A day

2011-12-28T01:03:00.005+08:00

Like usual, I was overslept...

Omg it was 12 noon! I was supposed to be in the office by 9am (or worse to worst by 10am)
Pick up the phone and send a message to inform someone, Alfred? Hmm...yeah, I got headache, my eyes still swelling...blablablaaa...anything can we just leave to tomorrow?.... Then my phone rang~~was Alfred.....hh--ello....lower down my tone (pretending sick)....from the other side of phone...."nonono...the deadline is 1pm today! you have to do the final correction by now...or you better call Prof E right now...."

The next thing, I was driving....the time was 12.30pm....I don't have Prof E's no....and I don't want to call Alfred again and again.... Oh, god! please clear my way!!

Then the miracle happened... from my house to the office usually take half an hour to 45 minutes thoroughgoing congestion and 7 traffic lights....but....strange....it was smooth?! and none of the 7 lights was red?! It was so awesome! feel like I'm gonna hit a lottery!

Oh yeah, I reached at 12.45pm, quickly rushed to Prof E's room, knocked the door and he looked at me... I was thinking "sure die" this time....almost 4 hours late...but come to my big surprise, he said, "yeah, you can check your paper tomorrow online, should be published"...."no need correction?" then he look at me with wonder "everything is done, your boss has check through".......my head was dizzy and lag perhaps, "oh, really, but Alfred ask me to see you this morning for correction"......argghh... I realized my sentence was so stupid right at the second I said so....

Since I was already "here".... wait a minute, I saw nasi lemak outside the seminar hall...should be the food for the morning's meeting....so I took one plate with fried chicken, and also a cup of nescafe, still hot in thermos, yeah, nice free brunch... to my room, enjoying....

Talk to my peers....while enjoying the nasi lemak together....
Actually, I should have registered for a presentation session early in September but now almost come to the end of semester, **bing bing** I just realized about it....I do pissed and blamed on myself being so reluctant to have make sure I got the registration done....But then, as I learnt that my friend going to extend for the 7th semester, I felt myself wasn't too bad....hahaha...this poor fella has actually complete his research on his 4th semester....but all because of his first supervisor transferred to Indonesia... then the second to German... so now he is waiting reply all the way from German in order to proceed to submission and viva....

Met my boss, suddenly I felt "thank god" he is my supervisor...I am sure he would never leave me and go to German or Indonesia....as he is the head for this whole department....and at his age now....where else to go? hehehe....then I ask a stupid question again "boss, do you think I manage to finish up by this semester?" "if everything progressed good, why not?" then I said "but......................." he turned off his Mac book and looked at me...."but.........I forgotten to register for the PTS5111" ..................................."what? then why don't you register?" I secretly thought that he may use his special power to placed me into the presentation hall on coming January....then everything would be so easy....hehe....but the probability for him to do so might be less than 0.00001, or unless he is going to migrate to German or Indonesia?

5pm, back home.
Tomorrow got an official meeting with all my big boss and yet I am still writing this nonsense....
And one more thing was, I did smashed on Alfred's head.

Merry Christmas ~` hohoho '~

2011-12-25T18:50:00.001+08:00

Why Santa Claus always "hohoho"?
How about "hehehe" or "hahaha"? that would be weird...
One says because he is old and coughing hohoho...
Another says because he likes Holicks drink...(the advert was "hohoho")
Anyhow, Merry Christmas followed by hohoho is simply perfect.

I like this year's Christmas day! or should I say I like the whole December!
A lot of fun, a lot of events and a lot of birthday presents and Christmas gifts...hohoho ^o^

So, new phone, new external drive, new books, new shoes, new sofa....and also my lovely new watch!
Introducing my Suunto M5...

Yeah, now on I will exercise more together with M5 :P

For today, yeah, I am single :P
Happy 111111

Today, it reminds me of you...
And the table that I used to call it "desk"...lol

Time flies...it has been a year...
I look at the pictures we took...omg...was that me?? then I deleted a few of them... slowly one day I might have deleted them all...like you requested...

But I am always care, my dearest friend...thank you for the joy you brought and the memory you left...

