Punctured By High-Energy Objects, No Emergency Calls And More From MH17 Preliminary Report

The Dutch Safety Board Has Published The Preliminary Report For The MH17 Incident On 9 September 2014

Image via astroawani.com

The Malaysia Airlines flight went down over war-torn eastern Ukraine on July 17 while en route from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur. All 298 people on board the Boeing 777 were killed, including 193 Dutch citizens.

        dw.de

At the time of the incident, the Malaysia Airlines plane was flying at approximately 33,000 feet (10,000 meters), above the restricted airspace zone, according to investigators. The cockpit voice recorder "ended abruptly" and no distress signal was sent.

        dw.de

According To The Report, The Boeing 777-200 Broke Up In The Air Probably As A Result Of Structural Damage Caused By A Large Number Of High-Energy Objects That Penetrated The Aircraft From Outside

Image via rappler.com

Flight MH17 operated by Malaysia Airlines broke up in the air probably as the result of structural damage caused by a large number of high-energy objects that penetrated the aircraft from outside, according to the preliminary report by the Dutch Safety Board.

        ria.ru

“The available images show that the pieces of wreckage were pierced in numerous places. The pattern of damage to the aircraft fuselage and the cockpit is consistent with that which may be expected from a large number of high-energy objects that penetrated the aircraft from outside,” the report reads.

        ria.ru

"Damage observed on the forward fuselage and cockpit section of the aircraft appears to indicate that there were impacts from a large number of high-energy objects from outside the aircraft," the report said. Examination of "photographs from the wreckage indicated that the material around the holes was deformed in a manner consistent with being punctured by high-energy objects."

        dw.de

There Are No Indications That The MH17 Crash Was Caused By Technical Fault Or By Action Of The Crew

“It’s likely that this damage resulted in a loss of structural integrity of the aircraft, leading to an in-flight break up,” experts said. “There are no indications that the MH17 crash was caused by a technical fault or by actions of the crew.”

        ria.ru

Cockpit Voice Recorder, Flight Data Recorder And Data From Air Traffic Control Show That The Flight Proceeded Normally With No Emergency Calls

Image via dw.de

The cockpit voice recorder, the flight data recorder and data from air traffic control all suggest that flight MH17 proceeded as normal until 13:20:03 (UTC), after which it ended abruptly. A full listening of the communications among the crew members in the cockpit recorded on the cockpit voice recorder revealed no signs of any technical faults or an emergency situation.

        astroawani.com

Neither were any warning tones heard in the cockpit that might have pointed to technical problems. The flight data recorder registered no aircraft system warnings, and aircraft engine parameters were consistent with normal operation during the flight.

        astroawani.com

The radio communications with Ukrainian air traffic control confirm that no emergency call was made by the cockpit crew. The final calls by Ukrainian air traffic control made between 13.20:00 and 13.22:02 (UTC) remained unanswered.

        astroawani.com

The Plane Was Airworthy And There Were No Known Technical Problems As It Was Manned By A Qualified And Experienced Crew

The pattern of wreckage on the ground suggests that the aircraft split into pieces during flight (an in-flight break up). Based on the available maintenance history the airplane was airworthy when it took off from Amsterdam and there were no known technical problems. The aircraft was manned by a qualified and experienced crew.

        astroawani.com

An In-Flight Break Up Would Best Explain The Flight's Abrupt Disappearance From Radars And Loss Of Contact

Image via neurope.eu

This also explains the abrupt end to the data registration on the recorders, the simultaneous loss of contact with air traffic control and the aircraft's disappearance from radar.

        astroawani.com

However, Additional Reports Are Needed To Explain The Sequence Of Events As More Evidence May Appear

Image via globalnews.ca

“More research will be necessary to determine more precisely what caused the crash and how the airplane disintegrated. The Board believes that additional evidence will become available in the period ahead. From this point on, the research team will start working towards producing the definitive investigation report. The Board aims to publish the report within one year of the date of the crash,” the Dutch Safety Board said in a statement.

        ria.ru

“The preliminary report issues the first findings in a ongoing investigation. From this point on, the investigation team will be working towards producing its final report. The Board aims to publish this report within one year of the date of the crash.”

        astroawani.com

The Preliminary Reports Have Been Sent To Other Countries That Are Involved In The Investigation, Involving Malaysia

The Board also said that the preliminary reports were sent to the other countries involved in the investigation, including Malaysia, Ukraine, Russia, the United Kingdom, the United States and Australia and their reactions to the report have been received. “All Accredited Representatives have sent a reaction. The Dutch Safety Board assessed the provided suggestions and amended the report where appropriate,” the report says.

[SHARE] 7 Sebab Kenapa 95% Orang GAGAL Laksanakan Azam Tahun Baru

Tak lama lagi, kita akan melangkah ke tahun baru. Seperti biasa, semakin hampir dengan tahun baru, semakin ramai orang yang mula senaraikan azam tahun baru mereka. Contohnya seperti dalam gambar di bawah ini:

Image via linkedin.com

Sangat cliche kan? Tapi macam mana dengan azam tahun ini? Dah selesai ke belum? Seperti kebanyakan orang, mana-mana azam tahun ini yang masih belum selesai pastinya akan dibawa ke tahun hadapan. Perasan tak?

Image via katmichels.com

Persoalannya, kenapa azam tahun baru bagi 95% orang di dunia hanya sekadar satu senarai yang tidak bermakna? Berikut adalah sebab-sebabnya:

1. Kita membuat terlalu banyak azam pada satu-satu masa

Image via tumblr.com

Dalam hal ini, memang tak boleh salahkan sesiapa. Semangat berkobar-kobar dalam diri ketika senaraikan azam tahun baru menyebabkan kita menulis terlalu banyak azam, yang mana kadang-kadang agak mustahil untuk dicapai.Maklumlah, semua orang pun nak jadi lebih baik kan? Cuma kadang-kadang kita terlepas pandang kepada keupayaan kita untuk melakukan segala yang disenaraikan.

