Photoshop Tutorial 1 (Page 1): Playing with Layers and Layer Modes


Filter effects in Photoshop are something that anyone can play with, they are built into the programme and you can be as artistically challenged as you like. This tutorial that I have come up with, is the best way that I could think of to show the basics of working with layers and layer modes which is the foundation knowledge needed for most work that you will ever do in Photoshop.

Professional designers try to avoid filters as much as possible because they are too much of a cliché, especially if overused, but the effects created from using them are undeniably incredible. Playing with filters is not an exact science and the need to show techniques step-by-step is not necessary, because the fun is in the experimenting - believe me, none of us will come up with the same image at the end and that is due to the fact, that in addition to using the filters, we will be using layers modes to enhance the effects. I also wouldn't be surprised if you didn't complete the tutorial to the end, because when you have grasped the concept you'll want to go steaming off ahead on your own mission.




This is the picture that I have been playing around with, lets see how much damage we can do to my kittens. Feel free to use the same image as well if you like, just right click on the image on the link and save it to your computer.
Most importantly have fun!

Setting up the document


  • Start off by opening the image in Photoshop. It all works exactly the same as other programmes. (File >Open - find the image where it is saved on your computer and select it).
  • Make sure that your Layers palette is open and positioned where you want it.
    (Window >Layers - you can drag the title bar to move it so that it is positioned comfortably for you to access easily).
  • Another important palette that you may need for this exercise is the history palette. It is really useful for stepping back stages if you want to delete a few of your most recent moves.
    (Window >History).
  • Double click on the highlighted layer in the palette entitled background.  
  • A 'new layer' window pops up, as shown in the diagram above, select the OK button. (this converts the embedded background image into a layer called 'Layer 0' and unlocks it - you will notice the little lock icon on the right disappears).  
  • Creating additional layers

    Now I would like to create new layers of the image so that I can have duplicate copies of it.
    • Click on 'layer 0' (the curser changes into a hand) and drag it to the page icon at the bottom of the palette.  





                 Repeat this as many times as you like - I have made 3 copies for the example in this tutorial...

Final precautions...

When working on numerous layers that you intend on changing drastically, it is imperative that you retain one of the original layers as a backup, hidden and locked, just in case you need it again.

  • Click on your original 'layer 0' so that it is highlighted. Select the upper lock icon near the top of the palette so that the layer gets its lock icon back. That is your safeguard, that layer is now untouchable and if you hold the mouse over the image whilst on that layer and try to click on it, you will get the 'no smoking' symbol without the cigarette ;).
  • On the left hand side of the palette you will be able to see a column of eyes. Those are the switches to turn layers on and off (eye shown = on, blank space = off). Right, now we want to work on 'layer 0 copy 3' so click on the other eyes to turn them off as shown in the image above.

REAL FRIEND TEST!











This is GOOD...I expect it back too!
I especially like the last sentence!!!!!!

1. A simple friend, when visiting, acts like a guest.
A real friend opens your refrigerator and helps himself
and doesn't feel even the least bit weird shutting your
'beer/Pepsi drawer' with her/his foot!




2. A simple friend has never seen you cry.
A real friend shoulder is soggy from your tears..




3. A simple friend doesn't know your parents' first
names.
A real friend has their phone numbers
in his address book.




4. A simple friend brings a bottle of wine to your
party.
A real friend comes early to help you cook and
stays late to help you clean.




5. A simple friend hates it when you call after
they've gone to bed.
A real friend asks you why you took so long to
call.




6. A simple friend seeks to talk with you about your
problems.
A real friend seeks to help you with your problems.




7. A simple friend wonders about your romantic
history.
A real friend could blackmail you with it!




8. A simple friend thinks the friendship is over when
you have an argument.
A real friend calls you after you had a fight.




9. A simple friend expects you to always be there for
them.
A real friend expects to always be there for you!




10. A simple friend reads this e-mail and deletes it.
A real friend passes it on and sends it back to you!




Pass this on to anyone you care about.......if you
get it back you have no beginning, no end.

