return to the “village”

May 25th, 2007

it seems like yesterday
not far away
typically with island breeze
all the memories remain permanent in my mind
the destination long last that i will go
the only place where i really care
for every second i had lost

selamat balik kampong!!!!!!!!!
see u next semesta

someday

May 25th, 2007

someday
when my life has passed me by
i’ll lay around and wonder why you were always there for me
one way, in the eyes of the passer by
i’ll look around for amother try and fade away

just close ur eyes and i’ll take you there
this place is warm eithout a care
we’ll take a swin in the deep blue sea
i go to leave and you reach for me

some say better things will come our way
no matter what they try to say
you were always there for me

duit mara datang lagi

May 17th, 2007

pening jika difikirkan
tetapi sukar untuk melafazkan
apa yg tersembunyi di hati
setelah tibanya duit maraku sayang
buat kali kedua

kali ini
dalam versi kedua
duitku melipat ganda
rasa sedikit lega dengan kehadirannya
walaupun kemarahan belum reda

satu lagi belum terurai
hanya menunggu masa
penantiannya sunnguh menyiksakan jiwa
datang lah dalam versi ke-3
cuma jumlahnya berlipat ganda

ku bersyukur
pada saat dan ketika ini
penantianku tidak sia2..

flying over expectation

May 17th, 2007

do i feel guilty
for every wrong i done to u
which i really dont know
wut u are expecting
from ur position

do i seems guilty
if i laugh for several joke
or should i tend ur emotion
in da cold of living
seems creating inconveniene situasion

fly away is the best choice
since there is no way out
to find solution
in the way should it belong

CIRCUIT DIAGRAMS

February 2nd, 2007

Circuit diagrams and component layouts

Circuit diagrams show the connections as clearly as possible with all wires
drawn neatly as straight lines. The actual layout of the components is usually
quite different from the circuit diagram and this can be confusing for the
beginner. The secret is to concentrate on the connections, not the actual
positions of components.

The circuit diagram and stripboard layout for the
Adjustable Timer project are shown here
so you can see the difference.

A circuit diagram is useful when testing a circuit and for understanding how it works.
This is why the instructions for projects include a circuit diagram as well as the
stripboard or printed circuit board layout which you need to build the circuit.

Examples of circuit symbols

Good and Bad Circuit Diagrams

Drawing circuit diagrams

Drawing circuit diagrams is not difficult but it takes a little practice to draw
neat, clear diagrams. This is a useful skill for science as well as for electronics.
You will certainly need to draw circuit diagrams if you design your own circuits.

Follow these tips for best results:

  • Make sure you use the correct symbol for each component.
  • Draw connecting wires as straight lines (use a ruler).
  • Put a ‘blob’ ()
        at each junction between wires.
  • Label components such as resistors and capacitors with their values.
  • The positive (+) supply should be at the top and the negative (-) supply
        at the bottom. The negative supply is usually labelled 0V, zero volts.
       
    If you are drawing the circuit diagram for science please see the
        section about drawing diagrams the ‘electronics way’.

If the circuit is complex:

  • Try to arrange the diagram so that signals flow from left to right: inputs and
        controls should be on the left, outputs on the right.
  • You may omit the battery or power supply symbols, but you must include (and label)
        the supply lines at the top and bottom.


The same circuit drawn two different ways

Drawing circuit diagrams the ‘electronics way’

Circuit diagrams for electronics are drawn with the positive (+) supply at the top
and the negative (-) supply at the bottom.
This can be helpful in understanding the operation of the circuit because the voltage
decreases as you move down the circuit diagram.

Circuit diagrams for science are traditionally drawn with the battery or
power supply at the top. This is not wrong, but there is usually no advantage in
drawing them this way and I think it is less helpful for understanding the circuit.

