Golden Ratio

Salam...
This is something related to my FYP :p My FYP title is - Biped Walking Robot. Aiyoo, i think it is possible, but but...haha :p Right now, me and my partner still not buying the component. Aigoo~how many month left already, u think i can make it? (-___-) Ok2, enough2, here is something about golden ratio.


Golden Ratio
In mathematics and the arts, two quantities are in the golden ratio if the ratio of the sum of the quantities to the larger quantity is equal to (=) the ratio of the larger quantity to the smaller one. The golden ratio is an irrational mathematical constant, approximately 1.6180339887. Other names frequently used for the golden ratio are the golden section (Latin: sectio aurea) and golden mean. Other terms encountered include extreme and mean ratio, medial section, divine proportion, divine section (Latin: sectio divina), golden proportion, golden cut, golden number, and mean of Phidias. The golden ratio is often denoted by the Greek letter phi, usually lower case (φ).

Some of the greatest mathematical minds of all ages, from Pythagoras and Euclid in ancient Greece, through the medieval Italian mathematician Leonardo of Pisa and the Renaissance astronomer Johannes Kepler, to present-day scientific figures such as Oxford physicist Roger Penrose, have spent endless hours over this simple ratio and its properties. But the fascination with the Golden Ratio is not confined just to mathematicians. Biologists, artists, musicians, historians, architects, psychologists, and even mystics have pondered and debated the basis of its ubiquity and appeal. In fact, it is probably fair to say that the Golden Ratio has inspired thinkers of all disciplines like no other number in the history of mathematics.
Mario Livio , The Golden Ratio: The Story of Phi, The World's Most Astonishing Number

Leonardo Da Vinci's 'The Vitruvian Man' approves the Golden Ratio. This drawing also called Canon of Proportions.

Fibonacci sequence approve the golden ratio.

Golden Ration in Nature and Architecture
At least since the Renaissance, many artists and architects have proportioned their works to approximate the golden ratio—especially in the form of the golden rectangle, in which the ratio of the longer side to the shorter is the golden ratio—believing this proportion to be aesthetically pleasing.

And lastly this is how Golden Ratio is related to my FYP, it is said that, human body balance is based on this calculation. Even how short or tall you is, every measurement on your body is based on Golden Ratio. Betapa Maha Hebat nya Dia - Subhanallah (^_^) With this measurement, we will apply the calculation to our robot and this will make sure that the robot is balance in term of standing and walking. InshaALLAH.

The Divine Proportion in the Body

  • The white line is the body's height.
  • The blue line, a golden section of the white line, defines the distance from the head to the finger tips.
  • The yellow line, a golden section of the blue line, defines the distance from the head to the navel and the elbows.
  • The green line, a golden section of the yellow line, defines the distance from the head to the pectorals and inside top of the arms, the width of the shoulders, the length of the forearm and the shin bone.
  • The magenta line, a golden section of the green line, defines the distance from the head to the base of the skull and the width of the abdomen. The sectioned portions of the magenta line determine the position of the nose and the hairline.
  • Although not shown, the golden section of the magenta line (also the short section of the green line) defines the width of the head and half the width of the chest and the hips.

Public Transportation Ettiquete

Alooo..seems like im becoming the real community service ambassador. Do this job exist? hahaha XD There r no such thing, but they maybe called Social Activist. Am I right? Correct me, huhuhu :)

Do u aware this advertisement :p

Have u ever ride public transportation called LRT? haha, who doesnt rite..But im not sure there r non malaysian readers here, huuuhuhuh..If u r not from Malaysia, im thankful and grateful because u read my blog,ngeehehe~

As stated in the pic,


"These seats is especially for senior citizen, pregnant woman and handicap and disable people. DO WE CARE?"

