Helen Thomas: "Zionists" Control Congress, White House, Hollywood…
by IPT News • Dec 3, 2010 at 5:39 pm
Veteran journalist Helen Thomas isn't content merely to stand by the comments she made earlier this year that led to ouster at Hearst Newspapers. Thomas resigned shortly after telling a rabbi in June that Jews should "get the hell out of Palestine" and "go home" to "Poland, Germany and America and America and everywhere else."
Thomas went further during remarks in Dearborn, Mich. on Thursday, in analyzing "the whole question of money in politics."
"Congress, the White House and Hollywood, Wall Street are owned by the Zionists. No question, in my opinion," she told 300 people gathered at a community center. "They put their money where their mouth is….We're being pushed into a wrong direction in every way."
"I can call a president of the United States anything in the book, but I can't touch Israel," Thomas said in an interview with the Detroit Free Press.
Arab-Americans and Islamists reacted in a variety of ways to Thomas' prior slurs. In October, the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) gave her its 2010 "Lifetime Achievement Award." CAIR spokesman Ibrahim Hooper asserted at the time that Thomas had apologized for the June comments urging Israeli Jews to "get the hell out." (Neither Hooper nor CAIR appear to have said anything about Thomas' comments in Dearborn.)
Last month, the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) gave Thomas a "courage in journalism" award.
At least one institution is backing away from Thomas after this latest rant. Wayne State University is dropping its Helen Thomas Spirit of Diversity Award. As a public university, Wayne State encourages free speech and open dialogue, and respects diverse viewpoints," a school statement said. "However, the university strongly condemns the anti-Semitic remarks made by Helen Thomas …"

Helen Thomas is right, who else has her courage?

Criticizing Israel is political suicide in Congress or the White House, does anyone dispute that? What further proof of undue lobbying influence do you need to have? It's not 'anti-Semitic' to condemn Zionism as pushing our foreign policy the wrong way in Israel's interests, not ours. Investigate, do research, see what you find. By the way, 'Semites' include Arabs but when they are criticized as being terrorists no-one accuses anyone of' 'anti-Semitism'.
I am sad for America that this one influence group has captured so much of our decision making and thinking. To even mention their name is political suicide and is considered by many to be religious bigotry.
Consider also this, Zionists encourage 'diversity' and open immigration in the United States but none in their own country, Israel. Helen Thomas was a martyr, kicked out and dishonored for simply speaking the truth that almost everyone knows but is afraid to directly state as she did for fear of losing their jobs. That's not the American way as I know it, is it?
It makes sense to me.

Notice how CAIR supports Helen Thomas' statement. Seeing as how CAIR fronts for the radical Islamic front, I would say that's at least remotely terror related.

How exactly is this even remotely terror related? Is every time someone says something Moronic and anti-semetic it going to end up on a terror blog?

Just finished the Table 2 video, and the way Chris did column highlighting seemed a bit complex. It might be becaus he wanted to show off the colgroup element, though.
But if you're just after column highlighting, quick and easy, you could do this:
Put that inside the hover function, and you should get the same effect, without need for colgroups or class names for each cell. (:

Pro ball seems always to just elude my soft, suburban hands. I have this dream, over and over, where the QB zips a pass high over the middle, and I am unable to go up for it. I look down, and I see two newspaper editors wrapping their arms around my legs, preventing me from reaching the ball. One looks like Naomi Watts, the other ....
Look, details aren't import. What's important is that something always seems to be holding us back from our dreams. Don't let it.
Paper Lion? Meet Paper Kiss.
So I follow this paper trail down to Santa Ana, where L.A.'s new Arena Football League team, the KISS, is holding open tryouts. This whole dream thing is a running theme, because everyone brings it up, even Coach Bob McMillen, the AFL's version of Mike Ditka.
"I played 13 years in Arena," McDitka barks in his welcoming remarks. "I got my start at an open tryout just like this."
It was his fifth tryout, in fact, and he went on to a hall of fame career in Arena, and is now coaching this expansion team for rock star owners Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, among others.
Their expansion team will carry 24 players during a frantic 18-game Arena season, a cross between traditional football and what happens when you drop live lobsters into a pot of scalding water.
McDitka pretty much has his roster assembled for the March 15 opener, but he's looking for a few more studs for camp. He might take five players from these 83 tryout participants, he might take none.
When he says none, he looks directly at me. I take that as a personal challenge.
I am following on the heels of George Plimpton, of course, the author of the sports classic "Paper Lion." Plimpton faced down Detroit defenders in training camp and lived to write about it.
And right now, you're saying to yourself, "How good can these other players be? You once scored five points against the Harlem Globetrotters. Show them the beast that you are."
Well, during our combine, one kid in my group, receiver Josh Sipho, runs the 40-yard dash in a beastly 4.37.
You could visit China in the time it took me to run 40 yards.
In the shuttle drill — measuring footwork and quickness — some players time in the 5-second range, very close to NFL standards. I finish in over 9 (making me the fastest columnist in camp).
What they can't measure in these drills is heart and courage. Frankly, I don't have much of that either.
In one drill, I knock loose several dormant alcohol molecules that latched to my frontal cortex over the holidays. Like a pair of Bufferin, they go directly to my ouch spots.
Worked so well, I'm currently developing a spray-on version of dormant alcohol molecules.
Yet, the other tryout participants are supportive, even as I push them to the upper reaches of human performance.
"Let's go, OG!" they yell during combine drills.

