Arak~

Info for Muslims~

ARAK
DAN STATISTIK KEBURUKANNYA


Sebelum saya
menghuraikan secara ringkas jawapan bagi persoalan Tun Dr Mahathir, izinkan saya
meningingatkan pembaca berkenaan arak dan statistik keburukannya, sehingga
menyebabkan Islam begitu bersungguh melarang dan meletakkan undang-undang ke
atas peminumnya juga. Ia sebenarnya tidak lain kecuali untuk mengutamakan
keadilan umum, di atas hak individu.

Menurut statistik
rasmi di United Kingdom, Alcohol-related crime adalah seperti berikut :-
* Hampir 45 - 46 %
kejadian jenayah, mangsa meyakini bahawa penyerangnya di bawah pengaruh alkohol
(arak).
* Angka tadi naik
kepada 58% dalam kes serangan oleh individu yang tidak dikenali.
* 39% keganasan dalam
rumahtangga melibatkan alkohol (arak)


Sebenarnya,
membenarkan penjualan arak adalah satu pencabulan hak bagi majoriti masyarakat
Malaysia yang lain, kerana ia mendedahkan individu lain dalam keadaan bahaya
sebagaimana yang berlaku di UK, Russia dan lain-lain negara aktif arak.

The top 55 web designers in the world

So you’re looking for a reliable, talented web designer? You’re wanting someone who is on the cusp of all the latest web trends? You’re looking for a web design which is worth the valuable money that you intend to pay? — I asked myself each of these questions. Tired of being less-than-thrilled with my experiences with web design firms I’ve used in the past, I set myself on a mission to find the best of the best.

1. Superior design.
2. Clean design.
3. Great UI (User Interface) for ease of navigation.
4. Use of CSS and web standards.
5. Utilizes CMS backend architecture. (Content Management System - ala, Wordpress, Expression Engine, Joomla, or other)
6. Good portfolio.
7. Freelancer or very small firm. (lower overhead, lower prices) :-)
8. PHP, Ajax, Ruby on Rails, mySQL, and CMS plugin knowledge were a plus.
9. Eat their own dogfood. (their own website had to look just as good as I hoped my site to become)

A Model of The Creative Process

such a good reading for designers ( a must reading)

A Model of The Creative Process

Concept Map: A Model of The Creative Process
Created in collaboration with Jack Chung, Shelley Evenson, and Paul Pangaro.

The creative process is not just iterative; it’s also recursive. It plays out “in the large” and “in the small”—in defining the broadest goals and concepts and refining the smallest details. It branches like a tree, and each choice has ramifications, which may not be known in advance. Recursion also suggests a procedure that “calls” or includes itself. Many engineers define the design process as a recursive function:
discover > define > design > develop > deploy
