毁谤

2011-06-13T08:46:00.000+08:00

有很多事情

只有当事人才知道

如果我们乱讲

那只会构成毁谤

可是现在很多人却敢敢在 Internet 上乱讲

还制作了一些 video 放上网

更糟的是引起共鸣。。

好自为之啦。。

Fake Maybank2u

2010-09-30T11:21:00.005+08:00

I received an e-mail from Maybank two hours ago about Maintenance Update.

By checking it carefully, the sender's e-mail address and the subject are something wrong. It should be "Maintenance", not "Maintanance", should be "Maybank", not "May Bank".
My curiosity asked me to move forward, therefore, I've clicked the "Click Here" link in the e-mail but my Google Chrome showed me the following screen:

I wondered why Maybank's website is being suspected as phishing site. So, I "Proceed anyway". And I found that the URL is not Maybank2u's real URL, instead, it's a forum's URL!!!

Be careful and beware of this!!

I won't be the only one that receive such e-mail.

I don't think this is the real website from Maybank. I did not try to login as I'm not brave enough.

So.. please let me know if I'm wrong.

If you would like to TEST it, here's the URL:

http://forum.dragonia.pl/stats/securepage/M2ULogin.doaction=Login.htm

---------------------------------------------------------------------

1st October 2010

Just received e-mail from Maybank regarding my request to investigate the phishing site.

Thank you for your email.

We would like to inform you that the email you have received is NOT sent by Maybank. Please ignore it and delete it from your mailbox immediately. For security reasons, please DO NOT login to any website links contained in an email.

Please note that Maybank will never send emails to customers requesting for personal information. If you wish to access a website belonging to Maybank or its subsidiaries or associates, please enter the relevant website address directly in the browser address bar.

Please be assured that the relevant department is monitoring the progress closely and action would be taken to take down the phishing websites once it had been detected. However, we are unable to rule out the possibility that another website with a different URL may come up.

Hence, we would appreciate that you continue to ignore and delete such phishing emails.

So, be careful!!

I've been working in Damansara area for more than one year and tried a lot of food in Damansara and Petaling Jaya area especially during lunch hours. However, there is one famous place that I seldom visit and the number of my visit to this place is obviously countable.

Terrible double parking and difficulty in finding car park are its characteristic and the reasons that stop us visiting it. You are right, it is Damansara Uptown.

Today, we've move one step forward in our food hunting operation by having our lunch in Damansara Uptown and the lucky restaurant was..

I love its interior design. Colourful, cute, lovely.. comfortable feeling.

AirAsia Price Chart

2010-08-17T14:49:00.002+08:00

AirAsia has become my main consideration when I plan to travel. However, it is always troublesome to check the price of the tickets. It needs us to check one day by one day but this is just too slow especially during the promotion period when we need to grab the ticket faster than others.

Here's something my friend sent to me. It's amazing!!

www.airasiachart.com

You can see the cheapest price of the day in the chart for around ONE YEAR at once!!

Besides, you can choose and click the Book button and it will directly link you to AirAsia website for booking! This is really wonderful and it is very helpful in planning of ticket booking.

In addition, the website is presented in English and Simplified Chinese.

Please check everything carefully in the official AirAsia website before booking. I'm not sure how accurate the data of this website is.

Let's travel!!

Google Chrome 6 Beta

2010-08-12T22:29:00.000+08:00

Just found that my Google Chrome has been updated to version 6.0.472.33 beta.

Now can sync not only Bookmarks, Preferences and Themes, but also AutoFill and Extensions.

Well done Google!!

Finally.. after n years..

2010-08-10T22:14:00.003+08:00

Finally.. after n years..

I bought a mobile phone and changed my line from prepaid to postpaid. My previous n phones were provided second-hand-ly by my aunt for free and I was using prepaid since I had my first mobile phone.

After doing some thorough researches from the Internet, I've chosen HTC Desire which is powered by Android to be my new mobile phone. Actually I was tempted to buy this since months ago, even before it was released by Maxis in Malaysia, but I did not take action until last week.

