I Like Grape!!


The nutritional benefits of grapes are similar to those found in other berries. To receive the most nutrients from grapes, it's recommended that the seeds are also consumed. Grapes are very good sources of manganese and are also good sources of thimanin,vitamin B6, riboflavin, vitamin C, and potassium. They are an excellent source of health promoting flavonoids. Usually, the stronger the color of the grape, the higher the concentration of flavonoids. Grape seed extracts are rich in flavonoids known as procyanolic oligomers, and have been widely used in treating varicose veins and other venous disorders. These flavonoids are very powerful antioxidants and have been shown to reverse atherosclerosis. In France grapes and grape products, such as wine, are consumed far more than they are in America. Studies have shown that even though the French eat a diet high in saturated fats and cholesterol they have a lower risk of heat disease than Americans. References

Batik Oh Batik


Malaysian Batik is famous on the east cost of Malaysia (Kelantan, Terengganu and Pahang). Despite of influence of Indonesian batik, Malaysia batik design is actually distinguish from the Indonesian Batik.
Malaysian Batik does resemble the Indonesian Batik in the way of technique or raw material. Malaysian batik is recognizable by it distinguish pattern and vivid colours.
All Malaysian Batik is handmade from scratching, waxing by canting, and coloring using die. The most popular motifs are leaves and flowers. Malaysian batik depicting animals are rare because Islam norms forbid animal images as decoration. However, the butterfly theme is a common exception. The Malaysian batik is also famous for its geometrical designs, such as spirals.
The Malaysian government is now promoting Malaysian Batik through fashion by having local designers to create new fashions, inspired by batik.


Using hand, the batik artisan scratches on a fabric such silk or cotton. The artisan then follows by waxing the scratch using canting. Finally, the fabric is dyed using a brush. Due to the hand drawn design, not many batik patterns are exactly the same.

"Pasor Payang"






Pasar Payang is a must-visit especially for the first-time visitors to this Sea turtle state (Negeri Penyu). The Central Market or Pasar Payang, is located by the Terengganu River.

iPods not just for music anymore!!



If you came home and told your parents that you needed an iPod for your study, you’d probably being pretty suspicious. But this is just the sort of thing that you may be telling in the near future.

Duke University has repurposed music-playing iPods to function in the classroom. Since 2004, all incoming freshmen have received iPods to supplement their course work. This pilot project explores the potential of multimedia devices as educational supports. So far, the project has been well received.

The iPods are used to supplement course material by allowing faculty and students to:

*Post and download lecture notes
*Access course support materials like videos, images and Podcasts
*Record oral exams
*Have an easily portable, accessible, and transferable way to access notes
*Student and teachers alike take training classes that cover both proper use of the device as well as responsible usage of the technology—a key point since critics say that multimedia devices in the classroom create new ways for students to cheat.

Freezing on Exams - 5 Tips

"I freeze up when I write exams! I study hard and think I know my stuff, but I freeze up and get low marks!"
Hundreds of high school students have shared this concern with us over the years When students "freeze," their low grades do not reflect their true potential. Since the first step in beating something is understanding it, we began to ask students why it was so difficult to overcome "freezing."
Here are the procedures for active learning:


1.Study Notes: Spend 10 minutes per subject every night and summarize the day's lessons into study notes. Break the information down into Main Idea, Supporting Details and Sub Details. Make these notes short and in point form, in your own words.

2.Review: 48 hours later, review your study notes. Don't memorize; just make sure you fully understand what they mean and what the information is about. Turn the notes into a story or a complete picture — use visualization if possible.

3.Keep Track: Keep a small student day book so that you can keep track of assignments, tests, homework and personal information. Make your entries in class as you get the assignments or test dates and look at your book every night before beginning your study time.

4.Learn About Yourself : What things distract you? Noise? Movement? Crowds? When you discover what makes it hard for you to pay attention, make sure you change your environment as much as possible. If noise bothers you, don't study with a radio on or at the dining room table. Find a quiet place instead.

5.Set Long-Range Goals: Stop expecting school to entertain you. When you learn to stop blaming school for not meeting all your expectations and learn to keep your eye on your long-range goals and dreams, you will begin to feel more control and power over your life. Forget about blaming others; it's your life! Take the responsibility to get the most out of it.
Enjoy!

Senario the movie 2008



Malaysia's favourite comedic group Senario returns to the big screen two years after 2006's "Senario Pemburu Emas Yamashita". This time, they're back with a new project under the box-office specialist Ahmad Idham.
Best pals Mazlan, Azlee and Wahid move to Kuala Lumpur with hopes of fulfilling their dreams to become the nation's best comedians. As they reached the big city, the road to stardom proves to be more difficult then they thought with obstacles to overcome. Their troubles start when they are apprehended by the police who thought that they are a group of wanted robbers, as they actually do resemble the real robbers. As their audition is nearing, the guys struggle for a way to escape from jail, and be able to take part in their life-changing audition.

