What a night it has been.

We lost. They were the better team, good job Barca. Good bye CR7.

I had Advertising presentation at 10am that day, and we only got started like, 9:15am or something, at the Mezanine floor. It wasn’t 100% great, but we met like.. 80% of the requirements, good enough for a pass, possibly a Credit.

Slept like a pig til 8:30pm and went for gym. The mamak at Carrefour had  a blackout whilst having 20-30 customers. It was interesting to note their “crisis management” and I learnt a thing or two about management.

Tomorrow is bowling day. Also it is Networking Fundamentals assignment due date. Gotta put the pieces together like I always do, add salt and pepper and package it up in a nice envelope. Presentation, and first impressions are super important, so gotta put in more effort on that.

My Chinese Name is Khor Hock Khoon. In Mandarin, its Fu Kun. In Hokkien its Hock Khoon. In Kantonese its Fook Kin. In Angmoh, its Foo Goon. In Arabic, its Fuuuh Hooon.

The first character means: tax; give; endow; army; diffuse
The second character means: descendant; elder brother

So, either I’m:

- Army’s descendent / elder brother

- I deffuse my descendants / elder brother

- I TAX them (?)

- I give them (?)

I think I need to ask you Sifu Cina (yes Yap and Wilson and Darrel, I’m referring to you) to give me a sound and logical explanation.

This weekend I’ll be attending a Students Leadership Summit at Pan Pacific KLIA. Dress code is extremely formal, so I hope I don’t disregard and disrespect any protocol. Deep in my heart I wanna dress up as a Sheikh and a white-on-white robe complete with headgear. What do you think?

I flopped quads. Too bad I had 2000 chips left. Should have reloaded.

ATTN: Sir/Madam

I am Dr. Patrick Zuma, a senior staff of African Development Bank of South Africa {ADB}. I have an urgent and very confidential business proposal for you. An American Gold consultant/contractor with the South African Solid Gold Corporation, Mr. W. Ali. Bryant made a numbered time (Fixed) Deposit for twelve calendar months, valued at (Fourteen Million Five Hundred Thousand U.S. dollars) in my branch. Upon maturity, I sent a routine notification to his forwarding address but got no reply. After a month, we sent a reminder and finally we discovered from his contract employers, the South African Solid Gold Corporation that Mr. Bryant died in a plane crash in Alaska Airlines Flight 261 On further investigation, I found out that he died without making a WILL and all attempts to trace his next of kin were fruitless.

I therefore made further investigation and discovered that Mr. W Ali did not declare any next of kin or relations in all his official documents, including his Bank Deposit paperwork in my Bank. This sum of US$14,500,000.00 is still sitting in our Bank and the interest is being rolled over with the principal sum at the end of each year. No one will ever come forward to claim it. According to Laws of Republic OF SOUTH AFRICA, at the expiration of 7 (Seven) years, the money will revert to the ownership of the South African Government if nobody applies to claim the fund. Consequently, my proposal is that I will like you as a foreigner to stand in as the next of kin / business associates to Mr. A. Bryant so that the fruits of this old man’s labour will not get into the hands of some corrupt government officials. This is simple, I will like you to provide immediately your full names and address so that the attorney will prepare the necessary documents and affidavits that will put you in place as the next of kin. We shall employ the services of an attorney for drafting and notarization of the WILL and to obtain the necessary documents and letter of probate/administration in your favor for the transfer.

A bank account in any part of the world that you will provide will then facilitate the transfer of this money to you as the beneficiary/next of kin. The money will be paid into your account for us to share in the ratio of 70% for me and 30% for you. There is no risk at all as all the paperwork for this transaction will be done by the attorney and my position as a prominent senior official of ADB guarantees the successful execution and immediate conclusion of this transaction. If you are interested, please reply immediately via the private email address and telephone number above. Upon your response, I shall then provide you with more details and relevant documents that will help you understand the transaction. Please send me your confidential telephone and fax numbers for easy communication. Please observe utmost confidentiality, and be rest assured that this transaction would be most profitable for both of us because I shall require your assistance to invest my share in your country.

Awaiting your urgent reply.

You can contact me at all times.

Best Regards

DR. PATRICK ZUMA

P1 Wimax, is it REALLY 42 times faster than dialup?

Ok, as we know, dialup is 56kbit/s, that is theoretically 8KB/s maximum. But lets put it at a real world 6KB/s performance. How does P1 WiMax stack up against good ol’ dialup!

Test A: Loading Google

Google is about 15KBytes of data. Simple maths would stipulate dial up can download it in under 3 seconds. Can P1 do it in 0.07seconds? Even to ping to google (malaysia) it would take about 0.07 seconds already, thats excluding downloading anything at all. I think we’re looking closer to 1.5 seconds. In which case, P1 is only 2 times faster than Dialup.

Test B: Loading CNN.com

CNN do not have local servers, but MIGHT have mirrors in Hong Kong. But lets say we’re connect to their server in the United States. And the site is 100 KB worth of images and media.

Dialup would take 17 seconds. Can P1 load it in 0.4 seconds as claimed by their brochure? Again, ping to USA would take 0.2 seconds, just to “find” the server.

Test C: MSN test

To send a message to a friend via MSN, it takes dialup exactly 1 second from pressing enter to appearing on a friend’s PC. Can P1 wimax make it 0.023 seconds? Faster than the speed of thought?

Test D: The 100 MB test

Downloading a 100MB file from a fast server. Ok, here, P1 might excel. My calculations show dialup will take about 5 hours. If P1 Wimax is able to deliver 2.4mbit full speed then it will only take 7 minutes. And yes, that makes it 42 times faster than dialup.

Ok, the speed tests are estimates but it does give a good idea on how fast the actual performance gains you will see.

In summary, P1 is not lying. They’re bloody fast.

But what does the number mean to you? Well, the above will really explain the TRUE picture.

On another note, I am designing and maintaining www.petroleo-services.com .. too bad my energi.my domain is not used. Any takers?