It keeps us together, like our Circle of Friends.
Today I pass this on to you. Pass it on to someone
who is a friend to you..




INSTANTLY WHEN YOU RECEIVE THIS LETTER, YOU'RE
REQUESTED TO SEND IT
TO AT LEAST 10 PEOPLE, INCLUDING THE PERSON WHO
SENT IT TO YOU.




When you are down to nothing ...
God is up to something.


"Never frown, even when you are sad,
because you never know who is
falling in love with your smile. "

Hargailah isteri anda......(sape yang ade isterila…)


Mulianya seorang isteri disisi Allah...
Dan betapa berharganya wanita yang bergelar isteri
ini pada keluarga, suami dan anak-anak
Rugi dan binasalah suami-suami yang tidak menghargai isteri
mereka *kerana isteri inilah yang akan membantu mereka di akhirat kelak.*
Biarlah buruk mana isteri anda,
sayangilah mereka......

Beruntungnya seorang wanita yang ada rahim ini ialah dia bekerja
dengan Tuhan.... jadi 'kilang ' manusia.
Tiap-tiap bulan dia diberi cuti bergaji penuh....
7 sehingga 15 hari sebulan dia tak wajib sembahyang
tetapi Allah anggap diwaktu itu sembahyang terbaik darinya.
Cuti bersalin juga sehingga 60 hari , *
Bila dah bersalin tu, susukanlah anak...jgn takut "kendur" atau menggelebeh
pulak...
Si suami pulak, jgn la berebut dengan anak untuk menyusu pulak….*
Cuti ini bukan cuti suka hati tapi cuti yang Allah beri sebab dia bekerja
dengan Allah ,
Tapi bila dah habis cuti tu..* . layanlah suami..."offer" lah pada suami* ,

Nabi bersabda: *berjimak dgn isteri itu pahala* ...jangan buat deekkk jeee,

Jangan buat alasan itu dan ini pulak….ingat tu si isteri yee!!!
Kata nak pahala lebih…

Orang lelaki tak ada cuti dari sembahyang.. ...
sembahyang wajib baginya dari baligh sehingga habis nyawanya...

Satu lagi berita gembira untuk wanita, Sepanjang dia mengandung
Allah sentiasa mengampunkan dosanya,
Lahir saja bayi seluruh dosanya habis. *
Inilah nikmat Tuhan beri kepada wanita,
jadi kenapa perlu takut nak beranak? *

Marilah kita pegang kepada tali Allah.
Seandainya wanita itu mati sewaktu bersalin, itu dianggap mati syahid, Allah
izinkan terus masuk Syurga.
Untuk orang bukan Islam, dia tak dapat masuk Syurga tapi
Allah beri kelonggaran seksa kubur.* **
Untuk peringatan semua wanita yang bersuami
seluruh kebaikan suaminya, semuanya isteri dapat pahala
tetapi dosa-dosa suami dia tak tanggung.**

Di akhirat nanti seorang wanita solehah akan* *
terperanjat dengan pahala extra yang banyak dia
terima di atas segala kebaikan suaminya yang tak disedari.
Contohnya bila dia redha suaminya pergi berjemaah di masjid
atau ke majlis ilmu, bersedekah.. ganjaran Allah ke atasnya jua*
*Kalau isteri rela berpoligami lagi besar pahalanya... ( double Extra )** .

Bila dia lihat suaminya tengah terhegeh-hegeh di titian
Sirat dia tak nak masuk syurga tanpa suaminya,
jadi dia pun memberi pahalanya kepada
suami untuk lepas masuk syurga.
Di dunia lagi, kalau suami dalam kesusahan
isteri boleh bantu tambah lagi di akhirat.**
Kalau seorang isteri asyik merungut, mulut selalu muncung
terhadap suami dia tak akan dapat pahala extra ini.*

Manakala suami pula mempunyai tugas-tugas berat di dalam dan
di luar rumah, *segala dosa-dosa anak isteri yang tak dididik
dia akan tanggung ditambah lagi dengan dosa-dosa yang lain..*
Dinasihatkan kepada semua wanita supaya faham akan syariat
Allah agar tidak derhaka denganNya.

