Android Development Basic - Setting up Windows's environment variables

When preparing a new development environment for android development, following environment variables are essential to be setup.

1) JAVA_HOME (e.g. C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24), // this is pointing to the Java JDK directory.
2) ANDROID_HOME (e.g. C:\Android\android-sdk), // this is pointing to you installed Android SDK directory.
3) PATH (e.g. c:\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools;   // this will be pointing to the common tools that you going to use in command prompt.
              c:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_24\bin;
              %ANDROID_HOME%\tools; )

With the above environment variable setup, you can get started easily with android development.

Fixing Visual Studio 2008 SP1 constant crashing.

2011-02-07T10:23:00.002+08:00

While undoubtedly Visual Studio 2008 is a great development tools, it has been reported to be constant crashing and cause the IDE to shutdown unexpectedly and this may causes unsaved work losses.

An description from the MSDN KB state the following:
VS2008 SP1: In Visual Studio 2008 SP1, having windows in non-default locations, for example after docking and undocking windows, when switching between debugging and designing or switching to/from full screen, can result in a crash of the Visual Studio IDE.

This Hotfix was updated on May 11, 2009 to address a shortcoming with the original Hotfix (published Mar 12, 2009) whereby XAML Intellisense may cease functioning after applying the Hotfix. If you have applied the original Hotfix, it is not necessary to uninstall it to apply the updated (V2) Hotfix.

Install Husband 1.0þ (Joke)

2009-10-28T17:35:00.001+08:00

INSTALLING HUSBAND
A woman writes to the IT Technical support Guy

Dear Tech Support,

Last year I upgraded from Boyfriend 5.0 to Husband 1.0 and I noticed a distinct slowdown in the overall system performance, particularly in the flower and jewellery applications, which operated flawlessly under Boyfriend 5.0.

In addition, Husband 1.0 uninstalled many other valuable programs, such as
Romance 9.5 and Personal Attention 6.5, and then installed undesirable programs such as NEWS 5..0, MONEY 3.0 and CRICKET 4.1.

Conversation 8.0 no longer runs, and House cleaning 2.6 simply crashes the system..

Please note that I have tried running Nagging 5..3 to fix these problems, but to no avail.

What can I do?

Signed,
____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________

Reply

Dear Madam,

First, keep in mind, Boyfriend 5.0 is an Entertainment Package, while Husband 1.0 is an operating system.

Please enter command: ithoughtyoulovedme. html and try to download Tears 6.2 and do not forget to install the Guilt 3.0 update.
If that application works as designed, Husband1..0 should then automatically run the applications Jewellery 2.0 and Flowers 3.5..

However, remember, overuse of the above application can cause Husband 1.0 to default to Silence 2.5 or Beer 6.1.
Please note that Beer 6.1 is a very bad program that will download the Snoring Loudly Beta.

Whatever you do, DO NOT under any circumstances install Mother-In-Law 1.0 (it runs a virus in the background that will eventually seize control of all your system resources.)

In addition, please do not attempt to reinstall the Boyfriend 5.0 program. These are unsupported applications and will crash Husband 1.0.

In summary, Husband 1.0 is a great program, but it does have limited memory and cannot learn new applications quickly.
You might consider buying additional software to improve memory and performance.
We recommend: Cooking 3.0 and Hot Looks 7.7.

Good Luck Madam!

Creating a dummy file of specific size using Command Prompt

2009-08-27T09:48:00.001+08:00

Creating a dummy file of specific size using Command Prompt

To do this, we can use a tool in Windows (XP and above) call fsutil.exe command-line tool

Command syntax:

fsutil file createnew DummyFileName DummyFileSize

DummyFileName = the desire file name
DummyFileSize = the desire file size (in bytes)

Detail Info :
==========================================
C:\>fsutil file /?
/? is an invalid parameter.
---- FILE Commands Supported ----

findbysid Find a file by security identifier
queryallocranges Query the allocated ranges for a file
setshortname Set the short name for a file
setvaliddata Set the valid data length for a file
setzerodata Set the zero data for a file
createnew Creates a new file of a specified size

Using batch file to redial a DialUp connection

2009-08-12T06:31:00.001+08:00

Create a batch file with the following content

@echo off

@echo "Disconnecting Connection"

rasphone -h "Vodaphone Broadband"

@echo "Waiting for 3 seconds"

timeout /t 3 /NOBREAK

@echo "Connecting to Connection"

rasphone -d "Vodaphone Broadband"

Just replace Vodaphone Broadband with your dial up connection name, and that should do it.

In case the timeout doesn't work, just replace it with "ping -n 10 127.0.0.1 > NUL", this will use

"ping" to create delay.

生活小常識

2009-07-07T09:46:00.001+08:00

1. 起床先疊被
人體本身— 也是一個污染源。在一夜的睡眠中，人體的皮膚會排出大量水蒸氣，使被子不同程度地受潮。人的呼吸和分佈全身的毛孔排出的化學物質有145種，從汗液中蒸發的化學物質有 151種。被子吸收或吸附水分和氣體，如不讓其散發出去，起床就立即疊被，易使被子受潮及受化學物質污染。

2.生活常識.......
水果常常會腐爛 , 人們就用刀把腐爛部分挖掉, 把剩下沒有腐爛的部分趕快吃了。其實﹐這是錯誤的。因為盡管剩下的未腐爛﹐但其中大部分已被微生物代謝過程中產生的有害物質侵蝕 , 特別是真菌在水果上繁殖加快 , 有部分真菌在繁殖的過程中會產生有毒物質。
這些有毒物質可以從腐爛部分通過果汁向未腐爛部分擴散﹐使未腐爛部分同腐爛部分含同樣微生物代謝物﹐尤其是真菌毒素 , 有些會致癌。

3.不吃早餐
不吃早餐的人通常飲食無規律，容易感到疲倦，頭暈無力，天長日久會造成營養不良、貧血、抵抗力降低，並會產生胰、膽結石。
4. 飯後鬆褲帶
可使腹腔內壓下降，消化器官的活動與韌帶的負荷量增加，從而促使腸子蠕動加劇，易發生腸扭轉，使人腹脹、腹痛、嘔吐，還容易患胃下垂等病。
5. 飯後即睡
會使大腦的血液流向胃部，由於血壓降低，大腦的供氧量也隨之減少，造成飯後極度疲倦，易引起心口灼熱及消化不良，還會發胖。如果血液原已有供應不足的情況，飯後倒下便睡，這種靜止不動的狀態，極易招致中風。
6.飽食
容易引起記憶力下降，思維遲鈍，注意力不集中，應變能力減弱。經常飽食，尤其是過飽的晚餐，因熱量攝入太多，會使體內脂肪過剩，血脂增高，導致腦動脈粥樣硬化。還會引起一種叫' 纖維芽細胞生長因數' 的物質，在大腦中數以萬倍增長，這是一種促使動脈硬化的蛋白質。腦動脈硬化的結果會導致大腦缺氧和缺乏營養，影響腦細胞的新陳代謝。經常飽食，還會誘發膽結石、膽囊炎、糖尿病等疾病，使人未老先衰，壽命縮短。

