kardock — Thu, 23 Jan 2014 02:53:50 +0800

Hi,
I believe my ps3 bluray lens is spoilt and need to be replace. Does anybody know where i can get it done in one or two days in penang because i'm going over there this weekend.

One more thing, can anyone recommend any shop or place i can buy ps4 in penang?

Will be in penang from 25 jan to 27 jan. From where i am from, it takes a week or two to replace ps3 bluray bcoz they need to send it to kl. and ps4 is a bit expensive here.

Thanks for your reply.

Opening up a private clinic

kardock — Tue, 17 Dec 2013 11:13:44 +0800

Hi,

I'm in the process of opening up a private clinic with my partner. She is the doctor and i will handle all the managerial stuffs (Staffing, payroll, local authorities, and all other things) because she don't want to think about all that. All she know, is checking up the patient and get the salary + director's allowance. And i'm not the doctor.

It's not really complicated but the application is a bit time consuming for me. I know it is quite a challenge nowadays to run a private clinic since our strongest competitor is KLINIK 1MALAYSIA where u pay only RM 2 and u get all the treatment and medication.

Among the services we will offer is ultrasound scanning for maternity, ECG, family planning, paediatrics and all other standard services. Would really appreciate if some of u guys can share the experience of running a private clinic, or what do u expect in clinics nowadays. I mean, with the technology and environment we have today, the needs and expectation for private clinic must be different, yes?

Thank you so much!

What u do when friend ask u to borrow money?

kardock — Thu, 24 Oct 2013 16:20:10 +0800

What's your opinion on this situation?

u bumped into your long lost friend, who u used to be quite close before. then you start to exchange contact. the next day he call you to meet up and have a drink with him. after awhile, he started to get to the point which is, want to borrow some money. the reason? his family member need medical treatment/ahlong is looking for him/he need to bail someone from jail/his business is going into bankruptcy and many other reasons. but, his story is not convincing enough but u dont have proof to say that he is lying.

it happens to me quite a few times. if i give, he will come back asking for more with all the sad stories he can create. if i dont give at the first place, how do i know whether its true or not? u're not going to do background checking when u meet up with long lost friend right? from what i observe, most of them have problem with drugs. it's a headache when he keep on nagging and contacting u. what i'm afraid of, he know where i live, the place i work, my family and all.

what would u do or say?

APPLE TV 3rd-gen replacement

kardock — Wed, 17 Apr 2013 19:10:44 +0800

Hi,

I've bought Apple TV last year from MacCity, One Utama. From the date of purchase, not even once have I managed to watch any movies from it because of its wi-fi connectivity issues (connection keep dropping). So, today i just read in a blog http://www.idownloadblog.com/2013/04/15/ap...cement-program/ and mine is affected.

However, i've lost the receipt of my purchase from MacCity. Is there any way or place that i can send my unit for a replacement? I didnt live in KL, so its not easy to just go to the shop and ask for a replacement. If i call MacCity, i believe they will say no straight away.

Please advise the best way i can do to get my unit replaced. Thanks!

Weight loss progress

kardock — Wed, 19 Dec 2012 17:41:56 +0800

Hi all,

I would really appreciate if u guys can give opinion on my weight loss program and its progress at the moment.

I've been going to the gym for 3 weeks now. For 5 times a week
(30 minute cardio, 3-4 weightlifting exercise pattern focusing on each muscle i.e chest, back,bicep tricep)

and starting from day 1 I already take
Lipo6 black (2 morning before breakfast, 2 afternoon before lunch)
Glucosamine Jointflex (1 before breakfast)
Vitamin E 400iuc (1 before breakfast)
Omega-3 Fish Oil (1 before breakfast)
Nutrex's Muscle Infusion protein (1 scoop before breakfast, 1 scoop after training)

My breakfast usually 2 half boiled egg, lunch usually meehon soup or tomyam soup or chicken soup (no rice), and no dinner sometimes just snacks before 7pm
Only take rice on Friday which is my rest day, and play badminton on Tuesday (my rest day also).

My previous weight is 125.5kg, after doing this program consistently for 3 weeks, my current weight is 120kg-121kg . Is this normal? Because i was aiming for 7kg-9kg weight loss in 3 weeks. After 3 week i'll be doing circuit training + drop set.

Please advise if u think there is anything i can do to boost my weight loss. Thank you.

