I realized that I have put too much information on the internet. So I am trying to turn off my public profile lest some crazy jealous stalkers come near me. I have disabled a few web applications that link all my blogs together as I don’t need such publicity to show my blogs anymore. I can get traffic from good honest readers who come and go and not bitch about it elsewhere. I have also put down my nice personal photos which are from now onwards for own viewing only. Notice that I no longer blog what I eat or stay anymore, so you don’t have to compete with me. I have my own set of problems to take care of to ever bother about such things anymore. I also did not renew a personal domain that I have maintained for a few years as it is not generating high enough income to warrant continuity.

20th Century Fox presents this family comedy following a star hockey player’s (Dwayne Johnson) temporary transformation into a full-fledged tooth fairy as penalty for discouraging a young fan. Director Michael Lembeck (The Santa Clause 2 and 3) helms the family comedy, based on a screenplay by veteran comedic writers Lowell Ganz and Babaloo Mandel, with additional writing provided by Joshua Sternin and Jeffrey Ventimilia. Ashley Judd and Julie Andrews co-star in the Blumhouse and Mayhem Pictures production.

Dwayne Johnson is “The Tooth Fairy,” also known as Derek Thompson, a hard-charging hockey player whose nickname comes from his habit of separating opposing players from their bicuspids. When Derek discourages a youngster’s dreams, he’s sentenced to one week’s hard labor as a real tooth fairy, complete with the requisite tutu, wings and magic wand. At first, Derek “can’t handle the tooth”—bumbling and stumbling as he tries to furtively wing his way through strangers’ homes… doing what tooth fairies do. But as Derek slowly adapts to his new position, he begins to rediscover his own forgotten dreams.

I have been napping a lot lately and it feels so good. No kids to attend to, no classes to wait for at least an hour and just pure enjoyment of napping under the comforters in an air con room. Since I work from a home office, I can afford to take naps in between when I need to rest my eyes from the glare of the computer monitor. I can also hide myself in my room from pesky parents. No need to hear complaints of in-law problems that has happened so many years ago and my paternal grandma has already passed away in 2007. It is time to move on for a better life with the renewal of the mind each day. And I am going back to nap again after blogging this post. Ta!

The Spy Next Door is a martial arts action comedy film starring Jackie Chan, Billy Ray Cyrus, George Lopez, and Magnus Scheving. Filming started in late October in New Mexico and was finished in late December 2008. The movie was released on January 15, 2010. The movie starts off with a montage of fights and stunts from Chan’s older movies including The Tuxedo and Operation Condor and then cuts to Bob Ho (Chan) waking up. The next shot features his next-door neighbors waking up, with Gillian (Amber Valletta) and her three children, Nora (youngest one and very girlish; played by Alina Foley), Ian (’geeky’ and intelligent, played by Will Shadley) and Farren (stereotypical teenager and the oldest, played by Madeline Carroll) all experiencing a normal morning. The family has three pets which consists of a pig, turtle and a cat.

Gillian strolls outside with her children to take the two older kids to school and Bob Ho, who supposedly works as a pen importer, spots her and helps her push down the trash can to the sidewalk. The two are shown to be romantic and the three kids are shown to be against it, due to them thinking he is nerdy and uninteresting. Later at night, Bob and Gillian are on a date celebrating their three month anniversary and although Bob tries to tell her that he’s a CIA agent, but his cellphone receives a message and he has to leave right away.

Bob and Colton James (Billy Ray Cyrus) sneak into an American oil refinery and Bob catches the villains, who were trying to put a liquid into the oil supply. After returning to his work station, he informs he is retiring from being a CIA agent to finally settle down and live with his soon to be family. Bob begins removing his spy gear, but Glaze (George Lopez) tells him to keep his watch. Later, through the phone, Colton informs Bob that he sent files found in the Russian base to his computer.

The three run home as the enemies run into the house from the windows and doors. Bob calls the CIA for help while he fights off all the villains, with help from the children. The CIA and Colton arrive right after everyone is defeated already and Ian gives his iPod with the files to Colton. After they all leave, Bob prepares to go home but after the children grow very upset, Gillian decides to stay with Bob. The two are later shown being married and Bob tells Gillian during the wedding that he has another secret to inform her; his real name is not Bob.

