[LEAKED] The Secret Google Project Called 'Google Stars'

Google Is Testing A Cloud Service Bookmarking Tool Called Google Stars

Image via vox-cdn.com

Google is testing a new Chrome feature that would allow users to save any piece of content — an email, a web page, an image — and review it later as part of a searchable, organizable library.

        theverge.com

The Feature Was First Unearthed By Florian Kiersch, A German Student Who Enjoys Trawling Google Code

Image via tnwcdn.com

"Thank you for dogfooding Google Stars!" reads one output in the code, suggesting that Google employees are testing the feature now. "We are working hard to make Google Stars a product you love."

        androidpolice.com

Google Stars was originally called Google Collections, Kiersch writes, and it looks like a cross between Pinterest, Dropbox, and Del.icio.us, laid out in an image-rich grid. "More beautiful than bookmarks," the source code says.

        theverge.com

The Stars Is Like Pocket, Sans Reading. The Interface Is A Bit Like Drive For The Web, Wherein You Can Save Your Favourite Pages In A Card-Based Environment.

Go anywhere on the web - in Google Chrome, the web browser - and hit the star on the far right of the address bar. From there, Google will save said piece of the internet for your later browsing.

        slashgear.com

You can make folders of your own, you can view all of your content at once, and you create filters. The entire setup looks extremely simple - like Google Drive, but until you start to fill "Stars" up, it’s barren.

Stars Could End Up Being A True Cataloging For Your Web Content, Replete With A Simplified Interface

What seems to be a neat way to catalog bookmarks (you bookmark something in Chrome by highlighting the star, after all) could lead to much more. What it is right now is a new way to find and share bookmarks, which is either really unnecessary or leading into something extensively cool.

This App Lets You Schedule Your Uber Rides In Advance!

If you use Uber, you would know that the app is sorely missing out one crucial feature - the ability to book and request a ride in advance

Image via Insurify

There are plenty of times when you know you’re going to need a lift well in advance, but you can't.

A new app called TaxiLater aims to provide that missing feature. Using this third party app, you can select the kind of Uber you want, the location of the pickup, and the requested time of the pickup.

Image via iTunes

The app was created by Joshua Meier, a student at Harvard. Meier has been in contact with Uber over the course of building the app.

Joshua Meier
Image via CNN

“I’m not trying to build a company or monetize here. I’m just a student who loves coding, saw a problem/opportunity, and thought I could build something that would help people," said Meier.

Here's how TaxiLater works:

First, log into the app with your Uber account

Image via SAYS

If you don't have an Uber account, you could sign up through the app too.

Much like Uber, you'll be greeted with a map of your current location. Next, select your drop off and pick up location.

Image via SAYS

Then select the time you want your Uber ride to arrive

Image via SAYS

According to Meier, the algorithms of the app continually adjust the optimal time for requesting the ride.

Finally, select your preferred type of Uber ride and you're done!

Image via SAYS

You'll be able to keep track your requests and update them should you wish to change the time and date.

The app is certainly very useful but it has one major drawback - it doesn't gurantee a driver will accept your request when it’s made

Image via Next Big What

However, I personally tried out the app at 11.40am this morning to schedule a ride at 12.05pm. The Uber driver called me up at 11.55pm to confirm the pickup location.

TaxiLater is currently only available for download on iTunes. An Android version of the app is scheduled to be released soon.

Try out the app and let us know if you have any luck scheduling your Uber ride!

Having a bad day? Need to de-stress? Just wanna be around some doggos? We've got the perfect little cafe for you!

Get into the mood for snuggles, because that's what you're gonna get at Shi-ba Cafe!Recently opened this past February, Shi-ba Cafe has already garnered a reputation as 'the' place to go if you wanna cuddle some pups. A two-in-one for patrons, come for the dogs, and stay for the food!

Image via Shi-ba Cafe (Facebook)

Popularly known as hunting dogs from Japan, Shiba Inus are intelligent, even-tempered, and absolutely adorable

Currently, there are 10 Shiba Inus that inhabit the cafe. Founded by dog lover, Desmond Chong, the space was initially opened up as an escape for his six personal dogs to run free, after his neighbours complained about them barking.It's an open area where all the pets get to roam around the cafe during operating hours.

Beyond the 10 Shiba Inus, the establishment also houses two Alaskan malamutes, one corgi, and one precious British Shorthair cat! Living in harmony, come and ravage all these cute creatures with pats and scratches.