C-SPAN's Brian Lamb has asked Congress and the president to keep their word on transparency and let C-SPAN cover the "critical stage of reconciliation between the Chambers." The answer certainly will be "no." After all, there is not likely to be an actual conference committee, so cameras would have to follow Reid and Pelosi around as they buttonhole members and offer up more Cornhusker Kickbacks. And that wouldn't look too good.
Tom Bevan thinks Obama has a problem, given his own explicit promise to televise negotiations:
Today, when asked for the 3rd time whether President Obama believes that the "standard" he set during the campaign for transparency on health care negotiations is being met by the current process (which now appears to include bypassing the formal conference process), White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs gave a flaccid but telling response. "I do not believe the American people have lacked for information on what's in these bills – the political and policy arguments around different people's positions – I think that's been well documented," Gibbs said.
More and more of what comes out of the White House sounds like third-rate talking points. They seem to have grown accustomed to saying just any old thing and getting away with it. Now, they are being challenged. We'll see how they respond. That enemies list (e.g., Fox News, Gallup, Rasmussen, Chamber of Commerce) is getting pretty long. But who's going to believe that C-SPAN can be dismissed as a partisan attack machine? Maybe Obama should stick to a few of his promises — or at least concede that he just doesn't want to.

OOTD: Something different!
September 22, 2010
Denim shorts: Dorothy Perkins *** Floral print oversized top: Topshop *** White vest: Faith 21 *** Necklace: Forever 21 *** Bracelet: Primark *** Plimsolls: Topshop
The shorts had been sitting in my closet (with tags still on!) for quite a while so I figured I should at least give them a chance. I probably won't be wearing them or any kind of pants again any time soon! It felt incredibly awkward. The Topshop floral top was also an item that I purchased and never wore so I wanted to wear it at least once before winter kicks in.
Speaking of winter, I really need to do some A/W shopping! I have far too many pretty sun dresses and not enough wooly warm clothes! Irish winters in recent years haven't been too nice (incredibly cold and icy!) so I want to stock up on some knit tights too. Have you girls started shopping for winter clothes yet?
48 comments:
I love your top, it's really cute. I have wanted to try so hard to wear shorts, but I can't do it, but I will wear holes in my most comfy pair of jeans! I don't think this looks bad on you but comfort is key. Kudos to you for stepping out of your comfort zone!ReplyDelete
I am in the same boat as you. I must shop sometime soon! I'm transitioning as many summer pieces as I can until I get monies to shop for a/w!
This outfit is lovely! I can't bring myself to wear trousers either, I'm addicted to skirts and pretty dresses haha, I feel weird when I'm in jeans on an off-day! Knit tights are so snug, Primark have lots in at the moment :) xxReplyDelete
For some reason the top makes me think of hippies :)) Love it!ReplyDelete
I have a fear of shorts but my plan this winter is lots of knitted tights/shorts/boots combo so i need to get over it hahaReplyDelete
I love that top and I think I need to pop into primark and get me some bracelets, pretty! :D
i like the shorts.ReplyDelete
i've bought a couple of a/w things but by far not enough. when is it ever enough?
love FASHIONPROJECT. x
I can't bring myself to wear shorts because of my "thunder thighs"... Literally. I finally broke down and bought the first pair of shorts in over 5 years. They are a bit shorter than these in black. I wore them to Disney World because the humidity was RIDICULOUS! I must say that these Bermudas are a cute piece, as much as you abstain from shorts :)ReplyDelete
i like the outfit with the shorts! the top is really cute! and i like the shape of it too.ReplyDelete
I like how you look in trousers but yep, it's a bit weird cuz you always wear dresses&skirts! tomorrow i'm going shopping to buy some thing for a/w! :D xReplyDelete
you look wonderful in shorts..ReplyDelete
but i totally agree, i would rather be wearing dresses and skirts!! :)
I liked the outft on you!!!ReplyDelete
I have yet to start shopping for fal/wintr but I think jeggings/leggings will definately be in my wardrobe.
Have you tried any jeggings? I know forever 21 has few of them on their website. They fit like tights do (in my opinion) but look like jeans/trousers/pants. Maybe they could be an alternative for you if you ever wanted to change things up.
I love the oversized top! I'm jealous of your shorts, too - I searched all summer to find a perfect fit, to no avail!ReplyDelete
Sarah x
love the top! super pretty. I have trouble getting pants and shorts to fit me right too, Gap's widelegs trouser jeans are a godsend, they are seriously fantastic!ReplyDelete
I am madly in love with your bracelet!ReplyDelete
LOVE this outfit!!!ReplyDelete
ooooh i love how pink and feminine this is! you accessorized the shirt so perfectly!ReplyDelete
ps. i am a new blogger, and i would LOVE if you (or everyone) would follow me!! :)
I think your shorts look really cute.ReplyDelete
I know what you mean about the Irish A/W, I don't think it has stopped raining in the past two weeks :(
You look so adorable:-) I am totally a skirt girl, hands down!ReplyDelete
Im th opposite - always find it hard to find stuff that fits on the waist!ReplyDelete
I only have pretty dresses and skirts either! I solve this problem by wearing thick tight, boots and long socks :)
I have the same qualm about pants. They can be awkward. I love this outfit though. The top is really cute because I'm a sucker for floral prints.ReplyDelete
Nice outfit, I love the floral top...very girly and pretty! :)ReplyDelete
Check out my blog: Principessa Gabriella :)
love your top!ReplyDelete
i love the top, bracelet, and that lovely shade of pink as the backdrop! did you paint your wall that color?ReplyDelete
I have this EXACT problem with jeans... c:ReplyDelete
You look cute in shorts and I love the oversized top, so pretty!ReplyDelete
you look lovely : ) xReplyDelete
I agree, that top makes me think of Woodstock and hot summers, aaahh.ReplyDelete
I'm on a budget this a/w so I'll have to manage my summer and older outfits into something marvelous.

