Farewell MJ

The morning got off to a bad start. The website was down as the MySQL server had caught H1N1 I guess. Then the depressing news that Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, has passed on. We don’t know the exact cause of death as a post-mortem has not yet been done.
I don’t want to say too much so I’ll just post this video of my favourite song performed by MJ

Heal The World
Make It A Better Place
For You And For Me
And The Entire Human Race
There Are People Dying
If You Care Enough

So true, MJ. RIP.

Congratulations and the winners will be receiving an email from me shortly containing the genuine Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 license key valid for 1 year. Do check your spam/junk folder as well if you do not hear from me after a day.

In an unrelated matter, I got many comments and email asking me about my honeymoon but the truth is me and my wife haven’t gone for it yet. We’re waiting for the MATTA fair (a travel fair) and see if we can get any good deals such as cheaper flight tickets and hotels.

We are planning to go Europe and the main countries that we’d like to visit are Greece, Italy, Germany, France, Switzerland and Netherlands (perhaps a few more if we have time). I’ve started to do a little research and found out that everything such as local tour guide, Europe Rail, hotels and etc is quite costly. If you are a local in any of the countries I listed above, please share with me the must see places and food that we must try. If you’re toured Europe before, I am sure you know a tip or two on how to save money. Do share it with us!

Water Taxi for Penang?

Transport Minister Datuk Seri Ong Tee Keat have announce that PPC Chairwoman Ms Tan Cheng Liang have propose for Water Taxi to ease congestion on Penang Island with potential stops at Butterworth, Weld Quay, Tanjung Tokong, Batu Ferringhi , according to what i read in The Star On line today.

This is good news indeed. Having stayed in Venice for a couple of days some 20+ years back, and having use Venice Water bus, to get around the city, this two in one suggestion (Less traffic congestion and it should become a icon and “a must do” for Penang Tourists) is a good one.

Imagine going down town from Batu Ferringi where most of the hotels are, via the water taxi, It will be a unique ride, a unique memory if it become reality. I hope to see it soon. More stops will be required and make it possible to travel a round the island as well.

In fact make it possible to take a water taxi from the Penang airport, or the Penang railway station directly to the hotels. Or for me from my Home in Tanjung Bungah, take a water taxi to Queensbay mall for some shopping. Make it happen, fast!

Farewell Micheal Jackson, Farewell Farrah Fawcett

News of death is something unpleasant to wake up to, more so when it is two deaths in one morning. I was still in bed when Wuan got back from Pudu market and told me that the cab driver told her Micheal Jackson is dead. The King of Pop is dead? What tragic news. I got up and searched for news of his death. Indeed, Michael Jackson had died of cardiac arrest at age fifty. The television is on. CNN is continuously running news on this. My eyes were wet as I watched on television and read tributes to Micheal Jackson.

And then I read that Farrah Fawcett is also dead at 62 today after a long battle with anal cancer. This cannot be a good beginning to a sunny morning. The faceless voice saying “Good morning Angels” kept playing in my head. While I remember her as one of the Charlie’s Angels, the poster of her in a skimpy red swimsuit is forever etched in my mind. Red swimsuit, flowing wavy blonde hair, that wispy smile - it was so sinful to the teenage in me.

The deaths of two icons of my formative years made me feel really old suddenly. The zombie of Thriller and the person who popularized the crotch grabbing dance move is dead? The one Angel that made teenage hormones hit the roof is dead? Those facts are hard to made sense of for now. This loss is coupled by the realization that things of my generation are slowly heading towards the sunset one by one. That makes me feel so vulnerable. Good bye Moonwalker. Good bye Jill Munroe.

Influenza A(H1N1)

Liow says it’s A(H1N1), Rais tells media to say ‘swine flu’

KUALA LUMPUR, June 25 – Shortly after Health Minister Liow Tiong Lai urged the media to use the term Influenza A(H1N1) as recommended by the the World Health Organisation, Information Communication and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Dr Rais Yatim said all media should return to using “swine flu” instead. [......]

WHO is non significant to our Information and Culture Minister. Many countries around the World are using standard term Influenza A(H1N1), however, our Information trying to be outstanding from the others? This is science. It is based on facts and evidences.

