Free Stuff - Cafe World GIDs

Tired of asking from neighbours but they won't approve or you just don't have enough neighbours to ask around? I've had those problems but now my problems are over thanks to cafe gid (gift IDs), a glitch I learnt on the net.






Now, I'm only left with two goals to finish which is the astounding expansion goal 2 and the sushi goal 7. Don't fret even if you only have one neighbour because it will still work.






Just visit the page I have on Cafe World GIDs above or click here LynnasHusna - Cafe World GIDs to learn how to take advantage of this glitch. You can ask absolutely anything as long as it has an ASK button in your goal, even foods too! Goodluck completing your Goals!

Video Stuff - Toddlers and Tiaras Parody

There is this new craze about Toddlers and Tiaras going on at channel TLC. However, there's a debate going on how kids should be kids and how much make-up they have on. Regarding that, during an interview at Jimmy Kimmel Live, Tom shares his experience being a "pageant dad" and how he prepares his "daughter", Sophie for the show. Have a good laugh!

Video Stuff - How it feels to have stroke

I stumbled across a video about how this doctor, a neuroanatomist, Jill Bolte Taylor had an opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: One morning, she realized she was having a massive stroke. As it happened -- as she felt her brain functions slip away one by one, speech, movement, understanding -- she studied and remembered every moment. This is a powerful story about how our brains define us and connect us to the world and to one another.

Maybe we'll start to appreciate life more.

Motivation Stuff - Parable of the Pencil

Here are some inspiring words to get your spirits high. Enjoy! ^_^



The Pencil Maker took the pencil aside, just before putting him into the box. “There are 5 things you need to know,” he told the pencil, “Before I send you out into the world. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best pencil you can be.

One: “You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in someone’s hand.”

Two: “You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, but you’ll need it to become a better pencil.”

Three: “You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make.”

Four: “The most important part of you will always be what's inside.”

And Five: “On every surface you are used on, you must leave your mark. No matter what the condition, you must continue to write.”

The pencil understood and promised to remember, and went into the box with purpose in its heart.

*******************************************************************************************************************

Now replacing the place of the pencil with you. Always remember them and never forget, and you will become the best person you can be.

One: “You will be able to do many great things, but only if you allow yourself to be held in God’s hand. And allow other human beings to access you for the many gifts you possess.”

Two: “You will experience a painful sharpening from time to time, by going through various problems in life, but you’ll need it to become a stronger person.”

Three: “You will be able to correct any mistakes you might make.”

Four: “The most important part of you will always be what’s on the inside.”

And Five: “On every surface you walk through, you must leave your mark. No matter what the situation, you must continue to do your duties.”

Allow this parable on the pencil to encourage you to know that you are a special person and only you can fulfill the purpose to which you were born to accomplish. Never allow yourself to get discouraged and think that your life is insignificantand cannot make a change.

Video Stuff - The Art of Illusion

I always wondered how people in Hollywood made their movies so realistic that sometimes its impossible they shoot all their stories in the stage such as Titanic and so on. Whereas in Malaysia, we're more focused on love stories that's not that difficult to make, plus we don't have sets like in the States. Now I know how they made it. I've been fooled all this time. They even make every snowflake just to make it look real. Watch and learn.

Video Stuff - DIY Can Organizer

My mum was looking for a practical rack to design for her kitchen so I searched the net and I found a lot of pictures for storage ideas. The one my mum loved was the one below because it looks so neat.








I also stumbled upon this awesome pantry idea that works which is a can storage bin / can rotating rack / can organizer. You can purchase them here at CanOrganizer which is made out of cardboard and you are required to assemble them yourself since they come in flat packs. On the other hand, if you find them quite expensive you can make it yourself. The great idea of DIY is that you can customize it according to your own shelf and the cans that you buy. Below is an example of the pantry that uses the DIY can organizer; the origin of the DIY idea, The Pantry Panel. The best thing about this is that its based on the "first in first out" (FIFO) basis. So you will never have to worry about cans that are bought earlier but stocked at the back of the shelf making it hard to reach and before you know it, the food is expired.






The original idea came from the grandpa of the blogger The Pantry Panel but since there were some problems for them to post the idea on blogspot, the girls from Food Storage Made Easy was kind enough to post them on their website. You can get the so-called blueprint of the idea here and get the detailed instruction and step-by-step pictures here. So how does the outcome looks like? Enjoy the video below.

Video Stuff - Angry Birds Live

T-Mobile decided to promote its phones by teaming up with the ultra-popular Angry Birds game. The promotion was done by setting up a real life game of it where it starts on a phone would be translated to a giant-sized version of the game.


Below is the behind the scenes video of how they came up with the idea and how the made it possible. Really cool! They even hired a 12-piece brass band orchestra to play the remix of the Angry Birds music while the crowds enjoy the life-sized game. Not for getting the sound effects the Angry Birds make and also the grunts of pigs. Genius! Enjoy!

UNHIDE Hidden Files due to Virus

I have been putting up with my pendrive that is infected with virus for a long time. It usually happens when I want to print at my university's library. As a result, all of the files that I once used to print especially word documents got infected.






