I may not be an American

From the title,
It says so little but could just mean so much.
I may not be an American, but if i could i would place my support for Obama.

Many did say that this video may be a propaganda tool,
Further elaborating that what he did is not right.

I did my research on every topic covered in the video..

and damn i'm proud to see a human being of his status living up to his promise.

His promise of Change.




Looking at the great United States of America.
It was obvious that the country was in unstable decline during the Bush Administration.
As all they did was pumped money into the economy hoping that the problems would go away.
After assuming power, hard decisions were made.
One would think of that moment where decisions made are not worth the Risk.
But just as a game of Poker, You'll never know you've won till you see your opponents hands.
I am extremely intrigued on the possibility of a secondary Bail-Out for America's Automotive Industry.
Where proposition was pointing on the fact that companies like General Motors were loosing money by the second.
It was obviously clear to a regular mind that a bail-out would be preposterous!

He did it anyway.......

With harsh terms and conditions where the government would play a significant role in the management of the industry till the loans are paid back.

And knowing now that GM showed an increased growth on the past few years proves that there had been a change. and in just 2 years loans were paid back in full and the company has begun hiring again.
Many do complain on the presidents stance in a Green America, but one thing for sure his recent gas mileage limitation on all vehicles in america shows that he may sacrifice a rich commodity(Gasoline) for the sake of environment. 
And as a double edge sword is sharp on both ends, this decision has pacified the Oil Hungry Nation. This would clearly improve conditions for the future of the nation.

One this is still for sure,
after viewing Defranco Nation and Sourcefed's  live feed on the DNC and DRC.
*links down below*
has somehow pointed out that the Occupy movement, originally having a good cause, is currently being drifted from their main objectives.

As i dug through the masses of information all over the internet. I could only clearly summarize that, 
The Occupy Movement is fought by modern day hippies whom don't want to get their sorry ,lazy fat asses of the ground to get work done. They believe that "BLA BLA BLA" but their actions justify else. But it's obvious that their cause is slowly diminishing and they would greatly prefer to be fed by the government if possible...

If there are any protesters on my site now..
I fully recommend you to come on down to Australia!

where the government will feed you constantly and take care of you till the day you die on the expense of others.....


The true protesters of the movement have long gone back into the workforce as conditions have significantly improved.

Placing all this problem aside, i wish that the Malaysian Government could at least practice half the capability of the current American Government.
But it is obvious that we Cant compete with a nation of that magnitude, but it is still possible that we could the least change the direction in which the nation is heading....

I do hope and pray for the sake of the future generations....

which includes, Assignments, Projects , and preparation for Design Proficiency.

Few good things got done... but i worry on the time i have left till completion..
greatly running out of time...

I just wish for the next 6 weeks that i could get an extra day in the week..
just so that i can use it to replenish myself or organize my stuff...
and well... if only it was possible....

Anyway... checkout this video below.
It's from a YouTube Sensation TomSka,
really enjoy watching his videos.. but kinda wished he updated more often...

=)
Enjoy!



Anyway... I'll better be on my way studying...

Just a Quiet Sunday in UNSW


Spring is coming on this quiet day...

It's a quiet Sunday in UNSW,
Made a trip from Parramatta just to attend a group discussion with my mates

What’s the discussion on?

Ethics...
Yes... ethics...

We're just making an early preparation on the topic of 
Environmental Ethics: Desalination.

To be honest, I still feel that ethics is rubbish… and you can’t teach ethics…
You and only provide information based on ethics, regardless of that individual accepting it as his own is uncontrollable….

Oh well…

Back to study…

Seeya..

Entrepreneur Engineering - Apple Vs Samsung.

Well, this is my final semester in UNSW,
I did chose to take it a little easier,
dropping most heavy engineering subjects for the slightly relaxed Business courses.

On the recent class , I've honestly found that the topic covered was fairly interesting as it was regarding Samsung's and Apple battle for patent rights.

Check out this link.

