Beware Microsoft Indian call scams viruses or errors.
First off, please don't rub it in, but yes, I got scammed by these folks. Yes, I was stupid and admit it.
First off, I should had really consulted God on this matter, and I didn't and I have no one else to blame but me. But I am glad he helped me rectify the situation even if I lost quite a bit of money. The point of this post is to show and warn you to not do the same thing and to help save your hard earned money.
Priority: Once you hear these people with thick Indian accents calling you from Microsoft talking either about Viruses or errors ( this is what I got.) Hang up quick! Microsoft, through my experience never calls, and after this incident never will. These people are fakes.
If you were duped, be-careful here. Let's say you already paid the money which is where I am getting at, then you just lucked out on the money. But you can still save your computer. These people will have access to your comp because you gave it to them. You can see them doing stuff on your comp via remote pc. Before I get to the bad stuff, these folks are professionals! Sadly, they used their intelligence to do evil! Yes, I do forgive these folks and pray they find the lord some day. But I will never give them my business ever again nor will I trust any phone scheme ever again. Once again, how can I be so stupid! Anyways, they will give your confirmation codes through your email and stuff and it looks all legit. They will give you a website which you should look carefully, because it may not really have anything to do with what they are offering. They will use western names like Victor, Mark, and common names.... doesn't sound much Indian doesn't it?
I told them I had to go out for a moment. I come back hours later, and they barely did anything. I realized something was wrong. When they came back on, they were doing simple stuff that a blind lady can do. I did a research with my IPAD and put two and two together, and realized, this is a SCAM!
Yes, the monetary damage was done, but thank the Lord he still saved me in time to prevent my comp from losing info because I heard that the people who got scammed all the way lost their info, and these mis-guided souls would put viruses on there comps. Some got really nasty malware from what I heard and some couldn't even get past the login screen. I noticed that the guy who was controlling my comp was deleting my anti-virus software. I realized he was setting up the big finale!!! I quickly pulled the plug on my comp.
He was still trying to gain access to my comp after it rebooted. Though I learned the hard way, I said NO! My info is still intact and I changed my password just in case. Not only that, if you paid by card...CANCEL IT IMMEDIATELY! You see, I think the Lord wanted me to learn about this, because my faith has been dwindling (my fault) but now I see a real reason to need him more than ever. Guess what? If they were really caring, they would had called and said "why you unplug?" Not one call.......FAKE! Another way I knew the Lord protected me after my fall was that the guy could not finish his scanning on my computer for hours, when he talked to me he keeps saying he was dis-connected time after time. So thank the Lord he protected me from having my computer wiped out.
I knew something was wrong because I went out for "those" hours and I couldn't let go of the situation that I just gave a large sum of money away. I felt the lord was trying to teach me a lesson and that lesson was to trust in him and learn how to say NO to un-righteousness! You can't always say yes to everything.
I was foolish and careless and the damage had been done. I know many of you folks will not fall for it. Those who already paid.. you can still save your computer if you realize it though you can't get your money back because it was your negligence as it was mine.
Sure.... these people are laughing at me cuz they got my money. But if they die in their sins, can you take the money with you? If you are one of those that are cheating people and reading this, tell me:
"For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?" (Matt 16:26)
Yes, i am disappointed in myself as well as those who do this. But know this, I do forgive you folks but my God will have vengeance upon you if you do not repent. You have been warned!
Its a hard lesson learned. I learned it very well. Through my faith in the lord, I know I will earn my money back. However, try and not lose your soul. Peace brothers and sisters.
*up date 5/21/14* I just did a research online and many people got scammed by this evil scheme. There was s story with one guy who isn't trusting of phone soliciting, but even he fell for it. Thank God he was able to get back most of his money. Another lesson here is that keep God's armor on, and don't let your guard down for one sec.
Another thing is that I do not condone any of this. I am actually hoping they call me again some day so i can preach to them the Gospel. From that point on, they can continue to sin or drop their evil acts and turn themselves in. Either way, Justice will be served. If it comes from the Lord, you better hope your life wasn't lost in the process and you will be jailed for your criminal activities.
*update 5/22/14* Thank the Lord, I don't think I lost anything at all when I checked my statement. I was able to close the account in time before they did any damage. Hallelujah! I heard a lady in the past gave her bank account, and in front of her computer screen she saw her bank account being wired to an unknown source. She quickly called her bank to close the transfer. She too was able to stop it. This morning they called my dad up and said they were computer maintenance. Geez, these guys/girls will just hurt people just to get money. I hope they call again so I can say a couple things to them. Laters.
*update 7/22/14* Well, these folks keep calling. They called me a few days prior to writing this message and I told them a lie (forgive me God) that I had no computer. They hung up. They called me today in a very low frequency (some what eerie voice). I just quickly hung up. I was very tired so didn't feel like talking to them. Yeah, I have yet to preach to them, but I doubt they will listen. I ain't preaching niceties, its going to be more like, you guys/gals need forgiveness and you need to turn a new leaf that type of thing. Some people just can't take no for an answer like my friend said.
*August 2014* These guys don't let up. From what I hear, as long as you pick up the phone and say hi, the word "live bait" comes to mind. Sadly, I don't have caller ID on my phone so I can't pull the whole "If I don't recognize the number, then I'm not picking it up." One of the scammers called and I finally told them to seek God, and I was aware of their plans and what they were doing and then I hung up. The same people called me up few days later and I just hung them up because I was busy. The funny thing is that the latter said his name was Daniel Bryan who is a current WWE superstar.
*Sept 2014* I guess I should do this monthly. They are attempting to be more aggressive now. They call you up and then automatically say "You have a computer, right?" And then I just say: "Sorry dude, I'm not interested." *Click* *Sept 23, 2014* So They call my dad up. I tell them he's not home so "Sam" tries to sell his pitch to me. I abruptly interrupt him and say, I'll let my dad now, bye. *Click*

