IBU bekerja... baik atau BURUK?

ada yang mengatakan ibu lebih menyanyangi anak kerana naluri wanita yang lemah lembut dan mudah tersentuh...
namun dewasa kini,golongan ibu kebanyakanya berpelajaran dan bekerja
kadangkala lebih sibuk dr si bapa
keluar pagi n balik malam, menyebabkan anak2 sukar untuk bersua muka dengan ibu berbanding bapa
kita juga dapat melihat bapa zaman kini sudah mula berdamping dengan anak-anak dan kadangkala anak-anak lebih sayangkan bapa dari ibu mereka.
ke manakah perginya kaum ibu?
adakah mencari rezeki lebih penting dr meluangkan masa dengan anak2?
apakah utuh satu institusi keluarga jika IBU menyerahkan tugasnya kepada ORG GAJI atau BIBIK?
siapakah yang lebih di sanyangi anak? IBU atau BIBIK?
apa yang akan terjadi kepada anak milleneum ini?
PIKIRKAN

yang penting.. BAPA MEMANG BEST

IBUMU!!!!!

Ibumu Yang Tercantik Sekali

"Nurse, boleh saya tengok bayi saya?" ibu muda yang baru bersalin itu bersuara antara dengar dan tidak kepada seorang jururawat.

Sambil tersenyum jururawat membawakan bayi yang masih merah itu. Si ibu menyambut dengan senyum meleret. Dibuka selimut yang menutup wajah comel itu, diciumnya berkali-kali sebaik bayi tersebut berada dipangkuan.

Jururawat kemudian mengalihkan pandangannya ke luar tingkap. Tidak sanggup dia bertentang mata dengan si ibu yang terperanjat melihat bayinya dilahirkan tanpa kedua-dua cuping telinga.

Namun gamamnya cuma seketika. Dakapan dan ciuman silih berganti sehingga bayi yang sedang lena itu merengek. Doktor bagaimanapun mengesahkan pendengaran bayi itu nor! mal, sesuatu yang cukup mengembirakan si ibu.

Masa terus berlalu…

Pulang dari sekolah suatu tengahari, anak yang tiada cuping telinga itu yang kini telah memasuki alam persekolahan menangis memberitahu bagaimana dia diejek rakan-rakan. "Mereka kata saya cacat," katanya kepada si ibu.

Si ibu menahan sebak. Dipujuknya si anak dengan pelbagai kata semangat. Si anak menerimanya dan dia muncul pelajar cemerlang dengan menyandang pelbagai jawatan di sekolah. Bagaimanapun tanpa cuping telinga, si anak tetap merasa rendah diri walaupun si ibu terus memujuk dan memujuk. Ayah kanak-kanak itu bertemu doktor. "Saya yakin dapat melakukannya jika ada penderma," kata pakar bedah. Bermulalah suatu pencarian bagi mencari penderma yang sanggup berkorban.

Setahun berlalu…

"Anakku, kita akan menemui doktor hujung minggu ini. Ibu dan ayah telah mendapatkan seorang penderma, tapi dia mahu dirinya dirahsiakan, " kata si ayah. Pembedahan berjalan lancar dan akhirnya si anak muncul sebagai manusia baru, kacak serta bijak. Pelajarannya tambah cemerlang dan rasa rendah diri yang kerap dialaminya hilang.

Rakan-rakan memuji kecantikan parasnya. Si anak cukup seronok, bagaimanapun dia tidak mengabaikan pelajaran. Pada usianya lewat 20-an, si anak menjawat jawatan tinggi dalam bidang diplomatik.

"Sebelum saya berangkat keluar negara, saya ingin tahu siapakah penderma telinga ini, saya ingin membalas jasanya," kata si anak berkali-kali.

"Tak mungkin," balas si ayah. "Perjanjian antara ayah dengan penderma itu masih berjalan. Tunggulah, masanya akan tiba." "Bila?" tanya si anak.

"Akan tiba masanya anakku," balas si ayah sambil ibunya mengangguk-angguk. Keadaan terus kekal menjadi rahsia bertahun-tahun lamanya.

