Things in life.......
Not a story, but it is real..
When NASA began the launch of astronauts into space, they found out that the pens wouldn't work at zero gravity (Ink won't flow down to the writing surface).In order to solve this problem, it took them one decade and $12 million. They developed a pen that worked at zero gravity, upside down, underwater, in practically any surface including crystal and in a temperature range from below freezing to over 300 degrees C. And what did Russians do???
The Russians used a Pencil!!!
____________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _________ _______
One of the most memorable case studies on Japanese management was the case of the empty soap box, which happened in one of Japan's biggest cosmetics companies.
The company received a complaint that a consumer had bought a soap box that was empty. Immediately the authorities isolated the problem to the assembly line, which transported all the packaged boxes of soap to the delivery department. For some reason, one soap box went through the assembly line empty. Management asked its engineers to solve the problem.
Post-haste, the engineers worked hard to devise an X-ray machine with high-resolution monitors manned by two people to watch all the soap boxes that passed through the line to make sure they were not empty. No doubt, they worked hard and they worked fast but they spent whoopee amount to do so.
But when a rank-and-file employee in a small company was posed with the same problem, he did not get into complications of X-rays, etc but instead came out with another solution. He bought a strong industrial electric fan and pointed it at the assembly line. He switched the fan on, and as each soap box passed the fan, it simply blew the empty boxes out of the line.
(picture : Team Work, Work Hard...and Play Hard)
Moral of the story: KIS (Keep It Simple) i.e. always look for simple solutions. Devise the simplest possible solution that solves the problem
The importance of being simple So, learn to focus on solutions not on problems.

Cara beli harta lelong
- Rumah atau hartanah yang dilelong biasanya lebih murah berbanding harga pasaran semasa (40% lebih murah) tetapi mungkin keadaan bangunan terbabit tidak begitu sempurna dan banyak kerosakan kerana lama dibiarkan kosong.
- Membeli rumah lelong boleh mengelak risiko menjadi mangsa projek terbengkalai kerana hartanah itu sudah siap dibina, lengkap dengan dokumen serta kemudahan di sekitarnya tetapi pembeli perlu mengeluarkan perbelanjaan bagi membaiki kerosakan.
- Bank yang membiayai pinjaman rumah berkenaan juga biasanya menyediakan kemudahan pinjaman kepada bakal pembeli baru dan mungkin ada yang menawarkan pakej menarik.
- Selain harga, bakal pembeli perlu menilai lokasi hartanah terbabit, jenis pegangan tanah, bayaran tunggakan yang mungkin ada seperti cukai pintu dan cukai tanah serta kenapa rumah berkenaan dilelong dan jika perlu, dapatkan nasihat peguam mengenai keperluan yang perlu ada bagi membeli hartanah lelong bagi memudahkan urusan.
- Bagi mereka yang ingin membeli rumah kedua, rumah lelong adalah yang paling sesuai kerana ia dijual dengan harga berpatutan.
Tatacara membeli rumah lelong:
- Sebelum membeli harta berkenaan, buatlah carian hak milik secara rasmi di pejabat tanah terbabit, lawati harta berkenaan dan pergi ke pejabat pemaju untuk mendapatkan maklumat selanjutnya.
- Berhubung dengan pelelong untuk pengisytiharan jualan lelong dan dapatkan nasihat lanjut daripada peguam untuk mendapatkan segala maklumat.
- Selain itu, anda mungkin wajar meninjau sendiri hartanah itu dan mengambil gambar harta berkenaan dan datang ke tempat lelongan pada masa ditetapkan.
- Pada hari lelongan, pembida diwajibkan membawa bersama 10% daripada harga rizab harta berkenaan, sama ada dalam bentuk bank draf atau tunai. Cek tidak diterima.
- Pembida perlu membawa kad pengenalan asal dan 2 salinan.
- Jika menjadi wakil, kedua-dua kad pengenalan asal dan surat kuasa yang membenarkan dia menjadi wakil untuk mendapatkan lelongan perlu dibawa.
- Jika hartanah itu berstatus Bumiputera, hanya golongan itu boleh menyertai lelongan.
- Wakil juga mesti membawa sedikit wang tambahan untuk membayar antara 10% harga perbezaan pembelian dengan 10% harga rizab (kena tambah) dan tandatangan kontrak jualan.

Seven Anti-Ageing Foods
Eating a balanced diet can not only keep us fit and healthy on the inside, what we eat can also help our skin look younger and help us age gracefully.
Here are seven foods that are not only great for health in general, but are also important for healthy, younger-looking skin.
Blueberries
These are the superfood for healthy skin, and for slowing down the ageing process. Blueberries are packed with cell-protecting antioxidants - more than any other fruit or vegetables.