7. 空腹吃糖
越來越多的證據表明，空腹吃糖的嗜好時間越長，對各種蛋白質吸收的損傷程度越重。由於蛋白質是生命活動的基礎，因而長期的空腹吃糖，更會影響人體各種正常機能，使人體變得衰弱以致縮短壽命。
8. 吃太鹹的食物
鈉在人體內滯留，容易形成或加重高血壓和心臟病。
9. 留鬍子
鬍子吸附有害物質。當人吸氣時，被吸附在鬍子上的有害物質就可能被吸入呼吸道。對留有鬍子的人吸入空氣成分進行的定量分析，發現吸進的空氣中含有幾十種有害物質，包括酚、甲苯、丙酮、異戊問二烯等多種致癌物，留鬍子的人吸入的空氣污染指數是普通空氣的 4． 2 倍。如果下巴有鬍子，又留八字鬍，污染指數可高達7.2倍。加上抽煙等因素，污染指數將高達普通空氣的 50倍。
10.蹺二郎腿
會使腿部血流不暢，影響健康。如果是靜脈瘤、關節炎、神經痛、靜脈血栓患者，蹺腿會使病情更加嚴重。尤其是腿長的人或孕婦，很容易得靜脈血栓。
11. 瞇眼看東西、揉擦眼睛
眼角易出現魚尾狀皺紋。習慣性瞇眼還可使眼肌疲勞、眼花頭疼。揉眼時，病菌會由手部傳染眼睛，導致發炎、睫毛折斷或脫落。
12. 強忍小便
有可能造成急性膀胱炎，出現尿頻、尿疼、小腹脹疼等症狀。美國科學家發佈的一份研究報告指出，有憋尿習慣的人患膀胱癌的可能性比一般人高5 倍。憋尿時，膀胱貯存的尿液不能及時排出，形成人為的尿瀦留。如經常憋尿，就會使括約肌和逼尿肌常常處於緊張狀態；如果憋尿時間過長，膀胱內尿量不斷增加，還會使內壓逐漸升高，時間長了就會發生膀胱頸受阻症狀，造成排尿困難、不暢，或漏尿、尿失禁等毛病。在尿瀦留時還易引起並發感染和結石，嚴重時還影響腎功能。
13.伏案午睡
一般人在伏案午睡後會出現暫時性的視力模糊，原因就是眼球受到壓迫，引起角膜變形、弧度改變造成的。倘若每天都壓迫眼球，會造成眼壓過高，長此下去視力就會受到損害。

14. 俯睡
使脊柱彎曲，增加肌肉及韌帶的壓力，使人在睡覺時仍然得不到休息。此外，還會增加胸部、心臟、肺部及面部的壓力，導致睡醒後面部浮腫，眼睛出現血絲。
15.睡前不洗臉
留在臉上的化妝品不洗掉，會引起粉刺和針眼之類的炎症，還能使眼睛發炎，引起皮膚過敏反應。

16.睡前不刷牙
睡前刷牙比起床後刷牙更重要，這是因為遺留在口腔中和牙齒上的細菌、殘留物等，在夜間對牙齒、牙齡有較強的腐蝕作用。
17. 睡懶覺
使大腦皮層抑制時間過長，天長日久，可引起一定程度人為的大腦功能障礙，導致理解力和記憶力減退，還會使免疫功能下降，擾亂肌體的生物節律，使人懶散，產生惰性，同時對肌肉、關節和泌尿系統也不利。另外，血液循環不暢，全身的營養輸送不及時，還會影響新陳代謝。由於夜間關閉門窗睡覺，早晨室內空氣混濁，戀床很容易造成感 ? _、咳嗽等呼吸系統疾病的發生。
18.熱水沐浴時間過長
在自來水中，氯仿和三氯化烯是水中容易揮發的有害物質，由於在冰浴時水滴有更多的氯和空氣接觸，從而使這兩種有害物質釋放很多。資料顯示，若用熱水盆浴，只有25 ％的氯仿和40 ％的三氯化烯釋放到空氣中；而用熱水沐浴，釋放到空氣中的氯仿就要達到50％，三氯化烯高達 80％C 。
19. 賭博行為
賭博之所以有害於一個人的身心健康，是因為賭博本身是一種強烈刺激，長期進行賭博，可使中樞神經系統長期處於高度緊張狀態，容易引起激素分泌增加，血管收縮，血壓升高，心跳和呼吸加快等，會增加心血管疾病的發病率，還會患消化性潰瘍和緊張性頭疼。
20.生活過度緊張
從事腦力勞動和做生意的一些中青年人，他們的生命機器在整日超負荷運轉，由於他們在心理上的競爭欲強，在生理和心理方面皆承受著巨大的壓力。過度的腦力和體力勞動後，隨之而來的是抗疲勞和防病能力的減弱，進而可能引發多種疾病。
21.喝完牛奶要馬上喝白開水
奶類製品要一口氣喝完，不能一口一口慢慢喝，而且喝完要馬上喝白開水沖掉附在喉嚨上的牛奶，原因奶類含某種酵素(or 脢)，會讓喉嚨黏膜乾燥或帶走黏膜) ，黏膜無法保護喉嚨，產生不適。
牛奶宜晚上喝，不宜早晨喝，更不宜空腹喝。牛奶裡含有使人產生疲倦感的 L色氨酸和有鎮定作用的嗎啡物質，早晨喝牛奶，勢必影響工作和學習。因為空腹吃東西腸蠕動很快，牛奶中的營養物質尚來不及消化﹒吸收，就排到大腸，造成浪費。
在喝牛奶的同時，不要再飲果汁、桔子汁等酸性飲料。因為牛奶中某些蛋白質遇到弱酸性飲料會形成凝塊，不利于消化，又影響營養成分的吸收。
22. 睡眠長 開冷氣 可致不適
在連續八小時開冷氣的房間，早上睡醒時會出現鼻塞、流鼻涕、頭痛等「病態大廈綜合症」症狀，有醫學界建議使用冷氣機時可在窗口留一條縫，確保睡房的二氧化碳含量不會過高。睡房內的二氧化碳因空氣不流通而積聚過多，香港不少人睡醒後也會出現上述症狀，有時還會感到懨懨欲睡，不少人以為患上感冒到診所治理，但其實只要離開該個環境便會回復正常。

准妈咪便秘千万别疏忽(便秘)

2009-06-14T22:53:00.001+08:00

便秘，俗称大便干燥。一般来说，大便间隔超过48小时，粪便干燥,引起排便困难就称为便秘。孕期由于胃酸减少，体力活动减少，胃肠蠕动减慢，加上胎儿逐渐增大，膨胀的子宫压迫小肠，使其难以蠕动，准妈妈就更容易发生肠胀气或便秘。

　　小病不“小”

　　便秘是是孕期最常见最易被疏忽的疾病之一。然而，千万别小看它，一不留神它就会让你悔恨终身。妊娠晚期，便秘会愈来愈严重，常常几天没有大便，甚至1-2周都未能排便，从而导致孕妇腹痛、腹胀。严重者可导致肠梗阻，并发早产，危及母婴安危。曾有患者在妊娠38周时因便秘、肠梗阻导致小肠坏死而切除大部分小肠。有些罹患便秘的孕妇在分娩时，堆积在肠管中的粪便妨碍胎儿下降，导致产程延长甚至难产。