No matter where you are...I wish you are doing fine and all is well with you...

Johnny English Reborn -- non-stop laughing

2011-09-28T23:18:00.000+08:00

Rowan Atkinson who might be more well known as Mr. Bean, is now a secret agent, Johnny English...

Johnny English, was a improbable secret agent who doesn't know fear or danger. Well, as the most unlikely intelligence officer in Her Majesty's Secret Service, Johnny English was assigned the mission to hunt down a group of international assassins "Vortex" before they eliminate the Chinese Prime.

In the years since MI7's top spy vanished off the grid, he has been honing his "unique skills" and seeking for inner peace in a remote region of China.

When his agency superiors learn of an attempt against the Chinese premier's life, they must hunt down the highly unorthodox agent. Johnny English is called back to service the country.

Although the story was an ordinary one...a comedian hero to stop a group of assassins before they eliminate a world leader and cause global chaos...but every single movement, face expression or even a word that came out from Rowan Atkinson could make you laugh to tears...

Purple Jade Pixiu

2011-08-30T16:35:00.000+08:00

Finally I found her... love at first sight...
The very rare purple and dark green jade in combination with pixiu motif... she was astonishing...and I know I got to take her with me...no matter what...

Purple jade stone has been cherished by many other cultures for its unique and interesting properties. In Feng Shui, purple jade is a precious gemstone believed to have mysterious healing and energizing powers. With its extravagance and auspicious nature, these purple jade stones were exclusively delegated to the lord and noble in ancient China. Whist, American Indians believed that purple jade has the healing power for kidney ailment. Basically, purple jade was said to foster creativity, promote practicality, increase body strength and encourage tolerance, wisdom and love.

The natural color jade stone must be translucent to the light and the material would look slightly fibrous within. Jade is harder than steel and should not scratch by steel blaze. There are two type of jade in the market namely jadeite and nephrite. Jadeite mainly from Burma was known to be hardest jade stone in world and tends to have brighter hues and a shinier polish than nephrite.

In fact, the experts graded the jade as A, B, C where basically the best A-jade is natural jade that has not been treated in any way; B is jade that has been bleached; and C-jade is color dyed, which commonly called fake jade. The value of jade was highly subjective and even expects could run into difficulties to identify the quality of jades by their physical appearance.

The natural purple color side of my lovely jade pixiu...

The deep green side..translucent to light.

It cost me 500USD to tackle her...^^

Do nuts to stay sane

2011-08-26T14:37:00.000+08:00

Thanks to a 18's girl who knock my head...
Realized my 18 was gone too far...people around were getting older and older...and where the passion gone?

Arts, freedom and affection were such a beautiful picture...we were once young and passionate...
Who has polluted that nice perfect picture? was that mature a contradiction to "nuts"?

Some people say, you gotta be who you suppose to be when the time come...
18 was a great time, but you're so not gonna miss 28, 38, 48,58... who knows they would not be fun?

Today, I feel insane.

Sharky Bids - Definitely Scam!

2011-08-25T23:19:00.001+08:00

If you think you may have a Nikon D7000 for just 8.42 bucks, then you are a dumb!
Well, I was that dumb dumb being cheated 300 bucks.
Don't ever think for 1 second thats such a good deal, auction or whatsoever...they were SCAMS!
You could never win any thing at the end, what you had pay was just for the "clicking"...then your money all gone!
Damn pissed on myself been so lazy to find out...blindly to believe what I wish to be true.
How naive I was... somebody please lock them up!!

Here a good review on how they cheat...I was too late to find out this...so don't be a fool hooked up like me.

Half past 2011

2011-08-08T02:48:00.000+08:00

Hair was long enough tighten up.
Secluded beach...I was not alone.
Reminiscence pieces by pieces.
Over and over again.

Would it different this time?

I assumed myself found but sometimes I lost again.

I am fine.. seems like the only answer to how are you...
I wish I'd have be more creative but I never been.
Just like I wish I'd have become stronger...

I am not a believer but somehow I rely pretty much on the given...
I thought my faith have been exhausted in love
but surprisingly, tears dropped from my drought eyes again.

