H1N1 Experience ...
The sender of the e-mail wrote: .....
High risk infection to person yg smooking, has atshma, children, pregnant woman
Beginner stage
Batuk, selsema, demam, sakit tekak, bila terbesin bunyi tak kuat...
Second Stage
Susah bernafas, simtom macam asthma but not asthma, at this stage if you touch the person, or breath in the same room 80% boleh kena...masa ni kena kuarantin...at hospital. Masalahnya sekarang dah ramai yg kena. hospital tak cukup katil & bilik kuarantin...Bila u pengsan macam nak mati baru dia org admitted.macam kes adik I.
Critical
Lung infection. Bila X ray we can see the virus covered the lung. Like my brother case. Very scary bila tengok x ray tu. At this stage u need oksigen with highest level, Strongest antivral..very high drug. At least 7 days oksigen kena bagi. % to recover depend to age, imune badan u. That's why kalau baby atau budak2 susah nak kata...normally die. My brother hari ni genap 8 hari..still need oksigen. Kesian dia. Masa tahap critical tu tercungap2 dia bernafas, sampai menangis..Sampai satu tahap dia berguling atas simen sbb dah tak tahan...sampai dia give up ..sampai dia blh cakap lebih baik Allah ambik nyawa dia...Itu lelaki tu..imagine kalau pompuan atau budak2. We all cuma blh tengok dia dari cermin...tak blh masuk dlm bilik kuarantin...Dr & nurse aje boleh masuh...siap pakai baju plastik. To support him, what we did bagi sms, bagi dia alquran biar dia baca so that dia tenang, bagi tasbih biar dia zikir ingat Allah & bagi Air yasin...Alhamdulillah pastu dia ok sikit.Ada hikmahnya...All the family member unite to support my brother fighting the virus.
Masalahnya hospital swasta tak terima H1N1 case, sekarang ni semua depend hospital kerajaan yg most of the doctors still young . The oldest dr in my brother ward was 28 years. All the Otai dah pergi private. Lepas tu plak this is the first time to treat H1N1 patient. At the same time dr bz with other case as well...1 doktor 5 patient...kat gov hospital...kesian dr2 tu...berhempas pulas nak selamatkan patient. I appreciate them, mmg very appreciate dia org jaga adik i dgn baik sekali..So far hospital Ampang is the best goverment hospital yg i jumpa..very efficient.Very quick action ..Even senior dia org dah pergi private & they don't have much experience , dia org tetap work hard give the best treatment to the patients..sampai tak balik rumah...tidor kat hospital.
Rasa nak peluk & cium dia org sebab selamatkan adik I...Thanks to Allah
Lina,
Nak dpt pandangan since u dh ada pengalaman. Apa symptom virus ni? Melalui pembacaan dan rakaman berita, seolah2 tiada symptom yg khusus terutama demam. Demam x teruk pun bole dp jangkitan. Boleh share info tak? Pengalaman family berhadapan ngan virus ini. J
.....
Reply from Lina
Take care & be careful with H1N1. Virus tu very strong...sape kena...memang suffer nak recover...No vaksin..cuma ada antiviral & our mental warrior to fight them. Very genius virus..Can hide in our body...difficult to detect. Only can detect thru swap which the cost is 1K above. Unable detected in blood as well. When they start action...Can kill the person if the body imune does not strong. For those have baby atau anak2, U & ur family do not go to crowded place, better wear mask when u outside from home. The vaksin will come to Msia in Nov-Dec. So far yg I nampak..hanya lelaki dewasa can fight the virus...woman might be 70% , children most probably will die.
Take care You & Your Family

Misteri bau aneh di kawasan rumahku terjawab ...
Entah macam mana aku ke luar ke porch kereta. Cuba menjenguk jenguk bawah kereta isteri ku. Gagal tiada apa yg mencurigakan. Longkang ku survey namun takdak hapa pun. Aku tengok jiran sebelah tgh membasuh kereta pun buat dek je. Mungkin hidung dia tersumbat rasanye. Heran ibnu ajaiban. Manala datang bau sebegini rupa. Aku masuk ke ruang tamu terus layan kartun bersama anak ku imaan. Dok tak sampai 5 minit tak leh tahan. Misi mencari bermula lagi. Adoiiii! Tensennn!
