Malaysian Care!

Anand and I went outing last Saturday. It was my suggestion that we roam around Petaling Street and take some shots. We had our breakfast at a stall famous with porridge.. though, my stomach wasn't favoring porridge so I hitched my way towards a stall selling dried meat bun..yumyum( forged from baby Maverick)


The porridge was okay flushed down with the "liang cha" though Anand said that it was "self proclaiming" for being the Best porridge.

After our breakfast, I proposed to walking down an aisle concentrated with crowd. I have to admit that it was so weird..selling loads of old chunks, from shampoos to motorcycles, you name it. From my human instinct, I could say that they were all stolen goods!!Good Lord! It was an eyesore,to make it simple..

Moving down to Masjid Jamek, I sighted an old Indian beggar begging for money and sympathy( I bet). I thought it would be a great photo with the background of 3children having arms on each others shoulder which surely implies a message of "supportive". I felt intense uneasiness.. I told Anand to wait for me while I take a shot of him (from the back)--as below.



From my position of the shot, I reckon that there are more than thousands of people walk pass that spot in a day, but sadly, no one helped him..inc myself.

This, would surely imports and reflects how caring out society of 1Malaysia is! I felt slight shamefulness at this point but To speculate what others are thinking will drive us insane, each one of us is unique..we act as life thought us..

Currently Addicted to Plants vs Zombies


Anand and me are currently addicted to this Plants vs Zombie game..firstly introduced by my sis, Grace when I was back in Sabah last year. I am more into Zen Garden in which I have pots of plant and they will reward me with either silver coins, gold coins or diamonds...hehe..but Anand is more into survival and adventure parts..groups of zombie will come and attack your plants in order to "eat your brains" ...that's a nice game really...planning to get more of similar games..

Natural Fan-saster

I will be awarded with Noble Prize if I can stand another minute sitting in this room with a background music of creaking noise made by our ceiling fan. It's like literally living in a bird park!! I can't stand it any longer..!!

 Everyone, this is the culprit

Meteor rain ??

I read in today (12/8/10) Star newspaper that there is going to be meteor shower and shooting stars well after midnight?? If that is going to be true then I'm better off charging camera and keep my fingers crossed. Hopefully I will have the chance to enjoy it ( for the first time ), take loads of pictures and  share with you the first thing tomorrow morning!! And hey, photographing is one of my interests too...!

CHICHARITO!!

 
Chicharitho trying to tell that his eyes are green!!

Isn't he cute?? Yeah...he is Javier Hernandez nicknamed Chicharito (little pea) as his father, a former footballer was nicknamed Chicharo (pea) for his green eyes..
     He is currently playing Forward position for Manchester United FC and I first saw him played last Sunday in MU vs Chelsea Community Shield at Restaurant Nainas. I was literally forced by Anand to watch that 10pm match (but I busied myself playing Bejeweled game in his Nexus One while keeping an eye at the score line)
      I needn't to say much when supporters were hooraying for MU. After the match, Anand started to sing Chicharito's name in an indescribable tune which sounded almost like frying rice shockingly--chicha..chicha..CHICHARITO!!!
     But I personally feel that Javier Hernandez looks like Edward Furlong...one of the actor in American History X..take a look, I might be wrong..

Edward Furlong
Chicharito

Beer Can Chicken

I don't know, this seems hilarious to me..BEER CAN CHICKEN..haha..
Just read about it in today (10/08/10) The Star newspaper, perhaps the insert pictures caught my eyes and after went through the whole writing, I realised that it is nothing new but definitely fresh to me!

 Look at this, it's like a chicken sitting on grill waiting to be eaten..hahaha..
Here are some important notes on BCC I've jotted down which may be useful to you (if you wanna try this at home)....
It is not compulsorily to use BEER can (as it may be non-Halal to some of our friends), instead of that, we can opt to use any soda can.  
Though, the logic behind using a beer can is that beer helps steam the chicken without giving it any beer flavouring and ensures that it will not be overcooked or dry. Still, I'm pretty sure any soda can will do about the same.  
       It was stated that its BEST to grill the BCC over indirect heat (away from the heat source) for even results. By doing this, we can prevent burning or charring of the legs, which are closest to the heat source.
       Once the chicken is done, be very careful when removing it from the grill. (Wild guess--due to explosive or burning ability of alcohol??) The best way is to slide a spatula under the can and using a metal thong, hold the neck steadily before transferring to a plate. 
       May be I should try out this out...

Look at this, there are even grilling accessories to hold the beer cans!

Serial Killer Daniel Camargo Barbosa

 
 Cover of the book

In the Encyclopedia of Serial Killer by Brian Lane and Wilfred Gregg (1992), with a cup of hot Green Tea in my hand, I read about an interesting short story of Daniel Camargo Barbosa. It was really thrilling that I figure must be shared with you.


             Daniel Camargo Barbosa had been convicted in Colombia for brutally raped and murdered his 9 yr old victim. Though in 1986, he escaped from prison to Ecuador and commenced nationwide series of killing young children. When he was finally arrested, he admitted to a total of 71 murders!!
             51 young girls disappeared in just a period of 14 months! At 3 of the known murder scenes, a similar clue was found--a discarded sweet wrapping paper which was believed to be used to lure the children before raping and killing them.
             When Camargo was finally captured, he admitted the killings and led investigators to the bodies of 6 recent victims. He confirmed to the police that the children had been lured with sweets and ballpoint pens, and he gave a cynical and kinky explanation for choosing children that he wanted virgins "because they cried" this apparently gave him greater satisfaction!! What an animal!
             At his trial in September 1989, incredibly he was sentenced to only 16 years imprisonment---the maximum punishment under Ecuador's criminal code!
             Does it means I will still get a 16 years of imprisonment even though i killed 709 people, did 5 arson and say 65 kidnaps in Ecuador??Lets hope Antonio Valencia won't kill somebody.. wow..that's amazing and wicked!
             Thadah!! It was reported that he died in prison murdered by Luis Masache Narvaez, one of his victim's cousin..what goes around, comes around..
