Potong elaun menteri tidak rasional

PULAU PINANG 8 Jun - Menteri Perdagangan Dalam Negeri dan Hal Ehwal Pengguna, Datuk Shahrir Abdul Samad menyifatkan cadangan untuk memotong elaun yang dinikmati oleh menteri adalah tidak rasional.

Sepatutnya, kata beliau, cadangan untuk menjimatkan wang kerajaan perlu difokuskan kepada aspek rasional dan bukan disebabkan oleh perasaan marah kepada menteri.

''Kalau potong elaun menteri-menteri, tidak sampai RM1 bilion pun. Kalau elaun menteri sampai berbilion, saya rasa ada kesan.

''Jangan buat sesuatu kerana kita marah. Kita fokus pada yang rasional. Kalau buat cadangan yang rasional pun, baru ada kesannya tapi bukan sebab rasa geram dengan menteri," katanya ketika ditemui di sini hari ini.

Beliau mengulas cadangan Dewan Pemuda Pas supaya elaun yang dinikmati menteri dipotong sebagai salah satu langkah penjimatan wang kerajaan.

Ketuanya, Salahuddin Ayub berkata, berikutan peningkatan harga barang keperluan kini, langkah berjimat cermat sepatutnya tidak hanya diamalkan rakyat tetapi turut diikuti pemimpin kerajaan.

Aspek penjimatan wang kerajaan, kata Shahrir, telah dimulakan oleh menteri-menteri sebelum ini lagi malah beliau sendiri telah mengarahkan supaya perbelanjaan untuk acara-acara yang dianjurkan oleh kementeriannya dikurangkan.

''Sebelum ini pun, kalau majlis sendiri (kementeriannya) kita tidak perlu bagi cenderamata kepada menteri. Buat sederhana sahaja selain mengurangkan seminar dan perjalanan dalam usaha berjimat cermat," katanya.

Bit n Byte

ho ho

today i went to my in-law house and stumble on Harian Metro, Wednesday, 4th June 2008.
what caught my attention is the 'soal jawab IT' section.

(click on the Q for link to harian metro)

Saya ingin bertanya me ngenai maksud sebenar isti lah perkomputeran bit dan bait serta apakah perbeza annya.

the answer given: Komputer menggunakan format binari atau berasas kan dua nombor. Semuanya menggunakan digit binari sama ada 0 atau 1.

Satu bait mengandungi 1024 bit. Biasanya bait digu nakan untuk mengukur ka pasiti storan, misalnya cake ra keras atau saiz memori RAM.

Bit pula biasa digunakan untuk mengukur kadar pe mindahan, misalnya kelaju an bagi talian ADSL – 1 me gabit sesaat (1mbps)



i was like. hmmmm. since when 1 byte = 1024bit??????
its basic engineering. come on engineers out there. what is 1 byte???
you can wiki it if you like.

the simple answer is



1 byte = 8 bit
i think the writer got confused with this

1kilobyte = 1024bit 

or by IEEE definition, 1kikibyte = 1024bit

open Windows Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment Variables > System Variables

Ke Guitar Collection, TTDI

aktiviti hari sabtu lepas.

instead of window shopping at the usual place, we change the venue this time to TTDI. he he.
first place we stop was Guitar Collection.

hummm... not quite customer friendly. org dalam kedai tu buat muka bodoooo je. and when agus pick up some guitar, some of them buat muka kerek. feels not so comfortable dgn atmosphere kat dalam kedai tuh.

Guitar yg caught my eyes bila masuk...

harga? mmm.. rm1900 kot.
rupa-rupanya agus dah lama usha guitar tu. he even tested the guitar but not in this shop, he tested it at guitar collection sunway pyramid. macam mana nak test guitar kat kedai TTDI, pick up guitar pon dah buat muka kerek.

once masuk kereta... agus pour out what happens when he asked the salesmen about guitar...

'aaaa.. tu ada bang.. gitar kapok harga rm90 je'

muahahahahha.... insulting gila. kui kui kui

takde nak tanya dah kita ni nak cari gitar jenis apa. main hentam assume org nak gitar kapok. he he

nak kata dia pakai t-shirt koyak rabak yang macam selalu dipakai tu, rasanya pakaian elok je hari tu. he he

actually, tak yah la eh beli gitar karen lagi...dah ada kat rumah sebijik. OK lagi yang kat rumah. yang KO nyer AMP tuh. haaa... kot ye nak beli baik beli AMP yang bagus sikit. takde lah memekak sangat ngan bunyi noise yang menyakitkan telinga tuh.

tak pon. beli gitar kapok yang rm90. lagi jimat. bleh pakai rm1000 tu buat extend our kitchen cabinet :P

FLOODING in level 3!!!



something surprising happen today. our house is flooding! well i did foreseen it to happen sooner or later. its just that so shocking seeing this once we come home.

its not flooding up to waist level. thankfully. only about 1 bucket of water. he he.
but what freaked me out is that we forgot to pull of the electric plug this morning (things that we normally do). so while screaming at the kids, i tip toed to the ON plug and switch it off. then proceed to clearing all the power extension on the floor and moved the sofa.


moping and clearing the water out

penolong2 saya kepenatan :D

what actually happens is that there was some very heavy rain this afternoon. the drainage system could not cope with the heavy downpour plus drainage from all 26th floor. alas.. for sure there was some fountain at our balcony (from the drainage). its normally happens like that during heavy rain, and my daughters normally will quickly closed the sliding door and watch scarily at the 'fountain'. and i will quickly shift any electrical outlet away from the sliding door in case flooding happen. though it never flood before.

its just that today nobody is around. last time its happened to our dear neighbour :(.

terus hilang mood nak memasak malam ni. dah penat mengemop lantai. sib baik cik abang beli KFC :D