Ses u ngguhnya wanita dijadikan daripada rusuk kiri lelaki.
Dia bukan dicipta dari kepala ke kaki,juga bukan dari tapak
kaki. Dia dicipta dari sebelah rusuk kiri lelaki supaya dia hampir
kepada kamu(lelaki) ,lengan lelaki dicipta untuk mempertahankan
wanita,dekat dengan hati lelaki untuk disayangi.*

Woman was made from the rib of man,
She was not created from his head to top him,
Nor from his feet to be stepped upon,
She was made from his side to be close to him,
From beneath his arm to be protected by him,
Near his heart to be loved by him. *

"Wahai Tuhan...
ku tak layak ke syurgamu ...
namun tak pula aku sanggup ke nerakamu...
kamilah hamba yang mengharap belas darimu ....

"Ya Allah...
jadikanlah kami hamba-hamba mu yang bertaqwa ...
ampunkan dosa-dosa kami, kedua ibubapa kami,
dosa semua umat-umat islam yang masih hidup mahupun yang telah
meninggal dunia"......

Kubur itu gelap, cahayanya ialah Laa Ilaaha IllalLah..
Jika diletakkan langit dan bumi di sebelah dacing, dan kalimah ini
di sebelah yang satu lagi, pasti lebih berat lagi nilai kalimah 'Laa ilaaha
illalLah' ini.
Rasulullah saw. bersabda (mafhumnya): "Wahai manusia! Ucaplah 'Laa ilaaha
illalLah', kamu pasti berjaya!"

Marilah kita ucapkan kalimah ini:
"Laa ilaaha illallah!" x 10

Setelah ucapkannya sebanyak 10 kali, panjangkan/fowardka n email ini kepada
sekurang- kurangnya 10 orang rakan-rakan anda. Bayangkan betapa besarnya
pahala yang Allah sediakan, hanya untuk usaha kita yang sedikit ini

Why do we fall for someone,
*

*who really isn't for us?..
*

*should we blame ourselves
*

*for falling the wrong one...
*

*OR... should we blame the
*

*one we fell for... Because...
*

*they made us believe that
*

*they are right one for us..! ?*

Strong Leonid Meteor Shower Peaks Early Tuesday Morning

One of the best annual meteor showers will peak in the pre-dawn hours Tuesday, and for some skywatchers the show could be quite impressive.
The best seats are in Asia, but North American observers should be treated to an above average performance of the Leonid meteor shower, weather permitting. The trick for all observers is to head outside in the wee hours of the morning – between 1 a.m. and dawn – regardless where you live.
The Leonids put on a solid show every year, if skies are clear and moonlight does not interfere. This year the moon is near its new phase, and not a factor. For anyone in the Northern Hemisphere with dark skies, away from urban and suburban lighting, the show should be worth getting up early to see.
"We're predicting 20 to 30 meteors per hour over the Americas, and as many as 200 to 300 per hour over Asia," said Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office. Other astronomers who work in the nascent field of meteor shower prediction have put out similar forecasts.
Urban dwellers and suburbanites will see far fewer, as the fainter meteors will be drowned out by local lights.
Behind the Leonids
The Leonids are created by the comet Tempel-Tuttle, which passes through the inner solar system every 33 years on its orbit around the sun. Each time by, it leaves a new river of debris, mostly bits of ice and rock no bigger than a sand grain but a few the size of a pea or marble.
Over time, these cosmic streams spread out, so predicting exactly what will happen is difficult.
"We can predict when Earth will cross a debris stream with pretty good accuracy," Cooke said. "The intensity of the display is less certain, though, because we don't know how much debris is in each stream."
When Earth plows into the debris, the bits hit the atmosphere and vaporize, creating sometimes dramatic streaks of light and the occasional fireball with a smoky-looking trail that can remain visible for several minutes.
The Leonid stream is moving in the opposite direction of Earth, producing impact speeds of 160,000 mph (72 kilometers per second) – higher than many other meteors.
"Such speeds tend to produce meteors with hues of white, blue, aquamarine and even green," says Joe Rao, SPACE.com's skywatching columnist.
How to watch
The best viewing will be in rural areas. Get out of town if you can. If you have local lights, scout a location in advance where the lights are blocked by a building, tree or hill.
Dress warmly, and take a blanket or lounge chair so you can lie back and scan as much of the sky as possible. "At this time of year, meteor watching can be a long, cold business," Rao reminds people.
Leonids can appear anywhere, but if you trace them back, they all point to a hub, or radiant, in the constellation Leo – hence the name.
Give your eyes 15 minutes to adjust to the darkness. Then give the show at least a half-hour. The hourly rates stated above typically come in bursts, with lulls that may test your patience. No special equipment is needed. Telescopes and binoculars are of no use because meteors move too quickly.
When to watch
Earth will pass through one of the denser debris streams at around 4 a.m. EST (1 a.m. PST) Tuesday. If you have only an hour or less to watch, center it around this time. Leo will be high in the sky for East Coast skywatchers, putting more meteors into view. In the West, Leo will be low in the eastern sky at this time, so fewer shooting stars will be above the horizon, and therefore Western skywatchers should also try to stick it out until daybreak.
Across Europe, the best bet is to watch anytime between 1 a.m. and daybreak local time.
The planet will pass through an even denser stream later, just before dawn Wednesday in Indonesia and China, but that show won't be visible from North America because it will be daytime here.
One truth about the Leonids: They always produce, and they sometimes produce spectacular, unforgettable fireballs.