Besides, I finally got my birthday vouchers which has been delayed for 2 months. Yes, I can start shopping in this sales season!! Going to buy a new pair of working shoes.

Not only this birthday vouchers, I also received my RM10 Guardian voucher which I bought through MYDEAL.com.my at only RM4.99.

Today's Sinchew Daily newspaper said in horoscope section that I'd have bad lucks, however, I consider today was a good day for me as I received what I was waiting for.

Hope GOOD LUCK continues!!

Talentime

2010-08-09T22:29:00.001+08:00

Just watched Talentime from the original DVD which I bought on last Saturday.

I was late, around 1 year and 4 months after it was released in the cinema but luckily I was just late but not absent. I was still thinking whether I've wasted money on the DVD but I found it was worth buying after enjoying it.

Talentime was the last feature film by our very own director Yasmin Ahmad prior to her death. Once again, this is a 1 Malaysia film starred by three main races in Malaysia with different speaking languages which are English, Malay, Tamil, Cantonese and Mandarin.

I seriously believe that the subtitle plays a very significant role in this movie, well, at least for someone like me who doesn't master all the languages mentioned.

If the moon can linger on a morning so bright, why can't the sun do the same at night?

Talentime Trailer

I'm not going to be a spoiler here.

Let the movie tells you the story.

巴利文字典

2010-07-15T22:42:00.002+08:00

巴利语是佛陀用的语言，三藏（律藏、经藏、论藏）也是用巴利文记载的。

学会了巴利文之后，我们就能更明白三藏。

而学习语言，非常重要的一个工具就是字典。

这里有个非常强的电脑程序，里面包含了巴利字典和巴利文的佛教三藏。

只要双击那三藏里面的巴利字，字典就会自动帮你找意思。

除此之外，你也可以直接用那个字典来搜寻你要的巴利字的意思。

谢谢这位电脑程序作者 alobha无嗔，sàdhu sàdhu sàdhu!!

愿你们早日证得涅槃！！

2010世界杯冠军 —— 西班牙

2010-07-12T20:01:00.000+08:00

恭喜西班牙赢得2010年世界杯！！

一流的个人技术再加上整体流畅的配合

而且个个球员整个赛季都在各自的球会表现得不错

实至名归，当之无愧，名副其实的强队！

2010年世界杯终于结束了

那些熬夜追看决赛的人也该好好的休息了

这一休息就是四年了

希望在这四年里，世界足球的发展能有重大的突破

包括利用科技来帮助裁判作出更准确的判罚

我看了很多场比赛

也怀疑当中假球嫌疑的可能性
假球是如何发生的？
当球员被收买，当裁判被收买，当教练被收买。。
被谁收买都算。。

让我举些例子吧

荷兰 vs 巴西
巴西上半场踢得比荷兰出色很多，却在下半场出奇的糟糕，到底是不是更衣室发生了什么问题？
很多时候，几个荷兰球员拿球到巴西的禁区时，在自己人多过巴西球员的情况下却不射门，反而慢条斯理地让后来居上的巴西球员把球抢回去。。
阿根廷 vs 德国
一路上都踢得不错的阿根廷居然以0比4的大笔数败给德国。这没什么出奇，因为在球场上什么都会发生的。奇怪的是，为什么阿根廷球员在落后的时候，有机会也不打防守反击？为什么在比赛结束前还不尝试多点射门，而选择以个人突破，即使面对非常多的德国防守球员？一个强队竟然会这样。。
英格兰 vs 德国
这是一场有名的战役，因为 Lampard 明显的进球不被裁判认同。即使球场内有大荧幕重播，裁判还是不判进球。
墨西哥 vs 阿根廷
Tevez 的越位进球被判有效。即使大荧幕马上重播，清楚的显示 Tevez 明显越位在先，裁判依然保持原判，这是为什么呀？

这都是嫌疑而已，我也希望不是真的
不过球场上的假球也不是新闻了
Juventus 就是因为这样而被剥夺两年的冠军，然后被贬到 Serie B 去。。

希望四年后的世界杯更好！！

World Cup 2010 - Final

2010-07-09T21:58:00.000+08:00

Time flies, and finally, World Cup 2010 has reach the final stage where a brand new champion will be born among Spain and Netherlands as both of them have never won the World Cup champion before.

