VIP training pass and Liverpool FC Asia Tour 2011 T-shirt from Suria FM for me!

Assalamualaikum,

1st and foremost, Alhamdulillah, greatest salute for the Most Gracious and Most Merciful Allah Subhanahu Wata'Aala. On Wednesday, 6 July 2011, I entered a contest in Suria FM fanpage. It was a contest to win 2 VIP training pass and Liverpool FC Asia Tour 2011 T-shirt. I entered not because I really want to win it but it's just for fun actually as I thought I wouldn't be chosen as the winner but guess what (no need to guess, the answer is at the title. lol ) I've won the contest.

This contest runs about a week and every day, 2 winners will be selected, 1 in the morning and the other in the evening. I managed to be the Wednesday morning winner and of course I could only say that I was lucky.

But what is it about? First, you have to identify who is the player showned on the picture and then you need to write a slogan on Why did you deserve to win the VIP training pass and the T-shirt and you must also mention Reject Shop is the official retailer for Liverpool FC Asia Tour 2011 merchandise.

So the picture shown was this:

Of course you will known by just a glance, it Steven Gerard!!

and the slogan that I wrote which was in Malay : Saya layak memenangi hadiah tersebut kerana Liverpool FC dan Suria FM menambahkan keceriaan dalam hidup saya setiap hari terutamanya mendengar Suria FM bersama meraikan kemenangan Liverpool ditambah dengan REJECT SHOP, yang pastinya kedai kegemaran saya menjadi retailer rasmi barangan ekslusif Liverpool Tour 2011!!!! Best sangat!!!!

Due to the correct answer and the slogan, I've won the contest and so I'll be getting those prizes mention! But till now I didn't get a call from Suria FM yet as they only take my details. So I'll be waiting for the call and InsyaAllah I'll receive the ticket and the shirts! Thanks Suria FM! Maybe my luck is on football as I'd won the Domino's Fantasy Football too. :-)

Assalamualaikum,

I just want to share something to all of you. Did you wonder which browser is the fastest for you? Is it google chrome? mozilla firefox? opera? safari? or internet explorer? Let's just not compare it by your own thoughts but do it with the easiest way which is by Peacekeeper.

Peacekeeper is a browser benchmark which will test how fast is your browser run during watching high graphic content, managing datas and lots more. What's great about it, after testing for a browser, you can compare it with another browser that you have and it will show the comparison by a graphical presentation.

I've tried it with firefox, chrome and IE and it seems that chrome top the other two with really huge difference and sorry, IE is the most slowest browser.

Chrome top them all with IE...no comment

But for sure it depends on your internet connection too and make sure that you test every browser not in a time but test it one at a time. So why don't you give it a try and drop some comment about it. Maybe you'll get a different result. Click on the first picture to the website or you may click here too. Enjoys!!!

Domino's Fantasy Football 2011 Season is Mine!!

Assalamualaikum,

First and foremost, I would like to say Alhamdulillah for Allah the most gracious and the most merciful. Finally, the English Premier League 2010/11 Season has come to the end 2 weeks ago and I'm split between two. Firstly, the bad thing is Liverpool didn't manage to get a hold of European game next season which leave the league, the FA cup and the Carling cup up for grab. Well the didn't play well for the last two games making them drop to sixth place which doesn't gave them chance for a place for Europe.

Ok, enough for Liverpool. One of the best thing in my life happened for the past year during the season is the Domino's Fantasy Football game! Alhamdulillah after one year of strive, stress and strain, I managed to get the first place for the game. It is certainly not because the fact that I'm smart, it just a bit of luck that Allah have given me to won this contest. The last game of the season is really a heart-pumping game for me as I've never been so serious knowing the football results. Well, though I didn't watch the game due to my friends' team, Arsenal game was not broadcast live on Astro that day, so I only watch the game scores every minute with my lappy from Livescore.com and Futbol24.com. Well the players that I've selected was a bit different from the second place, Sze Khai Wong (SKW) and so I always get adrenaline injected to my nerves every single minute. Well this is my team selection and the SKW team selection.

