Ladies pls beware

by Lena Teoh

Ladies pls beware - this happened to me at 10.30am this morning. Coming out of the Jln Duta round about going towards Jln Kuching, a motorbike hit the front of my car from the left. As I was driving very slow, almost stationary the impact was almost nothing but still the motorcyclist fell down and grabbed his leg like he'd been hit and injured, which was impossible because he hardly touched my car! After parking at the side of the road I (yes stupidly) got out of my car to see if he was alright. He then started yelling at me about all the damage I had done to his bike even though there was no proof of even a scratch on my car or of any debris on the ground. He straight away said I have to give him RM300. I had already RM50 on standby to give him in exchange for a peaceful outcome even though it wasn't my fault in the first place and I knew I was being taken for a ride. He continued to argue with me saying what about his medical bills etc even though he had no injury what-so-ever!! Then another motorcyclist stopped and asked me what happened, I told him and he said "Mam if it wasn't you fault then you don't have to pay him, just leave". And he was right, so I walk towards my car to go. Then this new guy starts following me closely asking me where I live and can he have my phone number. I suddenly feel more threatened by this new guy than the ranting original guy that hit me!! I try to get into my car and he holds open my door trying to stop me from leaving. Thankfully I manage to yank the door shut and drive off! 

Already quite freaked out I hit a traffic jam and am stuck at the PWTC exit when the first guy that hit me comes from behind and parks his bike in front of my car, gets off and starts screaming at me and hitting my car, trying to break my window. I wind down my window slightly and throw some money out to distract him. He hits the back of my car with a huge thick chain as I drive off and I spend the next 5 minutes driving through as many traffic free streets as I can find to escape him. 

Thankfully I am now safe and managed to escape unhurt BUT in hindsight there were many things I did that I shouldn't have done. Firstly TRUST NO ONE! As sad as this is to say, toady I really believed it :( I didn't think clearly enough about what I should do in this situation. So I share this story with you in hope that you will think about what you would do in my situation and hopefully you will be better prepared than I was. Pls drive safely ladies and beware of your surroundings :(

30 hours ago, I escaped from being kidnapped

by Chin Xin-Ci on Tuesday, May 29, 2012 at 12:39am

As I sit here writing this, I am just so grateful to be alive.
To think that 30 hours ago I had a knife to my throat, face to face with
the threat of being kidnapped and raped.

It was a Sunday, at 5.22PM. I was alone, walking towards my boyfriend's
car in level B2 of The Curve, Mutiara Damansara. He was not in town, and I
was running errands with his car. Just as I was putting my shopping bags
in the rear seat, the rear car door was slammed against my back, and a
meat cleaver was pressed against my throat. A man covered my mouth with
his hand, and whispered not to scream. He then shoved me onto the floor of
the backseat of the car and waved the cleaver at me, reminding me not to
scream. He was skinny, wearing a baggy turqoise blue t-shirt, had a thick
moustache and short curly hair, approx 5'8", mid-30s, and of Indian
descent.

At this moment, second man appeared. He was also in his mid-30s. He was
wearing a red t-shirt, had a crewcut, and was of Malay descent. He grabbed
my car keys and demanded for my parking ticket. I couldn't remember where
it was. They shoved me deeper into the car, and the Indian man got into
the back seat with me, while the Malay man got into the driver's seat,
driving us out of the carpark.

I told them they could take everything, just let me go. But at that point
they didn't even ask for money. Instead, the Indian man started to make
sexual advances. Then it hit me. "Oh my God. Oh my God. This is really
happening. I'm being kidnapped.. and I think I know what they want."
From this moment on, there were a few crucial things that happened that I
think is the reason I'm alive today.

1. I managed to get into a position to escape.
  When they got into the car, the Indian man had tried to force my body
down onto the floor. I knew that the moment I'm on the floor, there would
be no chance of escape. So I begged him to let me sit up. I promised him I
wouldn't scream or alert anyone's attention. Thankfully, he trusted me,
and let me sit up, gripping my arm tightly. Then I told him my arm really
hurt and to please not grip it so hard. He loosened his grip.

