I have a habit. Maybe something that everyone has but I do. I can’t categorize this habit as good or bad, it depends on people. For me, it does not have any bad or good to others. I just love to look at people shoes. I don’t know why and I can’t remember when it started, just found out that this habit of mine when I realized that I’m looking at people’s footwear almost all the time.

I don’t really have an obsession for shoes except for a certain brand of shoes especially athletic shoes. If you want specifics, that would be basketball shoes. Largely, you can categorize it as fondness for snickers and sports shoes. I don’t really have a collection of working shoes because I don’t really need it. I have two pairs of working shoes at home which I last used them like 2 years ago for a job interview.

I don’t really have a collection of shoes that I can brag about, but I really don’t care. I just want to share with guys. I have a pair of Adidas shoes that I used for futsal, 3 pairs of Nike basketball shoes and a pair of AND1 basketball shoes. The problem with getting a nice pair of shoes is the availability of it in the local market so I decided to take some time finding them online.

I found a nice online store that offers a lot of choices on shoes. It has a lot of shoe collection from the latest designs. They are are offering a range of famous brands like Adidas, Nike, Puma, Reebok, Ralph Lauren and to not so famous brand (at least from my knowledge) like Shmack, Supra, Hurley, Just In and a whole lot more. They are offering shoes for men, women, youth, kids and even toddlers.

The website is nicely developed and professional. You can either search your product or you can filter all the shoes to your likings with shoe finder function. The options that you can pick for the shoe finder function are the discounts, sizes, gender, brands, style, color and width. It will then display all the shoes that meets your criteria. The discounts are up to 75% which is very high for shoes ( you can’t expect 100% discount). They also provide online help in case you have something to ask. The payment options includes credit cards, paypal and bank transfers. They can ship the packages to international locations outside US too (nice).

Apart from discount athletic shoes, they also have a wide range of apparels that might interest you. Overall, my experience using their website has been splendid. I wonder if they are any websites that is local to my location. Sometimes, I don’t trust Ebay people because some of them are selling fake stuff from designer brands.

Did you ever heard of paintball? Do you ever play paintball? I know I’ve heard of it and I am eager to try it out. Don’t expect me as a total geek who only sits in front of the computer and doing nothing except playing counter strike or other computer games only. In fact, I do love engaging in physical sports like futsal and basketball, paintball is what I’m aiming next.

My company held a paintball tournament a while ago. I can’t join the tournament because I have to work on that day. In fact, I feel so jealous when my friends were talking about how much they had during the tournament. They keep talking about it like for a week straight. You can imagine how much fun they had during the paintball tournament.

Paintball is a sport that is relatively expensive at the moment and it’s getting popular and more popular each day. Each month, I can see there’s a new place for paintballing and looking at this trend, I can safely say it’s growing fast here and it’s getting cheaper by each day due to competitions of paintballing centers. Like I said earlier, although the paintball equipments are relatively expensive, this doesn’t stop a few people to get hands on their own paintball gear themselves.

Paintball gears can be purchased the local paintball centers. To those who might want to try it out first, you can always rent the equipment at the paintball center. How about shopping the paintball gears online? I have a particular website that might interest paintball fanatics and big spenders.

Jasse Paintball is a paintball online shop. It’s a huge collection of paintball gears and tons of it. Equipment sold starts from guns, pistols, vest, mask, barrels, air system and hoppers. They even have paintball grenades and mines too. Okay, I admit I don’t know that. They also provide a variety of brands for the equipments too. The top selling brands are Tippman, Ariakon, Tiberius, Spyder and Smart Parts. The prices starts from as low as $4.95 for the grenades up to $994 for a single rifle. You have the option to buy single parts or can opt for a complete package from them. And did I mention they offer free shipping too? Remember to check for their terms and conditions first!

So any bloggers want to hold a paintball.com tournament? Let me know about it so that we can have a real Counter Strike experience. If you ever came across a paintball tournament, remember to wear masks and preferably thick clothes or you’ll be sorry when it’s over !

Read the title again? Wait, do you think that I made a mistake there? Nope, I don’t. So what do you think cougar means here? It’s not a car. It’s not a a type of lion or the name of a rock band. Cougar here means a middle aged woman who actively dating or seeking relationship with younger men, usually with ages of 30 and younger. We usually heard about men dating younger women and it’s not a weird thing these days but what about the opposite? How do you feel about it?

From my personal opinion, there’s no reason to be shocked about cougars. If older men can date or seek a relationship with younger women so why can it be the opposite? Didn’t older women need love and care from others? In most cases, we usually heard about couples who were married for 20 years, maybe 30 years filed divorce. If the husband seek a relationship with other women younger than their age, what could happen to the wives? Should they seek relationship with men who are about the same age as them? If they’re lucky, they might found one but usually they are happily married with another woman.

This would be unfair to them right? Some younger men prefer dating older women because they are more matured. Matured here comes in different definitions, it maybe in life experiences, socially, way of thinking, financially and even sexually. Whether you like to date older woman or not, it’s up to you. The choice is in your hands but it’s certainly not for me because I already have someone younger for me as my future wife. What about you, do want to date cougars?

Have you ever heard of Windows Prefetch File? Windows Prefetch Files are used to optimize application loading and Windows boot up. In Windows XP, the main component is called Prefetcher and in Windows Vista, there are 2 major components that are working together to increase the prefetch ability which is Ready Boots and Super Fetch.

Prefetch files are used to monitor and adapt the usage pattern of files and applications over period of time and to load the majority of the files and data needed into memory so that they can be accessed directly and very quickly when needed instead of searching them from the hard disk making it slower due to seek and spin time of the hard disk.

The picture above should show you the location of the prefetch file. There’s also a rumor that if you delete the files in the prefetch folder, it will make your computer loads faster. Well, eventually this is against the principle of prefetch file in the first place. Deleting the files in the prefetch folder will make your computer takes a longer time to boot.

Prefetch files can be identified as files with extension *.pf or File Extension OPF. Remember, these type of files are meant to increase the speed of application loading and deleting the files will make your program to load longer.

I’m not sure if you guys have ever heard of Gauher Chaudhry? Gauher is one of the  top affiliate marketeer on the net. Although he seems a little low profile compared to our local IM like Zamri and Gobala, but he’s definitely one hell of a guy.

Warning : Please don’t use this technique to scam people. This is just a knowledge sharing on how easy to do this.

I know a lot of people have spam and phishing emails in their inbox. Sometimes it looks very legitimate and as real as the original email. One of the way that we can use to know whether it’s fake or not is to look at the sender’s email. But what if the sender’s email also look legitimate and the real deal? The main question, is it really possible?

If you ask me, then I would say it’s possible to do this. Let me show you a way to do this and it’s really simple. I use a web service called Dead Fake at deadfake.com.

Go to deadfake.com and click on send fake email

You will get something like below and just fill out whatever you want there.

There’s a captcha so that it will not be utilize by spam bots. Fill in the captcha and click send now. You will get a notification saying that the email has been delivered.

After a while, i received the email in my inbox. I can say apart from the content, it looks legitimate to me.

The only problem with the service is that you will have a notification at the bottom of the email saying it’s fake. I wonder how many people actually read something so bottom in their emails?

So you’ve seen how scammers and phising sites send out their fake emails. In the next post, I will talk about how to avoid and recognize phishing emails. So stay tune to this blog by subscribing to my RSS feeds.
