MOVIE MESTI TENGOK: The Last Stand (2013)

Well, I guess it is already 1st February 2013! Happy day people! A month passed by just like that and we getting older. But this should not stop us from getting a life full of joy and taqwa. Here's the deal, I just recently watched this movie - THE LAST STAND. The review of it is as below:

What if Arnold Schwarzenegger (Susah-nak-eja) who aged 66  years old (actual age) is a sheriff?

Holding a big heavy gun and fire bullets at people's head!

Oh no, this time a NAZI automatic machine. BIGGA gun!!

And drive Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 with top speed of ~290km/h

To chase and hit Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1 of top speed ~300km/h

Which driven by 40 years old stiletto macho Eduardo Noriega.

Which accompanied in that car by 26 years old smokin' HOT Genesis Rodriguez.

And finally as the title said "Arnold WON his punching-kicking-bleeding fighting with Eduardo".

As for me, my mind blast as I can't imagine how an old man who deserve to be call "atuk" driving a car so fast and bleeding all way but still fighting till his glory. In addition, the car Eduardo drove is no way any helicopter can catch him as the car is too fast!! Just for info, this movie is directed by a Korean producer, Kim Ji Woon. That's why a Korean Language poster like below exist. Go ASIA!!

"Anyohaseyo, saranghamnida" kata Arnold.

I think most of guys will like to watch this movie because of 3 reasons. 1 - It's all time superhero Arnold's movie. 2 - It's an action packed movie. 3 - Of course the CAR!! And not to forget, the movie also filled with most funniest thing you never imagine. Thus I suggest you go grab your ticket! 

 Enjoy the trailer - The Last Stand (2013)

TOP 6: Stealth (Halimunan) Fighter Jet

Stealth aircraft use stealth technology to avoid detection by features to interfere with radar, as well as to reduce visibility in the infrared, visual, audio, and radio frequency (RF) spectrum. Development of stealth technology likely began in Germany during World War II. This philosophy also takes into account the heat, sound, and other emissions of the aircraft as these can also be used to locate it. 6 List of Stealth Aircraft used between year of 1980s – current.

KASUT KERTAS: Bagaimana di proses?

Kertas dan Cara Penghasilannya.

Kita menggunakan kertas setiap hari hampir dimana jua kita berada. Tidak kita sama ada di restoran Mc Donalds, bungkusan burger tu, surat khabar yang kita baca, kertas yang digunakan untuk print, fotocopy kad pengenalan, menulis nota di kuliah malahan kasut yang kita pakai pun ada!

Cantikkan kasut kertas!

Terlalu banyak penggunaan kertas di zaman sekarang. Menurut sejarah yang memang famous dah, penemuan kertas bermula oleh kajian yang dijalankan oleh seorang rakyat Negara China bernama Cai Lun. Idea kertas terhasil apabila beliau mencari alternatif kepada penggunaan sutera (untuk menulis) pada zaman itu.

Kertas buatan Cai Lun

Jadi bagaimana kertas diproses? Hari-hari saya tengok stok kertas keluaran Indah Kiat (IK) kat bilik sembahyang office ni. Terfikir-fikir juga bagaimana kertas itu dibuat dan disini saya kongsikan kepada para pembaca:

Proses menghasilkan kertas

1)      Pokok yang ditebang akan dibuang bahagian luarnya (bark) dan di potong kecil-kecil ke dalam mesin memotong (chipping machine).

2)      Kepingan kayu dari pokok itu dimasak menggunakan air biasa dicampurkan bahan kimia yang lain untuk melembutkan struktur kayu.

3)      Kayu ini kemudia dikisar lagi dan ditambah lagi bahan lain sehinggalah menjadi pulpa atau cebisan kayu yang sangat halus dan lembut.

4)      Kemudia pulpa ini dibentukkan mengikut acuan masing-masing dan ditambah bahan kimia lagi untuk mendapatkan cirri-ciri tertentu yang diperlukan.

5)      Terhasilah kertas yang pelbagai bentuk dan warna!

Pemanasan Global dan Bencana Alam.

Awas! Anda rasa cuaca panas tak sekarang? Makin hari rasa macam makin panas bukan? Kalau dalam 15 tahun yang lepas tak ada pula rasa panas seperti hari ini (masih ingatkah anda?). Apakah penyebab kepada semua ini wehhh! Ehem. Ehem. Antaranya ialah disebabkan pembalakan yang berleluasa sama ada untuk tujuan pembinaan atau pemprosesan kertas.

Menurut kajian, dalam masa 40 tahun sahaja, penggunaan kertas telah meningkat kepada 400%!! Kalau ini berterusan, nanti habislah pokok dihutan ditebang. Bukan sahaja panas, malah kejadian lain seperti tanah runtuh dan banjir kilat pun boleh berlaku!

Kesiannya Penguin ni tak ada iceberg dah

Alternatif Penggunaan Kertas.

Jadi untuk elakkan musibah tak diingini ini melanda, penggunaan recycle paper atau kertas kitar semula sangatlah digalakkan. Ada juga penemuan baru iaitu biodegrable atau separa kertas separa plastic (synthetic paper). Dan macam-macam lagi lah yang anda sendiri boleh Google.

Pengajaran dan Kesimpulan.

Pandai-pandai lah guna kertas. Janganlah membazir. Kalau boleh gunalah kitar semula. Kalau nak lagi baik, pergi hantar sendiri kertas yang tak guna dah (surat khabar ke) kat kilang kertas. Semoga dunia di masa akan menjadi lebih baik untuk anak-anak kita dan generasi mendatang. InsyAllah.

P/s: Ada yang mendakwa penemuan kertas dimulakan oleh orang Islam di benua Arab dahulu sebelum Cai Lun menemuinya. Sejauh manakah kebenaran ini?

10 NEGARA: Paling Bahagia Di Dunia (Part 1)

Kebahagiaan, apakah pandangan anda? Umumnya kita melihatnya sebagai keupayaan memiliki rumah idaman, kereta, TV, pakaian berjenama dan masa yang riang bersama kawan-kawan dan keluarga. Selain itu kebahagian juga dientreptasi sebagai kemampuan untuk menyuarakan idea tanpa halangan, melakukan ritual agama masing-masing tanpa masalah dan berasa selamat dimana jua berada.

Walau apa pun sekali idea mengenai kebahagiaan, selalunya kebahagiaan berpaksikan kepada sihat tubuh badan, cukup bekalan makanan untuk diri sendiri dan keluarga, cukup duit untuk membuat apa yang dimahukan dan membeli apa sahaja yang diinginkan.

Untuk ini, 6 tahun yang lalu, penyelidik dari Legatum Institute of London telah melakukan kajian untuk menyenaraikan 10 negara paling bahagia pada akhir tahun 2012 seperti dibawah.
