Highlight of the Day:
1. H-index:
The h-index is an index that attempts to measure both the productivity and impact of the published work of a scientist or scholar. The index is based on the set of the scientist's most cited papers and the number of citations that they have received in other publications.
A scientist has index h if h of his/her Np papers have at least h citations each, and the other (Np − h) papers have no more than h citations each.
It was so much fun to learn some insider view of science from time to time!
2. Blackstone Boulevard on eastside Providence was a nice but long walk.I wish we have a lake or mountains around for a stroll...
I learned H-index, and was also thinking about how to balance between being a good scientist and an effective social activitst...
3. SEED claimed itself as a rather high-level, extremely-strict-in-selection program. However, I have no doubt that after some hard-work, I could get it.
Just fight!
4. Three books I want to write in life -- I don't think I've ever told anyone about this "dream" before today.
But I may want to make it a claim or a story of mine since today?
5. Renew wishes after May!

So I want to figure out what 北岸（http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~northshore/） are doing, and how interesting their people are, when I get more time later this week.

For 思·路(I decide to name it "SeekingRoad" instead of "ThinkingRoad" in English).
Kind of new experience to me!

Preparing for new experiment & public speaking & Listening to Fish Leong
SO MANY "first times" TODAY!
One hour lost due to day-time saving...
Silk Road internet conference today. My task in the next week is to build up a recruit system. We have made a decision that this project will start around June 27 or 28.
Experiment almost ready! I have got some slots on SONA, and ready to run subjects!
I was going through the class materials from our EINT 2400. I found one feedback especially motivational:
"... I think you have the potential to be a very very good speaker. Have you seen TED Talks? If not, look in google for TED Talks. There are many talks from different people and they are very nice.
I really think that you have the potential to give a presentation of the style of TED talks, you are very good :)"
Interestingly, I was a TEDx speaker -- I made a speech in Chinese, of course. But I do have been practicing public speaking for a long time, even though I don't know when I'll get the chance to speak (something not only academic) in front of a large audience.
Thank you for your encouragement. I'll try to form a list of good TED talks to imitate and practice.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST:
I always thought that Fish Leong's lyrics of her love songs are too naive and too shallow (the melody is always good, though). For the first time in my life, I begin to understand them. I replayed Silk Road on my computer and on my mind once and again, and I become more confirmed that I have caught a "fever".

My heart beats so fast without a reason. I feel a little dizzy. It must be the result of several sips of wine in Friday dinner, although two days have passed ever since. I just know that! I know that I cannot drink even a sip at all...