Cheap LCD tablets approaching reality
November 9, 2012 | 9:15 pm
It can be risky looking for a cheap tablet—as a woman found out when she paid $200 at a gas station for what she thought was an $830 iPad but turned out to be a rewrapped mirror. (Hint: if someone offers to sell you a 75%-off iPad at a gas station, there's probably something suspicious going on.) But not all cheap tablets are necessarily bogus. Today a coworker told me that she paid $70 each on eBay for two brand new 7" 4-gig capacitive-touchscreen Android 4.0 tablets called ZeePads and was very happy with them. Curious, I went looking...

Stats show Kawhi Leonard brings LeBron James-type offensive production to Spurs
Rookie known for his defensive prowess has produced the same amount of points per possession as Heat superstar
CORPUS CHRISTI - When the San Antonio Spurs acquired the draft rights to Kawhi Leonard last summer, they did so because of the potential he had as a defensive stopper. Leonard was a do-it-all wing defender for the San Diego State Aztecs, often guarding point guards and post players in the same game. At 6-foot-7, Leonard had the size to handle the more physical players in the nation and the length and quickness to bother guards like Kemba Walker, the undersized UConn star who went six picks before Leonard.
With a lack of plus defenders on the roster, Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich decided to make Leonard his most trusted perimeter defender right away. Since the season began Leonard has been asked to guard all-around players like LeBron James and Joe Johnson, cream of the crop scorers like Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony, offense initiators like Chris Paul and Deron Williams, off-screen savants like Kevin Martin and even good ole Dirk Nowitzki, who has had just about everyone in the world try to defend him at some point (Leonard held him to 0-for-5 shooting on five possessions).
This baptism by fire routine is understandable. With his physical skills alone Leonard figured to be a better defensive matchup on those players than anybody on the Spurs roster outside of Manu Ginobili, who was out for most of those games. However, Leonard's results have not matched his reputation to this point in his young NBA career. According to Syngery Sports Technology, Leonard has allowed .881 points per possession this season, which ranks him in the bottom 36 percent of the league (303rd overall).
Leonard's been so bad on defense this season that teams have actually picked on him by calling isolations for his man. In one-on-one situations Leonard has allowed 47 percent shooting and .932 points per possession, which ranks in the 18th percentile (higher is better). Leonard has also had trouble guarding the pick-and-roll, where he has allowed 49 percent shooting and .917 points per possession, ranking him in the 16th percentile. The only situation where Leonard has been good on D this season is when guarding post-ups, where he is excellent.
There will certainly be improvement for Leonard as a defender down the line but what I find interesting is that after being described as a stopper coming out of college, he's actually been far better as an offensive player for the Spurs. Leonard can still be a good defender - he has gambled for steals way too often this year, which is the source of his struggles - but he has blown his offensive expectations out of the water in the first few months of his pro career.
When you look at the Spurs' offense you see players with clearly defined roles. Tony Parker (rim attacker, distributor), Manu Ginobili (creator, shooter), Tim Duncan (post player, defensive focal point), DeJuan Blair (rebound specialist) and so on. With the majority of their reserves being spot-up shooters the one type of player that they were missing was somebody that could actively move around the floor offensively and plug in the gaps in the defense to get to the basket. While guys like Matt Bonner and Gary Neal roam the perimeter waiting for a spot-up opportunity Leonard is able to take advantage of a defense more focused on stopping San Antonio's three-point shooting by sneaking behind them to attack the offensive glass and by slashing into the lane when Parker drives, waiting for a drop off pass.