　　一般治疗法：药粥治疗法。

　　胡桃粥：取胡核仁4个，粳米100克。将胡桃仁捣烂同粳米一起煮成粥。适用于体虚肠燥的孕期便秘患者食用。

　　芝麻粥：先取黑芝麻适量，淘洗干净晒干后炒热研碎，每次取30克，同粳米100克煮粥，适用于身体虚弱、头晕耳鸣的孕妇便秘患者食用。

　　酥蜜粥：酥油30克、蜂蜜50克、粳米100克。先将粳米加水煮沸，然后兑入酥油和蜂蜜，煮成稠粥。适用于阴虚劳损等便秘患者食用。

　　柏子仁粥：将柏子仁30克洗净去杂捣烂，加粳米100克煮粥，服时兑入蜂蜜适量。适用于患有心悸、失眠的孕期便秘患者食用。

　　无花果粥：无花果30克、粳米100克。先将米加水煮沸，然后放入无花果煮成粥。服时加适量蜂蜜和砂糖。有痔疮的妇女及便秘患者可食用无花果粥。

　　特殊治疗法：药物治疗法。

　　48小时后，一般治疗（药粥）无效的情况下，如果孕妇仍腹胀难受，甚至引起痔疮加重，则必须在医生的诊断下服食药物治疗。

　　医师叮咛：

　　妊娠期妇女应用泻药必须注意如下几点：

　　(1)由于大多数容积泻剂及肠道刺激剂旨在刺激肠壁，使肠蠕动增加的同时可引起子宫收缩，故妊娠期特别是妊娠末期的妇女应用此类泻药有导致早产或流产的可能，故应在医师指导下选择引起子宫收缩作用小的润滑剂或栓剂。

　　(2)有些导泻药，如石蜡油长期服用可妨碍钙、磷及脂溶性维生素的吸收，又因胎儿的营养物质是通过脐带从母体的血液中吸取的，因此，母体的钙、磷、维生素吸收减少也导致胎儿对这些物质的摄取减少，从而影响胎儿发育。

　　(3)大多数泻药对消化道都有刺激作用而引起恶心、呕吐，从而加重了妊娠初期的妊娠反应，故这方面的副作用亦应引起注意。

　　安全用药指南：

　　一、妊娠期治疗便秘，建议选用中药为宜。建议请有经验的中医师辨证用药。

　　二、原则上可以选用润下通便药：

　　1 中成药：如麻仁丸等。

　　2 中药：如火麻仁、瓜姜仁等。

　　三、可通过饮食调理，食用香蕉、番薯，多吃蔬菜等。

　　一养成定时排便的习惯。

　　每天定时排便1次（最好是在早餐过后），建议使用坐式马桶来减轻下腹部血液的淤滞和痔疮的形成。不要排便时阅读报纸或做别的事情，应养成“专心”排便的好习惯。同时切忌忍着不排便。

　　二适量运动好睡眠。

　　最佳的运动方式就是每天坚持散步。（关于散步详见于2003年9月期《快乐走过孕期》）。睡觉时应尽量取左侧卧位，以减轻子宫对直肠的压迫

孕妇便秘怎么办？

2009-06-14T22:49:00.001+08:00

孕妇便秘怎么办？

便秘可分为功能性便秘和器质性便秘两种。功能性便秘多由排便动力缺乏（如腹肌或肛提肌衰弱）、结肠痉挛、进食太少、水分缺乏、食物缺少纤维素、直肠排便反射迟钝或消失、无定时解大便的习惯等原因造成的。器质性便秘多由部分性肠梗阻（如肠粘连）、巨结肠、肠道外疾病压迫肠道、直肠肛门疾病（如痔疮）等引起。
怀孕以后胃酸分泌减少，胃肠道平滑肌张力降低，蠕动减弱，同时由于腹壁肌肉张力减弱，大肠对水分的吸收增加，所以孕妇更容易发生便秘。孕妇便秘以功能性便秘为主。
孕妇患便秘以后，可采取以下措施：

1、喝蜜水。
2、吃些无花果、梅脯等。
3、多吃水果蔬菜等富含维生素的食物。
4、在医生指导下，适当服用有温和通便作用的药物如果导、麻仁磁脾丸等。
5、如果比较严重，可选用开塞露或甘油栓，必须由医生指导进行，严禁使用泻药，特别是怀孕后期，以防止流产。
为了预防便秘，孕妇在日常生活中要注意以下几个方面的问题：
1、进食不可过精，多吃富含纤维的食物。
2、养成定时大便的习惯。
3、每天起床后空腹饮一杯温开水，有刺激肠蠕动的作用。

便秘是孕妇的常见病和多发病之一。因为怀孕期间黄体素分泌增加，使胃肠道平滑肌松弛，蠕动减缓，导致大肠对水分的吸收增加，粪便变硬而出现排便不畅。在怀孕后期，胎儿和子宫日益增大，对直肠产生一种机械性压迫，也会引起便秘。

为预防便秘的发生，孕妇应参加适度劳动，并注意调剂饮食。平时饮食要含有充足的水分，要多吃含纤维素较多的新鲜蔬菜和水果。早晨起床后，先喝一杯凉开水，平时要养成良好的大便习惯。

如果已发生便秘，切不可乱用泻药，否则会引起流产、早产。现介绍几则粥疗方法：

△胡桃粥：

取胡核仁4个，粳米100克。将胡桃仁捣烂同粳米一起煮成粥。适用于体虚肠燥的孕期便秘患者食用。

△芝麻粥：

先取黑芝麻适量，淘洗干净晒干后炒热研碎，每次取30克，同粳米100克煮粥，适用于身体虚弱、头晕耳鸣的孕妇便秘患者食用。

△酥蜜粥：

酥油30克、蜂蜜50克、粳米100克。先将粳米加水煮沸，然后兑入酥油和蜂蜜，煮成稠粥。适用于阴虚劳损等便秘患者食用。

△柏子仁粥：

将柏子仁30克洗净去杂捣烂，加粳米100克煮粥，服时兑入蜂蜜适量。适用于患有心悸、失眠的孕期便秘患者食用。

△无花果粥：

无花果30克、粳米100克。先将米加水煮沸，然后放入无花果煮成粥。服时加适量蜂蜜和砂糖。有痔疮的妇女及便秘患者可食用无花果粥。

Top Scams in Malaysia

2009-06-12T10:02:00.001+08:00

1. The Cafe Scams - Island Red Cafe & Stevens Corner
(strange, both in Pandan Indah) - Island Red Cafe collects members RM6,000 each and promised 5% return every month and even give you a name in the ROC as a shareholder but what's the point when they run away? Stevens Corner, the famous indian coffee shop follows due to drop of business since their renovation. They collect RM3,000 per member and promise return of RM150 monthly and plans to open nice fanchisee cafe called StevensTeaGarden. Someone mentioned they will make you sign an agreement that give them the rights NOT to pay you anything in future. If you really wish to join, ask for a copy of their agreement and consult your lawyer BEFORE paying them. Bet you will NOT get a copy. Both collect monies from new members with MLM recruitment schemes and pay the old members like Sunshine Empire. You never know when they will run away.
2. Sunshine Empire
This licensed and legal Company has an impressive office at the ground level of KUB building along Jalan Yap Kwan Seng, near Menara Public Bank and AmBank Building . They also have a showroom office at the ground level in the next building. 3 or 4 months ago, Singapore's Straits Times and The Paper published big news reminding their people to be careful and NOT to believe in them. Hope someone can put up the link or
> google for it.(As expected, they STOPPED paying back members now and all investors LOST their money).

