Of Politics...Football...Games...and stuff :)

Been a long time since I posted...well anyways lets get on to my thoughts on stuff thats happening nowadays.

POLITICS

Well well, I've never been so excited about Malaysia politics before. The people on top now are making silly actions which cause us rakyat to be even more hot t

han ever. ISA arrests seems like typing in a cheat code will playing a game. Some fat racist dude doesn't get any proper punishment cause he's one with the gov'. They are desperate. They are scared to meet up with Dato Seri A.I. Seems like everything is gonna change soon...I just hope that there is no violence or bloodshed involved.

GAMING

The long awaited Star Wars Force Unleashed is out!

WARNING! THERE MAYBE SPOILERS AHEAD

The Story

This a

ll started before the formation of the Rebel Alliance :

Darth Vader's doing his usual routine, hunting and killing jedi's before episode 4. Went to Kashykk, wrapped up a jedi and found that his son has potential. So he trains that kid to be his secret apprentice to kill his enemies and to bring the emperor down.

So fast forward, and the kid growns up to become a powerful sith apprentice. Goes around and whopping jedi and sith butt. Yes, somehow some other hidden sith's try to beat the kid up but then end up getting owned. Cut things short, the emperor found him and asked Vader to dispose his apprentice, in which he did and

rescue him again after that. Vader then tells the apprentice to

seek rebels and form an alliance to bring down the emperor, and also to cut ties with him so the rebels won't suspect that he's still an undercover agent for Vader.

Here is where the apprentice is human, he fell in love with his pilot and eventually really wants to be the good guy, not some undercover bad dude. So he ends up gathering all the Rebel leaders, only to get them caught by Emperor and Vader who is secretly tailing him. He then goes to the Death Star, beat the crap out of Vader and Emperor (Yes, he DOES beat the crap out of them), saved the rebel leaders and only to be electrocuted to death by the cunning Emperor Palpy.

The Good

You can electrocute troops, slice them to

pieces with your saber, throw them around like dolls, throw stuff at your enemies, choke the crap out of them, etc. Never before a Star Wars game has this much force powers to play with! :D

There are other modes like the Order 66 mode where you control a jedi/sith and play in a beat-em-up mode a.l.a Double Dragon/Final Fight. Force Duel mode which plays like a regular fighting game, and Historic Missions mode where you playback those memorable scenes from SW movies with a twist.

The Bad

Not as good as the PS3 or XBOX 360 version (duh), where the maps are larger, graphics are better, the environments are more interactive (you can push enemies through walls!), and animations are more realistic. :/

Points to ponder

1. The main character, codenamed "Starkiller" is actually more powerful than Vader and the Emperor. Heck, he tapao'd Vader first, and then he still has the energy to tapao the Emperor after that. Kinda shameful for those two main baddies for Star Wars as they lose credibility by getting whacked from a character from the expanded universe. Seems kinda wrong for me.
   
2. Vader's intention is still unexplainable. Did he really want to bring the Emperor down by training "Starkiller" and later plot to use him to unite a Rebel Alliance? Or does he just treat "Starkiller" as a tool for himself to gather and expose all the Rebels so he can capture them? Hrm...

FOOTBALL

Liverpool beat Man Utd. LOL. Take that Man Utd fans. Don't think you guys are invincible without Ronaldo. :P We did it without Torres, and Gerrard just came for a cameo appearence. :D

Anyways, Liverpool are winning lots of games so far. That's what a real champ needs...luck, skills, determination and consistency to create results. I would rather win in smaller margins all year

round, rather than winning 10-0 in a match and losing in another.

Emotional Blog Post?

After spending 6 months with my orks, its time to part...though it's short and sweet, I'll always miss you dudes. I wish that I have more Warhammer 40k players around here in Klang, but due to the rising cost of petrol , financial strains and the limited number of time I have now...it's better for me orks to find a new owner so that they can be played with.

I will be on hiatus from Warhammer 40k for now. It's time for me to move on and focus more on my career ,my future and everybody close to me. So it's not really a hard choice to make. Hey, I'm 23 years old and I know what's good for me now ya?

Thank you for your time Orkies! I hope you can continue to smash humie 'eads and introduce choppas into panzees. If I were to come back to the 40k world, there's no doubt which race I will pick again. Greenz is besh!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggghhhhhhhhh!

Anyways, Ernest and Yvonne if you're reading this...please take good care of my orks yeah? They deserve lots of care and don't be shy to use 'em to DAKKA DAKKA and clobber those beakie boyz for good!

Time for Awesumness!

Food
Things are heating up...I mean in my office. :P
Good food my stomach has taste recently. Including steamboat in the office!

Angle #1

Angle #2

Oh well...might as well take one pic from up there

Even though there are limited stuff to eat, but the soup does taste pretty good. Have to thank my sisters, Ms.Sueryn, Ms.Joyce and Ms.Suki for doing a great job there!

