The Knight's Templar

A look into the Knight's Templar and terrorism which is not caused by Islamic terrorist



This proves one thing to the west,

Muslim does not equal a terrorist.

Remember that.

Our World cup dreams crushed but we have a bright future.

Yesterday we, as a nation has the biggest Football match in our recent years or in more accurate terms to say it, the most looked forward to match for Malaysia for the past one or two decades.

And you know what, We, Malaysia lost the match.

We were riding high after winning Gold medal in the SEA Games and winning the Tiger AFC tournament

Technically we didn't lost the match last night, it was a draw, 1-1

But we did loss the first leg, 5-3

Even though our team lost I have never been more prouder for the Malaysia team, like ever. They fought valiantly for the past two competitions and manage to get the whole country to come back and support them, Pasukan Harimau Malaya has done its country proud.

Props to Singapore for making it a derby worth watching. (Since we had a long history with Singapore, pre Independence and post independence)

Yeah, practically most of the Malaysian (including me) would say that the Singaporean footballers are not made up of Singaporeans who were born and raised in the country but we should always be graceful in defeat and let them know the next time we meet, its the Tiger's turn to trounce the Lion!!

Beneath are the news links for the match yesterday

Just for the fun of it, here's for me the player of match for both matches

Arguably the best striker in Malaysia and one of the best in South east Asia, Safee Sali

Ouch...

I read an article from BBC saying this lady cut off her estranged husbands penis...

on top of that, she threw the severe penis in a disposal

A freaking disposal!!!

This how the lady looks like

Dick killer

Husband:  Hei, wife whats for dinner?

Wife:  Hmm.. how bout your blended dick?

Husband:  Okay:)

Hit man retires

Another athlete retiring... actually the word retired is more suitable

Ricky 'Hit Man' Hatton retires after being knocked out by Manny 'Pac-Man' Pacquiao 18 months ago.

I think the Pac-Man didn't just knock some sense into the Hit Man, he took the dudes balls away.

In a BBC article Hatton describe himself as 'hitting rock bottom and it almost drove me insane' This was after we all found out he used cocaine and blah blah blah the rest is history.

The bottom line is that I don't want to mack around with someone like Manny if one KO punch practically took me not only the hospital but to rehab.

Daaammmnnnn, Manny what did they feed you?

Oh well, enough about that horrible KO, back to the issue at hand. Mr. Hatton.

Truthfully speaking, Ricky was one of my favorite fighters (when he is fit) because he didn't just hit strong but he hit SCARY!! He only lost two of his fights (the aforementioned Pacquiao fight and Mayweather Jr.) Both can be considered the best fighters of this generation. No shame in that.

Toast to a you, Mr. Hatton for giving us great fights to watch and all the best with your future endeavours

Some of his career highlights

 I've gotta put this in, his rude awakening by Pac-Man

Things that happen which does not involve Bersih 2.0

Local news has been covering the Bersih 2.0 rally since before it started, during and after. I kinda sick of it. You know the news is just a bout Bersih and stuff.

 Don't get me wrong I'm into all this political stuff but we need to brighten up our day with news that really don't matter but we still read it because its just freakishly fun:)

Here's my news of the week which don't matter to you but you will still read it.. (I guess)

1. Finally the Beckhams has a lil princesss. Yes her name is Harper Seven.. Where's six?

2. Alonso won the British Grand Prix :)

3.Nate Marquardt next fight is on the 13 july.. This is not a cage fight but a court fight:)

4. China don't watch Transformers 3... Thank the lord.. Hei you Chinese people in china, you are not missing anything. Just the Rosie chicks ass...

5. Cool marvel desktop customization found on how to geek

6. There's this shit about some phone-hacking scandal. What did they steal? Underwear pics?

Bollocks

Guess what is bollocks now days

FIFA

FIFA is bollocks. They are full of it and wouldn't shut up it.

Oii Sepp Blatter you think we not know you? You think we fans not know what you made of (Jello to be exact)

This is what I believe about FIFA. The whole organization is rigged. From its beloved president down to its regional president.

I don't know how do they run the football issues but I think UEFA has more influence then FIFA in the game of football ( or soccer for you American chaps)

All this bloody scandal and politicking makes me sick.

What has happen to the most beloved game in the world? The game that is suppose to be uniting people of different culture, religion and race? Has it been reduce to just another political game, a political calculation? Has turn into a cash cow machine?