Modern eats: Gomatei Ala Moana
Whenever in doubt, or if you need a place to devour a tasty ramen meal, then go to Gomatei. There are two locations for you to choose from: Ala Moana or Ward warehouse; the latter being the original station of business. Without further delay, lets get started.
 |
| Chicken Tan Tan Ramen |
So I decided to pick up the Chicken Tantan ( pic above). The texture of the broth is very easy to the eyes and is very creamy and tasty. It also have a little spice to it as well. I didn't find the broth salty, but just right. The sliced chicken mixed with the broth is very appealing and delicious. The yellow noodles is fairly thick and tasty and goes just fine with the broth. The wakame is an welcome addition to the soupy dish. This bowl of goodies is roughly $10.
 |
| Chicken Teriyaki |
The Chicken Teriyaki is $7 and is an appetizer to the Ramen haven. The chicken goes good with the sweet sauce, but is fairly bland without it. Though it looks good and tatse good, you can find better deals for $7. Nowadays, appetizers are really money makers. It gets you started but leaves you very empty. I only tried this because my brother really wanted to try it. I wouldn't recommend this due to is steep price range.
 |
| Chicken Kaarage |
Last but not least, one of Gomatei's famous appetizers: Chicken Karaage. The Karaage comes sometimes in 5 big pieces or 6 mini ones like the one you see here. The Karaage is a must have if you are sick and tired of the ramen and gyoza combination. The Karaage sauce goes really well with the chicken giving it a mix of sweet and sour type of taste. The chicken comes hot usually and is very crispy. The only drawback is that the price is about the same as the teriyaki chicken ranging from $7 and above. The price used to be $5 back a couple years, but inflation has hit everything these days. Still, this side dish is worth checking out if you got another $7 to spend.
+ Lots of ramen selections. Got curry and rice dishes for the non-ramen lovers. They even have loco moco! + Nice side dishes.
+ Friendly staff. Always proficient with the water refill
+ Nice layout.
+ Ala Moana has lots of seats ( lots of tabletops/bar for those who don't care about a party table).
+ Convenient location
+ free mall parking (both Ward and Ala Moana)
-A little pricey.
-Ward is only 1/3 the size of Ala Moana so it has a much smaller space.
-Most appetizers are not worth the price
-Can get really busy in both places so the wait can be fairly long.

