In Excel 2003, if you press ALT key and left click on a cell, it will look up the content of that cell in dictionary for you. Very easy. Just realised that.
Below picture was taken on 13 March 2009. Firstly we were just feel abnormal that a police car was driven by a disabled person. Then we saw the policeman did some shopping in Woolworths, Campsie. A little bit curious that if a police car really has priviledge to park at disabled parking space without any special reason. As on that day, that police car just was used for shopping rather than special public service.

Canonical announced that Ubuntu 9.04 Desktop Edition is free to download from Thursday 23 April. Ubuntu 9.04 features OpenOffice.org 3.0, which gives users a complete office suite that is entirely compatible with Microsoft Office.
There is also a new notification system. It seems 9.04 is not a great leap from 8.10. There are three versions including netbook version.
P.S. During update from 8.10 to 9.04, I forgot to keep my old menu.lst, which includes boot from my XP. Currently I only got Ubuntu 9.04. Have to edit menu.lst to add it.Testing result of 9.04 was pretty good. At least all popular video format were recognised by 9.04.
26/04/2009 p.s. again. fixed menu.lst and my XP appeared again. I start to like Ubuntu very much now.
13/05/2009 p.s. more. got a bug which seems usual for old Asus P4800 motherboard. Invalid PBLK Length 5 etc. Do not know how to fix it. But it does not matter when boot up system. Found very useful Instant Messenger tool in Ubuntu 9.04, which combine QQ, MSN, Google Talk, ICQ, you name it. Amule and BT also my favourite tools.
Today when I logged into Gmail, I suddenly found that except inbox other link all use capital letter for the first letter (inbox instead of Inbox). See below.
After 1 day work, I found so many people now realised this annoying or interesting phenomenon. There is a thread in Google forum, there you will find that when you compose a new email, to and from also use lower case letter.( http://groups.google.com/group/Gmail-Help-Reading-Messages-en/browse_thread/thread/89ec2d34aa580d2d?pli=1 ) And someone even noticed that his/her Friends folder in Contacts now also turn to be friends, but Family etc still the same.
Solution for this: change your language settings from English UK to English US. Feel like this is kind of discrimination. People who noticed this issue will definitely ask why it is like this. Anyway…treat it like a April fool’s joke.