2. I did not fight for the sake of fighting.
  I was in an enclosed space, with no clear escape route. I would never win
in a fight with these 2 guys, especially when they have sharp weapons. Had
I fought from the get go, I may not have been in a position to escape. I
might've even been knocked out cold, and God only knows where I would be
right now.

3. I was lucky and sneaky.
I knew that the only way to escape, was to jump out of the car, even if it
was moving. They had locked the car doors. So I leaned back, pretended to
scratch my hair, and shakily unlocked the door I was leaning against. I'm
so lucky they did not see or hear this!

4. I went 'crazy' at the right time.
And then I waited. I knew that the car would have to slow down outside the
parking lot, as it exits to merge with the main roads. The moment it
slowed down, I opened the car door and tried to make a run for it. I
failed. I kicked my legs out of the car, but the Indian man had managed to
pull my body back in. From this moment on, everything is a blur. I
remember the Malay driver temporarily stopping the car, leaning over from
the driver's seat and attempting to close the door and pull my legs in. At
that point I remember thinking, "Even if I don't get out now, I need to
keep the door open and my legs out the door. At the very least, it should
cause a scene, and someone would see me. Or, the door might hit another
car and they'll be forced to slow down." So I continued kicking. My right
foot pushed against the wide-open car door to keep it open. I recall
elbowing, struggling, kicking, and even biting. I lost my glasses, and was
struggling blindly for my life. At some point the Malay driver yelled,
"BAGI DIA LEPAS! BAGI DIA LEPAS!" (Let her go! Let her go!) and the Indian
man loosened his grip. I made a jump out of the still-moving car, and ran
for my life.

5. I acted in spite of the fear.
My friends said I was brave. But I didn't feel like it. I was quivering
and shaking in fear. I was so afraid. I thought I was going to die.  I was
weak with fear and deathly afraid. I truly thought "this was it". But I
knew I HAD to move. I had to run. Or there would be a worser fate in store
for me. While I was quaking in fear, I forced myself to look around and
see if there was any way I could escape, or even catch someone's eye.

6. I remembered the people I love.
The only thing that matters when you're faced with potentially horrendous
fate, is the people in your life. When I felt the knife to my neck, the
first thing I thought was , "This cannot be happening. I must be
dreaming." The second? The people that truly matter to me flashed across
my mind. It sounds cliche, but it's true. I thought of my parents. My
brother. Khailee. Esther. More people. That's all I could think of for a
few moments, before I started brainstorming my escape.

I ran towards the Maybank outlet at the Curve. There were plenty of people
milling around. I screamed for help over and over again. I was hysterical.
I grabbed an older Malay man by his shoulders and begged for help before
practically collapsing at his feet.

I will always remember the relief and liberation I felt, running over
Mutiara Damansara's manicured grass and into the crowd.
Today, I found out that the entire ordeal from the moment I left the
parking ticket payment machine, to my escape, happened in about 4 minutes.
To me, it felt like one long nightmare.

We never think its going to happen to us... and then it does. I used to
think that this is something that happens only in the papers and to people
far, far removed from me. But then it did happen to me. I moved to PJ/KL 6
years ago, and I've spent countless mornings, afternoons and nights at The
Curve. When my friends and I were organizing Rock Up! back in 2008, we
were walking around the place at 4AM even. It's been 6 years, and never
once did I feel that I was unsafe at The Curve. Until yesterday.

I feel like moving out of the country ASAP. Getting the hell out of this
state where you hear of a kidnapping or attempted one every month
(remember Nayati?), or a snatch theft every week. And yet I'm fully aware
of the fact that in another country with more lax firearm laws, they
would've been holding a gun to my head, not a cleaver. And that would've
been so, so much worse.

