A Wonderful Message by George Carlin

What a difference a sad event in someone's life makes.

Isn't it amazing that GEORGE CARLIN (hiswife recently died) - comedian of the 70's and 80's
- could write something so very eloquent... and so very appropriate.

A wonderful message by George Carlin:

1. The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints.
2. We spend more, but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less.
3. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time.
4. We have more degrees but less sense; more knowledge, but less judgment; more experts, yet more problems; more medicine, but less wellness.
5. We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much , and pray too seldom.
6. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
7. We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.
8. We've learned how to make a living, but not a life.
9. We've added years to life not life to years.
10. We've been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor.
11. We conquered outer space but not inner space.
12. We've done larger things, but not better things.
13. We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
14. We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.
15. We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less.
16. We've learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.
17. These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships.
18. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.
19. These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.
20. It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit “delete”...
21. Remember, spend some time with your loved ones, because they are not going to be around forever.
22. Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe, because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.
23. Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you, because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.
24. Remember, to say, "I love you" to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it. A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.
25. Remember, to hold hands and cherish the moment for someday that person will not be there again.
26. Give time to love, give time to speak! And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind.
27. AND ALWAYS REMEMBER: Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year

Wish you good health, happiness, and prosperity.
But my wish won't come true if you're not trying to afford it.

So, keep your spirit up, to face a new challenge in front of you. Give yourself promise that you will try harder and harder next year, so your wish and my wish for you will come true.

Happy New Year 2008

Hi, how are you today ?

Hi.. recently I didn't find anything interesting to post to this blog. And I'm really afraid that I'm disappointing all my blog reader. I'm serious :-)

But, in my opinion it's better not to post any article than posting a lot of garbage :-), although I can't make sure which is real garbage and which is valuable information in the point of view of my blog reader. Of course, you can help this by commenting at my post.

You know that my english isn't good, and I know it too.. :) And maybe that's why google analytics stats show me that 80% my visitor was bounced back when visiting my website at first time. That's a sad fact. But it won't make me to give up.

Life is for struggling, isn't it ? I believe that as long as I have hope and strength to keep going, I won't regret anything, and maybe I'll win someday and somehow. Life is working misteriously.
Maybe we'll face a lot of problem, but problem will teach us to make us better. And maybe we'll also stressed with problem. But for that, we just have to know that stress will keep stay in your mind because you allow it to stay.

Ok, enough for now. If you have any question, or if you only want to share your mind, you can contact me by various way. I won't give any email address because I can't tolerate spam. You can post comment and I will reply it by comment too.

Ok, then c u. Hope your life better and better.

It's what they do for a living!!!!

A little story for my blog reader :-)

A man walks into a market followed by his ten-year-old son. The kid is spinning a 25 cent coin in the air and catching it between his teeth.

As they walk through the market someone bumps into the boy at just the wrong moment and the coin goes straight into his mouth and lodges in his throat. He immediately starts choking and going blue in the face and Dad starts panicking, shouting and screaming for help.
A middle-aged, fairly unnoticeable man in a grey suit is sitting at a coffee bar in the market reading his newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee.

At the sound of the commotion, he looks up, puts his coffee cup down on the saucer, neatly folds his newspaper and places it on the counter.

He gets up from his seat and makes his unhurried way across the market.Reaching the boy, the man carefully takes hold of the kid's balls and squeezes gently but firmly.

After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the 25 cent piece, which the man catches in his free hand.

Releasing the boy, the man hands the coin to the father and walks back to his seat in the coffee bar without saying a word.

As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no lasting ill-effects, the father rushes over to the man and starts effusively thanking him saying:
"I've never seen anybody do anything like that before - it's fantastic - Are you a doctor?"
"Oh, good heavens, no," the man replies, "I work for the Inland Revenue Department".

Test Your IQ

I got this email from my friend. :
In my opinion, this picture is just a trick... I don't know.. How about you ??

This is what he said :
"

If you see this lady turning clockwise you are using your right brain.

