Saladin itu Salahuddin Al-Ayyubi

Anda semua pernah tengok animasi bersiri Saladin ni??....

Me ikut la juga cerita ini di TV1 hari sabtu dan siaran ulangan pada hari Ahad. Apa yang menjadi tanda tanya dalam kepala Me ialah siapa Saladin ni? Dan kenapah kisah hidupnya diangkat dan di siarkan dalam bentuk siri animasi. Dek kerana itu Me buat sedikit ulangkaji dan hasilnya adalah seperti di bawah :

Nama sebenarnya Yusuf bin Ayyub (1137 -1193) mengasaskan dinasti Ayyubi bangsa Kurdis di Mesir dan Syria. Di Barat beliau dikenali sebagai Saladin. Salahuddin dibesarkan sama seperti anak-anak orang Kurd biasa. Salahuddin dilahirkan di dalam sebuah keluarga Kurdish di Tikrit dan dihantar ke Damsyik untuk menghabiskan pelajarannya. Ayahnya, Najm ad-Din Ayyub, ialah gabenor wilayah Baalbek. Selama 10 tahun Salahuddin tinggal di Damsyik di kawasan istana milik Nur ad-Din. Pendidikannya juga seperti orang lain, belajar ilmu-ilmu sains di samping seni peperangan dan mempertahankan diri. 

Beliau terkenal dalam kalangan Nasrani dan Muslim dengan kebolehannya sebagai ketua dan ketangkasannya dalam peperangan yang disertai juga dengan sifat kesateriaan dan belas kasihannya semasa Perang Salib.

Salahudin Al-Ayubi atau tepatnya Sholahuddin Yusuf bin Ayyub, Salah Ad-Din Ibn Ayyub atau Saladin/salahadin (menurut lafal orang Barat) adalah salah satu pahlawan besar dalam tharikh (sejarah) Islam.

Echo Smartpen 8GB

Pen pintar Echo Smartpen keluaran Livescribe Inc ini baru menjengah pasaran tempatan dan penggunaannya dirasakan belum terlalu meluas. Gadget ini sama macam pen biasa dengan dakwat yang membantu anda menulis atau melukis di atas kertas atau buku nota dot (kertas khas). Kemudian ia boleh dipindah naik ke dalam perisian Livescribe Desktop. Pen ini menyimpan setiap apa yang anda tulis di atas kertas terbabit dan disimpan di dalam sistem memori dalamannya.

Sebelum dipindah ke dalam komputer, terlebih dulu anda dikehendaki memasang perisian sokongannya yang perlu dipindah turun dari laman web www.livescribe.com/install dan ikut arahan pemasangannya. Sebaik kita melancarkan perisian Livescribe Desktop, komputer akan mula membaca memori di dalam pen pintar itu dan dipaparkan di atas skrin mengikut halaman.

Pen ini mampu menyimpan apa saja yang anda tulis, lukis dan mungkin conteng di atas buku dot itu walaupun dalam keadaan kadang kala dakwat tidak keluar terutamanya pada awal penulisan. Bila tak keluar dakwat, kita akan ulang tulis di atas tempat yang sama. Proses itu semuanya akan tertera semula di atas skrin dan nampaklah imej berganda.Uniknya, ia tidak berfungsi jika ditulis di atas kertas lain. Itu bermakna ia mesti bergerak secara berpasangan iaitu mesti ada pen dan ada buku dot itu.

Penguji berpendapat ia sesuai dan kaedah baru dalam mendigitalkan tulisan tangan. Dalam pada itu pelbagai aplikasi sokongan boleh dipindah turun dari laman web Livescribe Applications Store termasuk kamus, terjemahan, alat produktiviti, game dan sebagainya.

Antara fungsi lain yang mengagumkan ialah ciri keselamatan dengan kata laluan ke atas nota yang ditulis dan Pencasts yang membolehkan pengguna berkongsi nota sebagai fail pdf, audio atau pencasts. Dan boleh juga berkongsi di laman sosial termasuk Facebook.

Peri pentingnya mammogram

What is mammography?
The mammography debate!

Mammography is a procedure involving special x-rays of the breast. It is a simple procedure, which can detect breast cancer before it can be felt.  In a typical mammogram, two views of the breast are taken by compressing the breast between two plates in two different directions. With careful compression, this is not a painful procedure. Adequate compression is necessary to ensure good quality x-rays of the breasts. The idea is to flatten the breast as much as possible, thereby spreading the tissue out making any abnormal details easier to spot with a minimum of radiation. 

Currently this is the single most effective method to detect breast changes that may be cancer, long before physical symptoms can be seen or felt. 

In Malaysia, mammograms are performed by a trained female radiographer in mammography facilities licensed by the Ministry of Health. 

No medical test is always 100% accurate and mammography is no exception. The main drawback of mammography is that its ability to pick up lesions is limited by the density of the breast tissue; hence it is not so useful in most young women where the breast is dense.  In older women, especially above 50 years, the dense breast tissue is replaced by fat, and therefore mammography can easily detect any abnormalities. 

However, every patient is asked a set of questions and the mammographer examines the breasts as well or the referring doctor may write the relevant physical findings and a radiologist normally would correlate the findings. A lump is never ignored just because it does not show on the mammogram. There will be always be further assessment. 

After a mammogram, sometimes, the radiologist will perform an ultrasound of the breast on the patient. One of the reasons is to review a patient with dense breasts and therefore, dense mammograms. Not all young patients have dense breasts and not all older ladies have fatty replaced breasts.

Another disadvantage is that a mammography facility is relatively expensive, requires trained mammographers, requires a trained and experienced radiologist to interpret the results and requires dedicated mammography machines that are well maintained and regularly calibrated to ensure high quality mammograms are produced. Therefore, the availability of mammography facilities will also determine women’s access to this early detection procedure.  

In Malaysia, mammography services are now available in almost all the larger government hospitals in each state. Steps are being taken to ensure all main hospitals will be equipped. Quality assurance is a must in all facilities, private centres included.

Mimpi dan kehilangan

Ya Allah..........

Kenapa la ak didatangi mimpi yang sama berulang kali...
Mimpi yang ak xmampu hadapi di dalam kehidupan realiti ku...
Semalam ak didatangi lagi dengan mimpi itu....
Apa kah petunjuk yang ingin Kau sampai kan...
Atau mungkin ini hanya mainan syaitan yang Engkau laknati...
Hati ku akan rasa berdebar-debar bila mana memikirkan mimpi2 itu...
Takut ianya menjadi realiti...
Walaupun ak tahu ak harus terima dan percaya pada qada' dan qadar Mu...
Ak hanya mampu berdoa agar dia sihat dan dipanjangkan umur...
Amin.