10 tanda2 bEsaR kIaMat:~

SEPULUH TANDA-TANDA KIAMAT YANG BESAR

Ertinya:
Daripada Huzaifah bin Asid Al-Ghifari ra. berkata: "Datang kepada kami Rasulullah saw. dan kami pada waktu itu sedang berbincang-bincang. Lalu beliau bersabda: "Apa yang kamu perbincangkan?". Kami menjawab: "Kami sedang berbincang tentang hari qiamat". Lalu Nabi saw. bersabda: "Tidak akan terjadi hari qiamat sehingga kamu melihat sebelumnya sepuluh macam tanda-tandanya". Kemudian beliau menyebutkannya: "Asap, Dajjal, binatang, terbit matahari dari tempat tenggelamnya, turunnya Isa bin Maryam alaihissalam, Ya juj dan Ma’juj, tiga kali gempa bumi, sekali di timur, sekali di barat dan yang ketiga di Semenanjung Arab yang akhir sekali adalah api yang keluar dari arah negeri Yaman yang akan menghalau manusia kepada Padang Mahsyar mereka".

<>

H.R Muslimi

Keterangan
Sepuluh tanda-tanda qiamat yang disebutkan Rasulullah saw. dalam hadis ini adalah tanda-tanda qiamat yang besar-besar, akan terjadi di saat hampir tibanya hari qiamat.

Sepuluh tanda itu ialah:

<

1.
Dukhan (asap) yang akan keluar dan mengakibatkan penyakit yang seperti selsema di kalangan orang-orang yang beriman dan akan mematikan semua orang kafir.

2.
Dajjal yang akan membawa fitnah besar yang akan meragut keimanan, hinggakan ramai orang yang akan terpedaya dengan seruannya.

3.
Binatang besar yang keluar berhampiran Bukit Shafa di Mekah yang akan bercakap bahawa manusia tidak beriman lagi kepada Allah swt.

4.
Matahari akan terbit dari tempat tenggelamnya. Maka pada saat itu Allah swt. tidak lagi menerima iman orang kafir dan tidak menerima taubat daripada orang yang berdosa.

5.
Turunnya Nabi Isa alaihissalam ke permukaan bumi ini. Beliau akan mendukung pemerintahan Imam Mahadi yang berdaulat pada masa itu dan beliau akan mematahkan segala salib yang dibuat oleb orang-orang Kristian dan beliau juga yang akan membunuh Dajjal.

<

6.
Keluarnya bangsa Ya’juj dan Ma’juj yang akan membuat kerosakan dipermukaan bumi ini, iaitu apabila mereka berjaya menghancurkan dinding yang dibuat dari besi bercampur tembaga yang telah didirikan oleh Zul Qarnain bersama dengan pembantu-pembantunya pada zaman dahulu.

<

7.
Gempa bumi di Timur.

8.
Gempa bumi di Barat.

9.
Gempa bumi di Semenanjung Arab.
10.
Api besar yang akan menghalau manusia menuju ke Padang Mahsyar. Api itu akan bermula dari arah negeri Yaman.

Mengikut pendapat Imam Ibnu Hajar al-Asqalani di dalam kitab Fathul Bari beliau mengatakan: Apa yang dapat dirajihkan (pendapat yang terpilih) dari himpunan hadis-hadis Rasulullah Saw. bahawa keluarnya Dajal adalah yang mendahului segala petanda-petanda besar yang mengakibatkan perubahan besar yang berlaku dipermukaan bumi ini. Keadaan itu akan disudahi dengan kematian Nabi Isa alaihissalam (setelah belian turun dari langit). Kemudian terbitnya matahari dari tempat tenggelamnya adalah permulaan tanda-tanda qiamat yang besar yang akan merosakkan sistem alam cakerawala yang mana kejadian ini akan disudahi dengan terjadinya peristiwa qiamat yang dahsyat itu. Barangkali keluarnya binatang yang disebutkan itu adalah terjadi di hari yang matahari pada waktu itu terbit dari tempat tenggelamnya.

(Fainting or syncope) (IPA: /ˈsɪnkəpi/ or /ˈsɪŋkəpi/) is a sudden (and generally momentary) loss of consciousness,
or blacking out, owing to a lack of sufficient blood and oxygen
reaching the brain. The first symptoms a person feels before fainting
are dizziness, a dimming of vision, or brown-out, tinnitus,
and feeling hot. Moments later, the person’s vision turns black and he
or she drops to the floor (or slumps if seated in a chair).

Factors that influence fainting are taking in too little food and fluids, low blood pressure, hypoglycemia, growth spurts,
physical exercise in excess of the energy reserve of the body, and lack
of sleep. Even standing up too quickly or being in too hot a room can
cause fainting. Recommended treatment is to allow the person to lie on
the ground with his or her legs a little elevated. As the dizziness and
the momentary blindness passes, the person may experience visual disturbances in the form of small bright dots (phosphene).
These will also pass within a few minutes. If fainting happens
frequently, or if there is no obvious explanation, it is important to
see a doctor about it.

