 shoes

Jogging is probably the oldest sport in the world. It is cheap, it is easy, it is fun. You don’t have to use a costume, or special outfit, just regular t-shirt and short will do. My favorite jog is just walking for 4 kilometers or so, not too far.

What do we have to prepare before jogging? Like I said nothing special. A short, t-shirt, some water will do, and don’t forget a nice decent pair or running shoes. A good running shoes is a comfort, light, stylish, and of course strong material.

Strong material is vital for a running shoe cause durability is so important, you use the same pair of running shoes for years to come. I use to have a cheap shoes in my old days, I love that shoes I wear it till its sole runs out. Many stories behind the jogging and running shoes, flirting a girl, or just silly accidents. Those are great moments, how about you? Do you have a good memory with your running shoes?

There is no conspiracy. Just simple basic economic law. People number grow, oils don’t. So then again the oil prise climbing because the demand is rising too.

More people suffer due the increasing oil price. Well some people don’t. They become richer, wealthier, and more powerful than ever. What happen when there is no more oil in the market? I don’t know, never have been there, and I hope I will never have to. Is the rising price bugging me? Of course it does. But I don’t want it to ruin my day.

There is a strike on my city today. The drivers of public transport refuse to serve their service to the people. For me, this is not good. This can bring us the image of some problems.

One problem is that some people like those drivers are not happy with the oil price. One, they have to rise their collect fee from the passenger. Two, they are running without no guarantee of daily or any income. Three, they will loose customers merely due to buying motorcycles now cheaper than going on public transport.

This is not good. People are unrest. I know that the government can’t do anything with the supply and demand condition especially on international level but at least please try to keep the people happy. I am not an expert but I can tell, making people not happy while on the other hand some people living so well, so rich and prosperous, what is wrong with you man?

I have found this question on yahoo! answers. The question of course is load with ambiguity. What is free on deviantart? The user account? Or the images and artworks in it?

The basic account of deviantart is free. But you can upgrade your account (like mine), to a subscribed membership and pay some small amount of money to get upgraded facility. You can have more advanced features of deviantart using this subscribed membership. Some of the features is banner free (makes faster loading), thumbnailed deviation preview (this feature is really helpful), custom css on your deviantart journal (to impress the girls), and I suppose many more.

What about the artworks then? Well on default settings, the artworks is protected with common use license. I don’t know what the hell would that means. But If I am guessing right, it could means that maybe the creator of that artwork wouldn’t mind if you use their artwork for desktop background or have fun with it but don’t get it wrong. You can’t just upload them to your website and claim it as your own. This happens a lot and making the real artist real concern. This is called the art ripping.

I join the deviantart since november 2006, met a lot of great people there.