Modern Eats: Keeaumoku Seafood.
Decided to pick this up since I seen a couple people eat here. I'm not a big fan of fish though for an odd reason i really like Maguro. To get my money's worth, I had to try the Sashimi Salad. I ended up taking out my order because there is no room to dine in. This place is literally a grab and go place. The place is a little old looking but still presentable. You could see lots of fresh Ahi and Poke through the display case and the workers there are very friendly.
Now for the the salad, lots of Maguro! Yummy! Didn't care much for the orange looking meat. Not sure what it is called-though I heard it is called Sake. Correct me if I am wrong. And of course, it came with romaine lettuce and diced cabbage. Result: For $14, you can't go wrong. I tend to eat my raw fish plain with no wasabi or shoryu. Because I am not much of a fish fan, I don't know if this is over-priced or not, but $14 I feel is worth it for seafood. The taste is good as far as I am concerned so no qualms here. Enjoy folks.
+Lots of poke selection
+Reasonably priced
+Friendly staff
+Big portions (the pic don't lie)
-Very limited parking
-no dine in space
-Purists may find it a turn-off with no condiments such as wasabi given.
Keeaumoku Seafood can be found at:
1223 Keeaumoku St Honolulu, HI 96814
Modern Eats: Little Village Noodle House (Honolulu, Hi) August 4, 2013
I had lunch with an old classmate on one Sunday morning/Noon. We settled for Little Village Noodle House located in Chinatown/Fort street Mall area. It's been a few years since I've eaten in this place and I don't remember my experience much back then.
Little Village offers almost the same types of selections you'll find in most Chinese cuisines. My selection was simple as I ended up ordering the Minute Chicken Noodles plus a Cold Milk tea.
So first the main dish (above pic), the chicken, chow mein and choy sum looks good, no doubt about it. The main problem is the sauce. It got saltier as I ate on. I'm not sure what type of sauce they use, but according to some reviewers online, it is shrimp based. The noodles were crispy and the chicken was tender. I was full halfway through and ended up packing it home and giving the rest to my sister. I think everything was cooked well but the dish would had been totally perfect had the sauce not gave me a 2nd opinion. The dish was priced around $7-8.
The milk tea (pictured here) was roughly $4. If you like your drinks sweet, then this is for you. Frankly, it was too sweet for me. Would be nice if they decided to add pearls (Boba) someday to this drink.
Conclusion: First off, I don't think everyone should decide to come here or not based on my opinion. I didn't exactly try out a whole lot of foods. I realize that this restaurant is more ideal for bigger parties. I could see people sharing fried rice, meat and assorted vegetable dishes. The ambiance was great and the service was awesome as well. The waitress smiled a lot and was very professional and courteous. I would probably give this place another shot, but maybe I will eat ala carte and hopefully get a better impression of this restaurant the next time around.
+ Good service and layout of the restaurant
+ Free parking for patrons (rare in Chinatown).
+ Lots of tables
- Can get packed especially during weekend nights or special events.
- aforementioned food and drink review can be a turn-off to some.
- moderate to high priced items
- This place is considered a "tourist trap."

Philly Cheese steak sandwich and fries from Dave and Busters!
It was a Saturday night and I didn't feel like sleeping. I went with an friend to grab a midnight snack and settled upon D&B's.
I was unsure what to order since I had been cooking and eating pasta for the entire week ( so no pasta). The waitress eventually made her way around and inquired about our order. I hastily ordered the Philly Cheese steak sandwich and fries combo. The wait for our food was roughly 10-15 minutes. But that was a wait well worth it. Maybe it's been a while since I had a cheese steak or I've been accustomed to eating Charley's steak subs that I thought this dish was only going to be mediocre at best.
Result: The steak sandwich was well done. The beef steak was very tender and the toppings of mushrooms, bellpeppers, onions, and cheese made the food overall delicious. Normally, D&B's is a good place to just hang out and chill, but the Cheese steak sandwich is a must have! If you come in not knowing what to order, you can't go wrong with the Philly Cheese steak sandwich. Plus, its about $11-13. It comes with fries, and awkwardly, the people there gave me sweet potato fries. I'm not a fan of those types of fries, but it was free since it was given to me by accident ( I actually thought it came with it), so I'm not going to complain much. When I was done eating, I wanted more. Never before did I feel like I wanted seconds on an D&B meal.
My only gripe, if anything, is the portion. It does look roughly small and this may not satisfy folks with big appetites or high metabolic rates. Still, can't go wrong with the price. Enjoy!

