Steve Jobs Quit

Salam.

Yes. You've probably heard the news. He quits. Yes.


Steve's news were all over the place. And yes, it has been rumoured before he even send his resignation letter.

Why he did that? Just assume he's sick (in which he is) and being Apple CEO can kill him. However he did mentioned that he can either be members of board of directore, employees or whatshit. (Thats demanding).

And the result of his action? He is so significant, whatever he did will affect the whole company. Yes. Like? Apple stocks in the stock market falls greatly. Yes. The same thing happens before when he ask for a medical leave. He was into this liver transplant shit and Apple's stocks only recover when he came back.

Whatever it is, it is a good competition in the gadget world with his presence. Yet we never will be able to tell what will take place in the future of smartphones and internet tablets.

Hope everything ends well.

Malaysia's 54th Independence Day

Salam.


Yes. August is celebrated as the Independence Month as Malaysia celebrate its Independence Day on the 31st of August. But since Ramadhan took over August, it is appropriate to move it to the later date which is on the 16th of September where a significant event also took place on the same day. The establishment of Malaysia. Previously known as Malaya, Malaysia now consists of 13 states and 3 federal territory and is divided into Peninsula and Borneo.

Every year, the theme for our Independence Day is different and this time, its

1Malaysia: Transformasi Berjaya, Rakyat Sejahtera
(1Malaysia: Successful Transformation, Prosperous Citizen)

I'm looking forward this 16th of September for our Independence Day so I can shoot some nice picts.

PSP E-1000

Salam.

Sony announces their latest PSP dubbed PSP E-1000. This WiFi-less PSP will be available across Europe this fall starting at €99. No words about the global release as Sony only mentioned that it will be available in PAL area.


In my honest opinion, who would buy this one? You're better off with PSP-1000 or PSP-2000 as it is hackable. Yes. It is.

No-Fingerprint Disease

Salam.

Imagine you have no fingerprint. On all your fingers. SO HOW THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO REGISTER FOR ANYTHING??

Scientist found out that mutated DNA has caused such disease to be apparent among human on earth.


Check out the news below.

Rachel Kaufman
for National Geographic News
Published August 9, 2011
A genetic mutation causes people to be born without fingerprints, a new study says.
Almost every person is born with fingerprints, and everyone's are unique. But people with a rare disease known as adermatoglyphia do not have fingerprints from birth. Affecting only four known extended families worldwide, the condition is also called immigration-delay disease, since a lack of fingerprints makes it difficult for people to cross international borders.
In an effort to find the cause of the disease, dermatologist Eli Sprecher sequenced the DNA of 16 members of one family with adermatoglyphia in Switzerland. Seven had normal fingerprints, and the other nine did not. After investigating a number of genes to find evidence of mutation, the researchers came up empty-handed—until a grad student finally found the culprit, a smaller version of a gene called SMARCAD1. (Get a genetics overview.)
The larger SMARCAD1 is expressed throughout the body, but the smaller form acts only on the skin. Sure enough, the nine family members with no fingerprints had mutations in that gene.
Being born without fingerprints doesn't occur simply because one gene has been turned on or off, Sprecher said. Rather, the mutation causes copies of the SMARCAD1 gene to be unstable.
That mutation is also the first link in a long chain of events that ultimately affects fingerprint development in the womb. The rest of the links in the chain are still a mystery, said Sprecher, of the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center.

No-Fingerprint Disease Not Harmful
Other inherited diseases that result in a lack of fingerprints—such as Naegeli syndrome and dermatopathia pigmentosa reticularis—are caused by problems with the protein keratin-14.

These conditions "manifest not only with lack of fingerprints, but also with a number of other critical features—a thickening of the skin, problems with nail formation," Sprecher said.
By contrast, immigration-delay disease doesn't come with any side effects besides a minor reduction in the ability to sweat. In general, people with the disease "are otherwise completely healthy, like you and me."
By further studying the Swiss family, Sprecher said, it might be possible to solve the mystery of fingerprints overall.
"You go from a rare disease to a biological insight of general importance," he said. "We would never have been able to get to this gene if not for the study of this family."