Was it real?

Complicated and mixed feeling...
For the past I couldn't found.
For the present I fear to become past.

Just one thing my heart could tell,
I was happy for the tears out of sorrow.

Weirdo.
I kinda like it.

I'll move on

2011-06-21T14:27:00.000+08:00

This road that I'm taking twists and turns
My life my chance turning dreams into reality
Down this path faced with many things
Sometimes I feel like giving up and turn away

Can't seem to go on
And I've been thru' this before
Now where am I? Where do I stand?
A little lost here
But I'll remember
All those times you've bought me through
I'd be a fool to give up cos' the goal is near

I'll move on I'll go on
Lord I will take your hand
And you will guide me along
Survive thru' this storm
So I say come what may
I'll hold on to my hope
Yes I will walk down this road
And my passion drive will lead me on

Here I am Once again caught in the rain
Looking back I've come so far and I want to carry on

Take a step at a time it's alright
Even through this rain
I want to smile again

Don't hold back now
And I've been thru' this before
Now where am I? Where do I stand?
A little lost here
But I'll remember
All those times you've bought me thru'
I can feel the sun shining down on me

Here I am Here I am
Lord I will take your hand
And you will guide me along
Survive thru' this storm
So I say come what may
I'll hold on to my hope
Yes I will walk down this road
And my passion drive will lead me on

Relax and Smile

2011-06-09T16:40:00.000+08:00

Peace and harmony...
Water is so green...rocks are so huge...and we are just tiny creature in between...
Under the shade of grey sky...everyone put on their smile...
For this moment...forget all the to do lists and forget who you are...
Happiness is always upon our reach...

British Royal Wedding

Sometimes when we touch

2011-04-21T00:54:00.001+08:00

You ask me if I love you
And I choke on my reply
I'd rather hurt you honestly
Than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you
In what you say or do
I'm only just beginning
To see the real you

And sometimes when we touch
The honestys too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all its strategy
Leaves me battling with my pride
But through all the insecurity
Some tenderness survives
I'm just another writer
Still trapped within my truth
A hesitant prize fighter
Still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honestys too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I'd like to break you
And drive you to your knees
At times I'd like to break through
And hold you endlessly
At times I understand you
And I know how hard you try
I watched while love commands you
And I've watched love pass you by
At times I think were drifters
Still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister
But then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honestys too much
And I have to close my eyes and hide
I want to hold ya till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

Black Swan -- Natalie Portman

2011-03-16T18:29:00.001+08:00

Watched two totally different movie by Natalie Portman -- "Black Swan" and "No String Attached"
One was comedy while another was psycho...I was totally impressed by the actress Natalie, indeed, she was the winner of Best Actress in Academy Awards 2011..

The story of Black Swan is basically showing how a ballet dancer Nina (Portman) wins the lead in "Swan Lake" and compete for the role of the delicate White Swan - Princess Odette...however, struggling to survive in the industry, the boss has to come out with more creative presentation as well as pushing the dancer to the outrageous... Nina slowly loses her mind as she becomes more and more like Odile, the Black Swan... her illusion, the "black swan" gave her the courage and strength that she had never had but also took away her soul...

The story ends with beautiful splash of blood on the stage...

Bravo!!

Everyone one of us has this "black swan" within...just that we still know how to play safe...
Inner of me love "Black Swan" but outer prefer "No Strings Attached"...lol...

Are roses and diamond a must on Valentine's day?

Roses wither and fall... diamond could be misplaced...beautiful eyes would be wrinkled one day...

Travel out of reality -- Gulliver's

2011-01-22T16:34:00.001+08:00

Fantasy and imagination are always the best entertainment...

Gulliver's Travels was one of my favorite bed time story...which always give me a sweet dream voyages to Liliput...a tiny man kingdom...

However, Gulliver's Travels 2010 has slightly different story plot where I found it more exciting as its more closely narrating dreams of most people now a day... especially the villa house! haha...