Hari yang ditunggu tiba akhirnya. Ketika si anak berdiri di sisi keranda ibunya, perlahan-lahan si ayah menyelak rambut ibuny! a yang kaku.

Gelap seketika pandangan si anak apabila melihat kedua-dua cuping telinga ibunya tiada.

"Ibumu tidak pernah memotong pendek rambutnya," si ayah berbisik ke telinga anaknya. "Tetapi tiada siapa pernah mengatakan ibumu cacat, dia tetap cantik, pada ayah dia satu-satunya wanita paling cantik yang pernah ayah temui. Tak percaya… tanyalah pada sesiapa pun kenalannya."

Moral:

Kecantikan seseorang bukan terletak pada fizikal tetapi di hati. Cinta sejati bukan pada apa yang dilakukan dan dihebah-hebahkan tetapi pengorbanan tanpa diketahui.

Selagi ibu kita ada didunia ini, ciumlah dia, cium tangannya, sentiasa minta ampun darinya, berikan senyuman kepadanya, bukannya dengan bermasam muka, kasih ibu tiada tandingannya, ingatlah "SYURGA DI BAWAH TELAPAK KAKI IBU", penyesalan di kemudian hari tidak berguna, selagi hayatnya ada,curahkanlah sepenuh kasih sayang kepadanya..

Major stock market indexes fall to 1997 levels

NEW YORK – Wall Street has turned the clock back to 1997. Investors unable to extinguish their worries about a recession that has no end in sight dumped stocks again Monday. The Dow Jones industrial average tumbled 251 points to its lowest close since Oct. 28, 1997, while the Standard & Poor's 500 index logged its lowest finish since April 11, 1997.

All the major indexes slid more than 3 percent. The Dow is just over 100 points from 7,000.

"People left and right are throwing in the towel," said Keith Springer, president of Capital Financial Advisory Services.

Investors pounded most financial stocks even as government agencies led by the Treasury Department said they would launch a revamped bank rescue program this week. The plan includes the option of increasing government ownership in financial institutions without having to pour more taxpayer money into them.

Although the government has said it doesn't want to nationalize banks, many investors are clearly still concerned that this could be a possibility as banks continue to suffer severe losses because of the recession. They're also worried that banks' losses will keep escalating as the recession sends more borrowers into default.

"The biggest thing I see here is the incredible pessimism," Springer said. "The government is doing a lousy job of alleviating fears."

The Treasury and other agencies issued a statement after The Wall Street Journal reported that Citigroup is in talks for the government to boost its stake in the bank to as much as 40 percent. Analysts said the market, which initially rose on the statement, wanted more details of the government's plans.

"It's only a very partial picture of what we may get," said Quincy Krosby, chief investment strategist at The Hartford. "This proverbial lack of clarity is damaging market psychology."

Meanwhile, technology stocks fell after The Journal reported that Yahoo Inc.'s new chief executive plans to reorganize the company. But the selling came across the market as pessimism about the recession and its toll on companies deepened.

"There's no where to hide anymore," said Jim Herrick, director of equity trading at Baird & Co.

The market's decline extends massive losses from last week when the major stock indexes tumbled more than 6 percent. The major indexes plunged through the lows they reached in late November, at the height of the credit crisis.

"There's no main driver of the down day," said Ryan Detrick, senior technical strategist at Schaeffer's Investment Research. "There's just so much skepticism in the overall market and (the question is) is the government doing proper things to get us out of this problem. Obviously the stock market is voting no."

According to preliminary calculations, the Dow dropped 250.89, or 3.41 percent, to 7,114.78. It last closed this low on Oct. 28, 1997 when it finished at 6,971.32. The Dow hasn't traded below the 7,000 mark since October 1997.

The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell 26.72, or 3.47 percent, to 743.33. It was the lowest close since April 11, 1997, when it ended at 737.65.

The technology-laden Nasdaq composite index dropped 53.51, or 3.71 percent, to 1,387.72.

The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies fell 16.38 or 3.99 percent, to 394.58.

Declining issues outnumbered advancers by more than 6 to 1 on the New York Stock Exchange, where volume came to 1.61 billion shares compared with heavy volume of 2.12 billion shares on Friday.