I want to share this story with everyone because cops tell me that they
rarely get to hear it from someone who escapes.

Girls, be so very careful. Be vigilant, and please try not to go anywhere
alone. If you need to walk to the carpark, and you're alone, get a guard
to go with you. I was recently told that it's part of their job
description to assist anyone if needed.

Guys, watch out for your girlfriends, wives, mothers, sisters and friends.
Walk with them, don't take their paranoia or fear lightly. Watch out for
them.

And everyone, just watch out for each other. Take care of each other.
These things really DO happen. As I ran out of the car, so many people
came to help me. Strangers who didn't know who I was, came forward and
offered me tissue paper, water, cellphones, and general comfort.
Malaysians, please care for one another. You already do. Just keep on
caring. Keep watching out for each other. Don't worry about being thought
of as "busy body" or "overreacting". The world can be a cruel place, but
all it takes is for people to care for one another to make all the
difference.

Dangers of heat in cars

HSE ALERT FOR CAR RIDERS

Now this is very interesting! My car's manual says to roll down the windows to let out all the hot air before turning on the A/C. WHY?

No wonder more folks are dying from cancer than ever before. We wonder where this stuff comes from but here is an example that explains a lot of the cancer causing incidents.

Many people are in their cars the first thing in the morning; and the last thing at night, 7 days a week. As I read this, it makes me feel guilty and ill. Please pass this on to as many people as possible. Guess it’s not too late to make some changes.

Car A/C (Air Conditioning) MUST READ!!!

Please do NOT turn on A/C as soon as you enter the car

Open the windows after you enter your car, and then turn ON the AC after a couple of minutes

Here's why: According to research, the car's dashboard, seats, a/c ducts in fact ALL of the plastic objects in your vehicle, emit Benzene, a Cancer causing toxin;A BIGCARCINOGEN. Take the time to observe the smell of heated plastic in your car, when you open it, and BEFORE you start it up.

In addition to causing cancer, Benzene poisons your bones, causes anemia and reduces white blood cells. Prolonged exposure will cause Leukemia and increases the risk of some cancers. It can also cause miscarriages in pregnant females.

Acceptable Benzene level indoors is: 50mg per sq.ft.

A car parked indoors, with windows closed, will contain 400‐800 mg of Benzene.

If parked outdoors, under the sun, at a temperature above 60 degrees F, the Benzene level goes up
to 2000‐4000 mg, 40 times theacceptable level.

People, who get into the car, keeping the windows closed, will inevitably inhale, in quick succession, excessive amounts of the BENZENE toxin.

Benzene is a toxin that affects your kidneys and liver. What's worse, it is extremely difficult for your body to expel this toxic stuff from your body.

So friends, please open the windows and door of your car ‐ give it some time for the interior to air out (dispel the deadly stuff) ‐ before you enter the vehicle.

Thought: 'When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others.'

OFFLINE AND ON - THE SEVEN DEADLY FLIRTS


by Coco Helado

The term "flirting" leaves most of us a bit flustered. We either wish we
were great flirts and regret that we are not, or we distrust the notion
altogether because it smacks of game-playing. We are often confused as
to whether others are flirting with us, or merely being friendly. And
when it comes to flirting online, most of us haven't a clue. To dispel
all of this flirting bewilderment, I have outlined several common
flirtatious types, which I call the Seven Deadly Flirts. Familiarity
with these types helps us understand how best to flirt with others-and
to determine when someone is flirting with us.

1. THE GREEDY FLIRT
The Greedy Flirt is an indiscriminate attention-seeker. At parties she
gratuitously promenades back and forth in a skimpy outfit, or drives up
and down the driveway in her shiny red Lamborghini. Online, she noisily
announces her presence in a chatroom with a cheerful "Hello, Gentlemen!!
HERE I AM!!!" making liberal use of exclamation points and uppercase
lettering. The Greedy Flirt is happiest when all eyes are on her.
Whether she ever follows through is anyone's guess.