I understand football is a multi billion business with all the sponsors and telly rights and money is important in fooball but this shit is just to much. Bribing, accusation and all. I don't really care who is at fault but the fact is the governing football body itself is not united to make the game better. They are probably more united in getting more money for their own pockets.

For the good of the game?

Hacked

My Blog was hacked by someone who accuses me of stealing from another site or blog. I never steal another persons post or anything. If I took another post I would always state the post was from this site or from this news and so on

So....

If I stole from you, hacker then I'm sorry but if your hacking is just so to annoy me then kudos then I don't give a rats ass about you.

BTW all my pictures are from Google image... If i'm stealing the image, so too Google.

In Defense for Hammers

The form of the team for the last 8 games in the Premier League

Wigan (A) 3- 2 (L)
Blackburn (H) 1 - 1 (D)
Man City (A) 2 - 1 (L)
Chelsea (A) 3 - 0 (L)
Aston Villa (H) 1 - 2 (L)
Bolton (A) 3 - 0  (L)
Man. Utd (H) 2 - 4 (L)
Tottenhem (A) 0 - 0 (D)

2 points out of the possible 24 points in the last eight games

This is the continuation of my analysis of West ham united relegation from the premier league this season. Now lets us take a look at their defense

List of Defenders (Players)

Winston Reid
Danny Gabbidon
James Tomskins
Matthew Upson
Manuel Da Costa
Herita Illunga
Wayne Bridge(Loan From Man City)
Lars Jacobsen
Tal Ben Haim (Loan From Portsmouth)
Jordan Spnece
Jonathan Spector

As you can see, not much quality around the backline. The Goalkeeper has a shoe string for nerves what more the defense. Matthew Upson is just like Robert Green, Ever inconsistent and surely unreliable at times. Did the world cup effected the both of them that bad? what is worst that Upson is the captain of the squad. I have no qualms on that he may have tried his hardest and best to win but I think when a captain plays badly for at least half a season he has to be replace. Who you might add? How bout the PFA player of the year, Scott parker.

Danny Gabbidon is busy chatting up his twitter rather than focusing on the matters on field. I read lately that he was pissed about some twits fans posted and directed to him because he missed out a freaking comma. Chill out bro, there are worst things in life than fans hating you because you twitted with a missing comma. Whats worst you ask? try getting relegated and got bitched about it.Try that Gabby.

Tomskins and Reid are young and mistakes are to come so not much to say about their performances but hopefully they can improve a little bit faster so that the team can get back up to the league without any much delay. I believe these two would be the ideal center backs for the upcoming coca-cola championship because of their youthfulness and hunger. Besides that, we need a new back line after the old guards severely let us down.

Da Costa and Bridge has been inconsistent at times but they fare better than Upson I believe. They were more consistent and less mistakes but of the two, this season Da Costa had a better season. Bridge did not meet my expectation maybe because of the off field antics which still haunts him or the injuries has finally caught up with him. I remember (During his time in Southampton) him as an excellent defender, cross provider and dead ball specialist. Non of these attributes was really on show this season.

Surprisingly Lars Jacobsen had a solid season in right back. One of the the better players when he played. He is not really the premiership standard maybe a role team player but tells you the depth of the West Ham squad. Very shallow. He did well when he played. Not particularly outstanding just a solid right back.

Illunga, Spector, Spence and Ben Haim are just squad players I believe. No impact just costly mistakes from the likes of Ben Haim. Illunga played early on but seems like the manager preferred Bridge than him. Spence had a terrible game against Wigan but he is still young and if he learns to put where the past is suppose to be and move forward and improve in every game he has a future in the team. Spector played many different positions, he is the jack of all trades but a not very good one though. Versatile but not the classiest defender in the team.

Hammers got Hammered again. But we will be back

Many people often ask me why do I support West Ham United from the likes of Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Man United or even Spurs. I normal teams that people from this part of the world would support. I usually answer them because of the club history I support the club.

Yes, the history of West Ham United (Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters was an integral part of the 1966 England World Cup winning side) enthralls me so much when I was 13 (2001) years old that I decided to support the team through thick and thin. As they got relegated I have stuck with them by constantly keeping myself updated with the latest musings of West Ham United in the coca-cola championship.

