34 minit sehari

  Apabila kita melakukan sesuatu pekerjaan, kadang-kala kita terlalu sibuk sehinggakan kita jadikan ia alasan untuk melengah-lengahkan solat atau lebih teruk lagi, meninggalkannya terus. Jikadilakukan sedikit pengiraan, dalam sehari, kita perlu menunaikan solat:

• Subuh: 2 rakaat
• Zuhur: 4 rakaat
• Asar: 4 rakaat
• Maghrib: 3 rakaat
• Isyak: 4 rakaat

   Jadi jumlah keseluruhan adalah 17 rakaat sehari. Katakan seseorang itu mengerjakan solat lebih kurang 2 minit untuk setiap rakaat, maka jumlah masa yang diambil untuk menunaikan solat dalam sehari hanyalah selama 34 minit. Dalam sehari ada 24 jam bersamaan 1440 minit. Jika dikira peratusan masa yang diambil untuk menunaikan solat dalam sehari, hanyalah 2.36%.

   Bagaimana pula dalam masa seminggu? 34 minit darab 7 bersamaan 238 minit. 238 minit bersamaan dengan 3.97 jam. Jika dikira dalam sebulan pula, katakan purata dalam sebulan ada 4 minggu.3.97 jam darab 4 bersamaan dengan 15.88 jam.

   Dalam setahun pula, 15.88 jam sebulan darab dengan 12 sama dengan 190.56 jam. 190.56 jam ini jika ditukarkan kepada unit hari adalah bersamaan dengan 7.94 hari. Rupanya dalam setahun, masa kita untuk sembahyang hanyalah lebih kurang 8 hari.

   Kita kira dari segi purata umur manusia pula. Katakan purata umur seseorang adalah sehingga 60 tahun. Umur 10 tahun merupakan umur seseorang mencapai akil baligh dan sudah mula wajib untuk menunaikan solat. Ini bermakna, seseorang yang berusia 60 tahun perlu bersolat selama 50 tahun. Jika dalam setahun, masa yang diambil untuk menunaikan solat hanyalah 7.94 hari, maka dalam tempoh waktu 50 tahun, masa yang diambil untuk menunai solat hanyalah 397 hari. 397 hari lebih kurang bersamaan 1 tahun 1 bulan.

   Bayangkan dalam sepanjang umur kita, Allah hanya menyuruh kita menggunakan 1 tahun 1 bulan dari keseluruhan umur 60 tahun kita untuk menunai solat. Itupun kadangkala masa solat kita kurang kerana uzur, jama', kurang 2 rakaat untuk solat Jumaat. 

   Jika difikirkan kembali, 34 minit sehari adalah sangat singkat. Tengok wayang 2 jam, shopping berjam-jam, 34 minit tu tak luak pun masa 24 jam kita untuk sehari. Oleh itu, marilah kita sama-sama memperbaiki solat kita dan menghargai masa 34 minit itu dengan bersungguh-sungguh dan penuh khusyuk.

With iPhone 5, Apple Has Chiseled The Smartphone To Near Perfection

hoho:)

You pick it up and it almost feels fake. That’s not to say it feels cheap; because it doesn’t — quite the opposite, actually. It just doesn’t seem real. Certainly not to someone who has been holding the iPhone 4/4S for the past two years. It feels like someone took one of those devices and hollowed it out.

The iPhone 5 is here.

I’ve had the opportunity to play around with the latest iPhone for the past several days. I won’t beat around the bush: it’s fantastic.

Of course, you’re probably expecting me to say that. But that doesn’t mean I’m wrong. The fact of the matter is, you can either listen to me or lose out. You’re going to want this phone.

Reading the press coverage since the unveiling, you may have heard that the iPhone 5 is disappointing, or boring. Those people, quite frankly, are fools. They either haven’t actually used the device, or only played with it for a few minutes in the hands-on area after last week’s event. (Or worse, they’re projecting their own boredom in their jobs due to Apple’s dominance of the tech scene these past few years.) Using a device on a regular basis is what really matters. And in that regard, the iPhone 5 shines in just about every conceivable way.

In fact, I’ll go a step farther: I really do believe this is the best iPhone upgrade that Apple has done yet (besting the iPhone-to-iPhone 3G jump and the iPhone 3GS-to-iPhone 4 jump). As such, it’s the best version of the iPhone yet. By far.

Let’s start with the body. I already talked about just how incredibly light it is. I almost want to compare it to one of those fake electronics place holders they put on floor display units at furniture stores — but that’s obviously not right. Perhaps it’s better to compare it to some of the Android phones out there. Several of those are also very light. The key difference here is that those often attain the low weight by going with a plastic shell. That makes them feel cheap.