Housed in a fully air-conditioned space, each pup is well cared for and prioritised to the fullest

Alongside providing proper resting time and maintaining healthy diets, the owner is dedicated to ensuring the well-being of his pups take precedent over anything else. As a source of entertainment for visitors, you can purchase approved dog treats from the cafe (that cost roughly around RM2) to feed the floofs. This is also a good way to lure them in for a snuggle session.

Image via Shi-ba Cafe (Facebook)

Currently, Shi-ba Cafe also offers a dog grooming service, and puppies for sale. Be sure to contact the owner of the cafe for more information, as only a selected few are up for adoption. The cafe also occupies the second floor of a shophouse in Mount Austin. However, there are plans by the venture to convert the third floor into a pet hotel, effectively contributing more services for the benefit of the public, and providing a wider area of inhabitance for their doggies.

Image via Shi-ba Cafe (Facebook)

Image via Shi-ba Cafe (Facebook)

Entry to the cafe costs RM10 per hour, with the accompaniment of free soft drinks

While not extensive, there is a fairly liberal menu of beverages and foods. Most of the items are finger foods, such as popcorn chicken and fries, but there are also full meals — including their popular Japanese Curry Rice. Note however, that the dogs and other pets are strictly not allowed to have the human food items.

Man Joins GE15 Rallies Of 3 Different Parties To Get Free T-Shirts

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

In a viral TikTok video, a man is shown gleefully posing at recent rallies of various political parties across Malaysia

He's also seen donning different shirts that display the names of three of the six coalitions currently fighting for voter support in the upcoming 15th General Election (GE15) — Pakatan Harapan (PH), Barisan Nasional (BN), and Perikatan Nasional (PN).

Apparently, the man attended one rally in the morning, and went to a different rally later that evening. He then came home wearing a PN T-shirt, claiming he got it for free.Reacting to the man's hustle for free T-shirts on Twitter, a person claimed he was with the man the day before the tweet was posted.Talk about efficiency!

Image via Twitter

Image via Twitter

The images were posted to his Facebook account

The account has since been deactivated, and the man's photos were compiled by another user. It's a wonder he decided to post them in the first place — perhaps he wanted to display his dedication as a true centrist.

Image via Australian Survivor/GIPHY

Netizens, however, came to their own hilarious conclusions

On Reddit, where the video was also shared, one user claimed that since the T-shirts are free for rally participants, on top of a financial compensation of RM50 per rally, one's profits correlate with the number of rallies they attend. The rewards of which you can sweep up — "all sapu".

Image via Reddit

Another joked he was treating the T-shirts like collectible Pokemon.

Image via Reddit

Other Twitter users suggested that maybe he just likes winning — it's a foolproof plan!

Image via Twitter

Funny business aside, it's gonna be one vote per person for the looming election. Be sure to save the date — every vote matters!

A Small Deserted Island Known As "The Most Haunted Place On Earth" Is Up For Auction

It's in one of the most popular tourism locations in the world, located between Venice and Lido in the Venetian Lagoon, northern Italy. But Poveglia rarely sees any visitors.

        independent.co.uk

The Island Was Sealed Off And Turned Into A Quarantine Zone For People With Infectious Diseases In 1793

Poveglia’s sordid history serves asa good explanation for why no one wants to go there. The 17-acre island became a dumping ground for Europeans dying of the plague.

        time.com

No, but seriously, this place sounds scary. The trouble started back in the late 19th century when Poveglia served as a checkpoint for ships going to Venice. After a pair of ships carrying plague victims arrived in 1793, the island was sealed off and turned into a quarantine zone for people with infectious diseases, a role it served for over a century.

        gizmodo.com

The Place Was Then Converted Into A Hospital For The Mentally Ill In 1922

It goes without saying that many of these people died on the island during this time, leading to the widespread belief that Poveglia is haunted. It didn't help when the place was converted into a hospital for the mentally ill in 1922.

The uninhabited 17-acre island, was once a dumping ground for dying plague victims. More recently it was home to a mental hospital run by a cruel doctor who performed lobotomies on patients with crude tools like hand drills, chisels, and hammers. It is said to be haunted by tens of thousands of tortured spirits.

        independent.co.uk

One Local Saying Goes, "When An Evil Man Dies, He Wakes Up In Poveglia"

Venetians are deeply superstitious about the island and see it as purgatory for evil souls. One local saying goes: 'when an evil man dies, he wakes up in Poveglia.'

