Melayu tiru Korea, Korea tiru Hindi...

Tadikan aku tengok drama Melayu, Gemersik Kalbu episod 17. Ada scene, yang Sufian tiba-tiba menjerit di dapur yang kononnya jarinya terputus. Maka dengan kalut Raihana mencari jari tersebut dicelah-celah sayur dan di dalam periuk.

Hmm....macam pernah ku lihat je scene itu. Tapi di mana ya ????

Opps........drama korea, Full House.....;))

Haritukan aku tengok drama Korea, Couple or Trouble @ http://www.dramaload.com/korean-drama-couple-or-trouble/watch-couple-or-trouble-episode-1-14284/

Kisah perempuan kaya yang angkuh, tiba-tiba hilang ingatan dan terpedaya untuk tinggal bersama dengan lelaki miskin yang menyara 3 orang anak saudaranya.

Sound familiar huh.....

Cuba ingat semula, cuba fikir drama atau filem yang kita pernah tengok masa kecil dulu...

Dapat?

Yelah.....filem Hindi, tapi tak ingat tajuk..penat aku google. Patutlah tak jumpa, ingatkan heroin dia aishawarya...Dah 1 jam tetiba aku teringat heroin lain yg cantik jugak...hish2 susah betul nak muncul namanya.......yup yup.....Neelam.....
Maka...filem Hindi, iaitu Ek Ladka Ek Ladki




Psst..aku dah berjaya submit paper aku. Tapi sat ni, aku check email ....alamak....aku tak letak my phone and fax number@manuscript.....Hish banyak songe lah journal nih. Takpe esok aku aku edit and resubmit. Ya Allah, permudahkanlah perjalanan Phdku, lembutkan hati reviewer untuk menerima paper dan juga editor untuk terbitkan paper hambaMu ini....Amiin...........

Oklah nak tido...nite everyone...eh..dah pagilah..1.40am....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Cabaran seorang pelukis....

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr............korang tak payah baca. Nanti korang pun penin. Aku memang penin........

Aku bengang, aku geram.............

Ini semua mengenai figure.

Aku taip my paper in Latex. So I can get the output for the text file either in dvi or pdf. Selain itu my figures should be as eps file.

Dulu seronok je guna Adobe Illustrator where we can convert/export the file to .pdf or .eps

Bila my Adobe Illustrator dah tak berfungsi, aku guna Mayura.

Bila trial version Mayura expired, aku tak boleh convert md file to .eps.

So, my supervisor paid for the registration..Alhamdulillah...

Tapi lepas tu, ada problem dengan eps file. Kinda like it cannot be rendered in Ghostview. Senang cite gambar tu tak keluar masa tengok output dvi file.

Bila google, mungkin size eps file tu besar.

Entah apa aku godek2, akhirnya keluar juga gambar tuh.

Then, bila my spv tengok figure tuh, dia suruh baiki....huish baru nak hilang stress, datang yang baru. Takpe terpaksalah try and error coz tak banyak info pasal Mayura. Alhamdulillah ok....

Tapi, I got problem when submitting my paper to journal today. The online system can't convert my source file to pdf file.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

I don't know what is wrong...

When I checked my source file, it seemed that the same rendering problem occurred again. Hmmm...big size file for figure. I just wonder why it cannot work today, even though I didn't have any problem during last weekend.

I tried to reduce the size of the objects, but still the file still big in size. I guess for Mayura the number of objects affect the size of the file, not the size of the objects. When I google how to reduce the size of eps file, I couldn't do any of the suggestions to my figure file.

Suddenly I just remember 'bodo' style ;)) (tiru ayat ustaz Azhar). From md file I convert it to pdf file. I planned to convert the pdf file to eps file. Hmmm....But I don't have pdf converter. The technician had to uninstall it from my desktop because the license was only for staff. Hey..lets make use of google again....Alhamdulillah, using online converter, I managed to convert the pdf file to eps file...and of course reduce the size of eps file. So, the figure appeared in dvi output. Hmm...sat gi nak check online submission for journal tuh

Kulit bab*..pernah makan???

