In modern days, we do business via online. My fav spot is mir.com
One day, some stupid PJ bastard spamming online and claim that i'm one of helluva con man.
What the F***? I've been online business for almost 4 Years already and Im a con man? What the fark??
But anyway I've traced his IP and it seems that he has his ass in PJ ( In between of Seksyen 3 and Taman Sri Manja )

Elixir Part 9 : Avoid Car Sparks
The cause of car-door sparking is well known: contact-electrification between insulating surfaces, followed by separation of those surfaces. But what does this mean? Well, *YOU* are one surface, and THE CAR SEAT is the other. When you sit on a plastic car seat in dry weather, the contact between your clothes and the seat's surface causes the electrical charges within atoms of the material to transfer between the surfaces. This is our old friend "frictional" or "contact" charging. One surface ends up with more negative charges than positive, and has a negative charge-imbalance. The other surface has fewer negatives than positives, so it has a positive imbalance. This is nearly same thing as rubbing a balloon upon your hair: both surfaces become electrically charged. But rather than rubbing just your hair, instead you're rubbing your entire back, but, and legs upon the car seat surface.
However, nothing happens as long as you remain seated. Just keep yourself in one place and you won't get zapped.. As long as the surfaces remain near each other, the positives and negatives cancel out, and no overall "electricity" appears and no sparks are possible. But when you open the car door and step outside, you take just one polarity of charge along with you, while the car seat has the opposite polarity. At the same time, the charged-up car seat causes the whole car to become charged (by a process called "Faraday's Icepail Effect.") As you step out of the car, the voltage between your body and the car becomes huge, up to 10,000 or even 20,000 volts. Your shoes are probably insulating, so the charge has no opportunity to leak into the earth. You reach out to close the car door and ZAP!, the opposite polarities rejoin by leaping through the air while giving you a tiny, deep burn on your fingertip!
How to prevent this? One possibility: change the surface materials. Identify and avoid the specific clothing which makes the problem worse. These materials are usually wool sweaters and pants, certain manmade fabrics, plastic raincoats, etc. Or, replace your cheap plastic car seatcovers with cloth (stains easily!) or with leather (expensive dead animals.) Another method: mix up some anti-static solution and spray your car seats. This solution remains slightly damp for weeks, which halts the contact-charging process. The formula: a teaspoon of fabric softener mixed in one quart of water. This tends to work well at first, but after days it wears off and needs a re-coating. Another sillier method: always drive barefooted, so the charge will leak away when you step outside the car. Not good in winter! You could cover your car seats with a conductor such as aluminum foil, which screws up the contact-charging effect. Have a tailor make some custom clothing out of black conductive carbon cloth? Or you could eliminate the problem by eliminating your clothes. Skin is fairly conductive, so it doesn't create charge-separation when held against plastic. Driving while nude might cure the sparking problem (unless you are a very hairy person!)
A less frivilous method: the car-keys trick I mentioned earlier. Develop the habit of holding your car keys as you leave the car, then grip the keys firmly and touch the metal car door with the tip of the key. The spark will still jump, but it will not be painful, since it blasts a little hole in the tip of the key instead of in your finger. Or simply grasp the car door as you climb out, and this will drain off the charge-imbalance faster than it can build up on your body.

THE CONTROL OF BODY VOLTAGE GETTING OUT OF A CAR
1. INTRODUCTION
Many people experience shocks from 'static electricity' when they get out of their car. Usually the car is blamed. In fact, it is not that the car is that is electrostatically charged - but your own body. Electrostatic charge arises on your body from the rubbing and twisting action between your clothing and the car seat as you get out from the car. If you are at more than about 3500 volts then you are likely to feel a shock when you discharge yourself on contact with the car bodywork or earth. As it is not plausible to specify or control the clothing people wear the action to limit shock risk needs to be part of car system design.
The investigative approach pursued at John Chubb Instrumentation has started with standard car with standard seats and normal clothing. This has provided background experience with normal situations and has enabled an appropriate test procedure to be developed. Studies have then examined body voltages generated with normal clothing and seats covered by test fabrics and laminates.
Measurements have been made voltage generated on the test person when getting out of a car with various clothing and various seat coverings. Body voltages were measured continuously from before preparation to get out of car, through exit actions and while standing still on a sheet of good insulation on the ground beside the car.
Body voltages were measured with an electrostatic voltmeter connected by a length of flexible high voltage lead to a metal wrist strap on the test person initially sitting in the driver's seat. Voltages were measured up to 20kV with resolution of 10V and were recorded directly into a Notebook microcomputer with a time resolution of 1/4 second. The electrostatic voltmeter and Notebook microcomputer were positioned on the front passenger seat. This gave easy movement on exiting from the car without tangling the high voltage connection and easy opportunity to see the variation of body voltage after exiting from the car.
The three types of clothing used during testing were:
wool suit (100%)
cotton suit (100%)
nylon overall
The two cars used for testing were:
Vauxhall Cavalier (JNC)
Ford Mondeo estate (PH)
The seating surfaces used during testing were:
a) normal car seat
b) normal car seat covered by polyester fabrics that included core conductive threads (Negastat) as 5x5mm grid, as 5mm stripe and as 20mm stripe.
The ambient environmental conditions during the tests were: temperature: 10-20C, relative humidity: 40-60%. The temperature and humidity conditions at the interface between the cloting and the seating materials may, of course, have been appreciably different from these values.
The main features of the studies were:
- Observations were fairly reproducible
- If stepping from the car on to good quality insulation (with care not to slide or scuff feet on insulation) the body voltages were observed to show a fast rise to a peak and then settle back to a steady plateau. The rise time to peak voltage was about 1 second. If stepping out on to the ground then the body voltage decayed away after the peak.
- Even with natural fibre clothing (wool and cotton) quite high body voltages can arise.
Table 1 shows the results of body voltage measurements for a variety of car seat surfaces and clothing. It will be noted that individual test runs started and finished with the 'normal' seating. This was to allow checking of any progressive changes in clothing conditions during the conduct of tests. Table 2 shows results of studies with different testers with two different cars and a number of garment and car seat fabrics.

