HEADCOUNT

2011-03-30T15:48:00.002+08:00

DEFINISI
Proses mengenal pasti potensi akademik dan potensi kerjaya setiap murid mulai Tahun 1 hingga Tahun 6 (UPSR)/ Tingkatan 1 hingga Tingkatan 6
(Abas Awang 2002)

Proses mengenal pasti, merasionalkan, dan menjustifikasikan penentuan ciri-ciri keupayaan pembelajaran bagi setiap pelajar supaya guru dapat menyenaraikan dan menetapkan unjuran pencapaian subjek bagi pelajar tersebut di dalam kelas yang diajarnya.
(Hjh. Salmiah bt. Mohd Salleh- Guru Inovatif Negeri Kedah 2003)

RASIONAL
1. Pengunjuran kecemerlangan yang diamalkan kini berasaskan kenaikan peratus
setiap tahun, misalnya 5%, 8%, 10%, dan seterusnya.
2. Kenaikan peratusan itu tidak berdasarkan potensi individu murid.
3. Pengunjuran itu tidak dikaitkan dengan kecerdasan pelbagai (Multiple Inteligences) murid secara individu, cita-cita, dan peluang belajar di IPTA/IPTS dan pencapaian akademik seluruhnya
4. Kebanyakan murid tiada wawasan diri. Mereka belajar tanpa haluan dan fokus. Murid yang tiada matlamat diri tiada kesungguhan dalam pembelajaran.
5. Guru-guru tidak dapat membimbing dan memotivasikan pelajarnya kerana tidak menganalisis data yang mengakibatkan strategi pemulihan, pengukuhan, dan pengayaan tidak menepati sasaran

Mengapa Perlu Headcount?
1. Melihat keupayaan sedia ada setiap murid;
2. Menilai potensi setiap murid yang dapat digarap;
3. Merancang program yang bersesuaian dengan kebolehan dan keupayaan murid
berasaskan diagnosis yang tepat;
4. Untuk tujuan post-mortem dan tindakan penambahbaikan yang proaktif;
5. Pemantauan dan penilaian boleh dibuat oleh Pengetua, Guru Besar, GPK, guru kelas, dan guru mata pelajaran secara sistematik;
6. Panitia dapat berfungsi dengan lebih berkesan.

"Guru sudah jadi kerani"

2010-10-02T12:50:00.004+08:00

Greetings,

Copy paste entry below.

BESARNYA cabaran dan tanggungjawab dipikul guru masa kini menimbulkan pertikaian di kalangan masyarakat adakah golongan itu mampu melaksanakan amanah dengan sempurna.
FAHAMI MEREKA...ambillah tahu mengenai kesukaran guru supaya mereka rasa dihargai.
FAHAMI MEREKA...ambillah tahu mengenai kesukaran guru supaya mereka rasa dihargai.
PENUH DUGAAN...mengajar pelajar sudah cukup mencabar, guru tidak wajar dibebankan lagi dengan tugasan sampingan remeh sebaliknya fokus pada tanggungjawab hakiki.
PENUH DUGAAN...mengajar pelajar sudah cukup mencabar, guru tidak wajar dibebankan lagi dengan tugasan sampingan remeh sebaliknya fokus pada tanggungjawab hakiki.
Bukan sekadar mendidik, pelbagai tuntutan kerjaya tidak sepatutnya kini mereka galas menjadikan tumpuan terhadap proses penjanaan dan pembelajaran ilmu terjejas.

Lebih menyedihkan, golongan itu turut menjadi sasaran kecaman masyarakat jika gagal melahirkan pelajar cemerlang akademik dan sahsiah diri menyebabkan guru semakin terdesak serta tertekan.

Apakah benar peranan guru sebagai sumber pemangkin ilmu semakin terhakis sebaliknya menjadi golongan itu diperkotak katikkan hingga mereka dalam dilema. Pengerusi Kesatuan Kebangsaan Guru-Guru Lepasan Maktab Semenanjung Malaysia Cawangan Kedah, Anuar Husin, berkata golongan guru hari ini bukan sekadar memegang tanggungjawab sebagai pendidik malah anggota masyarakat secara keseluruhan.

Menurutnya, cabaran utama bukan lagi menyalurkan ilmu kepada pelajar sebaliknya turut mendidik masyarakat melalui peranan di luar waktu persekolahan sekali gus memberi bebanan dalam melaksanakan tumpuan dan tanggungjawab sebenar.

"Dalam perguruan, tugas hakiki adalah mengajar, malangnya guru masa kini dilambakkan dengan pelbagai tanggungjawab sukar dan mencabar. Mereka bukan sekadar guru tapi turut mendidik masyarakat secara keseluruhan.

"Malangnya masyarakat bersikap sambil lewa dan enggan bersama memikul tanggungjawab mendidik menyebabkan mereka semakin tertekan. Guru juga dihimpunkan pelbagai tugasan tidak sepatutnya seperti perkeranian.

"Justeru, bagaimana mahu menumpukan perhatian pada tugasan? Masyarakat hanya tahu memberi tekanan tapi enggan membantu," katanya.

Bukan isu baru guru terpaksa memikul pelbagai tanggungjawab remeh yang menuntut pengorbanan masa, antaranya mengurus dan mengemaskini sistem maklumat pelajar (Emis), sistem salah laku, pendaftaran, yuran, mengurus kumpulan wang amanah pelajar miskin (KWAPM), rancangan makanan dan susu tambahan.

Memburukkan keadaan, mereka terpaksa berhempas pulas menghabiskan sukatan pengajaran kerana dihantar berkursus selain pembelajaran tergendala.

Mengulasnya, Anuar berkata waktu persekolahan padat serta pelbagai perancangan dibuat menjadikan waktu guru semakin terhad hingga menyukarkan proses pembelajaran berjalan lancar.

"Sungguhpun tugasan sampingan tidak sukar, banyak waktu terbuang. Guru sering merungut kerana terlalu terikat dengan pelbagai tuntutan menyebabkan proses pembelajaran tergendala.

"Ia bukan remeh dan perlu diberi perhatian kerana bersangkut paut pencapaian pelajar masa depan. Guru sentiasa dipersalahkan jika pelajar gagal.

"Masyarakat pula mahukan kecemerlangan tapi enggan memahami. Apabila guru gagal menyempurnakannya, bukankah akan menimbulkan konflik? "Tindakan segera perlu diambil kerana bimbang akan menjejaskan mutu pendidikan keseluruhannya," katanya sambil meminta pihak berkenaan mencari penyelesaian terbaik bagi mengatasi kemelut itu.

Ditanya adakah rungutan itu disebabkan guru sudah lama dalam zon selesa, beliau berkata golongan itu boleh menerima perubahan namun perlu ada batasan dan mekanisme tertentu bagi menanganinya.

"Guru boleh menerima perubahan malah sedar tanggungjawab dipikul semakin berat tapi perlu ada tolak ansur. Mereka juga ada tanggungjawab lain perlu dipenuhi seperti keluarga.

"Masyarakat juga harus memberi sokongan dan bersama menggembleng tanggungjawab. Jangan lepaskan sepenuhnya pada guru kerana tidak adil," katanya.

Bagi mengatasi kemelut itu, beliau mencadangkan penyusunan semula tugas pekeranian sedia ada hingga tidak mengganggu tugas hakiki guru selain menambah lagi pembantu guru bertaraf kerani.