If you see it the other way, you are using left brain.

Some people do see both ways, but most people see it only one.

If you try to see it the other way and you can, your IQ is above 160 which is almost a genius.

THIS IS NOT A JOKE. BOTH DIRECTIONS CAN BE SEEN.

Keep Your Fork

Hi. So long not to write in this blog again. Recently, I have a lot of works to do, and that made me stop blogging for a while.

Yah,... the works is still there, waiting for me. But, before that I have to post something interesting. I got it from my friend by email. And this is a good story.

And then let the story begin.

Would like to share this one with you....

Keep Your Fork

There was a young woman who had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and had been given three months to live. So as she was getting her things "in order," she contacted her Pastor and had him come to her house to discuss certain aspects of her final wishes.

She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service, what scriptures she would like read, and what outfit she wanted to be buried in.

Everything was in order and the Pastor was preparing to leave when the young woman suddenly remembered something very important to her.

"There's one more thing," she said excitedly.

"What's that?" came the Pastor's reply.

"This is very important," the young woman continued. "I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand."

The Pastor stood looking a t the young woman, not knowing quite what to say.

That surprises you, doesn't it?" the young woman asked.

"Well, to be honest, I'm puzzled by the request," said the Pastor.

The young woman explained. "My grandmother once told me this story, and from that time on I have always tried to pass along its message to those I love and those who are in need of encouragement. In all my years of attending socials and dinners, I always remember that when the dishes of the main course were being cleared, someone would inevitably lean over and say, 'Keep your fork.' It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming...like velvety chocolate cake or deep-dish apple pie. Something wonderful, and with substance!'

So, I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my
hand and I want them to wonder "What's with the fork?" Then I want you to tell them: "Keep your fork ..the best is yet to come"

The Pastor's eyes welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the young woman good-bye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see her before her death. But he also knew that the young woman had a better grasp of heaven than he did. She had a better grasp of what heaven would be like than many people twice her age, with twice as much experience and knowledge. She KNEW that something better was coming.

At the funeral people were walking by the young woman's casket and they saw the cloak she was wearing and the fork placed in her right hand. Over and over, the Pastor heard the question, "What's with the fork?" And over and over he smiled.

During his message, the Pastor told the people of the conversation he had with the young woman shortly before she died. He also told them about the fork and about what it symbolized to her. He told the people how he could not stop thinking about the fork and told them that they probably would not be able to stop thinking about it either.

He was right. So the next time you reach down for your fork let it remind you, ever so gently, that the best is yet to come. Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us.

Show your friends how much you care Remember to always be there for them, even when you need them more. For you never know when it may be their time to "Keep your fork."

Cherish the time you have, and the memories you share . being friends with someone is not an opportunity but a sweet responsibility.

Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND even if it means sending back to the person who sent it to you.

And keep your fork.

Monkey Business

Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced to all the villagers there that he would buy monkeys for $1.00.
The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them.
The man bought thousands of monkeys at $1.00 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He further announced that he would now buy monkeys at $2.00. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.
Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to $2.50, and the supply of monkeysbecame so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it!
The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $5.00! However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant would now buy the monkeys on behalf of him.
In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers. Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected. I will sell them to you at $3.50 and when the man returns from the city, you can sell them back to him for $5.00."
The villagers squeezed up with all their savings and bought all the monkeys.
Then they never saw the man nor his assistant again, only monkeys everywhere!! !
Welcome to the "Stock" Market!!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE KIDS WHO WERE BORN IN THE 1920's, 30's 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's !!

First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they carried us and lived in houses made of asbestos.

They took aspirin, ate blue cheese, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes or cervical cancer.

Then after that trauma, our baby cribs were covered with bright coloured lead-based paints.

We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets or shoes, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.

As children, we would ride in cars with no seat belts or air bags.

Riding in the back of a Ute on a warm day was always a special treat.

We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle.

Take away food was limited to fish and chips, no pizza shops, McDonalds, KFC, Subway or Red Rooster.

