the god-name copyright issue is getting ridiculously draggy. a non-issue overpoliticized for theater with extras armed with molotov mocktails (lawak). third side of the coin this; here's a re-post of an article on Malaysia-Today.net; re-posting an insight by Marina Mahathir; of an article by Dr.Muqtedar Khan.
Confident people do not get confused
lay off the batu and get a real job remps.

Of Pride, Prejudice...and Romanticized Ideals
what's below is a promo video for the Charter For Compassion, founded by Karen Armstrong.
cool name for an org. no? (they've also got something called the Council of Conscience, pretty rad names these bunch)
the Charter is a noble and ideals-based movement that calls for a replenished form of thinking/living amongst men.(very United Colors of Benetton). i'll leave you to watch. for me, i have my pinch of doubt/ i do feel it's a little bit of a far cry for an ideal world, for the human race, as of now. but we all need dreams and tomorrows and their vision is of the positive (and seemingly achievable at times).
but most importantly, do double click and watch the vid on youtube. then read the discussion on the comment box below. open your mind, plant some seeds.
E.G -
"I don't think there's any intrinsic problem with prejudice. I think the real problem, or challenge, lies where there's blindness, or denial, of our tendency to prejudice. If we avoid seeing that we are prejudiced, we are controlled by it. If we accept the existence of prejudice, or any kind of "bad human treat", as an inevitable fact of what is right now, we don't have to be slaves for it - we can observe and learn. Maybe not outgrow, but learn to function with it."
E.G II -
"Many congregations don't want to be compassionate, they want to be right."

"as long as it doesn’t spill over into something serious, they can still express their views," najib said.
Hishammuddin had also stated yesterday that the government did not prohibit the people from expressing their views on the Allah issue but action will be taken if the protests affected security.

Steve Jobs: Life
was never a fan of having someone/something/doctrines telling me/anyone how to live life correct. a few authors and figures aside, i think most that do preach about living are just so forcefully righteous(me right! you wrong!...me tarzan! you jane! heh). no offense to any one/institution/religious beliefs that is. but i think we all find our own sense of faith and meaning along the journey.
having said that, the coolest(and arguably richest) geek in the world (stephen hawking doesnt count. cool factor a little slack la), talks about his journey. pretty cool i thought. =) casual wisdom.

This Is Not Hiphop (and why the jonas boys ought to be shot)
to each his own, but i really do think the yodeling jonas triplets make the best disposable bubblegum poop for 12 year olds and/or younger (closest mtv rivals, alvin and the chipmunks). anyway. was hungry for some alternative rock, found these not so new/not so old stuff. surprised none of it reached our airwaves. but then again, that's expected. bubblegum poop.
Cage The Elephant. take some time to check their other stuff, pretty fly. Fall Out Boy x A rapping Mick Jagger-like.
Phoenix - childhood band yang berjaya from versailles, france. from the alb '"Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix"
Them Crooked Vultures - John Paul Jones, Josh Homme, Dave Grohl. that hype aside, music is true blue rock & roll. flash em' devil horns, scare your neighbour ;)
Seven Collar T-Shirt. if you've explored 'Freeway, Dreaming & Broke' & 'Drones', you'd really appreciate how these boys evolved. brilliant. and finally, a music video. (its a shame Lyme and D.D.A didnt make it. would've been grand).
