5 wrong reasons to vote for a candidate
voting for your family members might seem the way for you to support them and you know them well enough, but please consider the option that there might me other person that suit the job
(2) friendship
even if the candidate is your friend, please do not vote for him/her because of that. He/She might be your friend but he/she may not suit the job
(3) race
a very wrong reason to vote. you cannot be racism. race does not determine a good leader
(4) statehood
this is another very wrong reason to vote. come one. we're malaysians and it doesn't even matter where you come from
(5) gender
just because you're a guy/girl doesn't mean you should vote for the same gender as yours. bear in mind that gender doesn't determine leadership
happy voting guys....

Study Schedule/Tips Belajar
- It is important that you set up a regular study schedule, preferably a daily one.
- Make sure that you read the syllabus for the course and adhere to the schedule set by your instructor. The lectures will make much more sense if you read the corresponding text material before attending them.
- As a general rule, you should devote about two hours of study time for each hour you are in a class.
- If you are having troubles with the course, seek the advice of the instructor or other students who have taken the course. You may find it necessary to seek further instruction from experienced students.
- Very often, instructors offer a review sessions in addition to regular class periods.
- Avoid the practice of delaying study until a day or two before the exam. More often or not, this approach has disastrous results.
- Rather than undertake an all-night study session before a test, briefly review the basic concepts and equations and then get a good night's rest.
- Adalah penting bagi anda untuk menetapkan jadual belajar yang teratur, sebaiknya anda meluangkan masa untuk belajar pada setiap hari.
- Pastikan anda membaca sukatan kursus dan mematuhi jadual yang telah anda tetapkan. Kuliah-kuliah akan menjadi lebih mudah difahami sekiranya anda membaca bahan-bahan teks yanf sesuai sebelum mengikuti kuliah tersebut.
- Anda seharusnya meluangkan kira-kira dua jam waktu belajar bagi setipa jam anda berada dalam kelas.
- Jika anda menghadapi masalah dengan kursus tersebut, dapatkan nasihat daripada pensyarah yang berkenaan atau pelajar yang telah mengambil kursus tersebut. Adakalanya, anda perlu untuk meminta nasihat dan pandangan daripada pelajar yang telah mengambil kursus tersebut.
- Adakalanya, pensyarah akan mengadakan sesi ulang kaji selain daripada masa mengajar biasa.
- Elakkan amalan mengulangkaji satu atau dua hari sebelum ujian. Amalan ini lebih banyak mendatangkan keburukkan daripada kebaikkan.
- Sebaiknya, daripada mengadakan sesi belajar sepanjang malam sebelum ujian, anda menyemak semula konsep-konsep asas dan persamaan dan selepas itu tidur dan mendapatkan rehat yang secukupnya.

Disappearing Jobs: High-Paying Careers With No Future
1. Judge
Politicians can argue whether the best quality for a judge is empathy or an ability to call balls and strikes, but here's a different perspective: What you really need is patience. By 2018, the BLS predicts that there will be 700 fewer jobs for judges, magistrate judges, and magistrates, than there were in 2008, thanks mainly to budget cuts. And since the average tenure for a judge is 14 years, turnover is glacial. "Years ago, some left to become general counsel in the private sector, where they could triple their salary, but since the economic downturn, they're staying longer on the bench," says Tamara Dillon, who researches the occupation for the BLS.
2. Fashion Designer
Call it Project Turnaway. By 2018, only 200 more designers will find work in a field that employed 22,700 people as of 2008. That's about 2 percent of the number who applied to become Project Runway contestants in 2009, estimates Carol-Hannah Whitfield, who was a finalist on the show that year. "The world doesn't need another designer," Whitfield says.
3. Insurance Underwriter
Blame it on the software. New programs allow underwriters to take on three times as much work as in the past, collapsing the need for more hires. As a result, the BLS projects that the number of people employed in the field will decline by 4 percent, or 4,300 jobs, by 2018. "[The underwriter] just punches in data, and it spits out, say, whether a potential homebuyer is approved or not," says Henry Kasper, supervisory economist at the BLS. Growth in the insurance industry isn't exactly exploding either, further undermining the career outlook for underwriters.
4. Travel Agent
Call it the Attack of the Roaming Gnome: Online sites such as Travelocity, Priceline.com, Expedia, and Orbitz have decimated the ranks of travel agents as consumers increasingly book their own trips. The BLS expects 1,200 fewer travel agents to be employed in 2018 than in 2008. And the number of traditional travel agencies has been sliced in half — from a peak of 44,000 in 1997 to about 20,000 today, according to Douglas Quinby of PhoCusWright, a travel industry research company based in Sherman, Connecticut.
5. Newspaper Reporter
Read it and weep: According to the BLS, a whopping 4,400 jobs will disappear by 2018 (out of 69,400 total in 2008). That's more than three times the number of newsroom employees at The New York Times. The bad news for print can be summed up in one word: Internet. "Some of the print people are finding jobs online," says Lauren Csorny, an economist at the BLS. "But there aren't enough to make up for the losses." No wonder that newspaper reporters ranked No. 184 out of 200 jobs, one slot above stevedore, in CareerCast.com's annual JobsRated survey.
6. Broadcast Announcer
he play-by-play for this occupation isn't pretty. Consolidation has eliminated many jobs already, and technology is hijacking off-air tasks, such as editing, once performed by announcers (and future announcers paying their dues). Add the increased use of syndication and the growth of satellite radio and the picture is even bleaker. By 2018, broadcasting is expected to lose 2,400 radio and TV announcer jobs.
7. Plant Manager
Automation and offshoring will decimate the ranks of production managers by 2018. According to the BLS, employment will drop by 11,900 jobs from a 2008 total of 156,100. With faster machines and better productivity, one plant can do the work of two, squeezing managers out. Increased imports of manufactured goods will do additional damage. With 50 percent of the textile industry moving off-shore, for example, half the plant managers in that sector are at risk of losing their jobs. The outlook is equally bleak for managers in the computer, electronics, and auto parts industries.
8. Chemist
Nearly half of all chemists are employed in manufacturing firms — plastics, pesticides, and paint, to name a few. And that's a bummer for them, because manufacturing companies are continuing to outsource their R&D and testing to small, specialized firms, cutting job opportunities for in-house chemists. The profession lost 42,000 jobs from 2008 to 2009, according to Chemical and Engineering News, and the BLS projects only a 2 percent rise in the total number of chemists employed by 2018.
9. Economist
The Federal government is the largest employer of economists in the country. More than half — 53 percent — of all economists in the U.S. work for declining government sectors, so Uncle Sam's not hiring a lot of economists just now. "Econ" is a hot college major, but most of those newly-minted grads won't find work as traditional economists. Instead, they'll end up in niche sectors in business, finance, insurance, and education. Those set on working as conventional economists better have a Plan B, or a Plan Ph.D, because they'll need one. The economists at BLS do tell us that by 2018, an additional 900 economists will be employed — so the outlook is not as dismal for dismal scientists as it is for, say, travel agents. But if current trends continue, the future isn't promising. "You look at the last 10 to15 years and it has been flat," says Henry Kasper of the BLS. "There's little reason to think it's going to get better."
10. CEO
OK, it's not a profession, but it's worth keeping in mind if you aspire to the corner office: Mergers and streamlining will make the climb to the top harder than K2, as companies combine and jobs are eliminated. The BLS projects that there will be 5,500 fewer CEOs by 2018. To boost your odds, consider Rosetta Stone; CEO candidates should be fluent in at least two languages, says Patricia Tate of the BLS. So if you speak Spanish, Arabic, or Chinese, félicitations.