Even though all the shops closed at 6.00pm and didn't open on the weekends, somehow we didn't starve to death!

We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.

We could collect old drink bottles and cash them in at the corner store and buy fruit tingles and some crackers to blow up frogs with.

We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank soft drinks with sugar in it, but we weren't overweight because......

WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!!

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.

No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.

We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. We built tree houses and cubby houses and played in creek beds with matchbox cars.

We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 99 channels on cable, no video tape movies, no surround sound, no mobile phones, no personal computers, no Internet or Internet chat rooms..........WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!

We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no Lawsuits from these accidents.

Only girls had pierced ears!

We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.

You could only buy Easter Eggs and Hot Cross buns at Easter time.......no really!

We were given BB guns and sling shots for our 10th birthdays,

We drank milk laced with Strontium 90 from cows that had eaten grass covered in nuclear fallout from the atomic testing at Mara Linga in 1956.

We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just yelled for them!

Mum didn't have to go to work to help dad make ends meet!

Footy had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!!

Our teachers used to belt us with big sticks and leather straps and bully's always ruled the playground at school.

The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!

Our parents got married before they had children and didn't invent stupid names for their kids like "Kiora" and "Blade" (Ed. Nothing wrong with Blade (named in honour of champion ruckman Brendan Lade))

This generation has produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever!

The past 70 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.

We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned

HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!

God's Boxes

I have in my hands two boxes,
Which God gave me to hold.
He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold."

I heeded His words, and in the two boxes,
Both my joys and sorrows I stored,
But though the gold became heavier each day,
The black was as light as before.

With curiosity, I opened the black,
I wanted to find out why,
And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out by.

I showed the hole to God, and mused,
"I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said,
"My child, they're all here with me.."

I asked God, why He gave me the boxes,
Why the gold and the black with the hole?
"My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings,
The black is for you to let go."

Success Principles

There was once a boy who wanted to seek the secret of success. One day he approached a wise man living up in the mountains. When he found the wise man at his hut, he asked, 'Wise man, can you tell me the secretto becoming successful in life?' The wise man was silent for a while.
After a moment of silence, the wise man led the young lad to a nearbyriver. They kept walking into the river until the boy's head was fully submerged in the water. The boy struggled to keep his head above the water. To his astonishment, the wise man did not help him. Instead, the wise man held the boy's head in the water. After a few minutes the wise man pulled the boy out of the water and they proceeded to walk back to the hut. At the hut the wise man asked the young boy what he desired most when his head was submerged in water. To this the young boy quickly responded, 'Of course, I wanted to breathe, you old fool!' To which the wise man replied, 'Son, if you desire success as much as you wanted to breathe, then you will find the true secret of success.'

SUCCESS PRINCIPLES
Success is a matter of choice. If we have strong enough reasons, there is nothing that we cannot do. Once we have the reasons to do something, we will surely find the ways to do it. A mere wish would not make things happen. It is a burning desire, turned into an obsession that will generate the energy to bring you to achieve any goal that you may desire.

The Butterfly And The Flower

Hacking The Body : Fight fire without water!

Worried those wings will repeat on you tonight? "Sleep on your left side," says Anthony A. Starpoli, M.D., a New York City gastroenterologist and assistant professor of medicine at New York Medical College. Studies have shown that patients who sleep on their left sides are less likely to suffer from acid reflux. The esophagus and stomach connect at an angle. When you sleep on your right, the stomach is higher than the esophagus, allowing food and stomach acid to slide up your throat. When you're on your left, the stomach is lower than the esophagus, so gravity's in your favor.

Hacking The Body : Sinus Pressure Problem

A practical way to relieve sinus pressure problem is by thrusting your tongue against the roof of your mouth, and then pressing between your eyebrows with one finger. An assistant professor at Michigan State University College, Lisa DeStefano D.O. said that this will causes the vomer bone which run through the nasal passages to the mouth, to rock back and forth. The motion loosens congestion, after seconds, you'll feel your sinuses start to drain.