Along the way to the final, Netherlands had met only one strong opponent which was Brazil. Although Brazil played better in the first half compared to Netherlands, Brazil lost to themselves by having an own goal and red card in the second half, thanks to Felipe Melo, who assisted Netherlands in the victory.

I do not think that Netherlands played very well in all the games they have won. Most of the time in most games, they did not display a beautiful movement and smooth flow. However, they have some good players especially the influential midfielder Wesley Sneijder, who has scored 5 goals in 6 games, to lead them with his own individual ability.

Unlike Netherlands, Spain had more tough opponents in their knock-out stage as they met Portugal and Germany. Even in the group stage, Chile was not an easy opponent. After their defeat to Switzerland in their first match, they had become more cautious in their following games. Besides, Spain has clean sheet in all matches in the knock-out stage even though they played against Portugal and Germany. In addition, there are more world class players in Spain team and many of them are the skipper in their own football club. Even Arsenal captain, Cesc Fabregas could only be sitting on bench in most of the time.

Therefore, I support Spain to be the new World Cup Holder!!

希望 Capello 留下

2010-06-29T00:12:00.004+08:00

[image from footballandmusic.co.uk]

在英格兰饮恨南非世界杯之后

看到了很多孔明很多炮

他们都异口同声咬定英格兰主帅Capello是败笔

认为他固执地坚持死板的 4-4-2 战术

认为他没有 Plan B

认为他没能激活球场上的球星

在这些人当中

有谁敢在赛前大言不惭地说他将会是败笔？

英格兰在入选赛打得顺风顺水

一路强势杀进决赛圈

那个时候每个人都在称赞他

他在决赛圈用的4-4-2战术不是英格兰在入选赛的时候惯用的吗？

而他用的球员有多少个不是入选赛的常客？
更有人说他不应该用Upson而弃用Carragher

英格兰的失败是因为他们自己

心理素质差，尤其在杯赛里

受不住严格的训练，向往享受

一队老化、青黄不接、板凳不深，随便一个主力受伤就很难找到合适的替补

Rooney看起来很压力、踢得放不开，不知道是不是因为太想进球而弄巧反拙
Ferdinand受伤，Carragher速度慢，Upson没经验

Terry竟然要反叛

还有，当然就是运气不够好。。

Capello是冠军教练，从AC Milan、Real Madrid、到AS Roma和 Juventus。。
我希望Capello能够留下至少多两年

如果真的不能，那就算了吧

毕竟英格兰已经习惯了

FIFA Rejects Technology

2010-06-28T20:21:00.001+08:00

FIFA has rejected the use of technology in football matches despite two obvious mistakes from the referees and linesmen in two World Cup matches on 27 June 2010.

"No matter which technology is applied, at the end of the day a decision will have to be taken by a human being,"

Blatter said in March.

"This being the case, why remove the responsibility from the referee to give it to someone else? It is often the case that, even after a slow-motion replay, ten different experts will have ten different opinions on what the decision should have been. Fans love to debate any given incident in a game. It is part of the human nature of our sport."

Come on.. sports need improvement.

Right, the final decision will have to be taken by a human being, but this does not mean that human cannot be assisted by technology in analyzing the situation before making the decision.

When a referee, whether deliberately or accidentally, made a conspicuous mistake in a match and insisted that his/her judgement was correct although the big screen in the stadium repeatedly replayed the real situation, everyone was feeling being fooled. Isn't technology invented to make our life better?

Technology could be just a tool to assist the referees and is not the referee itself. Why is FIFA so stubborn in this issue?

Is it true that they need some loopholes in the rules in order to gain some control on certain matches?

Face in Space

2010-06-10T19:57:00.000+08:00

Have you ever dreamt of flying to the space?
Perhaps, it's still quite difficult for you to enter the space.
However, at least what we can do now is..