When the Hammers return to the top flight I was ecstatic. The club did not only play and win but they played with a certain flair and heart with the likes of Yossi Benayoun and as the seasons passed we acquired World class player like Carlos Tevez.

This season was different. From the start, I felt that the club made the wrong decision to bring in Avram Grant. Yes he brought Portsmouth to the F.A. Cup finals but they still got relegated. The players weren't much into games with the exception of Scott Parker.There are so many things that went wrong this season and I will try my best to cover it starting with the Goalkeeper.

Goalkeeper
Robert Green (1st Choice)
Peter Kurucz
Marek Stech
Ruud Boffin

From the list we can see that the goalkeeping department lack depth and experience. Aside Green, the other three goalkeepers are just starting in their footballing careers and the average age between the three young keepers are 22 years old. I am not saying they are bad goalkeepers because they are young (look at Joe Hart, Iker Casillas etc.) but if the manager trust them shouldn't they be in the game since Robert Green has been having a torrid season since the world cup? This have prove something to me that the goalkeepers are not to the standard of the league or the manager doesn't trust them.

Robert Green is terrible this season. There. I have said it. He truly had a disappointing season for somebody fighting for the England No. 1 jersey. Most of the times we was unsure, erratic, nervous every single attribute you don't want a keeper to have he had it. My say is Goodbye Green and buy a new keeper. He has done too much damage already it is better he leaves before it gets worse.

Here are the team Stats for the season in goal

Clean Sheet: 5(tied for the 2 worst record with two other clubs)
Conceded goals: 67 ( third worst in the league)
Goals against average per match: 1.81 ( third worst in the league)
Goal difference: -24 ( The worst in the league)

Statistics are retrieved from statistics of premier league and stats from football365

We are at least in the bottom three for any one of the categories. We have a 56.7% chance the opponent will score first in any match away or home. Compared to one of the relegation candidates Birmingham City who are at 48.6%

With a defensive and Goalkeeping like this there is no wonder we got relegated so easily without any fight. In the coming post I will talk about the defensive frailties of the West Ham United Back line and the shining light that might help them to come back up straight from relegation into the premier league once again.

I'm forever blowing Bubbles!

Mom Injects 8-Year-Old w/ Botox for Beauty Pageants

I find this incredibly disgusting. It is so apparent that the poor little girl don't even know why is she taking the botox. This is what media has made us all to be. People who are just skin deep.

I guess the commercials/ media are saying:

Beauty = Fame = $Money$



She (the little girl) is just another casualty of the worlds sick obsession on looks and money

Looks sometimes does not deceive you

People quite often say that looks can be deceiving but sometimes looks does not deceive you. For instance
What do you think this is? hmm fashion designer? maybe how bout a homosexual? yes... Don't try to cheat la. On the outside you say he is not gay but inside your mind the first thing that comes to your mind is he is gay because the way he dress and his looks. Right?

How I know? because that's what I thought when I saw this picture. This guy was granted asylum in the UK due to the fact that our country does not encourage and support the Gay community. He was afraid for his own safety. You never know he might just walk around and suddenly some stranger would just bash him.

I'm blogging this not to discriminate the Gay community of this country but to remind the general population that there are much more bigger problems in this country then just the rise of the gay community. How bout the issue of rape? or even corruption? or murder? I don't see a problem with people being gay/ homosexual. As long they do not bring problem to society.

Well, this is what I believe. Another reason why I wanted to do this post is that I feel that the picture was cool cause this is proof that looks sometimes does not deceive. There is such thing as the Gay look:)

Chiao

p/s here the link about the homosexuals seeking for asylum

Glee? Ya kinda nice but Cleveland Brown, Now That's Entertainment!

From the header you might have guess it already, Go watch The Cleveland Show! Period


Yeah That's Cleveland. You'll probably remembered him from the Family Guy. The Depress Black neighbor with the overweight son. Well he got his own show now. It's GOOD!! If you like black humor like me.. hehehe.. or any kind of humor to be exact.