After Earth quick review
Before I give my quick two cents, I do notice all over the world wide web there is this hate for Will Smith due to nepotism. Will Smith seriously takes a back-seat in this film (also looking very bored) in favor of making his real-life flesh and blood, Jaden Smith, the protagonist.
Jaden's character gets the job done, but Jaden Smith, as an actor, pulls the same expressions as he did in Karate Kid (another film blasted for nepotism though Will Smith doesn't appear until the end credits). When Jaden is angry, he's like meh. When he is happy, he is like meh. When he is sad, he is like meh. You get the drill.
Overall, I thought the film wasn't as bad as most people or critics put it out to be. The special effects were nice and the film had a decent pacing to it, though nothing surprising really ever happens. Jaden's acting was bland I'll admit and his character wasn't that interesting, but he is the main focus and the audience just has to deal with it. M. Night Shyamalan directed this film, but it really feels like this was a Will Smith driven film. I personally don't have anything against Shyamalan, but I can't say I enjoy the work he's produced. The last two films I saw from Shyamalan was Lady in the Water and Airbender, and both films were really mediocre at best. After Earth is a decent effort, but nothing to really brag home about. I don't think you can really expect much either when this whole film was about survival. When the film ended, one member of the audience actually clapped. So I guess it was good for something.

What's with the Hawaiian miles toolbar now?
I guess after years of people "spamming" searches, Hawaiian airlines capped the miles limit to 33 miles per day. Yes, you didn't hear that wrong, after earning 33 miles through the Hawaiian miles search toolbar, the words "Maximum Rewards Earned" gets displayed preventing you from earning any more miles until 24 hrs from your last search.
I remember reading blogs about how people could get up 5,000 miles a month, but with this new ceiling fix, I highly doubt this level can ever be reached again. Still 231 miles a week isn't so bad, but just wished they did not implement this new feature. Sucks that I just started this program not too long ago.
For anyone interested, look for the toolbar download here:
http://emarket.hawaiianair.com/toolbar_download
I think the advertisement got it wrong, but letting you folks know that it takes 3 searches to equal one mile, so it took me 99 searches to make 33 miles. I wonder why its capped at that number, hope its not a freemason occult thing.
*update* August 3, 2013
So I've been using the milefinder thus far and earning some pretty cool bonus miles. So the miles cap at 1000 miles no matter what. So even if you have an extra day, like how some months have 31 days, you only can get the extra 10 miles and that's it. Worst case is that you can only acquire 33 miles a day no matter what happens. So let's say you didn't use the toolbar finder for 29 days, you figure you could earn the 900+ miles in the last day, right? Nope, you only get 33 a day so you would had lucked out.
Good luck in this new system. I'm heading to on a trip next week and I'm going to miss over a weeks worth of miles. That'll suck.

*update* August 3, 2013
So I've been using the milefinder thus far and earning some pretty cool bonus miles. So the miles cap at 1000 miles no matter what. So even if you have an extra day, like how some months have 31 days, you only can get the extra 10 miles and that's it. Worst case is that you can only acquire 33 miles a day no matter what happens. So let's say you didn't use the toolbar finder for 29 days, you figure you could earn the 900+ miles in the last day, right? Nope, you only get 33 a day so you would had lucked out.
Good luck in this new system. I'm heading to on a trip next week and I'm going to miss over a weeks worth of miles. That'll suck.

Site reborn!
Here's the link to my old site:
http://wiileecoolstuff.blogspot.com
I will now update my personal blogs through this page. I still believe in the all mighty and eternal creator, God and his son, Jesus Christ who died for our sins. And let's not forget the Holy ghost. In our lives we will hurt others and as well allow others to hurt us, but overall, I urge everyone to forgive and let go of all grudges. If you can't stand the person, then don't interact with him/her. Cut your losses. Even in the Christian life, things aren't always fair. If you trash talk behind the person's back, it does not make you a better person! Forgiveness does not mean excusing the person of his behavior, but you won't allow him/her to bring you down ever again. Always remember to be the better person. But I swear, please do not call forgiveness evil! If you can't forgive, it is your weakness and problem, don't give the name forgiveness a bad rep because you can't forgive. Remember its your problem and I urge you to accept our Lord Jesus Christ and allow him to show you the path of righteousness and forgiveness. Even forgiveness takes time, but please don't with hold it forever. Remember if you don't forgive, the lord will not forgive you!