From my perspective, i greatly find that the whole issue in the court battles is just apples way of showing a ridiculously large amount of force...

Many would disagree to my point...
but..
lets go alittle back in time...
when it was
Apple vs HP...

that was a pretty sad event from my perspective as HP had to withdraw its product from many places around the world.... Causing losses so high which was almost an under blow to HP giants technology sector.
Link

Going back to our main agenda, Apple and Samsung,
most of my concerns could be explained in this comic.


Suing on the base of patent reasons is just a little off.
As the patent war went into topics such as the single finger swipe which apple claimed to have patent.
and the multi touch functionality of the screen.

It seems not worth fighting for as the patent itself in my opinion is rubbish.... imagine, if someone did patent the qwerty keyboard, and because of that patent, only companies whom purchased licence agreements are allowed to used that design...

wouldn't that just cause mass confusion in the consumer market?
imagine every company has a different computer keyboard for the laptops/desktops.

Just not right.. isn't it?

That's exactly what that single patent is doing....
it's not "Design" It's in humans nature to do things... 
even on a regular piece of paper, to flip it you pull it from a page to another...
it physics... and not something that was only created by programmed function.....

Furthering on this claim, It is obvious that apple wants to achieve market dominance/superiority in the Smart Phone Sector.

If not, they would have already pursue the hundreds of companies which made a fool out of apple products.
here are a few links on this topic that i'm pretty sure would excite you more ....

Link 1 - Apples Win Ushers an era of nastiness.
Link 2 - The Hi-phone 5
Link 3 - This Phone is relatively better than the iPhone....


Many Will disagree on my basis saying that apple 

"CAN'T ENTER CHINESE MARKETS TO REMOVE THE PESTS"


Would you not agree that a mega company like apple would be able to "delete" its competition...
why didn't they just do what they did to Samsung to the little Chinese Counterparts?

Just cause they don't see the threat like Samsung would...

I'm not hating on Apple Corp, as I have owned several of their products.

This does change future events in the coming markets.

and Samsung didn't really loose....

nor Apple truly won...

but one thing is for sure... is that the 


"Consumers loose"

Sometimes It's just not fair....

Well,
Just had a really really bad day...
examination/test etc occurred and it's a practical.

well... everything was working perfectly...
UNTIL...

the computer which the university provided me with died and took my codes with it to the grave.....

I still wonder now... if i have failed...=/

I placed my full effort and concentration into this shit...
and something that was not on my control fails...
and now... it's MY FAULT!? 0_0

Iphone is acting up.. But hey... I'm not complaining.


My phone's camera has malfunctioned, 
but hey good shots has been taken :)
not including the 2500 photos taken of myself 
and my journey back to Parramatta from the city... =)

-Ben-

Probably the only few reasons why I love watching the skies

Wonder

Sometimes i do wonder, is it so that bad things happen cause it just does?
Or would it be due to a chain reaction that we could not foresee...

Oh, I'm so angry right now due to stupid reasons...
Furthermore it is not my fault...

sigh,

Olympics...

I've just read an article regarding a supposedly legitimate "FACT"
that Beach Volleyball is one of the MOST popular sport in the current Olympics and running...


Out of pure curiosity,
I had no other feeling but to attempt to Prove if it was,
and if it was, of course, the famous question..
Why..?


After looking through sources such as 
"Wikipedia"


and 
"Volleyball Australia"


I've realized that, Yes it's a fun sport.
BUT...
there's seriously nothing special about it.
The game is as dull as a football(Soccer) game should.


But then the obvious hit me....


The Statistics don't add up..
what i mean by that is out of 10 football fans , probably 87%-90% of them would have played footie in their life.
But when it comes to Beach Volleyball , it only ranges between 20% - 32%.....
It's just not right huh? (*That's a good amount of Voyeurs*)


Hardcore Beach volley fans would love the Sport.
But there's a vast majority whom loves the PEOPLE in the games


It's been clarified that it is one of very few Olympic sports which players can wear what ever they want...
But with a nation equality condition bla bla bla bla.....