2. THE SLOTHFUL FLIRT
The Slothful Flirt conveys sensuality or sexiness with the littlest
effort possible. He is a master of the languid glance, the sensuous
gesture. Online he is adept at the sexual double-entendre, the
provocative "Mmmmmmm! or "Do tell!" The Slothful Flirt doesn't do much
because he doesn't need to; by piquing the curiosity of others, he
inspires them to chase him.

3. THE ENVIOUS FLIRT
The Envious Flirt covets other women's beaus. If another woman will have
a man, she believes, he must be desirable. Online, she tends to do the
searching, and if a man tells her he is currently involved with another
match, it only spurs her on. If you count an Envious Flirt amongst your
friends, better watch your back: she's liable to invite your boyfriend
to her place and encourage him to discuss his relationship problems over
candlelight and a bottle of wine. If you happen to covet an Envious
Flirt, she is easy to ensnare; just get one of your platonic female
friends to pretend she is in love with you. The Envious Flirt is yours.

4. THE LUSTFUL FLIRT
The Lustful Flirt is clearly on the make. Perhaps he approaches you at a
party and sighs, "I bet you look fantastic naked." Or sidles up to you
in a bar and whispers, "I want to get you alone sooooooo bad…." Online,
you have seen his handle, "TIGERNBED" or "OHORNYONE". The Lustful Flirt
is thinking of one thing and one thing alone, and is determined to see
it through immediately. His single-mindedness can be comical, but he
walks a fine line between getting laid and getting arrested.

5. THE VAIN FLIRT
Some animals signal their interest in the opposite sex by preening, and
The Vain Flirt is no different. She flips her hair from side to side, or
curls it around her finger. She touches her face and fusses with her
clothing. Many women unconsciously do some flirtatious grooming, but the
Vain Flirt takes it to an extreme. Online she'll promote her good looks
to the exclusion of almost everything else, describing how she might
dress on her first, second, third, and fourth dates. At a bar, she pulls
out her mirror to reapply her lipstick, accompanied by lip primer, lip
liner, lip gloss, and lip seal. The Vain Flirt is easy to spot, and she
is yours for the price of a few compliments. But once you have her, you
might find her less interested in you than in herself.

6. THE ADULTEROUS FLIRT

The adulterous flirt is a wily creature, but if you are wise to his
tricks you'll spot him with just a little effort. He has a complicated
and important job in another town -managing an oil field, supervising
the construction of an airport so he is only around a couple days a
week. He'd like you to come visit him at work, but unfortunately no
visitors are allowed. Pity, because he is always so happy to see you,
bearing flowers and gifts, and he always seems so frisky. But you can't
reach him at night because he doesn't have a home phone and his cell
always seems to be turned off. He doesn't wear a wedding ring, but the
charade inevitably falls apart. The Adulterous Flirt has a missus, and
one fine day she will hack into his personal email and track you down.

7. THE GLUTTONOUS FLIRT
The Gluttonous Flirt understands that the preparation of good food and
the art of seduction should be practiced in tandem. Accept a dinner
invitation from the Gluttonous Flirt and you're in for a treat.
Unspeakably delicious aromas emanate from her kitchen. As she puts the
finishing touches on a masterfully prepared meal, you are struck by her
poise and sensuality. Once you sit down to eat, the meal becomes a form
of foreplay, a sharing of a sensual language, so that by the time the
dialogue moves from the kitchen into the bedroom the groundwork for love
has been laid. Online you can spot a Gluttonous Flirt by the importance
she places on food and eating out. "An avid and adventurous cook" is
nothing if not euphemism. As you will discover, the Gluttonous Flirt is
great fun in the kitchen… and elsewhere.