The iPhone 5 sheds the weight of the iPhone 4/4S in two major ways. First, by dropping the glass back in favor of aluminum. And second, by integrating the touch technology right into the display itself (previously, it has been a layer over the display), which has allowed Apple to use a thinner sheet of glass on the front of the phone.

The iPhone 4/4S never felt heavy in my hand during day-to-day use over the course of the past two years. But when I would pick up an Android device like the Nexus S, there was no question that the iPhone was heavier. Now the iPhone 5 is actually lighter than the Nexus S, and again, it did with without reverting to plastic. The result is a device that feels every bit as solid and realized as the iPhone 4/4S.

The nice side effect of the reduction of the front glass and the removal of the back glass is that the iPhone 5 is now also significantly thinner than the iPhone 4/4S. This is less noticeable to me in regular usage, but holding them side-by-side, the difference it very obvious.

If, like me, you carry your iPhone in the front pocket of your pants, both the trimness and the weight of the iPhone 5 are most welcome additions (subtractions?).

The other crazy thing about the weight of the iPhone 5 is that it’s so much lighter even with the addition of a significantly larger screen. This is a clear testament to Apple’s hardware and manufacturing prowess. It’s tempting to wonder just how light Apple could have made an iPhone 5 with the old 3.5-inch screen…

Speaking of the screen, I was one of the skeptics about a larger screen making sense on the iPhone. My rationale was two-fold. First, I didn’t want to see the type of fragmentation that Android users and developers face because of the various device sizes in that ecosystem. Second, I just loved the 3.5-inch screen size. It seemed perfect with regard to ergonomics.

In both cases, Apple did something smart.

In terms of fragmentation, Apple avoids any major issues by allowing developers to target the 4-inch screen if they choose to, but only as a part of the same app binary from which they target the 3.5-inch screens. In other words, there will be no apps that only run on the iPhone 5′s screen — at least not any time soon (I do imagine 4-inch screens will eventually be the norm). I’m told that Apple has no plans to enforce that developers must target the 4-inch screen either. It’s fully up to them.

And if they don’t target the new screen, it’s really not a big deal. The iPhone 5 simply takes the standard-sized apps and runs them in “letterbox” mode with small black bars along the top and bottom (or sides, if the device is horizontal) of the screen. Think of it like an iPhone app running on the iPad — only the effect is much less pronounced since the iPhone 5 screen is far smaller than an iPad screen (4-inches versus. 9.7-inches). In fact, on the black iPhone 5, it can be hard to notice the black bars at all thanks to the black front of the device. The bars just blend in.

One nice side effect of the letterboxing is that the iOS system elements can still use the larger screen. So, for example, when Push Notifications come in, they flip down from the top of the screen and settle perfectly above the 3.5-inch app (as opposed to on top of it).

Still, I’m sure that many developers will target the 4-inch screen because I suspect the iPhone 5 will quickly become the best-selling iPhone yet (not to mention the new 4-inch iPod touch coming next month). Apple worked with a couple companies leading up to the iPhone 5 unveiling (OpenTable and CNN), and I’m told it was fairly easy for them to get 4-inch apps ready to go.

In fact, at the time of this writing, there are already several iPhone 5-tailored apps that have gone live in the App Store (which is pretty crazy since most of those developers haven’t actually seen the iPhone 5 in person yet). Reeder, Path, Tweetbot, Well, Lift, Highlight, GroupMe, and Tiny Post are all good to go. As are all of Apple’s major apps, as you might imagine. (Sadly, Twitter itself, which just pushed a major 5.0 upgrade today, apparently didn’t get the 4-inch memo — even though they’re baked right into iOS. Of course, neither did the newly native-app-focused Facebook.)

Most of the apps listed above are simply making use of the longer screen for vertical list-style display purposes. But I’m personally most interested in the apps that use the extra space to get creative with regard to UI/UX. CNN is one of those, as they brought some elements of their iPad app over to the iPhone 5 app (though that updated version is not live just yet).

The other smart thing Apple did with regard to the 4-inch screen was only make it taller. That is, the screen on the iPhone 5 is the exact same width as every iPhone that came before it. It’s simply longer. This minimizes the ergonomic impact of the change (as well as the impact on developers).

To be quite honest, it’s something I’m still getting used to. I don’t find my thumb straining to reach any of the upper touch elements, but I do find myself holding the device slightly differently (cue the “you’re holding it wrong” jokes) than I held previous iPhones. I’m fairly certain this is just something I’ll get used to over time. No big deal. (Though slightly annoying is the tendancy to tap the top of the screen with the 3.5-inch apps which no longer scrolls you to the top of the app, because you have to actually tap the time area.)

I very much appreciate the actual vertical screen real estate within apps such as Mail and Calendar, which now can display much more info. It’s also great for any text-heavy app. And of course, the web.