Someone below has put a link to the Singapore news. In fact there are more to it. Although Singapore is investigating them, they did not stop their business as the business is legal and so far, no Singaporean have failed to receive their commissions as promised. Thus, the government cannot stop them yet. The news published that the founder, director and group president is someone named James Phang but he is NOT the owner. Isn't this quite strange ? At the end of the game, James Phang can just disappear from the Company easily and claimed that he was just "employed". Such trick always happened in scam businesses. Now, the Company has STOPPED paying commissions and interests to members with the excuse that the Singapore government has freezed their bank account while under investigation. Do you think their boss will be so stupid to keep much monies in the bank to be freezed? They are all transfered away. It's just an excuses not to
> pay back to members and members are only paid "e-bonus-points" which is cashless. If they wish to
> convert to cash, they have to recruit new members to pay them cash and the recruiter less out trom the amount. So victims act like Vampires and "forced" to victimise other victims if they wish to get their monies back. And their victims will later transform to vampires and the scam carries on…..
3. MobilWallet
This Company owned by 2 young men, Stanley & Rey Gan, office in Queens Avenue Park has collect multi-millions the last 2 years. Claimed that they tied up with Telekoms, Utility Board payment like Water & Electricity bills, even Maybank got fooled by them. Advertisement Billboards everywhere. They STOPPED paying back their members few months ago and the members cannot do anything because they are made to sign an agreement unaware that they have to claims if the company stopped paying them by CHANGING terms and policies.
4. Water Business - Oxygenated and Alkaline Water Products
Some of these are bottled water and some are filters or equipment that claimed the trick..
One of the better known Company that sold "oxygen" water is SITO (supposed to stand for Selangor International Trading Organiszation and claimed Selangor State Government owned some share in it). The key person and founder is a Dato Robert Ong from Rawang but his name is no longer in the business now. Their products are sold for RM2 to RM3 for a 350ml bottle and now concentrating mostly in the Indian market. Their Chinese and Malays market are long gone since a year or 2 ago. Their customers are made to believe that their water has more oxygen and able to give miraculous effects for the body. Water is H2O, how to put more O into it ? Anyone knows how much oxygen do we breathe into our body everyday at FOC ? Latest news is that this SITO Company is going to create new label to market under a new Company since the SITO name has already gone bad. Someone informed that this Company is owing alot of money(due to refunds) to ex-stockists but just refuse to pay them. (Latest news, SITO shifted to another place and their MLM business has closed but planning to start again with a different name, beware!!)

Alkaline Products - Can anyone explain how it can work for the body ? The stomach's gastric liquid is so acidic that water of any pH that goes through it will not make any difference.
5. Car Fuel Booster - K-Link
K-Link, the famous scam MLM Company that sold the footpatch TAKARA, later the "cock-ring" and energy-card launched the patrol-saving pills last year. Got so hot that even grocery shops are selling for them. Recently many of these cars that used the pills are rushing to the workshops to clean the residual. Few months ago, another MLM Company launched a fuel booster gadget, claimed that saves up to 20% fuel, that is attached to the cigarette lighter. Started off well using binary plan but businese begin to fade now and most users find it NOT effective.
6. Perfumery Products
(eg. Lampe Berger & Bel Air)(more details later). Lampe Berger is not so hot now in the neighbouring countries but there are still new victims every month in Malaysia . Must thanks to those who have contributed and kept the thread alive here in Kopitiam. Bel-Air have closed in Malaysia . LB is almost zero in Singapore . This perfumery product from France with over 100 years history is just bottles and fragrance (check the factory's website) but the Company marketing them in Asia claimed "aromatheraphy" products. Hong Kong TVB aired a program that exposed their scam but their members claimed that HK's TVB already apologised to them. Note that the biggest strenght in a MLM Scam is their members will go all way out to lie in order to defend for their Company. The reason is simple; these members fear that they will not be able to make their money back if the Company collapsed. Knowing that the Lampe Berger products are moving slow, they add a line of skincare products named Estebel, also claime to have over 100 years history in France. (Hardly anymore Chinese newcomers, they are now tapping the Malays in Malaysia.)
7. Energy Products
(eg. stone pendants, bracelets, mattress and pillows). They use all sorts of gimmicks and demonstration to make you into believing them. They will do some tricks and demo to prove that these products really produce energy BUT is there any tricks in their demo? So what if there really produce energy; is it good or strong enough to help the body? The effect is actually PLACEBO which I will elaborate in a new thread soon. (More details later.)
8. Hi-Tech Products
Names like bio-tech, nano-tech that claimed millions of dollars of research involved, eg Bio-Young and XKL few years ago. Most of these will claimed a professor behind them (even with name and picture of a person) or used words like "U.S.A. formula", "German Technology" or "Nanotechnology" and no further details (more details later). If you ask for more details like the professor or factory's address, the answer will be "trade secrets".
9. Investment Schemes
SWISSCASH is the King of all. Swisscash is nearly over now but there are many similar and smaller ones that are still on. (Now, it's closed or stopped paying back members.)
10. GoldQuest
This Company that claimed to be HK-based started with some non-value gold-plated coins that are sold for over RM2,000 have several names and changed products several times. QuestVacation, QuestNet, etc. They have several offices in Amcorp Mall, PJ and their key person (in fact, the owner), a Malaysian Indian was arrested last year in Indonesia for having involved in a very big Phillipines scam. Most of their overseas offices are closed or inactive but their Malaysia business is still hot, with some "energy" products. (Can someone please provide a link which showed the news that their boss was involved in a big scam in Philippines and was arrested in last year?)
11. Numerogy & Fortune Telling
A Company named Visiber is using MLM to sell fortune telling classes using your birthday based on numerology fortune telling. Prpspects will be told that they need to buy a certain "number" between 1 to 9 in the form of pendants or bracelets made of stainless steel and sold from RM600 to RM20,000. Customers, or rather victims are mostly females from rural areas. Very hot in Penang now and a number of spin-off Companies have started.
12. MJ - Life
MJ-Life - This Company boost of a very big background with many many years of history which is NOT true. Their people or associates may be long in business but nothing to do with their MLM launched recently. Why do I consider it a scam or bad? New members are told to pay a sum of money (up to RM1000) and you get NOTHING for it. You only get a membership can entitle you to enjoy all sorts of special price and discounts when you have medical check-ups in their centres.. They will claim all those check-ups cost more if done elsewhere. It's not true. Only the naive and those new to medical check-ups will fall victims to them. Most members who paid the money ended up with nothing.
13. Seaweed Venture Scams
1 such Company is located in Taman Maluri, Cheras. They will ask you to invest a few thousands ringgits for their venture of growing seaweeds in East Malaysia and you are guaranteed returns. To gain your confidence further, they will tell you your investment money is secured by "insurance" or "unit trusts" & "trustees". When you ask for further documents to prove, they will give all sorts of excuses or just ignore you because they know they cannot get you. These Seaweed scam is one of the hottest now, warn all your friends about it before they are victimised.
14. MXM (Previously MGM)
This is a master scam among the younger group, very successful 2 or 3 years ago but since there moved to their big 10-storey office at Phileo Damansara and changed name to MXM, their business dropped. They collect members RM3,000 to RM4,000 with credit card monthly easy payment and in return you get a hospital benefits insurance from Pacific Insurance worth only a few hundred RMs together with some you-don't-need medical check-ups from their associate Company Pathlab. Also talk about fitness, lifestyles bullshit that is all worthless.
15. Gano Excel
This company from the north, a copycat of DXN selling Lingzhi capsules created a new Company called Gano iTouch to cash-in on the internet like e-Cosway after their Company went down the drain since the last 2 years, selling Linzhi and some no-value energy pendants and alkaline water gadgets. They provide free transport every weekend from KL to visit their Alor Star office.
16. NuLife (HK)
This Company started by some HK people has been in Malaysia for more than 10 years but they have flopped in HK and Malaysia due to bad management and a product scam making use of a prosecuted American named Dr Jeffrey Bland, found guilty of false products claim. Since this case in the US leaked out and many Malaysians found out that the real boss in HK is a Steven Tang (he cheated many Malaysians in another scheme about 20 years ago) their business went down all the way. Now they claim Malaysian partners cheated them and start a new Company in Malaysia . Watch out, this new Company will come out with some investment scheme idea that will get many to lose their money.
17. Arowana Fish Breeding
Oora from Germany , Biofuel (Kompleks Maluri) etc - These are some newer scams. Arowana fish venture ask you to invest some money and give you fixed return. Biofuel will tell you their Indonesia connections (just like Sunshine Empire before using Taiwan) & Oora from Germany(I never trust those cruel Germans) that market some bio-chips and a gadget that claims to give energy and therapeutic effects of accupunture, tai-chi, yoga, etc depending how you set the toy-like gadget, wear it on your body and you get the effect later.
They could not explain or provide any demonstration to prove their effectiveness. Only doctors and papers claim that I will never trust. The health effect is actually PLACEBO, which I will elaborate in a different thread.