Sekali lagi aku keluar ke porch kereta. Kali ini jauh lagi ku melangkah sampai ke luar gate depan. Jiran dah abeh basuh keter, dia dah masuk dalam umah. Memang idung tersumbat, langsung takdak effect. Bila saja aku bukak gate, ...
"..TUUU DIAAAAA!!"
".. TAKDAK AKHLAK PUNYA HAIYAWAAANNN!!!" ..
Ada 5 butir bom atom nuclear korea utara bertaburan depan umah aku!! MAK AIII!! .. Ada lagi puluhan rumah kat sini depan rumah aku juga dia tabur..! TAK GUNA PUNYA ANJINGGG!! .. Baunya Ya Rabbiiii! .. Kencing manis boleh dibuatnye. Dah la kawan karib depa buat hal sampai selsema satu dunia. Ini geng dia plak carik pasal dengan aku! Ceittt!!
Dengan berbekalkan dendam kesumat, aku terus mencari apparatus yang sesuai untuk buat operasi segera. Memang mencabar kejantanan. Adeh. Kayu sebatang + Penyedok sampah. Bayangkan bagaimana keperitan yang aku terpaksa lalui. Aku terpaksa menguis bom-bom durjana itu masuk ke dlm penyedok dengan berhati hati takut berkecai dan bersepah merata. Setelah berjaya dengan memakai kain pelikat dan t-shirt hitam kegemaran aku terus membawa object merbahaya ke longkang monsoon drain besar 50 meter dari kediamanku. Lemparan ku mengenai sasaran ke dalam longkang yg mengalir airnya. Dengan bangganya aku melihat arus longkang yang deras itu membawa bom-bom atom ke muara, aku harap hidupan air tawar tidak terjejas nanti.
Aku berharap satu hari nanti dapat aku tangkap pesalah yang tiada akhlak itu dan membawanya ke muka pengadilan. Ciss!!

Numbers are rising, ... keep counting.
(Source :http://www.upi.com/Health_News/2009/06/23/WHO-says-swine-flu-death-toll-at-231/UPI-25401245813265/ )
Wow! people are dying because of some virus attack on entire human population. The world keep counting on the numbers. Measures have been taken worldwide in every countries. This is serious. Fear is all over. Good luck to us mankind.
Well, where is the count for those who have died in a war? I guess hundred of thousands have died during the attack on Palestine for years, attack on Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia and many parts of the world since then. It was total elimination of human life made by human themselves. Yet nobody cares until it was too late too count. At the end no count, no nothing. Rough figures? May be. But the thing is nobody care. If 231 death is frightening enough and the world is doing what ever they can to prevent more deaths then what about hundreds of thousands if not millions? Its insane...
Anyway, just a thought. Keep counting.

Imaan's First Olympic Attempt
My heart was pumping like hell watching my daughter received the baton from her friend to start her running down to the finish line. She began with a slow pace but steady run, made a 2 point 1 turn at a check point then a huge sprint to the finish line. Glorious moment for me as a father and mama imaan as personal trainer and coach. Well done imaan. You make mama and papa proud.
Haha! That was a bit exaggerating. It was School Sports Day. Imaan did win a medal. It was bronze. It was mistakenly handed to her on the prize giving ceremony. Hahaha! Imaan and her RED team actually lost, they came fourth out of four teams. Oh dear me! To see her running i knew that i was watching a girl with no athletic build-up running on that track more like dancing to me. On that day Imaan ran graciously on that rubber track holding a sponge that was supposed to be used for soaking the water from a bucket. Instead imaan soaked no water and fill the glass bottle with 'air'. Haha!!