hoho..we always read this notice, but do we ever follow it? I dont think this is displayed in LRT only but also busses and trains. When LRT/Train/Bus from another place to place, the bus become crowded, and there many kind of people riding it, elder man, elder woman, pregnant woman, child, adult, teenager, husband, wife, blablabla...haha.. With many kinds of people, there will be also different kind of behaviour and unexpected.. Hoho, just read the following, hope this will help the ignorance out there, aiyak!
  1. No pushing and let the people inside go out first - Erk, i've experience whr i cannot go out because thr r many people pushing to enter the train, i cannot move forward, but pushed until the side whr the door is meant to be closed. Wht happened to me, i miss the station and only can go out after next two station..Wuuuu Wuuuu
  2. Dont gather at the door - LOL, this is happened when people think that they just riding for a while and if they stayed at the door, they can go first. But wht happened when the LRT/Trains stopped at the station, it is difficult for people to enter the LRT/Train and the door is not controlled. So, there r some people will be left behind and have to wait another LRT/Train, huhuhu (>_<)
  3. Get up for elderly - Wawawawa..this is quite annoying when seeing teenager or people that affordable to stand :p is sitting quite happily and comfortably while senior citizen is standing and try to balance so that they will not fall down.
  4. Get up for pregnant woman - Erm..the woman maybe mid 20, but she is pregnant woman. There r many reason why she should get the seat. Hoi ignorance people out thr, if she standing comfortably on her feet, doesnt mean u should leave her as she is, but you should, i mean must give her the seat. So that she doesn't need to be jostled all over the place as the train moves.
  5. Get up for the handicapped/disabled - Heh, this is obvious huh. If u still didnt offer the seat, u r devil man..i mean it bro, really..
  6. Get up for small children - Yup2, of course we should give the children the seat cause they not be able to stand properly as the bus moves because they cannot holding the holder (is this its name, i dont knw, it is the hanging one on the LRT/Train/Bus so people that standing can hold it)
  7. Wear deodorant - Haha, i found this one on the internet. Its true tho..haha..and you're likely to annoy everyone in close proximity if you don't. If, for some reason, you can't wear deodorant, make sure you get a seat and don't wind up holding the railing with your armpit in someone's face. LOL :D
Situation 1
There are elderly enter the train, with her is plastic bag with vegetable and some
barang dapur, seem like heavy yea..and at the seat, all the teenager. Some of them are talking to each other and they seem didnt realize the older is standing holding her things. Some of them are listening to their mp3 and some of them sleeping (maybe fake sleeping,haha :p) DO THEY CARE?

Situation 2

Still the senior citizen entering the train, but not the same citizen in the situation 1, haha :p at the seat, there are different kind of people but wht caught my eyes is a student, i think secondary school student (Sek Ren = secondary school kan? Primary = Sek Men kan? Im confuse,haha..but the boy is Sek Ren because his trousers is dark blue,haha). And then the teenager next to the him scolding him with loud voice to give the seat to the senior citizen. And wht do u think? Is this a good practice?


haha..I think this is ...wait for it :p ....not a good practice. Why? because the student bringing his big bag, yea really big, student these days are carrying stone to school :p And this is not appropriate to him to stand with his big bag and books cause he may fall down. Who should give the sit? Aaaaaa, the man who scolded the boy, but that is not happening because he is sitting next to his girlfriend. What a loser (>_<)
DO HE CARE?

Hoho..this is my experience for riding the public transportation till today. Such things always happened around us. Maybe worse but we just didnt realize it yet. Hehe, last but no least..


"DO WE CARE?"

P/S : I do care, but my english is becoming really bad huh? (-_-)

link to recall :)


Hehe..this picture is taken at the cashier section..i know u know, just wnt to tell u,haha :D

Hehe..found it here already..this picture is taken at Giant Batu Caves, im sure every single one of whr is that :p Miri have done it already, but it held on

HARMFUL EFFECTS OF PLASTIC BAG ON ENVIRONMENT
  • Plastic bags litter the landscape. - Each year more and more plastic bags are ending up littering the environment. Once they become litter, plastic bags find their way into our waterways, parks, beaches, and streets. And, if they are burned, they infuse the air with toxic fumes.
  • Plastic bags kill animals. - About 100,000 animals such as dolphins, turtles whales, penguins are killed every year due to plastic bags. Many animals ingest plastic bags, mistaking them for food, and therefore die. And worse, the ingested plastic bag remains intact even after the death and decomposition of the animal.
  • Plastic bags are non-biodegradable. - And one of the worst environmental effects of plastic bags is that they are non-biodegradable. The decomposition of plastic bags takes about 1000 years
  • Petroleum is required to produce plastic bags. - As it is, petroleum products are diminishing and getting more expensive by the day, since we have been using this non-renewable resource increasingly. Petroleum is vital for our modern way of life. It is necessary for our energy requirements – for our factories, transport, heating, lighting, and so on. Without viable alternative sources of energy yet on the horizon, if the supply of petroleum were to be turned off, it would lead to practically the whole world grinding to a halt. Surely, this precious resource should not be wasted on producing plastic bags, should it?
VARIOUS ALTERNATIVE TO PLASTIC BAGS
  1. Use biodegradable bags made from fabrics.
  2. Ladies can fold a cotton bag or two in to their purses which can be used to quench their sudden urge for shopping.
  3. Nylon bags can be used and reused several times.
  4. Donate old news papers and magazines to small scale institutes that cut these old papers in to paper bags and packets.
  5. Use a wicker basket. (They can make a fashion statement today.)
  6. Educate the local retailers on the ill effects of use of plastics. (This is wht we done,hehe :))
  7. Insist your local retailers to use plastic bags of thicker variety if at all he has to use.
This is ekjample of biodegradable bag in case u didn't know :p hohoho

Hehe, this is my biodegradable bag, but i dont use it to Giant or any market :p My mom gave me this bag for me to carry my CPU everytime semester break :)

"LET'S GO GREEN!"