"NASA wants to put a picture of you on one of the two remaining space shuttle missions and launch it into orbit."

Just follow some simple steps to send your picture into the orbit.

Fill in your name and country, then choose one of the two space shuttle by which you want to send your picture, and select a picture of your face.

I've used a picture of tatty teddy as the example :)

Then it will show you an animation.

And finally, you will receive the details of your mission and your confirmation number.

What you can do now?

Go to http://faceinspace.nasa.gov/ and wait for the LAUNCH!!!!

See you in the space!!

Dietary Fats

2010-06-07T23:02:00.026+08:00

Have you ever wondered what effects that the fats you consume bring?

Most of the times, fats give us a bad image that they always bring us health problems such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, heart disease and obesity. However, these problems will only occur when we over consume fats especially the bad fats.

There are four types of dietary fats that we consume in almost every day.

Saturated Fats	Raise LDL (bad) cholesterol
Trans Fats	Raise LDL (bad) cholesterol Lower HDL (good) cholesterol
Monounsaturated Fats	Lower LDL (bad) cholesterol Maintain/Raise HDL (good) cholesterol
Polyunsaturated Fats	Lower LDL (bad) cholesterol Lower HDL (good) cholesterol

Saturated fats are usually found in animal products such as meat, dairy and eggs. These fats are solid at room temperature. High consumption of saturated fats will increase the blood cholesterol level and consequently cause heart disease.

[image from decideforyourself]

Trans fats occur during hydrogenation process which changes liquid oils into solid fats. They are used in processed food, typically chips, cookies, cake, crackers, fries, donut and some margarine. Since they raise the LDL (bad) cholesterol and at the same time lower HDL (good) cholesterol, it is recommended to consume them as little as possible.

[image from oliveswellness]

Monounsaturated fats can be found in canola oil, olive oil, avocado oil, and peanut oil. They are considered as good fats as they lower LDL (bad) cholesterol while maintaining HDL (good) cholesterol. However, beware if you are trying to lose weight because they contain the same amount of calories as the other fats.

[image from itsfordinner]

Polyunsaturated fats lower LDL (bad) cholesterol but also lower HDL (good) cholesterol. They are mainly found in vegetable oils such as safflower, sunflower, sesame, soybean, and corn oils.

Hope this article may help you to understand more about the four types of dietary fats and be able to choose the fats wisely to eat.

每个所缘都有它的吸引力

不管是生是死青红皂白

对坏的所缘就生起嗔

还有痴根心的伴随

韩国 - 童话世界

2007-11-09T13:05:00.000+08:00

2007年 10月 13日

听说 BEXCO 那里有什么 Global Gathering

好像很多不同国家的人会聚在一起

所以身为外国人的我　也想凑热闹

中午时分便到了 BEXCO

首先看到的是挪威的摊子

他们当场做了挪威的点心　饼干夹芝士　还不错

接着　并没有拍多少照片

说实话　并不怎么吸引人

所以拍了几张而已

绕了一圈　就把所有档口走完

白天还很年轻　不能在这里蹉跎

隔壁就是釜山美术馆　走～！！

美术馆不让拍照　所以就只拍了外表

内涵　必须自己进去体会

过后　回到 BEXCO

看到 BEXCO 里面有展览

Architecture Exhibition

好开心　因为之前以为结束了　想不到还有

里面有好多好多建筑物的模型

什么未来的釜山之类的。。

走啊走啊

惊喜

看到 Cookies Architecture

模型都是用糖果、巧克力、饼干造的

居然有国油双峰塔

问题是　好像要倒了一样。。

哈哈　好像活在童话世界里　

韩国 - 户外电影

2007-11-09T12:28:00.000+08:00

2007年 10月10日

双十节

这天又在看 PIFF 电影了

特别的是　这天看的是户外的

从来没看过户外电影

别把 mamak 档归类在内

看吧　好像世界杯一样　人山人海

大屏幕就在前方

在电影开始前　还有音乐表演

有华乐　有小提琴　好好听

就这样结束了我的 PIFF

看了两部 PIFF 电影

算是很好了