Bilangan pelajar turut perlu dikurangkan supaya guru tidak terbeban dalam mengemaskini data peribadi selain menerapkan peranan alumni untuk memberi pembelajaran berbeza berdasarkan pengalaman pekerjaan.

"Konflik perlu diatasi secara berhemah supaya semua pihak mendapat manfaatnya. Penyelesaian bukan sekadar jangka pendek tapi berpanjangan demi kebaikan generasi seterusnya.

"Menjadi guru bukan mudah namun kerjaya itu sangat mulia, perlu berlapang dada menerima apa jua cabaran manakala masyarakat juga jangan bersikap lepas tangan.

"Proses penjanaan ilmu tidak akan terhenti, justeru pelbagai pihak perlu mencari penyelesaian supaya konflik sedia ada dapat diatasi," katanya.

"Gurauan Rakan Melampau"

2010-04-01T06:15:00.005+08:00

Greetings,

I'm not being 'batu api' here but what if this happens to your child. What would you feel? Would you still consider it as 'gurauan?

Kids are so unbelieveable nowadays.

"Gurauan Rakan Melampau"

KUALA LUMPUR: Gara-gara gurauan nakal mahu memberikan RM2 jika rakan sekelas berani menumbuk dinding sebanyak 35 kali, seorang murid perempuan tahun lima di bandar raya ini dicabul termasuk diraba payudaranya oleh temannya itu selepas dia gagal menunaikannya.

Malah, kanak-kanak perempuan yang hanya mahu dikenali sebagai Wati, berkata tiga lagi rakan lelaki yang lain turut ‘tumpang sekaki’ dengan mengejek sesuatu mengenai payudaranya.

Dalam kejadian Oktober tahun lalu itu katanya, dia berseloroh dengan rakan lelaki di kelasnya yang ‘tunjuk kuat’ supaya menumbuk dinding kelas itu sebanyak 35 kali jika benar-benar gagah. “Ketika itu guru tiada di kelas. Saya katakan akan beri RM2 jika mereka berani menumbuk dinding itu. Bagaimanapun, tiada seorang daripada mereka berani menyahut cabaran saya itu. “Saya kemudian pergi ke tandas sebelum kembali ke kelas. Seorang daripada rakan kelas lelaki itu datang kepada saya sambil menunjukkan penumbuknya yang merah kerana mendakwa menumbuk dinding. Oleh itu, dia menuntut RM2 seperti dijanjikan.

“Tetapi saya katakan padanya bahawa dia tidak melakukan aksi tumbuk depan saya dan menipu. Namun, dia marah sebelum meminta juga RM2 itu. “Saya kemudian beri dia tidak sampai RM2 dan dia marah sebelum bertindak meraba payudara saya,” katanya yang trauma dengan kejadian sehinggakan terpaksa meminta ayahnya menukarkan dia ke sekolah lain. Katanya, dia merayu supaya tidak diperlakukan sebegitu namun tidak diendahkan malah tiga lagi rakan lelaki yang lain membuat riuh-rendah sambil mengatakan sesuatu mengenai payudaranya. “Sejak kejadian itu dan hari berikutnya saya bimbang untuk ke sekolah. Takut kejadian itu berulang. Apatah lagi, budak lelaki di kelas masih mengganggu saya dengan perkataan lucah,” katanya. Sementara itu, bapa mangsa, berkata dia kecewa dengan pihak sekolah kerana tidak mengambil tindakan sewajarnya terhadap empat murid lelaki yang melakukan gangguan seksual terhadap anak sulungnya itu. Malah, katanya, dia terpaksa menukarkan anaknya itu dan seorang lagi anak perempuannya awal tahun ini ke sekolah khas untuk perempuan kerana mangsa takut jika berjumpa lelaki. “Apa yang menghampakan, guru besar dan guru hal ehwal murid sekolah itu mengatakan ia hanya gurauan antara kanak-kanak,” katanya

Tambah Waktu BM dan BI

2010-03-29T09:11:00.002+08:00

KUALA LUMPUR: Mulai 2011, Kabinet bersetuju menambah waktu pembelajaran Bahasa Malaysia dan Bahasa Inggeris di Sekolah Kebangsaan dan Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan, kata Timbalan Perdana Menteri, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

“Semalam (kelmarin) kita bawa pada Kabinet untuk mendapatkan pandangan dan memang (ia akan dilaksanakan) mulai 2011.

“Selaras dengan dasar itu kita mengambil langkah untuk mempertingkatkan penguasaan Bahasa Malaysia dan Bahasa Inggeris, Sekolah Kebangsaan dan Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan.

“Kabinet bersetuju untuk kita menambah waktu. Di Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan, kita tambah 60 minit di tahap satu dan 90 minit di tahap dua.

“Untuk Bahasa Inggeris di Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan, kita tambah lagi 60 minit iaitu penambahan 100 peratus daripada yang sekarang 60 minit dan di tahap dua tambah 30 minit lagi.

“Demikian juga di Sekolah Kebangsaan, masa Bahasa Inggeris juga kita tambah 90 minit di tahap satu dan 90 minit di tahap dua,” katanya pada sidang media selepas melancarkan Pesta Buku Antarabangsa Kuala Lumpur (PBAKL) ke-29 di Pusat Dagangan Dunia Putra (PWTC), di sini, semalam.

Pada majlis itu Muhyiddin turut melancarkan buku bertajuk “Najib: Rakyat Didahulukan Pencapaian Diutamakan” ditulis Aizuddin Muhammad Muaz.

Buku berharga RM350 senaskhah itu yang diedarkan oleh Karisma Production Sdn Bhd memaparkan perjalanan Datuk Seri Najib Razak sejak beliau mula menceburi bidang politik hingga menjadi Perdana Menteri.

Muhyiddin yang juga Menteri Pelajaran berkata, walaupun waktu pembelajaran Bahasa Malaysia dan Bahasa Inggeris dipanjangkan, waktu persekolahan tetap tidak dipanjangkan, sebaliknya ada pengubahsuaian kurikulum di sekolah.

“Kita ada buat pengubahsuaian daripada segi kurikulum supaya lebih menyeronokkan. Ini selaras dengan perubahan yang kita cadangkan untuk melaksanakan dasar baru kita. Kita ada pengubahsuaian waktu mana kita tambah, waktu yang kita kurangkan,” katanya.

Sementara itu, menyentuh mengenai jumlah buku di perpustakaan sekolah, beliau mengalu-alukan syarikat menaja dan menyediakan bahan bacaan bawah program tanggungjawab sosial korporat (CSR).

Collect the bad habits that you couldn't bear to keep
Out of the woods but I love
A tree I used to lay beneath
Kiss teeth stained red
From a sour bottle baby girl
With eyes the size of baby worlds

Prettier and younger, but not any better off
Bullet proof loneliness

The best way to make it through
With hearts and wrists in tact
Is to realize two out of three ain't bad

"PPSMI ends?"

2009-07-08T18:55:00.003+08:00

I found these two articles in the "Mutakhir" section of BERITA HAIRAN.
First, this one

Kabinet lulus Matematik, Sains dalam Bahasa Melayu

PUTRAJAYA: Kabinet hari ini meluluskan pengajaran dan pembelajaran Matematik dan Sains di sekolah kebangsaan dan menengah dilaksanakan dalam Bahasa Melayu berkuatkuasa pada 2012.