The human body already has a highly efficient cooling system: As perspiration evaporates, it draws heat away from the body. Wicking fabrics facilitate this process by distributing sweat evenly over the fabric, so that it dries more quickly. Despite devising cheats, such as menthol-like chemical coatings added to fabrics, companies have never actually improved upon the body’s natural cooling process. Designers at Columbia Sportswear have now made a fabric that does.

The wicking polyester base of the Omni-Freeze ZERO T-shirt is embedded with thousands of 0.15-inch hydrophilic polymer rings (a men’s medium has more than 41,000 of them). As the base spreads sweat, the rings absorb moisture and expand into three-dimensional doughnuts. In order to swell, the rings require energy, which they gather as body heat. In tests, the shirt was up to 10 degrees cooler against the wearer’s skin than shirts made from any other material.

Designers at Brooks worked with a team at the Loughborough University Sports Technology Institute in the U.K. to ensure runners wearing the Nightlife Jacket III remain visible to drivers in any light. The darker the surroundings, the more heavily eyes rely on contrast to pick out objects, so the team added black stripes to the arms and shoulders to offset the fluorescent base and better outline runners. Brooks NightLife Jacket III $115

Assalamualaikum and selamat berpuasa..

As my first entry is a task from the lecturer...so pliz keep reading..hehe..ngee :)

       Canon EOS M  mirrorless interchangeable lens camera with APS-C sensor




  With offerings from competitors including Nikon, Panasonic, Olympus, Samsung and Sony already on the market - some for a couple of years now - it was only a matter of time before Canon launched its first mirrorless interchangeable lens camera. Now, after years of rumor and speculation it's finally here. The EOS M is a compact-sized camera with a large sensor which works with new EF-M mount lenses (or EF lenses with an adapter). • • • • • View all Rather than settle on a small sensor to keep the compact form-factor, (like the Nikon 1 system), or even Micro Four Thirds (like Panasonic or Olympus), Canon decided to go with the Sony NEX approach of cramming a APS-C sensor and a fair chunk of DSLR technology into the EOS M, which is Canon's first "compact system camera (CSC)." The APS-C 18-megapixel hybrid CMOS sensor means that, with the right lens, users can shoot images with a shallow depth of field. The larger sensor (22.3 x 14.9 mm/0.87 x 0.58 in) also means the Canon EOS M can turn out turn out DSLR-quality images and should perform well in low light, with a native ISO range of 100-12,800 expandable to 25600 H mode. The camera includes the DIGIC 5 processor, as used in the Rebel T4i/EOS 650D, providing 14-bit image processing, while a Scene Intelligent Auto mode adjusts the camera settings according to the subject and shooting conditions. 

 A Hybrid AF System, which features 31 AF points and also appeared in the T4i/650D, gives speedy and accurate AF when shooting stills or movies.The camera can also shoot a maximum of 4.3 frames per second in continuous mode, or 3 fps with autofocus tracking. Another feature borrowed from the T4i/650D is the 3.0-inch Clear View LCD II touch screen on the rear that allows users to select different shooting modes and settings via the on-screen icons. The 1,040 K dot screen features a smudge-resistant coating and responds to gestures including swipe, pinch to zoom, touch to focus and touch to shoot. Video recording options include Full-HD with stereo sound at 1920 x 1080 (30, 25, or 24 fps) while a Video Snapshot Mode promises to help users create movies in-camera, with a professionally edited feel.

 Along with the EOS M, Canon has also announced two lenses for the new EF-M mount, the EF-M 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM standard zoom and the EF-M 22mm f/2 STM pancake lens. Despite featuring Stepper Motor technology for smooth AF performance (even when shooting video) both lenses are smaller than their typical EF counterparts. Should you want a bit more choice when it comes to lenses (or you already have a load of Canon glass), the Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS M has also been announced that allows you to attach any Canon EF or EF-S lens to the EOS M. While the Canon EOS M has no built-in flash, it will ship with the new Speedlite 90EX flash unit as standard (in some countries). The Speedlite 90EX is as compact as the EOS M and weighs just 50 g (1.7 oz). Canon claims it is an ideal general-purpose flash for everyday use and it can also be used as a wireless master to control multiple flash guns.

 Measuring 108.6 x 66.5 x 32.3 mm (4.28 x 2.62 x 1.27 in) and weighing 298 g (10.5 oz), the Canon EOS M will be available from October 2012 in red, silver, white and black priced at US$800 with the 22 mm lens. The EF-M 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 IS STM will cost $300 and the EF-M 22mm f/2 STM $250. The Speedlite 90EX will retail for $150 with the Canon Mount Adapter EF-EOS M $200.
