Any mail going between the villages must be secured. If not it will be confiscated by the government.</p> <p>Now, you want to send a diamond ring to your fiancee. You have an infinite number of boxes and an infinite supply of locks and keys. Same goes to your fiancee. However, between the locks and keys, none of you have any common locks and keys, ie you and your fiancee have an entirely different set of locks and keys.</p> <p>How are you going to send this diamond ring to her?</p> <p>If you were to send it in a box without a lock, the government will take it. If you just send the ring as it is, the government will take it. </p> <p>You can use an infinite number of boxes and use as many locks as you want on one single box. However, the boxes are indestructible and the locks cannot be picked or smashed (ie the only way to unlock a box is using a key). You and your fiancee can also have as many exchanges as you want.</p> <p>I'm getting answers in tomorrow's lecture! :) </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=280&page=3#post-5497 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 17:55:35 +0000 orenzai 5497@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo2YPNhqLoA&amp;feature=player_embedded" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lo2YPNhqLoA&amp;feature=player_embedded</a> </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=156&page=3#post-5496 Tue, 27 Jul 2010 11:33:53 +0000 orenzai 5496@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>Pain in the ass.

The article argues that they think in sign, and sign is a form of language. So yes, action and visual cues is possible, it is. </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=452#post-5486 Tue, 20 Jul 2010 15:50:16 +0000 kimmmmmmm 5486@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>Technically I don't agree. Like think of how we learn languages. They have sign language. We have English. I don't know. I don't see why there would be any difference. Like how did we go from knowing what an apple is to understanding abstract things like you said, patriotism. We used words, they can use appointed signs. But yeah, then again I'm no expert. </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=450#post-5485 Tue, 20 Jul 2010 11:34:08 +0000 kimmmmmmm 5485@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>I'm sorry but I still can't give you anything that would make sense to you because you have not explained your point of view. All you have done is reacted to what I had typed in 5 minutes, taking it as my absolute opinion on the issue, passing judgement on various statements and on my character, without giving any reasons to back up your statements. </p> <p>So if you would be so kind to please explain. </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=450#post-5484 Tue, 20 Jul 2010 09:19:46 +0000 Lord 5484@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>Ugh.</p> <p>Lets make a list =D</p> <p>Article covers:</p> <p>Female actions:<br /> Wanting sex -&gt; pregnancy<br /> Pressured into sex -&gt; pregnant<br /> Just want sex? -? Marry him</p> <p>Porn Effect:<br /> Watched -&gt; Curiosity -&gt; Addict<br /> Watched -&gt; Curiosity -&gt; Experimentation<br /> -------<br /> First gripe.<br /> Biased as the article only covers the actions of females.<br /> Its all negatives and does not look at the flipside.<br /> The article does not even cover what other factors led to them engaging in sexual activity.</p> <p>I just loved it when the girl was questioned on whether she enjoyed sex and she spouted of saying she is safe. Hilarious.</p> <p>---------------<br /> What happened to the value of one's virginity?<br /> Its overrated. You overrate it.</p> <p>A lot of guys go 'if you love me, do it'. - Girls can't do this too? One sided much?</p> <p>'If you can't say no to your boyfriend/girlfriend, then your yes doesn't mean anything'. - This is a pathetic statement. When would be a good time to say no then? why Say no? Why not just have at it like rabbits?</p> <p>There was this whole chain of cause and effect thingos that I heard once. - Oh...my...</p> <p>Mother Teresa - HAHAHAHAHA? Really? Mother Teresa? Im sorry but I have nothing but contempt for this slag and blight on the human mind.</p> <p>Anyway, so what is the cause of the increase in premarital sex? : Pornography.<br /> Seriously? Is this your own personal view or that of the article?</p> <p>There was this pedophile (need to look that up) - Cool! Now all I need is to pull out my bat, beat someone to death and say I saw it on GTA! Wow! Please think.</p> <p>Yah I'm sorry for the rant but this is an issue that is very close to my heart. Sigh.<br /> -Again, why is it close to your heart? </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=26&page=16#post-5483 Tue, 20 Jul 2010 09:12:49 +0000 MiSeLoCiN 5483@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>the person above me is CORRECT! </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=26&page=16#post-5482 Tue, 20 Jul 2010 08:22:14 +0000 orenzai 5482@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>The person above me is in Kuching, I suppose? </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=433#post-5481 Tue, 20 Jul 2010 08:06:39 +0000 orenzai 5481@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>Woa!