P/S : Am I good citizen? Im not sure, huhuhuhu :(

Aku dan ...

Satu malam yang indah..agak lewat malam..aku bergegas ke kiosk faruq, mahu membeli sos yang hendak di makan dengan mix yang aku bli kt ali..dekat kiosk ali dan siddiq aku tidak menjumpai sos kimball, sbb tu aku pgi smpi faruq, tp malang tiada juga sos sedemikian di faruq.aku bli sahaja yang ada, aku sudah malas mahu ke sana ke mari lagi.sambil2 itu, aku mencari majalah ujang kerana aku rasa kiosk ini sahaja yang pernah menjual benda sedemikian.

(Cerita ini memang kena mengena dengan yang hidup iaitu aku dan abg kiosk faruq, yang mati memang tiada kena mengena langsung, sekian)


A : Bos, ujang abis suda ka?


B : Yaa...Yaa...Yaa...

A : APO? tidak ada jugak ka?

B : Yaa...Yaa...Yaa...

A : Oo..ok2..bos, mna paper hari ini? Abis suda ka?

B : Yaa...Yaa...Yaa...

A : Laa..slalu saya tgk ada saja paper tggl..

B : Yaa...Yaa...Yaa...

A : Bos, air ni harga bpa (aku mengangkat utk menunjuk kn botol air itu)

B : Yaa...Yaa...Yaa...

A : Eh2..bos, ini air brapa harga?

B : Yaa...Yaa...Yaa...

A : Aih?? (Aku mula pening, kenapa abg kiosk ini asyik yayayayayayaya sahaja dari tadi,aaa~). Xpa la bos (Aku pun bayar sahaja lah barang yang aku beli tadi)..Bos, kiosk ini ttup pkul bpa ah? (Sambil menunjuk ke arah jam)

B : Ah..Ah (Syukur..jwpn dia bkn lagi yayayayayaya, akn tetapi, apa yg dia jawab itu? aku musykil lagi)

A : Saya tanya, kiosk ini ttup pkul bpa?

B : Ah..Ah..(dia menunjuk isyarat tidak faham)

A : Tutup pkul bpa? (Sambil isyarat tgn aku tnjuk pintu ttup)

B : I dont understand u, speak english please.

A : Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa? (Apsal x ckp awl2..btapa pjg nya dialog aku ngn dia,huh)...Nevermind...nevermind...


Lebih kurang sebegini, aku tidak pasti dia melayu ataupun india..akan tetapi, jika beliau di dalam gambar di atas itu tidak memakai apron, pasti anda pun tidak pasti bahawa beliau melayu atau pun tidak bukan? ngeee~Untuk informasi anda (FYI), beliau diatas bukan la abg kiosk itu, mungkin dia penjual roti canai atau pelayan di kedai mamak.


LOL..tension juga aku rasa..lama juga aku cakap2 dengan brader kiosk itu (itupun kira cakap2 ka? XD ). Tapi malangnya komunikasi kami tak berkesan :D Tp seriously, aku mmg tidak menjangka kn dia tidak bole bercakap bahasa melayu, fasih pun jauh sekali, slalunya aku menjumpai org sedemikian akn tetapi mereka agak fasih juga berbahasa melayu..tp muka dia juga aku amat tidak menjangka kn bahawa dia org bkn malaysia..seperti org2 india sini2 juga~adoi adoi adoi

P/S : Serius, aku ingt dia boleh berbahasa melayu, apa yang aku nmpk ms itu pun aku tidak pasti, tp aku pasti aku rs dia bole bercakap bahasa melayu..hahaha :D

This is dimiss or what??

Haloo evrybody..hehe..

Why Im talking abt this, because Im the student of this university too - International Islamic University Malaysia :p It is too much because i admit im from this uni? :p But im study different course from his/her son, Im Engineer InshaAllah :)

Click the image to zoom ( if u cannot read la..) or click the link

THE PROS


"sepatutnya saya sebagai penjaga diberitahu terlebih dulu masalah yang anak saya hadapi."

1. This guy is right, they should inform their parents regarding their son.

"Saya terus bergegas ke UIA untuk bertemu dekan setelah membuat temujanji."

2. Its good to act fastly as this guy done, go directly to the management.

"Saya tidak mempertikaikan kelemahan anak saya tetapi mempertikaikan apa yang pihak kulliyah lakukan bagi membantu pelajarnya untuk berjaya."