My team selection 

The second place team selection

As we can see there are some differences in the team line-up. I wouldn't want to say it all so just take a look at it and see the difference. All the matches ended out of my expectations. I start outlining the points for the players for my team and the SKW team from the beginning. Any changes as for the goals, yellow card, red card and goal conceded is being calculated with any defenders and goalkeeper who didn't concede any goal yet will be put in clean sheet position.

At one time, I thought that I would lose when van Persie scored a goal. I had removed him from my team as I hope that Tevez will score a goal or 2 but it not happened. But f rom my calculation, I'm still safe. Anyhow, I wouldn't want to tell every minute in detail, as it will take hours for me to type and I'm kind of getting lazy to type. What I would like to tell is that I've won the season with a difference of just 4 points and the key player of my winning was Joe Hart, Man City's goal keeper. I'm really lucky as SKW had removed Hart from his team by replacing him with Van de Sar. Soooo lucky of me!!! I could say that leads to my victory and right now I'm still waiting for the call and email from Domino's Pizza to confirm my winning as well as the RM10k giving ceremony which I'm certainly there will be a prize giving ceremony for it and I hope I could  attend it as I didn't went to the previous ceremony for the first monthly winner of the competition although papers have been putting my name for it.

So that's all for this season, I hope that I could enter the next season game. I expected a much more competitive game and I will just hope for the best for next season. If Domino's Pizza is willing to give another 10k or much expensive prize, I'll be willingly to join it next season. Wallahua'lam

Hukum Penggunaan Vaksin Meningitis Menveo

Muzakarah Jawatankuasa Fatwa Majlis Kebangsaan Bagi Hal Ehwal Ugama Islam Malaysia Kali Ke-94 yang bersidang pada 20 - 22 April 2011 telah membincangkan Hukum Penggunaan Vaksin Meningitis Menveo. Muzakarah telah memutuskan seperti berikut:

 

1. Setelah mendengar taklimat dan penjelasan daripada Biro Pengawalan Farmaseutikal Kebangsaan (BPFK) dan meneliti keterangan, hujah-hujah serta pandangan yang dikemukakan, Muzakarah mengambil perhatian bahawa proses penghasilan Vaksin Menveo keluaran Syarikat Novartis Vaccines adalah sama sepertimana penghasilan Vaksin Mencevax keluaran Syarikat Glaxo Smith Kline (GSK).
    
2. Sehubungan itu, Muzakarah bersetuju memutuskan bahawa pada dasarnya hukum penggunaan vaksin Menveo adalahharus atas dasar dharurah sama seperti vaksin Mencevax yang telah diputuskan pada Muzakarah kali ke-53 bertarikh 27 November 2002 kerana sehingga kini masih belum ada mana-mana vaksin meningococcal meningitis yang dihasilkan 100% halal dan suci daripada awal hingga akhir proses penghasilannya.
    
3. Walaubagaimanapun untuk maslahah umat Islam, Muzakarah berpandangan di antara kedua-dua vaksin ini, keutamaan adalah kepada vaksin Mencevex yang telah digunakan sekian lama dan telah terjamin dari segi keberkesanan dan keselamatan kepada pengguna. Manakala vaksin Menveo masih baru di pasaran dan pemonitoran kesan jangka panjang masih berterusan.
    
4. Muzakarah juga berpandangan bahawa Sijil Halal tidak wajar diberikan kepada vaksin Menveo kerana penentuan harus adalah atas dasar dharurah dan proses penghasilannya tidak mematuhi piawaian pensijilan halal Malaysia.

Kini tinggal 2 gameweek sahaja lagi..

Assalamualaikum,

Dengan beza markah yang tidak berapa pasti kerana pihak admin yang sering lambat update websitenya, sekarang sudah tidak pasti adakah akan dapat mengekalkan posisi di kedudukan pertama atau tidak, tidaklah ia menjadi kegusaran yang terlampau kerana ia hanyalah keduniaan semata-mata tetapi masih berharap agar impian menjadi kenyataan.

