Fuzz ( PicVid )

2007-09-18T22:40:00.000+08:00

I called Fuzz as a Picture Video (PicVid).Many people don't understand what Im trying to show in this PicVid,ok,that is a video depicting- the Plight of US army,the Unjustified War,the Devilish of RIAA/MPAA or Media,the corporation,the uncertain state of Xers and civilian,the Superior domination over the Inferior ,the World gone Wild and the unrevealed Big Lies with River Of Deceit by Mad Season as the ending song ;-) And the rest of it I will leave you all to figure it out.Thank you.

This kid follows his father who makes a living by selling newspapers to people in cars when they are stopping for traffic light,he walks to every car begging people to buy a newspaper while knocking the windscreen for our attention.That is how i came out with this photograph. ^^

Wise Old Man

2007-09-12T10:52:00.000+08:00

This is my first portrait made in Singapore’s SMRT.This shot was my luck, and that time I knew I have to be ready for luck, so I saw this wise old man ,sitting alone, looking around innocently, being in a big contrast of old and young generation environment, it seems hard for him to be part of it.Ok,now I want to ask you all –What do You See, Do You Realize Anything, What do you feel, what do you ‘listen’ when you look at this photograph and why or what is it exactly that makes this photograph looks to be in a sad tone?! Think about it for a moment and let’s discuss it!! Yeah…. ^^

Photograph of Dead People

2007-09-10T17:54:00.000+08:00

I got the inspiration to do this after reading the Newsweek’s article talking about DEAD PEOPLE PHOTOGRAPHY.I am so fascinated of after people die, how they will look like. DEATH is inevitable, but after people die and lay there, everything seems to be so natural, so obvious that there is no secret left behind, with the pure contrast. The following photography took place in my class room. While my Teacher-I-Hate was doing his business at a corner ,then I also doing my stuff at the back, =) Thanks to my friend ,Hoong Sern,as my model ^^

My Dear Malaysia - 3/12

2007-09-04T22:34:00.000+08:00

Dear Malaysians,

I left Malaysia in search of a better life where I am free to think and do as I please, where nobody tells me what to think and do. I am a free spirited individual.
I have relatives and friends who now live in the United States, UK, New Zealand, Holland, Canada, and Australia - and call these places home.

If I were in your position, with all the racial discrimination back home in terms of places in the country tertiary education institutions, scholarships etc, I would be happy to pack up my bags and leave like one have done - like I and others like me, have done though for different reasons.
Life is more than just having a good job - and is not to be measured in terms of dollars and cents alone. I am not prepared to live a lie and say that I am happy when I am not.
We are among the fortunate in that we are able to exercise our freedom of choice. Others do not know what they are missing.

Freedom of speech is very important and should be upheld by every single individual be it in Malaysia or abroad. The Malaysia public has not reached the stage of speaking out their views and minds at the moment, but we have to make drastic changes for the benefit of all regardless of race and religion.

I am left speechless that now after 48 years of independence, Malaysians are still talking about the Malays, Indians and Chinese race and calling each other names, and telling each other to leave Malaysia if they don't like it.

No matter what topic writes, the posting still leads back to us versus them, Malays versus Indians/Chinese, or vice versa. Please realise that not all malays share the views expressed and not all Indians/Chinese share the same views.
Maybe some have been disappointed or rejected are using this board to vent their anger and in doing so fan the fire or racial hatred. I really object when posters say the Malays, the Indians, the Chinese, etc. This is brushing the whole race with the same slur just because of the acts of a few.

I believe that the better 'educated' people are, the lesser bigot they are. Trust the professional malays (the ones who read widely). The ones you meet or hear about are perhaps 'trained' to be professionals and not 'educated' - they perhaps have not even touched a book from the day that they graduated.

So, perhaps you should not include them in the same category as what we have here at this forum. See, let's encourage them, the others, to get exposed to the 'elements' in the real global society and then perhaps they would turn around to create a better nation for Malaysians.
I believe the first thing that should be changed is the ridiculous race column in our forms. The day we stop filling up the form as Malay, Indian, or Chinese and etc……….we will be truly Malaysians.

Now you know the reason I left Malaysia. Every race has a place in Malaysia. No Malaysian should feel he/she is a second class citizen. Just because the NEP provides privileges to the malays does not make the malays first class citizens. Remember this is just a privilege, not a right.

The right is to vote, own land, make money, live a peaceful life, do business and buy properties. Nobody can take that away from the citizens.
When you talk about emigration, there is more to it than just economics - and affirmative action policies.