Gulliver Lemuel (starring by Jack Black) is presented as a depressed and not satisfying person in his mail room job as well as in his life...he decides to talk to journalist Darcy Silverman (Amanda Peet) who admired by him for so long... End up, Gulliver manage to convinces Darcy that he could write a report about his travels (by plagiarises from other publications on the Internet). Darcy is impressed by his writing and presents Gulliver a task – to travel to the Bermuda Triangle and write an article about the legend of ships mysteriously disappearing in the area...

Adventure of Gulliver begins as he rent a boat to the triangle, caught in a freak storm, and washed up unconscious on the shore of Liliput...

Gulliver is captured and imprisoned because of his huge size...but later he become hero of the tiny population (save the princess from kidnapped, save the king out of fire and protect the kingdom from their enemy Blefuscu)...he claimed himself as president the awesome... the best part is Gulliver enjoy very much respect, power and luxury that he never had in his real life...anyhow, the story goes on with Gulliver's lies revealed and he has to overcome the hardship with who he really is...then of cause the story ended happily...

Jack Black is a definite comedian and I can see everyone carried hope and smile home after the show...lol...including me...

Besides, you need concealable camera and spend 25 energy to perform the job. To obtain concealable camera, you need to "Rod an Electronic Store" under "Enforcer" tier and spend 21 energy.

Nicolas Cage -- Season of the Witch

2011-01-10T17:35:00.003+08:00

The very first movie I watched in the new year of 2011, Season of the Witch, simply because of Nicolas Cage, one of my favorite actor. However, after the show, I wonder, "what's the name of the show again?"...."season of the bitch?"...my friend said so...or mishearing?

I was confused.
As a horror movie, it was not that scary...indeed a bit childish...but to say as an action movie, the actions were lousy...at the beginning, it was alright, the girl was said as witch, yes, Season of the Witch, of cause should be all about witch...but turned up it was demon?? there was none of "witch" business, just a young pretty girl possessed by demon...I think most audiences like myself were expecting some black magic and spell...let it be a black kitty or a broken broom??

Furthermore, this demon was kind of stupid, he wanted to destroy the Key of Solomon (a book) but he don't know the way to the monastery where the book was kept (but he can kill all the monks there before his arrival)...so he hide in the body of the pretty gal, Anna (so-called witch), and let the knights and priest to escort him (or her)...lastly demon shown up himself and fight...but he looked rather weak...skinny and small size...definitely he was defeated...old knights and priest all died, only survival -- the young man and women, Kay and Anna...imagine they live happily ever after...
End the story.

Its all about Nicolas Cage...just like the poster shown...

Chinese Astrology for 2011

2010-12-21T22:26:00.001+08:00

Rat
(1924, 1936, 1948, 1960, 1972, 1984, 1996, 2008)
This is a good year for the Rat-born. Many of you will enjoy better success luck if you develop patience and be careful not to pick a fight unnecessarily. Try to practice tolerance and do not blow things out of proportion. Your anger will only cause you to miss out on opportunities and hamper good things to come to you. It is when these obstacles are cleared that a Rat person can enjoy good fortune luck and some serious prosperity luck in 2011. Those in managerial and patriarchal/matriarchal positions will enjoy good luck and big success thanks to the General Star and two Big Auspicious Big stars brought by the 24 mountains constellation. Remember to keep the quarrelsome energy in control. Watch out for slander, gossip and office politics and do not let trivial things to develop into big problems. Although the Rat will become successful during this year, you should be very careful to not push your boundaries; many people may see you as becoming ego-centric, arrogant and loud-mouthed.

Ox
(1925, 1937, 1949, 1961, 1973, 1985, 1997, 2009)
The Ox born person will enjoy a surge of good fortune in the year of the Rabbit 2011 because the star of Golden deity is in your direction and you’re also flanked by two Big Auspicious stars brought by the 24 Mountain constellations.

You’re in your element this year and big successes are coming on their way into your life. However, you are slightly afflicted by the hostility star #3 which could attract court cases and litigations. Watch out for envious and jealous foes.