Timbalan Perdana Menteri yang juga Menteri Pelajaran, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, berkata pelaksanaannya bermula berperingkat mulai 2012 bagi Tahun Satu dan Tahun Empat, Tingkatan Satu dan Tingkatan Empat.

Beliau berkata, bagi Sekolah Jenis Kebangsaan (SJK) Cina dan Tamil, pengajaran dan pembelajaran dua subjek itu akan dilaksanakan dalam bahasa ibunda masing-masing.

Serentak itu, katanya, kerajaan memutuskan pengajaran dan pembelajaran Bahasa Inggeris di semua peringkat persekolahan perlu dimantapkan lagi.

“Pelaksanaan keputusan Kabinet bagi pengajaran dan pembelajaran Sains dan Matematik ini akan berkuatkuasa pada 2012.

“Ia bermula secara berperingkat dan perubahan ini tidak membabitkan tingkatan enam dan matrikulasi,” katanya pada sidang media khas bagi mengumumkan keputusan Kabinet itu di sini.

Bagi memastikan pelaksanaannya tidak menjejaskan pencapaian murid yang sedang mengikuti pengajaran dan pembelajaran Sains dan Matematik dalam bahasa Inggeris (PPSMI), Muhyiddin berkata, pengajaran dan peperiksaan kedua-dua mata pelajaran terbabit akan dilaksanakan dalam dwi bahasa sehingga kumpulan terakhir PPSMI tamat pada 2014.

Beliau berkata, kerajaan mengambil keputusan itu selepas meneliti secara terperinci hasil kajian dan pemantauan berhubung PPSMI, sama ada yang dilaksanakan Kementerian Pelajaran atau badan bebas sejak dasar terbabit mula diperkenalkan pada 2003.

Katanya, hasil kajian itu menunjukkan dasar itu tidak pernah dilaksanakan seperti yang dihasratkan.

“Apa yang dilaksanakan ialah PPSMI/BM, di mana guru mengajar pelajaran Sains dan matematik dalam bahasa Inggeris dan Bahasa Melayu,” katanya.

Then comes another.

Pemansuhan PPSMI bukan pertimbangan politik: Muhyiddin

PUTRAJAYA: Keputusan kerajaan memansuhkan dasar Pengajaran dan Pembelajaran Sains dan Matematik dalam Bahasa Inggeris (PPSMI) dibuat berdasarkan pertimbangan objektif dan bukannya politik, kata Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin hari ini.

Timbalan Perdana Menteri berkata kerajaan membuat keputusan itu berdasarkan kepada kajian saintifik terhadap perkara itu.

"Ia dibuat bukan kerana faktor politik atau pilihan raya kecil Manik Urai. Ia dibuat kerana kepentingan negara," katanya kepada pemberita ketika mengumumkan pemansuhan itu di Kementerian Pelajaran di sini.

Muhyiddin, yang juga Menteri Pelajaran, berkata keputusan kerajaan itu sejajar dengan kajian Unesco yang menunjukkan adalah lebih mudah pelajar menguasai ilmu di peringkat awal persekolahan dengan menggunakan bahasa ibunda.

Beliau berkata walaupun kerajaan sedar mengenai kelemahan pelajaran dalam menguasai bahasa Inggeris di peringkat awal PPSMI, dasar itu hanya ditukar sekarang selepas selesai pusingan enam tahun pelaksanaannya. - Bernama

I'm not going to elaborate more as the teachers are the closest being to the PPSMI. We are the ones who are running it.

If I'm not mistaken, the PPSMI was launched on 2003. So if you do your math, the PPSMI had been in our system for almost six years now.
I heard we need more than 5 years to 'test' something. We don't do this kind of thing with the education system, overnight. We need to plan, we need pioneers.

All I can say is the education system in our beloved country had been badly politicized.

At the end of the day, the victim is still us and our young generations. Just my 2 cents though.

"Stress Guru Membimbangkan"

2009-07-07T00:54:00.000+08:00

Stres guru membimbangkan — Akibat banyak perubahan dan bebanan tugas yang keter
Posted on Friday, August 19 @ 09:17:38 MYT

KUALA LUMPUR 18 Ogos – Kesatuan Perkhidmatan Perguruan Kebangsaan (NUTP) mendakwa tahap stres di kalangan guru-guru di negara ini semakin menjadi-jadi dan membimbangkan ekoran bebanan tugas yang meningkat.

Presiden NUTP, Ismail Nihat berkata, guru-guru kini terpaksa berhadapan dengan perubahan demi perubahan dalam bidang pendidikan sehingga wujudnya beban yang keterlaluan.

“Apabila ada pegawai baru di Pejabat Pendidikan Daerah (PPD), Jabatan Pendidikan Negeri atau di peringkat kementerian, banyaklah idea dan tugasan baru yang harus dipikul oleh guru.

“Bebanan ini terus berlaku dalam keadaan jumlah guru yang tidak seimbang dengan peningkatan jumlah murid, projek banyak tetapi guru sedikit,” katanya pada sidang akhbar yang turut dihadiri Setiausaha Agungnya, Lok Yim Pheng di sini, hari ini.

Sidang akhbar itu bertujuan menjelaskan beberapa isu melibatkan golongan guru yang akan dibentangkan pada Persidangan Perwakilan NUTP ke-17 yang bermula esok hingga 22 Ogos ini.

Menurut Ismail, walaupun kedengaran pelik tetapi semua pihak harus menerima hakikat bahawa masalah yang dihadapi oleh golongan guru menjurus kepada tekanan mental dan emosi berbanding fizikal.

“Ini menjejaskan keupayaan dan kepercayaan mereka terhadap diri sendiri untuk mencapai matlamat melahirkan pelajar yang cemerlang dan berkualiti,” katanya.

Selain itu, beliau menggariskan beberapa faktor yang menyebabkan stres di kalangan guru iaitu:

* Harapan ibu bapa terlalu tinggi kepada guru kerana sering mahukan pencapaian terbaik pelajar.

* Masalah disiplin pelajar yang semakin sukar dikawal termasuk melibatkan keselamatan guru.

* Pelajar-pelajar semakin cerdik berbanding guru ekoran akses pendidikan yang semakin canggih dan meluas.

Sehubungan itu katanya, NUTP akan bekerjasama dengan Jabatan Perkhidmatan Awam (JPA) menjalankan satu kajian khas mengenai tahap sebenar tekanan di kalangan guru.

“Kita sedang berunding dengan JPA tetapi kami sudah menyediakan set soalan khas untuk menjayakan kajian tersebut.

“Sebagai permulaan kita akan agih-agihkannya kepada 220 delegasi yang menghadiri persidangan itu nanti,” ujarnya.

Tambah beliau, kajian itu penting untuk membantu kerajaan meneliti langkah-langkah penyelesaian yang sesuai.

Do You Know What I Am Doing?

2009-04-29T02:21:00.001+08:00

A beautfiul woman walks into a doctors office and the doctor is awestruck. All his professionalism goes out the window. He tells her to take off her pants and he starts rubbing her thighs.

He says "Do you know what I am doing?"
She replies "Yes, checking for abnormalities."

He tells her to take off her shirt and bra and he starts rubbing her breats.

He says "Do you know what I am doing now?"
She replies "Yes, checking for lumps and cancer."

