[Euro 2008] Germany 0 - 1 Spain

Spain won the European Championship 1-0 over Germany. It is the first major title in 44 years. 
Fernando Torres has end up German’s 12 years of racing for a title with nothing.
Michael Ballack has became the runner up specialist …. again.
The Liverpool’s striker has made 33 goals last season. He scored the winning goal for Spain on 33 minutes :P

Germany with 3 Euro and 3 World Cups was no match for the Spaniards tonight. They’re just simply better, playing constantlt through out the tournament. I’m sad for that because I’m a GERMANY supporter :(

Anyway, congratulation Spain.
Torres, your great. Please help Liverpool to get better place this season.
Xabi, dont go!
David Villa, Anfield welcomes you :D

  • In my previous post, I wrote that I was having trouble to get ZTE MF622 work on my Leopard. Not solved yet until now. 

    Today, Derry was kindly enough to lend me his Huawei E220 HSDPA Modem. It’s Telkomsel Flash modem package but already been unlocked. So, I can use any SIM card from any available GSM operator. But unfortunately, the E220 driver for Mac from Telkomsel is not working on Leopard. So, I need to google to find the suitable driver for that.

    So, how to install Huawei E220 HSDPA USB modem on Mac OSX Leopard:

    1. Download the driver here or here (add .dmg after the file name)
      E220.dmg
    2. Extract the package file (E220.dmg) and run the file "Mobile_Connect_Drv_App.pkg"
      Run installer
    3. Follow the wizard
      Continue
    4. Read the agreement, and continue if you agree
      Agree

      Aggree

    5. Select installation destination
      Agree

      Aggree

      Password

    6. Continue Installation

  • Me and Yoga

    Just got back from yoga class. My head still lil bit dizzy, my brain need more oxygen :P As one of my year 2008 resolution ( :P ) i wanna to do more sports contantly. I have fixed schedule playing futsal every wednesday and now yoga every monday (and thursday). Jogging every monday morning.

    So what is yoga?
    Taken from about.com,

    The word yoga means "union" in Sanskrit, the language of ancient India where yoga originated. We can think of the union occurring between the mind, body and spirit.

     What is commonly referred to as "yoga" can be more accurately described by the Sanskrit word asana, which refers to the practice of physical postures or poses.

    Asana is only one of the eight "limbs" of yoga, the majority of which are more concerned with mental and spiritual well being than physical activity. In the West, however, the words asana and yoga are often used interchangeably.

  • Bowling and Forearms Tendonitis

    Tonight I’ve played bowling with Abdi and the gank :) It’s the first time I played bowling in 2008 (another resolution of 2008 :P) and the 2nd time on my life :P 1st round we played 3 games … 5 people in 2 lines :P Well not bad, i can reach above 100 points and make several strikes. 1 double.

    We had to finish the game because all the lines will be used for tournament, it’s called Fun Bowling if I’m not mistaken. Than Abdi offered us to join the tournament or not? Why not. Me, ArGun and Faisal join with Abdi and Pak Agus. Well, we’re completely beginner (specially me) with 0 handicap :P Whatever, we just want to continue to play bowling. It’s fun actually hehehehehhe. Again, 5 of us play in 2 lines.Forearm

    And it happened. It’s look like my right forearm is injured. It’s my second time playing bowling in my life, so I dont know what kind of warming up I should take before playing the game. It seemed that my first round is the cause of the injury. I played mostly with ball 11 and 12. Maybe too heavy, but I didnt feel it at the moment.

    My first swing in second round was kind of hurt. Lost my grip and I almost drop the ball 10. Arrrgghhh, i think i just had what it’s called "Forearm Tendonitis". So, 4 games in second round i mostly played with my left hand. Hey, it’s pretty good. I can used my left hand properly and made some points :P But still, I was only able to make strike with my right hand (painfully … :( ) I force to continue playing  with my right arm although it’s not a good thing to do. I was enjoying the game, what else can i say :P

    In most cases, forearm tendonitis can be cured without the need to see a doctor. All i need to do before it’s getting worse is applying R.I.C.E. treatment as soon as possible. R.I.C.E. treatment is the following:

    1. Rest - rest the forearm.
    2. Ice - apply ice to the forearm for 20 minutes at a time.
    3. Compression - apply light pressure to the forearm.
    4. Elevation - elevating the forarm will help reduce pain

     

    Well, it’s abvious that my phisical strength is now questionable hehehehhe :P I hope I don’t need to cancel my yoga class because of this :P