More serious causes of fainting include cardiac (heart-related) causes such as an abnormal heart rhythm (an arrhythmia),
where the heart beats too slowly, too rapidly or too irregularly to
pump enough blood to the brain. Some arrhythmias can be
life-threatening. Other important cardiac conditions that can manifest
with syncope include subclavian steal syndrome and aortic stenosis.

Fainting can also be due to neurological disorders, stress, side effects of anaesthetics, etc

types

It is convenient to think of three types of fainting, or syncope.
The usual type (1) is benign and is vaso-vagal. Much less common (2) is
a pure cardiac syncope. Finally there is syncope (3) from
vertebro-basilar arterial disease. Epilepsy appearing as syncope is not
considered. (1) The vaso-vagal type can be considered in two forms: a)
Isolated episodes of loss of consciousness, unheralded by any warning
symptoms for more than a few moments. These tend to occur in the
adolescent age group, and may be associated with fasting, exercise,
abdominal straining or circumstances promoting vaso-dilatation (eg
heat, alcohol). The subject is invariably upright. The tilt-table test,
if performed, is generally negative. b) Recurrent syncope with complex
associated symptoms. This is so-called Neurally Mediated Syncope (NMS).
It is associated with any of the following: preceding or succeeding
sleepiness, preceding visual disturbance ("spots before the eyes),
sweating, light-headedness. The subject is usually but not always
upright. A pattern of background factors contributes to the attacks.
There is typically an unsuspected relatively low blood volume, for
instance, from taking a low salt diet in the absence of any
salt-retaining tendency. Heat causes vaso-dilatation and worsens the
effect of the relatively insufficient blood volume. That sets the
scene, but the next stage is the adrenergic response. If there is
underlying fear or anxiety (e.g. social circumstances), or acute fear
(e.g. acute threat, needle phobia), the Vaso-Motor Centre demands an
increased pumping action by the heart (flight or fight response). This
is set in motion via the adrenergic (Sympathetic) outflow from the
brain but the heart is unable to meet requirement because of the low
blood volume, or decreased return of blood to the heart (abdominal
straining). However, the heart’s increased Left Ventricular muscle
activity is recognised by the Vaso-Motor Centre via activity in Vagal
nerve fibres traveling from the heart to the brain. Normally, the Vagal
response would modulate this activity. However, in NMS, the abnormal
response that follows is in the exaggerated strength of the return
vagal flow, actually causing minor further peripheral vaso-dilatation
and slowing the heart decisively - to a point where fainting occurs. In
other words, an adrenalin effect causes an over-compensation by the
Vagus. Interestingly, some people faint lying in a dentist’s chair
after receiving adrenalin in a local anaesthetic, endorsing the
explanation.

The tilt-table test typically evokes the attack.

Much of this pathway was discovered in animal experiments by Bezold
(Vienna) in the 1860s. In animals, it may represent a defence mechanism
when confronted by danger ("playing possum") in which case it is a
reflex which has been carried over into some people.

The mechanism described here suggests that a practical way to
prevent attacks would be, counter-intuitively, to block the adrenergic
signal with a Beta Blocker. But simpler plan is to explain the
mechanism, discuss causes of fear, and optimise salt as well as water
intake.

2) Fainting can also occur if pressure on the carotid artery in the
neck triggers a vagal signal to the Vaso-Motor Centre, reflexly causing
a vagal response to slow the heart. A pure cardiac arrhythmia is a
serious matter that can appear as syncope but this is unusual.

3) Arterial disease in the upper spinal cord, or lower brain, causes
syncope if there is a reduction in blood supply, which may occur with
extending the neck or after drugs to lower blood pressure.

clinical symtoms

If the patient states, "I felt dizzy with blurry vision, muscle
weakness, during the fall I bumped my knee, hit my head and passed
out," then it is not syncope, it is termed pre or near-syncope.

If the patient states, "I felt dizzy, shadows came over my eyes, and
when I woke up I was lying on the floor," then it is diagnosed as
syncope.

