Impact of Anger.


SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT - AGAIN AND AGAIN.

There was a little boy with a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost temper, to hammer a nail in the back fence.

The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. The it gradually dwindled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive those nails into the fence.

Finally the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day that he was able to hold his temper.

The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.

The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence." You have done well, my son, but look at the holed in the fence. The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out, it won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is stil there."

A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one...and can never be taken back.

Fresh Fish Lesson


The japanese have always loved fresh fish. But the waters close to Japan have not held many fish for decades. So to feed the japanese population, fishing boats got bigger and went farther than ever. The farther the fishermen went, the longer it took to bring in the fish. If the return trip took more than a few days, the fish were not fresh. The Japanese did not like the taste.

To Solve this problem, fishing companies installed freezers on their boats. They would catch the fish and freeze tham at sea. Freezers allowed the boats to go farther and stay longer. However, the Japanese could taste the difference between fresh and frozen and they did not like frozen fish.

The frozen fish brough a lower price. So fishing companies installed fish tanks. They would catch the fish and stuff them in the tanks, fin to fin. After a little thrashing around, the fish stopped moving. They were tired and dull, but alive. Unfortunately, the Japanese could still taste the diffence. Because the fish did not move for days, they lost their fresh-fish taste. The Japanese preferred the lively taste of fresh fish, not sluggish fish.

So how did Japanese fishing companies solve this problem? How do they get fresh-tasting fish to Japan? If you were consulting the fish industry, what would you reecommend?

How Japanese Fish Stay Fresh:

To keep the fish tasting fresh, the Japanese fishing companies still put the fish in the tanks. But now they add a small shark to each tank. The shark eats a few fish, but most of the fish arrive in a very lively state. The fish are challenged.

IMPORTANT LESSON:

Have you realised that some of us are also living in a pond but most of the time tired and dull, so we need a Shank in our life to keep us awake and moving. Basically in our lives Sharks are new challenges to keep us active and taste better.....

The more intelligent, persistent and competent you are, the more you enjoy a challenge. If your challenges are the correct size, and if you are steadily conquering those challenges, you are Conqueror. You think of your challenges and get energized. Yoou are excited to try new solutions. You have fun. You are alive!!!

冷酷无情



看了心寒...这是什么世界?有朋友说...怕被寻仇,不会当场出面帮忙。但是这么多男人在场,如果大家都出手帮忙那几个小妹子能报得了多少仇?做监牢/进感化院都来不及啦!

就算出手不帮忙,也该致电去警察局吧?

就算就算怎样都好,也不应该起哄看热闹吧?助长那三个贱人更大胆,更让受害者更受伤!还看热闹还起哄!没怜悯之心吗?铁石心脏吗?如果受害者是你的亲人你会是什么感受?现在的人是什么人?都应经“进化”成没有感情的畜牲吗?

围观者的无情和讥讽,受害者承受的伤害是一生都无法磨灭的痛。盼望它能重新振作过完余生

The Mummy 3: Tomb Of The Dragon Emperor (English)


Synopsis:

Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) is joined in this all-new adventure by son Alex (newcomer Luke Ford), wife Evelyn (Maria Bello) and her brother, Jonathan (John Hannah) to combat the resurrected Qin Emperor (Jet Li) in an epic that races from the catacombs of ancient China high into the frigid Himalayas. This time, the O'Connells must stop a mummy awoken from a 2,000-year-old curse that threatens to plunge the world into his merciless, unending service.


"The Mummy" returns to the big screen promising more action than ever before - but wait! It wasn't up to expectations actually. Yes, admittedly the trio of Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser), wife Evelyn (this time played by Maria Bello) and bro-in-law Jonathan Carnahan (John Hannah) have stunned me with their spontaneous and believable character play.

Of course it's no surprise to see the fine character delivery from Fraser and Hannah as they have dwelled in the roles since the previous films. Surprisingly, Mario Bello also fits the role as Evelyn, Rick's wife. Being new to the franchise, she fits herself so well into the Evelyn mould that we tend to forget that it used to be Rachel Weisz in that role. Bello made Evelyn hers.

Nonetheless, it was the supporting roles that disappoint me the most. The now grown-up son Alex (played by newcomer Luke Ford), fails to add anything to the established set. It feels as if the O'Connells could do without him! His bulky figure and so-called playboy pick-up lines don't fit the bill. Unlike Rick, the son is more of a college charmer than a young adventurer. The rest, like Zi Juan (Michelle Yeoh), Lin (Isabella Leong) and General Yang (Anthony Wong) look steady. However the worst performance here should go to martial arts master Jet Li, who looks too awkward as the Mummy. Something just doesn't seem right - him playing Emperor Han, then frozen up, only to return in the form of a Mummy!

Storywise, there's nothing extraordinary to be expected from this Mummy. The special effects are rather realistic and they are up to the current standards of technology I guess, whereas shots and angles are nicely done to give a more adventurous feel to the quest in the movie. Also, I thought the music score was superb.

Still, Rob Cohen didn't really impress me with his visualisation and presentation of this movie. Little impact could be felt when leaving the cinema hall. I would say it's a disappointment but I guess this will pass as some mindless entertainment for all until the next Mummy...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just bk from Cheras Selatan Jusco.This movie is not as what i aspect. It more likely a comedy movie more than an adventurous movie.

Star Ratings:
Overall 3 stars
Cast 3 stars
Plot 2.5 stars
