Getting quite a decent hit rate to my blog beside obviously from myself and dear dear.
Beside the weekends being slow, getting around 10+ hits per day from other places. In general, most are hits from google searches. Quite surprised that my blog is listed as first for the keywords "R4 spring broke".
Think these general tech tips will earn higher hits as most ppl tend to search for them or game related stuff.
Well, the higher hit rates does not help in gaining more advertisers to get me to advertise on my blog.

Certainty? In this world nothing is certain but death and taxes.
A quote by Benjamin Franklin.
Nothing is so truth than this simple quote.
Since death is certain and there is no way to avoid it as of now, think of the consequences and those who lived on without you. If you are the main earner, the living will have a difficult time to carry on living.
There are a few ways to help them but one of the easier way and perhaps more affordable is to get some form of insurance for yourself. Doing some casual browsing and hit on this site. Not applicable for Singaporeans but if you live in the US, it might be right for you.
Seems to be a great site if you are considering various insurance companies and want to get quotes as it provides Insurance Quoting Services. It also talks abt various form of insurances which is actually good if you want to find out more even if you cannot get the services. Examples are Term Policies, Whole Life Insurances, Cash back Insurances and general insurances.
As insurances can get pretty expensive at times, I am sure you want to get the best rates and save money on insurance premium. Do get quotes and ask around~!
Beside the general insurances for the individual, there are also insurances for companies, such as Corporate Insurance Plans for Employers and Employee Benefit Package, and key personnel of the companies. Hee. Hope I can reach the position of a key personnel of a company and the company will buy such insurance for me~!

R4 technically legal and Nintendo is giving up the fight
Well, finally R4 and other such 'piracy enabling devices' are recognised as legal devices, though it can be used for illegal purposes such as piracy. See the news here.
A lot of devices are also 'piracy enabling devices', such as your photocopy machine, the CD/DVD writer on your PC right now. They are legal tools but once used inappropriately, they turn illegal.
The recent SLS raid in which a few shops have their R4 or other carts seized along with pirated games. After the R4 has been used as evidence, they should be returned as they are not the offending materials.
Waiting for an official announcement from Nintendo to settle the issue.

So is Arsenal an english team or not?
The current premier league features a dominance of a "Top 4" teams. Even though the league is played in England and belongs to the English but how English are the teams are.
Out of the 4 clubs, less than half of their first XI are Englishman.
Manchester United and Liverpool are owned by US owners while Chelsea is owned by a Russian. Only Arsenal is still in the hands of Englishmen and their fans.
When Arsenal won beautifully in Europe, the British media proudly claims an English team made it good. When England loses, the media will claim that its failure is due to international team like Arsenal causing it to fail.
So who is actually an English team when the owners are not even an Englishman and half the squad is not an Englishman also?

R4 Spring broke
Finally, the R4 spring broke. Initially thought it was not broken but maybe the catch or something is not catching it. After reading up on broken springs for R4, yap, that is the end result of a broken spring.
I din exactly take the spring out but only lift the tab up and try to find the black plastic piece as mentioned. Din managed to do it but hey, the spring is fixed or at least it is not ejecting my micro sd card out.
Hope the youtube vid can help

Spanish affair
Always wanted to go Europe for a long vacation as there are many countries to visit and lots of places / things to discover.
Besides England, due to soccer interest, one of the places in Europe I like to visit is Spain.
There are many places of interest such as Torre de Bujaco, Muralla de Avila, Sagrada Familia, La Boqueria, Gothic quarter, etc. More information can be found here and here.
Thought the links can help you with many information, seems to lack information on hotels etc. You can check out this site to help you find a place and decide your lodgings.
If you are a soccer fan, you can go to Real Madrid's and Barcelona's stadium, Santiago Bernabéu and Camp Nou. And I doubt there will be tour packages for visits to the various stadiums so you need your lodgings for Madrid and Barcelona.
For something more cultural, there is also Prado museum, botanical gardens, royal palace to visit. More info here also.
Once I finally get my chance to go there, I will post more pics here~!

