EPUBOR Adobe DRM Removal!

Are you frustrated trying to access your purchased ebooks, which are passworded protected, from various devices? From each device, when you first open the document, you need to login. And this is very frustrating when you want to share it with your friends.

What is the solution? TRY Epubor's Adobe ePUB&PDF DRM Removal 

The software is VERY EASY to use. Just select the pdf you want to decrypt, let the program run for about  5mins (my book was about 400pages long) and VOILA!!! It is done!

I have used the software on a free trial and it works! No quality reduction, everything is perfect! But you need to pay for registration to get the full document.

For USD18, you have heaps of books you want to share with friends, I think this software is worth trying.

dream

i saw in a room there were a bunch of Aus @ers, including Anne. Anne saw me and yelled my name and came over and hugged me.

There was a bar with various candies

I cleaned a cupboard's top, where there is a spider and spiderweb. Threw it into a dustbin.

We were on an island holiday and on our last day I saw there is this landmark which was the furthest point from where we were located. It was where they filmed a famous movie about a couple wedding.

oh, then YK whatsapp asked if Malaysia is hiring teachers. I  said yes, we need to improve our English teachers' quality. Nick said o no.... replying to YK as he felt sad that YK is forced to come back to Msia.

Lala am here today

Testing to see if this way to upload Google photo works.

Transition

The rise of baby photos appearing on my FB is starting.

Going for class this weekend.

Tonight play zombie with nick and Ccw. Hl tbc

Still considering whether to get 1060 or not...

Am currently in ikea. Read a pocket article on journal. Said big shot ppl do it often..  It also said should outline what have been accomplished each day. And be more honest

My accomplishment for today is:
1) read some bazi for andrea
2) did 30 situps, 30leg pull and 20 of a variation situp
3) finishing my book on secret of a millionaire
4) Bought more umwog, thinking it will go up. The support is strong and even though it fell to 315, the adx's PDMI is still above MDMI. So I bought 50k at 320.

2) did about 30mins of work on bazi

Oct 17 /Weekend back in KL

Went hiking with Jolene, Ying Ling & eefeng at KD Forest Reserve. Took us total about 3hrs. Did not enjoy it as much as it was quite an easy hike. Once you reached the top, you get a view of the NKVE highway.

Watched Geostorm with Ying Ling on Sunday night. OK la. Had sushi Q before movie and little fat duck after.

Went to CM house to collect ccw house key. played new fifa18

Brownie baking lessons

1) More butter - more gooey
2) Do not use milk chocolate
3) Cocoa powder replaces flour, not chocolate
4) Use one teaspoon of salt

First baking
1) Used milk chocolate - hence a lot of butter left on the bottom of the brownie (and it did not harden)
2) Used 250g of white sugar (too much)
3) The tray was higher up and I pour all to one small rectangular tray

Second baking
1) Used dark chocolate - no butter left on the bottom
2) Used 200g of brown sugar (still too much) - suggest to reduce to 170g next time
3) Time was 30mins at 170C, though I did continue baking for 5mins at 150C
4) There were two trays, one further from lamp is more moist. The one nearer to lamp is more cakey

I did find the second baking was smoother and faster.

Third baking
1) Dark choc
2) Extra butter 230 instead of 200g
3) 150g sugar instead of 250g, brown sugar
4) Put in half teaspoon of salt (as per tricia)
5) the rest is the same
6)  left it at 170c for 35mins,and another one longer. About 5m +

Fourth bake

1) dark choc 350g

2) butter 230g

3) sugar 120g

4)  half teaspoon of salt

5) 50g self raising flour

6) 3 eggs

7) 190c for 30m. 170c for 5mins?

Output is good but still too crumbly and not crispy. suggest to do something with the egg sugar or the time in the oven or maybe the heat

Costing
Butter RM8.30 - 250g
Dark chocolate RM28 for 1kg (i only used 350)
Eggs 3 pieces - 0.50/piece
Sugar about RM3 for 500g (i only used 200g)
Flour is negligible

Blade runner

The movie is a no no. Don't bother watching

I used this website to find out about Innsbruck and Verona. Very pleased :)

Lost my phone... at a garden

Sigh

I lost my phone i bought this year, in a garden. Someone may have took it.

So I was walking around doing work, I MAY HAVE DROPPED IT SOMEWHERE....  OR, I have left it on the bench, and SOMEONE TOOK IT....

Strange this is this

If I have dropped it somewhere, what I did after that was:-
1) I backtracked everywhere! I even overturned the whole compost just to look for it (took me two hours).

2) I called my phone, I whatsapp it, I use my Find My Device to ring it, I CANNOT HEAR Shtz from it

3) It is a hard item, so I used a rake to rake around, NOPE..... no such luck


IF someone have took it:-
1) He or She should have switch off the phone immediately, why kept the line on?!?

2) I SMSed a few times, they would have be aware of it, of my offer to the reward. They should have switch it off OR reply me.

3) When I rang it using the Find My Device, they should stop it immediately too!


I still suspect someone took it, not on purpose but he/she did, mainly because, when I call it a few times earlier, one of the call actually was accepted, BUT NO ONE WAS TALKING, as if the thigh/butt dial problem happened. :(

Anyway I shall have a go at it later, ask around for it, and then decide what phone to buy...



In other news:
I want to reduce intake of the following:-
1) ice cream
2) bubble milk tea
3) fruit juice
mainly to save some money

What Santu said is true, if I save a bit here and there, it is a lot.

Bhaktapur

Bfast @ rooftop, eggs and toast + yogurt

Walked to Siddha pokari. Was disappointed at the view

Walked to durbar square, paid usd15 for entrance fee.. Paid a guy rm20 for tour guide, brought us around and explain the buildings. One of the more interesting ones is the kamasutra temple / Pashupatinath Temple. They have 24 pictures that depicts the positions for sexual intercourse. Upon performing, you will have a baby. It is for the olden time young couples to educate them on how to have a family, as usually back then they get married quite young.

We visited a thangka center, art painting from the olden times. We didn't appreciate it much so we didn't stay long. Next we went past nyatapola temple. Beautiful. Nyata means five and this pagoda has 5 levels.

We also visited a pottery maker. I wanted to buy a cup from him but the price was high. When I went back someone already bought all of it.. Unfortunate for me, but he was nice enough and felt bad about it that he gave me a small Buddhist statue as a gift.

We went back to pottery cafe and bar for lunch, had vege pakoda and chicken Chilli momo.

We visited the peacock window and dattreya Temple. After that shopped for chips, and now we are chilling at the guest house waiting for our taxi.

Taxi picked us up and reached airport  in about 40mins. Krishna dropped by, passed us goodbye gift and falafel and kebab wraps. Checked in, and had our dinner at the airport. Now waiting to pass security. It is 720pm, flight is at 925pm.

Flight delayed for one hour. Talked with Betty and her niece. Her niece got diarrhea. Thank God it was the last night in nepal.
