Was watching The Kardashians. The Kardashian sisters, Kourtney, Kim and Khloe were concerned that some of their fans think Kim had butt implant.
What impressed me the most was the fact that it took just a little rationalisation among them and Kim agreed to do an x-ray of her butt. Just to prove to their fans that she didn't have a butt implant to look sexy.
The doctor they went to see first took an x-ray of Kourtney's breast implant in order to make comparison with Kim's butt.
Well, the x-ray confirmed that Kim's butt is 'original'. No implant.
Moral of the story is, when one has nothing to hide, there is no need for excuses.
Can't help but make comparison with the TUNDA TUNDA case.

One Man's Meat
Read this on Yahoo News Malaysia today.
A group of 365 Malaysian Christians, including Catholics, have signed a letter addressed to Pope Benedict XVI, complaining about Prime Minister Najib Abdul Razak's crackdown on the July 9 peaceful protest for electoral reforms.
They also expressed concern over the timing of Najib's visit to the Vatican, and pointed out the lack of religious freedom in Malaysia, citing the Lina Joy court case and the seizure of books on Christianity as examples.
The 365 signatories also expressed concern that Najib's visit to the Vatican at this time could be seen as securing popular support for the coming 13 th general election, which must be held by mid-2013, and which could result in him clinging to power.
The letter, titled “Recent Political and Social Developments in Malaysia: Towards a more comprehensive understanding of realities in Malaysia”, and published in full by the NGO Aliran, is addressed to the Pontiff, with a copy also sent to Archbishop Leopoldo Girelli, who is based in Singapore.
And this:-
The article titled “Taken to the cleaners — an overzealous government response to an opposition rally” chronicles the chaos on July 9 when police fired tear gas and water cannon to disperse the tens of thousands who took to the city’s streets here to demand electoral reforms.
Although the full article is available online, the Home Ministry still inked out four lines in the article, one of which notably reported on the death of one man during the rally.
Baharuddin Ahmad, the husband of a PKR leader, collapsed while trying to escape the chaos on July 9 and has now been elevated to “hero” status by rally supporters bent on ensuring his death had not been in vain.
Of course the source is Malaysiakini.
Rais Yatim won a suit againt a blogger. [read here and here]
Isn't anyone interested to follow suit with the above postings?
Rocky Bru reported a rally in London last Friday [15 July?]. Based on the pictures, it was a BERSIH rally.
1. The police allowed the protesters to hold a demonstration
2. The protesters agreed to confine themselves to the road divider and only to the road divider (which is about 30 feet long, I guess)
3. No protester must cross the line (except when snapping pictures of themselves)
4. A couple of uniformed cops were present to ensure that the protesters did not cross the line
5. The protesters had to observe a time limit
Compared to the one held in KL on July 9th ... with over 100 000 protesters [the opposition would swear by this number], Outsyed The Box deduced the number to be 3000 at the most [read here] (my typing of the the zeroes is correct!): I wasn't there, so I wouldn't know how many people turned up.
I do not believe that the KL 'demonstration' would have been as peaceful as the one in London despite Mat Sabu's promise.
I don't understand why they insisted on marching on July 9th using the excuse that YDP Agong gave his blessing and DS Najib promised a stadium. DS Najib NEVER promised Stadium Merdeka and YDP Agong NEVER agreed for BERSIH 2.0 to march to Istana Negara on the 9th to hand in their memorandum.
I had expected when BERSIH 2.0 had audience with YDP Agong, they would have handed in their memorandum. And if they still wanted to have a peaceful protest, they could have applied for permit and hold it in a stadium.
I believe, had BERSIH 2.0 applied for permit to do it in a stadium, the police would have no excuse to deny them.
I also believe that if BERSIH 2.0 had no hidden agenda, they did not have to insist on Stadium Merdeka. Since they expected a huge crowd, why Stadium Merdeka which definitely could not hold 100 000 demonstrators.
If they were to have applied for permit AFTER they went to see YDP Agong, it wouldn't be issued for July 9th. Why can't they wait? Takut nanti orang antarabangsa kata penganjur tak de taring? Takut wartawan luar tak boleh tunggu?
Look at how Malaysiakini played up the death issue of one of the protesters despite proven that it was a lie. Here is a statement from the police [cilok nih dari blog mana ntah. Ampun neh, mokcik ralit blog hopping lupe jumpe nih kat blog sapa]
Yesterday I joined a few colleagues for breakfast. They were talking about that RM73m ring. Their issue was the impossibility for Rosmah to have saved that amount of money since she was small. Tak masuk di akal mereka. They have no problem at all with the ring being sent by a courier.