It's your quintessential family cartoon like the Simpson's and Family Guy except these dude be representing the Black's yo (It is my fail attempt to sound like an African American, so please forgive me)

Here, Cleveland divorced and he lost the house but has the custody for his kid, Cleveland Jr. He then bla bla bla bla... Yeah I don't wanna spoil the show for you. So better find a way to watch the show All I can say is he got remarried and now he has 2 step kids. Watch out for the younger step kid, he is cracking my bratha (Yes, another attempt of failed humor)

So I suggest you guys, sit back and let the new problem family into your TV screens (and your PC/ laptop screens too)

Enjoy

It's Revival time

The blog has been stagnating for quite some time so it's time to freaking revive it.

I just got back home ( Kuching) from Johor and I was pondering on things to do while i'm in Kuching to make my stay back home worthwhile. So I made a list of things to do while chilling in a prison resort.

The list goes like this

1. Go Sprinting every single day ( at least try to lah)

2. Try to finish reading 4 books which includes to kill a mocking bird, Have a little faith, Rich dad and pride and prejudice. ( Yes, pride and prejudice, Nope i'm not a wussy)

3. Learn to play the piano ( DIY- no money to learn from a teacher) and to improve on my guitar slaying skills :)

4. Cook. You never know it might come in handy. ( Yeah, I suck at cooking)

Yeah that list kinda sums it all that I want to achieve during the hols beside hanging out with my family and friends.

I'm gonna try to post up my sprinting sessions. Something I got from Men's Health November edition. Lets just call it Experiment Trying to get fit 1#

Yup... It's all system go!!

Ai or Air???

Was reading bout the coming by-elections especially the one in my home state, Sarawak. The seat was vacated by the late Dublin Unting.. The issue for me it's not who gonna get the seat but how the name of the placed is pronounce..

Ai or Air??

The name of the place is Batang Ai which is near Lubok Antu.. It's a beautiful place cause it is near the river.. Believe it or not, in the freaking middle of the freaking Sarawakian Jungle there is a Hilton resort!!! Not only that, there's a Dam near by too..

I have never been to the resort personally but heard that it's an awesome place to go if you really want to spend time with that special someone or just to hang out yourself.. Peace, Quiet,Tranquility.. Awesome!!!!

Anyways, Some dude in the newspaper, pronounce Batang Ai as Batang Air... Which is Wrong. I'm here just to make things straight, it's Ai(with an invisoble K at the back) or Air.. Ok guys Ai(invisible K) remember that.. If you pronounce it Air might as well you pronouce it as Batang Air as in Air Air(Udara) Ang mo slang.. hahahaha

Enjoy some of the pictures of Batang Ai

Nie ai aku deh??

Wah...

It's been a while since I've blog..

Well now lets start again...After a long layoff it's time to tell the world what I think once again.. There been a lot of things that has happen since the turn of the new year.

For one was the Gaza strip Inccident..
It is a sad and hurting to know, to watch, to read and to listen to news like this.. Knowing thousnad upon thousand people got killed... I do not care about the reason behind it, all i do care is the lives which were lost during the whole duration of the attack... I'm not condemning anyone.. Both side has their loses and that is the only thing I'm looking at...

New World Order
As the regime or reign or term (as people would like to call it) of George W. Bush Jr ended.. Everybody held their long sigh of relief for just a moment and then went to look forward in the future as the new President of the United States of America was elected. Mr. Barack Obama.. If he was In Malaysia he would probably have Datuk Seri Barack Obama.. hahahaha.. Well, In with the new power when the old has wane and I believe it is a suitable time since the world economy is in recession.. Mr Obama gotta prove that he got the chops to lead the new world order...

Locally...
Local news has never cease to amuse me.. With all its dirty tactics and all.. i don't really remember what was the chain of reactions but... Here's a list of the events that happen( The one's I could remember)
1. Umno Youth tried to deny Karpal Singh entry to Parliment
2. MCA vice sex tape appeared AGAIN!!! titled.. The Vice's of a Vice.. mauahahahah
3.An opposition member of parliment privacy was made public..
4. By the way, Karpal Singh called Umno Youth 'Celaka'.. which lead to him being block..
5. And yeah he said the Umno youth sent him 2 live bullet... hmmm

and many more these are a few things that i can remember... and yes the biggest thing coming up is the UMNO GenElect..

It's quite sad that Malaysian politics are ruled and govern by dirty politics.. One of the worst was when Elizabeth Wong's privacy was breached.. That was deep man.. That's..Speechless..


Rock& Rolla

Show me the Money

I was musing through Wiki the other day i.e Local Heroes Rentap. I stumble onto something that I never even realize that Sarawak has it's own money!! Yes we have our own currency and it's called the Sarawak Dollar..