Blood Type Diet



The blood type diet is a diet advocated by Peter D'Adamo and outlined in his book Eat Right 4 Your Type. Its basic premise is that ABO blood type is the most important factor in determining a healthy diet. The diet is widely derided by dieticians, physicians, and nutritional scientists as having no scientific basis.
D'Adamo groups those thirteen races together by ABO blood group, each type within this group having unique dietary recommendations:
Blood group O is believed by D'Adamo to be the hunter, the earliest human blood group. The diet recommends that these supposedly muscular, active people eat a meat-rich diet along the lines of the
Paleolithic diet.

Blood group A is called the cultivator by D'Adamo, who believes it to be a more recently evolved blood type, dating back from the dawn of agriculture. The diet recommends that individuals of blood group A eat a diet emphasizing vegetables and free of red meat, a more vegetarian food intake.

Blood group B is, according to D'Adamo, the nomad, associated with a strong immune system and a flexible digestive system. The blood type diet claims that people of blood type B are the only ones who can thrive on dairy products.

Blood group AB, per D'Adamo, the enigma, the most recently evolved type. In terms of dietary needs, his blood type diet treats this group as an intermediate between blood types A and B.

Oh sweety!!!



Can you imagine the taste of mangosteen..? I’m sure most of you would like the taste of this sweet and juicy fruit. The mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) is a tropical evergreen tree, believed to have originated in the Sunda Islands and the Moluccas. The tree grows from 7 to 25 meters tall. The rind (exocarp) of the edible fruit is deep reddish purple when ripe. Botanically an aril, the fragrant edible flesh is sweet and creamy, citrusy with some peach flavor. Mangosteen is closely related to other edible tropical fruits such as button mangosteen and lemondrop mangosteen.

There are many nutrient content and antioxidant strength that in the fruit.Mangosteen is typically advertised and marketed as part of an emerging category of novel
functional foods sometimes called "superfruits"presumed to have a combination of 1) appealing subjective characteristics, such as taste, fragrance and visual qualities, 2) nutrient richness, 3) antioxidant strength and potential impact for lowering risk against human diseases.
When analyzed specifically for its edible
aril, mangosteen meets only the first criterion above, as its overall nutrient profile is absent of important content it contains no pigmentation (correspondingly, no antioxidant phytochemicals in significant concentration) and there is no scientific evidence of aril constituents having any health properties
Should
purée or juice from the arils be infused with exocarp phenolic extracts, mangosteen juice adopts the purple color and astringency of its exocarp pigments. It is usually balanced for taste with sweeteners possibly requiring juices from other fruits.
So enjoy eating this type of fruit on this coming fruit season for the next year..

Broccoli May Help Protect Lungs from Lung Disease


Broccoli may help to safeguard the human lungs to damage caused by chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which kills about 30,000 people in the UK every year. Scientists found that a substance called sulfoprane helps activate the NRF2 gene.

This gene is found in human lung cells and helps protect them from the damage caused by toxins. The main cause of COPD is smoking. Sulfoprane, found in broccoli, not only safeguards the NRF2 gene, but helps damaged cells repair themselves.

Study author Dr Shyam Biswal said: "Future studies should target NRF2 as a novel strategy to increase antioxidant protection in the lungs and test its ability to improve lung function in people with COPD."

Researhers Discover Million-Year-Old Camel Bone


Scientists in Syria have discovered a jaw bone of a camel that dates back one million years. The jaw bone is tiny and belongs to a possibly previously-unknown species of camel. Last year, bones of a giant camel were found.

That mammoth camel combined with the current find of the smaller, much older camel could provide clues into camel evolution. The find was made last month by a team made up of Syrian and Swiss scientists.

Swiss archaeologist Jean-Marie Le Tensorer said: "It is a very important discovery. The camel is very small in comparison with the normal camel. But we have to find more bones, different remains, before we can be sure it is a new species."

10 Ways :Quit Junk food.


Junk food or clean food? Do you know?



I think you do. You realize what’s best for your health. However putting it into practice is often a different story. If you have problems keeping away from junk food, your approach is wrong. Eating junk food is a habit that you can’t quit using willpower.

How do you quit eating junk food? Here are 10 ways.

1. Have a Reason. Why do you want to quit eating junk food?
* Less fat?
* More health?
* Lower cholesterol?
Have a reason to quit. Write it on a piece of paper & look at it every day. This will act as a constant reminder of your goal.

2. Make a Plan. Quitting junk foods means a change of lifestyle:
* What food will you eat?
* What will you cook?
* What will you eat at work?

Make a plan that has everything: diet, grocery list, schedule, …


3. Be Confident.


Don’t believe the hype. Quitting junk food is easy. Your body doesn’t need it. If it could choose, it’d go for clean foods. As long as you’re giving your body what it needs, you’ll be OK. If not: it’s in your head.


4. Take Action.


Don’t sit there waiting. If you want to change your eating habits do something about it.
* Go to the grocery
* Cook your food
* Prepare meals for work

Common sense, but worth repeating. If the fridge is empty or if you don’t take food to work, you’ll end up eating junk food. Be ready, be prepared. Take action.


5. Get into Sports.


Sport is healthy. When you get into sports, you’ll have the tendency to watch your nutrition too. Which sport? Up to you. I recommend Strength Training ;-)


6. Choose your Environment.


Your environment influences your habits. Choose one that helps you achieving your goal.

