Now I’ll discuss and answer the workshop questions for this week. The first questions wants me to describe myself, like my self-image and personality traits. I’m 21 years old, 5’7 Caucasian with brown hair and blue eyes. I believe I’m a somewhat witty and fun individual with a playful sense of humour and always strives to make someone laugh or be happy when I’m in their presence, of course. I know there’s a fine line between seriousness and playfulness, and although I’m a highly optimistic person, I know there’s a time and a place to be the ‘class clown’, and here at Edith Cowan University, I tend to stay on the ‘serious / detemined’ side because, for one, I’m here by choice, and I choose to learn, but University has never been one to be ‘too’ serious, rather much more relaxed during tutorials whilst being highly educational. Comparing my traits to that from ‘The Ten Dimensions of Complexity’, the only attributes from that list that reflect on me are; smart when naive at the same time, playful and disciplined, humble and proud and passionate yet objective.

The other attributes do not reflect my personality traits very well, specifically (and I’ll use this prime attribute as an example because during the tutorial, I was the one to explore this attribute and discuss it with the class) escape rigid gender role stereotyping. In the readings by Csikszentmihalyi [1996] he explained how often, creative males are perceived as more feminine, showing a great lack in body strength, presenting themselves as weak, whilst creative females are shown to be more dominant and perceived as less feminine than they should be. I believe this is incorrect, as I know of a lot of people within this ‘creative industries’ course, and alike, out of this course, who are just, if not, more creative than myself but display the natural features of what a male and female should be perceived as, including myself. Not to just slander his statement as completely incorrect, I do believe that males present themselves as less dominant than they should be, but it’s never confused with the sexuality of a homosexual. What I believe is incorrect is his statement on females, I have not yet witnessed another female that is less feminine than they should be whilst being highly creative.

McLaren have apologized for Mark Webber’s starting problems during the Australian Grand Prix, Webber had already indicated it was a software-related problem, and today McLaren said in a statement that the ECU (Engine Control Unit), produced by McLaren Electronic Systems and supplied to all Formula One teams, caused the problem that cost Webber at least five places during the start of his home Grand Prix.

McLaren Team Principal Martin Whitmarsh yesterday said he would look into the matter. “We’ll put our hands up if it’s a fault that’s derived from the hardware or the BIOS,” he said, adding, “You can also inflict ECU problems on yourself by how you set it up, but I will look into it.”

But today McLaren said in a statement, “The electronic units themselves ran without incident in Melbourne, but there was a software-related issue that meant that Mark Webber’s Red Bull Racing car’s garage data system had to be re-started during the formation lap. That disrupted his preparations for the start of the race, for which Mark and the team has our apology. We are working together with them to prevent any recurrence.”

About his unfortunate start Webber later commented, “It wasn’t a good start, and we’ll look into why that happened. But when you find yourself in the middle of the pack and you don’t have KERS [in this case the ECU shut down KERS as well], you’re in a really hard place. You can’t attack and it’s hard to defend through the DRS zones.”

“My goal was to finish on the podium, but things went against me from the start: we had no telemetry on the grid, we had no KERS for the opening 20 laps and the car fell off the jacks at the first pit stop, costing me time.”

A new revised standard ECU was introduced this season and during pre-season testing there were already a few software problems which meant several teams were not able to properly record the stream of car and engine data the ECU produces.

According to McLaren, “An ECU comprises several thousand parts, tens of thousands of solder connections and hundreds of thousands of lines of software. It is a very complex piece of equipment that controls the powertrain and DRS, and acts as a car’s primary data system.”

The standard ECU was introduced by the FIA in 2008, and the old version ran four years without problems. The new version will also power the 2014 V6 turbo-charged hybrid engines, the new control units are not only used in Formula One, but also in the NASCAR and IndyCar series.

If you are interested in have your team’s sporting event filmed, head over to the “Contact” section of the website.

Let me tell you, these two are the epitome of love! It was so special to see them interacting with each other in a way that only soul mates do. They’ve been together for 20 + years, but they enjoy each other’s company as if they’re on the first date. I love these guys, check out some of the photos from their shoot:

So, as expected, the two weeks initially projected for Mark Teixeira to rest and rehab his wrist injury has morphed into a likely eight-to-ten-week recovery period; that is certainly more realistic and still no slam-dunk.