- Both with normal clothing and standard seating body voltages are often well above the threshold level of about 3,500V for shock
- Body voltages can be held below the shock threshold with alternative seat surfaces using fabrics that include a pattern of conductive threads
- The design features required for a seat fabric to give reliably low body voltages are not yet clear - or the relative importance of ?surface finish? of the seat fabric versus conducting thread characteristics.
- It is not yet clear what the mechanisms are by which the body voltage is limited. It seems likely it is corona discharging from the conductive threads in the seat surface as the contacting clothing separates.

Elixir Part 8 : Constipation
Causes of Constipation
Faulty diet and style of living
The most important causes of chronic constipation are a faulty diet and style of living.
Insufficient intake of water, strong tea and coffee etc
Intake of refined and rich foods lacking in vitamins and minerals, insufficient intake of water, consumption of meat in large quantities, excessive use of strong tea and coffee, insufficient chewing, overeating and wrong combination of foods, irregular habits of eating and drinking may all contribute to poor bowel function.
Irregular habit of defecation, lack of physical activity
Other causes include faulty and irregular habit of defecation, frequent use of purgatives, weakness of abdominal muscles due to sedentary habits, lack of physical activity, and emotional stress and strain.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Constipation treatment using Bael Fruit
Generally all fruits, except banana and jack fruit, are beneficial in the treatment of constipation. Certain fruits are, however, more effective. Bael fruit is regarded as the best of all laxatives. It cleans and tones up the intestines. Its regular use for two or three months throws out even the old accumulated faecal matter. It should be preferably taken in its original form and before dinner. About sixty grams of the fruit are sufficient for an adult.
Constipation treatment using Pear
Pears are beneficial in the treatment of constipation. Patients suffering from chronic constipation should adopt an exclusive diet of this fruit or it's juice for a few days, but in ordinary cases, a medium-sized pear taken after dinner or with breakfast will have the desired effect.
Constipation treatment using Guava
Guava is another effective remedy for constipation. When eaten with seeds, it provides roughage to the diet and helps in the normal evacuation of the bowels. One or two guavas should be taken everyday.
Constipation treatment using Grapes
Grapes have proved very beneficial in overcoming constipation. The combination of the properties of the cellulose, sugar, and organic acid in grapes make them a laxative food. Their field of action is not limited to clearing the bowels only. They also tone up the stomach and intestines and relieve the most chronic constipation. One should take at least 350 gm of this fruit daily to achieve the desired results. When fresh grapes are not available, raisins, soaked in water, can be used. Raisins should be soaked for twenty-four to forty-eight hours. This will make them swell to the original size of the grapes. They should be eaten early in the morning, along with the water in which they have been soaked.
Constipation treatment using Orange
Orange is also beneficial in the treatment of constipation. Taking one or two oranges at bedtime and again on rising in the morning is an excellent way of stimulating the bowels. The general stimulating influence of orange juice excites peristaltic activity and helps prevent the accumulation of food residue in the colon.
Constipation treatment using Papaya and Figs
Other fruits specific for constipation are papaya and figs. Half a medium-sized papaya should be eaten at breakfast for it to act as a laxative. Both fresh and dry figs have a laxative effect. Four or five dry figs should be soaked overnight in a little water and eaten in the morning.
Constipation treatment using Spinach
Among the vegetables, spinach has been considered to be the most vital food for the entire digestive tract from time immemorial. Raw spinach contains the finest organic material for the cleansing, reconstruction, and regeneration of the intestinal tract. Raw spinach juice-100 ml, mixed with an equal quantity of water and taken twice daily, will cure the most aggravated cases of constipation within a few days.
Constipation treatment using Other Remedies
Half a lime, squeezed is a glass of hot water, with half a teaspoon of salt is also an effective remedy for constipation. Drinking water which has been kept overnight in a copper vessel, first thing in the morning, brings good results. Linseed (alse) is extremely useful in difficult cases of constipation. A teaspoon of linseed swallowed with water before each meal provides both roughage and lubrication.
