Earth Hour today!

Lets shut down all our technology or at least if must use try minimal your usage on electricity. Use phone or notebook if you need to surf the internet. Stop watching TV, turn of your fan, Air Conditioner, Stereo, washing machine and any appliances that uses high amount of electricity...unless you own a solar powered electric generator.  Its Earth hour today.    Use bicycle, stop the pollution. Beside i've been practicing it every year except using car to work was is unavoidable option in very rainy tropical country.   Today i planned to go out cycling instead having to stuck in the house sticking my head in front of power guzzling appliances.  But i bet not everyone is going for  earth hour completely because that's part of humanity irony against it. People nowadays too dependent electric and fosils a driven technology. Why not once in a while just goi out and experience what mother nature has to offer.  Again i say, Get a Bicycle!.

Another broken sunday!

Never felt so bad  having my Sunday a major drag with pocket to burn later.  Ride in the middle of the jungle miles away from civilization and 'bam!' i got permanently broken drive terrains my mountain bike in the middle of no where. Let see...that was USD$210 shitty Shimano XTR parts gone down the pit this month, rear derailuer, frame drop-out hinges and chains going goodbye.  With almost storm coming in on windy evening i cut the chain short to fit the whole gear into single speed setup so i could continue pedal and a whizz my way miles to the pit stop and drove back home in agony.  Why agony because i expect to spend my budget for computer hardware for my 3D work...mmmmm NVIDIA..... Should have followed my instinct not to ride my MTB yesterday.  On the bright side though i still have my road bike to keep my legs alive this week....i really hate lycra tights.

Notebook lesson

Nowadays most most manufacture especially from branded ones prefer cheap operating cost to manufacture notebook with mass quantity. Compaq, Dell and etc are one of the corporates.  Just look at my lappy above i have to dismantel every month to resolder back the chip on the board due to overheating which its model are known for faulty engineering having defected soldering on Nvidia chip that was installed by their contractor. However their recall only made 5 years after but at limited replacement.   Can't trust any lappy these days.  Research over google every 10 lappy there are 7 bound to malfunction.  Computer makers are very cheap skates recently. Consumer beware!

Cancer Striken

For my family its was a sad moment of disbelief after hearing my mother receive a doctor report confirm my mom diagnosed with cancer below the colon which comes along with a growth within She didn't tell me at what level the cancer at but i have a premonition she's hiding some fact about it. My mother says not to worry so much about her. I can see it in her eyes she was ready to face the uncertainty of her future, her gesture shows she is very much worry about us children especially our youngest ones. Long tiring chemotheraphy and surgery was on her schedule next month and beyond leaving us to planned our duties to take care of everything especially our young ones who are still schooling for the entire months which is ok for us since its part of our family responsibility. Everyday i made my prayer to our god asking for a miracle so that He may cure my mother's cancer illness and hope she live long enough to see the future of his children (us).

Hearing my mother having a cancer doesn't made me feeling grief about it but was at disbelief. That is because it "suddenly" too frequent inflicted my family and our relative which probability by almost 80%.
Since last year and now my sister, few aunts and relative was diagnosed with tumour and cancer and have been through lots of procedure to remove it at early stage. Known as fatal diseases at final state it was a life and death issue which translated to shortened ones life by approx five year if not treated. It made me wonder how our decent clean everyday live can ended up in such health disaster to everyone. It looks like modern day by products human manufacturing have something to do with this. Tumour and Cancer seldom hear back between 70's and the 90's but in year 2000 and beyond health statistic shown there's an increase of Tumour and Cancer patient exponential with the arise of modern day processed products such as food and households item. Work hazard and usage of technology can posed hazard too. After narrowing down common probabilites that inflict my family and relative i hinted it should have been the food we consume everyday.

You don't get much quality food nowadays, foods as mass produced at low cost to gain more profit. Which use cheap ingredients, low cost quality control and lots of shortcuts to get the product done without considering some health factor. This are "Rich" cheap food. In the 90's Fat, Cholesterol and too much sugar kills you, today its those preservative such as Melamine, boric acid, artificial MSG and other artificial ingredients are the ones that kills you with permanent mark to your health. Its was the same ingredients that keep the food looks bulky and keep it last beyond its natural recomended lifeshelf. In the world of profit making is all about put more cost on mass production and cutt less on healthy quality control on foods. I used to work in food industries so i knew much of the stories. Simply said you can't trust any processed food from stores today even the one served from the restaurant. Who knows maybe they used cheap recycled cooking oil or melted plastic to keep your food crunchy. The best practice it to buy fresh raw food, cook it yourself and keep doing some active physical activity and exercise to keep you and your health in shape if want to life a longer life. Food commercialism does kills.
