After 8 years in power, President George Bush’s 2 terms are coming to an end on the 20th January 2009 where he will be succeeded by Barack Obama. So while he is still in office, enjoy the photo blog that speaks for itself. Have a good laugh, have a good day! And I will be in KL this evening for business, most likely to reach there after 10:00pm if we set off by 5:00pm today.

Digital photos frames save you space from buying physical frames to be used on the table or cabinet. All you need to do is just turn on your computer, and view your images that are frames in digital photo frames for a complete look and for your photo album. They promise to last a lifetime, will not fade over time and can be view over and over again. This reminds me to go for some Christmas shopping but on a smaller scale. It is a time to remember Jesus who came as a baby in a manger two thousand years ago to save mankind from eternal sin. This is a time to share the good news to everyone so that they can have Jesus as their personal Lord and Saviour.

There is also free search engine marketing provided besides designing a web site that loads quickly. Although now I still take up freelance web designing, but the job is more scarce since a lot of people know HTML and adding images using Frontpage. They can do it by themselves without seeking help from freelancers like me. Hence, my work nowadays revolves around writing articles and updating my blog posts plus working for my boss in a home office to save costs and transport.

I don’t have the time unlike some blogger housewife to update my blogs every day as I still have to work in the home office attending to quotations, drawings with Autocad, etc. Hence the USD549.71 earned within a month calculates to exactly RM2,000 at 3.64 exchange rate. If only I can earn RM2,000 part time every month from the internet, it will be a bonus for me.

He walks. He runs. And perhaps most importantly, he inspires us all to dream. Meet ASIMO - the dancing, talking, batik-painting and futsal-playing robot created by Honda’s Research & Development Wako Fundamental Technical Research Centre in Tokyo, Japan. ASIMO is the acronym for Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility and was born on 31st October 2000. The first time he came to Malaysia was in 2003 and recently was spotted in Queensbay Mall recently in 2008 to thrill thousands of spectators especially children.

Meet ASIMO, Honda’s humanoid robot who charmed thousands during a roadshow at a shopping mall in Bayan Baru, Penang over the weekend. When he came on stage, the 1.3m and 54kg ASIMO greeted the audience and proceeded to introduce himself. After that, he drew gasps of awe and loud clappings as he demonstrated his abilities.

“I can run like you too! Wanna see?” he teased. After counting down from three to one and Go, Asimo started running on stage, drawing loud cheers from the crowd.

He then proceeded to dance and ask the crowd, “Why don’t you dance with me today?” Children eagerly put up their hands to dance with the cute and cheeky robot. After dancing, Asimo showed off a recently acquired skill - batik painting.

For his final act, Asimo demonstrated his futsal skills by kicking a ball on stage. Then, playing the role of a courteous waiter, he served drinks to some lucky people in the audience. According to Wikipedia, there are 46 Asimo units in existence as of 2007. Each cost less than RM3.8 million to manufacture and some units are available to be hired out for about RM630,000 per year.

This was a chance in a lifetime and I was glad to be at the right time to witness Asimo in the shopping mall over the weekend. It is better than taking photos so many Christmas trees around December and makes an exciting post to my blog. Though I was in KL recently, I did not go to Sunway Pyramid as I grew blase to it with all the Christmas decos. But some suaku blogger love to be there to capture photos for her blog like it was something new.

Photo showing all the dancers from the various countries like UK, Russia, Spain, China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Thailand, Indonesia, our very own Malaysia plus many other countries participating in this year’s dance sport. After the competition, all the dancers and judges were treated to a free support at the ground floor when the spectators sart to leave.

On the 22nd of November, last Saturday, I went to see 15th Penang International Dance Sport ampionship held in PISA (Penang International Sports Arena) in Relau. This time Astro came to record the dance event and we were told not to capture any dance, but I secretly taped this just like many other spectators who came with their cameras ready. As usual, the dance was spectacular with many hours of practise I am sure. They were executed perfectly or rather I could not tell a perfect one from a not so perfect dance but there were more than 20 judges who adjudicated the event. There were waltz, romantic samba, quick jive and even belly dance for the first time.

The tickets this year round was buy one get one free. The dance sport did not start at 6:30pm as scheduled due to a massive traffic jam in Penang bridge due to an accident. It only began at 7:30pm, an hour later. I was late as well, and did not have to wait too long. China seems to have caught up with international dance level as many couples from China clinched first and second places. The costumes were superb too, some very sexy but one of the couples from China who eventually got third place got their featured costumes dropping blue white feathers all over the floor. This year, they took precaution of mopping the floor every few dances so that it is not slippery from perspiration and dancers won’t fall off embarassingly, unlike last year.