Fluorescent GM monkeys 'could help find Parkinson's cure'
The world's first "glow in the dark" monkeys could help in cure for diseases such as Parkinson's and Huntingdon's.

Scientists have genetically modified marmoset monkeys with a fluorescent protein that under ultra violet light makes them glow a vivid green.

And unlike previously developed "transgenic animals" the monkeys are able to pass on their unique ability to their offspring, suggesting it is deeply embedded in its DNA.

Future of Social Networking (Ning)

2009-05-26T21:30:00.000+08:00

A fast-growing, free Web site launched two years ago, Ning lets members custom build their own social-networking platforms based around their passions and pastimes.

As Facebook and MySpace connect people to friends and family, Ning gathers users around common interests. The site hosts networks for hip-hop music lovers, video gaming moms and teens obsessed with the Twilight book and movie franchise. Other popular Ning networks bring people together online for political and social causes such as "Pickens' Plan," which advocates wind energy.

Ning had 4.7 million unique visitors as of January and surpassed 1 million social networks -- about one-fifth of them considered active -- last month.

Ning also enhanced its site in March with new features such as a real-time activity feed so users can get up-to-the-minute reports -- not unlike Twitter's tweets -- about what others are doing.

 One day my wife said: I know u love her. I was shocked: The one I love is you! She said: I know, but u love her too.
  
  
 我妻子要我去看的女士是我的母�。
 The lady that my wife asked me to visit was my mother.
  
 她已�寡居了十九年，然而我忙碌的工作和身�二�孩子父�的�任，令我分身乏�，以致很少有��和她相聚。

 不久以後，我收到一封信，�面是上次我和母���的那家餐�的一�收�，上面有一�字��著：「我已先付了�，因�我�定自己不可能再有��去了，但我�是付了�人份的�──你和你的妻子。
  
 你��想不到那一晚的���我有多大的意�，我�你。」
 Soon after this, I received a letter, there are a receipt  of the restaurant that I dated with my mom, and a message: I already paid the bill for our next date, even though I know I'd probably won't have chance to date with u anymore, I still pay the bill for two persons: u and yr wife. U will never know how meaningful the date to me, I love U.
  
 �那一刻起，我深深��，一定要及��：
  
 「我�你」，�且要常常�出���我�所�的人。
 At the moment, I realized: we must always spare our precious time to our

 beloved, and told them u love them before it is too late.
  
  
 世上�有任何事比自然如�因�和你的家庭更重要，
  
 多花��和他�在一起，因��事�不能拖延到「以後有��再� ...」。
 There is nothing more important than yr family, spend more time with them before it is too late.
  
  
 「�欲�而�不止，子欲�而�不待」  是人生一大憾事。
 Don't make any regret in our life.
  
 ~{ ��分 ,�有份}~
 不要等到爱得太迟，珍惜现在。

Ubuntu Proxy setting (Ubuntu)

2009-05-13T15:51:00.002+08:00

When running a Ubuntu system behind firewall and where users are required to use proxy server for http and ftp access,
Apt-get on Ubuntu might not be working after fresh installation.

Linux system normally uses the http_proxy environment variable for the proxy setting.

Setting the http_proxy variable:
bash$ export http_proxy=http://<host>:<port>

If required login for your proxy server, specified it this way:
bash$ export http_proxy=http://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>

you can add the above to your .bashrc file once it is working. (test using ping or apt-update)

三個男人和三個女人
三個男人因為天氣熱，拿了毛巾和肥皂跑到河邊去洗澡…
洗到一半突然看到三個女人也往河邊走來。
三個男人一看河邊的四週，根本沒有地方可以躲。
靈機一動，就拿著毛巾和肥皂站在石頭上，假裝成一座雕像…

三個未見過世面的女人來到了河邊洗衣服…
突然看到石頭上的那座雕像，覺得很好奇，尤其是這個雕像下面有一個奇怪的拉把是自己從來沒有看過的…

第一個女人比較大膽，就用手去拉一下那個拉把，結果男人A 雖然強忍住不敢動，但是毛巾還是掉了下去…
第一個男人叫道：『好神奇哦！拉一下就可以得到毛巾一條呢！』

第二個女人說道：『換我試試看…』
也用手去拉了一下那個拉把，結果男人 B 又強忍往不敢動，但是肥皂還是掉下去了…
第二個女人叫道：『真的好神奇哦！我得到的是肥皂一塊呢！』

第三個女人比較膽小，但是看到她們都有拿到獎品，有點忌妒…
於是也去拉雕像的拉把…
拉了第一下，沒有東西掉下來，於是又拉了第二下，也沒有…
於是一生氣就一直拉，一直拉…

第三個女人叫道：『你....你........你們.............你們看!!!!!!!! 我得到…洗面乳呢！…』

神的笑话...
信徒：菩薩！您大慈大悲，請您告訴我，我什麼時候才能找到老婆？
菩薩：天機不可洩露！冥中自有定數！

講故事
八歲的女孩應該講故事讓她睡覺;

保險套
某個陰雨棉棉的下午，一個穿著黑色西裝面帶憂愁的中年

男子，緩緩的進入一家西藥房.

藥房老闆見了他便親切的問︰先生您看來氣色不佳，是否

哪裡不舒服？需要什麼種類的藥？

那位中年男子卻淡淡的一句：請給我一盒全黑色的保險套！
藥房老闆滿臉疑惑的去翻遍了整個藥房都找不到黑色的保
險套，只好無奈的對中年男子說：抱歉，我們店裡沒有黑
色的保險套，但有其他樣式豐富的保險套，您何不試試，
難道一定要黑色的？

中年男子無奈的嘆了一口氣說：事情是這樣的，我的結拜
兄弟前幾天不幸過世了，我要去安慰他老婆，基於禮貌上
我應該用黑的保險套！

你有几个孩子？
老人甲和有重听的老人乙在聊天。

老人甲："不对！事实一个。"
老人乙："哇靠！四十一个？！"
老人甲："你听错了！其实一个。"
老人乙："真的假的？七十一个！！"
老人甲："~!@#$%^&*-+,>......"

