Ophthalmology

As a medical student in Russia, we are required to take a lot subjects, and among them, an important one is Ophthalmology.
Ophthalmology is the branch of medicine that is concerned with the diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases and conditions. We've been studying this subject for 2 semesters and its quite an interesting one.


And there are 2 important scientific terms that I would like you guys to know of, which myopia and hypermetropia.
Myopia is actually the term used to describe short sighted, inability to view distant objects.
Hypermetropia in the contrary is used to descibe long sightedness, inability to view near objects.

As for me, I have myopia and hate it when it comes to prescribing a new pair of glasses, cause it would always be quite expensive

Now that I found a cheap way, which is to prescribe your glasses online! Wow, its really easy and cheap! Let me show you my Great Discovery: Zenni Optical

Lets make friends

Sometimes its really creepy when you are left alone in the room, isolated with no one to talk to. Since most of my friends had left for their holidays, there are only a few of us left in the hostel, so I'll sleep till late in the morning and only get out of the room when I need to, and thats to the toilet. Felt like crying of that loneliness, *sob*
So I've found a way to curb this, and that is by making friends online or dating online. Haha !
I found this free dating site however, please don't think that its some lousy cheap site, for me, its an established and cool website !
It is a totally free dating site that anyone can join. The casual nature of it attracts people who are new to online dating and may not be ready to use a more traditional subscription service. Many users find that they get to know people much better on this style of site and never bother to move on to a pure dating solution and many continue to visit the site and contribute to the community even after entering a relationship. It also continues to attract a more sophisticated and web-aware audience who are drawn in by the powerful social features not commonly found on dating sites.
This is what we believe people are looking for in an online dating service, always free and much more than a directory of flat personals ads.

Earn some revenue through your blog

My friends have been asking me why I started blogging at the first place, they would be saying that you don't even seem like one who will even blog. Honestly, this is what I told them : I wanna earn some money! And its really a buzz now that bloggers get paid to blog !
And now that I've finally have the chance to earn some revenue, and that's through Smorty. Smorty is a service connecting advertisers with bloggers. Advertisers can pay bloggers to write opinion posts with links back to the advertisers site.

It is really a win-win situation, advertisers get blog advertising in thousands of different and popular blogger's site and bloggers earn money through them. However, I'm really grateful to be included in this big family. Besides getting the chance to earn some revenue, I find the advertisements to be really resourceful not only to others but also to me. I've signed up to some of them myself.
So, do join me in this buzz and start to get paid for blogging now !

Memories of Europe

I can still well remember the last trip I had was an European trip. Was really a memorable and exciting one, especially when you have good companions who are following you, and that was 2 of my friends, Kelvin and Shu Ngie.

Its really important to have good company, as you really need someone to discuss stuffs with, or take care of each other all the way long. Though sometimes, arguments do happen among us, but we build up friendship through that.

We went to several cities in Europe which included Berlin, Brussels, Amsterdam, Geneva, Rome, Venice, Salzburg, Vienna and Stuttgart.


Photobucket

This is a picture of 3 of us in Berlin.

Overall the trip was an enjoyable one, because Kelvin did good preparations beforehand, including the transport, accommodations booking and some vital informations which we really need to know before we land on a totally foreign place for us.

Kelvin did lots of researches through the internet, chose out all the important hotel reservations and must-look spots to explore in the cities. We were really thankful for all the arrangements he did.

And a site he recommend us was a popular hotel discounts and reservations site.This site talks about different offerings they provide like booking of hotels, motels, resorts, vacations rentals etc. They will also review their pricing and talk about how competitive their rates are with great discounts they offer on world wide destinations.

Besides, you can also find informations about flight bookings, car rentals, packages which offers discounts of up to 70%

Therefore, my advice for my friends next time, who really plan to have an enjoyable and would like to have a budget trip, do visit this site for their discounted packages and excellent services.

Will you marry me?

Just recently watched a movie called Blood Diamond, starring Leonardo di Caprio, really a very interesting movie, based on a true story happening in Africa. The movie really made me think of how precious those stones are.
Diamonds are really precious stones, some people would even sacrifice themselves for it. The value of diamonds are high mainly because they are really rare and its difficult to get a real big and precious one. Diamonds are evaluated by its carat, clarity and colour.
And of course, due to its value, it is used in wedding rings, gifts, or in necklaces. The girls really crave for it! Haha
Nowadays, you can design your own anniversary rings, or have top designers design your exclusive and elegant ring. Some offer a wide range of classic and contemporary designs as well as three-stone and eternity rings. There are some websites which offer these services though, where you can choose their beautiful classic solitaire settings or stunning settings with sidestones.

