| Felda Sungai Klah Hotspring a.k.a. Taman Rekreasi Air Panas (TRAP) |
| 2010-01-23 04:02:00 |
I've being to this tourist spot a couple of times, all happened to be just one day trips. As a matter of fact, one whole day is more than enough to enjoy the place, unless you plan to stay and hopefully recharge your spiritual energy by listening to the buzzing of (potentially irritating) night creatures. Count me out.. for now.Entrance fee is MYR10.00 for adult, cheaper price is available for children, disabled and golden citizens. I'd remembered previously the price was much lower, if not mistaken around MYR4.00 instead. Seems like inflation is infact inevitable.Some random pics about this place.Walkway.Trees and plants.SPA canopy.Private pool?Family pool entrance. Very hot water, dare to touch?Map for not losing your direction.can trust these pointers?Official information about TRAP: ...

| Absolute and Relative Performance |
| 2010-01-20 10:09:00 |
It is imperative that any performance measurement has to be done relatively among comparable samples.Let's take a very macro view of this statement, how do we compare economic performance of countries? Malaysia, for example annual GDP growth adjusted by inflation for year 2008 was 4.73% on average and the same measure for year 2009 was -3.77%. Looking at these numbers by their absolute sense only be able to tell you one-sided of the story, the magnitude of change between contiguous time periods. How do you tell whether 4.73% for year 2008 was actually top performing achievement and its fall to -3.77% was in fact within acceptable normal range? The answer to all these questions are not easily obtainable. To compare and interpret the numbers, we must have data of countries of similar charact...

Eddy said: I don't think she will "appears" in ANY banks in near future. Maybe it's time for her to retire with.. well, plenty of "wealth".By ELAINE ANGPETALING JAYA: Alliance Bank Malaysia Bhd group chief executive officer (CEO) Datuk Bridget Lai is not expected to return to the bank, sources and analysts said.“I think I will answer you simply. I do not think it likely that Lai will return,” a source told StarBiz yesterday.Speculation is rife that Lai, who is currently being investigated in the bank’s internal probe on issues which started with renovation in the property department, would not want to continue on as the bank’s CEO after the investigations are over.

| 83-640 TS Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuring |
| 2010-01-11 23:16:00 |
This test is the first virtual lab based certification exam from Microsoft, therefore Nerdy Eddy must go and try it out. That's reason #1. Reason #2 is the demand for me to acquire the proper overall understanding about Active Directory and its configuration thingy and thus to be able to talk to those nasty IT Administrators, especially those bank customers of ours. You might be a vendor like us and if you're dealing with enough customers with relatively large directory-based network infrastructure, you do understand the fact that without a knowledge of the standard operating procedures and configurations (hardening and stuffs) of IT systems, your project might get into troubles, well "preferably" at the end of the testing phase and the start of migration phase. Surprises such as services ...

Eddy said: Head-hunted in the middle of potential scandal? Beat me up please, I just don't believe this crap. Lolx, what's an extremist huh?PETALING JAYA: Alliance Bank group CEO Datuk Bridget Lai (pic) is believed to be head-hunted for top positions in banking and finance.The offers are said to have emerged since last year but Lai’s contract with Alliance had just been approved by Bank Negara for renewal in September; hence, she has not accepted any offer.When contacted, Lai declined to comment. Alliance Financial Group Bhd group chief executive officer Datuk Bridget Lai. Industry players said they were not surprised that Lai would be approached by headhunters as the shortage of seasoned bankers in Asia makes someone like her “very bankable.’’Her 30 years of experience, mostly wit...

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The FBI is investigating a hacker attack on Citigroup Inc. that led to the theft of tens of millions of dollars, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.Citing anonymous government officials, the Journal reported that the hackers were connected to a Russian cyber gang. Two other computer systems, at least one of connected to a U.S. government agency, were also attacked.Citigroup denied the report. "We had no breach of the system and there were no losses, no customer losses, no bank losses," said Joe Petro, managing director of Citigroup's Security and Investigative services. "Any allegation that the FBI is working a case at Citigroup involving tens of millions of losses is just not true."The Journal reported that the attack on Citigroup's Citibank subsidiary was detecte...

A bank customer of us was requesting helps to solve a sudden problem dealing with their IBM DWE server. Apparently from certain date onwards, all the processes executed within the DWE console were failed as shown in the following figure:Interesting because there are few applications running in DWE and some of them already run for more then 2 years without any problems and now all of them failed at once?Looking at the logs, obviously db2cmd.exe is throwing out a return code of 5 with exception code SQL1042C which means:And oh shit, what the hell is the meaning of return code 5?Tried to google, lookup IBM forums, contacted IBM Support and no one can tell me the definition of code 5? The real fun is almost all other DB2/DWE components are running fine. db2cc, db2hc, db2start, db2stop, db2licm...

| Pelikan Warehouse Sales 2009 |
| 2009-12-11 03:38:00 |
Pelikan should definitely send out flyers to all its shareholders about any incoming warehouses. I never aware of such an event until I accidentally saw it on TheStar newspaper yesterday night. I've long wanted to get myself a decent Pelikan pen because my current one keeps failing on me with its loosely aligned cap. Me and my bro reached Puchong around 9am+ then we stopped by at some restaurant to have our breakfast. PappaRich sucks because apparently there's no breakfast set. I need to fork out extra bucks by making each item order one by one. It sucks.We arrived at Pelikan warehouse around 10:30am. They actually used their cafeteria as the venue for this sales. Well, not really as crowded as some of the warehouse sales I been to but still I'm having some hard time try to squeeze myself ...
