Are You Guilty Of Using Any Of These Passwords?


With all that Heartbleed Bug news, suddenly we’ve got thinking about the passwords we use. We’ve even had to go through the headache of thinking up new ones all over again (and if you haven’t, you definitely should – check here for which sites you should change now!).

It’s definitely interesting to see some of the ‘creative’ passwords users think of. Some are extraordinarily funny; some are just alright, while some are straight up common and could be guessed within a few seconds.

Some people use the events of their lives as their passwords (we’re serious!). For instance, we have a friend that uses the name of their ex followed by a horrid word to describe their nasty breakup. Perhaps it’s a way for these poor souls to vent their anger… somehow? We think it would only make us more frustrated, tapping out their name every day.

Then there’s always that fail safe… using the word “password” as their password. Believe it or not, this is actually one of the most common passwords used around the world. They actually believe that no would ever guess it, as it’s too obvious. It’s simply amazing how these people’s minds work, isn’t it?

When Connections Are Bad, They’re Bad



Can you remember a time when you needed to download something from the website and you were just staring at the estimated time left for the document to be downloaded?

Especially when the loading bar reached 99%… and the stupid internet connection gets disrupted.

We bet this is what you look like when that happens.



Sometimes, you even caught yourself pleading or making promises at the loading bar! Like, “OMG, there’s only another 5% left, if you reach 100%, I will never curse you ever again, I’ll even polish you!” Yeah, like it’s going to respond to your emotions and hurry up just to please you. Good try though, buddy.

Or perhaps, when you are studying abroad and you need to call your parents on Skype and the line is just horrendous. The call gets through, and you spend the next ten minutes saying “Hello, can you hear me?”. You try a few more times, saying hello. 10 minutes, now 30 – all your precious time wasted.

Anyway, fear not folks, we will share some tips on how to improve your internet speed.

Price Hikes We Dread In 2016


The year 2015 was certainly not an easy one for Malaysians, from having to adjust to fuel subsidy removals starting December 2014, to having to cope with price hikes that came with the implementation of the 6% Goods and Services Tax (GST) in April, to having to weather the weakening Ringgit, which hit a 17-year-low against the US dollar (at 4.40) in September due to falling crude oil prices.
To top it up, tolls at highways operated by 11 concessionaires were also raised by between 20 sen and RM3 in October.
Will the upcoming year spell better news for our wallets? We are not counting on it. In fact, there will be further all-round price increments that we are totally not looking forward to. What are they? Read on to find out.

Facts You Need to Know About Your Blood Pressure




Simply put, your blood pressure is the force that the blood makes against the walls of your blood vessels each time your heart pumps. It is important to know what your blood pressure is. This allows you to determine whether it is within the normal range or not, allowing you to spring into action in case it is high. Having high blood pressure puts you at risk of heart attack, stroke and many other health problems.

Measuring your blood pressure on a regular basis is important. Aside from having it done at a doctor’s office, it may also be performed at home. Such is carried out with the help of a blood pressure meter or sphygmomanometer. Aside from something that features a mechanical or mercury manometer, there’s also a wrist blood pressure monitor available these days for easy taking of your blood pressure. However, this device is very sensitive to your body position, potentially causing an inaccurate reading or result.

Why You Should Be Writing Down Your Goals

Why You Should Be Writing Down Your Goals
We hear a lot about the importance of goal-setting but most of us don’t have clear and measurable goals to work toward. Lewis Carroll says, “Any road will get you there, if you don’t know where you are going,” but how important are goals really and if they are vital, how can we make them most effective?
According to a study done by Gail Matthews at Dominican University, those who wrote down their goals accomplished significantly more than those who did not write down their goals. Who doesn’t want to accomplish significantly more? Here are four steps to creating clear and measurable goals that will lead you to huge success.

Is The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) Good For Malaysia?

So, what exactly is the TPP Agreement? The TPP is a proposed regional regulatory and investment treaty aimed at creating a platform for economic integration across the Asia Pacific region.
The proposed agreement originated in 2005 as the Trans-Pacific Strategic Economic Partnership Agreement (TPSEP or P4), and included just New Zealand, Chile, Singapore and Brunei.
It was the United States’ (US) participation and its subsequent dominant role in the negotiations of the partnership that resulted in the expansion of its membership, as well as having a primary role in its agenda setting.