3. Good2..Seems like he/she accepting the system :)

"Perjumpaan dengan pelajar akan direkodkan dan pelajar perlu menandatangani penerimaan surat amaran atau teguran itu dan salinannya akan dihantar kepada penjaga"

4. Yeah, thats true :) Again..

THE CONTRAS

"Saya juga mempertikaikan peranan penasihat akademik yang dilantik dalam menangani masalah pelajar bawah seliaannya."

1. Erk, I dunno wht this mean..under supervision? This exist ah? or his/her son's lecturer? LOL XD

"Lebih memeranjatkan apabila diberitahu anak saya bahawa penasihat akademiknya tidak pernah memanggilnya untuk membincangkan sebarang isu,"

2. Haha..Do lecturer need to call every of his/her student..Of course the student should meet the lecturer himself/herself :D lagipun, there are thousands uia student LOL XD

"tetapi apa yang berlaku ialah sehingga tahun tiga barulah pihak universiti sedar bahawa anak saya tidak layak untuk meneruskan pengajiannya."

3. This is university bro..do we need to depend all to the university? uhuhuh..i thought when we entering university, we had to do everything by ourself..independence aah.. (Is this the right spelling of berdikari? haha :D)

"Namun ini tidak pernah berlaku di UIA, pihak UIA dengan mudah membuat keputusan tanpa sebarang amaran."

4. Erk..what do u mean dgn mudah? (>_<) Haha..typical malaysian..blaming the others..yeah2 :p

THE CONCLUSION

Haha..most of all, the student need to confess to the parents..If not, this would not happened. Just tell ur parent if u r in critical condition, u really need help bro, huhu :( yeah2, meet the lecturer early to discuss the problem, not when only after we are failing or the midterm or final exm is in the corner..(sound like me..LOL :p) i hope this matter already settled

P/S : hohoho..am i giving advice? LOLOLOL XD

Mafia Wars

Salam everybody..hehe

Hehe..I think everyone own facebook these days. People who do not own one maybe too bz with his life or doesnt have time to surf the internet or maybe dislikes internet or maybe lame..LOL XD

Haha, recently, not recently thou, haha..i am playing Mafia Wars, one the application in the facebook or so-called games :p felt like i am really addict to it..i dont know, maybe it is just a feeling~

Haha. This is Interface of my Mafia Wars, hoho

Hehe, i dont think i am the only one who playing this game like crazy, some of my friend did :p However, i just dont like to play this game at first, just click here, click there, hahaha..some kind of nonsense, same feeling while playing Football Manager by Sport Interactive, but this one is really simple one, no animation at all.

Hehe, remember this? Cant take off your mind aite? aite..aite? :p

Eh2, there is animation, for people who play this game, the know what it is, the loading animation, hahaha, do you people always looking at this? Maybe it is hallucination that shout to your mind - " go play Mafia Wars every hours, every seconds, every nanoseconds, every time!" - cause its seems the times is crucial for this games.

Why crucial eh? Because if we want to recover energy need times, no energy cant do jobs, to recover stamina also needs time, no stamina cant attack people = enemy :p And collecting money from properties also, need time..haha..


Tick Tock Tick Tock...29 Seconds Left...ahahaha

TRIVIA MAFIA WARS
  • Mafia Wars is a multiplayer browser game created by Zynga. It was the 2009 Webby Award People's Voice Winner in the Games category.
  • Mafia Wars is available on Facebook, MySpace, Tagged, Sonico, and Yahoo!. On April 8, 2009, Zynga released a version of the game as a free downloadable iPhone App. (Haiyo, so many platform oo :D )
  • The makers of a similar online game, Mob Wars, sued Zynga over their launch of Mafia Wars, accusing Zynga of copyright infringement. Zynga made some changes to Mafia Wars so it wouldn't resemble Mob Wars as closely, but Mob Wars creator David Maestri moved forward with his lawsuit. In September 2009, Maestri and Zynga settled the case for about $7–$9 million, less than the $10 million Maestri had originally demanded.

P/S : Actually, addicted of many application games in facebook :p

TRIVIA OF BURJ KHALIFA

The Height
  • The towers's spire is visible from 6 miles away and you can see Iran (50 miles away) from the 124th floor observation deck which is open to public
  • This building is so tall that the temp at the top is 10c cooler than at the bottom
The Interior
  • Restaurant is on the 122nd floor, gym on the 123rd floor and a nightclub (wht the heck dubai) on the 143rd. Offices soars up to the 160th floor. There are plans for a mosque on the 158th (what?! only plan? LOL, nightclub already have)

  • It has been designed to sway up to 6ft in high winds. The sun's heat makes it lean as much as 3ft as the metal expands and contract.
  • The rods that reinforced the structure weight 31400 tons. Laid end to end they would stretch more than a quarter of the way around the world.
  • The external surface is the size of 17 football fields..Haiyo!