The Island Has Been Featured On The Paranormal Reality Shows "Ghost Adventures" And "Scariest Places On Earth"

It has become a draw for supernatural investigators searching for signs of the rumoured spirits, the most famous of which is a plague victim called Little Maria, who it is claimed stands crying looking out across the lagoon towards her home.

        independent.co.uk

According To The Telegraph, The Plan For The Decrepit Building Is To Transform It Into A Luxury Hotel

The Italian state is now hoping that offers will arrive to transform the hospital into a luxury hotel under a deal giving the buyer a 99-year lease to redevelop the property, while the island remains the property of the state.

        telegraph.co.uk

A spokeswoman for Italy’s state sales agency declined to put a possible price on Poveglia but noted that barracks buildings had previously been sold for up to €3.8 (over RM17 million) million. Another 148 properties are due to be auctioned off this year, with the state hoping to raise €500 million.

Tradisi 'Perang' Malam Raya Di Kampung Ini Amat Unik Dan Sukar Ditemui

Artikel ini ditulis berdasarkan satu perkongsian dari Li Ipoh di Facebook pada 6 Julai 2015

Sudah lama aku dengar mengenainya malah ada yang meragui kebenarannya. Bagaikan mitos yang sudah bertukar ke lagenda semasa. Kisah sebuah gugusan kampung di daerah Perak Tengah yang bertukar menjadi 'medan perang' menjelang Syawal.

Image via thevocket.com

Bila kembali berkerja di Ipoh menghampiri penghujung Ramadhan aku jadi lebih berminat dengan keraian luarbiasa ini. Dari internet dan youtube aku dapati ini bukan omong kosong.Maka di petang ambang lebaran 2014 setelah selesai segala persiapan raya aku mula merempit seorang diri ke Kuala Kangsar. Hanya untuk menyaksikan 'perang' setahun sekali ini.Yang istimewa, ianya direstui segenap masyarakat disitu termasuk pihak berkuasa.

'Perang' ini berlaku di tengah-tengah kawasan bendang di Kampung Talang. Kalau ada yang pernah menonton adegan kali pertama Pak Abu dan Pak Jabit jadi zombie dan muncul di tengah sawah dalam filem Zombie Kampung Pisang, disitulah tempatnya.

Image via thevocket.com

Setiba di lokasi aku lihat telah tersiap gagah berpuluh-puluh meriam paip besi di beberapa tempat mewakili kampung-kampung kecil di situ. Di satu-satu tempat ada lebih kurang sepuluh buah meriam berukur lilit dua peluk orang dewasa dan sepanjang 10 kaki dihalakan antara satu sama lain. Aku sempat bertanya kepada seorang budak lelaki kerana aku sangkakan tahun itu tiada 'perang' kerana masih dalam tempoh berkabung kerana kemangkatan Almarhum Sultan Perak."Ishhh meroyam mesti ader chor. Takde meroyam idak meriah, idak jadi rayer", jawab budak itu.

Bila dimaklumkan yang 'perang' hanya akan bermula tepat tengah malam raya, pukul 11 malam bila kembali ke lokasi aku dapati kawasan itu telah dipenuhi ribuan pengunjung

Image via thevocket.com

Bukan sahaja penduduk tempatan malah pengunjung luar tanpa mengira bangsa turut mengambil kesempatan menyaksikan pesta unik ini. Di sepanjang jalan hingga ke atas ban ramai peniaga membuka tapak perniagaan masing-masing.Memang sudah menjadi warisan berzaman kampung ini malah ibu-ibu yang baru bersalin dan beranak kecil juga akan rela meninggalkan kampung ini sebentar di malam raya kerana sudah terbiasa.

Dulu asalnya pesta meriam ini menggunakan meriam buluh biasa tapi untuk lebih selamat kemudian ditukar kepada paip besi dan memang tidak pernah berlaku sebarang kemalangan selama ia diadakan

Image via thevocket.com

Aku mula mengambil tempat untuk merakam video, betul-betul beberapa meter dibelakang salah satu meriam. Cadang aku selepas itu aku akan merakam video ditengah-tengah antara dua meriam supaya lebih terasa kesannya. Masing-masing sudah bersedia. Hadirin turut senyap menanti. General sudah mengangkat tangan, serentak yang diatas meriam juga mengangkat sumbu api.Haaaaaaa!!!!!! Isyarat arahan dari general supaya meriam dibakar.

Boom , boom, boom!!!! Gempita sudah kedengaran. 'Perang' sudah bermula.

