Sense of smell

Haven't been able to smell for more almost 2 weeks now. All because of my sickness. But now feeling better. Except for the constant headache. Otherwise I'm healthy as a horse, a week horse that is.

I really wish I could smell again, so that I can taste the food. For me food is now just odourless. Cant even differenciate between coffee and tea.

Fire in the hole!!

Was woken up by my parents. 5 am in the morning. There was a fire at my neighbour's house. Call Doc C. I immedietely call Dr C and told him that his house was on fire.
Then I quickly went down to see if i can put out the fire. But the fire was too big. And I was onlone. And still sick.

Then I just used the garden hose to wet my neighbours wall. Just to cool it down.
Waited for a long time for them to arrive. While my father calls the police and fire department.

The bomba took a very long time. My advice to everyone. if you have a fire, better put it out yourself. You definately cant wait for them cos each seconds count.

Sick...

Down with flu, fever, cough, headache and whatever you can name.
Today finally I can stay awake for the whole day doing nothing.
After 3 days of non-moving, with the exception of getting up for wc and drink a few sips of water. Thats about it.

I lost 4 of my 5 senses during this time. Actually all my senses are down But my sense of smell is completely lost. I can taste the 4 basic taste = sweet, sour, salty and bitter(especially heigthen this time).

Cant smell anything. Cant smell the roses. Cant even smell my own shit. (Not that i try ok?) No toilet business for this week. hahaha.

Went to see a few doctors.
Finally afraid that i was getting dengue after my camp at YMCA so went to do a blood test. Luckily it was not dengue. But the doctor gave me 5 types of medicines!!
1)Chlorpheniramine
2)metoclopramide()
3)erythromycin
4)paracetamol
5)Mist. ammonium & ipecacuanha ()

Trojan

Infected by a trojan. The trojan created an open UDP port at 123.
Then another TCP at 135( I think... but this port is used by Netbios).

Then it creates a folder Recycler/S-5-3-42-2819952290-8240758988-879315005-3665/jwgkvsq.vmx
Size is 159KB. It also creates an autorun.inf file with the size of 58KB.


Services stared using the svhost.exe
C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs

By using services.msc I identified a few services that use svhost.exe
Service name:
1)Help and Support from the services menu.
2)COM+ Event System
3)Windows Management Instrumentation
4)Themes
5)System Event Notification

This is which i have disabled during startup so it should be the source of infection.
6)DHCP Client
7)Computer Browser
8)Secondary Logon
9)Server

WolframAlpha


A new kid is coming to town. And it is going to be big. Bigger than Google.
And it is called WolframApha.

What it is you may ask? Simply put, it is an electronic brain, that can answer you questions. I mean answer your questions! Like in using natural language.
Google uses keywords that you typed in the search engine and compared it with the huge databases that it has.

Wolfram:


Wolfram Alpha is a system for computing the answers to questions. To accomplish this it uses built-in models of fields of knowledge, complete with data and algorithms, that represent real-world knowledge.

For example, it contains formal models of much of what we know about science — massive amounts of data about various physical laws and properties, as well as data about the physical world.

Evolution of Religion

Had a revelation!
Found out that religion and life is almost the same.
Not the philosophical kind of way.
But literally.

How does life begin?
From the mud. From prions. From proteins.
How does it replicate?
By using DNA, RNA.


How does religion begin?
From animism. Polytheism.


Then monotheism. Hindu. Buddhism.

童话 - 王光良

Just watch the mv. It is about a guy learning to sing and play for a competition. Then he puts his handphone on the piano so that his girlfriend can listen to him.
Because the girl is sick...

You can read the English translation of the song in the movie below.



忘了有多久 再没听到你
对我说你最爱的故事
我想了很久 我开始慌了
是不是我又做错了什么

你哭着对我说 童话里都是骗人的
我不可能是你的王子
也许你不会懂 从你说爱我以后
我的天空 星星都亮了

我愿变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会像童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局

我要变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会像童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局

我会变成童话里 你爱的那个天使
张开双手变成翅膀守护你
你要相信 相信我们会像童话故事里
幸福和快乐是结局
一起写我们的结局