Among tech stocks, Hewlett-Packard Co. fell $1.96, or 6.3 percent, to $29.28, and Intel Corp. dove 70 cents, or 5.5 percent, to $12.08.

Other big decliners included General Electric Co., which dropped to a 14-year low of $8.80, but ended down 53 cents, or 5.7 percent, at $8.85. Aluminum producer Alcoa Inc. tumbled 48 cents, or 7.6 percent, to $5.81.

Some financial stocks managed to gain, including Citigroup, which rose 19 cents, or 9.7 percent, to $2.14, and Bank of America Corp., which gained 12 cents, or 3.2 percent, to $3.91.

Bond prices were mixed. The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite its price, fell to 2.77 percent from 2.79 percent late Friday. The yield on the three-month T-bill, considered one of the safest investments, rose to 0.28 percent from 0.26 percent Friday.

The dollar was mixed against other major currencies, while gold prices fell.

Light, sweet crude fell $1.59 to settle at $38.44 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Overseas, Britain's FTSE 100 fell 0.99 percent, Germany's DAX index fell 1.95 percent, and France's CAC-40 slipped 0.82 percent. Earlier, Japan's Nikkei stock average fell 0.54 percent

A smart slider(3g phone)

Sony Ericsson blurs the line between a full-featured smartphone and a basic phone and comes away with positive results.

By TAN KIT HOONG

CYBER-SHOT: The C905 slider phone has a gorgeous screen and an 8.1-megapixel digicam.

IT IS interesting to note how Malaysian and American phone users differ — while Americans tend to think of phones as an extension of a PC and demand e-mail and a Qwerty keyboard, Malaysians (and most of the world) treat the phone as a voice and SMS-centric device, making the Qwerty keyboard less of a necessity.

It also helps that the rest of the world seem to be able to use the alphanumeric keypad and T9 input a lot better.

Anyway the reason for this short rant/observation is that these days I’ve come to realise that having a phone that responds fast to things I mostly do on it — i.e. SMS, voice calling and a bit of light surfing — is way more important than having a feature-packed phone that’s slow to respond and is hard to access the most common tasks.

Enter the Sony Ericsson C905 slider phone, which certainly blurs the line between a full-featured smartphone which does everything and a basic phone with a less extensible operating system.

In terms of hardware, the C905 has everything most smartphones come with these days — support for HSDPA, Bluetooth, GPS and even WiFi, together with the applications that take advantage of the hardware.

On top of that, the C905 is also a Cyber-shot branded Sony Ericsson phone and comes with a whopping 8.1-megapixel autofocus digicam with a Xenon flash built in.

SLIDE OVER: The nifty sliding mechanism of the Sony Ericsson C905 always sits flush with the rest of the phone’s body, minimising the chances of the cover catching against something in your pocket.

When you consider just what Sony Ericsson has managed to pack in, it’s actually relatively small compared to most of the competition, and as you’ll soon see, this phone has a few little tricks up its sleeve as well.

The package

The C905 has quite a number of accessories packed into the box. Apart from the phone, charger and ubiquitous wired headset, you get a USB sync cable and a USB card ­reader for the Memory Stick Micro card.

All in all, a pretty good bundle.

Aesthically-speaking, this phone isn’t bad looking at all, and in fact, Sony Ericsson have fixed a number of problems I had with earlier models like the K800 and the K810.

Most notably, the camera’s lens cover has a very nifty sliding ­mechanism which keeps the cover flush with the rest of the body, preventing any edges from getting caught on your pants and ­inadvertently sliding open the cover as you put it into your pocket.

In all the time I had it for review, the cover never once opened ­accidentally and took pictures of the inside of my pocket as the K800 often did when I tested it.

The slider design is a matter of preference of course, and although I prefer candy bar style phones, I got used to the C905 after a couple of days of using it.

What I wasn’t too happy about is that the alphanumeric keys are a completely flat membrane type, with no separation between adjacent keys ­­­­­— now, I have pretty small fingers, and even so, I found that I still occasionally pressed the wrong key when typing out a few quick messages.

I generally found the buttons a lot easier to press if I use my fingernail instead of the ball of my thumb, but even then, it would have been better if Sony Ericsson had made a little groove for your nail for each key.

