Irony

Finally a this happened, YES! my subconcious had been wishing and praying for that to happen for quite some time as my mood was lifted immediately upon reading this.

Imagine what goes in the announcement:
"...ladies and gentlemen please note that all electronic equipment, players and mobile phones are to be switched off during the whole duration of the flight..bla bla....."

and then..

"..good morning passengers this is the captain speaking and would like to apologise for the flight delay...because i lost my mobile phone in the plane...i forgot to switch it off..."

Mammography

Came on this picture while working


this image shows a mammography process. one day most most of u gals out day will have to do it. it is designed to scan ur boobies, and expert view this scan to check for breast cancer.

most people call this CAT scan, basically its a x-ray scan with greater range to give a 3D image and 'slices' at different 'depth'.

the latest technology in computer intelligence (what my dissertation is on, although its not mainly on breast cancer) can automatically detect where the lesions and clusters are and point them out so experts can have a easier time making decision (saves 80% of missed cases, missed casses stands at around 20% of diagnosis). these A.I. can detect very early forms of cancers and some even determines whehter it is harmless or otherwise, although the decision is for the radiologist/doctor to make. this alones save even more lifes on this over populated world.

the reason i write about this thing is not to raise awareness or any of those c**p.

the main question is this:notice the picture at how the breast is scan? placed on a tray and pressed and scanned...i was wondering whether girls with smalle A-cup boobies...how can they put 'it' on that thing????

L.O.S.T

Try watching Lost and u will want to know what the heck is it all about, all the strange things makes u theorise quite a lot for an explanation.

someone offer a great explanation, click here for a brief one, and here for a expanded one.

pro and cons of a Pilot

Every boy wants to be a pilot.

One of the reasons i studied engineering is because I like planes, and i don't have any problems staying 24/7 inside an airport, i really like it. i've stayed in 4 airports overnight and i always like the experience, it'll be even greater if i can fly one of those bad boys.

so can i be physically be a pilot?
I checked out this site thru google (another of my many adventures while trying to do my project)

i'm near-sighted, currently my prescription stands at
Right -3.00 Left -4.25
this forum says its ok as long as it can be corrected (spectacles)

i need to be at least 5ft 4in tall, i'm...let me see...2cm short of 6ft, phew.

i'm an engineering student, so that means i am in the forefront of competition if i apply to be one.

British Airways have a program that i can train and if possible serve with BA in the future, with a contract of 5 years to repay it.

there are other options, like msia airlines that gives the same thing, with 15 years.

should i go for it? i'm stuck, i like to fly one of the planes...really do.

and the all important question...the WAGES~ and the PERKS~

WAGES~~$183,000 per annum (luftansa), or roughly £83,000 as a captain, which is achievable after 2~5 years after graduating from flight school. but normally other smaller airlines seems to offer about $60,000 per annum, still not bad...

PERKS~walk like a VIP anywhere in the airport wearing great uniform that people just admires...and become a guy's guy, guys like pilots! and girls too~especially the hostess :p. i also get to see alot of countries FREE! yahoo!

NOT SO GOOD SIDE~~flying everyday~fly fly fly~~which means a pilot's personal life wil most probably be thrown in tantrums...my poor family and girlfren will miss me alot...unless they fly with me too...sadly pilots have a high rate of divorce...also greenpeace people will give pilots a hard time (if they ever ran into one)...flying a plane...costs (provide may be the better word) the earth the amount of carbon dioxide of a normal urban car for 2 years, warming the globe at a faster pace~

should i shouldn't i...

Flower~~~Sss~~

browsing some blogs i see pictures of flowers and seas and girls and boys....and some no-meaning caption.

in order to understand the reasoning and rationale and...watever that motivates these actions, let's post some too.

let's see, flowers....this was taken 1 year ago (i'm lazy to go out to take new ones, its cold) and...
and yeah, the famous swansea bay where somewhere to the right (not in picture) is a main pipes where the industry dumps water back to mother nature, so we wont swim there.

and finally some people....its actually adam and god painted by michaagelo on the ceilign of sistine chapel (quite a small dick, agree?)

The benefits of frustration (prelude)

boring boring boring

first of all, what the FUCK is a mechanical engineering course have to do with computational programming in MEDICAL FIELD?? "computer aided medical diagnosis" as a dissertation???

its bloody hard to try to do all the work of a computer science bachelor degree in a month! WAKE UP SWANSEA UNI, u BLOODY blood sucking bloody uni!!!

now is that how i should behave?

its just frustration, i guess this course really gv me more than my fair share of a miserable future career as a mechanical engineer.

now i realise how hard it is to motivate oneself to do something that really really isn't of any interest watsoever. may this stupid dissertation be finished quickly and as painless (already painful) as possible and let the bliss of nothing-to-do-ness of post-hand-up-work times begins...