About Paypal in Indonesia

Thanks for paypal. Paypal is the best !!!

The Secret Behind Number 11

Pretty Chilling - read to the bottom. Try it out.
If you are a sceptical person - still read on as it's actually very interesting!!
This is actually really freaky!! (Mainly the end part, but read it all first)

1) New York City has 11 letters
2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.
3) Ramsin Yuseb has 11 letters. (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993)
4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets interesting:
1) New York is the 11th state.
2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.
3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11
4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6 + 5 = 11
5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 =11
6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911.

Sheer coincidence..?

Read on and make up your own mind:

1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254.
2 + 5 + 4 = 11
2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year.
3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.
4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.

Now this is where things get totally eerie:

The most recognized symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Koran, the Islamic holy book:

"For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."

That verse is number 9.11 of the Koran.


Unconvinced about all of this still ..?



Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:


Please do the following:

1. Highlight the Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.
2. Change the font size to 48.
4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS……………………

What do you think now????

The Fern and the Bamboo

One day I decided to quit.... I quit my job, my relationship, my
spirituality.... I wanted to quit my life. I went to the woods to have
one last talk with God.

"God, " I said. "Can you give me one good reason not to quit?"

His answer surprised me...

"Look around ," He said. "Do you see the fern and the bamboo?"

"Yes , " I replied.

"When I planted the fern and the bamboo seeds, I took very good care of
them. I gave them light. I gave them water. The fern quickly grew from
the earth. Its brilliant green covered the floor. Yet nothing came from
the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo."

In the second year the Fern grew more vibrant and plentiful. And again,
nothing came from the bamboo seed. But I did not quit on the bamboo".

He said, "In the third year, there was still nothing from the bamboo
seed. But I would not quit. In the fourth year, again, there was nothing
from the bamboo seed. But I would not quit."

He said, "Then in the fifth year a tiny sprout emerged from the earth.
Compared to the fern it was seemingly small and insignificant. But just
6 months later the bamboo rose to over 100 feet tall. It had spent the
five years growing roots. Those roots made it strong and gave it what it
needed to survive. I would not give any of my creations a challenge it
could not handle."

He said to me, "Did you know, my child, that all this time you have been
struggling, you have actually been growing roots. I would not quit on
the bamboo. I will never quit on you. Don't compare yourself to others."


He said, "The bamboo had a different purpose than the fern, yet, they
both make the forest beautiful."

"Your time will come," God said to me. "You will rise high!"

"How high should I rise?" I asked.

"How high will the bamboo rise?",He asked in return.

"As high as it can?" I questioned.

Yes." He said, "Give me glory by rising as high as you can."

I left the forest and brought back this story.

I hope these words can help you see that God will never give up on
you........




Never regret a day in your life.

Good days give you Happiness.

Bad days give you Experiences.

Both are essential to life.

Keep going...

Happiness keeps you Sweet,

Trials keep you Strong,

Sorrows keep you Human,

Failures keep you Humble,

Success keeps You Glowing,

But Only God keeps You Going!

God is so big He can cover the whole world with His love

And so small He can curl up inside your heart.

Joke : Virgin

...
a boy...
who had been looking out the window...
during a flight...
turned to his mother...
and asked...
if dogs have baby dogs...
and cats have baby cats...
why don't planes have baby planes...
the mother...
who couldn't think of an answer...
told her son to ask the flight attendant...
so the boy dutifully asked the flight attendant...
if dogs have baby dogs...
and cats have baby cats...
why don't planes have baby planes...
the flight attendant responded...
did your mother tell you to ask me that...
the little boy admitted that she did...
well then...
tell your mother...
that there are no baby planes...
because virgin air...
always pulls out on time...
let your mother explain that to you...

Beauty of Math

Beauty of Math!

1 x 8 + 1 = 9

12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321

1 x 9 + 2 = 11

Brilliant, isn't it?