DID YOU KNOW THESE FACTS? I SURE DIDN’T TILL NOW

Death is certain but the Bible speaks about untimely death!
Make a personal reflection about this….. Very interesting, read until the end……
It is written in the Bible (Galatians 6:7): ‘Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man sow, that shall he also reap’.

Here are some men and women who mocked God :

Some years before, during his interview with an American Magazine, he said:
‘Christianity will end, it will disappear. I do not have to argue about that. I am certain..
Jesus was ok, but his subjects were too simple, today we are more famous than Him’ (1966).
Lennon, after saying that the Beatles were more famous than Jesus Christ, was shot six times.

During the Presidential campaign, he said if he got 500,000 votes from his party, not even God would remove him from Presidency. Sure he got the votes, but he got sick a day before being made President, then he died.

During A show in Canecio ( Rio de Janeiro ), while smoking his cigarette, he puffed out some smoke into the air and said:’God, that’s for you..’ He died at the age of 32 of LUNG CANCER in a horrible manner.

After the construction of Titanic, a reporter asked him how safe the Titanic would be.
With an ironic tone he said: ‘Not even God can sink it’. The result: I think you all know what happened to the Titanic

She was visited by Billy Graham during a presentation of a show. He said the Spirit of God had sent him to preach to her. After hearing what the Preacher had to say, she said: ‘I don’t need your Jesus’. A week later, she was found dead in her apartment.

The ex-vocalist of the AC/DC. On one of his 1979 songs he sang: ‘Don’t stop me; I’m going down all the way, down the highway to hell’. On the 19th of February 1980, Bon Scott was found dead, he had been choked by his own vomit.

In Campinas , Brazil a group of friends, drunk, went to pick up a friend…..The mother accompanied her to the car and was so worried about the drunkenness of her friends and she said to the daughter holding her hand, who was already seated in the car: ‘My Daughter, Go With God And May He Protect You.’ She responded: ‘Only If He (God) Travels In The Trunk, Cause Inside Here…..It’s Already Full ‘ Hours later, news came by that they had been involved in a fatal accident, everyone had died, the car could not be ecognized what type of car it had been, but surprisingly, the trunk was intact. The police said there was no way the trunk could have remained intact. To their surprise, inside the trunk was a crate of eggs, none was broken.

said the Bible (Word of God) was the worst book ever written. In June 2006 she was found burnt beyond recognition in her motor vehicle. Many more important people have forgotten that there is no other name that was given so much authority as the name of Jesus. Many have died, but only Jesus died and rose again, and he is still alive. ‘Jesus’

PS: If it was a joke, you would have sent it to everyone. So are you going to have courage to send this?.
I have done my part, Jesus said ‘If you are embarrassed about me, I will also be embarrassed about you before my father.’

‘Lord, I love you and I need you, come into my heart, and bless me, my family, my home, and my friends, in Jesus’ name. Amen.’

Charlie (John Travolta) and Dan (Robin Williams) are best friends and co-workers. Seven years prior to the present time of the movie, Dan was once married and when he divorced he was very depressed. In order to cheer Dan up, Charlie takes him on a wild vacation where Dan meets a woman named Vicki (Kelly Preston) who he thinks is his soul mate. Along with Vicki is her equally beautiful but weird best friend Jenna (Rita Wilson) who is overly obsessed with her hands because she is a hand model. Dan and Vicki marry the same night they meet but their love affair is short lived. Seven years later, Vicki arrives back in town and announces to Dan that they have twins: Zach (Connor Rayburn) and Emily (Ella Bleu Travolta) together.

Dan offers to take care of the children the same day he meets them after Vicki has to go to jail for two weeks due to an activist crime. Originally, the kids were going to stay with Jenna but Dan severely injures her by mistake so she ends up in the hospital, nearly immobile and unable to watch the kids. Because Dan’s condo does not allow children, he has to board with Charlie. Whilst this is happening, Charlie and Dan are about to score their greatest gig in the history of their careers with a Japanese corporation. At first, Charlie doesn’t want Dan hanging around the children, but later warms up to the idea. Dan does not know how to interract with his kids, and at night he resignedly groans to Charlie, “I just shook my daughter’s hand goodnight”. At camp, the four turn a three day trip into a nine hour one after the kids unwittingly convinced the instructors (Matt Dillon) that Dan and Charlie are homosexual partners. Charlie is harassed by the instructor’s psychotic brother (Justin Long), and by the end of the day, Dan ends up destroying a statue of the founder of the camp.