New handheld console~!
Yeah, I bought a new console.
Yes Yes Yes. I am neglecting my ps2 but I will come to it eventually.
So guess what I just bought? Hee. Bought a Crimson Black NDSL with R4 / 1GB micro SD card.
Bought a package from qisahn, the package is the NDSL / R4 / 1GB micro SD card / Crystal Case / 3 months warrenty / Spare Stylus / Screen protector at the grand total of $325. We went down to IOI Plaza to his shop and Dear Dear accompany me. It was a bit out of the way and due to not so smooth service, caused Dear Dear to wait a bit for me.
Had some trouble initially due to the kernel not updated then the card reader given with R4 is not working well. Made another trip down with Dear Dear to qisahn and the card reader works! After that, the card reader can be used already~! Weird hor. Rather troublesome to travel down again but Dear Dear was fine with coming along with me. We then went down to Poolfusion to play pool. Haha, we are really rusty at the game already~!
Been playing some games such as Elite Beat Agents (I totally sux at this), the original Jap feature better songs though, Trauma Center : Under the Knife and Phoenix Wright : Ace Attorney. Enjoying them totally~!

when yahoo messenger decided to have its own mind
Was trying out some trojan removal s/w to check out my system.
after running through the s/w and satisfied with the scan result of no virus found, i found one issue..
links from yahoo, aka yahoomail or url from yahoo chat etc, will pop up an IE browser! Horror of all horrors. Cant fix the issue after trying some stuff. This is a major issue as I do not use IE unless I have no choice and I use FireFox browser
finally did a google search and found this yahoo answer which works for me. Hope it will works for u also!

Resume and OCR
Just started helping my sister for a small sideline by formating candidates' resume into the required company format.
So far it has been an easy job and it only takes around 15 mins for a quick $5.
A quick glance through of the original resume is needed and then transplant information onto the template.
One resume stands out from the rest it is an image pdf which I cannot convert. Looked around for OCR scanner to pick up the words but unable to find one.
After some searching for a free OCR software, found a totally free or rather paid software already.
Surprise of all surprises, it is inside Microsoft Office. The application is called Microsoft Office Document Imaging.
There is some limitation to the application as it can only read tiff and it own MODI files formats.
It can be easily resolved by using snagit to take screenshot (use the scrolling screenshot to take a pic of the whole document), save as tiff and hey presto.
Information found at here. Credits must be given else I will not be able to blog here and advise!

Australia Trips
Well, I have been to Australia thrice so far. Twice is due to army matters and once for a vacation with Dear and her mum and granny.
Was stuck at Rockhampton twice for the army trips so nothing much to comment on that. For the vacation trip, we went to Sydney and nearby, inclusive of Darling Harbour. We stayed near Darling Harbour during one of the nights.
As we took a package tour, there are no concerns of getting a hotel to stay in. For those who plan to go Australia for a vacation, do visit Sydney. Thought of going Australia on a free and easy trip so I did up some research on places to stay. Found this website for Sydney hotels and also specifically Darling Harbour too.
As the package has a travel itinerary, we did not do much exploration. I will say, this trip is to get a general feel of the area so it will be easier to go free and easy travel on our own.
Did some researching on Sydney and surrounding areas, including Darling Harbour and turns out some interesting find.
Darling Harbour has many habourside entertainment and dining, for example, you can have alfresco dining at King Street Wharf, Cockle Bay or Harbourside. There are also ferries, cruises, sailboat, yacht or speedboat tours from Darling Harbour which allows you a fantastic view of the place and the waters. There are also free outdoor entertainment, monorail rides for an overview of Darling Harbour and surrounds.
And adding some cultural facade to the area, the Sydney Wildlife World is there also with its collection of animals unique to Australia, it is also the waterside home of Australian National Maritime Museum
And one of the best thing of all, it is just a 10-minute walk from city centre so you are not limited to doing activities on one area.
If you are planning to go Melbourne, which I do harbour some intention to go to also, you can find some great hotels here.
At Melbourne, there are lots of different restaurants, cafes, bistros and bars which really reflects Melbourne as the melting pot of cultures in Australia. Fashionable, eclectic and eccentric – Melbourne’s dining spots offer a dizzying spread of the world’s great cuisines, serving meals from the substantial and classic to the truly exotic.
In the city, you can enjoy afternoon tea in the genteel surroundings of a nineteenth-century hotel, watch and be watched in buzzing laneway cafés and bars, or handpick a bottle of Yarra Valley chardonnay at the latest über-chic hangout. Head out a little further and explore one of Melbourne’s specialist eating destinations – Richmond for cheap and cheerful Vietnamese dishes, Carlton for Italian classics, Fitzroy for tantalising Spanish tapas.
If you do explore the website I have given you, there are also hotels for other locations in Australia, do check them out!

Car insurance
Just read a thread in a forum I often visited about a fellow forumer's father in a bid to avoid accident and sped thru a red light. Hence, his father got a traffic ticket from the traffic police as there is a red light camera installed on that particular junction.
Most reactions are to brake and let the tailgating vehicle hit his vehicle will do as car insurance will take care of the bills for repairs etc.
As I have some free time on hand, so I just surf along for some car insurance available. Found this particular site which seem to offer quite a good deal. There are separated categories for different type of vehicles like Coverage For Sports Car, Classic Car Liability Insurance. There is even a quote page for those with bad driving records and tips to help the drivers
Do help yourself and other drivers by getting car insurance and a wide coverage. This is to help and protect yourself and other. You will never know when you need it.