It is our choice - and we are happy for it.
We still have roots back in Malaysia. We are thankful that as a result of their discriminatory policies, we are leading happy and fruitful lives in countries like the United States - where we are free, and I mean free.

From Tim.

My Dear Malaysia - 2/12

2007-09-03T00:01:00.000+08:00

Dear Malaysians,

People who are still staying in Malaysia were taken as fool by the government in many ways:
1) Social
2) Laws
3) Economics

Government also thinks Malaysia has provided the best of all for the Chinese immigrants from China. But it was not true, I regretted that my grandparents went to Penang and didn't take the ship to San Francisco. Well, they have no choice because as they only had go to East South Asia instead of San Francisco.
People who went to North America were other Chinese.
Vietnamese who left Vietnam in the 70s are better off now in North America. I think about my people in Malaysia and I am very sad.

Chinese Malaysians are not treated with respect by the malay-led government. I suggest Chinese demand for greater freedom and demand all the way.
Until government accepted and give in to your demand, and if they refused, all who are persecuted by the Malaysia laws can apply to be refugees in Canada.
Vietnamese refugees have received better treatment from Canada when I compared it to the treatment received by us - the Chinese in the malay-led country - A racist nation until today.
When you apply at any port-of-entry (airport/ boarder/seaport) to be refugee claimant, you are treated with respect.
Immigration will be processed. You will also receive monthly welfare money until you have established yourself or family.

I think this alternative provide an avenue for all Chinese who are stuck in Malaysia to demand full recognition from the malay. Chinese always hold back and too afraid to speak out. With this refugee system available in Canada, you should speak out and if the government played you out, you can come here.
Many people in the world are using this way to speak up and get better freedom back home. One very good example was 'Tienanmen' activists, they were granted refugee status not only Canada but also USA.

When you speak up for your own right, you stand to win. Regardless of which way you take - in Malaysia (political activist) or ended up in Canada as refugee.
Chinese in Malaysia, don't be a fence sitter.

From Vesewe.

Does The World Really Need Politicians?

2007-09-01T09:58:00.000+08:00

Here is a blasphemous joke , which goes as follows: On the first day, God created the Universe. On the second day....etc....and, on the seventh day, God rested. And when God rested the politicians took over the world and screwed it up. Blasphemous? Maybe! But certainly a reflection of fact don’t you think so?

My Dear Malaysia - 1/12

2007-08-31T13:37:00.000+08:00

Hai guys,I will start posting some 'letters' written by some thoughtful Malaysians.Actually,they wrote these articles as a comment in my old blogpost.They express their point of view about Malaysia and most of them have migrated to other country,Why?Read on to find out ! Enjoy ^^

Dear Malaysians,

In Malaysia we have the crony group. They continuously recommend new rules and regulations to be implemented and legalised by their front liners, a.k.a. the government, to squeeze the normal folk of their pennies. Surprised? I'm not.

The Public Services Department (PSD) and their scholarship awarding criteria is a yearly event. It is an annual drama during which the non-bumi students protest after which the government will intervene and award them PSD scholarships. Why couldn't these deserving students been given scholarships in the first place? That's a question never answered. The drama will be played out again next year. Same play, different players. And imagine the horror when it was revealed that of the 12000 Approved Permits (APs) that were awarded in 2003, one single deserving human being in our beloved country was given 6000.He must be an immensely blessed human being to be granted such a privilege. But hey, the government is not answerable to you or to anyone.

Our Barisan Nasional government is not concerned enough to come out and explain why such a privilege was granted to this one person in Malaysia. Never has, never needed to. And why do we now need to pay extra for a hologram label on our medicine? Who gets to make the contract to supply the hologram? Why do we keep paying a higher toll for the use of our highways? Where does all the money go? Why was the Penang Outer Ring Road project given to a company without a background in constructing highways? Along with the privilege to develop prime locations on Penang island? Why do we have to work harder for a smaller share of the pie? Why are the privileged ones getting away with criminal acts? Why are the ministers' children attending international schools instead of national schools?

Why? Because we live in Malaysia, and Malaysia Boleh.

I was the one who shot this video.haha... That was a Government's Servant or a worker from M.P.P.J trying to 'Clear Up' all the cats in the resident area due to the complaints from the residents saying that the cats are getting into their house and shit in there even after they have closed all the windows and bla...bla..bla...