I fully agree with SK that made Health Minister Liow Tiong Lai looks stupid by his colleague. This is Science, a matter life and death. Don’t use this to gain your political support. Don’t make the society confuse more by adding yours own non-scientific opinion.

Transformers In Malaysia

While browsing through the photo album in my laptop, I came across a few images that I took recently and thought “Hey, we have Transformers right here in Malaysia too.” These are not vehicles that transform into battle-hardened robots with consciousness. These are not robots that shoots missiles and bullets. On the contrary, they work in construction sites to collectively erect high-rise concrete structures. They are the workhorses of the construction industry. They are the transformers of Malaysia’s urbanscapes.

These images were taken from Level 1 in Cineleisure facing the Surian Tower car park annex at Mutiara Damansara. The deftness with which the operators handled these mega rigs fascinated me. From my vantage point, I watched how these huge and seemingly clunky machines were manipulated with precision. As I watched, I also wondered how thousands of years before these machines were invented, were humans able to build enormous structures such as the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Great Wall of China.

Sorry Not Too Late, Happy Father’s Day

Dad, I despise you and your expectation with all my might.

To you, being no 2 in class is not good enough. I have to be numero uno. Failing to do so, will end up being caned. To date, I lost count on how many lashes landed on my body.

To you, secondary at boarding school means a lot. I was more of mom’s boy and I prefer to stay at home. But you expect me to be independent. I did, just so you’d acknowledge my bravery. But you didn’t.

To you, not playing sports is equal to a faggot. So I played hockey, but it meant nothing to you. I took on rugby and played at state level, just so you’d acknowledge my manhood. But you didn’t.

To you, architecture is a slow evolving industry and engineering is far superior. I’ve always wanted to be an architect, since I was 5. So I ditched my passion and pursued your path, hoping for you to see that I am an obedient son. But you didn’t.

Everything I do, I could never meet your expectations. Even if I did, you never gave me a pat on the back and say “Well done son”. It was all that I longed for.

Time and time, you humiliated me in public with your sarcastic low blow remarks. You wanted people to see how close we are. I swallowed my pride and laugh, although deep down I’m torn to pieces.

But what I failed to see, was, all this while, you worked very hard, not for yourself, but for me to inherit your virtues. For me to have a better future. For me to be tough enough to face the world. Being a perfectionist, you wanted the best, that includes your sons.

So Dad, this is my humble apology. I am sorry.

I’m sorry for being mad at you for all my life. I know, it’s not my place to be angry at a person who paved gold roads for me. You’d rather be hated than see me crash and burn, such a selfless act. Now I understand what those expectations were there for.

Thank you and Happy Belated Father’s Day.

If it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t be on my way to become a Kick Ass Web Developer.

ps: I hope my dad doesn’t read this!

pss: Thank you Hana, for knocking some senses. Have a safe trip back to Eire. Thank you Bong, for your youtube mellow genre. Thank you Aween, for listening.

现在听得最多的还是人家要买我们的球员,一时Alonso啦,一时Mascherano啦,连 Arbelao皇马都想买,谣言满天飞,也不懂信不信好。但我觉得利物浦现在需要的不是卖人啊,上季基本上队里的骨干都有了,只是板凳不够深,最缺的应该是一个接近Torres水平的射脚拍档。传了很久的David Villa现在很可能也不是我们负担得起的货色,皇马切尔西曼联这些大爷们都有大把银子在手。唉,利物浦真的太寒酸了。可能就像往常一样,就是传传传,我们等等等,最后就是得个吉,啥大碗都没签到。

Official Windows 7 Prices

Announced today, the official pricing of Windows 7 is as follows:

Retail

  • Home Premium $199.99
  • Professional $299.99
  • Ultimate $319.99

Upgrade Packages

  • Home Premium $119.99
  • Professional $199.99
  • Ultimate $219.99

Courtesy Wikipedia

In other words, $120, $200, and $220 respectively. Before you get excited about the lower prices (when compared to Vista), remember that only 1% actually buy retail OS copies. The rest download bootleg copies from torrent sites get the OS when they buy a new computer.