Mama was shouting like a mad woman instructing her daughter to use various techniques to fill that stupid bottle with water from the sponge. Imaan did not take any notice at all. She just finished the race and nothing went inside that glass bottle. She ran back to the starting line dancing like a princess instead. She was busy fixing her hair rather than focusing on finishing the race. God help us! Hahahah!!
From that moment on we knew she does not possess any athletic skills. Haha. But she is our princess that is for sure!!
Well done my lovely princess! Do better next year!
From Papa Imaan. Cheers.

Kesan Kegawatan Ekonomi Pertama Yang Ku Alami!
Namun dengan tidak semena-mena aku telah sipi-sipi terkesan dengan kegawatan yang menimpa ini. Adakah aku dibuang kerja? Oh tidak. Ya Allah jangan lah jadi begitu ya. Adakah aku tak cukup makan? Oh aku hari-hari aku ditimpa kekenyangan yang melampau. Adakah anak bini kelaparan. Oh sekali-sekali tidak. Hanya isteri ku tercinta yang tak mahu makan. Diet agaknya. So apakah sebenarnya yang gawat buat diri ku?.
Takda pun. Sikit-sikit terkesan dengan harga minyak je. Yang lain alhamdulillah setakat ini.
Cuma yang aku ingin kasi tahu dekat sini ialah aku telah hampir-hampir berjumpa dengan orang yang telah dilanda kegawatan dan aku nyaris memukulnya dengan kayu golf ku. Agak agaknya dia mengalami masalah kewangan dan sumber pencarian telah tiada lagi. Mungkin dia seorang yang terdesak ketika itu. Mungkin dia seorang businessman yang telah pun bankrap. Mungkin juga bos dia tidak membayar gajinya. Apa pun andaianku, sesungguhnya dia lah manusia yang bergelar pencuri. Dia cuba masuk kerumah ku dua malam lepas melalui atap rumah kira-kira pada pukul 4.30 pagi ketika aku dan ahli keluarga ku sedang tidur nyenyak.
Suasana menjadi kompius apabila jiran sebelah ku menelifon handphone isteri ku di pagi buta. Jiran tu pompuan. Seorang amoi tinggal dengan akaknya yang juga amoi. Kakaknya tiada dirumah kerana outstation agaknya. Kami dikejutkan dengan deringan handphone dan car alarm berbunyi dengan kuatnya. Aku meluru ke pintu hadapan. Jiran ku sudah kat luar memegang torchlight sambil panik dia berkata-kata "Aiyyaa.. you tatak denga ka itu olang ada atas bumbung! Ada penculi oo!. Aku bergegas mencari apa yang patut, kayu golf ku menjadi mangsa. Iron 9!! Kebetulan semua tidur di tingkat bawah jadi agak sedikit gelap ditingkat satu. Wadus sungguh menggigil badan ku menolak pintu bilik di atas. Dengan berbekalkan doa dan kayu golf 'Iron 9' aku memberanikan diri menerjah pintu bilik air master bedroom ala-ala "american gangsters" heronya russell crowe. Namun apa yang ku jumpa hanyalah bayang-bayang orang memegang kayu golf seperti ala-ala macam aku. Oh rupa-rupanya aku nampak diri ku sendiri dalam cermin bilik air. Terdetik dalam hatiku, macho juga mamat ni.
Mungkin dia sudah lari. Beberapa minit kemudian, polis datang dengan 4 buah kereta peronda! Waja 1.6 enjin campro baru. Siap pumpgun bagai. Mereka memeriksa seluruh rumah aku dan jiran aku tadi. Gagal. Dia sudah menghilangkan diri agaknya. Terdapat kesan-kesan retakan pada siling bumbung. Ada juga retakan yang polis sendiri buat hasil jolokan-jolokan pumpgun pada siling rumah jiranku.
Begitulah kesudahannya. Pencurinya tak juga ditemui.!