According to NBA.com/stats, of the 326 shots that Leonard has taken this season, 165 have come at the rim. That's good for a whopping 50.6% of his attempts. Leonard hasn't taken more than 25 shots from any other spot on the floor. While their roles are undoubtedly different, not even LeBron James has taken half of his shots at the basket this season. What's most impressive about Leonard's constant assault of the paint is that it is rarely by way of the dribble. Leonard is so good without the ball in his hands that he's managed 165 shots at the basket without having to isolate on the perimeter and drive like so many of today's wing players do. For wing players with at least 50 possessions on cuts to the basket, Leonard ranks fourth in basketball by producing 1.365 points per possessions on 65% shooting.
A good chunk of those buckets at the rim come off of offensive rebounds, where Leonard is elite. Out of all the small forwards in the league that have played 50 games this season, Leonard ranks third in offensive rebounds rate. Leonard produces 1.138 points per possession on offensive put backs, which is better than guys like Chris Bosh, Serge Ibaka and even Kevin Love.
By getting to the basket so often, Leonard is already a very efficient weapon for the Spurs. But he's recently added an element to his game. After shooting 29 percent from 3-point range in college, nobody would have expected Leonard to be an above average long-range shooter this season. But alas, Gregg Popovich poured some of his magic three-point pixie dust on Leonard's head at the beginning of February and he's shot 45 percent from deep since. His current hot streak has him up to 38 percent on the season; 37 of Leonard's 85 three-point attempts have come from the corners, and he's hit 49 percent of those shots.
Albeit on a 1,000 less offensive possessions, Leonard has produced the same amount of points per possession overall this season as LeBron James. For players with at least 390 offensive possessions this season, Leonard has ranked 14th overall in offensive production. Again, few possess Leonard's skill set to where they can have such a tremendous impact without the ball. You have your Ray Allen's of the world that can dominate games by shooting 3s while coming off of screens but there are fewer guys who have a knack for heading towards the basket when they could just as easily stand at the three-point line and wait to shoot.
Leonard reminds me a lot of Matt Barnes, a solid defensive player that thrives in the open spaces on the floor and is an excellent rebounding small forward (he's right behind Leonard in offensive rebound rate). That may not sound like a sexy comparison but realize that Barnes just started a top flight point guard in Ramon Sessions. Since then he's played largely the same game that Leonard is playing for the Spurs. The impressive part is that Barnes is 32 years old and has had years of experience to refine his duties as an off ball threat. Leonard has known where to be on the floor since the day he put on the silver and black and he's already slightly more polished than Barnes.
While more hyped rookies like Jimmer Fredette and Walker struggle to figure out their roles in this league, Leonard is already finding his niche for one of the top teams in basketball. Leonard's feel for the game is extremely uncommon for a rookie and the Spurs were the perfect fit for him. With such a well-crafted offense in place, Leonard has been given the freedom to act as San Antonio's X-acto knife, cutting through the defense surreptitiously and carving out a winning approach for the Spurs.

Maputo — The General Manager of the Mozambican government's Investment Promotion Centre (CPI), Lourenco Sambo, on Monday invited a group of Brazilian businessmen to invest in the country.
The group consists of 12 business people, representing 60 Brazilian companies. On Monday, they took part in a Maputo business seminar with Mozambican counterparts in a range of areas – including the food and drink industry, medical and surgical equipment, information technology and automation, electricity, infrastructures and mining.
Sambo stressed that there are investment opportunities in the Maputo, Limpopo, Beira, Nacala and Pemba-Lichinga road and rail corridors. In all of these corridors, there are agro-ecological conditions appropriate for agricultural and livestock production – including the production of vegetables, fruit, sugar, beans, maize, sesame, chickens and eggs.
"We have well-defined agro-ecological zones and we must produce to reduce the food deficit that still faces the country, and which makes no sense given the existing potential", said Sambo.
97 of the country's farms were tiny, peasant holdings, and only three per cent were commercial farms. "We have to reverse this situation if we want to fight against poverty and transform the country into a major producer", declared Sambo.
Thos who wanted to invest in grain production should look at Sofala, Zambezia, Manica and Tete provinces, he suggested, while cassava grew particularly well in Nampula, Zambezia and Inhambane.
For fruit, vegetable and potato production, Sofala, Tete, Zambezia, Nampula and Cabo Delgado provinces all had great potential. The stress, Sambo said, should not simply be on production, but also on processing, packaging and assembling cold storage systems for conservation.
The best areas for producing oilseeds were the central provinces of Manica, Sofala and Tete, while for investing in livestock, the areas with greatest potential were the southern provinces (Maputo, Gaza and Inhambane), plus Manica, Tete and Zambezia.
The chairperson of the Confederation of Mozambican Business Associations (CTA), Rogerio Manuel, told the seminar "among the advantages of investing in Mozambique are the good business environment, the country's strategic location, its abundance of mineral resources, and its free access to the United States, European Union and SADC (Southern African Development Community) markets".
The chairperson of the Brazil-Mozambique Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture, Rogerio Samo Gudo, said that the demand by Brazilian businesses for investment opportunities has been growing, as has the number of Mozambican business people seeking partnerships with Brazilians because of the latters' experience and technical know-how.
"In the past the relations between Mozambique and Brazil were more cultural, but today they have to do with social and economic development", said Samo Gudo. "We want the relations between the two countries to be more lasting, so that we have more competitive and profitable companies".
The business seminar is part of a Brazil-Mozambique week, running from 10 to 17 November.

Smart dead people once had a theory that a smile can solve conflict. However, when put to the test in school yard brawls and Afro-American gang street wars, smiles got crushed along with many noses and skulls. But several days ago researchers stumbled upon the answer: Teeth-whitening. Smile your way out of any tight situation with today's Groupon – an Opalescence home-whitening treatment kit, dental examination and digital xrays from Melrose Medical and Dental Centre for R1400.
Melrose Medical and Dental Centre, in association with Opalescence, is brightening and whitening smiles all around Joburg with the Opalescence home-whitening kit. This handy kit is perfectly safe and with an examination session or two thrown into the deal, 'home' does not imply that you're in this alone.
The first step in the process involves a dental examination where a mould of the teeth is made. Thereafter the patient is required to sleep with the mould in their mouth like a sleepwalking rugby player for best results or, if impossible to do, a couple of hours a day. If kept up for two weeks, professionals promise results that'll make even the Mona Lisa show some teeth. The procedure also includes between one and six x-rays – dependant on the awesomeness of the teeth involved – documenting the whitening process.
Opalescence is a teeth-whitening procedure that's been introduced in over 80 countries around the world, spreading white smiles since 1999. To ensure results, only accredited dentists are approved to administer any of the Opalescence treatments. If they keep this up, the world might soon see the ever-promised World Peace.
Toothsome fact: The first calculator was made in 1805 using donated human teeth. However they could produce no more than 32 since only one person, Sir Theo AKA 'Big Plus', had teeth big enough for the plus button. Sir Theo donated all his teeth in return for gift vouchers at the local butchery.

'vox mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
Richard - I just bought I new laptop last week. I was sort of going down the
same road, I started with a 2500 budget, and started looking at IBM's, then
Dell's, then Compaq/HP's... but you know for the same money I decided to go
with a relatively unknown brand (unknown to me anyway) called Sager
(www.sagernotebook.com), because for the same price as a relatively ok IBM
or Dell I got a notebook which is completely loaded.
I got a P4 2.4Ghz (this is a desktop P4 - not a P4-M), 1Gb DDR ram, 60gb
5400rpm hdd, ATI Radeon 9000 64mb graphics, dvd/cd-rw drive, floppy, crystal
clear 15" display running at 1600x1200 :-)
The out the door price for this was 2300. I wanted a desktop relacement that
I could use for my software development, so I need to run db server and app
servers on the same box, as well as my development IDE, so I was looking for
a desktop replacement that will supplement my desktop at home when I'm at
home, but be able to take with me easily when I'm travelling on consulting
projects (plus be beefy enough for some occaisonal gaming :-)
So far I am *VERY* impressed... this is the fastest PC I have seen or used
in a long time - I am very pleased! It weighs a bit on the heavy side at
10lb, but for only occaisonal travel this is fine with me.
I have PowerQuest Bootmagic on there so I can dual boot between XP Pro and
SuSe Linux (I haven't installed linux yet - although I can let you know how
I get on if you're interested.)
Theres some forums at http://sagerforums.com/forums/ with linux install and
support info if you're interested.
This laptop as far as I can make out is manufactured by a company in Taiwan
called Clevo, and is resold in the US by several companies (Sager being
one - they give lifetime tech support BTW). Other places you can look for
the same laptop: www.powernotebooks.com, www.pctorque.com, www.prostar.com,
Alienware also sell one model in rather fetching colors :-)
As others have mentioned you could get a lower spec laptop to run linux and
be just fine, but I just wanted to mention another option - I certainly
hadn;'t heard of Sager before I started searching around, and I am more than
pleased with them so far :-)
Hope that helps,

Wednesday, Georgia Southern athletic director Tom Kleinlein said the NCAA's legislative review committee denied the Eagles' waiver to participate in a bowl this season. Kleinelin will file another appeal to the NCAA membership committee. He expects to hear from that committee later this week or early next week.
Southern is in its transition season into the Football Bowl Subdivision and the Sun Belt Conference, but has been a surprise team by going undefeated through seven league games so far and capturing at least a share of the conference's title.

Former Georgia Southern quarterback Jaybo Shaw will return to the Eagles program as a graduate assistant coach.
Shaw was a key transfer for coach Jeff Monken, who brought the option offense back to GSU in 2010. Shaw, an option quarterback who started his collegiate career at Georgia Tech, led the Eagles to a 10-5 records and a semifinal appearance in the FCS playoffs in 2010.
Under Shaw's leadership, GSU won the Southern Conference title and again advanced to the semifinals in the playoffs, finishing the 2011 season with an 11-3 mark.

If you are a present-day Republican, your party does not care about you.
The GOP has consistently favored the uber-rich and corporations over US citizens for the last 25 years.
That is not my opinion, that is the disheartening truth.
You can not defend this party any longer.

eI read a few reviews about the Claypot Chicken Rice at Koon Kee Restaurant and not knowing what to eat for dinner, we decided to try it out. Located in Damansara Jaya, the same row of shophouses as Domino's Pizza, this corner coffee shop is quite busy. Luckily, we were served almost immediately, so I think they must have some pre-cooked rice ready.
We ordered a claypot of rice for 2 person. Generous amount of chinese sausages and the best thing is that they only use chicken drumsticks. The salted fish enhanced the flavour of the rice. Not bad...but personally, if only the rice a bit dry (grains by grains), then it would be even better.
I was so excited when I saw "Black Pepper Pig's Stomach Soup" in their menu. Serving was small and basically it's tasteless. No pepper no salt...it's more like water with pig's stomach. Total disappointment.
We also ordered Boiled Yau Mak and Hubby didn't like it at all. To me, it's just another plate of veggie...nothing special.
Not sure of the price breakdown but if not mistaken, the whole meal costs about RM24. Reasonable i guess.

pink elle: If taken into consideration the total food quality, Busy Corner would be my preference. The soup there is really good! Especially Peanut Soup.

When it comes to claypot chicken rice, the 2 stalls in Pudu will be used as my benchmark. Let me try this Koon Kee and compare 'em all.
I really think Busy Corner's claypot chicken rice is very mediocre though.
- Tuesday, April 17, 2007
I tried Busy Corner as mentioned by tankiasu .. the one in D'sara near KDU. I actually like it ... especially because it has variety. I should be writing an article for them soon. Keep posted.

The pig stomach soup looks very diluted... sorry to hear that it's disappointing.

Guys u shoulds try the claypot chicken rice at "Heun Kee Claypot Chicken Rice " at Pudu near the diagonally opposite Pudu wet market. Operating for more than 20 over years. Very good food.

Best Dressed at the OscarsPosted: February 27, 2012 Filed under: Movies, Random | Tags: 84th annual Academy Awards, academy award, academy awards, best dressed, Cameron Diaz, kate winslet, Octavia Spencer, Oscars 2012, Pharrell Williams, The Help Leave a comment
Since I wasn't the best at picking the Oscar winners, I think I'll give it a shot at picking some of the best dressed stars at the 84th annual Academy Awards.
On another note, was anyone else wondering where Kate Winslet was?! She's probably prepping for the rerelease of "Titanic" in 3D…I know I am!
Cameron Diaz
I loved this dress! Just like everything else, it fit Cameron like a glove and her arms look like she has been lifting soup cans on overtime. Good choice girl!
*You can creep on Natalie Portman's polka-dot dress in the background.
Meryl Streep
Meryl shined in gold…just like the Oscar statue she took home for "The Iron Lady" last night. When I saw this dress, I likened it to something a woman living in Rome during the Julius Caesar era would wear. It just works.
Octavia Spencer
The well-deserved Best Supporting Actress winner sparkled in this beautiful dress. It's versatile…you could wear this to da club or a classy event.
Pharrell Williams
Oh Pharrell…he played the drums at the big show and I was all about it. I think the only thing that would have made his tux better was if he paired it with a trucker hat.
That's all for me folks! What were your picks for best dressed last evening?

By inducing a small electron temperature perturbation in a plasma in steady state one can in principle determine the conductive and convective components of the electron heat flux, and the associated thermal diffusivity and convection velocity. The same can be done for other plasma parameters, like density or ion temperature.In this paper experimental and analysis techniques are briefly reviewed. The fundamental question whether the fluxes are linear functions of the gradients or not is discussed. Experimental results are summarized, including so-called 'non-local' phenomena.

While he has been a part of Salman Khan's family for a long time, Atul Agnihotri's last production 'Bodyguard' saw a grand success owing to his brother-in-law Salman's power packed performance and some great music. And now, Atul plans to experiment some more with his recent film 'O Teri', which is a satire with a political backdrop. Considering the fact that Atul had previously worked with A-listers, this time around he works with newbies. In this interview, Atul reveals about working with young rising stars, on the current political scenario in India and much more.
'Bodyguard' was more of action while 'O Teri' is more of satire… why this shift?
'O Teri' has elements of action but yes, it is not an out and out action film. That is because when you make a film with bhai (Salman), there are a lot of 'larger than life' factors according to his audience's expectations. Here, we are making a film with a newer cast and with a youth oriented thought! So we realize that we will have to try harder to entertain and will have to up our level of humour, the songs and make it quick and pacy. So we were striving to be over-efficient so that we can get acceptance. 'O Teri' is also a film with a heart. Mostly, humour is associated with senseless comedy but here; the movie takes you somewhere and is very relevant in today's times. Today, we have a thinking audience who are aware of world events and we wanted to get their attention by putting in current issues.
After a massive success with superstars Kareena and Salman, was there a reason why you selected newbies Pulkit and Bilal for this film?
The reason is that because there was a different 'superstar' in this film and that's the script! As rightly said by my father-in-law Salim Khan, 'The examiner will never give marks for handwriting, it will always be for content.' Here the 'examiner' is the audience and they will always be content-hungry. Time and again, we have known that if we give them something new and interesting, they will surely come. Good content should sell, otherwise, as an industry…we have no hope. And the reason why I thought that Pulkit and Bilal would fit the roles perfectly was because I wanted a young Aamir and Salman for this 'Andaz Apna Apna' kind of funny bone film! They had to be the representatives of the youth, who, later, become heroes. As the plot moves on, they realize that press folks have courage and realize the responsibility of being the moral police of the second largest population in the world.
You have known the boys Pulkit and Bilal for long…. So how was it working with them professionally?
I don't like …continued »

1/3/10 - Backpacked 7 miles to Horn Fork Basin. Climbed Harvard the next day and then Columbia the following day before packing out. Took more or less the standard route; it was extremely windscoured. Just under 2.5 hours from camp to summit on a sunny, windless winter day!

I got one of these in-ear headset with the soft rubber, the right side keept blown out(the side with the control) on me, exchanged for the third times since bought it. I hope they fix that problem too, rather than just replace a new cushion for your ears.
Apple Stealth-Updates Premium In-Ear Headset for iPhone 3GS
Apple has stealthily updated their premium in-ear headset with remote and mic. What exactly did they update? Well nothing major but it's an update regardless - they replaced the soft rubber 3.5 mm headphone plug casing with a hard plastic one. So now instead of the soft rubber falling off we will now start to see the hard plastic replacement crack. ;)
All joking aside, Apple really got these headphones almost perfect. And as a bonus they are now fully compatible with iPhone 3GS. Sorry first generation and 3G owners, you are still missing out on the control features.
Be sure to check out Rene's full review from this past January.