I asked a officer where they are taking those cats to,they told me a place something like called 'Taking-Cats-Seriously' Association. It seems like people are taking damn seriously about their own security in every aspect nowadays,but they never sought out what exactly or the ROot of the reasons that make this 'taking-tight-security' phenomenon happening !To find the ROot of reasons,maybe you can implement my Theory Of Interconnnected Answers =) If this phenomenon keep on arising in the next few years,well,that is sad,because it shouldn't be happened at all !

This is probably another one of my favorite shot ! I asked my condo guard "How would you like this photograph?" He replied " What The Hell Is That !?" Ok,let me explain,that is a simply a leaf after a heavy rain that is why there is some 'Dew' on it and the white background is actually the sky.That's all.Unfortunately,the Macro mode of my point-and-shoot camera is not good enough. (T_T) .I apologize.Thank you.

Listen to Pandora in Winamp

2006-05-15T18:55:00.000+08:00

You need the latest version of Winamp (5.21 at the moment). All you need to do is browse to the winamp directory, enter the plugins/ml/ folder and edit the file “ml_online.ini”. Find the line that contains “ElementID7=-1” and replace it with the following lines:

ElementID7=7000
ElementIcon7=11003
ElementSubbed7=1
ElementName7=Pandora
ElementURL7=http://www.pandora.com/?cmd=tunermini
ElementID8=-1

Open Winamp again and head to Media Library/Online Services/Pandora. You will need an account with pandora to make this work. If you have one you are ready to enjoy it in winamp.

The Only Way You Can Control People Is To Lie To Them

2006-05-10T19:19:00.000+08:00

"THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTROL PEOPLE IS TO LIE TO THEM..., because the second you start telling anybody close to the truth, you start releasing him and he gets tougher and tougher to control." - Technique 88

Yes,that is quite true, isn't it? I think 69 % of Americans will agree with that after enduring what George W.Bush has done to them. ;-)

In my opinion,by lying to us,we will lose our 'active soul' that every man contains.This 'active soul' sees and creates the truth alive,so with the lies around us,we will lose the ability to think and figure out the truth,in other word we lose the pure connection to the reality.They lie to us to retrict the consciousness in ourselves that maintains that God and the State are non-existent that their promises are naive and can only be fulfilled through man's subordination.So,it can be concluded that "THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTROL PEOPLE IS TO LIE TO THEM".Thank You. ^_^

Where To Find Free Mp3

2006-05-09T17:45:00.000+08:00

Ok,as we all know,we have to say Goodbye to BearShare due to cease-and-desist settlement from the RIAA ,while Warez P2P, Limewire, eDonkey, and Soulseek will follow up soon.In the sense of advocating a Free World with Free Culture,here are the places where you can find tons of Free music or Mp3. Before that, of course, you can buy legal music from iTunes with $0.99 per song if you can afford to.

Here are the Top Free Mp3 Sites

How To Find Mp3's With Google

1. Example Strings

- "index of" + mp3 + "radiohead"

2. Example Strings

- "directory listings" + "mp3" + "radiohead"

By the way,any prediction from you guys about the future of BitTorrent ?

My Mental Illness Is Better Than Yours

2006-05-07T10:39:00.000+08:00

Oh no,I think I am suffering from LOW LATENT INHIBITION (LLI) !I checked out this term after watching tv series, Prison Break yesterday night that the main character,Michael Scofield is also sufferring from LLI.Many people are not familiar with LLI term,ok,according to Wikipedia,having LLI means-

Unable to subconciously ignore stimuli from the outside
Constantly thinking of ways to improve the world
In desperate need to help others and reduce suffering from the people surrounding you
Not a genius at school, but still full of creative ideas.

For example,normal people look at a tree and see a tree; people with LLI look at a tree and see the leaves turn brown on the edges, see the little cracks in the branches etc.Yeah,just like me!

Let say I saw a big building .Normally,normal people would see or simply scan through it as Just A Big Building,but I love to notice the small small oblivious things, it’s like zooming in, capture it and analyze them, such as the cracks on the building, how the architecture meet up and I am sure that there are much more to see rather than seeing it as Just A Big Building !