And look at this symmetry:

11111111 x 11111111 = 123456787654321
111111111 x 111111111=123456789 87654321

Now, take a look at this...

101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:

What Equals 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more
than 100%?

We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100%.

How about ACHIEVING 101%?

What equals 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer
these questions:

If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23
24 25 26.

If:

H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K

8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%

And:

K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E

11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%

But:

A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E

1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%

THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:

L-O-V-E O-F-G-O-D

12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%

Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty
that:

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and

Japanese Ancient Proverb

Funny Story : 6 reasons not to mess with children

A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though it was a very large mammal its throat was very small. The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. Irritated, the
teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human; it was physically impossible. The little girl said, 'When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah'. The teacher asked, 'What if Jonah went to hell?' The little girl replied, 'Then you ask him '.


A Kindergarten teacher was observing her classroom of children while they were drawing. She would occasionally walk around to see each child's work. As she got to one little girl who was working diligently, she asked what the drawing was. The girl replied, 'I'm drawing God.' The
teacher paused and said, 'But no one knows what God looks like.' Without missing a beat, or looking up from her drawing, the girl replied, 'They will in a minute.'

A Sunday school teacher was discussing the Ten Commandments with her five and six year olds. After explaining the commandment to 'honor' thy Father and thy Mother, she asked, 'Is there a commandment that teaches us how to treat our brothers and sisters?' Without missing a beat one little boy (the oldest of a family) answered, 'Thou shall not kill.'


The children had all been photographed, and the teacher was trying to persuade them each to buy a copy of the group picture. 'Just think how nice it will be to look at it when you are all grown up and say, 'There's Jennifer, she's a lawyer,' or 'That's Michael, He's a doctor.'
A small voice at the back of the room rang out, 'And there's the teacher, she's dead.'


A teacher was giving a lesson on the circulation of the blood. Trying to make the matter clearer, she said, 'Now, class, if I stood on my head, the blood, as you know, would run into it, and I would turn red in the face.' 'Yes,' the class said. 'Then why is it that while I am standing upright in the ordinary position the blood doesn't run into my feet?' A little fellow shouted, 'Cause your feet ain't empty.'


The children were lined up in the cafeteria of a Catholic elementary school for lunch. At the head of the table was a large pile of apples. The nun made a note, and posted on the apple tray: 'Take only ONE. God is watching.' Moving further along the lunch line, at the other end of the table was a large pile of chocolate chip cookies. A child had written a note, 'Take all you want. God is watching the apples.'

Earn Money From Internet : Get Paid for Joining Disscussion

So, how do they pay us ? Where are the money come from ?
They claimed that they get income from ads show on every posting that we make. And they share a portion of that income to pay us. Hm, its pretty reasonable. So, why not try to join the program ? TRY this : mlot .

Internet Survival Guide

Internet is a world where a lot of people connected to the others. Crimes is also entering the cyberspace, because wherever there is human exist, the crime is also exist. So, what we have to do is to prepare ourself so we won't be a victim of the crime.
The first rule in making action in Internet is : "Do not trust everyone". We can't just give our trust without having an assurance to it. Remember that Internet is cyber space where people around the world using it, including the criminals.
While holding on to that principles, another prevention step we can do is :

1. Protect your computer with best known antivirus. Norton or McAfee is a good choice, but if you want the free one, you can use AVG Free or Avast. And don't forget to update the virus definition regularly.
2. Installing anti adware is another smart choice. It prevent the adware to steal information form our computer and it also can clean infected computer. One of the best anti adware that I know is Ad Aware.
3. Use browser with the latest version update. My recommendation is Firefox or Opera.
4. Installing firewall is also a good choice. It can prevent you from unwanted incoming connection. And in my experience, it also prevent us from trojan horse.
5. Do not ever go to an Internet banking site through the link provided by the email you got. It's really dangerous, because a link is also a tool used by "bandits" to steal your banking information. Old fashion way is the best choice. Always type the address in your browser address bar.
6. Do not rashly install software from the Internet. Downloading software from trusted source is the best option. Download.Com is my recommendation.
7. Avoid using the same password or username (recently used password and username) for every account that you have. Someone can steal information (including the password you provide) by giving interesting offer which require you to register. And if "the bandits" already know your recent password, they can use it to log on to another service you registered with like paypal, etc. So, protect yourself carefully.