Logitech Pure-Fi Anywhere 2

kardock — Sat, 02 Apr 2011 00:23:15 +0800

I got my Logitech Pure-Fi Anywhere 2 about a year ago with no problem at all. Now, the adapter to recharge the battery is not working anymore. I accidentally spilled water onto that adapter. The dock still working with the battery, but I cannot recharge it right now. I've tried using normal adapter from other brand (which u can modify the voltage and all), but it's not working.

Do any of u guys know what I can do? Is there any replacement adapter I can buy? Or maybe some other brand I can use to charge it?

Training, seminars or talk

kardock — Sun, 10 Oct 2010 11:34:55 +0800

I believe learning is ongoing process, which will never end. By attending courses, seminars or training, it would be a good investment for human capital. My point is, where do i get information about training, seminars, courses or whatever that can improve my knowledge and skills.. I mean, it's quite expensive la but I'm interested to join, because never had a chance before. can anyone suggest ? Mainly for business, sales, management, etc. motivational pun ok la.

edit: yes, i do google first. i just wanna share, just in case any of u got suggestion for a website or whatever lah.

Trading in Construction Materials

kardock — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 00:28:47 +0800

hi,
i just got involve in construction business, as an assistant to my friend (he's the owner/client/developer). i got zero knowledge about constructions before this. now, i'm starting to see the light and start to see the money in it. as i was saying earlier, i don't have knowledge in construction (piling, M&E, structure, engineering, blablabla) but i do have lots of interest and a little experience in business.

so, i was thinking of opening up a small trading company for construction materials such as woods, timber, plywood, sands and cement. i mean, i'm not the producer or manufacturer. i don't think it won't involve quite a sum of money for a kickstart. i'm aiming for small projects only and try to avoid credit terms at this earlier stages.

can anyone give me some insight in this kind of business? i seems to gain network with contractors, manufacturer, sawmill, and the authorities of town planning. so, it's a waste not to take this opportunity. what say u?

Lose hope in loosing weight

kardock — Tue, 21 Jul 2009 02:40:01 +0800

hi everyone,

two and a half years ago, my weight is 130kg. my body has no shape or curves at all. i'm all fat. after that, i decided to join a gym. for the first year, i lose about 35kg. after two years going to the gym, eventho not so hardcore, i manage to get 89kg. then my contract finished, and i've stopped going to gym for about 4-5 months which brings me to my new weight, 95kg~!!

i'm worried about my weight (i gained about 6kg in the past 4-5 month), so i decided to join a gym again. HOWEVER, i kinda lose hope. i can't keep my mind straight and do what i'm suppose to do, loose weight. my tummy, bicep and tricep starts to become flabby. i can't help noticing my tummy is becoming a pregnant lady look. i'm nowhere close to fit.

i feel like giving up, i can't control my eating. i can't diet. has anyone here ever has the same problem as me? how do i regain my sanity and faith in loosing weight and go back to where i was 2 years ago?

please, help me. i don't want to become a fatty, not again. i used to wear pants size 48, then down to 34. now, slowly going up to 38. if i don't start now, i might be a 48 again.

External Maxtor Basic

kardock — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 02:34:18 +0800

I have 640GB External Maxtor Desktop Basic hard drive (3.5"). It was running smoothly without a problem. Not until one day when it's inaccessible and corrupted. Everytime my windows reboot, it went into chkdsk because of consistency,and corrupt several of my files. Still usable, but only for an hour or so.it suddenly turn off and restart itself. it happens for several times.

because of too much hassle with all the error, i deleted the partition. my intention is to create new partition and run recovery software.
However, i cannot create new partition because its kept saying windows cannot complete the format.

can anyone help me to detect the problem? is it because of hardware or software error? the drive is less than 1 years old.

kardock — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 04:32:53 +0800

hi all,

the best birthday ever

kardock — Fri, 27 Jul 2007 04:27:58 +0800

next week is my gf's birthday and i still don't have any plan. this is the first time we gonna celebrate together and i want to make it very special.

first one, what to buy ? this is the first time i'm buying her a birthday present. i'm thinking of getting her a handbag or heels, because she likes it alot. but, maybe u guys got better idea to accompany that.

second, where to celebrate ? what's on my mind is just a simple candle light dinner for two. but i'm not sure about the place (i'm in klang valley btw). maybe victoria station, jake's, or something nice but not too classy or exclusive. something relaxing, romantic and enjoyable.

or maybe u guys got idea for the best birthday ever ? any experience? please help me. i want to make it a very special day for her.