Yes!!

Sarawak Dollar

Its quite embarrassing for a Sarawakian like me not to know this kind of things so here, in order to help other ignorant Sarawakians to know our beloved states history, I'm gonna post about money. So,lets talk about everybody favourite topic... MONEY

$$KA-CHING$$$


Lets revisit history

Sarawak and most part of Borneo ( I think all) was under the Sultanate of Brunei. The steward or the some sort of Chief minister of Sarawak that time was this guy called Pangeran Indera Mahkota. Sarawak was in the brink of a civil war and was in utter chaos. So, the Sultan of Brunei brought in this dude called Pangeran Muda Hashim. This Pangeran Asked for help from James Brooke and the rest is history.

For 3 generations Sarawak was under the reign of the white rajah's. From James Brooke to Charles Anthoni Brooke and to Charles Vyner Brooke. It was not an easy reign especially after the Japanese occupation. The royal family was in bankruptcy and thats why they gave the Kingdom of Sarawak to the British government.

Alright, we roughly know what happen so, here's a question..
What currency did my Grandpa use during the Brooke's heyday?
This!!!
That's One Sarawakian dollar... Cool eh..If you realize there are some Jawi inscription and also some Chinese characters. Probably it's there to help the Malay and Arab traders as well as the Chinese traders.

The dollar was used from 1858 to 1953. It was subdivided to 100 cents. During that time

One Sarawak dollar = One Straits dollar

Straits dollar is the currency Malaya and Singapore uses during the British occupation.

The interesting thing bout Sarawak dollar are the coins. Have you ever heard of 1/4 of a cent or 2 1/2 of a cent!! What the!!

Customer: How Much is for 5 sweets?

Shopkeeper: That would be 2 1/2 cent please...

Customer: Here you go.. 2 1/2 cents!!!

The coins are valued from 1/4 cent, 1/2 cent, 1 cent, 2 1/2 cent, 5 cent, 10cent, 20 cent and 50 cent. The coins which are valued above 5 or equivalent are contained precious metal. Precious metal can range from gold to silver or bronze. The coins carry the names and the portrait of each Rajah of its time.

The first banknotes were first issued by the Sarawak Government Treasury . It ranges from 5 cent to $100. after 1922 anything higher than $50 is considered rare. I cant find old Sarawak coin pictures. Maybe next time when I' back i'll take some shots of it. That's if i can find them.

Aram Ngirup Kitai..

Time to change...

Have not been posting anything for the past 2 weeks... Its not that I have no time just that theres no Internet!!!..

But I got 2 new upcoming new post ideas in store.. So just wait.*hint* It's going to be about my hometown and its past... *Hmm I wonder...

If you guys realize, I change my blog skin to something more simple because the last template kinda old and boring..This is just for the time being until I find another template/skin I like..

By the way black look so cool!!!

Kudos Amundos my brethren..

Prepare or get trouble

Preparation is such an underrated word...

Nobody likes to prepare especially for classes, exams etc. I myself feel the burden of preparation.

BUT.....

Something struck me like lighting...


That even for the things of God we need to prepare especially when we are inviting him to House.The house here I'm talking about the Church. I f we want his presence's so badly we need to prepare.This is where we sometimes lack. Preparation before the service.

Normally when we prepare for a church service ( my thoughts) will be that we are preparing for the people who are coming for church instead of preparing for God. We are all made in his image rite? Just as we humans like being invited to parties, house warming etc God love it also. It will be embarrassing if we do not clean up the place when we invited people to the house rite..

When we are inviting the Holy Spirit to come we got to prepare everything from the welcoming, to the praise and worship to the offering, to the word and the fellowship.We must constantly remember that we are not only serving the people but also God.

When God is truly Happy with the preparation that has been done before hand his presence will be felt tangibly. That is where I believe a lot of Christians lack, the preparation ( Includes myself) We go service without preparing ourselves for the word and that's why we fell asleep during sermon... (Oops!!) We fail to listen to the song and remember the chords to the song..

We fail to bring the presence of God..

But Hei, like I said earlier if preparation is done completely, throughly things will definitely go different..For sure.

There a lot of things I try to convey but I just cant seem to find the words..

* Lost for words with all to Say....*