2. Kita hanya sekadar menulis tetapi tidak bekerja keras untuk benar-benar mencapainya

Image via tinypic.com

Berhenti merokok? Mula bersenam? Makan secara sihat? Lebih keseimbangan dalam hidup? Secara dasar, azam-azam ini bunyinya memang bagus. Tetapi adakah kita benar-benar mahukan kesemuanya? Atau sekadar menulisnya bagi memenuhi segenap ruang yang ada pada permukaan kertas?

3. Kita tidak mulakannya dengan segera, sebaliknya berlengah-lengah

Image via wordpress.com

Selepas senarai dah lengkap, kalau boleh kita taknaklah terus jump atau mulakannya serta-merta. Sebaliknya, kita biarkan masa menentukan sama ada kita bersedia atau tidak. Selalunya, kita akan tunggu the perfect moment untuk memulakan sesuatu. Betul tak?Dan akhirnya, sampai ke sudah masa itu tidak muncul. Kita pun mula menyalahkan keadaan sekeliling atau masa kerana tidak mengizinkan kita untuk melakukan perkara-perkara yang sepatutnya kita lakukan.

4. Kita terikut-ikut. Apa yang orang lain senaraikan, itu juga yang kita nak.

Image via tumblr.com

Ini antara perkara yang paling biasa terjadi. Orang lain nak kahwin, kita pun nak kahwin. Orang lain nak beli kereta baru, kita pun nak beli kereta baru. Orang lain nak kumpul RM20 ribu setahun, kita pun nak kumpul RM20 ribu setahun. Kita terlalu sibukkan perihal orang lain sehingga perihal sendiri tidak terjaga.Ya, mungkin bagus jika kita ikut jejak langkah rakan-rakan kita yang mahu menyimpan lebih banyak wang demi masa hadapan. Tetapi lihat semula dan tanyakan pada diri sendiri adakah jumlah yang disasarkan itu realistik dan boleh dicapai.

5. Kita tidak bersedia untuk gagal ketika cuba untuk mencapainya

Image via tumblr.com

Antara persoalan yang selalu bermain di fikiran sebelum kita mula melakukan sesuatu ialah, "Macam mana kalau aku gagal? Apa yang patut aku buat selepas itu?".Takut pada kegagalan itu memang lumrah manusia yang tak dapat kita elakkan. Selagi minda kita terperangkap dengan persoalan sebegini, selagi itulah kita akan rasa takut untuk mencuba sesuatu kerana kita tidak bersedia untuk gagal. Dan akhirnya, kita tetap akan gagal kerana langsung tidak mencuba.Jadi dari sini, mungkin sesetengah kita merasakan, "Kalau aku buat pun aku gagal, lebih baik aku tak payah buat terus. Sama je."

6. Kita berhenti sebelum sampai ke garisan penamat

Image via tumblr.com

Berbeza pula untuk hal ini. Kita dah cuba tetapi berhenti di pertengahan jalan. Kenapa agaknya? Adakah kerana ia membosankan? Adakah kerana kita berputus asa? Mungkin juga.Ia bergantung kepada tahap ketahanan seseorang sebenarnya. Mungkin kita dah cuba sedaya upaya tetapi masih tidak membuahkan hasil. Mungkin juga kita berhenti percaya bahawa kita mampu melakukannya selepas beberapa percubaaan yang gagal.  Oleh itu, kita membuat keputusan untuk berhenti di tengah jalan. Rugi kan?

7. Kita tidak ada motivasi atau komitmen

Image via tumblr.com

Kita selalu ada azam yang tidak membawa apa-apa makna dan cuba menjadikannya satu kenyataan. Masalahnya, azam yang kekurangan asas makna dan kaitan peribadi inilah yang akan menghabiskan tenaga kita.Pada awalnya, pasti kita ada sedikit motivasi yang membawa kita untuk memulakan sesuatu. Namun begitu, motivasi itu tidak pernah kekal. Apa yang kita perlukan sebenarnya ialah sesuatu yang lebih asas, lebih utama dan lebih penting kepada kita. Itulah satu-satunya cara untuk mendapatkan booster yang akan menolak kita ke hadapan.

Bila fikir balik, betul juga apa yang dua ekor kucing ini katakan. Tak gitu?

Image via ggpht.com

Jadi, adakah perlu untuk seseorang mempunyai azam tahun baru? Ia semua bergantung kepada diri kita sendiri. Sama ada kita mahu mencapainya atau tidak, segalanya terletak dalam genggaman tangan kita. Apa-apa pun, selamat maju jaya!

Syed Saddiq Rejected Oxford For The Second Time To Stay In Muar

Muar's Member of Parliament (MP) Syed Saddiq Abdul Rahman announced his decision to reject another offer from Oxford University in a Facebook post last night, 12 June

Syed Saddiq also posted a screenshot of his offer letter from Chevening to continue his studies in Oxford University.
Image via Syed Saddiq/Facebook

Syed Saddiq wrote that he will be turning down a conditional Chevening scholarship to do his Master's in Public Policy at Oxford University. "For the second time, I'm forced to reject the offer because I have been given the trust and responsibility by Muar voters to bring their voices to Parliament," he wrote."In fact, I believe my job is far bigger than that — to reform and serve the people of Malaysia," the Muar MP added, before stressing that he wants to ensure Malaysian youths will always have a strong voice in the Parliament.