I don't understand how so many people can swallow all the lies.

Kokok Berderai Derai Ekor Bergelumang Tahi
Dulu heboh sekejap pasal rumah pelacuran bersepah di ibu negeri serambi Mekah. Ada blog yang menyiarkan laporan hasil siasatan siap gambar gambar lagi. Tak berapa hari, isu tu senyap.
Kini wujud pulak polemik berkaitan penguatkuasaan Enakmen Hiburan dan Tempat tempat Hiburan 1997 yang dicetuskan MB Kedah.
Dapat link ni setelah baca posting terbaru satD
**... Sehubungan itu, Presiden PAS, Tuan Guru Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang berkata pusat hiburan di Kedah akan beroperasi seperti biasa pada bulan Ramadhan namun ia terhad kepada orang bukan Islam sahaja.
Perkara itu dijelaskan beliau pada sidang media selepas mesyuarat Jawatankuasa Kerja PAS Pusat di sebuah hotel di sini.
Turut serta pada sidang media itu, Naib Presiden PAS, Datuk Mahfuz Omar, Salahudin Ayub dan Setiausaha Agung PAS, Datuk Mustafa Ali.
"PAS ambil jalan terbaik yang tidak boleh diselesai oleh Umno iaitu tidak menghalang hak orang bukan Islam dalam masa yang sama orang Islam tidak boleh mengerjakan maksiat.
"Orang Umno buat peraturan orang Islam boleh masuk tempat maksiat, tempat judi. Kita buat pembetulan supaya pengendali pusat hiburan dikalangan orang bukan Islam buat peraturan agar orang Islam tidak boleh masuk," katanya yang juga ahli parlimen Marang.
Keputusan itu juga katanya telah dipersetujui oleh pengusaha pusat-pusat hiburan di negeri itu dan bersedia diambil tindakan termasuk menarik lesen perniagaan jika gagal berbuat demikian.
Penjelasan itu dibuat selepas mesyuarat tersebut mendengar penerangan dari wakil kerajaan negeri Kedah iaitu Setiausaha Politik kepada menteri besar, Mohd Sanusi Md Noor.
Hasrat sebenar perlaksanaan undang-undang itu kata Abdul Hadi, bertujuan mencegah orang bukan islam melakukan maksiat sepanjang bulan Ramadhan.
Bagaimanapun kekeliruan telah berlaku berhubung perkara itu ekoran media arus perdana yang tidak menyiarkan laporan tepat sehingga membangkitkan rasa kurang senang di kalangan orang bukan Islam.
"Di sana banyak perkara-perkara tidak tepat di lapor media yang sengaja dimainkan Umno Barisan Nasional.
"Kita membetulkan peraturan yang salah yang dibuat Umno. Umno membenar pusat hiburan kepada bukan Islam, dan tidak ada peraturan tegas bagi menghalang orang Islam" tambahnya.
Sementara itu, Mohd Sanusi yang ditemui selepas itu berkata, penguatkuasaan enakmen itu adalah tanggungjawab pihak polis. **
Banyak cantik!!!
Dalam isu Bersih 2.0 tak pulak nak dengar arahan polis.
Ini dia berkokok berdegar degar, siap kutuk "orang Umno buat peraturan" [entah-entahkan masa Enakmen tu digubal dan diluluskan Parlimen, PAS ada dalam Perikatan pun] alih alih dia duat disclaimer konon penguatkuasaan enakmen itu adalah tanggungjawab polis.
I was expecting The Monkey to hurl his bestest expletives towards this mamat SU MB tapi tak de pulak. Tu pasal hangin satu badan mokcik nih.
Here is a great posting by someone who know what he is talking about regarding this issue.

June July August
19 June - was born wayyyyyy back in 1960. Now BOTH children are grown up. Married off the younger one. Have stepped on Haraam Soil and performed minor haj. Started blogging in 2006 and enjoying my moments on blogosphere. Never did I imagine to be sharing and exchanging views with great people in cyber space [must thank my blogging sifus; HMom and sher. My journey to this point in life would have been a tremendously boring, lonely and so much less meaningful one. Thank you girls for getting me started].
Today is 1st of July. The sun is bright and the sky is clear but there is a smell of something dark and sinister brewing. The writings on many walls in this corner of cyberspace are pregnant with malice. 9th July is looming.
As contemplated by Voices Around here I too have been wondering who would be going to the street. And for what purpose? To bring about a change because the present government is obscenely corrupted and oppresive and apertheid? Reading the responses to milosuam's posting here, gave me cause for despair. Reminds me so much of my students' responses when I asked them why are their capital letters the same size as small letters ... "saja suke! dah biase! cantek seme sama saiz! (just because! used to it! uniform size is nice!). All I see is plentiful of FOAMS.