Mula-mula masuk dulu sebab rasa bosan lepas tengok Fantasy Premier League menawarkan hadiah yang sukar digapai, yela satu dunia masuk dan aku ni jenis yang kurang tengok bola dan main dah sekarang, lebih kepada menganalisis perlawanan dan melihat dari jauh, maklumlah rasa diri ni sibuk je.(takde la sangat sebenarnya)

Kemudian suka-suka buka website dominos pizza sedangkan takde nak beli pun, suka-suka je. Tetapi dalam belek2 website tu (boleh belek k?), ternampak satu iklan dekat satu kotak ruang dalam website tu yang menarik perhatian...



Boleh try main ni, mana tahu ada rezeki. Rasa macam tu sebab pertandingan ni terbuka pada mereka yang duduk kat Malaysia je, komuniti Malaysia yang main benda2 macam ni memanglah ramai kalau tengok kat Fantasy Premier League (FPL), tapi melihat kepada jumlah contestant yang baru 20 lebih je, peluang dirasakan amatlah luas.

Bermula la bermain dengan serius, konsep pemarkahan juga berlainan dengan FPL antaranya, assist goal tidak akan dikira, yang menjadi perkara penting di sini ialah gol yang berjaya dijaringkan termasuklah jumlah gol yang bolos dan clean sheet. Sejak itu bermulalah permainan ini. Meletak pemain yang dirasakan akan menjaringkan gol dengan banyak atau sekurang-kurangya satu memberi cabaran, maklumlah dah lama tak tengok bola dan ambil tahu keputusan setiap minggu, yang ambil tahu bila permainan antara kelab2 besar je.

Namun begitu, tidak sangka rezeki berpihak pada diri, bulan September mencatat sejarah bagi diriku kerana dinobatkan sebagai juara bulanan yang mana hadiah yang dapat seperti gambar di atas. Alhamdulillah, rezeki yang tidak disangka-sangka.



Lebih kurang 3 minggu selepas itu, pihak Dominos Pizza telefon dan mengucapkan tahniah kerana berjaya menjadi juara bulan September dan akan diadakan satu majlis bagi memberi hadiah trofi kerana menjadi juara pertama pertandingan ini.

Gembira amat dirasai tetapi apakan daya, majlis itu dijalankan pada hari Selasa, 26 Oktober ketika aku sedang menghadapi mid-semester 5 exam subjek Parasitology. Bagi menggantikan aku untuk mengambil hadiah yang ingin diberi, aku meminta junior ku Najmee kerana dia suka makan pizza dan dijangka mestilah banyak pizza yang akan dimasak untuk hari tu, dah nama kedai pizza kan? Tapi kesian kat dia tak sempat makan pizza kerana kena mengahadiri English presentation petang itu juga. Sorry bro.

Kemudiannya, aku bersemangat untuk mendapatkan hadiah juara bulanan yang berikutnya (tamak2,he3) tetapi memang bukan rezeki ku kali ini, aku hanya berjaya mendapat tempat ke-12 sahaja bagi bulan Oktober, namun tetap gembira kerana housemate ku yang memenangi juara bulanan kali ini,Alhamdulillah..yeah!!....bersambung (kalau rajin nak tulis,he3)

No MUET anymore for me!! Alhamdulillah :-)

Assalamualaikum warahmatullah wabarakatuh,

First of all, congratulations for my friends who manage to get Band 4 for the end year MUET exam! You did it! Now whats left for us is only to get through our course and finally we can graduate at the end of our courses!!Alhamdulillah.

Several months ago, I've been arguing with my friends about whether there is a need for me to take MUET again as they have heard and I also have checked on the internet about the new regulations for MUET which is about the five years validity. Thankfully as for USIM students, the exam validity is only for us to enter our courses. Once we manage to get the needed grades (for FPSK USIM, we need at least Band 4 to graduate), we didn't have to take it again to make up for the validity of MUET. The details are right here, taken from SRC (Student Representative Council) USIM, please read the statement especially the no. 3