From the <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748704913304575371001840553096.html">Wall Street Journal</a>:</p> <blockquote><p>I was the U.S. ambassador to Malaysia when Mr. Anwar first was arrested and put on trial, and everything I knew then and know now leads me to conclude that this trial also is an attempt to sideline him politically.</p> <p>Already convicted by the government-controlled media, Mr. Anwar and his defense team have been denied access to the evidence that the government possesses, including police and medical reports, surveillance tapes, and even the witness list. Malaysia does not have a jury system. The verdict will be rendered by one judge, appointed by the same government that wants to remove Mr. Anwar from the political scene.</p> <p>While a handful of human rights groups and some Australian parliamentarians have condemned the trial, there has been little interest at the broader international level. The Obama administration has been silent.</p> <p>When I visited Malaysia last month, it was clear that Mr. Anwar and most observers expect a guilty verdict in August. At that point, the question is whether he remains free on bail during his appeal or is jailed immediately.</p> <p>A charismatic campaigner, Mr. Anwar led his coalition to near victory in Malaysia's last parliamentary elections in 2008, when the opposition took 47% of the popular vote and gained 62 seats. The government's new political game plan seems to be to put Mr. Anwar in jail and the opposition in disarray, call snap elections, and ride to victory. </p></blockquote> <p>And then, interestingly enough, we get a glimpse of how foreigners view our country:</p> <blockquote><p>Today Malaysia gets little attention in the world press. <strong>The lingering image is of an Asian economic success story, a moderate Islamic country and aspiring democracy, and a multiracial society in which harmony prevails.</strong> Unfortunately, that is not the case today. Malaysia is a nation adrift.</p> <p>Once one of the world's dynamos, Malaysia's economy has underperformed over the past decade, with an average annual growth rate of 4.5%. Much of that growth was the result of government spending, which has pushed Malaysia's debt level to 54% of GDP. Foreign direct investment (FDI) has remained relatively flat over the past 15 years, while flows into Thailand, Indonesia and Vietnam have soared. To make matters worse, Malaysia experienced a net outflow of $6 billion in FDI capital in 2008.</p> <p>Malaysia desperately needs to upgrade its skills base and innovation capabilities, but almost 500,000 Malaysians—nearly 2% of the population—left their country for good between 2007 and 2009. Malaysian experts believe most of these émigrés were skilled ethnic Chinese and Indian Malaysians, concerned by economic decline and growing racial and religious tensions.</p> <p>Worried about losing political support, the ruling party has responded by appealing to the baser instincts of the country's Malay Muslim majority. For example, it told Malaysia's Christians that they may no longer use the word "Allah" for God, even though the word existed in Arabic long before Islam arose. A new militant group called Perkasa, which claims that Malay rights are under threat from the Chinese and Indian minorities, has won backing from former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad and other members of the ruling party.</p> <p>For Malaysia and the world, there is more at stake in Mr. Anwar's trial than whether one person is convicted. Malaysia is at a crossroads. The road that it chooses matters not only for some 30 million Malaysians, but for the entire world. The country could be a model for the 600 million people of Southeast Asia and for the entire Muslim world, if it returns to the promising course it was on 15 years ago. But a guilty verdict for Mr. Anwar means that the corruption and cronyism that now pervade Malaysia, its lack of political freedom and its economic decline, will continue. The country's non-Malay citizens will continue to seek a better haven overseas.</p> <p>In 1998, Mr. Anwar said, "If this can happen to me, it can happen to anyone." That is no less true today. If Mr. Anwar is denied his freedom, then Malaysians will continue to be denied their freedom and the country its promise. </p></blockquote> <p><em>Mr. Malott was the U.S. ambassador to Malaysia from 1995 to 1998. </em></p> <p>I thought this article to be well-written, concise, and to the point. I also think this unforgiving look at our country merited sharing. I sure as hell hope Mallot is wrong, because what he says reads true, and that makes me sad. </p> <p>=( Oh Malaysia, what has become of you? </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=26&page=16#post-5471 Mon, 19 Jul 2010 18:56:51 +0000 dienasty 5471@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>The person above me is mistaken about the person above him - Orenzai is a guy! </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=446&page=2#post-5470 Mon, 19 Jul 2010 18:56:03 +0000 dienasty 5470@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>I recommend that you take a rest, Ling, before coming back to read the question properly - four 10-hour-shifts do bad things to the mind. ;-) /patpat </p> http://undergroundsquare.com/topic.php?id=452#post-5469 Mon, 19 Jul 2010 18:53:50 +0000 dienasty 5469@http://undergroundsquare.com/ <p>I don't think that's possible.
