House near to Primary School

Many couples who buy house do not consider whether the house is within 1km to the nearest Primary School. It is an important criteria especially for couples who plan to start a family. It is only when I was enrolling my daughter for her Primary School that I realise how important it was.

My house was within 1km radius of her primary school. It was lucky that she got a position after going through the balloting. In this case, all applicants outside 1km of the school were disqualify. The unsuccessful applicants will have to look for another school which has vacancy. Only 5 Primary School need not go through the balloting process this year. There will be more pressure in the next few years. There are parents who buy resale flat within 1km of the school to boast their child chances of entering the school.

Animal Crossing Power Off

If you power off without saving the game, u will be scolded by a character called Resetti. It will appear when the next time you start the game.
He will appear after u left the house and start talking to u. It will last 1 to 2 minutes. This will ensure the player will not leave the game without saving it in the first place.

SGH DAY 2

The doctor has informed us that my father condition is complicated and critical. The water are present both at the lung and the heart area. A decision will need to be make later on whether to remove the water as there are some risk involved. A Cardiologist will be checking his condition in the afternoon before we are ask to make a decision.
If his condition can be stabilise, he will need to be move to a step down facility like a hospice or community hospital.
My dad underwent a simple procedure to remove water near the heart in the evening time. It took 1 hour and it was a success. He will be staying at CCU(high dependency) for at least one night before going back to the normal ward.
My advise to all my friends who are smoker to quit now before anything happen to you. My dad was a smoker for more than 30 years and only quit after diagnosis of lung cancer.

Contacts Synchronization for iPhone

The contacts can be synchronize to your iPhone 3G using your Outlook program.You just need to enable the function in your iTunes device settings. It will open the Outlook program and synchronize with your iPhone 3G.
Keep and update your contacts in Outlook so that you will not lose your contacts information. Press the syn button in iTunes and all your contacts will be copy to your iPhone 3G.
It is time to keep all your contacts information on Outlook if you have not done so yet. Most of the current Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, Sony Ericsson and other mobile phones allow you to synchronize the contacts to the Outlook. Do it now if you plan to get the iPhone 3G and this will prevent you from losing any important contacts. Drop us a comment if u have any problem.

Phase 2C Balloting for Primary Schools

The wait for the balloting day to come was a anxious time for my family. It occur yesterday at 9am at Admiralty Primary School. We did not attend it as I was working. Today I got the result that my daughter was successful in getting a place. I and wife was happy as it is a good neighbourhood school and it is within 1km of our house.
As previously mention in my blog, all three primary school within 1km of my house need balloting. When purchasing a new house, you also need to know whether it falls within 1km radius of the primary school. In this case, applicants outside the 1km are not eligible for the ballot as they have enough applicants within the 1km radius of the school.
I can sense joy for parents successful in balloting and sadness for those who are not successful. MOE will assign a school for parents who are unsuccessful in the ballot. I will not need to worry for my second kid as he will qualify for phase 1 registration as his sister is in the school already.

Thumnails will not display in My Folder

Recently my friend has got some problems viewing thumbnails in his folder. It only show the icons of the bmp, jpeg ,gif and png instead of the thumbnail of the picture. This happen after he try to remove some viruses and malwares. The registry may have been modified and that is why you are not able to view your thumbnails.

You may go to view your registry by typing the following command at the Start -> Run
regedit

It will open the registry editor. Do not try to delete or modify anything as it may affect your operating system. Click to open the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT -> .bmp -> OpenWithList. If you do not see the ois.exe and PictureViewer.exe, it means you will not be able to view the thumbnails.
Close the Registry Editor and perform the below command to rectify it.

Type the following command at the Start -> Run:
regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll

Once you see the message "DllRefisterServer and DllInstall in shimgvw.dll succeeded", it means you can now view thumbnails in your folder.