Finally, he tells he takes off her panties, lays her on the table, gets on top of her, and starts having sex with her.

He says "Do you know what I am doing now?"
She replies "Yes, getting herpies. That's why I am here."

100th Post!

2009-04-12T16:15:00.005+08:00

Greetings,

Here we are! This is the 100th blogpost!

I can't recall when did we start this whole thing.
I don't mind being the one who is overly excited here. But somehow I'd proven that I do cherish the moments we share back in the Maktab and came to this length to make us still checking out each other. At least in the cyberworld.

After four years, many things had changed. Life goes on and we never knew what will happen next. I just want my friends to know that I am terribly and truthfully sorry for all the wrongs that I'd done. And it has been a great pleasure to know you all and to be at your very existence.

Bah macam sa mo tulis nota bunuh diri pula. Buduh.

I want to share this funny joke with you.

Budin seorang yang amat benci pada kucing. Entah apa salah dan silap
yang dibuat kucing pada dirinya pun tiada siapa yang tahu.

Namun jodoh pertemuan ketentuan Tuhan, Budin bertemu jodoh dengan
Gayah yang amat suka dan mendalam cintanya pada kucing. Sebelum
berkahwin dengan Budin lagi Gayah sudah membela seekor kucing siam.

Maka dari hari ke hari, bertambah benci dan meluatlah si Budin pada
kucing terutama si Tompok, kucing siam isterinya. Apa tidaknya, Gayah
lebih memberikan tumpuan kepada si Tompok, membuatkan Budin
beranggapan, Gayah lebih sayang si Tompok berbanding dirinya.

Tidak mahu terus tertekan, Budin nekad untuk mengusir si Tompok dari
hidup dia dan isterinya.
Ketika isterinya sedang asyik mandi, Budin tanpa was2 menangkap si
Tompok, disumbatkan ke dalam karung beras dan tanpa berlengah terus
merempit motor kapcainya sejauh 10km dari rumahnya , lalu dihumbanlah
si Tompok ke semak tanpa belas kasihan. Dengan hati gembira, baliklah dia ke
rumah dengan siulan mengikut rentak lagu Cindai nyanyian Siti
Nurhaliza.

Tapi, kegembiraan hanya sementara. Setibanya dia di rumah, si Tompok
dengan sombong bongkaknya melanggok depan pintu lagaknya menyambut
kepulangan Budin. Sakit hati Budin tak dapat digambarkan.

Esoknya si Budin meneruskan rancangan jahatnya lagi. Kali ini lebih
jauh dibawanya si Tompok, 20 km dari rumahnya. Tetapi seperti semalam,
si Tompok berjaya mendahuluinya pulang ke rumah. Budin tidak putus asa
begitu sahaja,
alang-alang menyeluk pekasam, biar sampai ke pangkal lengan bisik
hatinya.

Kali ini, tidak sekadar hendak membuang si Tompok, tapi dibawanya si
Tompok pusing-pusing dahulu dengan harapan si Tompok keliru dan tidak
akan berjaya balik ke rumah. Habis semua jalan ditempuh, sekijap ke
kiri, sikijap ke kanan, yang lurus, yang bengkok, segala corner habis
dirempitnya dan akhirnya dibuanglah si Tompok begitu sahaja.

Selang berapa minit kemudian, Budin menelefon Gayah...

Budin: Ayang, Tompok ada kat rumah tak?, tanya Budin dengan penuh

suspen lagi berdebar-debar...

Gayah: Ada, ada dekat depan pintu tu ha~ Kenapa? tanya Gayah

keheranan.

Budin: Panggil dia! herdik Budin dengan nada yang tinggi...

Gayah: Kenapa? tanya Gayah lagi.

Budin: Aku nak tanya dia, bagaimana nak balik ke rumah. Aku sesat ni!

Lily Allen - The Fear

2009-03-28T13:05:00.001+08:00

Greetings,

Listen to this song. It is brilliant!

Lily Allen - The Fear

I want to be rich and I want lots of money
I don’t care about clever I don’t care about funny
I want loads of clothes and f***loads of diamonds
I heard people die while they are trying to find them

I’ll take my clothes off and it will be shameless
‘Cuz everyone knows that’s how you get famous
I’ll look at the sun and I’ll look in the mirror
I’m on the right track yeah I’m on to a winner

Chorus
I don’t know what’s right and what’s real anymore
I don’t know how I’m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
‘Cuz I’m being taken over by The Fear

Life’s about film stars and less about mothers
It’s all about fast cars and passing each other
But it doesn’t matter cause I’m packing plastic
and that’s what makes my life so f***ing fantastic

And I am a weapon of massive consumption
and its not my fault it’s how I’m program to function
I’ll look at the sun and I’ll look in the mirror
I’m on the right track yeah I’m on to a winner

Chorus
I don’t know what’s right and what’s real anymore
I don’t know how I’m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
‘Cuz I’m being taken over by The Fear

Bridge
Forget about guns and forget ammunition
Cause I’m killing them all on my own little mission
Now I’m not a saint but I’m not a sinner
Now everything is cool as long as I’m getting thinner

Chorus
I don’t know what’s right and what’s real anymore
I don’t know how I’m meant to feel anymore
When we think it will all become clear
‘Cause I’m being taken over by fear

Jokes with Point To Ponders

2009-03-25T02:36:00.003+08:00

Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.

The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.

When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbour.

Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'

After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.

The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.

When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'

'It was Bob the next door neighbor,' she replies.

'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'

Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.

Lesson 2:

A priest offered a Nun a lift.
She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.

The priest nearly had an accident.

After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.
The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak.'

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way.

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129. It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'
Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.
Lesson 3:

A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.

They rub it and a Genie comes out.
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas, driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'
Puff! She's gone.

'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'

Puff! He's gone.

'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.'

Moral of the story:
Always let your boss have the first say.

Lesson 4:

An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.

A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

Lesson 5:

A turkey was chatting with a bull.
'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'
'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.

Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story:
Bull Shit might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there.

Lesson 6:

A little bird was flying south for the winter. It was so cold the bird froze and fell to the ground into a large field.

While he was lying there, a cow came by and dropped some dung on him.

As the frozen bird lay there in the pile of cow dung, he began to realize how warm he was.

The dung was actually thawing him out!

He lay there all warm and happy, and soon began to sing for joy.
A passing cat heard the bird singing and came to investigate.

Following the sound, the cat discovered the bird under the pile of cow dung, and promptly dug him out and ate him.
Morals of the story:

(1) Not everyone who shits on you is your enemy.

(2) Not everyone who gets you out of shit is your friend.

(3) And when you're in deep shit, it's best to keep your mouth shut!

Euro English?

2009-03-24T04:48:00.006+08:00

Greetings,

Take a look at this. Very interesting!

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, the British Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5- year phase-in plan that would become known as ‘Euro-English’ .

In the first year, ’s’ will replace the soft ‘c’. Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard ‘c’ will be dropped in favour of ‘k’. This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome ‘ph’ will be replaced with ‘f’. This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where! more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent ‘e’ in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing ‘th’ with ‘z’ and ‘w’ with ‘v’.

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary ‘o’ kan be dropd from vords kontaining ‘ou’ and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil
sensi bl riten styl.

Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas.

If zis mad you smil, pleas pas on to oza pepl.

Imagine if we are going to talk like zat?