cakap.. buat baik berpada-pada. . jgn buat baik tak kira tempat.. nanti
susah kat sendiri.. so aku just nak mintak tolong kat korang sume..

Mimpi-mimpi nabi

Daripada Abdul Rahman Bin Samurah ra berkata,
Nabi  Muhammad saw bersabda:
"Sesungguhnya aku telah mengalami mimpi-mimpi yang  menakjubkan pada malam aku sebelum di Israqkan.... ...."

1. Aku telah  melihat seorang dari umatku telah di datang oleh malaikatul maut dengan  keadaan yang amat mengerunkan untuk mengambil nyawanya, maka malaikat itu  terhalang perbuatannya itu disebabkan oleh KETAATAN DAN KEPATUHANNYA  KEPADA KEDUA IBUBAPANYA.


2. Aku melihat seorang dari umatku telah disediakan azab kubur yang amat menyeksakan, diselamatkan oleh  berkat WUDUKNYA YANG SEMPURNA.

3. Aku melihat seorang dari  umatku

4. Aku melihat bagaimana umatku
diseret dengan  rantai yang diperbuat daripada api neraka jahanam yang dimasukkan dari  mulut dan dikeluarkan rantai tersebut ke duburnya oleh malaikat  Ahzab,tetapi SOLATNYA YANG KHUSYUK DAN TIDAK MENUNJUK-NUNJUK  telah melepaskannya dari seksaan itu.

To those who are married, .. Not married .. and soon to be married- Interesting stories



MARRIAGE

When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I've got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes.

Suddenly I didn't know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly.

She didn't seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why?
I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man! That night, we didn't talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer; she had lost my heart to Dew. I didn't love her anymore. I just pitied her!

With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company.

She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.

The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I didn't have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew.

When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again.

In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn't want anything from me, but needed a month's notice before the divorce.
She requested that in that one month we both struggle to live as normal a life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a month's time and she didn't want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.

This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day.

She requested that everyday for the month's duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door ever morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.

I told Dew about my wife's divorce conditions.. . She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully.

My wife and I hadn't had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly; don't tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.

On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn't looked at this woman carefully for a long time.. I realized she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her.

On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me.

On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn't tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.

She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily.

Suddenly it hit me... she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head.

Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it's time to carry mum out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly; it was just like our wedding day.

But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I hadn't noticed that our life lacked intimacy.

I drove to office.... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind... I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce anymore.

She looked at me, astonished, and then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I won't divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn't value the details of our lives, not because we didn't love each other any more. Now I realize that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart.

Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.

At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I'll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.

That evening I arrived home, flowers in my hands, a smile on my face, I run up stairs, only to find my wife in the bed - dead.



The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank, blah..blah.. blah.These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse's friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy.. Do have a real happy marriage!

If you don't share this, nothing will happen to you.
If you do, you just might save a marriage

LIFE IS TO LOVE ……

Improving Your PageRank

Below are suggestions for publicizing your site — and improving its PageRank — based on our experience getting the word out about Google Guide.

Include useful high-quality information on your site.

Create content that users want and will share with others.

Submit your site to various web directories and reference sites.

A web directory “specializes in linking to other web sites and categorizing those links,” according to HighSearchRanking.com.
Post your site’s URL (web address) to popular web directories including Open Directory Project (ODP), Yahoo!, and LookSmart. Also post your URL to online reference, e.g., Wikipedia, industry-specific expert sites, blogs, etc.

Publicize your site to everyone with whom you communicate.

Add your site’s URL, e.g., www.googleguide.com, to every piece of communication you initiate. The TechSoup (The Technology Place for Nonprofits) article, Publicizing Your Web Site: Getting the message out there, recommends that “your Web address should be listed everywhere that your phone/fax number and mailing address,” e.g.,
  • Business cards
  • Letterhead
  • Newsletters
  • Brochures
  • Press Releases
  • Fax cover sheets
  • Email signatures

Write a newsletter and send it out.

Inform people what’s new or noteworthy on your site. The newsletter will remind people about your site and encourage them to visit to find interesting content.

Provide a Rich Site Summary (RSS).

RSS is also known as Really Simple Syndication. JISC describes RSS as “a lightweight XML format for distributing news headlines and other content on the Web.”
In addition to making it easy for other sites to distribute your headlines and content, your RSS feed will be indexed by popular Blog search engines, including Technorati, BlogSearch, and Ask.com Bloglines.

Ask other high-quality websites to link to your website.

Getting other “good” websites to link to yours usually helps your website’s PageRank and ranking on Google.
Note: If your site links to delisted websites, your website might also be removed from Google’s index.

Provide motivation for highly ranked websites to link to yours.

Getting highly ranked sites to link to yours will improve your ranking more than getting many poorly ranked sites to link to yours.
Note: If Google suspects that you’ve traded links with other sites for the sole purpose of improving your ranking, it might penalize or blacklist your site.

Check out a site before you link back.

When you receive a request for a link, check the site before you link back. Is it a site worthy of your link, i.e., vote of confidence? Would a link be of value to your page’s visitors?

Tell the press about your site.

Telling the press may not get your website publicity. After making Google Guide live, I emailed local, national, and international press and got a poor response to our publicity.
Next I emailed journalists who specialize in search engines, but again few wrote articles about Google Guide.
Then I emailed reviewers of books on using Google. A handful responded. Some wrote that Google Guide was for novices; others wrote that Google Guide was tailored for advanced users. Wanting to make Google Guide appeal to novices and experts alike, I indicated sections that would appeal to particular users, e.g.,
  • If you have little or no experience with Google, read on. Otherwise, skip to the next section, titled “Go to the First Result.”
  • We recommend that you skip ahead to Part II: Understanding Search Results unless you’re an experienced Google user or you want to know how to use Google’s advanced operators.
After several months of emailing potential users and posting to websites, libraries, schools, and users began linking to Google Guide.
I tried again to get national press coverage by contacting John Markoff from the New York Times. After a few attempts, I was quoted in an article about Search Engine Wars and afterwards Google Guide got over 50,000 unique visitors/day for the following week and traffic has been good ever since.
On the basis of a suggestion from Matt Vance, I created the Google Guide Cheat Sheet and announced it on Slashdot, which generated great publicity, along with a few flames; within 24 hours, the Cheat Sheet went from being ranked so poorly I couldn’t even find it to being ranked #2 (after Google’s cheat sheet).

Keep your website up.

If your website is not accessible for an extended period of time, Google may reduce the ranking of your site.