Everyone's leaving me

I'm all alone in the room now, everyone has left for their holidays, how bored
Anyways, I'll be playing a lot of games from now on, with no limitations, muahaha !!
Of course which includes playing backgammon online. Its really a thrill playing with good players and prove how good you are in tournaments. One of the site offering this service is Mister Gammon.

Exams Over - Lets gamble a bit

I would remember that everytime we have a long and boring holidays in the hostel, we'll always get together and do something in the night, and that little something we do, ehem, will last for quite long, till late in the night. Haha, not what you think it is ! We will be playing cards of course.
This trend will become prominent especially during the Chinese New Year, when we'll even start to gamble by playing card games such as Poker.
I've recently found out a new and fresh way of playing poker, that's Poker Odds Calculators, it is a card game product from Magicholdem. The basic idea is the same :
If you play online poker to win and want to take your poker skills to the next level you need to play smart and you need MagicHoldem by your side! Dominate your opponents, win more hands and make playing online poker easier with our Odds Calculator. Created with the help of Professional Poker players and Award Winning Statistic Experts, our state-of-the-art Poker Odds Calculator tool gives you the most accurate odds, poker tips and offers the best professional poker advise anywhere online.

Muahaha !! Finally the air of freedom

Finally finished my last ENT ( Ear,Nose and Throat) paper, and yet again, passed the paper but not with an excellent one.. *sob*
Been under so much stress studying for it, anyways, should thank God that everything's over and I can finally enjoy the holidays.
Since I'll be staying back in the hostel for the holidays, I promise that I'll put more updates on my blog here, haha !
Speaking about ENT exam, I've learnt so much about the anatomical structure of the nose, its importance in the physiological maintenance of the air that we breathe in. As what my lecturer mentioned, the nose can warm an external air temperature by means of negatives to normal human body temperature in just seconds ! How magnificient is God's creation.
Besides that we get to learn also of different types of trauma to the nose, usually resulting in fractures of the nasal bones and gross deformities. However, with the enhancement of surgical techniques today, different types of surgical reconstruction can be done, including rhinoplasty or septoplasty for instance. Plastic surgery therefore is really essential in these cases and important in cosmetic results.
Plastic surgery has been getting popular these days due to the advanced technologies and improved surgical intervention. People get these surgeries for different reasons. Some people want to look younger or fresher. Others simply want a more pleasing appearance.
There are different types, among them : liposuction, tummy tuck, breast augmentation, and eyelift. I've came through a website Beverly Hills cosmetic surgery, they are quite informative about plastic surgery and the Beverly Hills plastic surgeon are qualifed and top surgeons in the field.
They work to make the plastic surgery process as pleasant and smooth for you as possible. That’s why they have assembled a uniquely dedicated staff, trained to anticipate and ease problems or concerns, and use only physician anesthesiologists to assure the highest level of comfort and safety during and after surgery. Minimal pain and patient safety is their priority
Anyways, if you wanna know more please visit their site !!

Semi-Over-It

Well, I'm so euphoric now, just finished my Paediatrics paper !! Was so damn stressed out the night before, tossed and turned on the bed, but just for a while, eventually slept at around 330am I guess.

The question I got wasn't that difficult, but due to the fact that I've not been studying well, cause was going online and blogging all the while, made me scratch my head and nearly pulled off all my hair in the exam room, Haha !

Anyways, have to really thank Kelvin for helping me, the Percentile Method of Height Evaluation ! Lol, though he has been blaming me for not helping him at all, sorry ar, can't recall the answers and I'm a poor student that's it.. ^^

Wouldn't hope much for the results which will be out on Tues, hope that my groupmates would have done well in their paper !

Looking for That Someone ?

Are you troubled by the problem of having to search all over your house, tossing and turning every cupboard, drawers, cabinets just to find a contact number of a long lost friend? Or looking around for the name card of business partner, engineer, accountant, doctor, colleague or any person you are greatly in need of?

I now have the solution, Spock is your answer ! What is Spock actually ? Spock is a unique new people search application where people can be searched by name, e-mail, or tag (personal attribute such as blind, curly hair, accountant, etc). With Spock.com users can easily contribute information and pictures about themselves and others. A Spock search result will let you know where else that person can be found by displaying links to a blog, LinkedIn profile, myspace page, etc. Whether you're looking for a web designer in Seattle, or a friend from high school, an engineer you lost contact of, with Spock you can easily search people in a more efficient way than on Google or Yahoo. Spock is good for professional and social purposes as well



Besides, when you join, you can build your search network to find where everyone you know is on the internet. Every time you search, Spock will personalize your results to include information about friends and colleagues. You can enhance your search experience even further by establishing a trust relationship with others on Spock. By connecting with trusted contacts you will be able to search within their network to rediscover people you've lost touch with and make new acquaintances through friends.

