Selecting a Rice Cooker

lohjiyuan — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 16:44:56 +0800

Most rice cookers uses inner pots that are made from Aluminum or are Teflon coated.

Research have shown that cookware that are made from Aluminum contributes to Alzheimer disease and the Aluminum content seeps into our food, especially when acidic food is prepared in it. It has been banned in Germany, France, Belgium, Great Britain, Switzerland, Hungary, and Brazil.

Teflon coated cookware leaks toxins into our food and emits toxic gas that is cancerous when heated at high temperature. My friend's friend's had a pet bird and it died after inhaling the gas emitted by teflon cookware. If you don't believe this, you can go ahead and google it. I have read the book by Consumer Association Penang (CAP) about Teflon cookwares and it is scaring.

I am an avid fan of rice cookers due to its convenience and perfect timing. So I am looking for a stainless steel inner pot. I searched online and found out that Khind does sell rice cookers with stainless steel inner pots but I don't know which shop in particular has it as I've been to several places.

If anyone of you have seen it or bought it, please let me know where can I get it specifically. Will appreciate it if its in Klang Valley or Penang.

How to link a button to another form in C#

I don't know anything about C# except to drag and drop the buttons and text boxes.

I am just making a prototype of a system.

I have tried searching online and the whole idea that I got is that I have to declare something and then show the other form.

For example, I just need to make it like: when I click button1 in Form1.cs, it goes to Form2.cs

Can anyone enlighten me?

Installation file for Terminal

lohjiyuan — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 22:31:35 +0800

I installed a RAR software so that I could unRAR files, I forgot the name of the software but it didn't have any GUI, I had to type commands to execute my actions. I didn't like it and am now using Zipeg instead.

However, when I was deleting it, I think I accidentally deleted "Terminal" from my macbook, I tried searching for it with Spotlight, it didn't show. I tried looking for it under Applications>Utilities, its not there.

People please help me because I need to use Terminal.

Thank you in advance.
