Usapang Aso

"Alam mo Dadi, nakakatuwa Lance, napakalambing"

"Dadi! Si Lance binilhan namin ng bagong laruan... gustong gusto nya"

"Dadalhin namin si Lance sa doktor kasi matam;ay at ayaw kumain"

Sa halos araw araw na na pakikipagusap ko sa aking asawa sa pamamagitan ng internet chatting, di mabilang na topics at isyu sa pamilya, kamag-anak, kaibigan at kaaway; ang kaswal na napaguusapan namin, mula sa usaping pera, sex at relihiyon, walang direksyong usapan kung ano ang mabuksang topic at saan mapadpad ang usapan mabawasan lang ang lungkot at homesick.

Ang hindi nawawala sa aming usapan ang bagong kapamilya namin na si Lance, isang pure breed poodle na iniregalo ko sa debut ng anak kong si Geeka. Sya ang bagong karagdagan sa aming pamilya na nagdulot ng kasiyahan sa aking mag-ina mula ng dumating si Lance sa amin nuong Oktubre 2008.

Malaking pagbabago sa buhay namin ang pagdating ni Lance sa aming tahanan, nalilibang ang mag-ina ko sa bawat ikinikilos ng aso, sa kanyang mga paglalambing at sa mga ipinakikitang bagong tricks st paglalaro sa loob ng bahay. Maituturing ng may hatid na therapeutic healing ang aso sa mga taong kasama nya sa bahay, ito ay nakakabawas ng stress at tension, at nakakapagdulot ng kakaibang kasiyahan sa tao. Hindi kayang tumbasan ng pera ang kasiyahang naidulot nito sa aking mag-ina, kaya't si Lance ay itinuring na naming kapamilya at kapuso.

Subalit sa pagkupkop ng aso o ng anumang "animal pet" sa loob tahanan ay nangangailangan ng wastong kaalaman at paghahanda sa isang malaking responsibilidad sa pag-aalaga ng napiling hayup. Nararapat ding alamin kung ano ang gusto ninyong alagaang hayop na naayon sa sukat o laki ng inyong tahanan at dapat ding bigyan konsiderasyon ang kalusugan ng bawat miyembro ng pamilya sa pagpili ng uri ng hayop na aalagaan.

Missing Pictures

My daughter send me an SMS message informing me that the pictures which I have attached on my Jan. 16 blog "Monster Machine" are missing and empty on her screen monitor. I wonder what happened to the 2 pictures which I have uploaded.

Mabuti na lang napuna ng anak kong si Geeka ang pagkawala ng mga pictures, hindi ko rin inaasahan na nawawala iyon sa nasabing blog. And now I am pleased to show you once again ang kina-iingitang desktop computer sa Doha na naglalaman ng Intel Pentium Processor Core 2 Quad CPU Q9300 @ 2.50GHz, Mobo Intel Corp DP35DP, 4.0Gig RAM, nVidia GeForce 8500 GT 1Gig RAM, 1TB + 250GB+ Internal HDDs which are encased in a transparent CPU case with all the (non-cancerous) ultraviolet lights (LoL). Detailed specs are mentioned in my earlier blog "Monster Machine".

WINDOWS 7 RUNS IN FUJITSU SIEMENS

Windows 7 works like a charm on its second day since installation on my wife's Fujitsu Siemens' ESPRIMO Mobile U9400 UMTS powered by Intel's Core 2 Duo Processor 965gm Intel Chipset (2.1 GHz) with 2.0 Gig Ram. Its pre-issued drivers for Vista works perfectly on the new found Windows 7.

I noticed that the new operating system is energy efficient, it provides a rich set of energy saving features. Through reduced background activity by minimizing the number of services running at startup, the number of disk operations, the reading and writing to and from the the registry, and the indexing of files, Windows 7 increase the performance of the operating system but also to consume much less energy.

It is a very impressive performance of Windows 7 on its Beta issue which will surely put it ahead of Windows Vista SP1. Why don't you give it a try.

ITS A RAINY DAY...ALLELUYAH

Morning picture of Doha's dark sky and

drizzling rain from taken my window

A very lazy morning today, the temperature is 13 degrees celcius, and its raining all over Doha, the best time for lazying in bed. Just close your eyes and feel the drizzling rain hit the window pane and daydream, thanks God it's Friday, a great weekend. I got so many subjects to share with you today like the Windows 7 that I have installed on my wife's laptop, ohhh itis so perfect, I could say that Windows 7 is best to run at your laptop, you'll agree with me once you observed its efficiency and reliability.