Chevening is a British international awards programme aimed at developing leaders around the world

Image via Techjuice

Chevening, which is funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) together with partner organisations, offers two types of award: Chevening Scholarships and Chevening Fellowships.According to its website, recipients of Chevening awards are personally selected by British Embassies and High Commissions globally.

It was painful for Syed Saddiq to explain his decision to his parents, who wanted him to continue his studies in Oxford University

Image via Free Malaysia Today

"I understand that as parents, they want to see their child excel in academia," he wrote.Syed Saddiq also said it would be unlikely for him to get a third offer from Oxford University, since it was his second time rejecting an offer from the institution.However, he was inspired by the people who had contributed to the Tabung Harapan, and those who provided suggestions or plans that are critical to rebuilding the nation."The little things make the biggest different, you're all my inspiration," he wrote."I have to put this dream of mine behind (me). To me, rebuilding the nation is more important," the Muar MP added.

RM200M UFO-Looking Superyacht Arrives In Perlis & Everyone's Wondering Who It Belongs To

Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Telegram for the latest stories and breaking news.

The sighting of a 'spaceship-looking' superyacht at the mouth of the Perlis River, Kuala Perlis has caught the attention of fishermen and villagers, making them wonder who it belongs to

According to Berita Harian, the yacht was seen entering the river near the Kuala Perlis Ferry Terminal at about 12pm last Saturday, 13 August.The Adastra superyacht reportedly cost around USD45 million (over RM200 million) and was believed to have travelled from Langkawi to the area for repair works at a nearby shipyard.Perlis Fishermen's Association (PELARIS) board member Jasmi Hashim said his party was informed by fishermen and residents in the area about the presence and movement of the luxury yacht, adding that no complaints were received from the passage."In fact, we also understand that the luxury yacht was actually moving to the Perlis Marine Engineering (PME) Sdn Bhd dock located in Kampung Tengah Kuala Perlis for repair works," he said.Meanwhile, the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) confirmed that the marine office in Perlis granted the yacht permission to dock at PME.

Videos of the yacht sighting went viral on social media over the weekend, with many netizens highlighting the contrast of the ultra-luxury vessel with the rustic boats at the fishermen's village

Speaking to reporters, 53-year-old Mat Che Ya said he has seen many medium-sized ships pass through the estuary, but sophisticated luxury yachts are rarely seen in the area."Many ships have passed through here, but they are not that big. Yachts like the one yesterday (13 August) are rarely seen here," the fisherman told Berita Harian."So when the yacht cruised through here, it looked like a spaceship on the water because it didn't look like a ship or boat that we usually see."

Image via Sinar Harian

Image via Berita Harian (YouTube)

The fisherman's observation is true. The Adastra yacht is known for its striking spaceship profile around the world.

In fact, the name of the vessel, Adastra, is a Latin phrase for "to the stars".The 52.5-foot vessel is a trimaran-type superyacht built by McConaghy Boats. A trimaran is a multi-hull boat that comprises a main hull and two smaller outrigger hulls, which are attached to the main hull with lateral beams.According to US luxury-lifestyle magazine Robb Report, the boat's top speed is 23 knots and can get into shallow areas that traditional yachts cannot.The yacht is designed to accommodate nine guests and up to six crew members. It features a spacious aft deck with lounges and an al fresco dining area. Guests can relax on the foredeck in the main salon that comes with large sunbeds. Additionally, the yacht's garage door folds out to create a diving platform.

#RANDOMWEDNESDAY: This Is The Most Bizarre Support Group In UK

WATCH: This guy talks about his experience of being abducted by aliens in a purple cloak

      Unsupported video platform

Video highlights: 53-year-old Parkes says he has fathered 10 alien creatures

When 53-year-old Parkes isn’t fixing potholes in his town of Whitby, he’s hanging out with reptilian creatures and making love to an extra-terrestrial “lion queen.” His interview with the group chronicles his complete interaction with alien creatures.

        deathandtaxesmag.com

His "daddy", a "mantis" like alien, inhabited his mind when he was six-years-old and taught him how to have sex with a holographic woman.

        mashable.com

The mother-ship of the mantis is giant and looks like a hammerhead shark. He has fathered 10 lion creatures, male and female. One of the female offspring is named Zarka, but he doesn't know all the children's names.

At the end of the helpline Ammach co-founders Joanne Summerscales and Miles Johnston offer emotional support to traumatised “abducted” people.

        mirror.co.uk

"A.M.M.A.C.H. is essentially a resource, a point of contact for those who have had such experiences, and have nowhere to go with them. Many contact A.M.M.A.C.H. because they feel isolated or ostracized by their community or family and friends."

        mashable.com

Joanne said: “Many people experience ridicule, vilification, isolation besides what they’re going through. We offer non-judgmental interviews and an opportunity to talk about it.”

        mirror.co.uk

AMMACH receives approximately five calls and 25 emails a week

Zoe's story continues to inspire young girls to keep their heads up even when the world is against them

The 17-year-old made headlines in January when she was mocked for referring to Charles & Keith as a luxury brand after she was gifted with the label's bag by her father.Through her strength and positive spirit, she kept her chin up while receiving negative comments and still expressed gratitude to her father and how he had raised her."To you, an SGD80 (RM266) bag may not be a luxury, [but] for me and my family it is a lot. And I was so grateful that my dad was able to get me one," she said in a TikTok video.Since then, Charles & Keith has shown appreciation for her and her father by inviting them for a special tour at their headquarters.Watch Zoe's tearful video here:

"Cars Over Five Years Old Are Not Roadworthy." How Old Is Your Car?