At first I panicked because all of my hard effort was wasted since viruses are known to corrupt or destroy your files and folders. After scanning my pendrive using a normal anti-virus I managed to get rid of the virus. However, the files were still hidden. I did my homework and was determined to know how to solve this problem and with in just a few minutes I managed to do so. Yeay~!! No need for any software that will only clutter your computer. Just simple command.






This is how you do it.


First, for XP, you need to go to any windows explorer (which simply means the window you use to open any files). As shown below, I opened My Computer.



1. Click on Tools and then Folder Options.
2. In Folder Options, click on the View tab.
3. Check the Show hidden files and folders button.
4. Untick/uncheck the Hide protected operating system files (Recommended) button.
Last of all click Apply. Remember to close the Windows Explorer too before follwing the next step below.






Next what you need to do is open command which can be easily accessed at Start then go to Run and in the box type cmd then press Enter. On default, the files displayed is on C: so it is simply a matter of changing the location of your file. In my case, my pendrive located in F: is infected. So below (in red boxes) are the commands that I typed according to sequence.





1. Type the location of your file/folder followed by collon (:). Eg: f: Then press Enter
2. Type exactly as what I've shown here with the small stars, dots and spaces: attrib -s -r -h *.* followed by Enter.

If there are any malicious EXE files those are now visible so if unnecessary delete them too.

If you access is denied due to AUTORUN.INF, follow the third step below:
3. Standby one hand on your flash drive when you are about to press Enter.
Type del autorun.inf (Remember! On pressing Enter, remove your flash drive instantly.) and press Enter.






VOILA~!! That's about it. Then you can stick your flash drive back in and presume your work as normal. If you can't see any changes, that is because you didn't close your Windows Explorer when I told you to. It will just work out fine if you close it then open it back again. Good luck trying guys :)

Looking for new fonts

I just love to look at adverts. Although I am not into designing, I find myself criticising on ads or packaging that does not appeal to my interest. One of the main factor wold have to be the fonts used.









Erk..where am I heading off to? Actually I wanted to tell you guys about this particular website that I love to go fishing for fonts. Yup, fonts. I started to like the different designs of fonts when I wanted to use them in my power point presentation. I hoped that by using different fonts it would've standed out a little better than all the rest and it did work...for those who have an eye for design though...






So, here's the link. Btw, as I'm blogging this, the webpage can't seem to load but I will let you guys now when their okay.






Below are some of the names of fonts that I like:
-Bleeding Cowboys
-ABite
-28 Days Later
-Riesling
-Top Secret
-Velocity
-Samarkan
-Capture It
-Champagne & Limousines






I haven't had the time yet to show you what it looks like because I don't have much time this morning to do so but I will update this post to let you guys see the sample of the fonts above and I will also post a tutorial on how to download and install the fonts to get it working for you. Just hope that the site will load so that I can show you how *fingers crossed* :)

Open in New Tab

I have always liked Mozilla for it's great "Open in New Tab" function because I can always come back to the original source to read for later if the link that I'm going to open is not what I had in mind/wanted and simply close the opened new tab without having to go back one page. However, my laptop's right click button is not working that good. I had to press harder to get it to work and no, I don't like to use the mouse too because I have to find the right surface for it to work.






So what's the solution to the problem? Simply hold down the "Ctrl" button whilst clicking on the link and voila! You've opened the link in a new tab.


Hold down "Ctrl" + click on desired link





Maybe you guys all ready now about this but I just found out about it. -_-'






But I know these functions below by heart and I know that you guys do too ;)




Free Online Speed Reading Software (Spreed)

Another "free" entry for you guys out there~






Sometimes I get frustated when I can't quite master the art of speed reading because my eyes can only scan through the words in an article but isn't able to pick up the words or digest what the article is all about. Well now I've found a solution to the answer. I stumbled upon this website when I was reading one of my all time favourite IsuHangat (I would categorize it under Gossip Blog even though it's not). It's an online speed reading software that is FREE to use.







The link is here. They provide you the basic version where you can just simply copy-paste an article be it online journals, notes or even e-books that you would like to finish quickly.







Just click on the pictures to enlarge.




All you need to do is just:
1- copy-paste the article in the space provided.
2- click on spreed, and then it will take you to the next page







A- Basicly tells you how many words you're reading and at what speed you're reading it.
B- Is the short cut keyboard function that has been set.

So if you're ready to spreed just click on:
1- To play
but if it's going a little bit too fast, just click on:
2- To edit the settings such as font size, font colour, background colour and words per minute.








Under the settings function there's also the advanced settings where you can choose to:
1- slow down on big chunks of word (i.e: encyclopedia)
2- start new chunks at end of sentences and paragraphs
3- slight pause at end of sentences or paragrpahs
4- skip over stopwords which add no additional meaning (i.e: an, the)





By the way, make sure you scan through the artice first to make sure that you're reading the right material before you spreed it so that you won't waste time figuring what the article is all about. Remember, spreeding is used to get the "meat" out of the article.


Happy Spreeding peeps :)