I am glad that Enor did not bring her laptop with on her holiday in Manila. she got a Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo Mobility 9400, Core 2 Duo 2.0 GHz with 2 Gig Ram, and believe me it really rocks. Its much better than my desktop. I installed all her required applications, and I never sensed any problem at all.

Try it out on your laptops and feel the difference, for the meantime let me go back to my bed and enjoy the rest of my Friday off.

MICROSOFT GLITCH NO MORE

After posting my yesterday's blog entitled MICROSOFT GLITCH, I cannot help my curiosity to do my research on this subject.

And with a few click on the Google search, I was able to find anwswers to my curiosity as I come across ask-leo.com website or you might want to click the link http://ask-leo.com/why_cant_i_create_a_folder_named_con_and_other_crazy_facts.html

In reference to my yesterday's blog -

MAGIC #1, that you cannot name a folder "CON", it is in fact perfectly true that you cannot create a folder named "CON", nor can you rename an existing folder to "CON". However, there is no mystery surrounding this restriction whatsoever. The "team" at Microsoft, and a great many others besides, know perfectly well why you cannot name a folder "CON". "CON" and a number of other character strings are in fact reserved names that go back to the days of DOS and cannot be used to name folders or files. Other reserved names are:
PRN
AUX
NUL
LPT1
COM1
Potential drive letter - A: to Z:
A number of others

If you try to name a folder using one of these reserved names, the name will automatically revert to the default, generally "New Folder".

See link http://www.hoax-slayer.com/con-folder-name.shtml for complete explanation.

MAGIC #2 BUSH HID THE FACTS, It's a bug in some versions of notepad that is nothing more than misinterpreting an ANSI text file as Unicode. While "Bush hid the facts" is popular among conspiracy theorists and internet meme generators, there are several different word patterns that can generate the same problem.

As I said, it's a known bug in Notepad. It appears to have been fixed in recent versions and updates of both XP and Vista.

It's also documented more fully here on Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_hid_the_facts.

MAGIC #3, =Rand (200 99) Enter, The rand() function is in Word specifically to automatically generate text. In some versions it produces the string "The quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" (every character in the standard English alphabet). Apparently, it may generate other text in other versions.

It's intentional, as documented here in Microsoft's knowledgebase.

The first number, by the way, is the number of paragraphs of automatic text to generate, and the second is the number of lines in each paragraph.

For even more fun, try the =lorem() function; same idea, different text.

"None of these are 'magic' at all. They're simply intended behaviors or explainable bugs."

Now these clears the mysteries of MICROSOFT GLITCH, which are not magic at all. Have you come across a similar or new omputer glitch? Let me know.

HAPI BERDEY MARENG MARG

Margie (extreme right) with Ely, Manong Edles, Neneng
and Michele (sitting) at the kitchen.

It was Mareng Margie's birthday yesterday, April 19, and at the same time it was their Wedding Anniversary (Pareng Dennis and Mareng Margie) too. Sa kabila ng malamig na klima kagabi, hindi ito naging sagabal sa aming pagdalo sa birthday and anniversary celebration ng mag-asawa.

And as expected, nanduon ang mga close friends nya and the familiar faces, mga kasamahan nya sa U.S. Base and the tropang Nichols. At syempre, the irresistable foods prepared and cooked by Mareng Margie herself - lumpiang shanghai, broasted chicken, carbonara, pansit bihon, puto, veggies, fish fillet in sweet and sour sauce, chicken afritada, and fruit salad, syempre di mawawala ang berdey at anniversary cakes. Sobrang kabusugan ko talaga kagabi and my first party attended this 2009.

It was a great evening bonding with the Docto family and friends kaya lang we can't stay late, (strict ang parents ko LOL) may pasok pa bukas and have to leave by 10.30 pm. maraming salamat Mare, may take out pa. Mabuhay kayong mag-asawa and God bless your family.

Windows 7, Ang Bagong O.S.

Sa wakas, naisa-publiko na rin ang bagong Operating System ng Microsoft Corp. na pinangalanan Windows 7 Beta na maaaring mai-download mula sa website ng Microsoft. Ang Windows 7 ay tugon ng Microsoft sa hininging pagbabago ng mga tumatangkilik sa Windows, ang naghahangad ng mas mabilis at reliable na O.S. na wala sa Windows Vista.