Sekumpulan pemuda dan budak lelaki kampung itu sudah bersedia dengan tugas masing-masing. Ada yang duduk diatas setiap meriam. Ada yang menjaga dan mengisi belerang kedalam setiap meriam. Dan seorang pemuda berjalan dan melihat satu persatu keadaan meriam supaya ledakan berlaku lancar.Boommm!!!! Serentak sumbu dihalakan ke hujung tengah meriam, meledakkan isi belerang, mencabut penutup dihujungnya dan menghasilkan bunyi dan percikan yang sangat kuat. Gema dan gegaran dari letupan meriam itu membuatkan telinga aku pekak sebentar dan hampir sahaja kamera terlucut dari peganganku.

Ternyata apa yang aku lihat di youtube hanya 60% gambaran sebenar. Kerana apa yang ada di depan mata aku hari itu lebih hebat.

Selesai ledakan itu belerang kembali diisi di penutup dan diletakkan kembali dihujung meriam. Lubang tempat nyalaan meriam ditutup supaya isi belerang sebati sebelum dibuka kembali setelah menerima arahan general. Dan proses sama berulang. Hanya jenis ledakan berbeza-beza. Ada ledakan berturut antara meriam, berdua-dua , semua meriam diledak serentak malah bersekali dengan semua meriam yang ada di kumpulan lain. Betul-betul membangkitkan suasana bagai berada di medan perang sebenar.

Setahu aku 'perang' ini hanya akan berakhir sebelum solat sunat Aidilfitri pagi nanti. Ada juga sumber mengatakan 'perang' ini berlarutan sehingga tengahhari hari raya pertama.

Setelah puas menyaksikan ledakan dan berdepan kemungkinan hilang pendengaran selepas sejam disitu aku mula beredar pulang. Melalui jalan atas ban aku melihat ramai pengunjung duduk di tepi bendang menyaksikan ledakan dari jauh. Nampak sayup di saujana mata kawasan sawah padi itu percikan merah dari hujung meriam berserta bunyi gempita bagai di Perang Teluk lagaknya. Menghidupkan motorsikal aku pulang ke Ipoh sambil tersenyum riang. Impian aku untuk melihat 'medan perang' lagenda ini untuk membuktikan kebenarannya akhirnya hadir juga.

Biarpun ada terbaca komen di internet ini semua pembaziran tapi bagi aku ini tarikan bangsa yang wajar dipertahankan. Dan pastinya aku akan kembali menjelang raya mendatang.

Did Angola Really Ban Islam? Here's What You Should Know.

According to several reports, Angola has reportedly declared Islam illegal and ordered for all of the country’s mosques to be closed down

In an apparent attempt to prevent the spread of Islamic extremism, the African nation of Angola has banned Islam and is in the process of tearing down mosques, according to multiple media reports.

        examiner.com

On November 24, Angola President José Eduardo dos Santos said the country is working toward putting an end to Islamic influence in Angola once and for all.

        dailymail.co.uk

Angolan President José Eduardo dos Santos was quoted in Nigeria's Osun Defender newspaper on Sunday as saying that, "This is the final end of Islamic influence in our country," according to a report by OnIslam.net.

The African economic news agency Agence Ecofin notes that, "According to several Angolan newspapers, Angola has become the first country in the world to ban Islam and Muslims, taking first measures by destroying mosques in the country."

        codewit.com

Minister of culture Rosa Cruz e Silva said that mosques in the largely Christian country would be closed until further notice

She said “The process of legalization of Islam has not been approved by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, their mosques would be closed until further notice.”

        dailymail.co.uk

Less than 1 per cent of the Angolan population of 19 million people are Muslim

She described Islam as a ‘sect’ that would be banned as counter to Angolan customs and culture.

        ibtimes.com

The International Business Times earlier reported that there are unconfirmed reports that mosques across the African country are being destroyed

In a physical extension of the officials' sentiments about Islam's place in Angola, La Nouvelle Tribune said that a minaret of an Angolan mosque was dismantled last October, and that the city of Zango "has gone further by destroying the only mosque in the city."

        ibtimes.com

Unverified image!
Image via trunews.com

The emerging reports about Angola "banning" Islam and dismantling mosques point to the anti-Islam sentiments held by many in the nation's citizens, but they could not immediately be independently verified by International Business Times.

        dailymail.co.uk

Along with Islam, which is a religion associated with less than 1 per cent of the population of 19 million, 194 other ‘sects’ have been banned in the nation, where more than half the population is Christian.

        theblaze.com

However, an unnamed official at the Angolan Embassy in Washington D.C. has denied that the nation has banned Islam

The official at the Angolan Embassy in Washington, D.C., who did not want to be identified while discussing the sensitive matter, said that there is no such ban, and that the reports are erroneous.