On the upside, the buttons on the side of the phone (volume, play, photo/video selector and shutter button) are very well placed, with lit shortcuts on the front for various photo-related functions when in digicam mode.

Turn on the phone and you’ll get a truly beautiful 2.5in screen with truly exceptional colour and contrast.

Phone features

As far as the phone functions go, the C905 is no slouch and comes with everything you’d expect from a high-end phone — HSDPA, UMTS 2100, quad-band GSM and of course support for Bluetooth headsets, etc.

Call quality was good and the speakerphone function is louder and clearer than on my now aging K618i.

The C905 is a reasonably fast phone in terms of menu response — it’s not the fastest, but certainly faster than on smartphones with true operating systems. Response times are quite ­satisfactory to me and require only one or two button clicks to get to the SMS application or call and contact lists.

Battery life with WiFi turned off will typically be about a full day or a day and a half if you’re not a heavy phone user. However, with WiFi turned on, battery life really suffers, and you get about a day if you leave WiFi on, or less than that if you surf a lot.

Extras

As I mentioned before, one thing that the C905 is not lacking is in hardware features and this deserves quite a bit of looking at.

First off, the C905 has built-in A-GPS that comes with both Google Mapsand a trial version of Wayfinder Navigatorwhich offers voice turn-by-turn navigation.

It’s again sad that Sony Ericsson, like Nokia, doesn’t just bundle the full version of the navigation ­software and maps together with the phone as it would mean that you could really take full advantage of the GPS right out of the box.

Having said that, Google Maps is not too shabby and now does offer routing as well, although without voice navigation.

Next up is WiFi — on the ­hardware front, the WiFi on the phone works extremely well and seamlessly ­transfers between WiFi hotspots and 3G/HSDPA when you’re surfing.

The NetFront browser comes bundled with the phone and works just fine, although if you want a more full-featured browser that displays webpages as it should look, you can try downloading the free Opera Minifrom mini.opera.com.

However, that’s not all that the WiFi allows you to do — the phone is actually DLNA certified, which means that once you’re connected to your home WiFi network, other DLNA devices like the Sony PlayStation3 for example, will see the phone as a media server and be able to play photos, music and ­videos right on the PS3.

I don’t own a PS3, but from what I can ascertain from the phone’s menus, the setup is pretty ­straightforward.

That’s not all, the C905 even comes with SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) settings, which means you can also set up and initiate VoIP calls — quite a geek thing that ­probably won’t be used by the ­typical C905 buyer, but certainly could save you loads of money making calls over the regular phone network if you know how to set it up.

Like every generation of Sony Ericsson phones, there are a number of small changes to the interface, and the C905 is no exception.

The most major change in the phone is that the multimedia browser now looks much like the interface of the PlayStation3 — it’s pretty easy to use, but does look quite different from the rest of the interface.

Oh yes, the phone also comes with an orientation sensor built in which works with supported ­applications — the browser, for instance, will ­automatically go into landscape mode when you turn it on its side.

The digicam

The C905 produces perfectly usable pictures and is actually not bad for a phone, although as expected, ­cramming 8.1-million pixels into a sensor smaller than your thumbnail produces an image with a lot of obvious noise reduction.

While I would have liked more control of the ISO settings, the camera itself does automatically increase the ISO when shooting in low light conditions.

The Xenon flash works well and exposures were generally spot on when the flash is on.

Conclusion

Although there was an initial period of getting used to the very flat buttons, I actually really liked the Sony Ericsson C905.

Despite the camera’s multitude of functions, the all-important phone features functioned smoothly and were very easy to get to — this doesn’t sound like much until you consider just how difficult it is to get to a simple thing like SMS or MMS in some other smartphones with more full-featured operating systems.

The other feature I was really happy about was the addition of WiFi — you may not notice the switchover when you’re browsing and connect to a WiFi hotspot, but your wallet will certainly feel the difference if you’re a person who likes to surf on your mobile phone a lot.

As for GPS and the 8.1-megapixel camera well that’s just the icing on the cake.

Pros: Feature-packed phone; reasonable price.

Cons: Buttons are a little too flat for fast typing.