Still, it’s great seeing Microsoft slashing their flagship product prices a bit. Maybe we’ll see less people call the company “M$” on online forums.

Some bad news for Windows XP users though: Windows 7 will insist on a clean install, allowing no upgrades. Any Windows 7 upgrade package will work with XP though, checking first if the XP installation is legit before installing itself onto the same partition as XP.

One more thing to keep in mind: upgrading to Windows 7 from a higher edition of Vista will also require a clean install, as in the case of a Vista Ultimate user wanting to install Windows 7 Home Premium.

swine flu symptoms

Poor Mexico! It’s not exactly the first name that poips into mind for a restive holiday and now this! The country will forever be known as the one that gave the world Swine flu.

I’m aware the threat of this flu is no laughing matter, but when you think about it more people die on the roads, either driving or just trying to get across the street, than from this virus alone.

Pandemics come, and pandemics will go. If it’s not Nipah virus, it’s SARs. If it’s not SARs, it’s A(H1N1). We’ve had mad cow disease, chicken pox… poor animals, they’re getting really lousy PR.

At the end of the day, the swine flu is not that different from the common flu. So why the panic and paranoia? So it’s gone global.

My mother is stuck, I don’t have to be.

Mom met the family GP this evening to top up on her high blood pressure medication. While our GP, Dr. Soo, took her pulse by the wrist, I couldn’t stop laughing. The GP must have thought I found him funny.

You see, the GP has been seeing my mother for her complains of rapid heartbeats for years. But as fluent as he was in medicine, the doctor could not advise my mother in the most effective way.

Mom, if you don’t yell so much, you will see doctor less frequently!

The effects of my father’s brain haemorrhage years ago must have been exhilarating for my sixty year old mother. While other sufferers lose the use of a limb or become paralyzed half of their body, my father recovered very well physically. But the damages exist, and they are very insiduous. The damages affect his reasoning, emotional regulation, temperament, and personality. He lacks real empathy for others and higher executive functionings that govern our ability to feel responsible.

So for years, my father looked very normal and made people treat him as normal. Eventually, the psychological problems I mentioned above would manifest into unacceptable behaviors that bewilder people who come into contact with him. But since he seemed like a very normal person over the next twenty years, it’s really hard for the average person to understand and forgive him for the things he said and did.

As his daughter, I was emotionally affected because I lost the ideal father figure I was born to, at an age when I needed him most. But just like any child, I eventually grew up and learned to separate myself from my parents, develop my own identity, and direct my own life.

My mother on the other hand, is stuck.

Sometimes mom tends to be unreasonable, we all do. I used to respond to her with equally unreasonable behaviors, like trying to drown out her yells. But ever since I became deaf and have the option of switching off my hearing aid, I no longer have to hear anything that upsets me.

Deafness is a blessing in disguise. Unfortunately for my mother, she does not have this luxury.

Nokia N97 Up-Close First Impressions

Finally getting a to play with the Nokia N97, here are some first impressions:

  • The N97 is very similar in size to the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic in terms of thickness and width, and slightly longer. Will cause pocket bulge but is still impressive for a flagship.
  • Compared to the N96 and N95, the N97 is more responsive. Still a bit slow though, especially when trying to run apps that use connectivity a lot (Maybe using a phone under better 3G or 3.5G coverage will provide better results?
  • The sliding mechanism of the N97 is very solid and feels well made. A ribbon cable connects the upper part of the phone to the rest of the device. Very inaccessible, but this is a worrying vulnerability—cut the cable, goodbye phone?
  • The QWERTY keyboard feels a bit flat. Maybe the next model should take a cue from the E-series keyboard and use slightly rounded keys?
  • Why drop the plectrum/guitar key, used as the stylus for the 5800, and replace it with a detachable pen? Detachable = easily lost.

That’s all I’ve got now. A full review to follow when possible. For now, pics! (Click them thumbnails for the full-size editions)

Official Kaspersky 2010 v9.0.0.459 is Out + 25 License Keys Giveaway



After posting a tip yesterday on how to install Kaspersky Security Suite CBE 2009 which is exactly the same as Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 except that it is rebranded and uses German language, today Kaspersky has officially announced the release of the latest Kaspersky 2010 which uses engine v9. Although I am a big Kaspersky fan, I did not test the BETA version of Kaspersky 2010 until today. I never liked to use beta version of Windows patches or security software because it is possible that it will compromise the stability of my computer.
Kaspersky 2010 key
Here are some important information before I get to the review of the application. If you are a Kaspersky user that is using an older version of Kaspersky, good news is you’re eligible to update to the latest Kaspersky 2010 version for FREE as long as you have a valid license for previous Kaspersky v7 or 2009. The FAQ page did also mention that Kaspersky 2010 is incompatible with Windows 7. When Windows 7 has been officially released, it will be made compatible then. I also have 25 Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 license key to be given away!

First of all, you’ll notice a change in the interface on Kaspersky 2010. A new approach to the protection management called My Protection has been implemented. Computer protection is ensured in three different directions: user’s files and personal data, operating system objects and applications installed on the computer, and network activity.

Kaspersky 2010 key

New and improved features in Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010

  • NEW Kaspersky Toolbar for Internet browsers to warn you about infected or unsafe websites
  • NEW special Game Mode to suspend alerts, updates and scans while you play
  • IMPROVED basic identity theft protection, including improved secure Virtual Keyboard
  • IMPROVED Urgent Detection System to stop fast emerging threats
  • IMPROVED next generation proactive protection from zero-day attacks and unknown threats
  • New and improved features in Kaspersky Internet Security 2010. Includes all the above plus:

  • NEW Unique Safe Run Mode for questionable applications and websites
  • IMPROVED Security Application Monitor to give you full picture on programs installed on your PC
  • IMPROVED Identity Information Controller to give valuable data an extra layer of protection
  • IMPROVED Advanced identity theft protection, including improved secure Virtual Keyboard
  • Kaspersky has finally implemented a gaming mode which allows you to run full screen games without slowing down your gaming experience and getting notification on what to do if it has found a threat. However this gaming profile must be enabled in Settings in order for this feature to take effect. After enabling gaming profile, the profile will automatically take effect whenever Kaspersky detects a full screen program running
    Kaspersky 2010 Gaming mode

    Like many other antivirus such as AVG and Norton, Kaspersky too has its own toolbar for Internet Explorer and Firefox plug-in that compares web addresses and other URLs against a database of suspicious and phishing websites to warn you about infected or unsafe websites.

    Another new feature which can only be found in Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 is the sandbox feature. It allows you to run questionable applications and websites while keeping your computer safe even if it is dangerous.

    The memory usage for Kaspersky 2010 is slightly higher compared to 2009. I am seeing a total memory usage of 15-20MB for KAV 2010 after using the computer for a few hours. As for CPU usage, I did notice very high spikes when running a full scan especially when it is scanning files inside archives. During normal real-time protection, the CPU usage is very minimal.

    Thankfully this major update of Kaspersky 2010 is not bloated or slow. It does take slightly more computer resources but its giving your computer more advanced protection against current and new threats. I definitely recommend this update and I have 25 genuine Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 license keys to be given away. Just make sure you’re a subscriber to my newsletter and then post a comment below at the end of this article. The 25 winners will be randomly picked and announced in 24 hours time.

    Jeff Ooi & Awang Adek on SME credit ratings

    This is the June 18 video clip of the Q&A between deputy Finance Minister Awang Adek and I on the effectiveness of SME Credit Buruau (M) Sdn Bhd in helping small and medium-sized enterprises which have no solid credit history to access credit facilities.

    The focus is on how the deputy minister Awang Adek answered my supplementary question in which I asked for a quantitative report on the response from the financial and credit-giving institutions now that they have quality intelligence on the SME's credit ratings in collaboration with database support from Dun & Bradstreet.

    Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

    Transformers: The Revenge of the Fallen - Optimus Prime
    Source: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

    Warning: Spoilers ahead. :)

    It has been a while since my short attention span was tested to its limits. This second Transformers movie literally got me gripping to my seat and giving Optimus Prime and his merry band of robots my full attention for two hours.

