Unker suspected got herniated disc

sankai80 — Mon, 25 May 2026 11:12:22 +0800

To all lifters above 40 especially above 50. Go slow. Go light. Unker just got herniated disc. No prior signal, just finished my first set of bent over db reverse fly, then felt the immediate and intense pain at the lower back area. Had to kick back working dumbbells back to the rack as the whole back like stiffen and any bending will result in sharp pain, end of the session immediately. First thought was maybe muscle strain, just ice packed it, maybe didn’t warm the lower back and maybe the pain will go away in hours and at worst after a night sleep. Woke up this morning, checked into reality. I can’t even get up, need to roll by the side to the floor and use squatting stance with my arms using the bed as supporting to lift my self up in pain. Then took my first step, wahlauehhh walking also in pain and slowly until standing also in pain. Basically all my mobility movements are fucked up. Sitting, getting up, bending and etc all fucking hurt. Now I’m off to see doctor and maybe chiropractor. Hope MRI scan needed. Ibuprofen not helping in my case. Be mindful on your weight, form, warming up and etc. This shit happened without warning and in the most unexpected way. Who would have thought a fucking bent over db reverse fly fucked my back up really good.

Today Unker cruising on the NSE on the way to work at 100KMH and then suddenly being overtaken by an underbone bike on the overtaking lane. What surprised unker was the rider was looking at his mobile with one hand holding it whilst another on the throttle handlebar. It wasn’t food rider or Lalamove rider so there weren’t any urgent needs to look at the screen of his mobile. Mind you he wasn’t glancing at it for secs but continuously looking at it as is browsing tinder app. Of course the road ahead was clear but still damn 9 dangerous. Unker done ranting.

Perlis mampu muncul sebagai ‘Dubai Kedua’, titah Raja Perlis

Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin bertitah baginda yakin dan percaya negeri itu mampu berkembang sebagai pusat dagang, pusat inovasi dan pusat pertemuan ekonomi serantau.

KANGAR: Raja Perlis Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin Jamalullail meyakini Perlis mampu muncul sebagai ‘Dubai Kedua’, iaitu pintu gerbang terbuka kepada negara-negara Asean dalam tempoh beberapa tahun akan datang.
Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin bertitah baginda yakin dan percaya negeri itu mampu berkembang sebagai pusat dagang, pusat inovasi dan pusat pertemuan ekonomi serantau, dengan kedudukan strategik Perlis di utara Semenanjung Malaysia yang bersempadan dengan Thailand.

“Saya juga berharap untuk beberapa tahun yang mendatang. Jika Dubai mampu dikenali di persada dunia sebagai pintu gerbang terbuka ke Timur Tengah, maka saya yakin negeri Perlis juga mampu muncul sebagai sebuah “Dubai Kedua”.

“Didukung oleh iltizam kerajaan negeri, Pihak Berkuasa Pelaksanaan Koridor Utara (NCIA), Kuskop (Kementerian Pembangunan Usahawan dan Koperasi) dan kekuatan gerakan koperasi, saya yakin dan percaya Perlis mampu berkembang sebagai pusat dagang, pusat inovasi dan pusat pertemuan ekonomi serantau,” titah baginda.

Baginda bertitah demikian semasa berkenan merasmikan Nat Antarabangsa Angkasa Perlis 2026 di Pasar Terapung Jabatan Pengairan dan Saliran (JPS) di sini malam tadi.

Turut berangkat Raja Muda Perlis Tuanku Syed Faizuddin Putra Jamalullail dan Raja Puan Muda Perlis Tuanku Lailatul Shahreen Akashah Khalil.

Hadir sama Menteri Besar Perlis Abu Bakar Hamzah dan Presiden Angkatan Koperasi Kebangsaan Malaysia Berhad (Angkasa) Abdul Fattah Abdullah.

Sementara itu, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin bertitah penganjuran nat itu bukan sekadar platform wacana dan pertukaran idea, bahkan menampilkan dimensi lebih meluas yang menghimpunkan penyertaan dari Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia dan China.

Raja Perlis bertitah program itu menggambarkan ia bukan sahaja mendapat sambutan di peringkat negeri dan nasional, malah berjaya menarik perhatian serta penyertaan antarabangsa, sekali gus mengangkat Perlis sebagai medan jaringan ekonomi koperasi serantau yang semakin diyakini dan dihormati negara lain.

Thai PM blaming fuel smuggling for shortage

Thai PM blames stockpilers for fuel shortage

Anutin Charnvirakul said illegal fuel stockpiling and cross-border smuggling cost the government US$1.4 billion.