Mentor luck is good. Opportunities abound. The Tiger sign also benefits from the Big Auspicious star indicating at least one breakthrough will come to you this year. On the negative side, you are indirectly afflicted by the misfortune Five Yellow star. Aggravations and setbacks caused by this star will be more likely brought by a Rabbit person. It’s going to be an exciting year for you if you do not let the nearby Five Yellow spoil things for you and prevent you from reaping the full benefits of the lucky stars in your home direction.

Rabbit
(1927, 1939, 1951, 1963, 1975, 1987, 1999, 2011)
The Rabbit year 2011 is not a good year for those born in the Rabbit year. Its home direction East is hit by the malignant Five Yellow #5 star in full force. This cosmic affliction brings illness, misfortune, negative outcomes and hardships. Ensure that you do not cause too much noise in this sector – no renovation, banging, knocking or loud music. 2011 is also a particularly challenging year for the Rabbit because of the Three Killings aiming at you from the opposite – West. There is indication of loss of reputation, wealth and relationships. Stay upbeat and be more careful. Don’t be impatient and impulsive in chasing success and wealth as you are more likely to come out defeated than otherwise. Good news is that Tai Sui in on your side this year so you have some kind of a rescue net to fall back on but don’t push your luck too much.

Dragon
(1916, 1928, 1940, 1952, 1964, 1976, 1988, 2000)
The Dragon-born will have a better year than last year. As heaven luck from the star #6 is in your home direction, you will find your success luck improves and setbacks to be minor. In addition to this, you will be granted with assistance from those around you, allowing you to overcome any obstacles you face and allow for smooth sailing. You will experience unexpected victory and a series of small but meaningful victories provided the malicious five yellow in your chart is kept under control. It’s prudent to keep yourself protected from this star to ensure you make the most of your good fortune in 2011. Do not stress yourself too much this year with work. You should take good care of your health and well being. Do not be impatient by going after some big deal and eyeing only on the big prize. Think long term, stay grounded and steadily build your foundation and you are more assured of success. This is a year to build strong foundation for the future.

Snake
(1917, 1929, 1941, 1953, 1965, 1977, 1989, 2001)
It’s another great year for the Snake born in 2011. All indications of your cosmic forces and Feng Shui winds blowing your way are positive which means you will enjoy auspicious good fortune luck. Your luck is on a roll so strike while it’s hot because it’s not often you have so many lucky stars congregate in your chart like this year. You are certain to achieve in full measure on whatever you set your mind on doing. You’ll find yourself benefit from the Heaven #6 star as well as some very powerful 24 Mountain stars helping you. Success luck is excellent so do not waste the year. Opportunities can be seized easily. Aim high. Put your ideas and plans into action and watch it leapfrog, grow and expand! If you take care of your health and do not let the indirect illness energy affect you, you will enjoy superlative luck in 2011.

Horse
(1918, 1930, 1942, 1954, 1966, 1978, 1990, 2002)
In 2011 the year of the Rabbit, you are flanked by two Big Auspicious Stars from the 24 Mountain Constellations, indicating something great coming into your life. However, your main concern this year is your health as you are plagued by the Illness Flying Star #2. You are also hit by the Reducing Energy Star, therefore, you must drum up your enthusiasm inside you so that you can overcome any hindrances that obstruct your progress this year. If you are able to keep your energy level high and keep charging forward despite the setbacks, this year can be exceptional. Although you will find yourself excelling in areas of your life such as business, career and fortune finding, all of these benefits will come at the decline of your health – this is further worsened due to lower energy levels. During the year 2011, you must very cautious about your health and take care to maintain a safe lifestyle.

Sheep
(1919, 1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003)
People born in the year of Sheep will have a mix of good and bad in 2011. You will be blessed with the revitalization of romance and relationships luck – this is because the Star of Love and Romance will be in your area. However, this will cause some problems in your career or business, because you will be blinded, and will therefore be more susceptible to distractions. Domestic issues and family well-being will engage your attention quite seriously this year with love, romance, marriage and domestic matters taking precedence over work and business related issues. The Peach Blossom influence in your chart brings passion into your relationships. If you are single, you will find your romantic life active, sometimes even for the married. But for some, this star might manifest as infidelity and attract third party interference into the marriage. Apart from relationships, the Sheep will find success in academic pursuits, as their educational luck will be very high this year.