Happy Holidays

2009-03-13T13:16:00.004+08:00

Greetings,

I'm lucky when one of my new friends from the interiors is a keen downloader.
He is from Tawau and only known as Mat. He even uses a version of windows which I never seen before. Have you ever heard of "Windows Darklite?".

And he gave me some gigabytes of movies a couple days ago.
Ong Bak 2, The Legend Of Chun Li, The Slumdog Millionaire etc.
OK I'm not proud that I have downloaded copies. But I get to see them before they actually come in DVDs. I know which ones I'll buy later then.

And I tell you, that Chun Li is kind of... boring!

The plots are very-very weak. The story doesn't make sense. What a pity, the film is not kind of 'low budget', they can do better than that. They have, I mean, class B actors?
I love Kristin Kreuk and Moon Bloodgood.

Balrog is just a big guy who laughs a lot (no boxing at all!), Vega is Taboo from Black Eyed Peas and Chun Li kicked his ass just like that (a very very short and awful fight scene) and not to mention his mask is just super BIG.
The costumes are all wrong. Come on!

But what do I have to lose? My time? Lol!

OK let us wait for another movie then.

I can't believe that Christian Bale is going to play John Connor in this movie. And surely, he will use his weird 'Batman growl' again.

All in all, happy holidays people! Take care and all the best

Greetings,

This issue is chilli hot recently!
Click on this image below to read "Mengapa Kami Bantah PPSMI"

Do you agree?

My 2 cents are,

1) The government should TRY OUT the PPSMI before implementing it. Especially in rural schools.

2) The government must ask those who are going to implement it in schools. (Ask the teachers whether PPSMI is a good idea or not)

3) If the government is to implement PPSMI anyway, they should do it step by step, from urban to rural schools. (So that there will never be a 'culture shock')

4) I must say, as an English teacher, "If it is already difficult to teach English to the rural pupils, how can they expect them to learn another subject using the language?"

5) Even some teachers are having problems USING the LANGUAGE. (Lol!)

6) Come on, the Thais learn Maths & Science in Thai, the Indonesians in Indonesian, and so on. If I can teach using my pupils' native language, (if I can speak their language) I WILL!

I know there are also teachers who oppose the PPSMI and those who support it.
Before we fought among ourselves, say this and that, try this for size:

"If you are teaching in the urban areas, try teaching in the rural and then you can speak."

But at the end of the day, we are just a bunch of KULIs and we must not be against the government right?
Even though I always say it is actually the people's money that is used to pay my salary (through taxes and all) and not the government's!

Education in Malaysia truly suck! (as long as it is politicized by our blood sucking politicians)

Right now, I'm anxious about this!

I'd seen the trailer and I'm not sure about it. The scenes were awesome but I'm still skeptical. In fact I bet everybody is.
It is like Chun Li, is not wearing her 'gear'.... hehehe..

Chun Li should look like this

but Lana, opps, I mean Kristin Kreuk is wearing some kind of tight looking black jacket and stuff. Not the real thing lah.
Oh whatever. I'm not anxious like I am at the beginning of writing this down. Lol!

So, have a nice week ahead people.

My mum always enjoy feeding the hamsters.
I have 5 hamsters so far (1 grumpy female senior, a 'gadis sunti' and three little brats)

Look at the 'gadis sunti' (actually this hamster belongs to my niece, Zoe and she named her "Mischa") eating a 'kacang pindik'. She wants to put the whole thing into her mouth. I grab my Canon EOS 450D but it is so hard to take a good picture as the little brat can't stop moving. (so there goes the crappy snaps)

I love hamsters. I believe having pets keep my mind at ease (even though sometimes the cats break some of the things in the kitchen).

Meet Uncle Hussain - Lagu Untukmu

Tiada bintang
Dapat menerangkan hati yang telah dicela
Bagai ku lumpuh tak mampu berdiri
Aku tetap begini takkan berubah kerna

Aku tetap aku dan alur hidup mu bukanlah aku
Guna hati akal dan fikiranku
Berbeza engkau dan juga aku
Dua hati yang tak mungkin bersatu
Adakah aku
Hanya boneka yang sering engkau mainkan

Yang dikawal oleh jari jarimu
Ku punya hati dan perasaan
Pernahkah engkau fikirkan
Cukup-cukuplah oh cukuplah
Guna hati akal dan fikiranmu
Berbeza engkau dan juga aku
Dua hati yang tak mungkin bersatu

Tak tahan tak tahan
Sabarku tak tertahan
Melayan sikapmu perawan

Berbeza berbeza
Kau dan aku berbeza
Kita memang tak serupa

Bebaskan
Ku ingin dilepaskan
Kita tidak sehaluan

Cukuplah sudahlah
Sampai disini sahaja
Hubungan kita berdua

Rahsia Penjimatan Petrol

2008-10-13T18:11:00.004+08:00

Greetings,

Look at this video I found by Alif Firdaus. Rahsia Penjimatan Petrol!

To those who prefer reading, knock yourselves out

General Driving Tips

Avoid High Speeds - When driving on the motorway try and limit your speed as much as possible, the average car consumes 38% more fuel at 70pmh than it does at 50mph. Avoiding high speeds on motorways can save a lot of petrol. Around 50% of the power produced by the engine is used to overcome aerodynamic drag, drag increases rapidly above 70mph so you fuel consumption will suffer.

Smooth Driving - Acceleration and deceleration is what uses most fuel. For this reason you will improve your fuel consumption with smooth driving, heavy braking can be reduced by not tailgaiting and slowing down gradually when coming up to a red light. Also avoid heavy acceleration from the lights and try not to rev too much.

Use The Right Gear - To maintain low revs whilst driving you should change gear as soon as is practical. Engines run most economically at revs between 1,500 and 2,500 so aim to always be between this unless more power is required.

Don't Coast In Neutral - Modern cars automatically shut off fuel to the engine if you're not accelerating, but in neutral the engine will still use a tiny amount of petrol, so when cruising up to the lights keep the car in gear.

Close Your Window - If you are driving fast then don't have your windows open unless necessary. Having the windows open causes significant drag which increases fuel consumption.

What is a teacher?

2008-09-28T14:06:00.001+08:00

To a mind of flint, the teacher must be iron, and strike sparks.

To the empty pitcher, the teacher becomes a well. To the fallow mind, a planter of seeds.

To the cluttered mind, a gardener to weed, shape, and clear a space for growing.

To the lens, the teacher is light, and to the mind of light, a lens.

To the sleeper, the teacher is the wake-up call of birds at sunrise.

To clay, the teacher is potter, sculptor, and trainer in self-shaping.

To the wanderer, the teacher is a knowing guide.

To the developed mind, the teacher is colleague, listener, friend.

Harga petrol, diesel turun mulai esok: PM

2008-08-23T10:52:00.002+08:00

Greetings,
I copy-paste this from Berita HAIRAN.

PUTRAJAYA: Harga diesel dan petrol akan turun antara lapan sen dan 22 sen seliter mulai esok, demikian diumumkan Perdana Menteri, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi, hari ini.

Beliau berkata Kabinet memutuskan harga runcit petrol RON97 akan dikurangkan sebanyak 15 sen daripada RM2.70 seliter kepada RM2.55 seliter manakala harga runcit petrol RON92 akan dikurangkan sebanyak 22 sen iaitu daripada RM2.62 seliter kepada RM2.40 seliter.