Apple Stealth-Updates Premium In-Ear Headset for iPhone 3GS
Frankly, apple headphones in my opinion are very poorly made and have a very limited life.
Genuine replacements are overpriced leading me to using originals until they break and then buying 3rd party (cheaper, better sound quality (no mike)) replacements (which generally have 3 times the lifespan).
I love Apple products but I do find quality to be average at best these days...
I love
I just hope that they stick in the ear better and don't fall out so darn often.
Oh and the USB charger is so cheap... The USB CABLE THAT CAME WITH THE FIRST GENERATION IPHONE LAST LONGER..
Next up Apple Bluetooth Headphones since the you can't use all the controls on your now because we designed it not to work so we can get you again. Lol.
The only controls that don't work on the 3G are the volume controls. Track changing, pause, accepting calls etc works just fine.
No, these are far from perfect. I can not stress how bad these headphones are for the cost apple charges. The sound quality is not good and the ear bud fall out(more than other in-ear headphones I've had)...the biggest complaint though, is def sound quality.
I'm going to try the bose, but I'm not sure..any one with alt ideas?
To be honest, for those who are bashing, Just leave this post alone. Go put your £300.00 Shure SE530s' back in your ears and have a nice day.
There are some of us who are not audiophiles who would like to spend less then £80 on a pair of headphones, because we don't need to hear every single detail of our music, Sometimes, we just need something that do a good job at blocking out a large majority of the surrounding noise, and have added functionality (the mic/remote bit)
It is somewhat sad that my iPhone 3G can't use the audio adjustment buttons, when my second generation iPod Touch can, I will admit, but for £60 I'm really happy with the audio quality of these, They sound on-par with a pair of £80 Sony Monitors.
And to get back to the subject of this post, This change has been in place for a while now actually, I bought a pair of these last month at an Apple Store and they had this connector on them, which did take me by surprise, but so far I'm liking it, It makes me worry less about having the little matte rubber "sleeve" come off in time.
Fantastic post on the blog bro. This specific is just a notably nicely structured article post on the blog, just the info I was seeking for. Kudos

Powered Pallet Truck (PPT) Training
The Powered Pallet Truck (PPT) is the basic warehouse workhorse; they handle goods at ground level, assembling orders, marshalling pallets, loading and unloading vehicles and a host of other important tasks. They are a service vehicle to the Reach Trucks (R/T), Counterbalanced Fork Lift Truck (C/B) and Very narrow Aisle machines (VNA) in other parts of the warehouse, this is an important function because these other machines are more specialized and often dedicated to one task or part of the warehouse.
Typically they work in aisles (sometimes just 2.5 metres) with or without platforms, they can handle two or
three pallets at one time for high volume movement of goods, often called double or triple pallet handlers.
Correct training is vital for these seemingly simple and yet effective operations for it is well documented
that there are higher risks with lower limb injuries. These vehicles play an important part in providing low
cost pallet movement. As with all mechanical handling aids, PPT operators must be trained, tested and carry a current certificate of competence.

Japan's All Nippon Airways (ANA) has unveiled capacity cuts generated from the upcoming suspension of services on two routes and a switch to smaller aircraft or reduction in frequency on several others.
The Star Alliance carrier says in a statement that on 26 October it will be suspending its Nagoya-Taipei daily service and on 13 January will suspend its daily Osaka Kansai-Guam service.
ANA uses Boeing 767-300ERs on the Guam route and Boeing 737-700s on the Taipei route and it makes no mention of when the services may resume.
The airline also says on 1 November it is reducing the frequency of services on the Sapporo-Sendai, Memanbetsu-Osaka Kansai, Sapporo-Osaka Kansai, Tokyo Haneda-Osaka Kansai, Tokyo Haneda-Oshima and Osaka Kansai-Okinawa domestic routes.
On 1 February it is reducing the frequency of services on the Kagoshima-Okinawa and Nagoya-Matsuyama domestic routes, it adds.
Other capacity cuts will be achieved by moving to smaller aircraft for services linking Nagoya with Hangzhou in China as well as for services linking Tokyo Haneda with Shanghai Hongqiao in China. In addition, smaller aircraft will be used on some Tokyo Narita-Hangzhou and Tokyo Narita-Shanghai Pudong flights, it says.
"The changes are a consequence of the increasing price of Dubai crude oil," says ANA, adding that its earlier plans were based on the assumption crude oil would be $95 a barrel but in fact it is now around $130 a barrel.
"ANA is expecting its fuel bill this year to increase by ¥40 billion ($369 million) year-on-year to more than ¥300 billion," it adds.