没完没了...
you know？？
有一對日本夫婦移名到美國去後，有一天他們想做那檔事時，
卻發現原來保險套己經用完了，這個日本人只好到了商店去買了，

但是到了後才發現自己的美語實在不怎麼靈光，說了半天，
那個老外還是不曉得他在說什麼。最後他急了，只好使出最後的
方法了，只見他..刷..的一聲己經把拉鍊拉了下來，接下來就
掏出了他的毛茸茸的怪物放在桌上後，然後又把美金放在桌上，
接著就用手指指著他的那話兒又用手指指美金，說了句：you know？？
那個老外就突然恍然大悟的說：OH！！ I know！ I know！！
接著也..刷..的一聲把拉鍊拉了下來，也掏出自己的那話兒放在桌上，
接著也指指自己那裡，再指指那日本人的那裡，說：
Hi！ man. Mine is bigger than yours！！

接著就將桌上的美金毫不客氣的收了下來！！

金盆洗手
一個妓女決定決定要金盆洗手了，再也不【幹】了！！！

隔天，她到教堂向神父告解，打算從此以後展開另一投的嶄新生活。
妓女：「我必須向你坦白，我原本是個妓女。」

神父：哦？妳為什麼要從事此行業呢？
妓女：唉，都怪當初年輕不懂事，貪慕虛榮……不過，
我從今天起，我已經從良了。
神父：那很好，我替妳向上帝說話。
過了一會兒。。。。。。。。。。。

妓女：我..還..有一..件事..情(吞吞吐吐的說)。
神父：說吧，在天父面前還有什麼好隱瞞的呢？

妓女：我昨天不小心把一個客人的寶貝咬斷，因為他想白玩嘛，

所以我就讓他絕子絕孫。神父：嗯，妳得到赦免了。

妓女：妳不用向上帝說嗎，這樣就赦免我的了嗎？

神父：那個人已經原諒妳了，自從妳把他的寶貝咬掉後，

他就已經轉行做神父了，不需繁衍子孫了。

老当益壮
又一次扫黄行动中，警方抄了一家色情酒店，由于里面小姐太多了，带回去后把整个派出所塞满，警察只好把那些小姐们排成一排，以方便记录。老婆婆经过，看景象觉得好奇，便跑去问小姐们，由于那些小姐们被抓很不爽，于是很敷衍的告诉这个老婆婆说："我们在等发不用钱的棒棒糖啦！"

这个老婆婆心想既然不用钱拿我也要，于是也排队了，后来警察先生做笔录做到这位老婆婆时吓了一跳，怎么可能这样的老婆婆也……正在惊讶之余，这位老婆婆说话了："我老虽老，但是我还能舔。"

唐僧西行遇一女妖，观其乳丰臀肥，故欲行房事，女妖见状惊呼：长老！小女月经在身恐有行房不便！唐僧听罢双手合一道：阿弥陀佛，贫僧正为取经而来！

聪明的警犬??
有一位女警出門值勤，

出門后發現忘了穿內褲，

幸好她帶了只警犬，

于是她讓警犬聞一聞陰部，

命令它回家將內褲帶來，不久..........

犬嘴里咬著一支警棍回來。

但樣式新潮，不敢確定是女裝還是男裝。
正巧一位又高又壯又黑的男服務員朝她走過來。
就用英語問他：' for Girl or Boy？'
黑人回答：'Unisex'！
她聽成'You need sex '，豈不是性騷擾？
又怕自己聽錯，露出錯愕懷疑的神情；
黑服務員見狀，一個字母一個字母地解釋：' U – N – I – SEX！'
這次她聽的很清楚' You and I Sex'，立即找黑人上司裡論，

预防感冒密招

2009-04-25T08:06:00.001+08:00

预防感冒密招 !

下次感冒初起，不妨試試 ! 無害...
可以很快使感冒或頭痛不再繼續惡化！
如果你感覺到已經開始流鼻水、連續打噴嚏、有點頭痛，就快要感冒了！

趕緊先喝兩、三杯熱開水（不可以喝冰的) 等三、五分鐘，

再沖一杯咖啡，任何咖啡都可以，三合一的最方便了，

如果沒有，鐵罐子的咖啡也可以，ㄧ定要熱的喝才有效(不可冰）。

二、三十分鐘以後，咖啡和先前喝的開水會讓你要尿尿，

而且，很神奇的，流鼻水、打噴嚏、頭痛都慢慢不見了！

想知道為什麼這麼好用？

一、咖啡可以讓你加速排尿，加上先喝的開水，

可以把已經侵入繁殖的病毒，從身體裡「洗」掉大部分。

二、咖啡有提神、興奮的作用，會讓你低迷不振的免疫功能提振起來，
病毒從尿尿排掉了一部分，免疫功能又加強了，感冒繼續惡化的可能當然降低不少。

心存真善忍--幸福長伴善良人 !

個十百千萬....兆然後

2009-04-16T20:11:00.000+08:00

有個、十、百、千、萬、十萬、百萬、千萬、
億、十億、百億、千億、兆、十兆、百兆、
千兆...然後咧？

我們好像從小到大只聽過最大的單位就是「兆」
但是，萬一有個數量超過了兆，要怎麼講呢？

Yahoo Answer 找到,
原來還有單位比兆還大的，
以下是網路上的原文：

『就整數名稱而言，
　由小到大依次為
　一、十、百、千、萬、億、兆、
　京、垓、秭、穰、溝、澗、正、
　載、極、恆河沙、阿僧祇、那由他、
　不可思議、無量大數，
　萬以下「十進位」，萬以後則為「萬進位」，
　如萬萬為億，萬億為兆、萬京為垓；
　小數點以下為「十退位」，
　名稱依次為
　分、釐、毫、絲、忽、微、纖、沙、
　塵、埃、渺、莫、模糊、逡巡、須臾、
　瞬息、彈指、剎那、六德、空虛、清靜。
　如以阿拉伯數字表示，整數萬是十的四次方、
　億是十的八次方、兆是十的十二次方、
　京是十的十六次方，
　最後「無量大數」是十的六十八次方；
　小數點以下分是十的負一次方，
　絲是十的負四次方，
　沙是十的負八次方，
　最後「清靜」是十的負二十一次方；
　例如「微米」就是十的負六次方米，
　「次微米」實際就是「纖米」，
　也就等於十的負七次方米。』

真是恐怖...
真不知道古代的人在想什麼
什麼阿僧衹來著的,
那真的是中文嗎?
如果我們的錢能夠到一「那由他」的話,
大概就可以把地球買下來了吧哈哈

原來「不可思議」是數量單位名啊
現在才知道
是因為這個單位太大了
所以引申為很令人難以置信的意思嗎?

我怎麼不知道彈指、剎那、空虛等字詞
原來也是數量單位名啊？
是因為太小了,
所以引申做很快的意思嗎?

真是令人大開眼界啊

A definition of globalisation (joke)

2009-04-15T11:30:00.000+08:00

Finally, a definition of globalisation

I can understand and to which
I can relate

Question : What is the truest definition of Globalisation?
Answer : Princess Diana's death.

Question : How come?
Answer : An English princess with

an Egyptian boyfriend

crashes in a French tunnel,

driving a German car

with a Dutch engine,

driven by a Belgian

who was drunk

on Scottish whisky,

followed closely by a Italian Paparazzi,

on Japanese motorcycles;

treated by an American doctor,

using Brazilian medicines.

This is sent to you by a Malaysian,

using Bill Gates's technology,

and you're probably reading this on your computer,

that uses Taiwanese

chips, and a Chinese monitor,

assembled by Bangladeshi workers

in a Singapore plant,

transported by Indian lorry-drivers,

hijacked by Indonesians,

unloaded by Maltese wharfies,

and trucked to you by Kiwi freeloaders

That, my friends, is Globalisation!