This weekend me and my colleague's gonna have Hi-Tea at Holiday Inn too. Pictars will be taken. Food for Life! :D

Futsal

It's been a long time since I really played futsal, but last week it was a blast. There was a tournament on Sunday and all Freight Forwarding companies are eligible to enter. My company had 2 "training" sessions (or supposedly sessions to select who's hot and who's not) and of course *AHEM* I was selected as the captain (lol). The cool thing? The entrance fee of RM300 is fully sponsored by our Director. The COOLER thing? From now on, my company's director Dato' Tio himself volunteered to sponsor us to play futsal up to twice every month! Now that's COOL.

Anyways, even though we lost...but we take pride and lesson in losing. (hey...losing to an ex-selangor and ex-malaysian commonwealth player aint that bad eh?) And we only had like 2 days of training. And I missed one of them due to some 'personal' reasons. Sorry guys! Somethings are more important ya know... :P

Team PKT United is born!

Hey dood! Don't look behind!

Things are looking great indeed for my company's sport future. I'm doing a petition for establishing a Sports Club in my company and so far so good! Everyone I asked is willing to pen down their signatures to show their support.

Oh yeah, did you realize my blog design has changed? Don't worry though....it's still kick-ass!

A'rite I guess time's up for now. See ya next time!

Support Firefox!

Hey, guess who's back?!

After a long hiatus, I guess it's time to go back to business.

First of all Firefox V 3 is out, and it's gonna be in record books!

So be a part of it and help Firefox kick Microsoft IE right in the ass.

As far as most of us Firefox user knows, Mozilla Firefox > Microsoft IE. Try it and believe it.

Oh yeah, blogspot.com has this new feature where you can post RSS feeds on your friend's blog! Check it out on the right side of my page --->

More to come soon! Ciao.

Mighty late blog update :O

Lots of stuff happened during the last post. Work, holidays and personal ones. :P

But do not worry, I'm still freaking well and kicking ass. I feel as though I just completed a very big part of my life and now I'm not only working for the future of me, but also for my partner *cough* *cough*.

Anyways, I'll be back soon enough. Just recovering from happy + busy vacation mood @.@

Ciao.

Fishing My Way To Made Of Honor

Have you seen this before? I'm sure you guys have!

I've been using the internet since I'm standard 5 (which is 11 years old, 12 years ago!). When I first go online, I remember the FIRST even website I step into was www.nba.com (Hurray!). I've start learning how to use search engines, and free emails such as Rocketmail and Hotmail. It was back then everything looks so clean; viruses are rarely heard, spywares are non-existant. Probably due to the fact that during that time 56k modem is the fastest gig around, and I'm just using a 23k modem as my first one. :O

Technology wise, everything gets better in time. BUT, there are more sh*ts around than you can imagine. Hoax mails, viruses, spywares, trojans...4 / 5 of my friends out there using the internet will have been tricked, one way or another!

I'll start with the less serious ones. Take a glance at this email (you don't need to waste your time reading all of it, just take a quick glance) :

*ok i think it's enough torture*

And this (I saw this floating around friendsters and forwarded emails many many times before) :

Subject: FW: Microsoft and AOL merger
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 1999

I'm forwarding a forwarded message...read on, it it works you may get $$ from Microsoft. Certainly Bill has enough to share-maybe today we'll be blessed financially!

I am forwarding this because the person who sent it to me is a good friend and does not send me junk. Microsoft and AOL are now the largest Internet company and in an effort make sure that Internet explorer remains the most widely used program, Microsoft and AOL are running an e-mail beta test. When you forward this e-mail to friends, Microsoft can and will track it (if you are a Microsoft Windows user) for a two week time period. For every person that you forward this e-mail to, Microsoft will pay you $5.00, for every person that you sent it to that forwards it on, Microsoft will pay you $3.00 and for every third person that receives it, you will be paid $1.00. Within two weeks, Microsoft will contact you for your address and then send you a check. I thought this was a scam myself, but two weeks after receiving this e-mail and forwarding it on, Microsoft contacted me for my e-mail and within days, I received a check for $800.00.

Heck, there are many more of these kinda craps, like "oh please forward this mail to donate get 20cents to this poor kid in this picture with cancer/wierd disease/no d*ck/watever. Please forward if you have the heart! :( :( :( "

Seriously...WHY ARE YOU GUYS TRUSTING THIS? Well, maybe those non tech savvy guys and girls may not have a clue about it but...why are you IT people got tricked? OMG, its as stupid as telling a car mechanic "Hey, I heard rumors that if you attach a bigger wing on your car, it can fly higher when you drive fast!". Some people are thinking "There's no harm trying this stuff, so oh well...it doesn't matter if I forward it right?" The answer? WRONG.

Wanna know why? Did you know that forwarded mails can be a cause of information stealing, mail spamming and time & space wastage? Lets go to information stealing first. When you forward mails to your friends, their email address will be displayed in the email message header right? Thats how spy companies get our information from! They kinda "steal" you and your friend's email so that they can spam the cr*p out of your inbox, which eventually leads to unnecessary bandwidth wastage and loading time. SNORE zzzZ.