Monkey
(1920, 1932, 1944, 1956, 1968, 1980, 1992, 2004)
People born in the year of Monkey will have a better year compared to last year but nevertheless still challenging. Chances of achieving your goal improves. However, you may feel restless, distracted and convinced that you are not at your best at work. It’s better not to make any major changes this year. Instead, work at sustaining your own inner confidence. There’s an indication of some kind of loss this year – not from burglary, but loss that has to do with you taking things for granted e.g. friendship or support from an influential person. You may get sidelined from politicking so be more sensitive with the events happening around you. The Monkey-born is indirectly hit by the Three Killings which can bring some danger. Your credibility and reputation could be tarnished. Good news is that you will have the energy and strength to pull through the year. Trust your instincts and ask for help when needed. Visited by the Peach Blossom Star #4, your love luck is promising! A good year to get married. Those who are married will find new passion in their marriage. Those who are single could find an ideal suitor. Don’t let yourself succumb to temptation and bad influence outside of your marriage and your family life. Education luck is also good. Good year to take up courses to improve yourself.

Rooster
(1921, 1933, 1945, 1957, 1969, 1981, 1993, 2005)
The Rooster will face some big challenges in the year 2011. You have the most inauspicious forecast as the result of Natural Disaster Star sitting in your home direction and two Three Killings Stars flanking your location. Rooster-born is also confronting the Grand Duke Jupiter (Tai Sui) and this is considered a very nasty affliction. It’s not completely bad. Your inner chi strength is high so you will be able to ride out the turbulences of the year. The powerful star of 9 (future prosperity star) is in your chart as well so it’s a good year to be ambitious and set your sights on higher level positions. Plan well and strategize.

Dog
(1922, 1934, 1946, 1958, 1970, 1982, 1994, 2006)
Your cosmic winds bring excellent prospects and wealth luck as the prosperity star #8 flies into your location in 2011. You also have the Small Auspicious Star in your chart which indicates a Dog person will enjoy some good fortune and small successes, possibly contributed by a Boar person. However, the 24 Mountain Constellations do not entirely bode well with your zodiac sign with the Star of 3 Killings and Yearly Conflict sitting in your location and spoiling your luck. These stars bring envious people who might try to harm you and cause obstacles to your endeavors. With poor Inner Essence and Life Force, you are susceptible to bad intention of rivals and competitors. It’s advisable to slow down your work pace and simply go with the flow this year. 2011 is not a year to aggressively pursue big ambitions and dreams. It’s important to stay optimistic and control your temper. With that and coupled with the right feng shui products, this year will be liberally sprinkled with good news and exciting developments that bring a smile to your face.

Boar
(1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007)
The Boar-born enjoys the good fortune of prosperity-bringing #8 star in the Northwest sector in 2011. You’ll find plenty of opportunities to expand your assets and wealth this year. You also enjoy fabulous indications from the 24 Mountain Constellation stars namely the magnifying Yi Duo Star and both the Small and Big Auspicious Stars. The presence of these highly auspicious stars will help suppress weaker indications in your element forecast – which suggests that success luck is downgraded with obstructions to your projects or completion of deals, making this year not as good as last year. All in all, this year will be a cheerful one filled with good news and successes.

Best Moment

2010-11-10T22:19:00.002+08:00

Long long night sleeping with all the alphabets and numbers...trying the very best pushing everything into my head...
The purpose of life at this particular moment is just to get the exam passed!

And.. yes!

Long holidays following by and that's the best dessert after the bitter..

Grab a hot tea break.. hanging out.. talking crabs.. wonderful afternoon can be just that simple..

Pick up the other part on hold..switching.. switching.. buzz.. buzz..

New annotation of life.. feeding the effort producing success..while snatching some humanity..

My Will

2010-10-29T02:12:00.002+08:00

I wrote my first will.
I was crying while writing...as if I am going to die soon...

I made a basic arrangement for my monetary ownership and then the rest of pages were my expression to my beloved family and friends that I afraid would be too late to let them know...

