Matthew Reilly

Ever heard of Matthew Reilly? well, for those who googl-ed for him will certainly know he is a writer, an australian writer at that. what makes him apart from other writers is that his book is EXPLOSIVE ACTION PACKED!!! science techno thriller that one can associate with riding a roller coaster with thrills and shrills at every end and corners, if you want an action thriller that can keep you at the edge of your seat when reading, he is the author for you. Frankly speaking, i am a bit astonished that there is not a movie adaption of any books he had written, i mean, this has more action than Bourne series, more fast paced that sometimes it is beyond hollywood material. i mean, this guy's book have everthing, adrenalin, pace, action, gore, blow by blow action scenes that one can associate with michael crichton books. although he was sometimes criticized by some for his book lacking character development, i think this is a good thing as telling about characters in long winded paragraphs slows down paceContest was his first published book, he actually self published the book before publishers do it for him. this is the book that set the pace for which he wrote thrillers, fast-paced, adrenalin pumping, gory details.

Temple is another standalone book that is more darker and sinister than contest which takes place in the jungles of south america, in this book there is some indiana jones feel in which the rich description of the jungles as well as parallel story telling gives readers vivid imagery about the story. hell, i imagine the whole story scene when i read through and it is way better than any movies i watched
This is the first book in the Scarecrow series which readers are introduced to a team of a US Marines sent to Antartica to investigate and protect something important. This is a book totally filled with action from the first word go. suspense from the first page onwards and lots of gun fighting, multinational fights and cover-ups, traitor within the ranks and much more. and all of this happen in the barren land of Antartica. this is action packed as the Marines need not only defend the station against french, british and the traitor within their midst they also need to fight against killer whales and mutated seals

Area 7 is the second book in the Scarecrow series which the Marine Shane "Scarecrow" returns, and all the action got faster with the president life at stake, traitors in the enemy and own ranks, a virus that is racist and to make it more unbelievable, a fight into space and re-entering earth to-fight again.
This is the third book in the Scarecrow series in which the Scarecrow is hunted down along with 14 other men in the world in a bounty hunt. and as expected, more action, split second thinking, blast, damage and of course a twist in the story as well as plans to start global war.

This book is the one that actually introduced me to the works of Matthew Reilly. it has another hero(jack west). this one is also fast paced action thriller with some historical facts jumbled in which provide the story with a new kind of depth as it fuses modern and past together. it features Egypt's pyramids, the capstones atop them, an incoming apocalyptic event, a lost language only a seer can interpret as well as nations fighting each other to get the capstone and in the mess of it all, actions, actions and MORE ACTIONS!!

this is the sequel to the seven ancient wonders in which the events in the first book is just the beginning and another bigger apocalyptic event is coming. Jack West team must locate the 6 sacred stones for they held the key to find the 6 pillars that can activate the Machine which will save humanity from the apocalypse. here, more history about civilisation past is revealed and Reilly did a great job in using them together with modern technologies to make this a fantastic read

As the story in the 6 sacred stones didnt end, it continues into this book which promises more action, more mystery, more twist, more tomb-raider-ish action where jack again goes against all odds to locate the pillars and activating the machine. it also add a few fantasy elements like the tomb of jesus in israel and such. a great read that can keep you at the edge of your seat and glued on for you need to find out more and more and more about what happen next

hell, if any of these books made it into the movies, i will surely watch them(as long as the directors dont cut the movie till the point of disappointment)

ZGMF X20A Strike Freedom

Finally have time to write this post =DDD

bought the MG strike Freedom last 2 weeks ago. my hands are itching for a gunpla model so i went and bought one with my first salary this year.

well, bought it after some consideration and some research on some reviews which can be found here

http://www.collectiondx.com/review/2006/strike_freedom_gundam

and from here

http://ngeekhiong.blogspot.com/2008/02/plamo-review-27-mg-strike-freedom-part.html

actually considered destiny gundam extreme burst mode, but there is a waiting list of 3-4 months. T.T i don't and can't to wait that long.

without further ado, let see my first MG kit, strike freedom

p/s: here are some sites that give good guides on gunpla building

http://plamoaddiction.blogspot.com/2009/06/master-kawaguchi-teaches-how-to-make.html

and http://otakurevolution.com/content/laymans-gunpla-guide

plamoadiction also have some gundam reviews and sinajus.