They are also full of Vitamin C and E, fiber, potassium, folic acid and calcium. They contain dark pigments called anthocyanins, which are important flavonoids that help protect and strengthen the walls of small blood vessels, preventing thread veins.
Blueberries have extremely high levels of resveratol (a natural chemical that protects against inflammation and slows down ageing), as well as many other health benefits we have mentioned in previous articles.
Water
This is a super drink rather than food, but water is essential for a healthy body and skin. It makes up about 70 per cent of our body mass and is involved in practically every body process.
Cellular hydration comes from the water we drink, not from the moisturizer you put on your face. So water literally hydrates the skin, flushing out harmful toxins, eliminating fine lines and reducing puffiness.
Make sure the water isn't too cold, as your body will have to waste energy having to heat it up, and you absorb it much quicker when it's not ice cold.
Avoid flavored water- this is full of sugar or artificial sweeteners
Don't wait until you feel thirsty to drink water because as you age, your thirst mechanism fails to function as well as it should.
Drink water regularly for a week and you'll soon start to see the difference to your skin (inshaa'Allaah). Although it is commonly stated that you need 8 glasses a day, there is no solid evidence for this recommendation, as people's water requirements vary greatly based on age, size, physical activity and so on. Further, water intake comes from many foods too, including fruits and milk. A minimum of two glasses a day is a reasonable baseline amount after consideration of water intake from other sources.
Raw fruits and vegetables (like carrots, watermelon, tomatoes, lettuce, apples, cucumber) are also good sources of water.
Prunes
Prunes are the dried fruit of the plum tree, and they have extremely high levels of antioxidants.
According to research from the US, prunes can protect against premature skin ageing because they mop up more free radicals (cells that attack and damage other cells), than any other fruit. [Prior RL, et al. Can Foods Forestall Aging? USDA-ARS Human nutrition Research Center on aging at Tufts University. Agricultural Research. February 1999]
Prunes are also rich in potassium (good for high blood pressure), fiber, iron and vitamins A and B6. They are easily digested and help maintain bowel regularity.
Broccoli
Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable that contains a useful antioxidant called sulphoraphane. This antioxidant detoxifies and eliminates harmful free radicals. When combined with selenium (a mineral found in oily fish, brazil nuts, sunflower seeds, onions and garlic), it is 13 times more effective at fighting the free radicals that cause ageing.
Broccoli has a high protein content which is good for maintaining healthy cells. It is also high in Vitamin C, folic acid and Beta-carotene, which the body converts into Vitamin A, and can keep the skin looking clear and healthy, especially if you've got acne.
Don't just eat the florets; use the leaves as well because they contain more carotenoids than the florets.
Lightly steaming the broccoli is an effective way of cooking it as it retains most of its nutrients this way.
Bean and Pulses
Eating beans and pulses stimulates the production of hyaluronic acid. This is a substance that occurs naturally in the skin and it retains water in skin cells, therefore acting as a moisturizer, keeping the skin smooth and wrinkle-free. Hyaluronic acid decreases as the skin ages, so it needs to be replenished regularly.
Beans are digested by our bodies slowly, so they provide a gradual increase in blood sugar levels, rather than sharp highs and lows. This means that less insulin is produced, and too much insulin can have an ageing effect on the body.
Beans and pulses are also a great source of fiber. Pulses contain high levels of protein which is necessary for healthy collagen production (this is found in skin, bones and tendons and literally holds the skin together), as well as for new cell development.
If you soak beans in water before cooking them, they become more easily digestible. Remember to change the water before using them.
Pomegranates
Pomegranate juice has more antioxidants in it than green tea. It also contains high levels of ellagic acid, an antioxidant which boosts the skin's natural defenses against the sun.
Pomegranates are packed with Vitamin C and potassium, and they are a good source of fiber, so they aid digestion and eliminate toxins.
The great scholar Ibn al-Qayyim in his Prophetic medicine also mentioned that pomegranates provided "excellent nourishment" for the body, and had many health benefits.
Avocado
Avocados contain the omega-9 essential fatty acid oleic acid, which is also found in olive oil. This is a great antioxidant that protects against diseases like cancer and strokes.
Avocados are a great source of vitamins A and E, which are antioxidants that can help reduce wrinkles. They also contain mannoheptulose, a special kind of sugar which, unlike ordinary sugar, does not stimulate insulin production.
If you eat an avocado with another vegetable or salad, it will take in four times more lutein, eight times more alpha-carotene, and thirteen times more Beta-carotene, which are all great for eyesight.
Here are seven foods that are not only great for health in general, but are also important for healthy, younger-looking skin.