Hacking The Body : Ear

Another tips for body is ear. If you are stuck in an crowd conversation with friends or others, lean it with your right ear. It's better than your left, because right ear is better than left at following rapid rhythms of speech. On opposite, if you're trying to identify a sound which is very soft, you can use your left ear. Because left ear is better at picking up music tones.
This opinion is according to the researchers at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine.

Hacking The Body : Throat

I do read some interesting article about our body. It said that if our throat tickles, then we can scratch our ear, because : "when the nerves in the ear are stimulated, it creates a reflex in the throat that can cause a muscle spasm". That's what Scott Schaffer, M.D., president of an ear, nose, and throat specialty center in Gibbsboro, New Jersey said.

Anyone interested to prove it ?

Be the boss of yourself

In life, human is usually depend on the external factor to gain happiness. Human need appreciation from others. So, human is always depend on others. Human also need money, love, and any other type of external factor. So the conclusion is external factor influence our happiness.

It's really OK if we are depended on external factor (if everything is going well). But if things is not going well, we will suffer if we can't detach what we already have.

We will be very calm if we don't have anything to worry about. We are not worry about anything because we already detach the feeling of greed, hate, and fury. And that's why we will be always happy. But to detach that feeling may be will be a hard work, especially if we are in bad luck, calamity, or distressed situation.

How's the future of e-commerce in Indonesia ?

Indonesia is one of the country which have around 202 million people. It's really a big market, but the question is how's the future of e-commerce in this country ? We all know that Indonesia is one of the top country in carding. This is a quandary, because only a small percentage of 202 million people who did carding, and the whole people of Indonesia got the consequence.

May be it's still a long time for Indonesia to remedy this situation. But, in this situation, some web store is arise. Like bhinneka.com who is one of the biggest computer web store in Indonesia. And also a newcomer like Toko Komputer 4Hoki.Com .

The example study case is 4Hoki.Com . At first it's pretty hard to do the coding, but I'll keep trying my best. What is my priority right now is to focus on customer satisfaction, because if we don't have power in financial, we have to maximize another sector which is service.

I hope this will go better and better over the time. Because our mission is pretty hard, we believe that the result must be very good too. Pray for us.

Joke : Two Nuns

There were two nuns...

One of them was known as Sister Mathematical (SM), and the other one was known as Sister Logical (SL).
It is getting dark and they are still far away from the convent.

SM: Have you noticed that a man has been following us for
the past thirty-eight and a half minutes? I wonder what he wants.

SL: It's logical. He wants to rape us.

SM: Oh, no! At this rate he will reach us in 15 minutes
at the most! What can we do?

SL: The only logical thing to do of course is to walk faster.

SM: It's not working.

SL: Of course it's not working. The man did the only
logical thing. He started to walk faster, too.

SM: So, what shall we do? At this rate he will reach us in one minute.

SL: The only logical thing we can do is split. You go that way and
I'll go this way. He cannot follow us both.

So the man decided to follow Sister Logical.

Sister Mathematical arrives at the convent and is
worried about what has happened to Sister Logical.

Then Sister Logical arrives.

SM: Sister Logical! Thank God you are here!
Tell me what happened!

SL : The only logical thing happened.
The man couldn't follow us both, so he followed me

SM: Yes, yes! But what happened then?

SL : The only logical thing happened. I started to run
as fast as I could and he started to run as fast as he could.

SM: And?

SL : The only logical thing happened. He reached me

SM: Oh, dear! What did you do?

SL: The only logical thing to do. I lifted my dress up.

SM: Oh, Sister! What did the man do?