The 12-Year Lifespan Cap Will Not Be Imposed, Says Government

Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Abdul Aziz Kaprawi said the federal government has no plans to go ahead with the proposal.

        msn.com

"I want to stress we have no plans to impose a lifespan on cars for disposal purposes and we do not want to burden the public," the Deputy Transport Minister said.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

Deputy Transport Minister Datuk Abdul Aziz Kaprawi suggested that the proposal was only a study and that there was never a definitive proposal to implement the cap, saying Putrajaya was aware of its impact on consumers and the automotive industry.

        themalaymailonline.com

The proposal has come under fire from Sim and his colleague Rafizi Ramli who had charged that it was Putrajaya's way of collecting more revenue through the GST that would take off in April 2015.

Not Everyone Can Afford To Replace 12-Year-Old Cars, Says Hishammuddin Hussein

The Transport Ministry is still studying if 12-year-old cars should be taken off roads as they are deemed unsafe.

        nst.com.my

A comprehensive study on economic and social impact is needed before banning vehicles aged more than 12 years from plying on roads, said Acting Transport Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Tun Hussein.

        themalaymailonline.com

He said the study would also look into those who might be affected by the vehicle life span rule if it were to be implemented.

        theborneopost.com

"We need to study cost of living and financial predicament faced by motorists before implementing such rule. Let's not be hasty in making the decision," he told reporters.

In February this year, the Malaysia Automotive Institute proposed that vehicles older than 10 years should not be on the road if Putrajaya decided to go ahead with the full vehicle end-of-life policy. Consumer association Fomca had objected to the earlier proposal and suggested that cars more than 15 years old should be subject to a roadworthiness test.

These Photos From the MIROS Crash Test Will Make You Think Again Before Driving a 23-Year-Old Proton Saga

MIROS conducted a frontal collision test on an old Proton Saga model at its Provisional Crash Safety Engineering Unit (Crase) Crash Centre or PC3 in Malacca on Friday.

        cbt.com.my

The Proton Saga sedan manufactured in 1990 crashed on the driver's side into the stationary aluminium honeycomb at approximately 64 km/h upon impact with three dummies inside the vehicle.

According To MIROS, Studies Show Vehicles Over Five Years Old Are Not Suitable To Be Put On The Road Again

According To MIROS, Studies Show Vehicles Over Five Years Old Are Not Suitable To Be Put On The Road Again
Image via miros.gov.my

The Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) director-general Professor Dr. Wong Shaw Voon said, studies show that half of the vehicles over five years old have failed the Puspakom roadworthiness tests.
In other words, these cars are not suitable to be put on the road again.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

MIROS D-G Says Car Manufacturers Design Vehicles For A Specific Life Span

Wong told Sin Chew Daily car manufacturers normally design the vehicles for a specific length of life span. Vehicles that are driven frequently on the road without regular replacement of faulty parts actually only have five years of life span.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

"Vehicles for normal driving and with regular maintenance can last for eight years. If an owner has taken very good care of his or her vehicle, then it can last up to 12 years."

        mysinchew.com

MIROS D-G Says Car Manufacturers Design Vehicles For A Specific Life Span

However, he said vehicles older than this can still run on the road, but their fuel economy and efficiency would be drastically compromised, with increasingly higher chances of breakdowns and the owners will need to fork out more money and time to fix their vehicles.

It Is The Same Reason Why Car Warranties Only Lasts Three To Five Years

It Is The Same Reason Why Car Warranty Only Lasts Three To Five Years

He said this is why many car manufacturers have offered only three to five years of warranty, adding that compulsory inspection could help the owners better understand the conditions of their vehicles in a bid to reduce risks of traffic incidents.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

This Is Why The Inspection Of Aging Vehicles At Puspakom Is Necessary

He said vehicle inspection is necessary although members of the public are concerned about irregularities during the execution stage, adding that the government should give priority to solving such issues.

        malaysia-chronicle.com

He said it is not sure whether Puspakom will be wholly authorized to inspect aging vehicles or other inspection centers will also be allowed to participate in vehicle inspection. However he said the government can emulate the system in UK where vehicles are inspected and maintained simultaneously.

Did The Education Ministry Reduce The Amount Of BB1M Allocation For Students This Year?

In last year's Budget 2016, the government allocated RM300 million for the 1Malaysia Book Vouchers (BB1M), whereby students will receive RM250 worth of vouchers

Image via Lily3488

The BB1M programme was kick-started by the government during the tabling of Budget 2012.The government's main objective of introducing this programme, is to ease parents' burdens by assisting the students to buy books, as well as to promote reading culture among Malaysians.

In a sudden turn of events, students from various local universities have revealed that BB1M is given out on a first-come-first-served basis this year, contrary to how it is usually given to all students in local universities

Image via Facebook

While some universities have opted for the "first-come, first-served" basis approach, other universities have instead pre-selected the students that are eligible for BB1M due to the limited number of vouchers provided by the government

Image via Facebook

Image via Facebook

In its BB1M 2016 guideline handbook, the Ministry Of Higher Education (MOHE) said that all of the estimated 1.2 million students in pre-university and higher learning institutions will receive the BB1M vouchers

Image via MOHE

Social media postings by a local university's community page showed that some students have gone to the extreme lengths to get the book vouchers

Image via TARC Confessions

From jumping queues to lining up under heavy rain, the postings showed how these students from Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TAR UC) were more than eager to receive their book vouchers.Local Mandarin daily Kwong Wah Yit Poh, reported that thousands of students from TAR UC in Kuala Lumpur queued up as early as three in the morning to ensure that they will not miss out on getting their share of BB1M. The university apparently handed out the vouchers over the span of three days, from 22 March till 24 March, on a first-come-first-served basis.  Kwong Wah Yit Poh also reported that the government has apparently only provided 75% of the vouchers to the university this year, due to unspecified reasons.

SAYS has tried to contact MOHE for comments on this issue but has yet to receive any response.