So, I went Picture searching and well...
The findings speak for themselves


Male Teams



But here are the female teams.


 



With Views like this...
Damn...

I think the question is NOT , How are the men teams in the Beach Volleyball?

It's "Are there even men teams in Beach Volleyball?"

You want more?

Enjoy yourselves!

Koo-Tan crash out of badminton finals

After Reading that headline, a little part of me was sad that we got trashed during the semi's
watching the team from China kick the pair out of the competition in just a mere 30 minutes is way too shocking.

You guys did your best,
and well... the pressure's on Our world Champion, Chong Wei...

The Only Time that I'm Proud...

I'm a Malaysian... Although i'm usually never too proud to be one in recent times...
but...
with the Olympics going on this is something that i could look forward to.

As the only 2 nations that i truly support in the Games are,
Australia
and 
Malaysia.

There's little that can be looked forward to, especially when Australia isn't doing as great as it could in the years before... -_-''

anyway... the following has been adapted from another blog that I've recently browsed

Do Check it out , It's a pretty good read for now.
=)

Datuk Lee Chong Wei and doubles pair Koo Kien Keat/Tan Boon Heong beating their respective opponents to advance to the semifinals Thursday


~Meanwhile, Chong Wei, the world number two and top seed in the men's singles competition, as expected delivered the goods when he cruised into the semifinals after defeating Kashyap Parupali from India 21-19, 21-11 in 44 minutes in today's quarterfinals.


~Koo and Tan, the world number eight pair, were the first to bring the all needed cheer to the Malaysian camp after their despatched their quarterfinal opponents Isara Bodin/Jongit Maneepong of Thailand 21-16, 21-18 in 43 minutes at the Wembley Arena here.

Finally something that is not disappointing.

You have just got to open your eyes

Hey guys,
Well uni is well on the way and one thing for sure it's getting tougher by the moment.. Honestly I do wish things were much easier than it is now...

Lately I've been told by alot of friends that I seem to be bumping into acts that people usually don't see... Naming a few are such as:
Watching a guy fall off a boat
Catching a moment of a stunt plane flying between a building
Mistakenly walking in on a couple doing it at the library
The embarrassing sights of a man with his junk hanging out of his pants
And witnessing a female burst into embarrassing mode dropping her stash of dildos on the floor...

And yes.. They were all true...
And NO I'm no voyeur..

Well I'm certain that I don't go looking for things like these to happen... They just happen anyway... Hahaha...

Things like these , honestly are what that makes my life more interesting that it could be... As I'm an engineering student...well there is no life from that huh..

My point is that for those out there whom find life incredibily neutral and dead... Just open your eyes and be surprised that things are never as it seems.

Exemptions for many Asians as the idea of 'opening your eyes wide' might be an impossible task...

Back in Australia

University has begun again... =(

and one thing for sure... this final push is not going to be a walk in the park....
Like a subject i'm taking called Design Proficiency ..
4 modules inside each with a passing mark of 75 % to fail one is a complete fail for the entire course... =/
i hope i'm doing this right...

The Business of Life...


Take for an example…
We have…. 




Company A.

Company A is doing very well in the business world,
For that it has opened its doors to the public by making it a public listed company,
in which the public is allowed to buy shares from it…A year has passed and the company shares have rose by 50%
and constantly improves itself in the coming years…
A yearly report had been produced showing that it has accomplished 95% of the goals which they target every single year.


Now, we have 


Company B

Company B has already been in a public owned company for years…
But as time passed, it’s capability in the business environment continues to deteriorate.
This is due to the fact that it is unable to adapt to the constant changes in environment.
Its shares continue to plummet at a constant rate but barely beating the profit margin to continue sustaining its business.
 Based on both examples provided, which would u invest your money on?
 What I’ve shown above is an analogy which can be related to a lot of topics which the mind sets you to.
 Isn’t it obvious that A is the safer choice?
But why would someone choose B?
Till today… I Ponder….