Tools needed: Cutter, Scissors, penknife, 0.3mm lining pencil, super fine black, blue, red gold marker, nail clippers, and sandpaper(fine)

why nail clippers, you may ask. well it is kinda like a 2 in 1 package, you can cut away nubs leftover from first cutting and you can file it using the nail file and then with sandpaper if it isn't satisfactory. and some cotton sticks(for pressing the dry transfer decals) and a pair of tweezers too.(to hold small parts when sanding and for applying stickers and decals without your fingerprint smudges at the back ruining the sticking)

the box art(like the full blast edition though >.<)

runners about 15++ piece

gold polycaps, talk about bling gundam!

the cockpit can be opened using a "sliding" mechanism but actually just an extension arm only


cool head


inner leg frame, you can choose to paint it with gold colour if you have time and money to do so

completed leg

waist unit
rail cannons

the cheek vents are seperated parts which means you wont need to paint it. save time!

it seems, u need to line nearly everything on the inner frame, cause idk which part will be visible after the outer frame is put on. for gold, you can use black, while for the white, you can use the 0.3mm pencil, which gives you lining and silvery finishes. if you want to create like deeper lining for shadow effect, repeat lining several times on the same area until they are dark greyish silver

IT GLOWS!!!! no la, super strong flash nia..




ah, so pearly white( like white, very pure)
dramatic effect(look at the shadow behind)


nub marks everywhere. T.T
attach the wing to the main body(broke the right wing mechanism, now it abit handicap when opening, cause need to manually flip each wing)

the back, as you can see, magnificent engineering enable the rail cannons to slide to the back and the guns can be stored at the side






argh... if i bought strike freedom full blast mode, i can have dragoons flying around then. ish..
the shoulder dry transfer decals, the right shoulder was a failed first attempt at doing dry decals, manage to salvage abit. the left one is better






double cannon together, interesting piece of engineering, i like it! =D

can even see my double o raiser at the back
the current posing.

overall,the model is very good(thank you beecraft team!!), i make some mistakes which only noobs can make(nub marks here and there) i didnt paint the model though, just apply a gloss coat(actually it is wax, which isn't paint, so it wont corrode the plastics, so if you are not satisfied with the results, take a clean cloth and wipe away the wax coat and reapply again)

if you are interested in gunpla, and looking for an MG to start with, you can consider this.

Rest in Peace

Goh Yi Zhang (1993-2010)



Brendon Yeoh (1993-2010)
Brendon and yi zhang, although you two might have gone, but we still miss you quite a lot, may you rest in peace

LMAO

Hell explained by a chemistry student
A professor asked "Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?"
Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law (gas cools when it expands and heats when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today.

Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, 'It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,' and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct......leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting 'Oh my God.'



The student got an A.

little Billy came home from school to see the family's pet rooster dead in the front yard. Rigor Mortis had set in and it was flat on its back with its legs in the air. When his Dad came home Billy said, "Dad our rooster is dead and his legs are sticking in the air. Why are his legs sticking in the air?"

His father thinking quickly said, "Son, that's so God can reach down from the clouds and lift the rooster straight up to heaven."

"Gee Dad that's great," said little Billy. A few days later, when Dad came home from work, Billy rushed out to meet him yelling, "Dad, Dad we almost lost Mom today!"

"What do you mean?" said Dad.

"Well Dad, I got home from school early today and went up to your bedroom and there was Mom flat on her back with her legs in the air screaming, "Jesus I'm coming, I'm coming" If it hadn't of been for Uncle George holding her down we'd have lost her for sure!"

Little Johnny's parents are at home on a Sunday afternoon. They have a function to go to, and the babysitter is supposed to arrive soon. Both of them are extremely horny, and want to have a quickie. But Johnny is around, so the father decides to get creative.

Father: "Johnny, I want you to do something for me. I need you to stand out on the balcony, and keep an eye on everything that's happening."

Johnny: "Okay, pop!"

The parents sneak into the bedroom, rip off each others clothes, and start doing the dirty.

Johnny: "Mrs. Enkelschnitz just let her dog poop on the neighbour's lawn and didn't pick it up, dad!!!"

Father: (panting) "That's great Johnny!"

Johnny: "Oh, and Mr. Smith, the store owner, he just parked his car beside a fire hydrant!"

Mother: "Keep up the good work Johnny, what else do you see?"

Johnny: "The Johnsons from across the street are having sex"

Mother and Father: "WHAT!!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!? How do you know THAT???"

Johnny: "Because their kid is out on the balcony too."

An engineer, of the BMW Corporation died and went to heaven. At the gates, St. Peter told him, "Since you've been such a good man and your motor vehicles have changed the world, your reward is, you can hang out with anyone you want in Heaven". The Engineer thought about it for a minute and then said, "I want to hang out with God." St.Peter took him to the Throne Room, and introduced him to God. He then asked God,

"Hey, aren't you the inventor of woman?" God said, "Ah, yes." "Well," said the engineer, "professional to professional, you have some major design flaws in your invention:

1. There's too much inconsistency in the front-end protrusion.

2. It chatters constantly at high speeds.

3. Most of the rear ends are too soft and wobble too much.

4. The intake is placed way to close to the exhaust. And finally,

5. The maintenance costs are outrageous."

"Hmmmm, you may have some good points there," replied God," hold on."God went to his Celestial super computer, typed in a few words and waited for the results. The computer printed out a slip of paper and God read it.

"Well, it may be true that my invention is flawed," God said to the engineer, "but according to these numbers, more men are riding my invention than yours."



Four men went golfing together one day; three headed to the first tee and one went into the club house to take care of the bill. The three men started talking, bragging about their sons. The first man told the others, “My son is a home builder and he’s so successful that he gave a friend a new home – for free.”