BANGKOK: Thailand’s prime minister slammed on Friday oil traders for “excessive profiteering”, blaming those stockpiling fuel or smuggling it abroad for shortages that have driven prices steadily higher.
“Authorities have found cases of fuel stockpiling and smuggling for sale in neighbouring countries,” Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul said, adding the problem had cost the government 50 billion baht (US$1.4 billion).

“This action (smuggling and stockpiling) amounts to excessive profiteering from rising oil prices during the global energy crisis,” he said, calling it “a major factor behind the nationwide fuel shortages seen in recent weeks”.

Evidence of hoarding and profiteering among large and medium-sized oil traders had been found on land and at sea, he said.

Anutin said some seaborne shipments had been deliberately delayed so fuel would not arrive on schedule, allowing sellers to wait for retail price increases. Other shipments had been diverted for stockpiling and were thought to be destined for neighbouring countries.

More than 57 million litres of fuel were reported missing during sea transportation in southern Thailand, minister of justice Rutthaphon Naowarat said.

The department of special investigation is pursuing the matter as a special case, and investigations are underway, according to the prime minister.

The allegations of stockpiling come amid public outcry over successive fuel price hikes in late March and early April.

Fuel prices in Thailand have reached record highs, with unleaded gasoline at 57.51 baht (US$1.76) per litre and diesel at 47.74 baht (US$1.46).

The war in the Middle East, triggered by US and Israeli strikes on Iran on Feb 28, has caused disruptions to oil and gas supplies and price fluctuations across much of Southeast Asia.

Vietnam also hiked fuel prices again this week, bringing the cost of diesel to 46,200 dong (US$1.80) per litre – up more than 140% since late February.

The price of regular gasoline, meanwhile, was up more than 28% since the start of the war to 25,970 dong (US$1.00) per litre.

Hanoi has dipped into an emergency fuel price stabilisation fund and scrapped environmental taxes to ease pressure on fuel prices.

Chief of S Korea's high-stakes exam quits over 'in

sankai80 — Fri, 12 Dec 2025 13:18:32 +0800

The English section of South Korea's gruelling college entrance exam, or Suneung, is notoriously difficult, with some students comparing it to deciphering an ancient script, and others calling it "insane".

So intense was the criticism around this year's test that the top official in charge of administering it resigned to take responsibility for the "chaos" it caused.

"We sincerely accept the criticism that the difficulty of questions... was inappropriate," said Suneung chief Oh Seung-geol, adding that the test "fell short" despite having gone through several rounds of editing.
Among the most daunting questions are one on Immanuel Kant's philosophy of law and another involving gaming jargon.

The latter, worth three points, asks students to pick where a sentence should fit in a given paragraph.

Here's the sentence in bold, followed by the paragraph:

The difference is that the action in the game world can only be explored through the virtual bodily space of the avatar.

A video game has its own model of reality, internal to itself and separate from the player's external reality, the player's bodily space and the avatar's bodily space.

(1) The avatar's bodily space, the potential actions of the avatar in the game world, is the only way in which the reality of the external reality of the game world can be perceived.

(2) As in the real world, perception requires action.

(3) Players extend their perceptual field into the game, encompassing the available actions of the avatar.

(4) The feedback loop of perception and action that enables you to navigate the world around you is now one step removed: instead of perceiving primarily through interaction of your own body with the external world, you're perceiving the game world through interaction of the avatar.

(5) The entire perceptual system has been extended into the game world.

The correct answer is here.

12 tolled concessions ran at a loss in 2024

sankai80 — Wed, 26 Nov 2025 14:35:33 +0800

KUALA LUMPUR: Twelve toll concessionaires nationwide recorded losses in 2024, the Dewan Rakyat was told today.

Deputy Works Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Maslan said any proposal to build new highways must be assessed carefully, as the government would eventually bear the cost of losses when taking over the concession.

Although many people propose new highways, the reality is that 12 toll concessions recorded losses based on their financial reports for 2024.

"In conclusion, anyone proposing new highways must calculate traffic and financial projections carefully.

If traffic volume is insufficient, revenue will not cover operating costs, and eventually, the government will have to bear the losses when taking over the concession," he said in response to a supplementary question from Zahir Hassan (PH–Wangsa Maju) on the performance of toll concessions.