Anyway, its yet not the time to reveal what I have written in my will, but the point is I am feeling reborn after hours of crying and writing...there are so many things I haven't complete...so much words I haven't tell...listed down my secret one by one... my trustee will be overwhelm to execute my will I guess...

A good emotional exercise... what a relief and peace now...

Frankenfood - genetically modified food

2010-10-06T21:51:00.001+08:00

Do biotechnology improve quality of living or the other way round instead?

First transgenic farm animal for human consumption is being considered to be approved by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in United States. AquAdvantage Salmon is genetically engineered for rapid growth with two stretches of foreign DNA, a growth hormone gene with an antifreeze protein promoter. These Frankensalmon hold a 20-fold growth advantage over non-genetically modified salmon.

Both Food and Drug Administration staff and the salmon's maker, Aqua Bounty Technologies Inc, have said the fast-growing fish appears to be the same as normal Atlantic salmon and poses little threat to the environment or diners. But some consumer advocates, environmentalists and others have protested the move. They say there is not enough data to show that eating the genetically modified salmon does not cause side effects such as allergic reactions or that accidental escape will not harm other fish.

The FDA has already allowed modified animals as pets or to help produce biologic medicines. Genetically engineered vegetables such as corn have been on the market for years.

Aqua Bounty Chief Executive Officer Ronald Stotish told the FDA's panel of outside experts that approval could help provide the "healthy kind of diet that Americans are used to" amid threats from overfishing and increased demand. Without it, "it's hard to imagine how we'll meet the protein needs of the developing population over the next 20 to 30 years."

Critics, including groups like Consumers Union, the Center for Food Safety and Food and Water Watch, say Aqua Bounty has not done sufficient studies to prove its fish is safe. They also criticize the FDA for allowing just 14 days for the public to review the data even though the company submitted its bid more than a decade ago.

Indeed, the FDA notes evidence of "increased frequency of skeletal malformations, and increased prevalence of jaw erosions and multisystemic, focal inflammation" in the tissues of AquAdvantage Salmon. However, the FDA dismisses these findings as "within the range observed in rapid growth phenotypes of non-genetically engineered Atlantic salmon." In other words, the abnormalities they found were no worse than those currently farmed salmon for accelerated growth through other means.

Up to 80 percent of factory-farmed salmon in Chile have suffered from “screamer disease,” in which severe facial disfigurements lock their jaws permanently agape. Whist, in Norway, “humpback” spinal compression deformities have been found in 70 percent of salmon operations. In fact, these abnormalities have been linked to the physiological stress of intensive production.

Ironically, Aqua Bounty argues that the list of health disorders their fish suffer from could be seen as an advantage in that "any escapees from containment would be less capable of surviving". These genetically modified fish grow at such a rate that the metabolic demands might help preclude their survival in nature, make them less likely to create ecological havoc should they escape into the wild.

Concern about transgenic farm animals doesn't end at the waters edge. The FDA's logic for evaluating biotechnology could mean approval for transgenic calves born so freakishly huge that they can only be extracted via Caesarian section. There are breeds of such genetically defective "double-muscled" cattle that have been created. Chickens have already been bred for such rapid muscling that billions suffer in chronic pain every year in the United States from skeletal disorders that impair their ability to even walk and so a transgenic avian cripple would fit right in using the FDA's rationale. Right now, hens lay so many eggs that they risk prolapse, laying their own uterus. Up to a quarter of dairy cows are clinically lame and turkeys are now so top-heavy that they are physically incapable of mating.

All of these abominations exist today are the products of conventional techniques of genetic manipulation.

We might not know that demand of protein source for the developing population over the next 20 to 30 years could be solved by Frankenfood, but definitely, the creation of transgenic farm animals is giving agribusiness an additional tool to stress animals to their biological limits at the expense of their health and welfare.

Ridiculously, FDA shall come out with the rationale that these Frankenanimals are just "an invention" of biotechnology, nothing more like manufacturing of machine or electronic gadgets. Would you fight for the welfare of your iPhone or Playstation?