You can also add and modify information that Spock finds about you on the internet. This ensures that people who are searching for you can find you, and more importantly, that they can find the right information about you.

How does Spock gather information?
Spock combines two very powerful forces. First, our technology organizes web content about people into easily understood search results. We search for information on biography pages, social networks, news sites, blogs, directories... pretty much every place imaginable on the internet. Second, the Spock community contributes information to help enhance the search experience. Spock users can add tags, pictures, and web links or simply vote on existing information to increase its relevance. By contributing information about people in your life you improve the search experience not only for yourself, but for everyone.

AMVO.exe Are you infected?

Symptoms of its infection are :

Now when you are opening any drive, its contents are opened in a new window!-

Maybe its communicating on the Internet- Its trying to set a program for startup 'IMVO.exe' stored in System32 folder

Its also running an executable "Nideiect.com"

Hidden files and protected operating system files as usual after these attacks cant be viewed.

Please check ur startup through 'msconfig' , there will be an entry of amvo.exe .

There's no need to reformat, as the virus persists even after reformatting.

Anyways, I've worked out some possible solutions, First to install an antispyware program Eg : Spybot or Spywareblaster.

Another effective way by downloading a program called Flash Disinfector , should be good enough to remove it, can't guarantee the total removal though.

Stressed out ? Some stimuli please !

Everyone's so busy with their revisions and stuff, so I'll be missing out too on postings . Will be active after the exams ! Haha.

Recently saw an advertisement on online casinos, the site is quite interesting, I never knew casinos could go online too. Haha.

Anyways, having a casino online is quite cool, cause it is an independent online gambling portal & the casino guide provides up to date gambling information about the best online casinos in the world. Anyone who would like to try out their luck? Do visit them.

Coffee, Tea or Me?

Hmm, went through an article today, caught my attention. The article is about the benefits of different types of teas. Here are some extracts :

White Tea
A type of very light green tea; the term refers to the white hairs on the picked tea bud.Benefits of White Tea : Researchers speculate that the processing of tea determines its cancer fighting potential. Because white tea goes through the least amount of processing, it theoretically has the most polyphenols (as some polyphenols are oxidized or destroyed during processing). These polyphenols have been linked to cancer prevention. While experiments have been conducted on laboratory rats, more studies are needed in order to determine whether white tea protects humans against cancer. white tea might have the strongest potential of all teas for fighting cancer, especially colon cancer.

Green Tea
Unfermented, dried tea, traditionally found primarily in China and Japan, but becoming increasing popular in the West due to purported health benefits.Benefits of Green TeaGreen tea has a high content of vitamins and minerals. It contains ascorbic acid (vitamin C) in amounts comparable to a lemon. Green tea also contains several B vitamins which are water soluble and quickly released into a cup of tea. Five cups of green tea a day will provide 5-10% of the daily requirement of riboflavin, niacin, folic acid, and pantothenic acid. The same five cups of green tea also provide approximately 5% of the daily requirement of magnesium, 25% of potassium, and 45% of the requirement for manganese. Green tea is also high in fluoride. A cup of green tea provides approximately 0.1 mg of fluoride, which is higher than in fluorinated water. Scientific studies have shown strong evidence that green tea may help reduce the risk of strokes and heart disease, and may also prevent some cancers.-Has potent fat-burning properties-May prevent and reduce the severity of rheumatoid arthritis

Black tea
Green tea leaves that have been oxidized, or fermented, imparting a characteristic reddish brew. The most common type of tea worldwide.Benefits of Black Tea-Increases Coronary Flow -Boosts the body's defenses-May help in recovery after a heart attack-May help reduce the risk of heart disease-Has anti-cancer properties

Red Tea
Red Tea is also known as Rooibos (pronounce roy-boss). It is an indigenous herb of South Africa that is made from the fine needle-like leaves of the "Aspalathus linearis" plant.Benefits of Red TeaLike green tea, Rooibos is high in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants which help reduce the risk of many chronic health problems. These antioxidants are reported to suppress cancer producing cells, slow the aging process, increase our natural detoxification defenses, and lower blood pressure. Rooibos also contains an anti-spasmodic so it helps to relieve digestive distress. African women enjoy Rooibos during pregnancy because it is high in iron, contains no caffeine, and relieves heartburn and nausea. In addition, their babies are given Rooibos to relieve colic.

So my fellow Malaysians, if you're still stuck to drinking the same old Milo + condensed milk, horlick, or the one that my dad loves so much, pure black coffee for breakfast every morning, do consider bout making yourself a cup of nice and nutritious tea in the morning!

That's what we have most of the time here for celebrations, Eat Eat and Eat !!!

Hope my next post won't be something to do with makan again.