Well,it is pretty obvious that I am suffering from LLI,but guess what,that is fucking Cool,judging from above 4 decent conditions for having LLI !!! (Thanks to No One,not even gOd) Hell yeah...I am so glad and 'luckily' I got this kind of mental illness(LLI) rather than Anorexia nervosa,ADHD and all the freak mental illness,I guess LLI is kinda freak too (^_^)//

Civil Disobedience, Not Demos, The Way To Go

2006-05-05T22:46:00.000+08:00

In Malaysia,one day,people are on the way to a demonstration to protest the corruption in Proton Company and the skyrocketing oil price.Surprisingly,these people who are hating and ranting about PROTON ,drive their Malaysian-made Proton that is highly priced and of poor quality to reach there.Or do they drive their better-quality non-Proton car that has been heavily taxed to give Proton a competitive edge ? And I am sure, on the way to the demonstration, they filled up their fuel tank with the ‘expensive’ petrol that they are protesting against.

What is the purpose of these demonstrations? To express outrage? Bullshit! If you are really outraged, you would do more than just stand on the street corner for an hour and shout and scream. You would do something worthwhile if you are genuinely concerned and really angry.Why bother to protest? Is it because it affects your pocket?Well,that is called Pure selfishness!

Well,you can buy another brand at a more expensive price so that you do not support what you are opposed to.,this is called sacrifice .You just can not change or fight anything without sacrifice.Erm....what about sacrifice your life?Fuck that,you will not even sacrifice a small portion of your money.Don’t talk about your life.You are too weak to live,too cowardly to die. You are not even prepared to risk our freedom, our job, our salary, or the comforts that we have become addicted to.Because we are scared of retaliation and detention and all the Laws in front of us restrict our free display of human energy and expression of inner beautiful thoughts.

Sure, everyone wants the freedom to speak the truth and oppose transgressions. But they would do it behind the safety of their computers and use undetectable pseudonyms.Yes,you are a coward,and again I understand that,you are scared of retaliation and detention.So,if you are opposed to Proton, then don’t buy it, buy another brand. If you are opposed to the increase in fuel prices, then don’t buy petrol. If you know McDonald is evil,then don't eat it ! Simple as that!

If you are opposed to the government, then practice civil disobedience.And if you are not ready to do all this because you are not prepared to sacrifice, face the risk of retaliation, suffer the consequences, or lose your job and the comforts that come with it, then shut the fuck up and do the safe thing by not doing anything.

How to watch ABC TV Streams outside the USA

2006-05-04T17:46:00.000+08:00

ABC has launched their streaming service on their website,they offer episodes of Lost, Desperate Houswives, Alias and others right from the website.But,unfortunately they are not for users from outside USA.They will know by checking your IPs origin and the whois.However,all you need is a http proxy that is hosted inside the USA .Here is the step-by-step.

1. Download Charon to check proxy servers for those variables.

2. Open it.Simply select Check Proxies and then Scan Search Engines for new Proxies.Charon will find some proxies that are then displayed in the table.

3. Now select Check Proxies and Check Anonymity of all Proxies.

4. Select Connect Options and chose Use External Judge(s).

5. You must have enough good ones or a finished test sort the proxies by the Country tab. Only USA proxies are working so we need one of those. The Anonymity tab should state YES. If both are correct right click the line and select Copy to clipboard and Copy selected IP:Port.

6. Open your browser and paste the proxy address into its proxy settings. For firefox you select Tools >> Options >> Connection Settings >> Manual Proxy Configuration and add the proxy and port there.

7. Close it and visit the abc streaming site. If you see a Launch button you are ready to enjoy the tv shows.

8. ENJOY THE *FREE* SHOWs (^_^)//

By the way,this is the proxy I am using and it's working flawlessly : 72.197.42.85 Port : 7212

Thank you and Enjoy !

How To Disable Microsofts New Anti-Piracy Program (UPDATE)

2006-05-01T05:30:00.000+08:00

Ok,since I am living in Malaysia,hence I am facing this 'Microsoft's Bug' this morning when I on my computer.

However,I still couldn't get rid of this 'Bug' after following this method.(source)

In explorer, go to Tools > Folder Options. Then, go to View > Advanced Settings and uncheck “Use simple file sharing”. Hit OK. Now, let’s change the permissions for WgaLogon:
In the Address bar, type (without quotes) “%WinDir%\system32″ and hit enter.
Scroll down to WgaLogon.dll, right click on it, pick Properties. Go to Security.
Hit the Advanced button, uncheck the Inherit box at the bottom, hit the Copy button, then hit OK. Now we have a local copy of the ACL which we can modify.
Go through each listed user/group and remove the “Read & Execute” permission for that file, leaving the “Read” permission as-is.
Hit OK to apply the permission changes and close the file properties dialog. Restart the machine. You can now turn “Use simple file sharing” back on, if you want.

