Lynas. Goods or Bads?

As per title, what do you think of Lynas? Will they do more good or bad? Let's take a look.

What is Lynas?
Lets not lecture here, I'll make it short. Lynas is a company that digs for rare earth. Done.

What is Rare Earth?
The image below shows the rare earth on the Periodic Table

Where can these Rare Earth be found?
Rare earth is not something you can pick up on the floor and claim it as rare earth. These materials are mixed up together with other materials. In order to get these rare earth, big factory (Lynas) have to break up the mixed up materials to get the concentrated rare earth.

Why Rare Earth?
Rare earth gives out less green house gases. Therefore reducing global warming

-----------------------------------

I believe I have answered as short as possible what Lynas is trying to do here. They claim that this method can reduce global warming.

On their website, they stated on the homepage "Zero Harm and Sustainable Development" but when you click into that page, it shows "Our goal is Zero Harm"... Wait a minute, Our Goal? My goal is to get straight A's in SPM but I didn't... Goals can fail you too...

Malaysians claim Lynas is harmful to human being and especially to younger children is because of the radiation that are released by elements while digging for these rare earth. Moreover, Lynas factory in Kuantan is located approximately 2km away from residential area and my Kuantan friend told me that area is a popular tourist spot!

Currently, many Malaysians are going ballistic over this issue and have been hosting protest all over Malaysia concerning this. Below is the timetable which protest will take place tomorrow, 26th Feb 2012!

Will you go for this protest? Share your thoughts please!

Below and some of the videos and photos about Lynas:

The Wedding Diary - The Movie

Talking about a movie this time around! I've just finished this movie 1 hour ago and the moment this movie ended, I told myself I must tell the world about this film and all may watch it! And best of all, it is shot locally, Penang and Singapore! It was released on 9th February 2012 and directed by Adrian Teh. Cast consist of Aniu, Elanne Kwong, Kara Hui, Marcus Chin, Shaun Chen, Chris Tong. [Adrian Teh's Wedding Diary Interview].

The movie entitled "The Wedding Diary"

Here is the trailer:


Here is the Synopsis:
The Wedding Diary highlights disparities between the bride's and groom's families, from wealth levels to social differences between Singaporeans and Malaysians with its divergent Hokkien and Cantonese cultures. To please his future in-laws, the groom Daniel agrees to hold an extravagant dinner banquet in Singapore. On the wedding day, Daniel is dismayed the angpow money given by guests which he plans to use to foot the bill goes missing...


My view:
This movie has sort of relate to my life on how things are. Love, Family, Friends and own struggles. Men sometimes have their own dignity and ego to keep but sometimes we forget that if we let go a bit, our life would be an easier place to live. This movie has really got me thinking a lot about my life and this movie is seriously meaningful!


My rating:

4.5/5

Go watch this movie before it the cinema takes it off air! Don't miss this local film!

Drinking is fun but know the aftereffect!

Alcohol has been discovered long time ago. No one knows the exact date of when it has been discovered but everyone knows when you have too much of it, your system gets high!

Drinking Wine, Beer, Hard Liquor, Cocktails or Shots have been a common leisure for people ranging from Teenagers to Senior Citizen; but many don't know what is the long term effect or aftereffect of excessive intake of this liquid substance that makes you forget who you are for the night.

Let's cover the basic of alcohol shall we? Why do alcohol causes people to get tipsy and loose control? Alcohol does not need to be digested by the stomach but directly enter the bloodstream of the human body. That's why you get red. Alcohol travel very fast around your body and the first place it dwells is in the brain. This is why you get tipsy followed by losing control, blurred vision and uncontrollable words from your mouth. Full article: [Know Your Limits]

Different group of peoples breaks down the chemistry of alcohol at a different rate/time; gender, age, weight and even the type of drinks. Despite rate of the human body breaks down alcohol, the one common thing is the organs are working VERY hard to do so.

The 3 main organs that helps release the alcohol from your bloodstream are your Liver, Kidneys and Lungs. That's why when you blow into the breathalyzer, police can catch you drinking!