Aftermath...
Seems like after helping a friend to blog a bit on the ODEX saga after a friend ask me to help to post the links etc, hits to my blog went up by a big rate. At the moment, more people are coming in.
The appeal to help, which I saw from the HWZ link my friend pass to me, certainly has quite a big influence. Well, I was willing to help, as the issue really is ..........
will post pics of stats later on when I reach home. Then again, it should have move more again.

ODEX saga
Did not blog anything about the ODEX saga ever since it started but I believe something has to be done abt it.
Quite lazy to write more on it as many ppl has said against and for it. For me, I am against ODEX.

Auctions
I normally do not have much luck with auctions as it always seems that I will be outbidded or bidded out of my budget. Tried reverse auctions before but seems like not much interest. Recently found a reverse auction site with a twist.
Instead of paying real money, you get to win the item you bid for! Prizes range from, Apple I-Phone’s, HDTV’s, Designer Bags, SCION XB’s to Cash Prizes. Sounds weird right! They have instructional video to guide you through the process so it is easy. Furthermore, it is a text-based reverse auction so it will be easier.
After reading through some of the instructions, seems like the number to sms to is not a SG number. I am not so sure but will check it out later. If your sms is unlimited or paid by company, this will be a great way to win some good items! Remember to check it out!

Marvel Ultimate Alliance PS2
Just got the game recently.
Pretty fun game where you get to form a team of 4 marvel heroes and go save the world from the villains of the marvel world.
Just a tip for those playing.
You will need to have Iron Man on your team to be able to use Iron Man to activate his health console. Once done, you get a skill/body/focus point (do not remember which one). Also you can use the console to heal team members by controlling it and stand at the hologram area just on the left.
Only saw this answer in one particular forum. Also, same for Dr Strange, you must have him n your team, maybe even controlling him, when walking into his room to reveal 2 skill/body/focus point.

Captain Tsubasa
Used to follow the manga of Captain Tsubasa when I was young and also played the NES and SNES version of the game
BQ told me there is a PS2 version and we got our hands on it.
Pretty okay game with total of 11 matches. Pretty small game. It is in Japanese but we can get by the simple menu and interfaces to play the game.
Quite nostalgia to relive some of the manga and the matches. Replay ability is quite low and very limited game play. I probably spent around 10 hours to finish the game and that is including replay of some matches to unlock the skills, though it is enough to get by without unlocking.
Some FAQs if you need help and you really need the help

Music Movies
Not talking about musicals but shows with a good number of songs in it. I was thinking about the movie Music and Lyrics when this idea come into the mind, did they produce the songs before or during production.
There are probably a few songs which can be composed before productions such as the main theme song, Way Back Into Love, and some of Cora's songs. Some small little sound like Love Autopsy will have to fit in the script and guess is it quite difficult to come out with the song to match the script etc.
Someone homemade clip on youtube
Artist: Hugh Grant & Haley Bennet
Song: Way Back Into Love Lyrics
Haley:
Ive been living with a shadow over head
Ive been sleepin with a cloud above my bed
Ive been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just cant seem to move on
Hugh:
I've been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just incase I ever need them again someday
Ive been setting aside time,to clear a little space in the cornners of my mind
chorus:
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I cant make it through without a way back into love
ohh
Haley:
I've been watching but the stars refuse to shine
Ive been searching but I just dont see the signs
I know that its out there
Theres got to be something for my soul somewhere
Hugh:
I've been looking for someone to shed some light
Not just somebody to get me through the night
I could use some direction, and I'm open to your suggestions
Chrous
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I cant make it through without a way back into love
and If I open my heart again
I guess Im hopin you'll be there for me in the end
Haley:
There are moments when I dont know if its real
or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration, not just another negotiation
Chorus:
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I cant make it through without a way back into love
and If I open my heart to you
Im hopin you'll show me what to do
and if you help me to start again
you know that I'll be there for u in the end

There are moments when I dont know if its real
or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration, not just another negotiation
Chorus:
All I want to do is find a way back into love
I cant make it through without a way back into love
and If I open my heart to you
Im hopin you'll show me what to do
and if you help me to start again
you know that I'll be there for u in the end

Good site for active bloggers
Found out about this website on a friend's blog. http://www.blogsvertise.com/
Normally I will not go check out urls links from blogs as I will end up following links and totally miss the content of the blog which is why I go to the blog for.
Decided to give it a try as I am waiting for my jobs to finish running and there is nothing much to do except to see sql statements being run.
Found that this particular site is actually another income-generating program specifically for blogs. Something new, I must say.
I have already Google Adsense on my blog here but I doubt it is generating much income for me.. actually none. haha.
Hopefully with this further incentive to blog, I can blog more often, more updates and yes, provide some income to.
A good recommendation for this site is to actually allow referrals, as it is an extra incentive.
Most time, I will strip away the referral part also so haha it might not work afterall.