Remove the junk food from your house, stop buying it, say no to eating at McDonald’s daily. Read your goal. What’s more important for you? Win or lose, your choice.


7. Enjoy Food.


Healthy food is not about eating steamed veggies. Healthy food is tasty, as tasty as junk food once you’ve adapted. The trick is to know how to cook. Cooking is a skill. You can learn it.


8. Eat Junk Food.


You don’t need to ban junk food from your life. As long as you eat healthy 90% of the time you’ll be ok.
The longer you eat healthy, the more you’ll have adverse effects to junk food. Taste adapts. With time you’ll be glad to eat junk food, but you’ll also be glad to go back to clean food.


9. Watch Super Size Me.


You know junk food is unhealthy. But how much? Meet Super Size Me: let’s eat McDonald’s 3 times a day & see what happens.


10. Control Yourself.


Sometimes you’ll be tempted to eat junk food. Control yourself. Think. Why did you quit in the first place. What do you prefer? Eating junk food or achieving your goal? Don’t say you don’t care. You do, I know you do. You know what you should be doing.

Write this next to your goal: “I don’t need junk food“.

Wife: Yes darling I still do, only difference is earlier it was 300ml now it's 1.5 ltr.


4.What's the difference between pleasure and torture?
Pleasure is thinking of you & torture is thinking of you too much.

5.Santa: I'm a proud father. My son is in medical college. Banta: What's he studying?"
Santa: He's not studying, they are studying him!

6.Life is a paradox-what u want ,u don't get(llove), what u get, u don't enjoy(marriage),
what u enjoy is not permanent(girlfriend), what is permanent is boring(wife)

Remember This 21

1.Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

WHY WE SHOULD EXERCISES?????


1) Heart and circulatory system:
Regular exercise makes the heart muscles stronger and more efficient.

The blood vessels dilate during exercise, and so more blood reaches the muscles. It has been found that during vigorous or rapid exercise, the blood circulation in certain muscles and organs increases 25 to 30 times.

2) The respiratory system: Breathing becomes not only more rapid, but also deeper, thus making increased quantities of oxygen available.

3) The digestive system: The secretion of the digestive juices is stimulated by exercise. Thus digestion becomes more efficient.

4) The musculature: Regular exercise strengthens the muscles, promotes their development and increases their efficiency. Stronger muscles lend better support to the joints.

5) The skin: The pores of the skin open up during exercise. The result is a healthier skin, because of more efficient disposal of impurities and dirt.

6) Temperature of the body: The temperature of the body rises during exercise. This promotes the burning up of the toxic substances in the body.

In short, all the systems of the body derive invaluable benefits from exercise. Each one of us should set aside a minimum period of 30 to 40 minutes every day in the morning for exercise.

2.It can be a completely unselfish relationship.
3.The friend relationship is one that needs not the acceptance of another.
4.One need never give up one friend for another.
5.A friend may be chosen at any time of life.

Cute Best Friend Poems .....

You are my best friend,
My very best friend,
You make me happy,
Everyday,
You share your great snacks,
You share your best toys,
So please don't take
My best friend away.

My Best Friend,
Today I found a friend,
Who knew everything I felt.
She knew my every weakness,
And the problems I've been dealt.
She understood my wonders,
And listened to my dreams.
She listened to how I felt about life and love,
And knew what it all means.
Not once did she interrupt me,
Or tell me I was wrong.
She understood what I was going through,
And promised she'd stay long
I reached out to this friend
To show her that i care
To pull her close
and let her know
How much I need her there
I went to hold her hand
To her a bit nearer
And realized that this perfect friend I found
Was nothing but YOU.

Goal, Set, Match

Goal-setting advice collated from reputable websites.
  1. Be specific. What do you want to achieve?"I want to do more exercises" is vague. "I want to do 30 minutes of walking a day" is precise - and measurable.
  2. Go on the record. Writing down your goals helps imprint them on tour brain and shows your commitment to them. Place your list where you can see it as adaily remainder.
  3. Start easy. If your aim is 30 minutes' walking a day, beginning with ten minutes each morning is a realistic and achievable small win. Building the habit every day over two weeks will boost your confidence momentum.
  4. Divide and conquer. Arrange your list into short- and long-term goals, then break them down into steps. Set a completion date for each step.
  5. Tell someone. Sharing your goals with your family or a "goal friend" will help keep you accountable and will ensure you don't lapse.
  6. Reward yourself. Acknowledge your achievement of each step or the goal itself with a special treat.

Study 4 your future

I have read a funny story but it can be as a guide for us as a student.
a story about a student that always lazy to study for her examinations.

A student comes to a young professor's office hours. She glances down the hall, closes his door, kneels pleadingly."I would do anything to pass this exam." She leans closer to him, flips back her hair, gazes into his eyes. "I mean..." she whispers, "...I would do...anything."
The prof returns her gaze. "Anything?"
"Anything."
His voice softens. "Anything??"
"Absolutely anything."
His voice turns to a whisper. "Would you...study? This is the only way how u can pass ur exam with flying colours."

*****wakakakakakah******