The 12 concessions include the Kuala Lumpur–Putrajaya Expressway (MEX), the Kuala Lumpur–Karak Highway (KLK) and the East Coast Expressway Phase 1 (LPT1), the Stormwater Management And Road Tunnel (SMART), the Kemuning–Shah Alam Highway (LKSA), the Sungai Besi–Ulu Klang Elevated Expressway (SUKE) and the Damansara–Shah Alam Elevated Expressway (DASH).

Others include the Senai–Desaru Expressway (SDE), the South Klang Valley Expressway (SKVE), the Setiawangsa–Pantai Expressway (SPE), the Kajang–Seremban Highway (LEKAS), the West Coast Expressway (WCE) and the Butterworth Outer Ring Road (LLB).

Well I guess all these while we made judgement on toll operators without knowingly their cost and usage. Not all are doing so well like NSE, LDP and etc. I must say those listed out really not necessary and have been pushed into our mouths to accept like DASH.

Kerajaan dicadang wujud bengkel motosikal di lebuh raya

Ramai penunggang berdepan kesukaran apabila motosikal rosak tiba-tiba dan terpaksa mendapatkan bantuan di luar lebuh

PETALING JAYA: Kerajaan dicadang mewujudkan bengkel dan perkhidmatan baik pulih di setiap plaza tol atau kawasan rehat dan rawat (R&R) bagi membantu pengguna jalan raya khususnya penunggang yang sering berdepan kerosakan motosikal ketika berada di lebuh raya.
Afnan Hamimi Taib Azamudden (PN-Alor Setar) berkata, ramai penunggang menghadapi kesukaran apabila motosikal rosak secara tiba-tiba dalam perjalanan dan terpaksa mendapatkan bantuan di luar lebuh raya yang mengambil masa lama selain boleh membahayakan keselamatan.

“Sebab kita dapati banyak kenderaan-kenderaan yang rosak terutama motosikal yang sukar untuk dibaiki ketika ia rosak tengah jalan. Sebelum kenderaan itu masuk lebuh raya, motor (motosikal) itu elok tetapi sudah (masuk) lebuh raya motosikal itu rosak. Pergi cari (bengkel) dekat luar itu agak jauh.

Dalam pada itu, mengenai laluan ‘smart lane’ yang menukar lorong kecemasan kepada laluan kenderaan pada waktu puncak, Afnan berkata ia menimbulkan kekeliruan serta risiko kemalangan kepada penunggang motosikal.

Katanya, penunggang motosikal lazimnya menggunakan lorong kiri dan kecemasan untuk bergerak ketika kesesakan berlaku.

“Apabila ‘smart lane’ diaktifkan, laluan kecemasan tak boleh digunakan. Penunggang terpaksa menyelit antara kenderaan yang padat, meningkatkan risiko kemalangan,” katanya.

Beliau turut menegur keadaan lorong kecemasan yang sempit, berdebu, licin dan dipenuhi serpihan tayar serta batu, selain cat garisan putih yang licin ketika hujan.

Afnan mengingatkan kerajaan, penunggang motosikal merupakan jumlah pengguna terbesar di lebuh raya, membayar cukai jalan seperti pengguna lain dan keselamatan mereka perlu diberikan perhatian serius dalam perancangan infrastruktur negara.

Trump, Sisi to chair Gaza peace summit on Monday

Over 20 leaders will join the summit, which focuses on ending the Gaza conflict and achieving regional peace and stability.

CAIRO: US President Donald Trump and his Egyptian counterpart Abdel Fattah al-Sisi will on Monday chair a Gaza peace summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, the Egyptian presidency said on Saturday.
The meeting will take place on Monday afternoon “with the participation of leaders from more than twenty countries”, it said.

It will aim “to end the war in the Gaza Strip, enhance efforts to achieve peace and stability in the Middle East, and usher in a new era of regional security and stability”.

UN secretary-general Antonio Guterres said he will attend, as will Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer, his Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni and Pedro Sanchez of Spain. French President Emmanuel Macron has also confirmed his attendance.

There was no immediate word about whether Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would be in Sharm el-Sheikh, while Hamas has said it will not take part.

Guess Malaysia aint with the big boys despite our countless "solidariti". Actions through engagement and "force" to both fighting parties by key mediators parties made ceasefire deal happen not countless "solidariti" and boycott. Guess we will never learn, we prefer bising on the surface than substance. Key lesson, being emotional, complaining and bising2 get you no result. Worst being exploited by irresponsible parties, either political or NGO. I am waiting for these parties to call on the continuance of their self-interest agenda until from the river to the sea is established.