Customizing the _layouts pages (Sharepoint)

2009-04-14T14:56:00.000+08:00

To customize the pages under _layouts (mainly modifying the layout/header/footer),
we need to modify the share files for Sharepoint located under
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\12\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\

MSDN Resources: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/944105
(How to customize application pages in the Layouts folder in SharePoint Server 2007 and in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0)

Although modification on the build in pages it is not really supported by SharePoint, there is something that we could do to overcome this.

Customizing WebPart Title bar (Sharepoint)

2009-04-14T13:39:00.000+08:00

Today, while working on customizing a sharepoint site, I'm working on modifying the WebPart Title bar.

After a while searching through the Sharepoint help and google, I found a good resource on customizing the web
part title bar at http://www.heathersolomon.com/blog/articles/brandsppart3a.aspx

It's very good reference for Sharepoint modification.

巴菲特看中国

2009-04-14T08:21:00.000+08:00

写这篇博文，是因为发现一个奇怪的现象，就是在海外的人士基本上对中国看好，而在国内的一些人确对中国看差。所以这里把俺的一位小兄弟和巴大爷的私人对话，贴出来和大家分享一下。

俺这位小老弟，算是投资界的后起之秀，对巴大爷的投资方针非常推崇，而且还是他介绍了比亚迪给巴大爷。小老弟非常有志气，希望能够好好学透巴菲特的九阳真经，将来成为中国的巴菲特，并希望比巴菲特做得更好。

如果读过俺的博文，应该知道俺对私募基金的行为是不耻的，把它和投资银行，对冲基金，通常为金融界的三大流氓。私募基金的问题，在于用极其少量的资金，以银行贷款为依托，吃下人家资金有些困难的企业，然后就不顾商业和社会利益，关停并转，大量裁员，把社会责任扔给社会，然后就把分撤的义务，重新打包保证一下，换个华丽面孔，到股市上骗一笔钱就走，而让被忽悠了的股民们接手。而这样的公司，大部分后来都是倒闭和破产的下场。

而巴菲特大爷对私募基金的厌恶比俺还要厉害，直接将它们称为"色情店铺"。他认为自己的投资原则是让一个被买了的公司好好发展，对国家，对社会，对公司的股东，对公司的员工，当然还有自己的投资，都是一个正面的作用。而不是这些色情店铺，利用人性的弱点，让被买的公司自伤，来满足他们暴敛的目的。

巴大爷的这种投资思想显然是对一个社会的发展有益处的，这也是为啥俺在博文里说过，中国要出巴菲特，不要出索罗斯。

那么巴菲特对中国的看法如何呢？

巴大爷私下说，如果他晚出生半个世纪，他希望自己是中国人，因为许多伟大的公司将会在中国诞生。

巴大爷认为西方不能在享受中国为他们提供了生活必需品后，又反过来指责中国面临的环境问题。美国人均笑话石油是中国人均的12倍。因此在面对世界的环境问题，应该大家共同努力和面对，指责中国是不道德和不公平的。

巴大爷认为一个国家的政治风险很重要。他曾经同时考虑过投资中国的中海油和俄国的尤科斯，但最后决定投资中国，因为中国政治稳定和政府行为一贯。他和尤科斯老板一起吃过饭，但后来这位老板就进了局子里了。

关于中国在美国的投资和贸易，巴大爷认为，以货易货，不要收美国人的不值钱的废纸（美元），要收等值的货品。

关于中国在苏丹的投资，巴大爷认为，中国需要石油，但是美国基本上在全世界堵住了中国的路。对西方对中国在苏丹上的指责，巴菲特举例子说，当年美国在 1960年时候，还有三分之二的人不能投票。如果那时候，比如说英国跑过来，嚷嚷人权问题，美国就会回到，你给我滚一边去！中国对自己的国家利益也应该这个态度。

巴菲特这个老人，身上没有通常的那种大亨的烂脾气，性格温和而谦卑，待人和气。和俺的小兄弟照相时，也不顾寒风不穿大衣，对后辈的问题也非常有耐心，不愧为投资界的圣人。

当然他的投资不是完美无缺，当时显然有几个投资，俺是不以为然，不过他在2005年买下MidAmerica公司，和他对比亚迪的投资，都是俺支持和鼓掌的。

公园有一对恋人正在甜蜜，女孩撒娇说老公：我牙痛！
男孩于是吻了女孩一口问：还疼吗？女孩说：不痛了！

又问这回还疼吗女孩很开心的说：不痛了！。。。。。。

旁边一老太太站着看了半天了忍不住了,
上前就问小伙子说：小伙子你真神了，你能治痔疮不?

笑一笑 - 醫生篇 (笑話)

2009-04-12T09:02:00.000+08:00

1)
某晚，一裸男叫了一輛計程車，
女司機目不轉睛盯著他直看。

裸男大怒，罵道：
你他媽的沒見過裸男呀！

女司機也大怒：
........我看你他媽的從哪掏錢！

(是阿...這果然是個大問題....= =""")

2)
一個消化不良的病人向醫生抱怨：
我近來很不正常，吃什麼拉什麼，吃黃瓜拉黃瓜，
吃西瓜拉西瓜，怎樣才能恢復正常呢？

醫生沉默片刻說：

那你只能吃屎了。

3)
一位婦人抱著BABY到一間婦產科。
醫生問婦人說：BABY是吃母乳還是牛乳啊？
婦人：吃母乳！
醫生：那請你把衣服脫下來。
婦人：啊！？為什麼？
醫生：請你不用緊張，這裡是婦產科，絕不會對你有任何侵犯的。
婦人半信半疑的脫去了上衣醫生用他的手在婦人的胸部
上摸摸，下摸摸，左搓搓，右揉揉。對這婦人說：難怪
BABY會營養不良，妳根本就沒有母乳嘛！
婦人：廢話！我當然沒有母乳；我是他阿姨！

4)
一位病重的老人即將死去。
醫生認為已經不需要再隱瞞他的病情了，
便在巡房後來到老人的病床旁。
「你的病已經很嚴重了。」醫生告訴他。
「我相信你必然想知道事實，現在你還想見什麼人嗎？」
虛弱的老人點了點頭說：「是的！」
他用幾乎聽不見的聲音說：「我想看另一位醫生。」

5)
病人對醫生說：
「哎呀！我吃的那些生蠔好像不大對勁？」
「那些蠔新鮮嗎？」
醫生一面按病人的腹部一面問：「你剝開蠔殼時肉色如何？」
病人：「什麼！要剝開殼吃的？」

6)
有位患者到醫院求診。
醫師問：你哪邊不舒服？
患者答：我昨晚做了個夢，夢見自己是頭牛在吃草。
醫師便說：你放心，這很正常。
每個人也會夢到，夢境和現實是不一樣的。
只見那位患者很緊張的說：
可是.....可是......
我起床時發現我床上的草席不見了一半！

7)
候診室裡坐著一位憂心忡忡的病人，當醫生傳喚他時，
他滿面愁容的說：「醫生，怎麼辦？我昨天誤喝下一瓶汽油！」
醫生回答他說：「喔..沒關係啦！記得這幾天不要抽煙！」

8)
患者：「大夫，我咳嗽得很厲害。」
大夫：「你多大年紀？」
患者：「七十五歲。」
大夫：「二十歲咳嗽嗎？」
患者：「不咳嗽。」
大夫：「四十歲時咳嗽嗎？」
患者：「也不咳嗽。」
大夫：「那現在不咳嗽，還要等到什麼時候咳嗽？」

9)
婦產科的候診室前，有兩個準爸爸不安地踱步著，等待妻子生產。
其中一位嘆氣地說：真倒楣啊！這事剛好踫到我在休假...。
另一位則說：我比你更倒楣，我現在還在度蜜月哩!