Ok enough of the light part, now on to the more serious stuff : DANGEROUS MALWARES.
See these samples:




or stuff like this from your friends in the messenger :
"Hey tell me what you think about these photos! They are HOT

*sends a zip file named "photo.zip"

"

Stuff like this are actually more dangerous than the emails. YOU WILL BE IN DEEP SH*T IF YOU CLICKED ANY OF THE LINKS THE BOT PROVIDE YOU. Yes, its a spamming bot and NO, its not your friends. Their messenger accounts got hacked and spyware companies decide to make full us of it. If you did click, you're not only putting your own computer in trouble, but you're putting others as well. It's a freaking worm for goodness sakes, its one of the FASTEST spreading malwares out there.

The worse case scenario is that you have to format your computer. And you may not be 100% free as well, since you'll usually backup some important files before formatting your computer BUT the worm has snucked on board together with your backup files.

What about antiviruses? Aren't they suppose to do the job? Well, as far as I know, antiviruses MUST be updated a.s.a.p, and even so it doesn't guarantee your safety. Remember this logic : DOCTORS NEED TO RESEARCH TO FIND A CURE/MEDICATION/TREATMENT FOR A NEW DISEASE. Same goes for antiviruses. If the new worm/virus was just created yesterday, chances are they can slip through your computer undetected.

Alright, I guess thats enough rants to wake yourselves up. I'll briefly do a rundown on what you guys and girls know-whats :

1. Do not trust forwarded mails that promises money and sh*t like that. Doesn't work technically, scientifically and astronomically.
2. Do not click on stupid useless links and files your friend send to you in the messenger. Make a conformation with your friend on the other side first by asking "did you really send this?" and wait for his/her reply.
3. Do not simply click on advertisements on the net that says "You're computer is infected by virus! Clean up today by downloading our antivirus, etc etc". Trust me, if you start downloading from those websites...you're downloading annoying SPYWARES into your PC.
4. Do get a decent antivirus and antispyware to protect your PC, notably AVG (cause its free).

It's all about IT and tips today, so rants go into another day!

Until then Mr.Kazuki out.

I had a very very nice weekend btw. :D

Late weekend update post -_-"

I'm suppose to say somethin' about my weekend, but there are loads of work and stuff happening in my office right now, I can't even have time to blog O_o; . Kinda say "Business is about to pick up " for me! The past few days was really a blast, I've never felt that much happiness and excitement for a long long time.

Food
So anyways my weekends was a great one. Mainly 'cause my mum suddenly told me this on Sunday "eh ah pi, later I want to cook steak lo. Don't go anywhere later har." No offence to my mum's cooking, but I almost never seen her cook any kinda western food before (other than spaghetti, nuggets and fried stuff). But I was thinking what the heck...I've been tasting mum's cooking for 23 years now, should be averagely ok lah.

And so here goes...



I knew my mum is pretty good in cooking chinese food, but this really surprises me. It tastes even better than what you seen here, even my dad (who is not really a big fan of western food) manages to gobble up everything and gave my mum a thumbs up. My mum even say "aiyah, pai seh lah just learn a bit a bit only". Cis eksyen lagi...-_-"

But anyways I really have to praise and thank her for the very good food! I'll never ever doubt her cookin' again. If you smelalallala what Kazuki's mum is cookin' :O

Orks

I'll let the picture do the talking. :D

My painted collection so far




Converted Boss Snikrot! Took me days to figure out the right bits to build this dude right. Now I need to get his gang...



Next Ork boyz squad ready to be primed. The pose of the Nob looks nifty eh?



This is how the the trukk looks like on sprue.



And these are the left over sprues. Wanted to ditch em' away but, I think I may have use of those plastics. Don't waste high quality plastic!

Football

The big match yesterday! As usual, I'll never miss any great Liverpool European nights. Almost shouted when Kuyt scored the first goal (Hurray!). Almost throw the remote to the window when Riise headed the ball into the own net at the 94th MINUTE (...) . Was totally speechless. He really cracked under pressure. Few seconds also cannot tahan ah? Why need to @#$% diving header the ball when the ball is under knee level?! Go and clear the ball with the foot lah. Aishhhh. Pedih. Score ended up 1-1. Chelsea getting an away goal means Liverpool MUST score in Stamford Bridge later.

Pedih...Pedih...Argghh...!

Man of the match yesterday? Must be Chelsea keeper Petr Cech. He stopped Torres in 3 different occasions. If not for his concentration and skills, I think Chelsea tapao already. Darn.

Err...guess thats enough for now. Wanna take a rest since yesterday tak cukup tidur. Zzzz Good nite! I'll rant more about stuff by tomorrow...hopefully.

Mr.Kazuki over and out.

My mum's cooking rox.
