a very hot TV series which has already released three seasons. I love this TV series not long before and spent almost a week to catch up the newest episode. And the first time I watch TBBT, its OP music is so charming. That make me always want to know what exactly they are singing and want to find out all the very words.

This cute MV is so funny that make me yell anther “WOW” .
After you watch it, maybe you have the same feeling~

I’d like to say “Google is an attitude”. (Of course, if you are used with Yahoo or Baidu, you can change the subject word.) In my opinion, the skill of searching information you want freely on line is one of the most important and most-have skills in the modern cyber world. And Google the information by yourself first is a kind of polite to others who wanna help you. No matter how much information you can get by your hands, that would show that you have tried it out and you don’t mean to disturb your friends really but have no choice.

Lu Xun advocates the Fetch-and-Take principle, said that we should learn the good things from other countries and use them to help our selves. But Fetch-and-Take is not Ask-and-take. Nowadays, more and more people are keen on being a Ask-and-take. They consider that the web is only a resource base to them, all they have to do is just stretch their hand and someone will hand over what they want. And the worse is that more and more children and teenage are joining the “Stretch Hand Party”. For example, in a English learning chat group, someone like to interrupt to ask what’s the meaning of one simple word that could find out in a on-line dictionary very simple. Or some newbie that even doesn’t know how to speak “Ubuntu” came to ask me some very simple Linux problems that posted on the top of many popular Linux forums.

SSH is a very popular tool for remote control under Unix and Linux System. And ssh command is included in most Unix/Linux OS shell by default.

SSH stands for “security Shell”, that’s to say it provides a security access to OS via a “SHELL” like interface. So before you wanna play SSH trick, you have to own a host as the remote host. Then we can use ssh to access our host safely and manage the machine just like you are in front of it(normally in TEXT mode, of course ). But there is another way to use SSH tool, let it make a “tunnel” for our applications in local host. That means our applications like browsers can connect to the remote host via encrypted messages and the remote host will help them communicate with the destination sites. The result is that our communications become safer and the GFW can’t block us anymore~

Let’s go to own a host first. Be careful, not all the host or VPS provide SSH access. Make sure you are going to own a host with SSH function! My friend tell me that host-blaster.com provide free VPS with SSH access, so I visited it and registered a VPS.

Then the second step is to make SSH to dig a tunnel for us.
Input such like command in our local shell terminal:

ssh -qTfnN -D 7070 yourname@yourname.host-blaster.com

Maybe you use the ssh command before, but those parameters would make you puzzled. Let’s make them clean first.

The Asian Sports Village is one of the most important projects of Asian Games construction. As the countdown in my blog’s sidebar shows, there are only about 360 days left for the opening of 16th Asian Games. And we must have several months for preparing and testing the “hardware” situation and also let the athletes get acquainted with this brand new town. Then there would be only half years left for this construction project. So how does the Asian Sports Village project process? Can it been finished well before the time comes up? That would be the problem we are concerned right now.

Today is a G’day. Tough it’s still quite chilly, but the sunshine is very nice~ I have a chance to go to Asian Sports Village for some reason about my work. So I also took a glance in passing.

Maybe these are the living area:
