HxH manga will resume on October. After 3 months of hiatus now they will come back. I wonder what the continuation will be. I'm so excited about it.

Your Perceptions About Filipino

2008-07-08T17:15:00.002+08:00

This was a topic from Random Chat section of Dota Allstars. And we're talking about perceptions with regards to us, Filipino.

me:
Indeed, I am proud to be a Filipino and I care for our country. However, what I do not like is the ‘crab mentality’ outlook that lingers on our society. If we overcome this attitude and work with cooperation maybe that is the only time, we can move forward as a better nation. We really have the most resources to utilize.

With our current system of government, the corruption and people’s mental attitude, I feel the slow progress. Still, I am hoping and being proactive. It is about time to work as one nation. We should not be overwhelmed with our neighboring countries. The solution will really depend on us.

yorro:
People votes the politician who pays them, they don't care if he is corrupt and shit. Honestly! If they really need to get payed just take the money and vote for the honest guy, it's not like they can see it anyway.

I really feel bad about the Hydrogen Car.

me:
That's really happening during the election but not in general. But you're right, since most of our countrymen are poor, sometimes they have really no idea of whom to vote. This kind of scenario will never end unless a drastic change on the government and the people itself. The system is corrupted even to lowest ranking officials! Poor Filipinos are suffering for a very long time.

yorro:
I still feel bad about the Hydrogen Car, an example of crab mentality.

me:
Do not worry about that. The patent goes to Daniel Dingle of course. Too bad, we are not the one who fully developed and utilized the idea. It goes to Japan! Damn. Sigh.

This is a remarkable discovery of the century. Time will come; oil will be no longer our major concern. This will also solve the problem on pollution and global warming.

yorro:
The idea could lift us on our addiction to gas. Imagine tricycles, jeeps, and bus all run on water. Less price hike problems.

me:
Hydrogen fuel is almost an infinite source of energy. This is a huge discovery where the entire population will benefit. But also there is an equivalent risk. It can also be used to create weapon for mass destruction. The idea behind the invention was so perfect for creating a self-generating H-bomb. The invention was ideally made not to contain the gas but to process it on demand eliminating the risk of explosion.

To be continued...

Manny Pacquiao Rules!

2008-06-30T12:05:00.003+08:00

I missed the reunion meeting yesterday just to watch Manny Pacquiao. Feel sorry for not informing my batch mates early because I overslept. Hope they understand my lame excuse. Lol.

Manny won the title match! An amazing ninth round KO! Now I know why strength type really has no match against speed with firepower. Thought it would end at round four! Diaz was so tough but eventually knocked down after a deadly right hook cunning blade super kamehameha combination. Haha. We loved you Manny. Mabuhay!

Creating and Uploading CSS file

2008-06-19T09:40:00.004+08:00

Updated as of June 19, 2008
Instructions:

1. Copy and paste the desired specific CSS codes to Notepad editor. Save as under filename extension .css. For example, My.css:

2. Upload the css file to any hosting site like freewebtown.com or ripway.com. You need to free register on these sites.

3. Copy the link location of the uploaded css file. For example: http://www.freewebtown.com/kiluazordic/my.css.

4. Now download and open this css linker code. Replace the text URL OF CSS with your own css file link location. For example:

5. Copy and paste this code on the Media section of your Friendster profile. Save Profile & then click Refresh to see the changes.

Credit goes to TheCradle for providing the latest linker code! Cheers! ^^,

CSS & JS Linker

2008-06-19T09:00:00.000+08:00

To those who are asking me about how to run the css codes, please be guided that in order for them to work, we need to have css or js linker.

Friendster frequently updates their system. And because of this recent linkers now are no longer working at the moment. We need to wait patiently.

I suggest everytime we will update our profile be sure not to edit the section where our linker resides. For example, if it's in the Who's View Me (WVM) section, do not edit that part unless we're sure that the linker is updated. Otherwise, it will be automatically removed due to current filtering system being implemented. That's the reason why my profile samples are still working even though the linker is outdated. Just FYI.

Sunday DOTA Madness

2008-06-17T08:58:00.007+08:00

Played dota with my friends last Sunday. And uhm, my Imbadusa was totally perma stunned and killed by Jarakaal with no godly items at all but only sange & treads! Don't have a replay though. Hope it's not a bug which is bothering. Stunning for more than 6 seconds was so crazy. Though of course we still won the game. It goes 15-3 with the ff. items: linken's sphere, treads, radiance, sange & yasha. This is madness! Cheers. ^^

HxH is on hiatus again!

2008-05-19T09:43:00.009+08:00

HunterXHunter is taking a nap again as expected. Sigh. I do not understand why the author keeps on doing this. The manga has gone of it several times. I just hope that they still published at least two chapters though.

We really love HxH. We cannot wait any longer. So please make it fast. Book! Accompany ON! To Massodara!

So Busy...

2008-05-02T11:32:00.005+08:00

I've been so busy for the past few weeks. This new job is pretty challenging than I thought. I have so many popping ideas. But still I need motivation. Sigh.

Excel Tips: EnableCalculation Method

2008-04-09T14:38:00.006+08:00

I noticed that whenever you invoke Application.Calculation to Automatic, it will recalculate the entire workbook. This is bad if your calculation procedure is only concerned to a particular worksheet. With the function below, I was able to control the scenario:

Public Const ONEONLY as Integer = 1
Public Const DISABLEALL as Integer = 2
Public Const ENABLEALL as Integer = 3

Sub SheetCalculation(iMethod As Integer, Optional sWorksheetName As String)

Dim ws As Worksheet

Application.Calculation = xlCalculationManual

Select Case iMethod

Case ONEONLY: 'To enable active sheet and disable the others

For Each ws In Worksheets
If ws.Name <> sWorksheetName Then
ws.EnableCalculation = False
Else
ws.EnableCalculation = True
End If
Next

Case DISABLEALL: 'To disable all sheets
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.EnableCalculation = False
Next

Case ENABLEALL: 'To enable all sheets
For Each ws In Worksheets
ws.EnableCalculation = True
Next

Set ws = Nothing

End Select
Application.Calculation = xlCalculationAutomatic

End Sub

With the function above, you can disable/enable the other/all worksheets while doing calculation on the active sheet. This will save calculation time if the active sheet does not rely on any the other sheets at all.

Today's Episode: The Future

2008-04-09T10:37:00.010+08:00

I was recently "promoted" as part of the new Trade Marketing group. Another shift on my career. Surely I will give my best shots. But let me see. Hmm...

Next year I'm planning to work abroad. In Singapore actually. I wanted to bring back the glory of my IT expertise. I feel that it's in my blood. Is it Henkel Goodbye?

I've been working for 5 years now. My first job. It's a wonderful work experience. Indeed. But I guess it's not enough. I need to grow more. More! More compensation please? Lol.

For now, I'm preparing myself for a future journey. Hope everything will run according to plan. Whatever it takes please come and fly with me! Ciao.

Dota 6.52

2008-03-27T13:34:00.002+08:00

Probably this week will be the release of 6.52. I hope there will be new hero for Sentinel. Invoker was recently added to Scourge. I wonder what will be the model of the next new hero. Let’s wait and see.

Invoker's Skills & Abilities

Orb Bonuses:
=========

Each orb gives a special bonus when it is on active. They all scale linearly. You can have 3 orbs on you at any given point, and there are 7 levels, so 7*3=21 maximum level of power on any specific orb.

Quas - 0.75 hp bonus regen per level per instance
Exort - 3 damage per level per instance
Wex - 2% AS and 1% MS per level per instance
Orb Combinations:
============
There are 10 combinations total. Order is not a consideration. So if you have 2 exort and 1 quas, thats all that matters, not which came first. It is more intuitive and usable than before. The abilities are based on which properties form them.

The 10 combinations are: QQQ, QQE, WWQ, QQW, EEE, EEQ, EEW, WWW, WWE, QWE.
Invoke:
======
As previously stated, this has 4 levels.. There is a new mechanic here that didn't exist before. Its dual invokes. This is allowed on higher levels of Invoke.

Level 1: 30 CD, 20 Manacost
Level 2: 30 CD, 40 Manacost, 2 Invokes
Level 3: 15 CD, 60 Manacost, 2 Invokes
Level 4: 5 CD, 80 Manacost, 2 Invokes
Current Invoke Spells:
=======================

500/675/900/1100/1300/1500/1700

EEW - Chaos Meteor:
-------------------------
This is mainly fire and aoe. It travels long distance based on Wex and damages based on Exort. Deals 80/110/140/170/200/230/260 damage per second in a 300 moving area. Damage is done in 0.5 intervals, it does not damage over time on the burnt ground, only on the meteor itself as it is moving. Distance goes from 500 up to 1550. Units that get hit by this have a damage over time fire on them. The damage over time is 1/5 of what the regual damage is, and lasts 2 seconds.

Cooldown: 30
Manacost: 200
WWE - EMP:
---------------
Deals damage from 120 up to 300 in a 700 area, based on Exort. same for mana loss, but based on Wex. The speed of the detonation is 4 seconds, down to 2 on max Wex. This is a target point effect, you target a location and the charge builds up there.

Cooldown: 40
Manacost: 250
WWQ - Tornado:
--------------------
This is a long range fast moving semi-disable ability. It cyclones units in its path, then damages them when they land. Damage is from 175 to 350 based on Wex and Quas. Distance is from 700 to 3100 Wex based. Airtime is from 0.4 to 2.2 Quas based.

Cooldown: 25
Manacost: 150
QQW - Ghost Walk:
-----------------------
This is a wind walk variation. You become invisible, but you move slower. Enemy units near you move slower as well. The amount you are slowed by in wind walk is Wex based from 30% to 0% and the amount the enemies are slowed is Quas based from 10% to 40%.

Cooldown: 60
Manacost: 300
QWE - Deafening Blast:
----------------------------
This is a line ability. A projectile flies and knockbacks units in its way, making them unable to attack for a period of time. Damage is Exort based, 40->280. Attack Silence duration is Wex based, from 1 to 4 seconds. Knockback duration is based on Quas, from 0.25 to 1.75. The attack silence effect starts after the knockback is done processing.

Cooldown: 25
Manacost: 200
QQE - Ice Wall:
------------------
Slows based on Quas, not sure how meaningful numbers are here, it needs a visual test because of the way its implemented. Its basically the same as the old Ice Wall, except instead of making you crawl to a halt instantly at level 1, it now slows based on Quas level. The duration the icewall is alive is from 3 to 10 seconds. Deals 5->30 dps based on Exort.

Cooldown: 20
Manacost: 125
