I installed a plugins that would track users or visitors to this site couple days ago, and it’s pretty cool, it tells me where users coming from, I like the map style, it shows a dot and basically functionality is all I need, but in the back end with admin access, I can view their IP and which site or link they visit, for instant right now if you’re reading this post, it record that you visit this link and reading my post, just basic historical visit, nothing to be alarm with :), however there are chances that you’re using a proxy which my plugins will be able to tell your exactly location, you could by proxying from China but your exact location is USA, so it’s base on the IP yur computer map to, and some users might be using anonymous browsing so that’s like proxy, so cannot detect your real ip. Proxy is also a way for people who’s in countries that blocked facebook or other social media site to connect override the firewall, so they can access those sites.
Too many bots on my site
Well happy Ash Wednesday people, well if you’re a catholic and I believe Christian celebrate also, mass is required today and also eat vegetarian also required today. Well this morning I check my site, which is this one here, lopanchoi.com, yeah I know you like the domain hehehhe, and there are 4 bots on my site, what the hec is it doing? well I’m sure there are four different bots from different web crawling company such as – google, msn, yahoo, bing, and so on – I believe what they’re doing is crawling the website contents and puts it on its search engine, such as google. So that when someone search for something and it tied to my website, the search result will appear and user click on it. DO I have private information on my site? yes and no, yes but very mininal such as when I mention an events where a person’s name I don’t mention their exact name, there are also area where it’s private where you cannot read, it is secured or hidden cannot be read in public, only can be view by me and my ip, it’s extra security, so even if you know my admin password here, you still cannot read it unless it’s the ip# I’m capped at the server end 🙂
Ash Wednesday is tomorrow February 22nd 2012 for all catholic
Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday for all catholic, if you’re religious like me 🙂 Basically eat vegetarian food tomorrow, no sex, no cussing, hahahahah!!!! ok maybe that’s a bit too much, two things important: vegetarian and must go to church mass. I know for sure I can eat vegetarian tomorrow, going to church will be difficult due to the two kids, they’re big trouble maker, they will destroy the church ahahhaah! ok maybe not, but they are trouble maker, Dahlia and Nyla, wife Huyen will try to attend the church mass, at least one person from the family can attend. Huyen has been working and studying pretty hard lately trying to finish up her education degree. I believe in god although not being in church every Sunday consistently but I do pray and speak to god nightly, and every trouble I come across I believe god is there looking after me, and even if the trouble will cause me to probably loose my life, I’m ok with god’s decision, well it’s kind of award of talking about death 🙂 I have wife and kids to support, cannot died 🙂 I still want to have my own warehouse to experiment and test out all my toys and inventions, just like that kid in the kid’s movie Meet the Robinson. I still want to see my daughters grow up and see we explored planet Mars at least, and hope life does exist up there and still there, I want to know if human kind will ever be able to leave earth and gear toward space exploration 🙂
HD Tune Pro – hard drive testing utilities
I think this software “HD Tune Pro” hard drive testing utilities is a must for all computer geeks or IT people whom work on computer hard drive laptop desktop PC … it’s an awesome software to use to check computer hard drive health, it does a variety of test to determine the hard drive health, will it predict on when your hard drive will died? well find out for yourself :), it would be nice to have a notification from your harddrive saying that I’m dying, you have 1 day to back up my files :), this is natural harddrive dying, not cause by carelessness such as dropping the hard drive or laptop desktop computer on purpose 🙂
Gas price soar again compare to February 1st 2012 this year
The nation average gas price is $3.57 cent, highest is in California above $4 per gallon already for regular unleaded and it’s not even Summer driving season yet. Lucky whoever got the hybrid or electric car, you’re not only saving money but help the environment greatly. I would like a hybrid car also, knowing the fact that it’s not as fast as a gasoline car but has many benefit. 100% EV might be better, you can go to most mall and hook it up to charge for free 🙂 cool huh, instead of plug it into your own garage electricity. Most parking now have priority for EV car to hook up, and it’s like handicap where they can park close to the building entrance, awesome huh! 🙂 Getting back to the gas price rising problem, well we all know it flucuate quite a bit like stock, but it’s a little bit different, it doesn’t come down much but keep on raising, if you remember back years ago, let say in the 1990s gas price was like $1.25 nation average, look at it now, so even it flucuated but it kept on going up like gold :). Hooray! forever have hybrid vehicle.

Just connect back with long time online friend from Ohio AnhDo
Surprised earlier today received an email from an old friend back from old days online friends. He’s older but a very nice person to hang around, I did visit him at least couple one time while on business trip in Kentucky, I drove to PA to visit my g/f back then and stopped by his house, his cook good banh canh. Well his email was in regard to the latest vietnam human right expand trade something that required 60,000 signatures which it did read its goals a couple weeks ago and waiting for Obama administrator to review, there is no guranteed that Obama will take action, but it’s a good start and vietnamese communitites are united to take action. It was nice chit chat a little bit with him again, I’m cure sure everyone is busy, however it’s nice to say hi once in a while, in this case it’s almost like 4 years 🙂 heheheh
Emergency medical bill you have to pay?
I have a long time friend and we chat online all the time daily. He’s a cool person, this is the same guy will be heading to Vietnam in April to get married if everything go well. Over a month ago he got into an accident by himself lifting a haul connection to a car accidentally slipped and smashed his palm, some shattered bones and I saw the xray, look pretty bad, a few weeks later he received the medical bill, and thinking his medical insurance would cover. However yesterday he told me his medical not paying for the ER bill $1500 which doesn’t make much sense. Turns out that the doctor at the ER code his root cause was a car accident so his medical insurance company said since it involve a car they’re not paying for it. I was surprise, and he had a good point, a car accident involve a car hitting something or hitting another car, in this case since the doctor code it as car accident so this might trigger his medical insurance to not pay for it and ask him to contact his car insurance company, wow!!!! probably his mistake was having the doctor code it as car accident, should code something else like working in gagrage smashed hand :). Oh well, I hope that he can negociate and either have is medical insurance pay for it or his car insurance will. Because $1500 is quite a bit of money, can get an LED TV with it. I’m wondering if I’m driving and eating something with a fork and the fork stabbed me somewhere while driving and eating, then I go to ER and would they code this as car accident? weird!!! 🙂 oh well, gotta read the fine prints or higher a lawyers if it’s alot of money to pay 🙂
Nice weather today look like it
Well yesterday was president day, Dahlia had no school, and my company observed that day was a holiday, I didn’t know 🙂 so I workded 1/2 day. Today back to normal working day and schooling day and so on. Yesterday my wife got minor eye surgery to remove small dot or something from her eye, sounds painful but actually painless she got right to work and school afterward, it’s amazing what technology can do today compare with years ago medical technology! ouch!!!.
