Recent video about 2-years-old girl getting run over by 2 vans in China..
18 witnesses ignored the incident, eventually she was saved by a garbage collector.
WARNING: Don't view the video if you think you can't take it.

Story of the incident taken from liveleak.com: 
------------------------------------------------------
A two-year-old toddler was run over by two vans and mortally wounded,
after which 18 people passed her indifferently in south China's
Guangdong Province.

Thanks to the 19th passer-by, a woman
garbage collector who came to her aid about seven minutes after the
first hit, the girl didn't die immediately in last Thursday's incident.
But doctors said the girl died yesterday from severe brain injuries she
had suffered in the accident.

Police have detained both drivers.

After the surveillance video of the incident was put online yesterday, many
netizens condemned the 18 passers-by who could have helped the girl
avoid the second accident. The case was the latest to bring home the
question of whether people today are too cold-blooded to help, or
whether it's smart to stay away from an accident to avoid the chance of
being accused of responsibility by the victim.

The girl, identified by her parents as Yueyue, was knocked down by a van about
5:30pm last Thursday, when walking alone in a hardware wholesaling
market in the city of Foshan. The car driver stopped for a while after
the front wheel rolled over the girl. But he sped away soon and the rear
wheel crushed her again.

A witness walked around the girl lying
on the narrow street without stopping, the surveillance camera showed.
Then a biker and a pedestrian passed her but ignored the girl struggling
in a pool of blood.

A second van driver, who didn't see the
girl, crushed her again and fled the scene. After the second hit,
Yueyue became motionless.

Over the ensuing five minutes, 15 people passed her and each of them just took a look. None stopped to lend a hand.

Then finally, about seven minutes after the girl was hit by the first van,
the trash collector came to her aid. She rushed to help her sit up but
Yueyue was paralyzed. So the woman moved her from the middle of the
street to the side. She yelled for help and Yueyue's mother came and
held her daughter in her arms.

Yueyue was rushed to the
General Hospital of Guangzhou Military Command, where she remained in
the intensive care unit until she died yesterday afternoon.

"She couldn't breathe on her own," said Wen Qiang, deputy director of the ICU department.

The incident is the latest example of passers-by acting indifferently to
victims injured in crimes. In this case, some blamed the parents for
letting the girl walk on the street alone. More criticized the
phenomenon of people passing by without helping, caused at least in part
by previous extortion attempts from the injured and their families who
have sometimes tried to blame the person helping.

Hey... It's been a while since I last posted something, eh..?
In a blink of an eye, another year has gone by..
Since it's already a new year, I'm thinking of doing something different here. Probably, I can start sharing my knowledge thru this blog.
Enough of the bullshit! Let's get down to business.

Well..I'm not an IT expert or such, but I'd like to share my experience in case some of the readers don't know and want to learn more about computer stuffs.



So... how to make your computer run a little faster?
Some people have no clue and they simply format their computer when it becomes slow.
There are several ways to improve the speed, but the easiest one(for me) is to stop unwanted program.
Now... do you know how to open Windows Task Manager to stop the programs? Very simple! Hold "Ctrl" and "Shift" buttons, then press "Esc" key(while still holding the other 2 buttons). You will see a list of running programs, how much those programs use the memory and how much they utilize the CPU. Basically, the more they use the memory & CPU, the more they slow down your computer. So, try to kill whatever programs that are unused, but be a little careful because you don't want to stop some programs that are essential for the Windows to run properly. If you're unsure, don't stop the program; just stop those programs which you know. Actually, there is generally no harm to stop essential Windows program if you like to explore; if the Windows suddenly becomes a bit weird, you know you stop the wrong program, so next time you shouldn't stop that program.  :)
But, of course, you don't want to go to Task Manager and kill the programs every time you run Windows, do you? There is an easier way to stop those programs. Stop them before they are even started! Yes, don't load them during Windows startup. But, how?

Click on the Windows "Start" button and run this command called "msconfig".







You will see the system configuration, something like this:












Well, not exactly, because it would be on "General" tab when the command is executed. Try to click on "Services" tab, then you will see something like the above picture.
We're trying to de-activate some Services and Startup items which are considered useless. As you can see, I de-activated quite a number of programs & services that I consider not necessary to be loaded.

I'd recommend sorting it by the "Manufacturer" name since it's easier to determine which programs are useful/useless by this method. Just click on the "Manufacturer" to sort it ascending or descending.
Now, you can start choosing which programs you want to de-active so they are not loaded during Windows startup. After finished going through the "Services" tab, go thru the "Startup" tab and do the same thing.
As usual, if you're unsure, google is your best friend.
Don't de-activate those programs with "Microsoft Corporation" as the manufacturer, unless you know what you are doing.
Once you finish doing your stuffs, just click "OK", then restart the computer. You may receive a prompt during Windows startup after the restart, but don't worry, it's nothing..
Note:  you can still run the programs that you de-activated, just that they are not loaded during startup. Some programs may require the services to be loaded during startup, in that case you may want to enable those services by running msconfig again. By doing it, you can learn something and know how it works.

The above is how to make your computer startup faster.
If you still feel your computer is too slow, you may want to check for virus/adware/spyware/malware.
Try to get antivirus program and run a scan on your computer. If antivirus doesn't find anything harmful in your computer, it doesn't mean your computer is safe. It might still be full of adware.
If you receive an advertisement popup out of nothing especially when browsing, there may be adware inside your computer and those spyware/adware can slow down your computer as well.
I recommend you to guard your computer using a free program like Ad-aware(by Lavasoft). It can be used to scan & remove adware/spyware/malware, and it can also provide protection while you're browsing internet.

It would be good to delete unnecessary files from your harddisk as well, just to make sure the system has enough space to save restore points and utilize the free space as virtual memory. It's also recommended to "defrag" your harddisk once in a while. By defragmenting your harddisk, it will reorganize the files in such a way so the system/program can run faster. You can run "Disk Defragmenter" from Start button->all programs->accessories->system tools->Disk Defragmenter.

Try to uninstall programs that you don't need so it frees up some space and put less load to the system.
Actually registry cleaner program may help to speed up as well. But, if you're not familiar with registry, you better don't play with it.

After all the above, if you still feel your computer is too slow, maybe it's about time to upgrade your computer.   =D
