Margaret Thatcher once known as the Iron lady with Iron cast… is now at 82 and suffers from dementia. This illness has been robbing her of her memory.. and coupled by a few mini strokes.. this awesome and once upon a time the toughest woman i’ve come to be acquainted to.. now no longer has a memory of a website. But we all do grow old donch we..? It’s just sad.. to see her this way.. but no many women in my lifetime had lead a more meaningful life than she did.
Yes..!! the Olympics ended yesterday in Beijing with much celebration.. and pretty dramatic too.. from what i’ve heard. I have a Swiss friend stationed in Beijing .. and he was in some of the games .. as a spectator. From him .. i heard that plans were sent to the air to disperse some sort of materials to ensure the no rain would fall during the ceremony. Wonder what they did eh..?
There was a countdown.. followed by some awesome fireworkds.. and some flying daggers show.. and 200 drummers. I also hear that the world famous spanish tenor Palcido Domingo sang a duet wtih Song ZuYing a Chinese soprano star. Now that would be a sight .. and good listening. .for all..??
Look at the crowd..! So what’s next ..?? for china.. after the Olympics..??
Why..?? because there are stars like Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell and Jude Law .. with big hearts and donated their pay for their final film with Heath Ledger to this 2 years old. They were worried for lil’ Matilda because Heath’s will did not include the lil’ gal. What a shame..!
Director of Heath Leger last and latest movie, Dark Knight said that the 3 stars did not take the money .. but all of it goes to Health’s daughter..!! Awwww..!! what big man . .they are..!! they surely get my respect from now on. What wonderful men..!! we gotta love men like that..!
Yes..!! how low can ppl get..?? Here we have a family still in grieving. .and the poor dead man’s bone prolly haven’t even turned to dust yet.. and we have someone posing as the victim’s relative.. and trying to cash in on it. Sad..! sad..!! if you are that scum reading this.. BE VERY ASHAMED OF YOURSELF..!! there is what we call Karma.
This scumbag.. went on facebook.. whereby someone else had put up the page to pay tribute to Tim Mclean .. and posing as his sister.. had told facebook owner.. how they were having a hard time dealing with the killing.. and all. Never thought otherwise, he turned the facebook to scumbag imposter.. but this was later found out .. when the real “amanda” came to light.
I hope whoever this scumbag is.. he or she or even they should be put behind bars..!! or maybe Tim Mclean should pay this scumbag a visit eh..?? afterall.. it is the chinese ghost month right now.
What a surprised.. ??!!!!?? DUH..!!
Looks like anyone who depends on the summer.. and tourism had been affected.. because traveling which should had been all time high.. were actually lower. .than expected.. but it was no surprised.. not even to a layman like me.
With the fuel prices that were non controllable.. who could be traveling for leisure these days. Despite saying this.. the man’s cousins still came over from Toronto.. so yes.. we still have ppl traveling.. but i guessed they saved on hotel. .and some other stuff.. since they have their summer house here.. .and family. So how has the fuel’s yo yo affected you .. in your country..?
Darn Canadians..!! getting some 50 foot screens in their cinemas and plans to open up to 29 theatres across Canada and has a rental scheme allowing 12 people to share and play for $179 for a 2 hrs session with any one of their giant screen. So at $5 bucks a person .. it’s not too bad. But to be able to gather 12 people at the same time.. and wanting to play the same game..?? You have a choice to use your own.. or their pre loaded ones. Comes with surround sound and you get the ultimate gaming experience. We’ll try it at least once eh.
A chinese journalist used twitter .. to inform others of his arrest by security forces during the olympics and was forced to go somewhere far away from the event. It was said .. that Zhou the chinese journalist was ordered to meet the police and accused of having 2 kids in the 1 kid bylaw of China.. and local limit. But according to Zhou.. he is childless.. therefore the accusation was baseless. Zhou 27 was placed under arrest when he arrived at the police station .. and was driven to a mining town and currently under house arrest till the Olympics is over..?
We’ve heard alot about the chinese laws in China.. and i’m not hopeful for Zhou at all. There is no appeals.. and it is still pretty much a communist kinda practice.. from what i’ve heard.