Well, the paragraph above is the main point I want to say. These 3 organ works very hard to help you discard the alcohol out from your body and ANYTHING in this entire world that works too hard will eventually break down and even spoil. Just put your PC on for 365 days and you will notice things will begin to break down; same as the body.

I urge you peoples, drinking once awhile is ok. Getting drunk and losing control once in a blue moon is ok but PLEASE DON'T DRINK EVERY DAY & NIGHT!

In 2006, 3.4 million or 14.9% Malaysians are diabetics. In year 2000, it has been estimated a stagering 171 million and its prediction of 2030 is 366 million. Being diabetic ain't fun. Trust me, I know. So please my fellow readers, control yourself; Drink under the limit and control. Don't make it a habit to drink. Be a social drinker or "once-in-a-blue-moon" drunker. When any one of your organ fails, you will regret your whole life just for not controlling yourself for that few nights of leisure.

The are the number of thing that can happen to you:

True love can never separate

I was just talking to a fellow blogger and a fellow friend of mine. We were talking about blogs and somehow the topic was pulled towards Love and Past. The common topic of nowadays youth adult (and even adults).

Well, while talking about this topics, a thought just popped into my mind about the shape of a love. I believe the shape of a love/heart is the most widely used shape along side Circle, Square and Triangle; The thought of this love shape just lighted up and the sentence "True love can never separate" came up.

As you notice the Love Shape above, I've label the two points 1 and 2. You will get what I am trying to express at the end of this post.

The both sides of the love shape are actually a mirror to each other. Beginning from point 1 towards point 2 is the common way to draw a Love Shape. Notice that point 1 has a big curve where as it goes slimmer and meets at point 2?

A relationship begins at point 1, close to each other. As you go on with the relationship, you feel that you are getting further away from each other; no more 24/7 texting, no sweet talks, no loves and kisses or whatever. Remember, no matter how far apart you both may go, even break up, a true love will bring you back to each other sooner or later like point 2 meeting at the end of the drawing.

Don't be overly sad when things don't work out. If your partner was meant to be with you, you both will meet back again, one day; just no one knows when. Keep your fate up high, go on enjoying life! Love will find its way back into your heart. No rush!

David Beckham Nude (Fake)

It has been hitting Facebook yesterday about David Beckham posing nude for AIDS Campaign as seen in the picture below:

(Censored for minors)

If you just search on Google.com for David Beckham Nude, you will find the result of this stupid scandal act.

This nude photos has only ONE source which is Omgblog.com. Omgblog.com is a well known website for making stupid hoax and news, the photo of David Beckham Nude is posted here (Warning, Link explicit; 18x)


I've found a source that backs me up. It speaks of this photo have been cleverly photoshopped as if it was the real thing. Source: [Who Ate All The Pie].

If you still don't believe me, explain to me why does Beckham chooses to show his "Private Part" to the world for an AIDS campaign? And Explain to me why the only source having this photo is Omgblog.com alone and not the news or fan site or the AIDS organization?

The recent KFC video

Seriously?! Whats up with the society? KFC is an international company and this is too much. No matter how wrong, HOW WRONG a customer is, the staff cannot lay a finger on the customer. NO MATTER WHAT.

As a matter fact, no one should lay a finger on anyone as fight is not a solution but its a problem.

The video that took a hit on Facebook two days ago has already hit the news:


The victim has just had a press conference, the video as below:


Just giving my thoughts here, Mr. Danny has all the right he has even if he scolded the staff with vulgar words because after all, it is just verbal argument and physical attack is too much. If the staff scolded him back or asked him to leave that's fine but not to beat him up.

I believe on EVERY voucher there is a term, "The management has the right to change or refuse refund" or however it goes; The management can just revoke the voucher from Mr. Danny and not refunding him if he caused chaos or unpleasing moments.

Who ever commented on the staff is babi, racist people and stuff; Let's just put that aside first, there's no need for any racism here. The issue is about the "customer" & "staff" not "Chinese" & "Malay".

What is your comment? Who do you think is right? Let's talk about it!