Patients who experience syncope episode do not remember falling.

popular culture of "fainTiNg"

Intentional fainting has long been a "fad" amongst young people. It
involves cutting the oxygen supply to the brain for a period of 3-10
seconds causing a syncope. There are two common ways of inducing the
syncope. One of these is also known as the sleeper hold, or rear naked choke. The other technique involves placing the hands on either side of the rib cage before pressing and lifting.

However it is not recommended that either of these ever be used on
anyone as there are known cases of brain damage and even death.

obesity around us!!!

January 31st, 2007

      During the past 20 years, obesity among adults has risen significantly in
      the United States. The latest data from the National Center for Health
      Statistics show that 30 percent of U.S. adults 20 years of age and
      older—over 60 million people—are obese.
      This increase is not limited to adults. The percentage of young people who
      are overweight has more than tripled since 1980. Among children and teens
      aged 6–19 years, 16 percent (over 9 million young people) are considered
      overweight.

      
      

These increasing rates raise concern because of their implications for
      Americans’ health. Being overweight or obese increases the risk of many
      diseases and health conditions, including the following:

  • Hypertension
  • Dyslipidemia (for example, high total cholesterol or high levels of
            triglycerides)
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Coronary heart disease
  • Stroke
  • Gallbladder disease
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Sleep apnea and respiratory problems
  • Some cancers (endometrial, breast, and colon)

Causes and Risk Factors of Obesity

Until
recently, obesity was considered the result of a sedentary lifestyle
and the chronic ingestion of excess calories. This may be the principal
factor for many individuals, but there is evidence of strong genetic,
metabolic, and environmental influences in the development of obesity.
Certain illnesses, such as Cushing’s syndrome or hypothyroidism, and
medications, such as glucocorticoids, can also cause obesity. However,
less than one percent of all obese patients have an identifiable
secondary cause of obesity.

Diagnosis of Obesity

A
physical examination, including a measurement of weight and height, is
usually sufficient to diagnose obesity. A complete medical history,
including age of onset, family history, eating and exercise behavior,
smoking, alcohol use, and previous weight loss experience are all
important.

Your physician may order blood tests, including fasting levels of glucose, cholesterol and triglycerides, to determine whether any obesity-related conditions are present.

Treatment of Obesity

Successful
programs for weight loss reduction and maintenance should be started
and followed under the care of a physician and/or a nutritionist. A
weight-loss program may include:

  • Exercise (the Surgeon General has called for 30 minutes of physical activity on most days of the week)
  • A low-fat, high-complex carbohydrate, high fiber diet
  • Behavior modification to change eating behavior
  • Social support
  • Medications
  • Questions To Ask Your Doctor About Obesity

    I’ve always been overweight. Why should I worry about it now?

    Should I consider taking a medication for my weight condition?

    What effect will continuing to be overweight have on my newly acquired diabetes (if applicable)?

    What types of physical activity would you recommend?

    How can I find the time, social support and motivation to become more physically active?

    Do you recommend a specific diet?

    If so, what kind?

    I’ve lost weight before and regained it. How do I lose weight and keep it off now?

    Should I consider surgery?

    niat dan istqomah

    January 24th, 2007

    niat? satu perkataan yang subjektif secara fizikalnya tetapi memfokus secara dalamannya. niat menginspirasikan kita supaya lebih bersemangat. faktor fundamental yang membezakan niat ialah ketulusan niat itu. niat yang istiqomah akan memberikan suatu sudut yang mengalirkan ketenangan jiwa. dalam situasi tertentu,. setiap orang mempunyai niat tersendiri yang lebih memuncak kepada matlamat. niat yang tidak disertakan bersama istiqomah ataupun berubah2 seperti pembolehubah selalunya mendapatkan output yang terpesong walaupun pada mulanya lurus di paksi horizontal. tanpa niat yang persis, mungkin seseorang itu akan menghadapi pagar halangan yang menhalang kepada mencapai target ciptaannya. konklusinya disini; niat perlu disertai istiqomah yang mantap.  dalam konteks yang mudah, istiqomah bererti perbuatan yang berterusan tanpa condong. dengan kedua2nya TERIKAT RAPI, cabaran dan hanlangan yang merentasi secara serenjang mahupun selari mampu diketepikan. hct@07