The strain was identified as being to Teixeira’s ECU, or extensor carpi ulnaris tendon. Brian Cashman told WFAN radio that “treatment is four weeks of no activity and then four to six weeks of getting him going, which is dry swings and eventually the tee, and then toss and then batting practice and spring training.”

The initial and necessary period of inactivity (accompanied by treatment to minimize inflammation) allows for the healing response of the involved tendon but causes deconditioning of the ECU as well as all the other muscles of the region. Rest will be followed by a program of pain-free progressive strengthening of the forearm, wrist, and hand musculature, as well stretching of the forearm muscles. This must precede a return to any baseball activities. Pushing the pace of rehab and return to sports is likely to result in exacerbation or recurrence of injury.

Don’t look for Texeira to play until his wrist is 100 percent.

What is the ECU?

The ECU spans from its origin near the elbow on the outer side (lateral epicondyle) of the humerus of the upper arm and the middle of the ulna in the forearm to its insertion at the base of the long bone below the pinky finger (the 5^th metacarpal). It acts to tilt the hand toward the side of the little finger (ulnar deviation) – important for batting – as well as to extend the wrist.

More injuries around the league:

Brett Lawrie, Blue Jays third baseman reportedly suffered a mild left oblique strain and was pulled from the World Baseball Classic. Despite having had a similar injury toward the end of last season causing him to miss a good deal of action, reports varied, noting that Lawrie would likely miss either two or several weeks this go-round. Though I haven’t evaluated his injury to know its severity, I’d be surprised to see Lawrie back at the plate during spring training. For more information on oblique injuries take a look here.

Rafael Furcal, St. Louis Cardinals switch-hitting shortstop, elected to rest and rehab his right elbow at the end of last season rather than undergo Tommy John surgery. Turns out he was postponing the inevitable. Though the time to return to full competition for a pitcher who undergoes the procedure is generally 11 months to a year, reports indicate an expected return for Furcal as soon as eight months hence. The matter is moot as that puts us into the offseason.

The campaign was launched with a profoundly unwise email, sent by university employee Summer Wisdom under the subject line “Gay? Fine by me.” She begins:

“This spring the LGBT Resource Office (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender) is hosting a program called ‘Gay? Fine By Me‘ and we would love for you and your department to share in this opportunity. The LGBTRO will be ordering shirts that say ‘gay? fine by me’ and distributing them to faculty, staff and students to promote an atmosphere of support on campus. This simple message helps to combat homophobia by publically (sic) affirming our LGBT community and creating an inclusive environment where all students can feel safe to express who they are. The shirts will be distributed free of charge, though the LGBTRO welcomes donations to the project.”

Note that Wisdom, while not demonstrating wisdom, does demonstrate honesty in two ways. First, she admits that affirmation, rather than tolerance, is the goal of her movement. Second, she characterizes refusal to affirm homosexuality as evidence of a “phobia,” which needs to be combatted. Her position is simple: Pro gay is fine by me. Anything else is not fine by me. She continues her assault on reason:

“Everyone will be encouraged to wear the shirts on campus and to participate in a campus wide ally project where we will create a Human Rainbow during the annual Barefoot on the Mall celebration. Photos of this massive showing of LGBT support will be publicized on the LGBTRO’s website and social media accounts.”

Wow. Everyone will be encouraged to wear a t shirt saying “Gay? Fine by me.” Why? Because they know there is opposition on the campus and they need to combat it. In other words, they are going to promote inclusion on campus by “encouraging” people to promote a message with which they disagree. Then they will take a picture to preserve a record of those who conformed. These are the same people who oppose prayer in schools because they think kids will be stigmatized for refusing to bow their heads. She continues:

“The LGBTRO would also like to create an internal marketing campaign by taking pictures of ECU faculty, staff, administrators, student leaders and student groups wearing the shirts. This is where you come in. If you, your department or office, or the student group you advise would like to participate, you can reserve the correct number of shirts on the org sync order form below. Shirts will be distributed March 18th – 20th on Wright Plaza, at the LGBTRO … times and location for the photo shoot will be e–mailed to everyone who reserves shirts or picks one up at Wright Plaza.”