        ibtimes.com

“The Republic of Angola … it’s a country that does not interfere in religion,” the official said via telephone Monday afternoon. “We have a lot of religions there. It is freedom of religion. We have Catholic, Protestants, Baptists, Muslims and evangelical people.”

        intoday.in

A second official at the Angolan Embassy in the U.S. reiterated that the diplomatic seat has not been made aware of any ban on Islam in the country.

        libertynewsonline.com

“At the moment we don’t have any information about that,” the official told IBTimes via phone on Monday. “We’re reading about it just like you on the Internet. We don’t have any notice that what you’re reading on the Internet is true.”

        ibtimes.com

The officials at the Angolan Embassy in Washington could not attest to the veracity of the comments attributed to officials in Angola seemingly affirming the Islam ban, which outlets including IBTimes had referenced in initial stories on the reports published over the weekend.

Editor's note: This article has been updated to clarify that travellers must be both fully vaccinated and have recently been infected with COVID-19 to be exempted from quarantine.

Travellers entering Malaysia who are fully vaccinated and have recently contracted COVID-19 do not need to undergo quarantine upon arrival

In a statement on Wednesday, 12 January, Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said travellers will need to show proof that they are fully vaccinated and have evidence that they had been infected with the coronavirus 11 to 60 days before arriving in the country.They must have either printed or digital laboratory reports that prove they were infected within that period.Khairy added that those who had been hospitalised for COVID-19 will also need to present a Fit to Travel letter from the health facility where they received treatment.

The matter was among the latest standard operating procedure (SOP) for travellers with a history of COVID-19 infection, which comes into effect on Thursday, 13 January

All related documents should be brought along to show to flight and health authorities when requested, the statement added.However, all travellers — regardless of vaccination status or COVID-19 history — must be screened for the virus using RT-PCR test.Those who test positive will not be allowed to enter Malaysia.Khairy said this new ruling was based on scientific evidence and the experience of other countries in their management of travellers who had been infected.As for those who have not completed their vaccination, they will need to undergo mandatory quarantine for seven days at designated centres.

Bukit Aman Is Investigating Lim Kit Siang After Najib Accused Him Of Inciting The People

Subscribe to our Telegram channel for our latest stories and breaking news.

Iskandar Puteri member of parliament (MP) Lim Kit Siang is being investigated for the remarks he made in a press statement on 19 May

While not naming the DAP veteran, police said they are investigating the screenshot of a tweet accompanied by a question from his press statement that was tweeted by Kit Siang on Thursday morning.Bukit Aman CID director Datuk Seri Abd Jalil Hassan said that the screenshot of the tweet has gone viral on WhatsApp and that the content of the tweet can allegedly potentially disrupt harmony.Kit Siang, in cautionary remarks, had asked, "will the houses of the Prime Minister and Ministers of Malaysia be set on fire by angry protestors as happened in Sri Lanka last week?" adding that while it was not likely to happen soon, Malaysia must learn from the mistakes of Sri Lanka."This is not going to happen today, this month or this year, but will it happen before Malaysia marks its Centennial in 2057 or 2063? Are we following in the footsteps of Sri Lanka?"Abd Jalil said that police are investigating the remarks under Section 505(c) for making statements intended to incite or which are likely to incite and under Section 233 of the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 for improper use of network facilities or network service.

The investigation against Kit Siang comes after former prime minister Najib Razak accused the Iskandar Puteri MP of inciting the public

Najib, in a Facebook post on the same day, had asked the police to arrest Kit Siang, while calling him an "instigator" who has continued to "deceive and incite the people" for 60 years.

After Najib's criticism, Kit Siang said he changed the headline of the statement on the advice of his political secretary Syahredzan Johan

While the previous headline of the statement in question was titled, "Will the houses of the prime minister and ministers of Malaysia be set on fire by angry protesters as happened in Sri Lanka last week?", the headline now reads, "Can Malaysia learn from the lessons of Sri Lanka?"

Can Malaysia learn from the lessons of Sri Lanka? https://t.co/FNmfBPoYdt pic.twitter.com/W7YKMesm9B— Lim Kit Siang (@limkitsiang) May 19, 2022

He also hit out against Najib for accusing him of incitement to violence

According to Kit Siang, he was simply warning that Malaysia should learn from its Asian neighbour's ongoing experience and prevent its political and socio-economic conditions from deteriorating."I have already explained that I had no intention to incite any unrest in Malaysia but to warn of the dangers of allowing the political and socio-economic conditions in Malaysia to deteriorate as happened in Sri Lanka for over half a century as to become a failed state. I had asked the question whether the houses of the Prime Minister and the Ministers of Malaysia will be set on fire by angry protestors as happened in Sri Lanka last week and immediately answered the question: This is not going to happen today, this month or this year, but will it happen before Malaysia marks its Centennial in 2057 or 2063?" he said.Kit Siang added that while he had expected "political desperados and opportunists" to distort the meaning of his statement, he had not expected "a former prime minister to head the charge".