Sehebat mana diri kita, sebesar mana rumah kita,setinggi mna pangkat kita,semahal mana pakaian kita, ini lah tempat penghabisan jasad kita & hanya kain kafan yg menemani dan menutupi tubuh kita.Bukan kain sutera atau corak2 yg hebat. Sesungguhnya hanya amalan yg dikira. Semoga kita ditempatkan dgn org2 yang beramal soleh. Amin

Scientific miracles in Quraan by Dr. Tariq


Dr. Tariq Al Suwaidan discovered some verses in the Holy Quran that mention one thing is equal to another, i.e. man is equal to women.

Although this makes sense grammatically, the astonishing fact is that
the number of times the word man appears in the Quran is 24 and the number of times the word woman appears is also 24, therefore not only is this phrase correct in the grammatical sense but also true mathematically (24=24).

Upon further analysis of various other verses, he discovered that this is consistent throughout the whole Quran, where it says one thing is like another.

See below for some astonishing results:-

The word number of times mentioned in Arabic Quran:
* Dunia (one name for life, worldly) 115 * Aakhirat (one name for the life after) 115
* Malaikat (angels) 88 * Shaytan (satan) 88
* Life 145 * Death 145
* Benefit 50 * Corrupt 50
* People 50 * Messengers 50
* Eblees (king of devils) 11 * Seek refuge from eblees 11
* Museebah (calamity) 75 * Thanks 75
* Spending (sadaqah) 73 * Satisfaction 73
* people who are Mislead 17 * Dead people 17
* Muslimeen 41 * Jihad 41
* Gold 8 * Easy life 8
* Magic 60 * Fitnah (dissuasion, misleading) 60
* Zakat (taxes Muslims pay for the poor) 32 * Barakah (increasing or blessings of a wealth) 32
* Mind 49 * Noor (light) 49
* Tongue 25 * Sermon 25
* Desire 8 * Fear 8
* Speaking publicly 18 * Publicising 18
* Hardship 114 * Patience 114
* Muhammad 4 * Sharee’ah (Muhammad's teachings) 4
* Man 24 * Woman 24

And amazingly enough have a look how many times the following words appear:-
* Solat (Prayer ) 5
* Month 12
* Day 365
* sea 32
* Land 13

* Sea + land = 32 + 13 = 45
* % sea = 32/45 * 100 % = 71.11111111
* % land= 13 / 45 * 100 % = 28.88888889
All together equals to = 100.00

Modern Science has only recently proven that the water covers 71.111% of the earth, while the land covers 28.889 %.Is this a coincidence?

Who taught prophet Mohammad (PBUH) all this? Allah, the All Mighty taught him this. As the Quran tells us: (This is) a Book, the Verses whereof are perfected (in every sphere of knowledge, etc.), and then explained in detail from One (Allah), Who is All-Wise and Well-Acquainted (with all things).' (Quran 11:1)

The above is from the the series of the scientific miracles in Quran, by Dr. Tariq Al Suwaidan.

Is Your Computer Male Or Female?

As you are aware, ships have long been characterized as being female.

Recently, a group of computer scientists (all males) announced that computers should also be referred to as being female. Their reasons for drawing this conclusion follow:

Five reasons to believe computers are female:

1. No one but the Creator understands their internal logic.
2. The native language they use to communicate with other computers is incomprehensible to everyone else.
3. The message "Bad command or file name" is about as informative as, "If you don't know why I'm mad at you, then I'm certainly not going to tell you."
4. Even your smallest mistakes are stored in long-term memory for later retrieval.
5. As soon as you make a commitment to one, you find yourself spending half your paycheck on accessories for it.

However, another group of computer scientists (all female) think that computers should be referred to as if they were male.

Five reasons to believe computers are male:

1. They have a lot of data, but are still clueless.
2. They are supposed to help you solve problems, but half the time they are the problem.
3. As soon as you commit to one you realize that, if you had waited a little longer, you could have obtained a better model.
4. In order to get their attention, you have to turn them on.
5. Big power surges knock them out for the rest of the night.