10 Mitos Kehamilan Yang Semua Pasangan Baru Berkahwin Tak Perlu Percaya

Setiap pasangan yang telah bernikah akan mempunyai perbezaan dari segi tempoh mereka untuk hamil

Image via Home Gymr

Ada yang hamil selepas sebulan mendirikan rumahtangga, ada yang hamil dalam tempoh 12 bulan perkahwinan, dan ada juga yang memakan masa beberapa tahun dan mungkin terdapat campur tangan perubatan untuk hamil. Hampir setiap bakal ibu-ibu ini, tidak kira berapa banyak masa yang diperlukan untuk hamil, akan membaca apa saja mengenai kehamilan untuk memastikan kesejahteraan bayi yang dikandungnya. Namun begitu, terdapat banyak maklumat palsu dan tidak tepat di internet yang kadangkala boleh memudaratkan bakal ibu-ibu ini.

Oleh yang demikian, kami di SAYS Seismik telah merungkai beberapa mitos kehamilan yang bukan sahaja berleluasa di internet bahkan yang biasa kita dengar dalam kehidupan seharian kita

Berikut adalah 10 mitos kehamilan yang semua perlu tahu:

1. Pinggul wanita yang besar akan memudahkan proses bersalin

Image via Teach Me Anatomy

Setiap tulang pinggul terdiri daripada 3 bahagian; ilium, ischium dan pubis.  Bahagian pinggul yang lebih luas merujuk kepada ilium yang lebih luas, iaitu bahagian pinggang yang paling besar dan paling atas.Tetapi sebenarnya, jarak antara puncak ilium ini tidak ada hubungannya dengan saiz kanal lahir. Bentuk dan saiz ruang di tengah-tengah pelvis yang diambil kira. ruang ini dipanggil salur pelvis dan bentuknya boleh jadi sama tidak kira sama ada wanita itu mempunyai pinggul besar mahupun kecil.

Image via flickr Cory Doctorow

2. Saiz dan bentuk perut menunjukkan jantina bayi itu sama ada lelaki atau perempuan

Image via Baby Center UK

Akan menjadi sangat senang buat bakal ibu bapa untuk mengenal pasti jantina bayi dengan cara ini, tetapi, malangnya ia tidaklah semudah itu. Terdapat 2 perkara yang boleh mempengaruhi bentuk dan saiz benjolan perut wanita hamil iaitu saiz janin serta kedudukannya dalam rahim.Yang pertama ialah saiz bayi. Memang benar bahawa purata bayi lelaki lebih berat jika dibandingkan dengan bayi perempuan, dan ini dapat menyebabkan benjolan untuk seorang lelaki tampak sedikit lebih besar. Tetapi perbezaan kecil dalam berat badan ini tidak mengubah bentuk benjolan perut bakal ibu.Yang kedua ialah kedudukan janin dalam rahim. Jika bahagian depan janin itu menghadap perut ibunya maka perut bakal ibu itu akan tampak lebih besar dan terkeluar. Jika janin itu membelakangi perut ibunya maka perut ibu akan kelihatan lebih rata dan kecil.

3. Kekerapan melakukan ultrasound tidak selamat untuk bayi

Image via She Knows

Imbasan ultrasound telah digunakan pada ibu-ibu hamil selama beberapa dekad, dan tiada bukti menunjukkan ianya membahayakan, jika digunakan mengikut panduannya. Orang yang mengendalikan imbasan itu (doktor atau sonografer) akan mengikuti panduan-panduan tersebut untuk memastikan bahawa anda dan bayi anda selamat.Ultrasound menghantar gelombang bunyi melalui uterus (rahim) anda yang dipantulkan oleh bayi. Gema yang dihasilkan ditukarkan kepada imej pada skrin, jadi doktor anda boleh melihat posisi dan pergerakan bayi dalam kandungan.Ultrasound tidak menggunakan radiasi seperti X-Ray bahkan keamatan gelombang ultrasounf adalah sangat rendah, dan prosedurnya cukup cepat, maka ianya tidaklah berbahaya.

4. Tidak selamat untuk bayi sekiranya bakal ibu berada dalam posisi baring melentang

Di dalam rahim ibunya, bayi itu dilindungi dengan otot rahim yang pejal. Seorang wanita hamil boleh berbaring dan tidur dalam keadaan melentang atas perutnya selagi ia selesa. Sekiranya bakal ibu berasa selesa, ia tidak akan membahayakan bayi.Kalau menghadapi kesukaran untuk tidur, boleh tengok video di bawah:

5. Tidak boleh berlari ketika sedang hamil

Image via Runners World

Mengandung tidak bermakna para ibu harus berhenti berlari, lebih-lebih lagi yang memang suka aktiviti itu.Sekiranya seorang wanita mempunyai kehamilan yang tidak rumit, ia adalah selamat dan sihat untuk dikendalikan semasa kesemua trimester. Sudah tentu, anda harus mengelakkan berlari jika anda mempunyai komplikasi kehamilan seperti tekanan darah tinggi atau kehamilan berganda iaitu kehamilan dengan dua janin atau lebih.

6. Morning sickness hanya berlaku pada waktu pagi dan hanya pada trimester pertama

Image via Nourishing Our Children

Morning sickness atau mual adalah gejala kehamilan yang paling kerap berlaku pada wanita hamil. Sehingga 80% wanita hamil mengalami masalah ini tetapi hanya 2% yang menderita hanya pada waktu pagi. Walaupun terdapat perkataan 'morning' namun gejala ini boleh berlaku pada bila-bila masa sepanjang hari. Sesetengah pakar bahkan mencadangkan memanggilnya "kesakitan sepanjang hari." Dalam majoriti kes, ia berakhir selepas trimester pertama, tetapi sehingga 20% wanita hamil mengalaminya sehingga bersalin.

