http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/ where thoughts & words collide.. es http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/05/search-engine-friend-or-foe-to-bloggers.html I came to understand that certain search engines cache websites that they crawl. This is to improve the speed of search as well as also prolong the content on certain sites. It makes me wonder if that is a good or a bad thing. For example if someone blogged on some sensitive issues, as well as accidentally made the entry public, it means that the search engine shall cache the entry. Even if the blogger deletes the entry it is still accessible. A particular search engine shall only remove the cache if the link returns a certain error 404. Most third party blog sites still return a valid page as part of their user friendly feature. Instead of showing the requester an error, they serve a decent page as well as informs that the information requested is not available. So that makes me wonder if search engines are good or bad on behalf of bloggers faced with this sort of issues. http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/05/search-engine-friend-or-foe-to-bloggers.html Fri, 05 Sep 2008 23:31:28 -0400 amedliibrahim http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/01/why-do-i-still-blog.html I just can't stop wondering why blogging is such an addictive thing to do. After a bad experience, I still can't stop writing as well as in spite of the fact that I do not get as much inspiration to blog lately, I still have the urge to continue blogging. But this time around, I have less to write about my personal life as compared to previously before I decided to delete my previous blog. I felt that I have wasted my 2 years of hard work as well as there were so numerous things in that weblog. I still can't trust that it has been deleted. I was only able to savor a few post that was cached by Google. Although I have the urge to blog about my personal life, I just can't put myself in the position to do it anymore. Why can’t we express ourselves fully on the internet? Why must other people be so darn sensitive as well as treat every single word you say as gospel if it is not true? http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/01/why-do-i-still-blog.html Mon, 01 Sep 2008 19:25:32 -0400 amedliibrahim http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/01/everyones-got-talent.html I recently watched a few youtube videos about some Country’s Got Talent. Looking beyond the commercialised talents, I trust each as well as everyone of us has got talent if not TALENTS. Something struck my mind today as I was walking around in the mall. I just had this vision of a baby born in the gallows somewhere not too far away. The parents was holding to this baby sobbing away. And my thought switch to another scene right away. A scene of perfection. A baby all wrapped up nicely as well as both parents seemed to be delighted. I trust the vision or thought gave me a profound reasoning. We are all took into this world in so numerous different circumstances. The first vision was of hardship. Apparently the parents of the baby was overwhelmed with worries of how to take this beautiful gift up well in such undesirable conditions. An average mind would question the inequality as well as unfairness. I too find myself asking the reason why some of my peers are born into rich families whereas I have to struggle every step along the way. But beyond all these, it made me trust very much that we are all here on earth on behalf of a reason. We have been blessed with so much talents. Sometimes we just do not know they exist or do not know how to manufacture good utilize of them. Whatever talents we have I trust we should utilize it well. How do I know what talents I have? I usually get some hints as well as queues from people around me. So far numerous people has mentioned to me that I manufacture a good writer. I can even remember a former supervisor now a dear friend telling me “You have got a flair on behalf of writing”. And write was what I did. Until recently, an incident has really put me off writing as well as somehow, I felt that my talent was suddenly suppressed at the end of deleting a blog that I have been writing on behalf of more than 2 years. It has a really bad impact on me personally. After some time, I felt that I have to rediscover myself again as well as let my fingers do more working. I require to blog good stuff again. But this time, I really require to observe out what I blog as well as write. But the truth is, I am still uncomfortable not being able to express myself fully because of the fact that there's still some restriction I have to impose on myself. I blame it on the society that surrounds me. It is because of the fact that this society that I am in suppresses freedom of speech as well as writing to some degree. We are free to express as long that we do not draw attention to names. The problem is, in spite of the fact that there are no solid basis on behalf of a defamation suit, people are just too conservative to take constructive criticism. Any sign of criticism would be taken too seriously. To be frank, I got a legal threat just because of the fact that I blog about some company’s inefficiency as well as ineffectiveness in executing their project that I was also involved in. Since then, I promise myself not to blog about work anymore. Back to the topic of talent. I find myself possessing the talent but due to circumstances like these, I might have to stop myself from using it. I trust the society that I reside in should take people on behalf of who they are. We have to look into their talents instead of their shortcomings to take the best out of others. Unfortunately, a blunder like the one mentioned above may cost me my life. I may have lost my reputation with certain people. It is sad how a majority of people shall come down hard on you. I told myself today that I shall persevere no matter. I shall continue to write because of the fact that it gives me psychological relief. Somewhere to pen down my frustration, joy as well as whatever emotions I feel. I just bought this book that I trust would answer my question - God