"Harga runcit diesel akan dikurangkan sebanyak lapan sen seliter daripada RM2.58 seliter kepada RM2.50 seliter," katanya dalam kenyataan akhbar di sini.

Harga baru bahan api itu ditentukan dengan mengambil kira harga sebenar petrol daripada 1 Ogos hingga 21 Ogos serta penetapan subsidi 30 sen seliter manakala subsidi yang ditanggung oleh kerajaan untuk diesel berdasarkan harga baru itu ialah sebanyak 50 sen setiap liter.

"Jemaah Menteri hari ini mengambil keputusan untuk mempercepatkan tarikh penguatkuasaan pelarasan harga petrol baru," katanya.

Abdullah berkata keputusan itu diambil setelah mengambil kira penurunan harga minyak dunia sejak beberapa minggu kebelakangan ini serta peningkatan kadar inflasi ke tahap lebih tinggi pada bulan lalu.

Harga minyak mentah di pasaran dunia kini adalah sekitar AS$121 setong berbanding sebelum ini harganya melonjak sekitar AS$140 setong.

Indeks Harga Pengguna (CPI) bagi bulan lalu berbanding Julai 2007, yang diumumkan hari ini, meningkat pada kadar 8.5 peratus.

"Adalah menjadi harapan kerajaan agar pengurangan harga petrol dan diesel ini akan dapat membantu meringankan beban pengguna serta mengurangkan tekanan inflasi, terutama kepada golongan berpendapatan rendah dan sederhana.

"Keputusan kerajaan ini juga dibuat berdasarkan perkembangan ekonomi semasa," katanya.

Pada 1 Ogos, kerajaan mengumumkan bahawa harga runcit petrol sehingga akhir tahun ini akan diselaraskan pada 1 haribulan setiap bulan, dengan penetapan subsidi 30 sen seliter.

Namun, Perdana Menteri berkata formula pelarasan harga pam ini hanya akan dilaksanakan sekiranya harga runcit bagi petrol kurang daripada RM2.70 seliter.

Jangan jadikan pendidikan mainan politik

KUALA LUMPUR: Pemuda dan Puteri Umno hari ini meminta Menteri Besar Selangor, Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim supaya tidak menjadikan pendidikan sebagai permainan politik demi kepentingan peribadi.

Pengerusi Biro Pendidikan Pemuda Umno, Ahmad Ikmal Ismail, berkata kenyataan Abdul Khalid itu menunjukkan kepentingan politik Pakatan Rakyat yang sanggup menggadaikan orang Melayu dan Bumiputera untuk mendapat undi popular daripada kaum lain.

"Jangan jadikan pendidikan sebagai permainan politik yang boleh menggadai masa depan anak-anak Bumiputera.

"Kami tidak mahu mana-mana pihak lain mempersoalkan langsung isu hak keistimewaan orang Melayu seperti termaktub dalam Perlembagaan," katanya kepada pemberita pada sidang akhbar di sini.

Beliau mengulas kenyataan Abdul Khalid pada Ahad lalu yang menyarankan supaya Universiti Teknologi Mara (UiTM) membuka kuota 10 peratus kemasukan pelajarnya kepada bukan Bumiputera.

Sementara itu, Ketua Puteri Umno, Datuk Noraini Ahmad menyifatkan kenyataan Menteri Besar Selangor itu bersifat kurang ajar.

"Saya melihat kenyataan Menteri Besar itu kurang ajar kerana sudah termaktub dalam perlembagaan negara diperuntukkan UiTM untuk bumiputera, sikap beliau (Abdul Khalid) seperti buat tak faham atau kemungkinan dorongan orang lain yang boleh dipersoalkan," katanya kepada pemberita selepas merasmikan program persediaan 80 pelajar ke Russia "Surviving Soviet" di sini. - Bernama

Topi VS Seluar Dalam

2008-07-19T15:41:00.002+08:00

Greetings,
I'm feeling dizzy. But this one gave me a good laugh

Pada Suatu Hari, Usop Jendul Nak Belikan Hadiah Harijadi Untuk Kekasih Barunya, Mek Ayu. So Si Usop Ni Pun Ajaklah Adik Perempuan Sepupunya Untuk Temankan Dia Shopping Kat SOGO. Oleh Kerana Mereka Baru Dua Bulan Berkawan, Jadi Si Usop Jendul Membuat Keputusan Untuk Membelikan Mek Ayu Satu Topi Kain Fesyen Baru Saje, Supaya Taklah Nampak Dia Beriya-Iya Sangat. Adik Sepupu Usop Pulak Pegi Beli Satu Seluar Dalam Hitam Berbunga-Bunga Baru Sebab Ada Sale Hari Itu. Masa Membayar, Dengan Tak Sengaja Cashier Dah Tertukar Kotak Topi Kain Hitam Tu Dengan Seluar Dalam Hitam Adik Sepupu Usop!

Selepas Membayar Usop Jendul Pun Terus Pergi Kaunter Hadiah Dan Suruh Diorang Bungkus Tanpa Check Dulu. Kemudian Dia Balik Ke Rumah Dan Tulis Surat Untuk Mek Ayu Serta Mengeposkannya Bersama Hadiah Yang Dah Tersilap Tu.

Surat Yang Dia Tulis Tu Berbunyi Cam Nie :

Istimewa Untuk Kekasihku Mek Ayu,

Usop Pilih Hadiah Nie Kerana Ayu Tak Pernah Pakai Bila Kita Keluar Jalan-Jalan Dan Selalu Mengadu Sebab Panas. Kalau Bukan Sebab Adik Sepupu Usop, Usop Dah Nak Beli Yang Lagi Jarang Supaya Kalau Berpeluh Tak Lembab Sangat. Tapi Usop Tengok Adik Sepupu Usop Pakai Yang Ada Bunga Tu Nampak Cantik Pulak. Usop Pilih Warna Hitam Tu Supaya Tak Nampak Kotor. Promoter Yang Jual Tu Tunjuk Dia Punya Dah Seminggu Tak Basuh. Nampak Elok Aje! Usop Suruh Dia Try Ayu Punya Sebab Saiz Promoter Tu Lebih Kurang Ayu Je. Memang Cantik Dan Menarik! Harapnya Ayu Suka Sebab Usop Rasa Memang Sesuai Dengan Ayu. Tak Sabar Rasanya Nak Tengok Ayu Pakai Depan Usop. Usop Harap Ayu Akan Pakai Untuk Usop Hujung Minggu Nie.

Salam Sayang Untuk Kekasihku, Mek Ayu...

P/S : Kalau Ayu Nak Pakai, Usop Nampak Stail Terbaru Ialah Dengan Melipat Bahagian Depan Dan Menampakkan Sedikit Rambut.

Yang Menyayangimu,

Usop Jendul

Tips On How You Can REDUCE Fuel Consumption.