Christopher Reeves
Was reading my past blogs and updating some with labels and editing some typos.
Came across my blog on Christopher Reeves' death.
Here some info on him on wiki.
A song for him, sounds real apt to his struggles after his injuries...
Title: Superman (It's Not Easy)
Artist: Five For Fighting
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
I’m just out to find
The better part of me
I’m more than a bird...i’m more than a plane
More than some pretty face beside a train
It’s not easy to be me
Wish that I could cry
Fall upon my knees
Find a way to lie
About a home I’ll never see
It may sound absurd...but don’t be naive
Even heroes have the right to bleed
I may be disturbed...but won’t you concede
Even heroes have the right to dream
It’s not easy to be me
Up, up and away...away from me
It’s all right...you can all sleep sound tonight
I’m not crazy...or anything...
I can’t stand to fly
I’m not that naive
Men weren’t meant to ride
With clouds between their knees
I’m only a man in a silly red sheet
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street
Only a man in a funny red sheet
Looking for special things inside of me
Inside of me
Inside me
Yeah, inside me
Inside of me
I’m only a man
In a funny red sheet
I’m only a man
Looking for a dream
I’m only a man
In a funny red sheet
And it’s not easy, hmmm, hmmm, hmmm...
Its not easy to be me

Command And Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars
Just a particular troubleshooting tip.
If you are being booted out of the game and there is an error message which goes like CnC3Game.dat has error blah blah blah. Change your graphic details to set the shader detail a level higher than the lowest mode. It works for me. =P

Salary increment!
So is it a pay increment of A or B?
Received letter from GM with regards to pay rise, he actually called earlier to tell me he will be passing me the letter and to keep it confidential.
It was quite funny as he came out of the office with a closed big work diary, with letters in the middle on it. He walked up to me, slightly flipped over the cover, locate the letter and tried to pass me the letter secretly.
I hurridly took the letter from him and kept it. The scene was hilarious to me hahaha.
2nd increment for this half year. One is end of probation increment and this is the half-yearly pay rise and promotion period.
On looking at the letter, there is some discrepancy on the salary amount.
Previously, before probation ended, my salary is S1. After probation and increment, my salary is S2. The letter wrote that I be having a pay rise of A to S3. However, S2 + A is more than S3 but S1 + A = S3.
In short, the increment to my current salary will be higher than the final salary written on the letter. But if the increment is added to my initial salary, then it matches the final salary.
So am I getting a pay rise of A amount (my salary will be more than S3) or actually B amount (which is lesser than A amount) to make it to salary S3?
Will post here once it is sorted out.
edit ~
called HR to ask liao. I email my GM and he say to call HR directly.
Seems like it was a big back mistake! haha. So I will be getting my increment A to get salary S3
woo hoo~!

New Games!
Went with dear dear to buy her NDSL Theme Park on Saturday at Comics Connection.
Currently, there is an EA promotion going on, buy 2 EA titles and get the 3rd EA title free. The titles can cross all platforms, as long it is an EA game.
The free title obviously is the cheapest title but minimum requirement is that all 3 titles must be at least $49.90.
So we choose NDSL Theme Park, PS2 Burnout Dominator and PC Command And Conquer 3, 3 original games at $114 ++.
Not a bad deal I feel. :P

Henry left Arsenal...
On June 25, 2007 Henry was transferred to FC Barcelona for a fee of £16.1 million.
Guess Henry finally left. I thought Henry will leave after 1 more season but guess it was not to be. Though most fans will lament for his departure but deep down, we also know it is sooner or later. Guess it is sooner.
Well, all the best and best of luck in Barca, Henry.

Music and Lyrics
Watched the movie Music and Lyrics, starring Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore.
Nice movie! It has a simple premise and a standard plot. As the story moves along, you can almost half predicted the next move. The ending was a bit different than what I expected. Lots of music and songs in the show, which surprising sounds very good despite the 80's feeling and sound.
Had a good time watching show with A. Actually this is a movie that I may not exactly watch but turned out to be a gem. Good reviews from colleagues makes things easier to say yes to A's request to watch it.
Nonetheless, it is worth watching it and thanks dear. Hee, else I would not have watch ti also
