Incredible Eye Test

Incredible Eye Test

 

Quick Eye Exam…


This will blow your mind…!

Just do it – don’t cheat!!!!!!!!!!!!

Try this its actually quite good.

But don’t cheat!

Count the number of F’s in the following text:

FINISHED FILES ARE THE
RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

Managed it?

Scroll down only after you have counted them!

OK?

How many?

Three?

Wrong, there are six – no joke!

Read again!

FINISHED FILES ARE THE
RESULT OF YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC
STUDY COMBINED WITH THE
EXPERIENCE OF YEARS

The reasoning is further down…

The brain most likely wasn’t able to process the “F” in “OF”.

Incredible or what?

Anyone who counts all six F’s on the first go is a genius; three is normal.

Windows Backup Files/Folders to Date Specific File

How to use Windows Backup/Restore Wizard to backup to date specific folder/filename?

Here are the steps:

1. Create a backup scheme using Windows Backup and Restore wizard. The scheme file will end with *.bks and store under

“C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup.exe backup “@C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows NT\NTBackup\data\”

2. Download DOFF utility from http://www.jfitz.com/dos/index.html#DOFF. We need this to output the date/time value to our backup file.

3. Create a batch file with the following text:

@echo off
for /f “tokens=1-5 delims=/ ” %%a in (‘doff yyyy/mm/dd/hh/mi’) do (
set yyyy=%%a
set dd=%%b
set mm=%%c
set hh=%%d
set mi=%%e)
md f:\%yyyy%%mm%%dd%%hh%%mi%\
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntbackup.exe backup “@C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Windows NT\NTBackup\data\dailybackup.bks” /n “%yyyy%%mm%%dd%%hh%%mi%.bkf created %mm%/%dd%/%yyyy% at %hh%:%mi% ” /d “Set created %mm%/%dd%/%yyyy% at %hh%:%mi% ” /v:yes /r:no /rs:no /hc:off /m normal /j “dailybackup” /l:s /f “f:\%yyyy%%mm%%dd%%hh%%mi%\dailybackup.bkf”

Basically what the batch file does is take year/month/day/hour/minute value from DOFF and assign to variable a/b/c/d/e/f, then make a directory with the date/time as folder name, then call Windows Backup wizard to backup the actual data to the newly created date/time folder.

4. For repeated scheduled backup, you can call the batch file to run at specific date/time by using Windows Scheduler.

2008 Restaurant Cheras Business Center

It was raining the whole evening today, so for dinner, me and my friend went to a restaurant nearby.

Actually this is the first time both of us having dinner at this restaurant. Every time we pass by the restaurant, we always saw quite alot of customers. So we said why not give it a try.

Well, frankly the food was quite nice. Both two of us order a fish dish, a vegetable dish and drinks.

Here we go:

https://www.itechblog.com/herbal-fish1.jpg

The first disk is herbal fish, which is an unusual way of cook fish in Chinese cooking. The taste is good, with rich aroma of Chinese herbal, kao kei and abit of Chili. Worth a try because we seldom see herbal fish at other places.

https://www.itechblog.com/herbal-fish2.jpg

The herbal fish comes with plenty of tasty soup with rich herbal aroma too. We mixed the soup together with the rice and they come along quite well. Nice to have something hot for a cold raining day.

Then we have another vegy cook in unusual way., a Yin-yong Kailan

https://www.itechblog.com/yinyong-kailan.jpg

First the leaves were sliced to thin slices and fried till crispy, with abit of salty taste. The stalk was cut and stir fried just tender enough and not too old, with oyster/soya source as the base. The mixture of both the crispy sliced leaves and lightly cooked stalk come together quite well, give me a distinctly Yin Yong kind of taste inside the mouth.

Well, we end our dinner with a glass of orange juice and Chinese tea.

https://www.itechblog.com/orange-juice.jpghttps://www.itechblog.com/chinese-tea.jpg

The herbal fish costs RM22, Yin Yong Kailan RM13 which we think were reasonable because the portion was meant for 3-4 persons. We will definitely go there again for their chef-recommended Yim-Kok-Yu (Salt covered fish, which need 25-30 minutes to prepare) and LaLa (forgot what style)

The address of 2008 Restaurant is Block C, 20-0-8, Jalan 2/101C, Cheras Business Center. Reservation call Danny 013-351 7479