Kenapalah aku tak boleh nak start writing tesis ni?
Kenapalah aku tiada motivasi utk baiki my paper?
Kenapalah aku tak jumpa schematic figure files for my paper?
Kenapalah aku plan nak pi jogging petang ni, tapi sesudahnya dok ngadap lappy sambil makan kacang Koh-Kae?
e..eh...at 7pm aku pi jogging+walking la, then 7.30pm buat senaman untuk perut boyot
Kenapalah aku tiada kesungguhan nak kemas meja, basuh baju (done at 8.30pm) dan lipat baju (done while watching AJL2012)?
Apa2 pun luckily aku ada keinginan untuk sort files in desktop dan mampu bertahan sampai habis dikerjakan ;)).........
Selain mencuci downstair and upstair toilet dalam paksa rela....
Tapikan aku nak bebel sikit nih.............

Bila balik dari Australia day-fireworks show, aku tengok tv jap then bukak fb, dan terbaca Cik Olyn mewar-warkan pasal program@ABC1............bagaimana kulit khinzir diproses/dirawat menjadi marshmallow. Thanks for the info ;)...(Tak payahlah nak diet, jom kita tembam dan tembun bersama :D). Even though I missed that tv program, without any delay I watched it online from http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/view/884400. Anyway if you can't watch it online or the video is no longer available I have the screen shots on how they produce marshmallow from pig skin.

Proses rawatan kulit khinzir dengan asid

Setelah beberapa jam, bahan tersebut dimasak seperti sup/stew untuk dapatkan pig stock

Cecair yang mengandungi gelatin ditapis

KetepikanProses memasak gula dan glucose syrup

Air gula dicampur dengan cairan gelatin dan dipukul untuk mendapatkan buih udara yang akan menghasilkan tekstur seperti span.

Ditambah pewarna dan perasa vanila dan dipukul sehingga menjadi seperti di bawah


Adunan dimasukkan ke dalam acuan dan dibiarkan sehingga keras/kental


Keluarkan dari acuan dan taburkan/salutkan dengan gula

Proses cuba rasa
Apa rasanya?????
"feel nice, taste a little bit piggy"...maka ...................


Sebab tu la kawan2, jangan sesuka hati makan marsmallow. Takpun minum hotchoc dengan marshmallow

Takpun marshmallow dip......

Takpun grilled marshmallow...........Class ek, cam omputih ;)).............

Psst............yang ke-3 tu aku pernah buat masa kekecik :

gara-gara pengaruh tv,
tiada unggun api,
ubat nyamuk pun jadi
Syukur hidup lagi ;))....

Memanglah secara logiknya dan teknikalnya, tidak mungkin kita secara sedar atau sengaja nak makan kulit bab*, but still we should be extra careful with pig byproduct such as in this case the gelatine for marshmallow. Unless ada logo halal pada marshmallow packaging or ingredients on the label contain halal gelatine.

Hasil dari khidmat google, gelatine juga digunakan dalam proses pembuatan gummy jelly, low fat yogurt, ice cream etc. So once again be careful with what we eat.

In Oz walaupun ada certain produk tiada logo halal, tapi kalau they use halal gelatine I beli je la misalnya yogurt
Ada juga produk yang tiada logo halal dan bahannya mengandungi gelatine, tetapi bila di rujuk pada website produk tersebut ternyata gelatin halal. Misalnya


Ingredients

GLUCOSE SYRUP (WHEAT OR CORN), CANE SUGAR, GELATINE, THICKENER (1401 OR 1420) (WHEAT), FOOD ACID (CITRIC ACID), FLAVOURS, COLOURS (120, 163, 141, 160c, 100, 102, 122, 133, 110).


From FAQ : http://www.nestle.com.au/AboutUs/FAQs/Pages/NutritionRelatedQuestions.aspx#d

Q: Is the gelatine used in Nestlé products Halal?

A: The gelatine used in our ALLENS confectionery such as Snakes Alive, Frogs Alive, MINTIES, WONKA confectionery such as REDSKINS and Toffee Apple (with the exception of the WONKA Nerds Rope), Violet Crumble and NESTLÉ PETERS ice-cream is halal, however, this does not mean that the product has halal certification. For a full list of halal certified products, please Contact Us and we would be happy to send a list to you.


(Thanks to LG-Salam2Benua yang memperkenalkan katak dan ular tu ;))...kawan saya pun suka).
