War in Gaza

It has been more than a week since the Israeli forces went into Gaza. Don't get me wrong but I don't really care about war in far away places. I think that war is the stupidest thing man could ever do.

Anyway when I saw a photo of a father crying for his children, my heart cried out for them. This is stupid....

The Israeli is wrong to "attack" Gaza. But then Hamas is stupid too. Why can't they just say sorry and they lose the war. Then the civilians could at least be saved.

Sigh... Just pray for all of them.

PS: Here is a link to a different point of view. On why Hamas is the wrong side here. It is written by Alan M. Dershowitz. He is a law professor at Harvard. His latest book is The Case Against Israel's Enemies (Wiley, 2008).

Here is a link showing Hamas requesting children to form a human shield!

Keyboard Problem

Had a problem with my keyboard. When I type in @ the char # will appear. Actually it not the problem with my keyboard. It is keyboard remapping. It is just that when I installed East Asian Language in my computer. At that time I set the keyboard setting to UK.

The solution? Just remove the UK keyboard from the Regional Settings and install US keyboard. Thats all.

Trouble with Internet

Want to connect to internet but having problem just now.
My DSL light is stable. Its just that I cant connect to the net.
After spending almost an hour with the support from TM doing this and that.
Finally found out the problem....

My DNS server. Should put it to streamyx's DNS.
The DNS are:
202.188.0.133
202.188.1.5

Before that I have to flush DNS.
The command is ipconfig /flushdns

Actually I have been using OpenDNS for quite some time without much problem.
Maybe its because of the undersea cable near Egypt. I don't know.
Later maybe I'll change again.

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart

The video to "Last Christmas" saw George and partner Andrew Ridgeley accompanying girlfriends to see friends at their home in an unspecified ski resort, although the cable-car that can be seen in two shots is from Saas-Fee, Switzerland. It became clear early on, however, that Andrew's girlfriend had previously been in a relationship with George, and it was to her character the song was aimed.


This is the version by Hilary Duff

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Tell me baby do you recognise me?
Well it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me

(Merry Christmas!) I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I Love You" I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again

(CHORUS)

(Oooh. Oooh Baby)

A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
My God I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
A face on a lover with a fire in her heart
A man undercover but you tore me apart
Oooh Oooh
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
(CHORUS)

A face on a lover with a fire in her heart
(Gave you my heart)
A girl undercover but you tore me apart
Maybe next year
I'll give it to someone,
I'll give it to someone special (special)
someone
someone

===============
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
who'll give me something in return
I'll give it to someone
hold my heart and watch it burn
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special
I've got you here to stay
I can love you for a day
I thought you were someone special
gave you my heart
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone
last christmas I gave you my heart
you gave it away
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone

Night out....

Went for a yamcha session last night. With a few acquaintances.
A few professionals. Some of them pharmacist, doctors, police officers, and politicians. No lawyers this time. So as usual the topics will usually turn to the issues of corruption, politics and gangsterism. We argued on what should the opposition do. What they are doing wrong and stuff like that.

We questioned him(the politician) about on why Anwar still doesn't want to take over the government if he already has the numbers? Where is the shadow cabinet? The reason is quite long and I'm not going to put it here. Still the same issue. You can find the explanation in Malaysia Today.

New mouse again

My old mouse, MobileGear is still quite new, meaning I haven't use it in more than a year when the axel of the scroll wheel snapped. I bought it this CNY with my sister.
Sigh... Want to see if i can glue the broken plastic back together. If not then I have to use the new mouse.


Today bought another mouse for my laptop. This time I bought Logitech V120 optical laser mice. Cost RM55.00 with 3 years limited warranty. Don't know what does that mean. Maybe some of you can give some idea.

Anyway here is the feature stated on the website: Convenience

Cord Management: Cord winds neatly into base, USB plug snaps securely into place protecting laser lens.

But I think it is quite troublesome if I just need a short cable from mouse to laptop. Maybe a spring operated cable is much better.

Shoes for Bush

These two days the news is full of news about Bush being attacked by a reporter.
The second day,(yesterday)there is a flash version of the game.


Then today I found a funny image. But it is quite big. Over 1Mb in size. If it is copyrighted please tell..
The title is "Bush Captured!"

If you do watch pokemon, you will understand... Haha..