Conclusion nye, memang real kesan ekonomi terhadap kehidupan kita. Kita mungkin tidak mengenali sipencuri itu, namun aku yakin dia seorang manusia biasa yang terdesak sehingga sanggup masuk ikut atap pulak tu. Manusia akan melakukan apa sahaja ketika terdesak. Tinggi risiko yang dihadapinya. Berkemungkinan dia menemui labah-labah, lipan, cicak dan sebagainya atau jatuh tergolek dlm longkang belakang rumah ku. Namun itulah kehidupan. Aku tidak ingin menilai perbuatannya. Allah saja yang tahu! Barangkali kesempitan hidup memaksa dia berbuat begitu. Ini adalah salah satu kesan apabila sifat dunia hari ini yang semakin menekan melahirkan satu keadaan dimana kebatilan mengatasi segalanya. Kepada sang pencuri aku berharap agar kamu mengetahui apa yang kamu lakukan. Adililah diri kamu.!! Tapi kalau lah engkau datang lagi, nescaya dengan beg-beg golf akan ku baling nanti! Wallahualam.

The Reds completed a double over Chelsea on Sunday for the first time in almost 20 years. With Manchester United dispatched at Anfield earlier in the season, and credible draws gained at Villa Park and the Emirates, Benitez has yet to taste defeat by a title rival this term. The Spaniard said: "We knew this was a game we had to win. With Manchester United beating Everton on Saturday the gap was five points and we just had to take three points. "Now every single game is important, but especially against teams who are close to us at the top of the table. "It gives us more confidence. It was also important to end the run of draws we have had. If you are talking about winning the title, every single point is important and drawing games always costs you two points. "Now we are happy, the confidence is high and we must keep winning. But even though we have beaten Chelsea, we must win the next one as well, and keep going from there. "What is important though is that we have not lost this season to any of the teams who are at the top with us. That is very important. "That is the key point If you want to be contenders and want to be closer to the title." (Benitez)

Having not been involved in Sunday's dramatic victory over Chelsea at Anfield, Keane travelled down to London on Monday morning after the Reds granted him permission to speak to Spurs officials. Once a fee was agreed between the two clubs ahead of the 5pm closure of the transfer window, it was then up to the player himself to pass a medical and agree personal terms with Spurs before the deal could be officially completed. Confirmation of this came just after 5.30pm when Tottenham Hotspur announced the transfer was a done deal. Speaking to the official Tottenham Hotspur website, Keane said: "It was a difficult decision to make to leave Tottenham in the summer. It proved not to be the right move for me. I know some Spurs fans will feel I let them down by leaving but I can assure them I shall be giving my all for this Club. This Club has terrific fans and I want to repay them for all their support. We've got to get on and fight our way up that league table."

A Song For Gaza by Michael Heart
WE WILL NOT GO DOWN (Song for Gaza)
(Composed by Michael Heart)
Copyright 2009
A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they’re dead or alive
They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight
Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who’s wrong or right
But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze
We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Lecturers All Stars vs The Rest of the World
Dalam 5 perlawanan sengit Lecturers AllStars bertembung dengan pasukan pasukan yang mantap dari seluruh pelusuk dunia. Namun tentangan sengit tetap diberikan walaupun bergelar pasukan 'underdog'. Pasukan musuh kadang-kadang terpaku dengan aksi hebat pemain allstars.
Penyerang allstars Jessie berjaya memikat hati penonton dengan aksi kungfu kick angin yg sememangnya berniat untuk merembat bola dengan deras tetapi malangnya tidak kena pula. Jessie terpusing kepeningan bingung dengan apa yang terjadi.
Gaya si Shakey apa kurangnya apabila beliau menunjukkan skill skill yg bermutu tinggi 'out of this world' dengan menyepak atau tersepak kaki kaki penyerang musuh. Nasib baik beliau tidak memakai senjata rahsia beliau iaitu boot askar yang dipakainya tahun lalu.
Hanzler seorang lagi penyerang berbisa all stars memaparkan larian larian yang dalam hati beliau terasa laju sungguh namun jika diperhatikan diluar gelanggang seperti kura kura berlari dengan slow motionnya. Rembatan beliau yang kencang ternyata tidak dapat diselamatkan oleh keeper keeper pihak musuh oleh kerana kelajuan rembatannya yang amat dashat sekali tetapi apakan daya, selalunya tersasar dari target.