SL: The only logical thing to do. He pulled down his pants.

SM: Oh, no! What happened then?

SL: Isn't it logical, Sister?
A nun with her dress up can run faster than man with his pants down.

And for those of you who thought it would be dirty,

I'll pray for you!

Flower of Destruction

A man-made sun rose over Bikini Atoll on March 1, 1954. Seen from 50 miles away, the 15-megaton hydrogen blast called Bravo ranks as the largest U.S. test, a thousand times greater than the atom bomb dropped on Hiroshima in 1945. What a horrible thing have it's own beauty.

The Power and The Beauty of Fire

This awsome picture was taken in the Bitterroot National Forest in Montana on August 6, 2000 at Fairbanks, Alaska by the name of John McColgan.
John McColgan is a fire behavior analyst in the employ of the USDA Forest Service. He snapped the photo with a Kodak DC280 digital camera. The shot is public property and cannot be sold or used for commercial purposes.

Quote:
"That's a once-in-a-lifetime look there. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. I've been doing this for 20 years and it ranks in the top three days of fire behavior I've seen.

They know where to go, where their safe zones are. A lot of wildlife did get driven down there to the river. There were some bighorn sheep there. A small deer was standing right underneath me, under the bridge."

Just Work Seriously

Don't let your emotion control your mind. Remember that emotion is just helper of mind. Not a decision maker !
Everyone around you is a teacher for you. No matter something good or bad happen, we can always take a lesson from every moment or event. Just watch the life drama carefully. No matter something inside you works bad or good, everything is just on it's way.

What an Incredible View of Nature !!!

A scene you will probably never get to see, so take a moment and enjoy God at work at the North Pole. This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest point. And, you also see the sun below the moon. An amazing photo and not one easily duplicated. You may want to save this and pass on to others.

These pictures below were made by a man in Magee , MS . where the eye of the storm passed thru.

Emotion

In life, almost all of human face it's own emotion. Some people say that emotion is part of human life. That's right, but something you should know, that life is full of trap.
Just try to watch your own emotion when it start to grow. You'll be amazed by how our emotion can change rapidly into a horrible form. Actually, only by watching we can learn how to create heaven or hell inside us. Our mind is the great creator of our emotion condition.

So, just observe yourself, and get the most valuable lesson in this life. Watch with clarity, beware of emotion.

The Lesson From Rat !!!

Today, I saw a Rat trapped in a cage..
I often think how stupid that Rat is.. But someone teach me that when I found other's mistake, I will do the same mistake.

May be we know that that Rat is stupid.. But do we ever think that may be we're also in cage.. the cage of mind.. illution. Actually, most of us may be trapped in a more modern cage that we can't see, so we do not have any intention to escape from it.. And also maybe... I'm sorry to say this but may be we are more stupid than that rat. At least the rat know about the existance of the cage and try to escape.

The biggest enemy is inside us, but why most of us can't see it ? Maybe because that enemy is too strong to handle.

We must not defeat enemies inside us, but we just have to try to control it.

The beauty of the eyes

Which part of human body I like most ?
May be it's the eye.. Sometime through the eyes I can see someone's character..

Talking about eyes. I like eyes of Uchiyama Rina. An actress from Japan. The eyes of her remind me to one of my best
friend. I do like her some much.. Because the eyes. The eyes made me feel a strong feeling.. the feeling that can't be explained by words. It just made you feel more power and spirit of keep struggling for everything you want, your goal.

When to give up ?

If someone ask me that question, i wonder what will be my answer.

I think giving up doesn't always mean that we are already lose. In this world, there is no perfect answer for a question like that. We just have to think about it wisely. You know, like a computer program.. there is always a bug when it run.

In one condition, I think we should not give up if our goal is a right one, which not abuse other people. We should not give up on that goal when there is still a chance left.. Altough it may be a very small chance.

In other condition, we should give up. I surely can't give an example condition about this. But we just have to be diligent, not stubborn.