    The battle scenes were fast and furious. Bumble Bee was adorable. Devastator was scary. Jetfire the SR-71 Blackbird Decepticon turncoat was magnanimous by sacrificing himself to help Optimus Prime triumph over the Fallen. The twins, Mudflap and Skids, were cute as an ice cream van and hilarious as Chevrolets.

    The most memorable character, however, was the radio-controlled toy monster truck, Wheelie, who joined the Autobots after learning from Jetfire that he could actually switch sides. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie and is going to watch it again at the cinema soon. Autobots Transform!

    The court was told that :

    a) Subpoena was not served  due to lack of initiative by police and DPP office.  We are foresee lack of proper planning by those involved here.

    b) As a Member of Parliament , I had attended the on going Parliament proceedings. Further local news papers covered my activities proving I not hiding or avoiding sub poena.

    Why should I avoid sub peona, when myself had pushed for the inquest rather then anyone else in Malaysia.

    MAAC Should Investigate The Real Issue

    Tamil language dailies shocked by MACC action

    By pekwan
    Created Wednesday, June 24th
    Wednesday, June 24th, 2009 07:28:00

    TAMIL language dailies have expressed their shock upon hearing that a Malay Mail journalist was taken in for questioning by the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) at its Selangor office at Plaza Masalam in Shah Alam on Monday night.

    Two Tamil dailies, Makkal Osai and Tamil Nesan, had published Kapar MP S. Manikavasagam’s claims on Saturday that an officer at MACC had told him that files related to the three reports lodged by the Kampung Perepat pioneers, as well as the one he had personally filed last year, had gone missing.

    An infuriated Manikavasagam, who had gone to the Selangor MACC office last Friday with a group of about 10 pioneers, then lodged another report, asking the MACC to, among others, probe how Temporary Occupation Licence (TOL) agricultural plots in Kapar had been transferred to the names of a Datuk, his family members and business associates by the Klang Land Office within 24 hours.

    But, on Monday, after Malay Mail frontpaged the issue, Selangor MACC officers not only conducted a four-hour enquiry on the Malay Mail reporter, Nevash Nair, but also confiscated his handphone and laptop.

    Makkal Osai news editor BR Rajan said the commision should investigate the real issue instead of  interrogating the reporter alone.

    “The reporter was merely reporting the plight of the complainants and what was said by the MP. This is simply intimidating the reporter who is just doing his job and carrying out his responsibility of helping the public.”

    A spokesman for Tamil Nesan said it was fine for a reporter to be called to assist in investigations. But by confiscating the phone and laptop, “it did not seem like the reporter was called to assist in investigations”.

    It is learnt that till now, no reporter from both the dailies had been picked up nor had any been contacted by MACC to be questioned.

    UMMC’s geriatric ward a class of its own

    There’s a bit of a running joke that the UMMC wards have “no class” which is true since unlike MOH hospitals, there is no 1st, 2nd and 3rd class wards. Yes, UMMC practices “socialist” medicine and all patients are treated equally according to their medical needs.
    Usually when people write in to the media about their experiences, it’s the one who have grouses or want to find fault, and hence negative feedback far outweighs the positive ones. I wish more people would write in with the positive experiences but such is human nature I guess.
    Anyway it’s nice to read Bhavani’s letter to Malaysiakini and I am sure the doctors in UMMC’s geriatric ward can pat themselves on their backs. Kudos!

    Short interview with me on BMW Shorties website

    Did a quick email interview with the peeps at BMW Shorties two days ago, and the interview was immediately up on their page yesterday. Good job using the cast and crew photo from 3PM too!

    An excerpt.

    Filmmaking has been around for decades, how do you innovate and make your film different?

    Actually, I don’t self-consciously try to be ‘innovative’ and do things ‘people had never done before’. Normally I just find a story I really like to do, and hope that my personal filmmaking sensibilities can do justice to the story, enough to make it unique. I’m not sure whether I am original, it’s really up to my audiences to decide that.