How does it affect Malaysia?

Malaysia joined the TPP in 2010 and is expected to increase its GDP by 5.6% and also its export by 11.9% by year 2025.
The industries most likely to benefit from the pact are textiles, apparel, commodities and electronics.

The New Age Magazine and Occult Explanations of the Great Seal



I‘ve recently acquired sixty issues of The New Age Magazine, spanning the years 1968-73. The New Age Magazine was “the official organ of the Supreme Council 33°, Ancient & Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry Southern Jurisdiction.” The magazine was inaugurated in 1904 and still continues today. In 1990, however, the title of the publication was changed to the Scottish Rite Journal—probably in an effort to distance themselves from being identified with the New Age Movement. In any case, the original name for the magazine alludes to those same esoteric yearnings of the socialist utopians and occult theosophists at the turn of the 20th century. They believed that the world was on the cusp of a New Age of enlightenment. The Age of Aquarius was about to begin; occultists had generally agreed that a shift in consciousness was imminent, and the transformation of society—based upon a masonic ideal—would soon be realized. It is thus appropriate that Grand Commander George Moore, in 1904, named the magazine after the “rite of perfection” conferred on those who partake in the ritual of the 18th degree, the Rose Croix. Candidates who pass through this degree symbolically ascend the mystic ladder from darkness to glory and perfection. The Rose Croix degree, in turn, refers to the 17th Century mystic secret society of adepts, the Rosicrucians, who themselves called for a new age. They practiced the transformation of self through an amalgam of rituals involving hermeticism, gnosticism, alchemy and the kabbalah.

Can the Internet Make Your Long Distance Relationship Easier?



We’re pretty sure you guys have heard of the famous Korean drama, “My Lovely Kim Sam Soon” – pretty much touted as Korean version of “Bridget Jones Diary”.

If you haven’t, here’s a summary of it – it’s a romantic comedy between a woman on the chubby side (Sam Soon) and the son of a wealthy hotelier (Jin Heon). Jin Heon has his own restaurant and decides to hire Sam Soon as the Pastry Chef. While pursuing her dream to be a world-known baker, Sam Soon struggles to juggle her growing feelings for her boss, Jin Heon (and Jin Heon is trying to get over his ex for leaving him blue).

First MRT Line is 65% Complete


Artist Rendering of MRT Station
The Kuala Lumpur Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) project is a part of the government’s economic transformation programme. Anyone driving in and around Kuala Lumpur could not have failed to see the construction, although the company has done a reasonably good job of keeping the traffic moving despite the line running alongside (or in the middle of) major roads.

The project will eventually consist of three lines. The first line will run from Sungai Buloh to Kajang. The train line will be elevated until its approaches the city centre when it will go underground. It will be 51 kilometres long and have 31 stations, seven of which will be underground. It will be capable of carrying 400,000 passengers a day. The second line will be 52 kilometres long and run from Sungai Buloh to Putrajaya and is targeted for completion in 2022.

The CEO recently announced that the first line is now 65% complete, and the first section from Sungai Buloh to Jalan Semantan will be finished by the end of next year and the final section, to Kajang, by July 2017.

How-to : Print Your EPF Statement In 3 Steps



If you are applying for a home loan or a personal loan, one of the most important documents you need to submit together with your application is your latest Employees Provident Fund’s (EPF) statement. This statement shows the monthly contribution from you and your employer in both Account 1 and 2.

For the uninitiated, EPF is a compulsory retirement savings scheme implemented by our government for all salaried workers in Malaysia. The money saved in your EPF account is invested and will be compounded according to the interest rate set.

The statement is a great way to prove the level and stability of your income to the financial institutions you are applying for a credit from. If you are applying for a credit card at the shopping mall, the sales agent will usually print the EPF statement, using your MyKad, on the spot.

However, with the advent of technology, you now don’t need to apply for loans or credit cards physically. With just a few clicks of a mouse, you can sort out most of your banking needs online.
