PDRM Summons offer 50%

2010-12-02T09:47:00.000+08:00

I'm not sure whether this is good news or not, either. As some says yeah, they will get 50% discount for all their summons and quit excited about it, indeed for sure you do not want PDRM to blacklist your names.(i guess this wont happen for most of them)

But some people not that happy with this 'special' offer, and claim this is another way of current government to keep money flowing into their financial resources. It make sense, that gov always takes extra mile steps to overcome financial crisis. Hmm let wait and see what more will happen by 2011...

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows...Zzzzzz

2010-12-01T11:38:00.003+08:00

I can say this movie is not suitable for the person who really love lots of action thriller kind of stuff. The movie started with good story line casting how the ‘guardian’ moving Harry porter to a safer place to protect him from Lord Voldemort and Death eaters. Members of the Order of the Phoenix are ambushed by Death Eaters as they attempt to escort Harry from the Dursleys' to a safe house by broomstick using decoys.

And the story continues about how Harry overcomes this dangerous situation and finding a way to destroy the Horcruxes…the ending part was bit extreme. And overall I can say you cant expect much things in this Part 1…hopefully Part 2 will have more exciting scenes and stories…. WARNING do not watch this movie after work or if you’re tired, sleepy etc… ;-)

Ramayana retold by Westernised kid - for fun

2010-11-30T15:09:00.003+08:00

just to share some cool stuff that i received few weeks ago....read till end, im sure u will enjoy it..

A young second generation Indian in the US was asked by his mother to explain the significance of "Diwali" to his younger brother, this is how he went about it...

" So, like this dude had, like, a big cool kingdom and people liked him. But, like, his step-mom, or something, was kind of a bitch, and she forced her husband to, like, send this cool-dude, he was Ram, to some national forest or something... . Since he was going, for like, something like more than 10 years or so..... he decided to get his wife and his bro along.... you know...so that they could all chill out together.

But Dude,the forest was reeeeal scary shit... really man...they had monkeys and devils and shit like that. But this dude, Ram, kicked with darts and bows and arrows.... so it was fine.But then some bad gangsta boys, some jerk called Ravan, picks up his babe (Sita) and lures her away to his hood.. And boy, was our man, and also his bro, Laxman, pissed.

All the gods were with him... So anyways, you don't mess with gods.

So, Ram, and his bro get an army of monkeys.... Dude, don't ask me how they trained the damn monkeys... just go along with me, ok...So, Ram, Lax and their monkeys whip this gangsta's ass in his own hood.... Anyways, by this time, their time's up in the forest... and anyways... it gets kinda boring, you know.... no TV or malls or shit like that. So,they decided to hitch a ride back home... and when the people realize that our dude, his bro and the wife are back home... they thought, well, you know, at least they deserve something nice... and they didn't have any bars or clubs in those days... so they couldn't take them out for a drink, so they, like, decided to smoke and stuff ... and since they also had some lamps, they lit the lamps also...so it was pretty cooool... you know with all those fireworks...
And this is how it started."

The mother fainted.

Blogging for Money – Sources of Revenue

2010-11-30T14:17:00.002+08:00

Make Money Blogging

Before you even think about making money off of your blog, you should spend a few months concentrating on filling it with content and attracting readers. Many potential sources of revenue won’t even look at your blog unless it is 3 months old and active.

There are many ways to make money from your blog, but there is one very important fact to keep in mind – if you lie, you lose readers. In order to make money, you need readers. In order to have readers, you need to be considered a reliable source of information. Promoting a product might get you a decent pay check, but if your review recommends a bad product, you will miss out on potential profits in the long run. You also need to make sure that the products you are advertising are relevant to your readers, or your advertisements won’t be very useful.

Happy trying friends!!

Thaipusam and all about the celebration....

2009-02-10T22:52:00.000+08:00

Thaipusam is a Hindu festival celebrated mostly by the Tamil community on the full moon in the Tamil month of Thai (Jan/Feb). It is also referred to as Thaipooyam or Thaippooyam in the Malayalam language. Pusam refers to a star that is at its highest point during the festival. The festival commemorates both the birthday of Murugan (also Subramaniam), the youngest son of Shiva and Parvati, and the occasion when Parvati gave Murugan a vel (spear) so he could vanquish the evil demon Soorapadman.

There are two places in Malaysia, where this is celebrated. That's in Kuala Lumpur (Batu Caves) and on Penang. Every year in Kuala Lumpur, on Thaipusam, as many as 900,000 devotees and other visitors may throng the caves. As a form of penance or sacrifice, many of them carry kavadis (literally, "burden," such as a pitcher or jug). These are large, brightly decorated frameworks, usually combined with various metal hooks and skewers which are used to pierce the skin, cheeks and tongue. By doing this penance they expect some favours from their Gods. It is a common practice for devotees here to pierce themselves with numerous hooks and long skewers as well as to pull heavy chariots hooked to their backs even though nothing is mentioned about these forms of devotional expressions in the holy books.
The festival is held in the tenth month of the Hindu calendar (mostly the end of January). This 3-day festival will start off at the Sri Maha Mariamman temple in Kuala Lumpur's Chinatown district. From there, the devotees and the entire procession will make their way towards Batu Caves, which is like 13 kilometres towards the north of the city. At least about 50,000 Hindu devotees will be doing the procession.If a devotee wishes to carry a kavadi, that can be just a wooden arc decorated with flowers, peacock feathers and a picture of Murugan. Two pots filled with milk can be attached to both ends of the arch to be offered to Murugan. The kavadis is placed on the shoulders of the devotee. The kavadis represents a miniature shrine.Women carry a silver jug full of milk on their heads, some are pierced through their cheeks and tongues and others not. Some devotees will start fasting a month or two before Thaipusam. They will follow strictly a vegetarian diet and some even sleep on the hard floor for months preparing themselves for the day.
Chains are dropped from the central body of the kavadis and hooked onto the flesh of the bearer. The length of the spears had to be limited to a metre in consideration for other devotees. Others hook limes, oranges or coconuts onto their bodies. They are always accompanied by an entourage of relatives and friends to make them enthusiastic with dance parades, songs, musicians playing the drums and the flutes.As they arrive at the shrine at the Batu Caves, the Swami removes the hooks, spears etc. The vow is finally fulfilled. Now it's up to their Gods.
On Penang the procession starts on the evening before Thaipusam. They walk from the Chettiar Temple in Penang Street where the silver chariot leaves on a journey to the Nattukkottai Chettiar Temple at Waterfall Road