2008-06-16T01:17:00.001+08:00

Hi guys, this is a MALAS entry, I copied them all from this website --> http://jameslimblog.blogspot.com/ <--- (not clickable - just surfing around)

* Slow down. As speed increases, fuel economy decreases exponentially.
* Check your tyre pressure. Under-inflated tyres are one of the most commonly ignored causes of crummy mileage.
* Check your air filter. A dirty air filter restricts the flow of air into the engine, which harms performance and economy. Clogged air filters can cause up to a 10% increase in fuel consumption.
* Accelerate with care. Jack-rabbit starts are an obvious fuel-waster. Accelerate moderately so the transmission can shift up into the higher gears.
* Driving at a constant speed. A constant speed keeps gear shifting to a minimum and aids fuel economy.
* Pace your driving. If you accelerate to speed then have to brake right away, that's wasted fuel.
* Get back to nature. Consider shutting off the air conditioner, opening the windows and enjoying the breeze. It may be slightly warmer, but at lower speeds, you will save fuel.
* Windows up. Having the windows down at high speeds create aerodynamic drag that causes an engine to work harder. On the highway, this can decrease fuel economy by up to 10%.
* Wheel and tyre sizes. If your wheels and tyres are wider than the standard fittings, chances are they will create more rolling resistance and decrease fuel economy.
* Clean out your car. Remove excess items that you don't require having in the vehicle.
* Downsize. Smaller engine capacity cars are inherently more fuel-efficient.
* Don't drive. Take the train, carpool and consolidate your shopping trips. And before you get in your car, always ask yourself, "Is this trip really necessary?"
* Maintain your car. Keep your engine well tuned. Poorly tuned engines can increase fuel consumption by as much as 10% to 20%.
* Use overdrive gears. Overdrive gears improve the fuel economy of your car during highway driving. Your car's engine speed decreases when you use overdrive, reducing fuel consumption.
* Cruise control. Use cruise control on highway trips to maintain a constant speed.
* Anticipate driving situations. If you anticipate traffic conditions and don't tailgate, you can avoid unnecessary braking and acceleration, and improve your fuel economy by 5% to 10%.
* Avoid unnecessary idling. Turn off the engine during a lengthy wait. Unnecessary idling wastes fuel.
* Combining errands. Several short trips taken from a cold start can use twice as much fuel as one trip covering the same distance when the engine is warm.
* Leave early. Leave early for appointments and take a safe and slow drive. Speeding is not only dangerous but uneconomical.
* Fill up with a lower octane petrol. Buy the lowest grade or octane petrol appropriate for your car. Unless your car requires premium fuel, high octane fuel is a waste of money.
* Don't top off. Stop pumping at the first indication that your tank is full when the automatic nozzle clicks off.
* Tighten up that fuel lid cap. Fuel evaporates from your car's fuel tank if it has an escape. Avoid a loose, missing or damaged fuel cap.
* Park in the shade. The hot sun zaps fuel from your fuel tank. So park your car in the shade whenever possible.
* Avoid rush hour. Not only is stop-and-go traffic stressful and annoying, it's bad for your car's fuel economy. So if you can, avoid driving during rush hour.
* Removing the roof rack. A loaded roof rack increases your car's air drag and can pull down your car's mileage by 5%. Avoid carrying items on your car's roof whenever possible.
* Monitoring your fuel consumption. Start monitoring the amount of fuel you use. This will help you identify how and where you can save.
* Understanding wind resistance. The power to overcome air/wind resistance increases with speed. Because air resistance increases so rapidly with speed above 48km/h, it becomes a dominant limiting factor. Driving at 72km/h rather than 105km/h results in about one-third(1/3) the power to overcome wind resistance, or about one half the energy, and much greater fuel economy can be achieved. Increasing speed to 145km/h from 105km/h increases the power requirement by 2.6 times, the energy by 1.9 times, and drastically decreases fuel economy.
* Warming up your engine. Don't warm up your vehicle for more than 30 seconds. Most modern fuel-injected cars only need 30 seconds to warm.
* When to fuel up. Fill up on cool mornings or evenings. Fuel is denser when cold. Fuel pumps measure by volume, so if you pump when it's cold, you get more fuel.
* DO NOT PUMP TANK FULL OF PETROL. Many of us are not aware that the petrol kiosk pump has a return pipe-line(in black). When the petrol tank(in the car) reaches full level, there is a mechanism to trigger off the pump latch and at the same time a return-valve is opened(at the top of the pump station) to allow excess petrol to flow back into the sump. But the return petrol has already passed through the meter, meaning you are donating the petrol back to SHELL/CALTEX/MOBIL.

'Kiriman Dari Neraka'?

2008-06-03T17:14:00.003+08:00

Thanks for posting the link Mr. Silver.
I found this article on Harian Metro very amusing.

‘Kiriman dari neraka’
Oleh Ahmad Tajol Ansar Ibrahim
ahmadtajol@hmetro.com.my

KUALA LUMPUR: Pengguna komputer diingatkan lebih berhati-hati berikutan kemunculan sejenis virus yang mampu mengganggu sistem dan aplikasi komputer dikenali dengan ‘Virus 666’.

Kehadiran virus itu dapat dikesan pada pemacu utama C (C Drive) melalui fail bertajuk HELP.ME!!.html. Jika fail itu dibuka, satu fail lain akan muncul pada skrin komputer yang memaparkan perkataan ‘Kiriman Dari Neraka’ yang turut menyentuh beberapa isu, selain nama pelayan turut diletakkan di bahagian penjuru bawah fail itu.

Virus itu dikesan beberapa bulan lalu mula mengganggu dunia maya dan kebiasaannya dikenali dengan nama fail flash.10.exe.

Dipercayai semua sistem komputer boleh dijangkiti virus itu sebaik membuka fail mesej yang tertera ‘Kiriman dari Neraka’.

Beberapa cara dikenal pasti menjadi landasan utama penyebaran virus itu terutama ketika pengguna mengakses disket, cakera liut atau pemacu storan luaran yang berkemungkinan dijangkiti virus itu. Ia turut menyerang komputer ketika pengguna memuat turun program Internet.

Pengguna komputer diingatkan berwaspada dengan program atau fail mempunyai nama sambungan seperti .EXE, .VBS, .COM, .SYS selain nama fail sambungan seperti .doc, .xls dan .zip kerana virus itu kebiasaannya dikesan dalam keadaan itu.

Difahamkan, amalan menggunakan pemacu storan mudah alih tanpa mengimbasnya terlebih dahulu sebelum disambungkan ke komputer antara punca utama virus itu merebak.

Naib Presiden Dapat Vista Sdn Bhd dan pengasas dapat.com, Azli Paat, berkata virus itu boleh menyebabkan produktiviti sesebuah syarikat menurun berikutan ia mampu memperlahankan kelajuan sistem komputer.

“Sejurus dijangkiti, virus itu akan menyalin semula fail dalam fail sistem dalam kuantiti yang banyak, sekali gus menyebabkan proses membuka mana-mana program dalam komputer menjadi perlahan.

“Virus itu tidak dapat menghilangkan data, cuma kesannya dapat dilihat dari segi kelajuan kadar pemprosesan komputer, namun ia perlu diberi perhatian,” katanya.

Azli berkata, virus yang dipercayai berpunca daripada pemacu storan luaran itu turut mampu menjangkiti komputer lain jika tidak diimbas menggunakan sistem antivirus yang sentiasa dikemaskini.

“Pengguna boleh memuat turun sistem antivirus yang disediakan di Internet dan perlu memastikan sistem itu sentiasa dikemaskini bagi mengelak kejadian sama berulang,” katanya.

Sebelum ini, beberapa virus besar dikenal pasti seperti LoveBug dan King Trojan dikesan mengganggu sistem komputer pengguna selain beberapa virus lain yang memuat turun ‘diri’nya sendiri seperti Brontok dan Worm.