In other words, just in case the photo at the Human Rainbow event fails to identify all dissenters, Ms. Wisdom will arrange for departmental photo shoots. So, for example, if there are ten professors in a department and only nine in a picture, we all know who needs an extra nudge in keeping up with “diversity” and “progress.” One could say of the photos that if you’re not included, then you’re not inclusive. She continues:

“The picture will be yours for your own marketing materials but will also be part of a campus wide poster campaign of Pirate Allies. We are also willing to bring a photographer to you if you are part of a large group or department and would like the photo to take place in your own building or during a pre-arranged meeting instead of walking everyone over to our photo shoot. Please communicate with my (sic) directly if you would like to set up something like this. This is a wonderful opportunity to be a part of something great while showcasing support for positive change on ECU’s campus.”

Why not offer to put rainbow stickers on the doors – and rainbow buttons on the lapels – of all staff and faculty members who support the cause? That way, when their “Gay? Fine by me” t shirts are dirty, they can have something to transfer from garment to garment. For those who disagree, just give them yellow stars (or come over and sew them on their outer garments). She continues:

“If you or your department would like to participate, the link below will take you to an order form on OrgSync where you are provided multiple options: 1. Reserve the correct number of shirts and sizes for your group, 2. Reserve your shirts AND make a donation to the project, 3. Make a donation to the project without ordering shirts. (Donations to the project of $500.00 or more will add your office or department’s logo to the event publicity flyers as a sponsor).”

Well, that was a real shocker, wasn’t it? After all that preaching, she had to ask the congregation for money. Finally, Wisdom signs off:

“Summer Wisdom, LGBT Resource Office, Sociology Instructor.”

So Ms. Wisdom teaches sociology. Another shocker! No wonder she is so fixated on ideological conformity. The question is whether ECU department heads will use these photo ops as an opportunity to pressure people of faith into promoting beliefs that conflict with their deeply held religious convictions.

The answer is in my next column.

Namun di balik jaminan keamanan tersebut ada risiko dimana kita sebagai pemilik tidak bisa seenaknya memutus kelistrikan, misalnya dalam hal melepas aki. Kalau sewaktu-waktu kita terjepit dalam kondisi melepas aki dikarenakan aki sudah aus dan ingin mengganti sendiri (karena mobil sudah tidak mau jalan), maka bisa dilakukan dengan cara sbb:

(0) buka kap mesin,

(1) buka jendela sopir,

(2) dari luar mobil lewat jendela, posisikan kunci “on” (tanpa starter), tunggu 10 detik, lalu matikan, jangan buka pintu dulu,

(3) tunggu semua lampu (termasuk switch power window) mati, lalu cabut aki yaitu dengan mencabut kutub negatif dulu dilanjutkan kutub positif,

(4) untuk memasang lagi tinggal tancapkan kutub positif terlebih dahulu kemudian dilanjutkan kutub negatif.

Berapa lama aki boleh dicopot? Boleh berhari-hari bahkan berbulan-bulan (menurut buku manual, kalo mobil lama tidak akan digunakan, aki disarankan dicabut). PR kecil setelah aki dilepas dan dipasang ulang paling reset bahasa, tanggal, jam, satuan suhu, satuan kecepatan, dll.

Bagaimana jika terjadi kesalahan sehingga ECU terkunci (locked)?

Harus dimasukkan kode PIN (yang tertera di kartu security code bawaan, seperti kartu ATM) melalui aplikasi komputer yang disebut Peugeot Planet System (PPS). Banyak bengkel spesialis mobil Eropa atau bahkan spesialis Peugeot yang sudah mempunyai software ini, selain bengkel resmi tentunya.

Apakah bisa membuat kunci cadangan atau membuat kartu security code lagi?

Berdasar informasi yang beredar di beberapa forum, kita bisa memesan kunci cadangan atau security code ke Astra Peugeot di Sunter Jakarta, namun belum dapat penulis peroleh informasi mengenai: berapa lama prosesnya; berapa biayanya, namun lebih lanjut akan penulis sampaikan dalam posting berikutnya. Semoga bermanfaat

Twas the first time I explored Perth on my own and it was very tiring!

I walked around for a few hours just looking for apartment ads posted in bulletin boards or realty agents offices. After that, I decided to go to ECU to get my application forms for the clearances I have to submit. I got the Working with Children Check (WWCC) from Student Central and got it signed by the office. I took the application to the old post office near Perth underground, but wasn’t able to submit it because a proof of address is required, which i have nill because I’ve only been here three days. I’ve applied for my medicare card, which supposedly has the address on it. Hopefully it comes in a few days so I’d be able to submit my clearances soon and have it processed immediately.