Meanwhile, Wan Ahmad Fayhsal wished Najib a 'happy new marriage' after a photo of the latter with a woman went viral:

                Bersatu Rep Wishes Najib 'Happy New Marriage' After Photo Of Him With A Woman Goes Viral

Datuk Seri Najib Razak refused reporters' request today, 20 May, to comment about the viral photo.

Stomach-Churning Photos Of People Trying To Cross China's Giant Glass Bridge

On 24 September, a suspension bridge made of glass opened at the Shiniuzhai National Geological Park in China's central Hunan Province. Known as Brave Men's bridge, with 590-feet in height and 984-feet in length, it is the world's longest glass suspension bridge!

According to a report from The Telegraph, the bridge was originally made of wood and then was partly replaced with glass, before the whole bridge was rebuilt this year to make it glass-bottomed

Image via Holiday Me

Now a journey across it is said to be terrifying, despite reassurances that it is entirely safe.The walkway’s 24mm-thick glass panes are 25 times stronger than other forms of glass, allowing it to “stand firm even if tourists are jumping on it”, a worker who built the bridge told the China New Service."The steel frame used to support and encase the glass bridge is also very strong and densely built, so even if glass is broken, travellers won't fall through," the worker added.

JUST LOOK AT IT...

Yes, scream! It's called Brave Men's Bridge for a reason.

Today, the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) announced several standard operating procedures (SOPs) related to the new ruling

In a statement, International Trade and Industry Minister Azmin Ali noted that workers in the public and private sectors, involving management and supervisory levels must work from home, in accordance to the National Security Council's orders. Only a maximum of 10% of employees in the managerial and supervisor level are allowed to work in the office. They must be those working in accounting, finance, administration, legal, planning, and information and communications technology (ICT) departments of their companies.

Ismail Sabri had also previously noted that those working at their offices must undergo a swab test.The Social Security Organisation (SOCSO) will cover the cost of swab tests for both Malaysian and foreign workers. Therefore, it should be free for those involved.

Those working from the office are only given four hours at the workplace

MITI stressed that the people who are allowed to work from the office must only be at the premises from 10am to 2pm.Not only that, they are only permitted to be at their workplaces three days a week.

"Companies do not need to submit an application for this purpose. Employers only have to issue travel letters for their employees who are allowed to work throughout the CMCO period. Employers have to set work from home SOPs that meet their companies respective needs," the statement read.

Siaran Media - MITI bersetuju untuk membenarkan maksimum 10 % pekerja merangkumi antaranya tugasan yang melibatkan perakaunan, kewangan, pentadbiran, perundangan, perancangan dan ICT untuk berada di pejabat yang dihadkan bermula jam 10 pagi sehingga 2 ptg untuk 3 hari seminggu. pic.twitter.com/QQgANoEZ6i— Mohamed Azmin Ali •  (@AzminAli) October 21, 2020

[VIDEO] Woman Rips Off Car's Side Mirror While Man Double-Parks There For Hours

Subscribe to our Telegram channel for our latest stories and breaking news.

The owner of a Perodua Myvi is looking for the woman responsible for dismantling his car's side mirror, allegedly because he double-parked on the side of the road

Taking to public Facebook community group 'Pandan Indah 吹水站', a netizen named Kenneth Chiew said he was surprised to find his car damaged after double-parking in Pandan Indah, Kuala Lumpur on Wednesday, 23 March.In the viral post, he explained that he double-parked — a form of illegal parking under Section 48(1) of the Road Transport Act 1987 — next to a white car belonging to his colleague after he was unable to find a parking spot and had to attend to a work matter urgently.He said he left his contact details on the dashboard before leaving the car.

However, when he came back about five hours later, he found his blue Myvi badly vandalised

Someone had broken all the side mirrors and wipers, bent the exhaust pipe, scratched up the body paint, and threw a broken foam mattress picked up from a dumpster nearby over the top of his car.

Image via Pandan Indah 吹水站 (Facebook)

Asking people around for information, Chiew said a shop owner across the street gave him a video recording of a part of the incident

The 49-second clip shows a woman in a red dress and sunglasses breaking off his car's right side mirror and throwing a broken broom at it, visibly angry.In the Facebook post, Chiew said he did not know the woman and immediately reported the incident to the police. He added that he would like help from the public to find the woman for an explanation.According to his police report, the incident occurred on Jalan Pandan Indah 4/6B while he was away from 2pm to 6.50pm."I admit that I was wrong for double-parking and I have also admitted that to the police," he added. He said the police have discussed issuing a parking summon to him.