    Chitika Review - I am liking it


    ADVERTISEMENTS

    As always, whoever pay us more we like them right? This is partially true because Google Adsense is still my highest earner. Previously I did started well with Kontera but income slips to cents/day altough traffic does increases and I felt trap because my earning is at $50.00+ but the payout is only at $100.

    Chitika is a totatly different advertisements system, a little similar to amazon ads and having some inteligent to detect the source of the traffic from search engine by showing relating products or services. Chitika is pretty fair because they do not appear if there is no related ads and if the traffic is coming from non-paying region, the advertisements does not appear as well.

    The ads look like this but they have quite a lot of different sizes and different type of advertisements that you could do try out on your blog.

    chitika-review

    Best of all, minimum payout is only $10.00  (via paypal) and $50.00 (via Check). I am using paypal because I could use them to purchase domain and pay hosting easily. Anyway there is method to withdraw from Paypal if the money starts piling up in Paypal. Payment is okay, one month after you accumulated the trashold (USD10 if you are using paypal).

    So far, Chitika is not earning as much as Kontera as I have receives my first payment from Kontera, but Chitika was only installed one one of my blog and Kontera is actually installed on 2. With this rate, I am sure that Chitika will pickup pretty quickly.

    If you are a blogger who wants to earn some small money for domain and hosting, you should check out Chitika.

    p/s This is my personal Chitika Review, you have have a different experience.

    Hii's (Sarawak) mirror mirror on the wall...

    Pro-Ong Tee Keat's MCA has an online front, MalaysianMirror.com.

    It made a cyber debut June 15, the day the Parliament reconvened, but was officially unveiled only today.

    The behind-the-scene mover is believed to be former Borneo Post journalist Clement Hii, who now happens to be Executive Deputy Chairman of Star Publications (M) Bhd, which is indirectly owned by MCA via Huaren Holdings Sdn Bhd.

    Earlier, Hii had a stint as the CEO of education group, SEG International Bhd.

    Francis Siah, a former deputy editor of the now-defunct Sarawak Tribune, is the Mirror's editor for the time being. He is joined by former MCA staffer Stanley Koh on the news desk.

    Both Siah and Koh used to write for Malaysiakini.

    Sarawak connections

    Interestingly, the arrival of the Malaysian Mirror was announced yesterday by Bernama's Alan Ting, who is also from Sarawak.

    Siah was quoted by Tiing as say that the Mirror will be officially launched on June 30 by former prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad.

    Trackback and Pingback Not Working in Wordpress 2.8

    I just downgraded Wordpress 2.8 to Wordpress 2.6.5. The same problem with trackback and pingback not working cropped up just like after Wordpress 2.7 was installed. When I discovered that Wordpress 2.8 was not sending trackbacks and pingbacks, I deactivated all plugins and used a different template. It was still no go. I deleted wp-admin and wp-includes, overwrote files in the root folder with similar files from Wordpress 2.6.5 and copied the two folders over. As soon as I ran the upgrade script for Wordpress 2.6.5 trackback and pingback from published entries were sent out. Looks like I am stuck with Wordpress 2.6.5 for now until I find a way to make trackbacks and pingbacks work for the newer versions.

    First taste of academic freedom!

    Recall that I am taking a course directly through Upper Iowa University’s independent study program? I have just mailed off my first unit coursework to the lecturer by regular postal mail. She resides in Illinois and if all goes well, I believe she will receive my submission in less than two weeks.

    It was a good start. The textbook that she is using, ‘Human Services in Contemporary America’ by William Burger is a very elaborate but concise text. I would have thought that such a text is usually reserved for graduate studies because readers need to have a broad worldview in subjects such as law,politics,economics, history, and a very broad understanding of Psychology.

    The first unit coursework questions werealso very nicely tailored. I need to refer back to the book and even re-read chapters in order to answer some questions. This applies to all sections – objective, short answer, and essay questions. It’s not possible to memorize the textbook without any comprehensive reading and expect myself to answer the questions confidently, Very unlike my previous study experiences at local institutions.

    I am so glad to have started on the independent study program. It sure makes one feel autonomous when we are fully responsible for directing our studies!