Anyway, on the way from ECU to the post office, I met what Steph calls the weirdoes of the transportation system. This time, it was the bus driver. I was supposed to be the last passenger to board the bus when I saw a woman running to catch the bus. I remember thinking she’ll make it. She was just meters away from me when I boarded. I swiped my SmartRider and took a seat only to hear the bus driver screaming at the girl for trying to stop the bus and the girl screaming why the heck he would close the bus on her. Personally, I agree with the girl. The bus wasn’t even moving yet and the doors haven’t fully closed. She hadn’t done anything wrong. But the irrational driver called for security and shouted at all the passengers to just take another bus because it might take a while for security to come. Poor unsuspecting passengers who didn’t see what happened got shouted at to take another bus just as they boarded the bus. In the end, another bus came and the former just took off without even waiting for security. Poor man, I wonder what happened to his day that got him so irrationally irritated.

Another thing I learned is not to commute anytime near 3pm-4pm, it’s the going home commute time of students as well and they ride the bus in BIG groups! On the other hand, I saw a kid who reminded me of Alfalfa and I wanted to sing ” You are so beautiful to me…”

Got back home safely, but very tired. Fun tired. Loving my first few days in the land of koalas so far.

As some of you may know, weather in North Carolina is ridiculous. One day it will be 60 degrees and the next day it will be snowing. This is what happened in my neighborhood YESTERDAY, and then today it’s gorgeous. Cold, but gorgeous.

We’ve only had snow about 2 other times this year, and one time doesn’t really count because it was like an ice stormy-slushy mess. It also tends to snow on Thursdays. I know this because I always go to my friends house on Thursdays and we always have a possibility of getting snowed in.

Well the other morning, I was awoken to a text from my loving boyfriend telling me to look out the window, and THIS IS WHAT I SEE.

So of course I preceded to enjoy the weather, even though I was only wearing my pajamas.

even so much as eating my breakfast outside on the porch.

I I then decided that waking my roommates and their sleeping friends up by throwing snowballs at them. While my boyfriend would have found this hilarious, he was not there. My roommate did not appreciate my happiness, but his friends didn’t seem to mind as much.

I then proceeded to head off to work, which is another fate that always tends to happen to me when it snows. And wanted to leave a fun thing for my boyfriend to find when he got off. (Even though it would melt before he’d see it)

The moral of this story you ask?

DON’T PLAY IN THE SNOW ALL MORNING IN PJS!!! Because the black plague of death came upon me that night and I was bedridden for a good 24 hours. I felt miserable, and I still don’t feel 100% but still. While I love snow, NC weather is terrible.

Ang init sa Perth ah! Grabe lang ang araw! Well, at least it was windy today, so the heat didn’t bother me as much as I thought it would. Just looking at the yellow rays of sunshine makes me want to hide in bed all day. Everywhere you go, the sun follows you, there’s no way to hide from it!

Anyway, Tita Virgie (my bro’s very kind Filipina landlady here) offered to help me go to and from Edith Cowan University (ECU) using the transportation system of Perth, aka TransPerth. Thing is, she’s not well-versed in riding the TransPerth herself cause she drives a car. So we ended up in the middle of nowhere, walked several kilometeres back and forth, and endured the heat for half a day. But all that trouble paid off because now at least I know now how to get to and from my campus. I’ll have to try going back and forth this week so that I don’t get lost or delayed when time already matters for me, which will be in a week’s time.

Aside from already knowing how to get to and from ECU, I also activated 3 things: my SIM (so now I have an Aus no.!), my student ID (which also includes library and printing card) and my SmartRider pass (which is at the back of my student ID and which gives me a BIG discount on transportation expenses! From ordinary fare of $3+, it’s reduced to $0.50!). What a productive day!

At night, I went to my first Perth party, which happens to be in The Manila Restaurant, for a Filipina debutant. Pinched myself and slapped my face several times to see if I was dreaming. I knew I had arrived in Perth, but all that karaoke and Filipino delicacies made me think otherwise. Deviating to the todo impromptu dress-up, I had to borrow a dress from Steph (Tita Virgie’s daughter) and shoes from Mai-Mai (Virgie’s Filipina neighbor). And why do I have to borrow a dress and shoes, you ask? Because my luggage didn’t make it with me to Perth… It’s probably still in Singapore or floating somewhere the Pacific Ocean. Hopefully not! The airline somehow left my luggage in Singapore or Manila…I hope it arrives soon!

Overall, very exciting first day for this tarsier in the land of koalas. ))