Give away content.

I publish Google Guide under a Creative Commons License to enable others to copy, distribute, and make derivative works, as long as they give Nancy Blachman credit and link to Google Guide.
If most of your site’s content is commercial — e.g., pages about your business — consider adding other pages with useful information for the public. For example, if you sell bicycles, include pages or a blog about bicycle paths, bicycle gear, or with tips on bicycling. Publicize these and encourage others to link to them.

Translate your website into foreign languages.

If you don’t know a foreign language, find others that do. Erik Hoy, a librarian, emailed me asking if he could use some material from Google Guide on Copenhagen Main Library’s website. I suggested that he translate the whole thing into Danish, which he did.
Recently Google Guide was translated into Hebrew.

Search Google for your website.

Instead of entering your URL into your browser, search Google for your site. Google is more apt to improve the ranking of a site that users seek and visit than one that gets no traffic from Google.
When I first made this site publicly available, Google Guide wasn’t in the first 100 sites on searches for [ Google guide ]. Thanks to the sites that linked to Google Guide and users who clicked on Google Guide in their search results, Google Guide is in the top ten results for many queries that relate to the content of the site. Being listed so highly on Google has improved the traffic flow to Google Guide.

Saya sokong pasukan Kelantan...THE RED WARRIOR'S


Buru impian


Mesti semat fokus


SAMBIL membimbit buku nota di tangan kirinya, jurulatih Kelantan, B Sathianathan kelihatan begitu serius dan mungkin beliau memikirkan apakah rancangan seterusnya apabila detik penentuan siapakah gerangan bakal membawa pulang Piala Malaysia, hanya berbaki beberapa jam lagi.

Raut wajah beliau jelas membayangkan sesuatu yang bakal dipertaruhkan pada aksi final malam ini selepas beliau diletakkan sebagai sandaran ribuan peminat Kelantan yang mahukan penantian selama 89 tahun berakhir dengan kejayaan di bawah kendaliannya.

Walaupun ramai meletakkan skuad kami sebagai pilihan, saya tidak melihat ia sebagai landasan kepada kemenangan nanti.

“Untuk perlawanan akhir, ia tidak kira pasukan mana, semuanya sama.

“Tapi, kalau ditanya bagaimana peluang Kelantan, saya hanya boleh jelaskan, tunggu keputusan malam esok (malam ini),” katanya.

Kesinambungan daripada itu membuatkan Sathianathan memberi jawapan lebih selamat sambil mengatakan: “Tiada sesiapa pun baik saya atau pemain beraksi tidak mahu menang.

“Semuanya membuat persiapan terbaik. Mereka menjalani latihan dengan begitu gigih dan tidak berbaloi apabila ada mengatakan, kami beraksi untuk tidak mahu menang,” katanya.

Andainya Sathianathan berjaya menjulang piala paling tua ini, namanya pasti diingati semua peminat Kelantan kerana beliau satu-satunya jurulatih pertama membawa pulang piala itu ke negeri Cik Siti Wan Kembang.

Bagaimanapun, kemenangan itu sedikit pun belum mampu melegakan dirinya kerana matlamat utama beliau ialah membantu skuad kebangsaan menang terutamanya Kejohanan Pesta Bola Merdeka.

“Kalau anda tanya saya, Piala Malaysia bukanlah tumpuan saya kerana Pestabola Merdeka lebih penting. Walaupun ada mengatakan kita menjemput pasukan ranking bawahan, saya tidak kisah kerana kejohanan ini lebih penting,” katanya.

Sejak mengambil alih tugas daripada Peter Butler beberapa hari menjelang saingan Piala Malaysia, nama Sathianathan tiba-tiba muncul di Kelantan selepas Persatuan Bola Sepak Kelantan (Kafa) melantik beliau mengisi kekosongan itu.

Dan bermula dari itulah, namanya yang kian tenggelam selepas ditamatkan kontrak oleh Persatuan Bola Sepak Malaysia (FAM) kerana popular dengan komen “Liga Malaysia bukan bola sepak” ketika skuad bimbingan dibelasah 5-0 oleh Emiriah Arab Bersatu pada saingan kelayakan Piala Asia 2011, Januari lalu.