Khulio, pula menggunakan kuasa aura jeritan ala remaja wanita mengelirukan pihak musuh yg sememangnya keliru. Aksi climax khulio ternyata berkesan apabila beliau menggunakan kuasa terbang tergolek bak gajah jatuh terguling dan tidak bangun bangun lagi.
Ajey the old timer ternyata sukar ditandingi. Aksi gaya 'fast feet' beliau memukau musuh dan agak mengelirukan. Kaki beliau bergerak pantas bak pantasnya kilat tapi bola tak juga bergerak kerana sepakan beliau jarang mengena sebenarnya. Namun kehadiran beliau sebagai 'old timer' dlm skuad 5 bintang ini memberi makna yang cukup besar dan memotivasikan pemain-pemain allstars yang lain.
Ayah sihakim 'The Irish Guy' dengan status import paling murah dibeli oleh kelab ini berjaya menunjukkan prestasi cemerlang dengan beraksi dlm pelbagai position. Ternyata cubaan beliau sebagai goalie tidaklah menjadi seperti yang diharapkan. Byk butir gol juga terlepas begitu sahaja. Apabila di temuramah oleh pihak media alasan yang diberikan ialah beliau tidak dapat menyesuaikan diri dgn cuaca malaysia yang agak panas berbanding dengan Irish weather yg sememangnya nyaman dan sejuk.
McDee, kali ini pula agak mengecewakan kerana beliau sedang bergelut dengan masalah disiplin. McDee tiba lewat ke tempat perlawanan. Khabarnya beliau tertinggal flight dari London dan terpaksa berkejar ke tempat kejadian dengan menaiki submarine. McDee menyerlah dalam perlawanan pertama beliau dengan beberapa 'save' yang mengancam serta terbangan terbangan yang tak sepatutnya dilakukan kerana bola sudah out pun sebenarnya. Mungkin kerana dia pentingkan kualiti gaya dari segalanya.
Setelah berakhirnya 5 perlawanan Team Allstars terpaksa akur. Mereka gagal ke peringkat seterusnya. Walaubagaimana pun team ini akan muncul lagi diperlawanan peringkat antarabangsa. Menurut sumber-sumber yang boleh dipercayai. Lecturers All Stars akan mengorak langkah membeli jersi baru sebagai persiapan menghadapi perlawanan diperingkat Asia nanti. Kepulangan team Lecturers All Stars amatlah dinantikan oleh peminat-peminat sukan bola sepak tanahair. Tunggu sahaja perkembangan terbaru mereka.

Interesting Article No. 1
WHY ARE JEWS SO POWERFUL?
There are only 14 million Jews in the world; seven million in the Americas , five million in Asia, two million in Europe and 100,000 in Africa . For every single Jew in the world there are 100 Muslims. Yet, Jews are more than a hundred times more powerful than all the Muslims put together. Ever wondered why?
Jesus of Nazareth was Jewish. Albert Einstein, the most influential scientist of all time and TIME magazine's 'Person of the Century', was a Jew. Sigmund Freud -- id, ego, superego -- the father of psychoanalysis was a Jew. So were Paul Samuelson and Milton Friedman.
Here are a few other Jews whose intellectual output has enriched the whole humanity: Benjamin Rubin gave humanity the vaccinating needle. Jonas Salk developed the first polio vaccine. Alert Sabin developed the improved live polio vaccine. Gertrude Elion gave us a leukaemia fighting drug. Baruch Blumberg developed the vaccination for Hepatitis B. Paul Ehrlich discovered a treatment for syphilis (a sexually transmitted disease). Elie Metchnikoff won a Nobel Prize in infectious diseases.
Bernard Katz won a Nobel Prize in neuromuscular transmission. Andrew Schally won a Nobel in endocrinology (disorders of the endocrine system; diabetes, hyperthyroidism). Aaron Beck founded Cognitive Therapy (psychotherapy to treat mental disorders, depression and phobias). Gregory Pincus developed the first oral contraceptive pill. George Wald won a Nobel for furthering our understanding of the human eye. Stanley Cohen won a Nobel in embryology (study of embryos and their development). Willem Kolff came up with the kidney dialysis machine.