10)
有個病人請教醫師關於手腳冰冷的問題。
醫師：「當我覺得手腳冰冷時，就會抱著我的妻子，
於是就會熱起來，覺得溫暖 ....。」
病人：「這倒是一個值得一試的方法....那....
請問尊夫人什麼時候比較方便呢？」

11)
有一個花花公子，因為玩的太兇了，
結果那話兒就生病，連續看了好幾個西醫，
醫生都告訴他：「你這裡不行了，一定得切掉！」
那花花公子怎捨得啊！就跑去看中醫。
中醫看了看說：「雖然太晚了，嗯....不過沒關係！」
「真的嗎？可是我看了好多西醫都說一定要切掉。」
醫生道：「西醫就是這樣，動不動就要切東西。
這瓶藥你拿去，每天塗三次要不了多久，它就會自己掉下來的啦！」

12)
「大夫，手術成功的可能性有多少﹖」
「哦，我連這一次，已經有九十七次的手術經驗了。」
「那我就放心了。」
「嗯！我也希望成功一次。

婚姻存摺( 故事)

2009-04-12T08:33:00.000+08:00

我的'婚姻存摺'是出嫁那天，媽媽遞到我手上的，

當時,我以為會是一大筆錢，打開一看發現只有1000元，

我用失望的眼神看著媽媽，媽媽卻笑著說:'這是我特意為你們辦理的'婚姻存摺'，

'以後每逢值得紀念的日子，都可以存一筆錢，

等到老的時候,裡面除了錢,還有無限的幸福…'。

當時,我對母親這份心思不以為然,倒是丈夫記在了心上。

婚後沒多久!，他就先後存了兩個500元，

一個是因為他升職了，第二個是因為我手術治愈出院。

當時我嘴上笑他無聊，其實心裡甜蜜無比，

畢竟他把我的健康也當作一件讓他感到幸福的事。

沒過多久,我懷孕了,這一次,我足足往裡面存了2000元。

但很快，我們開始有了爭吵和冷漠﹔

孩子出生帶來的快樂是短暫的，洗不完的尿布、喂不完的奶，

進一步加劇了我們感情的惡化而那本婚姻存摺像被遺忘了，

寂寞地躺在抽屜角落，上面的數字久未見漲。

我們鬧離婚的時候，媽媽說:你們先把存摺上面的錢花光了再離吧，

雖然錢不多，但是你們共同的財產。

於是，我第一次取了1000元，然後拎著幾件心儀已久的衣服離開商場時，

我又回去對售貨小姐說:'對不起,我不買了!請你退回我剛才付給你的錢。'

也許當時的局面窘迫極了，

但我腦海裡想到的是那1000元婚姻積蓄的來源:

他是個害羞的男人，但曾在街頭大聲地對我說'我愛你'，我為此存下100元，

他記得我的生日、鞋號、密碼及最怕的事，我為此在生日那天存下300元，

他對女人有風度,也有距離，不給暗戀他的女下屬任何機會，我為此存下500元...

啊，這1000元裡就有這麼多的幸福積累，

再看看婚姻存摺上的兩萬多元，我的眼睛忽然就有些濕潤起來。

晚上回到家，我把存摺交給他，說:'趕緊花吧，花光了好離婚。

第二天晚上，他把存摺遞到我手上，我打開一看，發現反而多了1000元。

他說:'那上面的每一元錢都記錄著我們走過的歷程。'

我第一次發覺原來是這樣的愛你，索性又存進了1000元，

我們從此又和好如初了。

還是媽媽說得對，以愛情的名義為婚姻開個戶口，

把夫妻間所有快樂的、幸福的、浪漫的事，通通存進銀行！

有了這本日積月累的婚姻存摺，即使是再貧窮的婚姻，也決不害怕透支。

這一生，你可能會遇到許多喜歡你的人。

但是，你可能永遠都遇不到一個你真正愛的人。

所以，一但遇到了，一定要好好的把握。

很多事情，錯過了就沒有了，錯過了就是會變的，緣份也是。

Girl can be True

2009-04-09T23:01:00.001+08:00

When a GIRL is quiet ... millions of things are running in her mind.

When a GIRL is not arguing ... she is thinking deeply.

When a GIRL looks at u with eyes full of questions ... she is wondering how
long you will be around.

When a GIRL answers ' I'm fine ' after a few seconds ... she is not at all fine.

When a GIRL stares at you she is wondering why you are lying.

When a GIRL lays on your chest .. she is wishing for you to be hers forever.

When a GIRL wants to see you everyday... she wants to be pampered.

When a GIRL says ' I love you ' .. she means it.

When a GIRL says ' I miss you ' .... no one in this world can miss you more than that.

Life only comes around once make sure u spend it with the right person ...

Find a guy .. who calls you beautiful instead of hot.

who calls you back when you hang up on him.

who will stay awake just to watch you sleep. Wait for the guy who ... kisses
your forehead.

Who wants to show you off to the world when you are in your sweats.

Who holds your hand in front of his friends.

Who is constantly reminding you of how much he cares about you and how lucky he is to have you.

Who turns to his friends and says, 'That's her!!'

Applying Leave

2009-04-09T17:32:00.001+08:00

當我向老板請假的時候，老板寫了這封信這樣回答我：

你想請一天假？看看你在向公司要求什麼？
一年裡有365天你可以工作。
一年52個星期，你已經每星期休息2天，剩下261天工作。
你每天有16小時不在工作，去掉170天，剩下91天。

每天你花30分鐘時間喝咖啡，加起來每年23天，剩下68天。
每天午飯時間你花掉1小時，又用掉46天，還有22天。
通常你每年請2天病假，這樣你的工作時間只有20天。
每年有5個節假日，公司休息不上班，你只幹15天。
每年公司還慷慨地給你14天假期，算下來你就工作1天，
而你他媽的還要請這一天假？

我的回信內容

你怎麼不說 ---

每天8:30分上班，我8:10就要從家中出門 (這段時間我為公司做事,
但是.....沒有給我錢)。

每天17:30下班，我要到18:00才會到家 (這段時間我為公司做事,
但是.....沒有給我錢)。

公司規定不能隨便穿，要穿襯衫西裝褲皮鞋，偏偏我最討厭穿襯衫
西裝褲皮鞋，這我要花自己的錢去買，公司也沒有給錢。

每天看電腦，對我的眼睛是一大傷害，我近視平均每年增加至少
100度，將來的醫藥費還要自己付，為了工作傷害自己永久的健康，
公司也不做這方面的補助。

每天用滑鼠鍵盤，害的我肩膀酸痛的要死，回去還要自己買沙隆巴斯
來貼，這部份公司又不提供沙隆巴斯，又得我自己出錢。

每次有案子，你一句話丟下來，我就要花盡心思，怎麼打一份讓你
交差的企劃書，隨時隨地走到哪裡連半夜作夢都夢到，公司也沒給我
加班費。

客戶不爽，打來公司對著我的耳朵狂吼，弄的我精神衰弱、食慾不振，
還要開夜車趕案子，開紿懷疑我會過勞死，公司也沒給我錢和保險。

每天希望同事和客戶在工作上能夠配合，所以自己出去玩的時候，
還要買個紀念品給同事和客戶以打好關係，這紀念品的錢還是要
我自己出。

我不過請一天假=
'你媽的還不讓我請這一天的假