7. Semua wanita akan berasa gembira semasa mengandung - ia adalah masa terbaik dalam hidup bakal ibu ini!

Ramai yang berpendapat bahawa kehamilan adalah masa yang paling gembira dalam kehidupan wanita, tetapi apa yang kita tidak tahu atau tidak nampak ramai wanita hamil mengalami tekanan, kekeliruan, ketakutan, dan perasaan tidak berpuas hati yang lain. 14%-23% wanita juga berjuang dengan beberapa gejala kemurungan semasa kehamilan.

Image via Scary Mommy

Ini berlaku kerana perubahan hormon dapat mempengaruhi otak dan bahan kimianya. Kemurungan harus dirawat, atau ia mungkin mempunyai potensi risiko kepada ibu dan bayi.

8. Anda kehilangan semua berat kehamilan selepas bersalin

Image via Flickr dherholz

Berat kehamilan adalah gabungan berat bayi, plasenta, rahim dan payudara yang semakin meningkat, peningkatan jumlah darah dan cecair dalam tubuh wanita, dan juga lemak tambahan. Sebaik sahaja melahirkan bayi tersebut, wanita akan segera kehilangan berat badan, plasenta, dan cecair amniotik. Dalam beberapa minggu akan datang, ibu harus kehilangan berat cecair dan apa yang tertinggal adalah lemak tambahan yang diperoleh wanita itu semasa mengandung. Dan masa yang wanita perlukan untuk menghilangkan lemak tambahan ini bergantung pada berapa banyak yang telah bertambah, serta motivasi wanita itu sendiri untuk hilangkan berat badan.

9. C-section adalah jalan mudah

Image via Mom Junction

Kebanyakkan bakal itu kini lebih memilih untuk melahirkan bayi mereka secara pembedahan caesarean atau C-section berbanding melahirkan secara semulajadi.Ini kerana ramai yang percaya bahawa C-section kurang menyakitkan dan lebih selamat. Pada hakikatnya, C-section juga menyakitkan, akan tetapi, tidak seperti kelahiran semulajadi di mana kesakitan bermula sejurus selepas bayi itu bakal dilahirkan. C-section kerap kali dikatakan boleh memberi komplikasi masa depan, oleh kerana perkara inilah, C-section selalunya disyorkan oleh doktor hanya apabila berlaku komplikasi ketika bersalin untuk menyelamatkan nyawa ibu atau bayi.

10. Janin tidak terjejas dengan apa yang berlaku di luar rahim

Image via Pixabay

Banyak kajian yang menyatakan bahawa bayi boleh mendengar suara, terutama suara ibu mereka, yang dikatakan boleh menenangkan mereka. Bayi juga dapat melihat cahaya di luar perut ibu dan akan berpaling sekiranya cahaya itu terlalu terang. Bayi boleh merasai makanan yang ibunya makan dengan menghidu dan menjilat plasenta dan dinding uterus. Selain itu bayi juga boleh bermimpi dan bertindak balas terhadap dunia di sekeliling mereka. Oleh itu, mereka sangat terjejas oleh segala yang berlaku di luar.

Oleh itu, bakal ibu bapa jangan cepat percaya semua yang anda baca dalam internet atau apa yang orang sekeliling memberitahu anda... melainkan orang itu pakar obstetrik, maka dengarlah katanya!

[VIDEO] 31-Year-Old Literally Defies Gravity By Running Upside Down In A 360-Degree Loop

Did you know that it's possible for a human to do a loop-the-loop on foot? Well, maybe not for just you average Joe, but it is for superhuman free-runner Damien Walters.

Stunt-man and gymnast Damien Walters spent over four months planning with scientists from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at MIT in Boston to try to complete the seemingly gravity-defying feat.

        telegraph.co.uk

PepsiMax sponsored the daredevil's attempt, providing him with a human-sized loop the loop (10ft high) in an abandoned warehouse. After working the math out, he needed to be going 8.6 mph at the top, let's see if he managed it.

        mashable.com

This loop the loop was especially built for Damien Walters to run

Image via youtube.com

To complete the circle, he needed to run at 8.65 mph. So, apparently it’s mathematically possible for a human to run the loop-the-loop.

Image via youtube.com

But before Damien, no one had attempted this trick

Image via youtube.com

So, after practicing extensively with strategically placed mats…

Image via youtube.com

… he finally did it. And it’s incredible to watch. He should change his name to Spider-Man. Or Hot Wheels Man.

Warden Accused Of Killing A Trainee Is Comforted By Family After He Starts Crying In Court

Follow us on Instagram, TikTok, and Telegram for the latest stories and breaking news.

The Sungai Siput Courthouse today, 8 February, was filled with confusion after the magistrate briefly adjourned the court session

The court was in session to charge two Narcotics Addiction Rehabilitation Centre (PUSPEN) employees, who are accused of murdering a resident at the centre on the morning of 31 January.PUSPEN warden Nur Aslam Faizal, aged 35, together with intern Suffian Effendy Kadri, aged 30, allegedly murdered 50-year-old Mohd Ali Mohd Nor at the centre in Perlop, Sungai Siput in Perak.The two nodded when the charge framed under Section 302 of the Penal Code was jointly read out together with Section 34 of the same law before magistrate Nurul Asyifa Redzuan.The charge provides for the death penalty if convicted.However, Nur Aslam started sobbing after he could not hold back tears behind the accused's cage and his family members were seen trying to calm him down by trying to hug him, reported Harian Metro.