The second man said, “My son was a car salesman and now he owns a multi-line dealership. He’’s so successful that he gave a friend two Cadillacs.”

The third man, not wanting to be outdone bragged, “My son is a stock broker and he’s doing so well that he gave his friend an entire stock portfolio.”

The fourth man joined them on the tee after a few minutes of taking care of business. The first man mentioned, “We were just talking about our sons. How is yours doing?” The fourth man replied, “Well, my son is gay. I’m not totally thrilled about it, but he must be good. His last three boyfriends gave him a house, two cars, and a stock portfolio.”




A blind man walks into a restaurant and sits down. The waiter, who is
also the owner, walks up to the blind man and hands him a menu. "I'm
sorry, Sir, but I am blind and can't read the menu. Just bring me a
dirty fork from a previous customer, I'll smell it and order from
there." A little confused, the owner walks over to the dirty pile and
picks up a greasy fork. he returns to the blind man's table and hands
it to him. The blind man puts the fork to his nose and takes in a
deep breath.

"Ah, yes, that's what I'll have, meatloaf and mashed potatoes."

Unbelievable, the owner says to himself as he walks towards the
kitchen. The cook happens to be the owner's wife and he tells her
what had just happened. The blind man eats his meal and leaves.

Several days later the blind man returns and the owner mistakingly
brings him a menu again. "Sir, remember me? I'm the blind man." "I'm
sorry, I didn't recognize you. I'll go get you a dirty fork." The
owner again retrieves a dirty fork and brings it to the blind man.
After another deep breath, the blind man says, "That smells great,
I'll take the macaroni and cheese with broccoli." Once again walking
away in disbelief, the owner thinks the blind man is screwing around
with him and tells his wife that the next time the blind man comes in
he's going to test him.The blind man eats and leaves.

He returns the following week, but this time the owner see's him
coming and runs to the kitchen.

He tells his wife, "Mary, rub this fork on your panties before I take
it to the blind man." Mary complies and hands her husband the fork
back. As the blind man walks in and sits down, the owner is ready and
waiting. "Good afternoon sir, this time I remembered you and I already
have the fork ready for you." The blind man puts the fork to his nose,
takes a deep whiff and says, "Hey, I didn't know that Mary worked
here?"

10 Things I Hate About The Road

There are so many things i hate about the roads here, top 10 list out here

1. Road Bumps
yup, friggin road bumps... there are 10 road bumps from the road till my parking lot. 10!!! which about sums up how ccb the people are.. curse you all who propose putting road bumps.. always didnt see one until its too late.. some more they are shittingly tall and we need like less than 10 km/h so as not to damage our car.. went pass one once and knock my radio off

2. Motorcycle Apeks
yup, the "king" of the roads. they own the road that they drive in the middle of the road SLOWLY.
worse still, they drive with their legs opening out like they have BIG LAMPA or they just berkhatan or have vasectomy.. sometimes, they even drive till uai uai till u cant even overtake them

3. Slow Drivers
yup, people who drive so SLOW as in less than 40km/h. these noobs should be banned from roads. they drive so slow as if they have all the time in the world, worse, they drive in the right lane.. the worse case is you met both of these cars and they drive EQUALLY SLOW in both lanes and you still need to follow them from behind

4. people with good sports car or imported cars and still drive SLOW
they have better engines, better aerodynamics and yet they still drive at snails pace. i mean, what for they buy these good cars and still drive so slow like driving a potong.. if they want to drive so slow, they no need buy honda or toyota or bmws, they can always buy kancil.

5. people who drive slowly up the hill
they have auto transmission and they still drive slowly. dont they know that driving slowly uphill consumes more fuel and energy? why cant they accelerate and use the momentum, this saves you milleage...

6. Motorcyclist that drive on the opposite lane
i encounter this everytime i went to INTI. they always drive to your lane and you need to evade them or else there will be a bloddy mess on the ground.

7. people who switch on halogen or high light
these people have NO BRAINS.. they drive towards you, and still switching on their powerful light, without knowing that these momentarily blinds people, these people think they are so yeng with their super powerful lights

8. people who brakes until nearly 0 km/h to cross bumps
these people have bmw and merz and having better absorber system and yet they brake till so slow just to cross a bumper.. these wont rosak your car eh la, if u afraid, dun even drive..

9.Motorcyclist that blocks your road no matter how hard you horned them
these people are DEAF and bloody retards. they block your way, drive slowly, you horned them, they didnt hear and still keep in that way. the government should give us permission to knock these people down if they didnt react.

10. Parents who parked their car on the roadside to and then jump down to pick up their child
these people are more gai, they do not show good examples to their children. they simply park their SUV and those big ass cars on the road, not knowing that this block other road users way.
they then jumped down and disappear for a long time to take their child into the car. a very SLOW PROCESS.. if someone knock down their children in the process, they wail and cry and blame the people around them, not knowing its them who are the one that caused this in the first place..

these are the top 10 things i hate about the road, what about you?