Dahil sa nais kong makita ang mga ipinangakong pagbabago ng Microsoft, kailangan kong subukan ang nasabing Windows 7 sa aking computer. matapos kong mai-download ang ISO copy ng Windows 7, ito ay isinalin ko sa DVD at nagsimula na ang installation process sa aking computer. Kapuna-puna na sa proseso pa lamang ng pag-install ng software ay mas mabilis kung ikukumpara sa Windows Vista.

Matapos ang installation, napuna ko sa aking Device Manager na may dalawang devices na hindi na-identify ng Windows, ito ay ang PCI Simple Communication Cotroller at ang SM Bus Controller. Sinubukan kong hanapin ang tamang driver sa 2 nasabing device sa internet ay nanatiling bigo ako, ako ay umaasa na hindi ito magsisilbing sagabal sa pagpapatuloy ko ng aking patuloy na paggamit ng Windows 7.

Sa aking pananaw, ang Windows 7 ay improved version ng Windows Vista, halos lahat ng basic components ng Vista ay makikita sa Windows 7. Subalit sa patuloy kong paggamit ay napuna ko na mas mabilis na pertformance nito mula sa pangkalahatan, masasabi ko rin na mas stable at reliable kumpara sa Vista.

Karagdagan dito, ang kanyang graphical interface ay mas rich at mas pinaganda na mapupuna sa kanyang taskbar, mas malalaking previews at mas may control sa kanyang mga windows environments.

Pinagpatuloy ko ang pag-install ng mga softwares na kadalasan kong ginagamit tulad ng Esset Nod 32 AntiVirus, Microsoft Office 2007, Yahoo Messenger 9, Adobe Suite, Google Earth Pro, Nero at Chikka at masasabi kong wala akong naging suliranin sa kanilang operations sa lumipas na 3 araw na paggamit ko.

Sa pagkakataong ito, masasabi ko na wala pa aong nakikitang problema maliban sa nabanggit kong drivers na hindi na-identify ng O.S. subalit wala rin naman naging sagabal dito sa kabuuang paggamit ko ng Windows 7. At patuloy rin akong nakakatanggap ng updates mula sa Microsoft.

Kung kayo ay kasalukuyang gumagamit ng Windows Vista at hindi nasisiyahan sa kanyang performance, subukan ninyo ang Windows 7, ito ang tugon sa inyong problema. Maari ninyong subukan ang beta release ng Windows 7 o hintayin ang official launching nito maaaring sa last quarter ng kasalukuyang taon o sa simula ng 2010. may usap usapan na sa opisyal paglulunsad ng Windows 7 ay maaring isabay na rin ng Microsoft ang paglulunsand ang kanilang bagong produkto ng Microsoft Office 14 sa publiko.

Monster Machine

Halos 3 buwan pa lang aking bagong assembled na computer na maaaring tawaging monster machine ng mga nakakaunawa sa computer technology. Ang kanyang CPU ay Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 2.5GHz, Intel Corp MoBo DP35DP, 4 GB RAM, 1TB HDD, 1GB nVidia GeForce 8500 GT Video Card + 250GB Sata HDD.

Ito ay lalong pinatingkad sa loob kanyang transparent case na may Gigabyte CPU LED Cooler Fan, 3 Laser-LED Fans, 2 Sound Activated Ultra Violet Cold Cathode Tubes at LED Laser Lights.

Bagama't ang aking CPU ay nakadesign para sa 5.1 Speaker system, nagkasya na lamang ako sa 2.1 JBL Creature II, ang aking mouse ay Wireless/Rechargeable Logitec MX-Laser 1000, Creative Gamers Keyboard Fatal1ty (illuminated by eluminx), at ang aing monitor ay 19" LCD LG monitor L1960TQ.

Sa kasalukuyan, 3 Operating system ang naka-install sa aking computer, ang Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Vista at ang Windows 7.

Ito ang palipasan ko ng oras, kung saan ako malayang nakikipagugnayan sa aking pamilya sa Pilipinas at mga kaibigan sa iba't ibang lugar sa daigdig sa pamamagitan ng chats at emails, paglalaro ng mga paborito kong pc games at paglikha ng blogs.

Ito ang nagsisilbing isang center point sa aking sala, kung saan nakakatawag ng pansin ang computer ko sa aking mga bisita sa bahay. Sa pagkakataong ito hahayaan ko kayong maingit sa aking computer.