Antara tanda virus itu mula menyerang komputer ialah kelajuan RAM komputer mula menurun dan proses menutup semua tetingkap window menjadi perlahan selain pelbagai fail baru akan dicipta sendiri seperti Flash.10.exe, msconfig.com, cmd.com, ping.com, regedit.com, aweks.pikz, seram.pkz, msn.msn dan sebagainya.

Dunia perkomputeran sebelum ini pernah digemparkan dengan kehadiran virus ‘Melissa’ pada 1999 yang mampu mencipta fail “script.ini” terus ke direktori sembang maya melalui komputer yang dijangkiti virus sebelum menghantar dirinya sendiri melalu laman sembang kepada mangsa seterusnya, iaitu mereka yang memilih untuk bersembang melalui saluran sembang maya dengan komputer mangsa yang dijangkiti.

aweks.pikz? seram.pkz?
Is this virus made in Malaysia?
Mungkin mau 'celen' Brontok la aa?

What kind of antivirus you are using now? These days, people don't fancy those 'bulky' antivirus anymore. What I mean by 'bulky' is the software 'size' is too 'big'.
Sometimes, it takes about more than 100 Megabytes of your hard drive. And you have to set tons of settings. Try Norton yourself.

It is time for the simple antivirus time. Some examples are Kaspersky, AVIRA, AVG Antivirus etc.
Now, with all those antivirus, don't you wish you have only ONE that is working just fine?

So, what antivirus are you using?

Greetings,

If you know me really well, you'll surely know that I am an AUDIOSLAVE!
Music is one of the spices in life which is a NEED for me.
There is never been a DAY (as long as I can recall) that I live without it!

And recently, after watching JUNO, I found my favourite 'sub-genre' of my already favourite genre (which is known as 'indie'), and it is called "anti-folk".
Anti-folk songs are sung and 'actually recorded' by maintaining its 'raw' sound.
The singer's vocals may not be the greatest (makes you feel you can sing the song better). Personally, I think this the songs in this sub-genre are plain cute!

Greetings,

I'm proud to say that finally one of our X-PiPS male members (that excludes Tny!) OWN a Digital SLR camera!
And that person is not even AdyGator! Lol!

I remember my cousin AdyGator was so fond of taking pictures and all, he even bought a RM600/= 'analog' camera years back. The analog thing looks FUNNY now! and he doesn't give a rat's ass of what happened to it. He will say things like "entah di mana sudaitu".

And AdyGator was just having fun TAKING pictures of 'bebehs'. Well, that is like a small portion of photography by the way. (I think!)

Owning a DLSR, is every blogger cum photographer-wannabes dream!
It is my dream too. And if you are really into blogging, you'll come across tons of blogs with its blogger having DLSRs in their wishlists.

I learned that Mr. Silver bought this

(for more information on the D60, --> www.nikon.com.my)

SHIT! (this word reminds me of Lavender. LOL!)

That thing looks gorgeous! It's like, having Jessica Alba naked in front of you! *drool*

I just can't wait for the pictures!

BUSS! UPLOAD!

p/s, Setting new goal, having one as well. Soon ;)

Say what?

Don't tell me you guys don't watch Akademi Fantasia.
Well, I watched AF3. Didn't care much about the 4th and 5th.
We knew that Astro is sucking the viewers money and only stupid people will
cast VOTES to AF participants.

But what if one of the participants is actually, your family? Tia kira la
adik ka abang ka kakak ka kazen ka kazen lapan kali ka apa ka nini sebelah datuk posmen ipar duai punya bekas boipren ka,
I bet you'll watch his/her performance everytime it goes live TV right?
Ceh tida tinguk kunun. HAHAKHHKAhkHAKahkhakhak...

I have nothing to say actually. Just sharing this cute Youtube video of Stacy saying the WORD! bila melatah.

Forgive her. That's our way of melatah kan?
Tu belum lagi. Kalau auntie sia, siap datuk nenek punya pun kena sebut.

David Cook - You'll Always Be My Baby

Greetings,

I'm currently in love with this song.
Bejiwang kita skijap. Karl! Off dulu tu trance sama tu System Of A Down ko.
Bejiwang-jiwang dlu kita.

And most importantly, ini bukan lagu GAY aaaa

Here's the lyric if you want to sing and shower other people with some tempias

We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine
Now you want to be free
So I’ll let you fly
‘Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die no

Chorus
You’ll always be a part of me
I’m part of your indefinitely
Girl don’t you know you can’t escape me
Ooh darling ’cause you’ll always be my baby
And we’ll linger on
Time can’t erase a feeling this strong
No way you’re ever gonna shake me
Oh darling ’cause you’ll always be my baby

I ain’t gonna cry no
And i won’t beg you to stay
If you’re determined to leave girl
I will not stand in your way
But inevitably, you’ll be back again
‘Cause you know in your heart babe
Our love will never end no, no

Chorus

I know that you’ll be back girl
When your days and your nights get a little bit colder oh
I know that you’ll be right back
Oh baby believe me it’s only a matter of time

Chorusx2

Greetings,

Have you ever heard someone says "hey! i love The Simpsons! in fact, I got the Simpsons tv theme for my mobile phone ringtone"

And then you feel the urge of wanting a certain movie theme as your mobile phone ringtone. I would like to put "Gaban" theme song. I know maybe you already had that "Gaban" theme song somewhere in the layers of your mobile phone small hard disk / memory card.

How about other theme songs? I'd come across this Youtube video, a classic!
Reminds me of my childhood.
The song in that opening theme is called "Choushinsei Flashman" and if you feel
like singing, here the link to the lyric. Lol!

"Crash! Crash! Crash! Kiken no imi nante..", mati lah wkaakka..

OK, here's what you can do. Download the Freez FLV to mp3 converter software HERE.
(You can download other softwares too, like the FLV to AVI/WMV/MPG converter etc)

They are all FREE and after you've got them, if you don't like any kinds of "bikin kacau" stuff coming to your browser etc, just ignore the "update" thingy everytime you run the software.

Now you can have FLASHMAN theme as your ringtone!
Palan-palan! I'm converting all these old time tv themes for my upcoming mobile phone. Right now I'm using this Nokia 1650, NO FUN AT ALL!

cheers

Greetings,

It has been a long time I weep while watching a movie.
I knew I wept when I see Shawshank's Redemption,
I knew I wept when Tom Hanks shout "WILSON!!!!!! WILSON!!!" in Castaway
and after a long time, not a single SAD movie made me go boohoo.

Then I watched this --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midnight_Sun_(film)
Taiyou No Uta or Midnight Sun, starring; Yui.

It was a Japanese movie for heaven's sake! I watch it and felt something
stuck in my throat as I saw Kaoru Amane's teary eyes.
The fact that she cannot play her favourite guitar anymore, she's losing
her strength. And how brave she is, facing the fact that she is dying.

Oh this movie has got the better of me. It is just another story,
but it is the one story I'm going to cherish, and remember that it has touched me.

aftermath,
"sa gumpul-gumpul duit, sa mau p Jipun. mo pi jumpa si Yui, pulang balik.
kamu rasa, murni ka sa punya cita-cita ni?"

P/S, AND OH! SHE'S KAWAIIIIII.........

I'm going to name my first baby girl, YUI!