The magistrate allowed Nur Aslam five minutes to meet his family

During the proceedings, which were being conducted by Nur Aslam's lawyer Keshvinder Singh and deputy public prosecutor (DPP) R S Vitthiyeswary, Keshvinder requested for his client, who is the father of three kids, to be given a brief moment to meet his family members as he had not seen them since his arrest.Magistrate Nurul allowed the application for a brief meeting between Nur Aslam, his mother, and his wife.The intern, Suffian Effendy, did not have any representation.No plea was recorded as murder cases are under the jurisdiction of the High Court.The court has set 10 April for mention as it awaits the complete post-mortem and forensic report.

The two accused were arrested together with two others last week

Perak police chief Datuk Seri Mohd Yusri Hassan Basri said that four individuals comprising the PUSPEN warden and the intern were arrested in connection with the murder of the 50-year-old resident.According to Mohd Yusri, an autopsy found that there were injuries on the victim's back.New Straits Times reported that it is believed he was hit by a blunt object.Nur Aslam is also a staff member of the National Anti-Drugs Agency (AADK).


An Overview Of The 10 Shooting Cases In Malaysia In The Last 30 Days

The recent spate of shooting-related crimes across the country has left not only the general public feeling alarmed, but they have also increased the Malaysian police department's concerns. So much so that a Special Task Force has been formed to look into the cases:

File photo of IGP Khalid Abu Bakar speaking at a press conference.

"I have said before that there’s a reason behind each shooting case. This is not a random shooting. This is not people having fun going around shooting there, shooting here. There is a reason behind it, so give us time. Actually, I have prepared a team dedicated to handle shooting cases, but because these cases seem more frequent, I have added a task force to track down and ensure those involved are arrested," Inspector-General of Police Khalid was quoted as saying by The Malay Mail Online.

In fact, the situation, as per retired IGP Musa Hassan, is so bad that he has reportedly urged PDRM to revive its 'Ops Cantas' operation

"Our country is now like a cowboy country... I hope the police will take stern action. I also hope the police will carry out 'Ops Cantas' involving secret societies."

        malaysiakini.com

The latest case of shooting happened on Wednesday, 13 July, at a chicken processing factory in Batu Maung. There, a family of 4 was murdered by their own family member who used an unregistered gun to kill them while they were sleeping in their container home.

It's said that the man was on drugs that he procured illegally

An issue on which PKR MP for Bayan Baru Sim Tze Tzin expressed horror and outrage. He compared the current law & order issue in Malaysia to that of certain places in Thailand and the Philippines and asked, "How could anyone gain access to illegal guns so easily? And how could anyone gain access to illegal drugs so easily?"

Prior to that, on Monday night, 11 July, a 40-year-old businessman from Batu Pahat narrowly escaped a murder attempt on his life when 2 gunmen fired a few shots at him, The Star Online reported

While recent shooting cases may have created a public perception that firearm-related crimes are on the rise, in a manner of statistically speaking, they are, in fact, no different to that in the past years in the country. The police, however, are not taking any chances.

So far, there have been 10 cases of shooting from 15 June

On 15 June, a businessman was shot dead by an unidentified motorcyclist at the Sungai Rasau toll plaza in Selangor, reported The Malay Mail Online.The 43-year-old was driving to his home in Kajang from Klang and had just passed the toll when he was hit six times from the 10 shots that were fired at him.

Then on 21 June, PKR's Miri branch secretary, Bill Kayong, was gunned down at a traffic junction inside his Toyota in Kuala Baram

The fact that Bill Kayong was a vociferous advocate of social issues and had banked on NCR land issues in the last state election, it led to Malaysian police forming a special task force to investigate his murder.Following which, on 5 July, after seizing several shotgun bullets with a shotgun believed to have used in the shooting and a used cartridge along with the arrest of 6 suspects, police said that they "believe we have solved the Bill Kayong murder case."

On the same day, 21 June, in a gang-related shooting, another gunman shot two brothers at a traffic light junction near Batu Caves

The men, said to be brothers, were in two separate cars and were shot when they stopped at the traffic lights at Jalan Besar Sunway Batu Caves around 12.10pm.Police said the elder brother, 34, was shot in the head and is in serious condition, while the younger one, 30, was shot in the ear and cheek.

        straitstimes.com

The Batu Caves gunman was later killed in an encounter with police on 29 June at USJ 11 in Subang Jaya. According to the Selangor Deputy Police Chief, he was involved in 12 robbery cases and 5 drug offences, among others, The Malay Mail Online reported.

A week later, a 40-year-old man was shot 5 times by two unidentified assailants at the KL-Seremban Highway. He survived.

This month's first reported case of shooting happened on 5 July

On Tuesday, 5 July, a 29-year old Bangladeshi staff at a petrol station along Persiaran Mahkota Cheras, was shot by two armed robbers who rode into the petrol station on a motorcycle. The victim suffered injuries to both his thighs.Same day, around 10pm, an unidentified but a well-built man fired 12 bullets at the house of a 42-year-old divorcee who was inside with her three children. The man fled the scene soon after.

On the next day, 6 July, a mother was fatally shot by two unknown assailants while she was driving in OUG along Jalan Hujan Emas

According to The Star Online, the shots were fired at close range. In the shooting, the victim's eight-year-old daughter was also shot and was in critical condition. She was sitting in the front passenger seat. No arrests have been made so far.

Image via NST

On 9 July, near Ipoh, a 29-year-old man's body was found with a head wound from a gunshot. The man, identified as Khairul Azizan Zaidi, was out on hunting with his friend, The Star Online reported.

Police have remanded two suspects to assist in the investigation. One of the suspects tested positive for drugs, although none of the two have a criminal record.