UPDATE:

The bug is GONE ! After I did this :

Run Task Manager
Kill the WgaTray.exe Process
Go to System32 folder
Rename wgatray.exe and wgalogon.dll to something else
Restart

End of annoying messages

Human Laws Are Invalid

2006-04-22T08:50:00.000+08:00

Human Laws Are Invalid,Because They Are Contrary To Laws Of Nature ?

" A natural law is that factor in man which asserts itself freely and spontaneously without any external force, in harmony with the requirements of nature. For instance, the demand for nutrition, for sex gratification, for light, air, and exercise, is a natural law. But its expression needs not the machinery of government, needs not the club, the gun, the handcuff, or the prison. To obey such laws, if we may call it obedience, requires only spontaneity and free opportunity. That governments do not maintain themselves through such harmonious factors is proven by the terrible array of violence, force, and coercion all governments use in order to live. Thus Blackstone is right when he says, "Human laws are invalid, because they are contrary to the laws of nature."

The 'function' of this guy is to collect and clear rubbish from 17th floor to 1st floor of my condo everyday .He has been doing this job for 2 decades and his monthly wage is about $ 225 .There can be no talk of Real Wealth if a man is doomed to collect rubbish for 20 years of his life.What he gives to the world is only gray and hideous things,reflecting a dull and hideous existence -too weak to live,too cowardly to die.There is no possibility for him to choose the mode of work,the conditions of work,and the freedom to work and of course there is no free display of human energy in himself !

What does the history of parliamentarism show? Nothing but failure and defeat,not even a single reform to improve the economic and social stress of the people.

Sleep Less, Live Longer?

2006-04-18T22:13:00.000+08:00

Increased Death Rate Associated With Sleeping 8 Hours or More

"Although it’s a common belief that 8 hours of sleep is required for optimal health, a six-year study of more than one million adults ages 30 to 102 has shown that people who get only 6 to 7 hours a night have a lower death rate. Individuals who sleep 8 hours or more, or less than 4 hours a night, were shown to have a significantly increased death rate compared to those who averaged 6 to 7 hours."

That is an excerpt from UCSD. This study is definitely scary for most of you,exclude me because I sleep less than 7 hours per day. pheww..... (^_^)//

The Survival Of A Poor Guy

2006-03-30T22:53:00.000+08:00

See a weight meter in front of him? Yes,that is pretty amazing survival- after you measure your weight,you will pay him about USD 0.06 ! I notice that rarely people would do that(measuring your weight on a busy street with a lousy weight meter,right?).However,this is how he is struggling to survive in this post-modern culture and corporate globalization world and i strongly believe that he is not the only one...... He is hoping for hope everyday and i know that is like torturing in hell... God Bless Him.

Theory Of Interconnected Answer

2006-02-22T10:04:00.000+08:00
Ok,let’s take an example,simply start with a question: Why are you beating me >>> because you stole my stuffs >>> Why did you stole my stuffs >>> because I need them >>> Why do you need them >>> because I can't afford to buy it>>> Why can't you afford to buy it>>>and so on.That is a like a Open Question.

Here is another example,we all know people are robbing today,WHY?!!! There gotta be something wrong in the System like Distributing income and if that reason is wrong,don't stop ! Keep seeking to the 'ROot of Problem' .So,if we get to the bottom of all the reasons that given,we will seek out the'Bug' and fix it! And the police should never existed in this world,it is a misdirected human energy,just like doing Crime,and the same goes to military and war precautions.Who knows in the end,people will start asking "Does the world really need Politicians?". You could test and apply this theory by start asking yourself a problem that is happening in the world today.

So, now do you get where it goes on? It is like --Why A,cuz B, Why B, cuz C , Why C , cuz D , Why D , cuz E , Why E ,cuz F and so on….You got the whole picture? They are interconnected. I think this is parallel with the philosophy of Space & Motion ( not Space & Time) and WSM( Wave Structure of Matter ).The Many Things(the Answers) are interconnected with One Thing (the Question).

By using this concept,we will travel to the very ,very root or foundation of everything and on the way ,we shall fix the problems appropriately,since they are interconnected,there is a big likelihood the outcome will be affected and as a result things will be getting better ! This is also crucial to our true understanding of physic ,evolution and the survival of human being !

This theory is a simple perspective,but people just......Well,that is SAD.
