Romantic Love Seen as Motivation @ Drive Rather Than Emotional State

Image
By Randall Parker Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) brain scans of people in the early stages of romantic love show romantic love is less about emotions and more about rewards and the parts of the brain that control motivation. * BETHESDA, Md. (May 31, 2005) – You just can't tell where you might find love these days. A team led by a neuroscientist, an anthropologist and a social psychologist found love-related neurophysiological systems inside a magnetic resonance imaging machine. They detected quantifiable love responses in the brains of 17 young men and women who each described themselves as being newly and madly in love. * The multidisciplinary team found that early, intense romantic love may have more to do with motivation, reward and "drive" aspects of human behavior than with the emotions or sex drive. Brain systems were activated that humans share with other mammals. So the researchers think "early-stage romantic love is possibly a developed form o...

Typical Malay Dishes

Image
This is quite typical malay dishes. Normally take during lunch and dinner time. They are reflected to Kelantanese or East Cost Malaysian cuisine. Let me introduce the main course here; Nasi dagang, best to serve with chicken/tuna curry with cucumber salad. Two types of beras were used that called “beras nasi dage” (cerise colour) and “beras jemah/putih” (white rice). Mixed rice with special herbs called “halba”, garlic slice and ginger have to steam for almost 30min. The curry for Nasi Dagang was different with normal curry because it has kerisik (fried coconut) and the tuna/tongkol have to singgang first (singgang = plain soup with onion and asam keping). The name for dagang means for explorer, and hence people packed a food to be eaten in a long journey. As for salad, cucumber, onion and chili were sliced and mix together with salt, sugar and vinegar. ************************************************************ Then we have budu a.k.a anchovies source, a trade mark for Kelantan.

Aku melilau cari staff2 aku yang lain..mana nih ramai yg belum selamatkan diri..aku minta Nuar tengok dan selamatkan mereka..2 minit kendian ambulance sampai, rupanya ada org pengsan terperangkap dalam makmal UB, sejurus kemudian datang keret...

During last weekend I was in the Golden Triangle of Kuala Lumpur with my sister and younger brother. Well...everybody know Bt. Bintang, isn't it? Here we go, I got to purchase some devices for my laptop. I bought Western Digital external hard dics of 250GB at RM3++. Perhaps it was reasonable price... Accidently I got to buy PC accessories as well, so ding dong ding dong I paid for SonicGear earphone speaker for RM20 and Rabbit & Berry optical mouse for RM20. Guest why??? Actually I shouldn't used office mouse for personal..he he..so right now I got rabbit instead of mouse. I have to test my earphone speaker to do an internet call..Sham said it was free while we're abroad..hi hi hi...anymore free services for me? I hope this cheaper device could be useful. I'm desperately need for external hard disc coz I got to back up my folders in my office's PC..it was contaminated by porn virus. I've no idea why this virus attacking my folders..stolen my data etc. Hermm....

Liburan Minggu

Image
Don't know where to go? Don't know how to spent weekend? Here we go...kalo tiba-tiba bulan tu bajet ciput, ni ada destinasi bajet terulung di Klang Valey. Putrajaya is the most magnificient place to be. It was developed since yr 2000 and became the centre for all ministry under the Malaysian government. Still nostalgic for not being there for almost 6 years after I left campus life. Very near to Bangi (UKM), Serdang (UPM), Sepang (KLIA) and Kajang (satay Samuri). The place where my life began...with an extraordinary sight- seeing, full of modern architechtures. Sunset momento here would be the greatest creation of God..See my photo dude!!

Weekend

Planning for shopping at IKEA, watching movie and some window shops. In the evening drove to Mutiara Damansara ~5km from Subang Bestari. Pay for RM22 for 2 tickets of "Wanted". The movie was started by 7.25pm..got confused either Hancock or Wanted??? Hancock will be by 7.50pm so we got time for solat Maghbrib. Finally decission made for Wanted but should be late for solat. Hancock was reserved for next week..ha..hah..the time already 6pm. While waiting for show time, we went to The Curve. For the 1st sight we just planning for window shopping, but I end up for Esprit Jeans New Arrival..Cit! RM2++ flew away...followed by payment for Kak's jeans RM1++...flew again..Last two weeks bought Applemint blous, XES shoes etc. So this month become a huge expended activity in my shopping chart. By 7pm rushed to Cineleasure for solat. Movie already start by the time we got in. Full of action without meaning...just action????? So where's the story itself? Haiiyaa....Tipah tertipu.....
