Ian Usher - Selling His Life in eBay


Have you heard of Ian Usher? The British guy from Perth, Australia who's going to sell off his life in eBay. The auction in eBay will be closed at noon on this coming 29th.June. Usher hoping the final beat will hit up to $500,000 for him to fund a new life.


Usher, who is from County Durham in Britain but moved to Perth in 2001, set up a website (http://www.alife4sale.com) for the sale. The site opens cheerily: "Hi there, my name is Ian Usher, and I have had enough of my life! I don't want it any more!". His decision followed the break-up of his five-year marriage and the end of a 12-year relationship with Laura. He has declined to give details of the break-up but Laura is now with someone else. She has not commented publicly on the auction.


Usher said he got the idea from a friend who had the notion of selling his life through a newspaper advertisement during a bleak period but never did it. He says he's not the first person to put his life on the block.

Factory Life

It's heavy to write about Factory Life.

In positive view of point, mass production in Factory could solve huge demands from cloud. It could bring down the cost, so that you and me no need to pay with higher price for our desire items. Imagine if no factory going to process milk, then all of us have to feed a cow at home. Of cause it won't happen. Whenever there is demand, there will create the supplier. This is the basic of Economism.

However, working in Factory is like robot. Repeating the same motion, at the same place without exercising your brain. In fact, they don't want you work with your brain. If you work with your brain, means you are dreaming. Then, your concentration to your motion or activities will be affected. So when you are working, better keep your brain somewhere. All they need is the habits of your motion. When your repeating motion becomes standard, then their output quantity and quality will be standard and easy to be controlled. That's why Standard Deviation is so important in manufacturing statistic.

Wecome to the Robot World.

Manufacuting had already invented Intelligence Robot (i-Robot) long ago.
That's you and me.

Petrol Station Chao caused by Hike Price

The price increased for petrol yesterday had caused chaos scene in every petrol station in Malaysia. Most of the main road was jammed with vehicle lined up from station until 1st. or even 2nd. lane of main road. Drivers temper were getting hot due to traffic jammed and long queue, and angrily at those who jumped queue. In some area in Terengganu, people even prepare equipments to fill up petrol, and polices were assigned to control the chao situation.

Since the petrol price will be revised every month, these kind of chao condition will happen again by end of this month if the price increase again?

On another hands, even though the oil price in world market had shot up to US$ 135, but Malaysia Airlines managing director and chief executive Datuk Seri Idris Jala had commented that there is no shortage of oil in the world and its present price level was driven up by unreal speculation. According to him, as an ex-oilman ( he was a former senior executive with Shell Plc based in London and the Hague for almost 20 years), the fair value of crude oil at present should be only US$40.

Petrol Price Increase to RM2.70 a litre

Is that true ???? RM2.70 /litre??


Effective midnight tonight, the price for each litre of petrol will go up by 78 cents, about 40 % increase from RM1.92 to RM2.70. SMS was flying everywhere. The news spread in seconds.

At first I felt doubt about the SMS, because this morning paper headlines just showing it will only happened in August. And, people all discussing about the floating price application. Who know in the same day the price will go up? Somemore about 40% increased!

About 6:15pm, when passing through down town, found that the town was extremely flooded with vehicles, especially the entrance road to Petrol Station, doesn't matter Shell, Petronas or Mobil station. People queuing up rushing for the petrol, and the scene was like car queuing up in Spielberg's movie "War of the World". The tense was undescribable.