The morning they arrive back home, the kids spill Dan and Charlie’s pills and clumsily put them back in the wrong bottles, believing they remember where they belong.. This causes side effects for the both of them, with Dan not being able to speak and having odd sight perception during a golfing game with Craig and the possible Japanese co-workers, and Charlie’s face freezing in a smile along with a neverending appetite while he is trying to woo the attractive American-Japanese translator Amanda (Lori Loughlin) at her grandmother’s funeral, which results in him grinning as Amanda is grieving and crying along with eating grandmother’s last famous rhubarb pie which she made within the last hours of her life.

Avatar is a 2009 American science fiction epic film written and directed by James Cameron and starring Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Michelle Rodriguez and Stephen Lang. The film is set in the year 2154 on Pandora, a moon in the Alpha Centauri star system. Humans are engaged in mining Pandora’s reserves of a precious mineral, while the Na’vi—a race of indigenous humanoids—resist the colonists’ expansion, which threatens the continued existence of the Na’vi and the Pandoran ecosystem. The film’s title refers to the genetically engineered bodies used by the film’s characters to interact with the Na’vi.

Put simply, Avatar is the most visually fantastic film I’ve ever seen. It will be hailed as the groundbreaking 3D release of its time while setting a new standard by which all blockbusters are measured. Yes, it’s that good. I viewed the film in a full-sized IMAX theater. And while I knew that a fair share of missiles would fly off the screen (and ZOMG the mechs look amazing), I couldn’t have expected the sheer tangibility that 3D—what I once supposed a gimmick—added to the experience. I mean, I saw textures in this film that I’ve never seen in a movie before, like wet, rubbery skin on the wildcats of Pandora that made people around me gasp more than once. There’s a more understated moment, too, when Sam Worthington shaves and you realize, wow, stubble is pretty remarkable in 3D. The jagged hairs bring a level of humanity to his character, adding something unexpectedly corporeal to what’s really a 30-foot-tall head in closeup.

So yes, 3D is more than a gimmick. The glasses are still a pain, but 3D is here to stay.

The film was released in traditional 2-D, as well as 3-D and IMAX 3D formats. Avatar is officially budgeted at $237 million; other estimates put the cost at $280–310 million to produce and $150 million for marketing. The film is being touted as a breakthrough in terms of filmmaking technology, for its development of 3D viewing and stereoscopic filmmaking with cameras that were specially designed for the film’s production.

Opening to critical acclaim and commercial success, it grossed $27 million on its opening day and $77 million in the United States and Canada on its opening weekend. Worldwide, Avatar grossed $232 million on its opening weekend. Within three weeks of its release, with a worldwide gross of over $1 billion, the film became the second highest-grossing film of all time worldwide.

Penang’s current chief minister, Lim Guan Eng, came to my church to reassure us of the safety of the churches in Penang following the attacks in 4 churches in KL over the “Allah” issue. He came for the 9:00 am service and read out the sermon on the Mount and 1 Corinthians 13 on Love. It was recorded on video and when I came for the 11:00 am service, it was shown to us. He also went to The Cathedral of the Holy Spirit to reassure the parishers there and then went off to another church in Prai, Butterworth. Today’s message on Love and Forgiveness wasn’t co-incidental. It was divinely planned and we all had a good time hearing Pastor Yeoh Guan Hock preach and sing. With such care and immediate response shown by the Penang Government, I hope Lim Guan Eng will continue to helm the Penang Government in the next general election.

I am working for a small but dynamic company. We operate like Air Asia where everything is very affordable but selling in bulk. Likewise, we make our prices affordable but working hard every day. Most of our workers are working daily even on Sundays and taking daily wages. Everyone does their part to contribute to the growth of the company. And today, I have 3-4 quotations to type out and to calculate before emailing them out. Sometimes I am amazed at so many enquiries we get each day via the internet. Therefore I badly need a vacation like riviera maya honeymoon and travel with someone special for a good break from all the work stress and demands. And I can sleep long hours under a thick comforter with the air-con turned on for many days to recuperate. I don’t need any of the holiday activities but just to lie in bed and re-energise and to relax after long hours of work all this while. My idea of a good vacation is to forget about work, lie in bed and dream about the good life and retirement with money to last a life time. Now, I cannot afford to retire as I need to save up more for that retirement one day. Then I can sit back and look back at all the years of working life to achieve this moment.
