Yoong Hero, oops, I mean Young Hero :D

Saw this on TV yesterday. Text modified from The Star:

Aaliyah Yoong Hanifah weighs only 28kg weigh and 1.24m tall... She is the youngest gold medalist in SEA Games since its inception in 1959. And, oh, she's only 8-year-and-4-month-old when she won the gold for WOMEN Waterski Tricks Event. (Bold and EMPHASIS is mine) ;)

The Yoong family certainly breeding heroes. :D So, congratulation to our young hero.;) Read her resume here (updated as of 31st July 2011).

It seems that former F1 driver Alex Yoong and Philipa Yoong both won golds as well. Also congratulations for the not-so-young heroes. :) [Source]

Real Man Has Beard - Duh! :D

Beauty is in the Eye of Beholder

Promised to write a post about beauty but never got quality time to draft. (Alasan!) ;) Presenting you this video, old news but always refreshing to watch.

Interesting news excerpt: "By Douglas Wight, 10/05/2009
SUSAN Boyle turned down the chance of a dream dinner date with President Barack Obama in Washington . . . to stay at home and wash her hair, we can reveal." Read more [here].

Beauty is everywhere. You only have to look for it. Cheers! ;)

Banker & Duck Tales

Spotted this on TV3 today. Have fun watching. ;)

Not a Perakian but...

Watched NTV7 7PM news the other day about Courtroom bickering regarding who the "real" Perak's Menteri Besar should be. NTV news gave these two lists (provided by the respective counsel) for comparison:

NTV7: On why DS Nizar should be MB?

1. DUN not yet dissolved.
2. He has not resigned yet.
3. No vote of "unconfidence" made towards him.

NTV7: On why DDr Zambry should be MB?

1. Forgotten. Too long to be committed into my poor memory...
2. Forgotten. Too long to be committed into my poor memory...
3. Forgotten. Too long to be committed into my poor memory...

Basically, what NTV7 news tried to explain, I think, was (from various other sources):

1. PR had 28 ADUNs, BN had 28 ADUNs, the 3 Bebas were “partiless” BN supporters.
2. DS Nizar didn't gain the confidence of the majority, because [repeat no. 1].
3. The Sultan "expected" DS Nizar to resign, because [repeat no. 2].
4. The Sultan had chosen another to be MB, so [repeat no. 3].
5. It was considered disloyalty not to resign because [repeat no. 4].

Why can't NTV7 make simple person like me to understand? :D Ah, perhaps I'm plain stupid, not to mention demented! Of course, how could I NOT realize that?! ;)

BTW, where's the “Against the Constitution” part? *blur* :S Ah, perhaps it was hidden in the “forgotten” part...

Probably unrelated news:
Perak’s day of infamy and bedlam
Nizar claim today's sitting 'null and void'
What does the standoff in Perak mean?

[UPDATED May 11, 2009] High Court ruled DS Nizar was real MB but DDr Zambry could appeal.

[UPDATED May 12, 2009] DDr Zambry succeeded in appealing for a stay on the High Court rule in his favour. So DS Nizar may become unreal MB?