I am against corruption and oppresion. All my life, I believe I have been a victim. I wanted change. But, NOT this way ...

Would like to share this from MI
MAY 19 — I am a Malay working overseas. I find working in Malaysia unattractive due to the following reasons. I don’t want to belabour the points, so I list them down in point form:
Chinese chauvinism/racism
• Most private organisations including TMI are dominated by the Chinese and/or their political agenda.
• Chinese people have a tendency to assign negative stereotypes on other races (especially the Bumiputera races).
• They exhibit cliquish, insular, secretive and calculating behaviour.
• Chinese people favour fair-skinned people even though fair skin is disadvantageous in Malaysia’s sunny climate.
• They admire China’s achievements, despite China’s oppressive regime.
• Malaysian Chinese use the Chinese languages (Mandarin, Cantonese, Hokkien etc.) to isolate their discussion from others while in their presence.
• The Chinese are not honest about failures of ethnic Chinese leaderships in Philippines and Thailand.
• Tokenism is rife in Chinese companies.
• Chinese will use changing criteria to judge people of other ethnicities; one day it is academic merit, another day it may be “character.”
• The Chinese favour their own kind over others, even when other kinds are of equal stature.
• Malays fear to voice out against Chinese for fear of repercussions especially with respect to their employment prospects in the private sector.
• The Chinese still hold strongly to their ethnic heritage.
• They diminish the achievement of other races, especially the Malays.
• Harp on Bumiputera affirmative action even though Chinese people still continue to succeed at all levels of Malaysian life (even government).
• Any Malay who has strong academic background is denounced as attaining it due to “Bumiputera privilege”, even though he graduated overseas with his own money.
• Use their overseas Chinese connection to gain unfair advantage, but pretend the advantage is minimal.
• The Chinese always make unfair comparisons of Malaysia with other non-Muslim, post-industrial countries.
• Chinese people don’t recognise the special position Islam has in Malaysia.
• Enjoy talking bad about Malaysia (even when working/living overseas) as if Malaysia is on the same level as Zimbabwe even though Malaysia is far from it.
• Highly critical of institutions that are Bumiputera-dominated (ie. government), but non-critical of institutions that are Chinese dominant (like gambling).
• Show no desire to partake in patriotic activities (e.g. serve in army), but cry foul when other people point out their lack of patriotism.
• Show lack of understanding about Islamic religion, but enjoy taking Quranic verses out of context to further their argument.
• If pushed to think “outside the box”, the Chinese would favour Western ideals above Islamic ideals.
• The Chinese show lack of respect toward Malay leaders, but accord unnecessary respect to their Chinese community leaders, even though they hold no significant position in government.
• Always speak about “brain drain” but still keep Malaysian passports.
• Willing to spread disingenuous claim that Bumis have already achieved economic parity with the Chinese.
• Use Indians who have achieved to further their claim that Indian community is ahead of the Malay community.
• Comments in support of Chinese chauvinistic agenda are allowed to be posted in TMI, while others are censored.
• I can go on and on with more example, but I grow tired and annoyed.
PAS religionism
• Holds only their interpretation of Islam to be the truth.
• Willing to associate themselves with and be used by non-Muslims while creating enmity toward other Muslims.
• Use religion as a political tool to win arguments and foment discord.
• Ritualistic mentality.
• Have a simplistic idea/concept of the world and its affairs.
Umno nationalism
• Partake in bully politics.
• Enjoy seeing minor issues such as sexual improprieties take over the national discourse.
• Willing to give in to fervent Malay nationalism.
• Must “ampu” within Umno hierarchical structure to get to higher positions.
• Anti-intellectualism.
• Unwillingness to adapt and change to satisfy changing political climate.
Indian shiftiness
• Willing to change their allegiance due to changing political tide.
• Belief that Indian subcontinent will help them, like mainland China helps Malaysian Chinese.
• Dishonest about their caste and other internal problems.
Malaysian culture as a whole
• No proper understanding of logic and reason.
• Has not understood to segregate religious thinking from secular reasoning.
• Lost sensitivities towards other religions/races.
• Still admire Western culture, without studying their obvious weaknesses.
• Always sidetracked by minor issues rather than seeing bigger picture.
• Media not mature to show all sides of the story, media is all very partisan.
• Partisanship is being promoted at all levels from the family microcosm to the national level.
Well, couldn't agree more!.
1st August is the start of fasting month. Yeayyyy! Raya will be at the end of the month. Double yeaayyy!!