Now that’s really bad.. !! a prettier lil’ gal was used to show the world.. and lip syn the opening ceremony song for the olympic all because the real chinese gal who can sing .. was not as pretty. Lin Miaoke was put on stage instead of Yang Peiy .. because the government wanted the world to see that the chinese gals .. are pretty..?? That’s just sad..!! and also deceiving the public or rather the whole world.. by using one girl voice and the other girl looks. The Chinese officials deemed Yang not pretty enough to represent China.. and was said.. she was not chosen because of her crooked teeth..! How shallow is that..??
In the first place . .why was a propane depot allowed in a residential area..?? this is what i cannot comprehend..!! surely the town and the council. . couldn’t have signed the papers to allow this to have happened. A body was found on late Monday after a series of massive explosions and we donch know if the body belongs to an employee ..?
Hundreds of people were barred from their homes.. and don’t know when they can returned. How can the town/government been so careless..??
Very shocking..?? indeed..!! I really feel sorry for this man .. by the name of Dede Koswara aka the Tree Man Of Java. Look at his hands..!!! how was he gonna do anything with hands like that.. and folks that donch know him.. would probably freaked right out.
He is said to be a very normal kid.. with only a bump that started .. and then developing all these warts that spread all over his body … and his hands and even face were covered with them. His wife of 10 yrs even left him.. because of his barklike growth.. for he wasn’t able to support her or their children. And I read that he was performing in some traveling freak show.. to support himself..!! not that is sad.. i really feel for this man.
Dede Koswara suffers what is known as a rare condition called epidermodysplasia verruciformis. Even i can’t pronounced nor spelled it .. much less know what the hell this is. B\but i know that this disease is caused by HPV .. that leads to the growth of macules and papules on the skin especially the hands and the feet. I am just so happy for him.. for being able to get treatment. This American dermatologist from University of Maryland.. called Anthony Gaspari .. prolly saved Dede’s life.. and gave him… a reason to live on.. .and even find a new love.. when he is cured.
This is an absolutely magnificent sight. during the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics 2008 of course in Beijing’s Bird Nest National Stadium. The fireworks would send just about anyone in awe. Definitely an experienced for those who were lucky enough to get tickets to watch it at the stadium. I hear great performances, excellent choreographed shows and many dazzling effects and of course the magnificent fireworks .. was like none others.
The Olympics has started..!! Awesome..!! We all should be proud as Chinese. This has to do with the world.. and not just Beijing or the Chinese.
Yes.. this birdnest like stadium is where the Olympics 2008 will be held. Either the Chinese loves their birdnest alot.. or somebody was having a bad day. .when designing this. I also heard from a friend.. who is in Beijing.. that they only announced today.. that it was gonna be a public holiday.. on 8th and today is already the 6th. So smart to the Chinese government..??
Beheading another man is not normal.. and Vince Li supposedly did it .. to a 22 yrs old man – Tim Mclean on bus a greyhound. This is not only shocking to the community in Edmonton and Winnipeg but all of Canada that something so tragic could have happened. And it didn’t even seems like Vince Li or Tim Mclean had known each other.
Shocking as it might had been for those who knew Li .. what about those who loved the victim..?? what caused the attack..?? and will the killer plead temporary insanity..?? Charged with second degree murder.. i seriously doubt.. the family and friends of victim .. Tim MClean would be so forgiving and I donch blame them.
Very strong ones by the ex Prime Minister of Malaysia .. Mr M. Mahathir. In his blog.. he had written that Malaysia supports the criminal action of former British Prime Minister who had lied to his Parliament and to the British people about the war in Iraq and the Weapons of Mass Destruction, thus supporting the Bush administration to attack Iraq.
Because of Tony Blair’s endorsement . .thousands of innocents were killed.. and cities destroyed, together with the water supply and electricity to Iraq. Many soldiers from Canada.. and USA .. and other places are still in Iraq.. and being killed everyday.
Since no weapons of mass destruction were found.. Dr Mahathir feels that both Blair and Bush should be condemned as the worst ever criminals on earth in this century. Why..?? Because of the senseless killing .. the pointless launched of attack to Iraq and Iraqis.. the mass killing of innocent people that they had ordered to be carried out.. without any mercy.
All the above are very strong allegations.. not only to Tony Blair but to President Bush. Are there any truth in it..??