>Tak kisah bukan pilihan



REPUTASI skuad pilihan digalas Kelantan pada final Piala Malaysia 2009, malam ini, menggembirakan jurulatih Negeri Sembilan, Wan Jamak Wan Hassan kerana memudahkan pemainnya beraksi cemerlang tanpa sebarang tekanan.

Situasi itu sememangnya dituntut Wan Jamak, yang menganggap ketenangan antara kunci utama untuk pemain mempamer persembahan terbaik sekali gus beraksi menggunakan taktikal pasukan.

“Saya percaya, pemain Negeri Sembilan tidak banyak tekanan dan ketika ini, mereka dilihat lebih tenang. Ia sesuatu yang menggembirakan pada tempoh genting ini kerana ia mampu mengelakkan pemain melakukan kesilapan.

“Dalam tempoh dua atau tiga hari ini, media massa sering memberi tumpuan terhadap Kelantan kerana mereka pasukan pilihan. Tapi, ia perkembangan terbaik kerana menjadikan kami ‘underdog’, sekali gus mengurangkan tekanan,” katanya.

Prestasi cemerlang Kelantan, finalis Piala FA, terutama bermula peringkat kalah mati Piala Malaysia selain sokongan luar biasa peminat The Red Warriors, menarik perhatian banyak pihak untuk meletakkan mereka sebagai pilihan.

Namun, rekod pertemuan memihak Negeri Sembilan, 3-1, dengan kekalahan tunggal itu hadir menerusi peraturan gol tempat lawan pada peringkat separuh akhir Piala FA.

Final di Stadium Nasional, Bukit Jalil, dijangka diganggu hujan dan bekas jurulatih kebangsaan itu berkata:

“Pemain perlu bijak menyesuaikan diri beraksi atas padang basah kerana kami sudah jalani persiapan hadapi kemungkinan itu.

“Hujan atau tidak, paling penting ialah pasukan mana beraksi paling baik akan memenangi final esok (hari ini),” katanya.

Mengenai kelebihan lawan, Wan Jamak menyifatkan sokongan padu peminat fanatik sejak awal musim memainkan peranan penting terhadap kejayaan skuad kendalian B Sathianathan itu.

“Kelantan bernasib baik kerana memiliki peminat setia yang sentiasa hadir ke stadium setiap kali mereka beraksi.

“Malah, Kelantan mempunyai beberapa pemain skil tinggi terutamanya jentera serangan.

“Kami perlu berhati-hati dengan ancaman itu,” katanya.

Macam-macam la dia ni kan...:- Terangsang bila pakai sarung

SOALAN

SAYA berusia 48 tahun dan mempunyai dua anak, masing-masing 12 dan 16 tahun. Masalah saya tidak diketahui isteri kecuali lapan rakan di tempat kerja dan kawasan perumahan yang sering bersama mengerjakan solat di masjid dan surau. 

ISMAIL
Pulau Pinang


JAWAPAN


ANDA dinasihatkan memberikan tumpuan apabila beribadat. Seboleh-bolehnya elakkan daripada memikirkan perkara bukan-bukan, yang boleh menimbulkan gangguan, lebih-lebih lagi rangsangan yang tidak sepatutnya berlaku.

Terangsang dengan kaum sejenis lebih-lebih lagi dilarang kerana ia satu dosa dan perasaan sedemikian perlu dijauhi. Ingatlah azab Allah kepada kaum Lut dan laknat Nabi kepada perbuatan songsang golongan peliwat.

Sabda baginda s.a.w mengulangi kata-katanya sebanyak tiga kali bahawa: "Allah melaknat orang yang melakukan perbuatan kaum Lut."

Justeru, perbanyakkanlah beristighfar dan berzikir mengingati Allah dalam setiap tingkah laku dan walau di mana anda berada. Mudah-mudahan anda dapat menjauhi daripada masalah itu, bersama hati yang tulus untuk beribadat kerana Allah.