Image via Pandan Indah 吹水站 (Facebook)

Ampang Jaya district police chief ACP Farouk Eshak has also put out a statement asking those with information about the incident to come forward to aid in the investigation

According to a media statement, the police said the 21-year-old complainant suffered a loss of RM1,000 due to the damages to his car.The case is being investigated under Section 427 of the Penal Code for committing mischief and thereby causing damage to the amount of RM25 or upwards.

The Facebook post has also since garnered over 1,300 comments and been shared over 3,500 times, with netizens having differing views over the matter

Some agreed that while double-parking was wrong, the woman should not have resorted to such measures."Even if the car owner is wrong for parking like this, she shouldn't have destroyed his vehicle. Whoever destroys property is wrong. If this goes to the police, [I'm sure] the police will also say it's wrong to damage other people's cars," commented a Facebook user.

Image via Facebook

"The white car that he double-parked beside belongs to a colleague, and he left his contact number on the dashboard. If the road was really blocked, a call can be made to the car owner to move his car, instead of damaging his property," said another.

Image via Facebook

Meanwhile, some others were more sympathetic to the woman's behaviour and commented that Chiew's double-parking was the crime in the matter."To be honest, since I can drive, I have never encountered a situation where I had to double-park. It's either I had to go a little further, pay parking fees, or drive two more rounds, there has always been a space," said a netizen."It's already such a narrow road and you double-parked there from 2pm to 6.30pm. Have you ever thought that because of your actions, a two-lane road became a single lane? Do you think you are only blocking your colleague's car? Although I don't agree with the woman's actions, she merely did what many of us would do."

Out of job as the Prime Minister, he is still keeping an active lifestyle

The former premier, whose ruling Pakatan Harapan coalition was recently overthrown by political manoeuvring that had his party Bersatu form an alliance with Perikatan Nasional, wrote that "an active body and good stamina are very important" in order for us to "perform the activities or jobs we want to do".

Image via Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad/Facebook

Dr Mahathir, who is turning 95 soon, was wearing a helmet bearing the emblem of Bersatu. He was accompanied by a number of cyclists.

According to Malaysiakini, one of the cyclists who was seen in the photos with the nonagenarian is Airport Limo chairperson and long-distance swimmer Abdul Malik Mydin.

Saya berbasikal di keliling tasik Putrajaya pagi tadi. Badan yang cergas dan stamina yang kuat amat penting dalam melaksanakan aktiviti atau pekerjaan yang kita mahu lakukan.Posted by Dr. Mahathir bin Mohamad on Friday, 6 March 2020

He resigned from his post on 24 February amidst a political crisis which he said had left him in a position that made it impossible for him to decide. Two days later, the former Prime Minister apologised:

                Tun M Says He Is Not Power Crazy And Will Do What He Thinks Is Best For Malaysia

"Right or wrong, my opinion is that politics and party politics have to be put aside for the time being."

Why Is Milk White?

Milk — the primary source of nutrition for the mammalian infants outside the womb — needs no introduction.
Still, it is an opaque white fluid that's rich in fat and protein.

This bovine juice has 87% water and 13% solids, like fat, proteins, lactose, vitamins and minerals. Of the 13%, about 5% is lactose, 3.7% is fats, and 3.5% proteins.

Image via Imgur

But ever wonder why is milk white?

The whiteness of milk is due to the scattering of light by the colloidal particles of the milk emulsion. Basically, the fats and proteins in milk are what give it the white colour.Chief among these proteins is casein, four types of which make up about 80% of the proteins in milk. Casein is calcium-rich and is the most common protein found in milk.These casein proteins and some of the fats in the milk scatter and deflect light somewhat uniformly throughout the visual spectrum.This, in turn, results in milk being fairly opaque and appearing white to our eyes.

And if you see a blue-ish tinge to the otherwise white milk

It's because it's a fat-free skimmed milk.You see, without the fats, the smaller protein molecules in milk reflect more blue wavelengths of light, which is why skimmed milk can have a slightly blue-ish tinge.

Now you know why

Question
If you have to describe milk as though the person you are talking to has never tasted it before, how would you do it?