Or Profit? http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/01/everyones-got-talent.html Mon, 01 Sep 2008 21:49:07 -0400 amedliibrahim http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/08/an-ah-pek-with-his-little-cup-of-baileys-original-irish-cream.html Once in a while I shall get into this mood of putting myself in a lavish environment. Dreams of sipping on some classy drink in a posh environment. As soon as reality strikes, all hopes as well as dreams would be dashed. As irrelevant as a Caucasian pretending to be an Asian or vice versa, this is the reality when I begin to look inwards. I shall sure enjoy a western drink or two but being one may never be the optimum situation. But I have never like much of the eastern stuffs especially the culture as well as behavior. The exterior things like traditional dressing as well as architecture is a different story though. I like the chinese Sam Fu or Cheong Sam. Some kitchen wares as well as the traditional rosewood dining table as well as chairs do capture my attention sometimes. I just dislike the way Asians take up their children. Very suppressive environment. It would be better to permit children expressing themselves to their maximum potential. The baby’s crying as well as it is very difficult to endeavour raising a baby the way I desire at the moment so I better stop here on behalf of now… http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/08/an-ah-pek-with-his-little-cup-of-baileys-original-irish-cream.html Mon, 08 Sep 2008 21:12:07 -0400 amedliibrahim http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/08/sweet-victory.html The unity was felt very obviously today. Although it was really quiet throughout the process, I have got a feeling that something great is brewing underneath the silence. Turned out, all of us have the same feelings as well as sentiments. The results show on behalf of itself that everyone truly wants a change. A modification on behalf of good. For our future as well as their future… The targeted  tyrant majority has been denied. This victory was not only won by one race. It was won by all races. The UNITY that we longed on behalf of since we accomplish independence. We felt it today. It was truly present. Indeed, we do trust one thing in common. We have speak our minds in unison. We shall transfer on to improve further as a great Nation. To be somewhere in the World’s eyes again. http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/08/sweet-victory.html Mon, 08 Sep 2008 22:33:55 -0400 amedliibrahim http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/07/truly-lost.html I am feeling really lost right now. There does not seemed to be any fulfillment in everything that I do at the moment. Maybe it is because of the fact that we are in the midst of waiting on behalf of a huge modification in our lives as well as the waiting period has taken a toll on me mentally. At the back of my mind, I also trust that everything happens on behalf of a reason. Maybe I am feeling bugged because of the fact that of the current economic situation besieging us. It is a worldwide situation where all leaders are in the midst of looking on behalf of solutions except on behalf of our very posses government. Our government is still bickering over the last general elections. They are still going on about who warned who about bloggers making a big impact. The problem is, the election is over as well as there's no require to look back anymore. No point being bitter as well as still trying to figure out the difficulties or causes of the lost or win. We are faced with even greater pressing issues as well as these people are the ones having the power to do something about it - as well as yet they are still sulking over the past general election which ironically has again put them in power in spite of the fact that through a smaller victory. I wonder how this is going to progress with such a bad recession as well as also food shortage around the world. Prices of things has gone up tremendously as well as all these are bugging me as well. We are soon to shift into a new place of our posses as well as I am quite concerned of how we can manufacture ends meet with so much expenses at hand. I am wondering how I can manufacture things better on behalf of myself instead of subject to this useless government to be thinking about the citizens because of the fact that that shall never happen, ever. I trust in any country, you are suppose to fend on behalf of yourself as well as be prepared on behalf of every single thing. In a way it is sad that the world i becoming really selfish as well as that is just the way it is. http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/07/truly-lost.html Sun, 07 Sep 2008 22:26:45 -0400 amedliibrahim http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/09/our-world-today.html Being a weak person, I constantly seek God’s strength to help me brace the world that I am in. I usually visit www.wau.org to go through the daily bible readings as well as meditation article on a daily basis. Right at the end of going through these materials, I ordinarily read the local news through the local press websites.For the reason that negativity sells faster, ordinarily the news covered in these online presses are on negative topics. It is just so typical of the world. I just can't help but to feel that this sequence of activities do remind me of how we as humans are. Firstly, I require the grace of God to be present in our lives as well as with the strength that we draw from me, we ordinarily are able to brace the world. Today, we require God more than ever because of the fact that the world is changing so rapidly towards taking the likings on behalf of negativity. It is really sad indeed to have come to this point. I no longer fear the apocalypse God spoke about because of the fact that I truly understand that it would not be God that shall send his wrath to destroy mankind, but it would be mankind itself that shall destroy humanity. I summarize the predominant reason to all these negative happening with just one word, GREED. http://amedliibrahim.freechipz.com/2008/09/09/our-world-today.html Tue, 09 Sep 2008 19:39:09 -0400 amedliibrahim