Over the past 105 years, 14 million Jews have won 15-dozen Nobel Prizes while only three Nobel Prizes have been won by 1.4 billion Muslims (other than Peace Prizes).
Why are Jews so powerful? Stanley Mezor invented the first micro-processing chip. Leo Szilard developed the first nuclear chain reactor. Peter Schultz, optical fibre cable; Charles Adler, traffic lights; Benno Strauss, Stainless steel; Isador Kisee, sound movies; Emile Berliner, telephone microphone and Charles Ginsburg, videotape recorder.
Famous financiers in the business world who belong to Jewish faith include Ralph Lauren (Polo), Levis Strauss (Levi's Jeans), Howard Schultz (Starbuck's), Sergey Brin (Google), Michael Dell (Dell Computers), Larry Ellison (Oracle), Donna Karan (DKNY), Irv Robbins (Baskins & Robbins) and Bill Rosenberg (Dunkin Donuts).
Richard Levin, President of Yale University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger (American secretary of state), Alan Greenspan (fed chairman under Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush), Joseph Lieberman, Maxim Litvinov (USSR foreign Minister), David Marshal (Singapore's first chief minister), Issac Isaacs (governor-general of Australia), Benjamin Disraeli (British statesman and author), Yevgeny Primakov (Russian PM), Barry Gold water, Jorge Sampaio (president of Portugal), John Deutsch (CIA director), Herb Gray (Canadian deputy PM), Pierre Mendes (French PM), Michael Howard (British home secretary) and Robert Rubin (American secretary of treasury).
In the media, famous Jews include Wolf Blitzer ( CNN ), Barbara Walters (ABC News), Eugene Meyer ( Washington Post ), Henry Grunwald (editor-in-chief Time), Katherine Graham (publisher of The Washington Post ), Joseph Lelyyeld (Executive editor, The New York Times), and Max Frankel (New York Times).
At the Olympics, Mark Spitz set a record of sorts by wining seven gold medals. Lenny Krayzelburg is a three-time Olympic gold medalist. Spitz, Krayzelburg and Boris Becker are all Jewish.
Did you know that Harrison Ford, George Burns, Tony Curtis, Charles Bronson, Sandra Bullock, Billy Crystal, Paul Newman, Peter Sellers, Dustin Hoffman, Michael Douglas, Ben Kingsley, Kirk Douglas, Cary Grant, William Shatner, Jerry Lewis and Peter Falk are all Jewish? As a matter of fact, Hollywood itself was founded by a Jew. Among directors and producers, Steven Spielberg, Mel Brooks, Oliver Stone, Aaron Spelling (Beverly Hills 90210), Neil Simon (The Odd Couple), Andrew Vaina (Rambo 1/2/3), Michael Man (Starsky and Hutch), Milos Forman (One flew over the Cuckoo's Nest), Douglas Fairbanks (The thief of Baghdad) and Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) are all Jewish.
To be certain, Washington is the capital that matters and in Washington the lobby that matters is The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC. Washington knows that if PM Ehud Olmert were to discover that the earth is flat, AIPAC will make the 109th Congress pass a resolution congratulating Olmert on his discovery.
William James Sidis, with an IQ of 250-300, is the brightest human who ever existed. Guess what faith did he belong to?
So, why are Jews so powerful? Answer: Education.

Goodbye 2008, Welcome 2009!
'Man's life is brief. If one compares man to the vast universe in which he lives, he only figures as drifiting lonely speck whose span of life is a mere infinitesimal fraction in eternity'.
What we need is a perfect and universal exemplar who could place in our hands a guide to the practical life, so that we human may reach our destination safely. This exemplar did come to the world in person. Our prophet Muhammad, on whom be peace and blessings of Allah.
Lets us remind ourself as the past is gone forever and today is all that we have. Happy new year! Cheers.