In total, from 15 June to 13 July, there have been 10 reported cases of shooting, in which 8 people have died (not counting the ones killed in the encounter with police), with 6 injured and 4 unharmed

Back in March this year, Home Minister Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi, while submitting a written reply to Nga Kor Ming in the Dewan Rakyat, had said that a total of 89,771 Malaysians have been issued licences to bear arms ranging from rifles to stun guns.The licences, Dr. Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said, were issued as of 31 December last year.He had praised the police operations under 'Ops Cantas' and close monitoring of border and entry points in Malaysia for helping curb gun-smuggling activities.

However, following the recent shooting-related cases, it was revealed that firearms are being easily smuggled into Malaysia after they are first dismantled into smaller parts in Thailand and then brought inside by different people, according to a senior enforcement officer, with over 20 years of experience manning the border at Bukit Kayu Hitam."On this side of the border, the guns are put together again and sold to ready buyers," The Star Online reported the officer as saying. He said it was difficult to detect as the smugglers could be just about anybody from motorists and bus drivers to pedestrians.

"Dia Ibu Anak-anak Saya" - Ramai Puji Cara Chef Wan Ambil Berat Bekas Isteri Yang Sakit

Mungkin ada yang tidak tahu bahawa Chef Wan sudah lama menjadi bapa tunggal apabila perkahwinannya bersama bekas isteri menemui pengakhiran suatu ketika dahulu

Image via malaymail.com

Walaupun begitu, Chef Wan sehingga hari ini masih menjalankan tanggungjawab terhadap bekas isteri dengan memberi nafkah tanpa gagal.“Saya dah lama jadi bapa tunggal ni, walaupun dah bercerai saya tetap beri nafkah kepada bekas isteri, saya tahu nanti bila umur dah tak panjang, saya puas hati saya dah buat itu, saya dah buat ini, saya boleh tutup mata dengan tenang,” katanya kepada FMT tahun lalu.

Semalam, 25 Februari 2020, Chef Wan memuat naik sebuah posting di Instagram yang menyentuh hati ramai orang

Image via googleapis.com

Chef Wan menceritakan secara panjang lebar tentang penyakit yang dihidapi oleh bekas isterinya yang kini dirawat di Hospital Kuala Lumpur. Menurut beliau, bekas isterinya itu yang menghidap penyakit Kencing Manis perlu menjalani pembedahan bagi memotong kedua-dua belah kaki.Akibat daripada gangrene (sel kulit mati sehingga bertukar hitam), prosedur itu terpaksa dilakukan untuk mencegah jangkitan daripada tersebar ke organ lain dalam tubuh sehingga menyebabkan kematian.

Beliau turut menyentuh kisah silam di mana arwah bapanya juga meninggal dunia disebabkan penyakit Kencing Manis tujuh tahun lepas

"Arwah ayah dulu pun sama. Dia meninggal dunia akibat Kencing Manis selepas kedua-dua belah kakinya dipotong dalam masa dua tahun," tulis Chef Wan."Pada masa itu, kaki keduanya perlu dipotong tetapi dia mempunyai serangan jantung dan meninggal dunia tujuh tahun yang lalu. Begitu sedih saya mendengar berita ini."

Chef Wan kemudian memberitahu anak-anaknya untuk membawa bekas isterinya pulang dan tinggal di rumahnya selepas pembedahan selesai

Menurutnya, adalah lebih baik jika bekas isterinya itu tinggal di rumahnya bersama ibunya kerana anak-anaknya terlalu sibuk dengan tuntutan kerja setiap hari, sehingga tiada masa untuk memberi perhatian.Dia turut mencadangkan anaknya untuk mengupah seorang jururawat supaya kebajikan bekas isterinya dijaga.

Image via Instagram @_chefwan58

"Saya memberitahu anak perempuan saya, apa yang saya boleh lakukan sekarang selepas pembedahannya ialah mengupah seorang jururawat untuk menjaganya di rumah bersama ibu saya," tulis beliau lagi."Pasti sukar bagi anak-anak untuk merawatnya kerana masing-masing sibuk dengan kerja mereka."Sekurang-kurangnya saya ada pembantu rumah serta pemandu untuk membawanya ke hospital bagi menjalani dialisis tiga kali seminggu."

"She's the mother of my children. The least i could do is to comfort her in the remaining of her life"

Baca tulisan penuh Chef Wan di bawah:

         View this post on Instagram           My daughter visiting me after visiting her mother at GH hospital. Her diabetes sore from the leg has turned to gangrine and from the MRI showed that there no way to save her leg except to be amputated asap. Otherwise it can destroy the heart and she can die due to the infection spresding up wards to other organs too. We were told today even the second leg with sore also need to be amputated. But they will do one first as she has a weak heart and loosing 2 legs at the same time is too much for her. We were told to think about this asap and make our quick decision. However the dr said there risk from this amputation as her heart is also weak. She can die from this operation too! This really put us in a difficult position. To amputate or not still we are taking the risk. I was told by my son yesterday that she was so depressed hearing this new. As devastated as we are as families we all have warn her about her eating habits for years knowing she is suffering from diabetes. She would not take my advice and i kind of expected this one day would happened. By late dad was the same. He died of diabetes after they amputated his leg after 2 years. At that time his 2nd leg was going to be amputated too but he had a heart attack and passed away 7 years ago. So sad to hear this new. I told my daughter what i can do now after the surgery is to hire a nurse to care for her and care for her at my home with my mother. Its difficult for the kids to care for her as they are busy with their work. At least i have my maid, her current maid which i hire too and my driver to take her to her 3x a week dialysis. Omg such a huge challenge and responsibilities i will need to face now. My home soon will turn to be a nursing home dah. But what to do. She the mother of my children. The least i could do is to comfort her in the remaining of her life. Life is indeed a huge challenge but one must always make that sacrificies. Tak kan kita nak sia2 kan dia. May Allah give me the strength..Insyallah. A post shared by  chef wan (@_chefwan58) on Feb 24, 2020 at 6:21am PST
