Have you ever heard life explained better than this? TWO WOLVES One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson about a battle that goes on inside people. He said: "My son, the battle is between two wolves inside us all. "One is Evil - It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, superiority, and ego. "The other is Good - It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith." The grandson thought about it heart has minute and then asked his grandfather": Which wolf wins?" The old Cherokee simply replied: "The one you feed."

KUALA LUMPUR: The Bar Council will go ahead and sue the Government even if it should apologise for the arrest of five legal aid lawyers outside the Brickfields police station on May 7. Its president Ragunath Kesavan said any apology was a separate issue from the impending court action. “The lawyers were detained overnight and as far as we are concerned, it’s their right to take action. “It’s travesty of law when a lawyer who is there to meet a client in the police station is arrested for carrying out his duty. “The court action is still ongoing and we will definitely file it on behalf of the lawyers,” he told reporters after handing over a memorandum to Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department Datuk Seri Nazri Abdul Aziz at the Parliament lobby here yesterday. Ragunath said the council had also lodged a complaint with the Malaysian Human Rights (Suhakam) Commission as it concerned a breach of human rights. “There are provisions under the Suhakam Act which says they cannot proceed wi...

This is a damn good joke. Why football is played for 45 minutes per half-time? Those who thought of this must have lots of time. Why people play football for 45 minutes, not 30 minutes or 1 hour? Even the sports scientist and some of the senior players could not give the right answer. In that confusing situation one person came up with a reasonable answer. He said "The reason people play this game for 45 minutes is... There are 2 teams and there are 11 players in each team. Each player brings his own "2 balls" So in total there are 44 balls. There is one ball on the ground itself. Thus the grand total is 45". Question Answered !! Sometimes there is extra time of 2 mins which is the referee's balls!

What do we look for in a photograph before and after we capture an image? We want to have an image that is pleasing to view by both you and others. An image that tells a story. You look for an image that has content in lines, shades and composition. I suggest you start off by shooting in b&w so your concentration is on content alone. You should be able to see something to capture without looking through the viewfinder. Once you have an image in mind then view it trough the viewfinder to pull it all together. I suggest when you have an image in sight you get the right exposure and then bracket both up and down. If you are capturing an image that has depth which is having all in focus from the foreground to the background you will have to use a high f/stop number which means a slow shutter speed will follow, then you will need a tripod to keep it rock steady. I would say to start off with shooting images without people or moving objects, once you feel that you have gained learning th...

Bar concerned over police harassment PETALING JAYA: The Bar Council is alarmed that the police continue to harass and intimidate lawyers by calling them in for questioning on matters relating to the execution of their professional duties. President Ragunath Kesavan said recently, lawyer Chan Kok Keong was served a Section 111 notice that was silent on the subject he would be questioned bout. At the interview, he was asked regarding an affi davit that had been affi rmed by his client, former Perak assembly speaker V. Sivakumar, in a suit where Chan is representing the said client. Lawyers representing Chan in this matter were themselves informed that they would be required to give statements if they wished to accompany Chan at the interview. “Such questioning makes a complete mockery of the fundamental principle of solicitor-client confi dentiality by which lawyers are bound,” he said. “It shows a grave lack of respect for the criminal justice system, as the solicitor-client privilege l...

Updated: Sunday May 31, 2009 MYT 9:07:10 PM Penanti: Dr Mansor wins with 6,052 votes out of 7,100 BUKIT MERTAJAM: PKR's Dr Mansor Othman has won 6,052 of the 7,100 votes cast in the Penanti by-election. He is trailed by Independents Nai Khan Ari (494), Aminah Abdullah (392) and Kamarul Ramizu Idris (56). Dr Mansor is likely to be sworn in as the next Deputy Chief Minister 1 on Wednesday. Polling ended at Penanti on Sunday with a low turnout of 46.1% or 7,100 voters despite fair weather. Penanti has 15,384 registered voters. Results are expected to be announced by 8.30pm. Election Chairman Tan Sri Abdul Aziz Mohd Yusof said he was disappointed by the low turnout. “We do not why but we will study the reasons for it,” he said, adding that he had expected a 70% turnout. The usual buzz and excitement that surrounds by-elections was missing this time as Barisan Nasional had declined to contest. The Election Commission had strictly enforced the no "pondok panas" rule within 50m ...