You can comment your answers below. :D

While milk is good, drinking raw milk, the Malaysian health ministry has warned, can greatly increase the risk of diseases such as bovine tuberculosis and brucellosis

                Drinking Raw Milk Can Cause These Dangerous Diseases

The health ministry issued the statement yesterday, 20 November.

Hong Kong Govt. And Pro-Democracy Student Leaders Talk Yields No Result

On Tuesday, 21 October 2014, after over three weeks into Hong Kong's pro-democracy movement, the first round of dialogue between the Hong Kong government and student representatives of the movement finally took place, and lasted for about two hours

Leaders of the Hong Kong Federation of Students met government representatives from the territory
Image via vice.com

In a photo call before the talks began, the differences between the two sides could not be more stark. On one side sat the protest leaders - one woman and four men, all in their early-20s and wearing jeans and black T-shirts with the words Freedom Now written in English.

        bbc.com

Across from them sat another group - also consisting of one woman and four men, but decades older, wearing business attire and representing the Hong Kong government. Students versus civil servants. Youth versus middle age. Idealism versus pragmatism. In terms of rhetoric, the students were more passionate and florid, appealing to the public with their arguments about freedom and democracy. The government officials tended to dwell more on legalities.

        bbc.com

Over 2,000 police were called to guard protest sites where the talks, featuring statements from both sides as well as a remarkably civil debate, given the tensions between both the sides, were broadcast live and watched by thousands, Quartz reported

The government side was led by chief secretary Carrie Lam, Hong Kong’s second-in-command; the students were represented by Alex Chow, secretary-general of the Hong Kong Federation of Students (HKFS). Student leaders came across as poised and forcefully confident, accusing pro-establishment representatives across the table from them, who are all decades older, of being cowards.

“We are very angry. We are enraged,” Lester Shum of HKFS said calmly, before explaining that citizens were fighting for their fundamental rights. “I hope the officials have the courage to… rectify all the mistakes they made” he said.

        qz.com

Student leaders at the talks reiterated their demand for an unrestricted choice of candidates in the election for the territory's chief executive in 2017, however, both Hong Kong government and Beijing officials have said this is impossible, BBC reported

Hong Kong’s government seemed to admit they are relatively powerless. Beijing is fully aware of the “divergent views in Hong Kong” on the issue of universal suffrage, Lam, the chief secretary, said. “We created many opportunities for the officials in charge to listen to that view directly,” she said.

        qz.com

Still, in light of the “social campaign with massive scale and far reaching implications,” the Hong Kong government is willing to submit a second report to central Chinese government, she said. The new report would reflect the “strong views, movements and campaigns” going on in Hong Kong, Lam said, but would have no official impact on 2017 elections, based on a five-step process Hong Kong has adopted to elect a chief executive.

        qz.com

After 2017, “depending on the situation in Hong Kong,” the government can officially suggest changes for 2022. Lam also suggested the government may set up a new “platform” to record public sentiments on elections and the democratic process.

        qz.com

The meeting came a day after Chief Executive Leung Chun-ying objected to the protesters' demands, by dismissing public participation when he remarked that a more direct election would skew government policies towards serving poorer residents and neglect other sectors and classes, including the corporate elite

"If it's entirely a numbers game and numeric representation, then obviously you would be talking to half of the people in Hong Kong who earn less than $1,800 a month. Then you would end up with that kind of politics and policies," he said, suggesting that full democracy would compel the candidates to cater to the poor masses.

        vice.com

Leung said problems such as the lack of social mobility and unaffordable housing were "not acceptable", and the government needed to do more to solve them. But he argued that Beijing's position, under which candidates will be screened by a "broadly representative" nominating committee before they go to an open election, was better.

        bbc.com

After the talks student leaders told the crowd that they had no idea what the government was saying, and they're going to remain in the streets, despite orders from the High Court to disperse protesters in Admiralty and Mong Kok, VICE News reported

A crowd in the thousands sprawled across the main protest site in Admiralty, glued to the talks being shown on big screens. The throng stretched several city blocks—a mixture of students, people in suits, and gray-haired citizens who brought their own stools. The animated crowd applauded and booed at different speakers’ remarks.

Hours after the talks ended, student leaders pledged to continue their occupation of major Hong Kong roads. “They want us to give up… It is not what we want and we will continue to stay. Talks today had no concrete response or direction. We will continue to stay here,” Yvonne Leung, one of the student representatives at the talks, told cheering protesters in Admiralty.

PSA: Here Are 7 Things You Should Never Do If You Get Into A Car Accident

Subscribe to our Telegram channel for our latest stories and breaking news.

Whether it's just a small fender bender or a big crash, it's normal to feel shaken after experiencing an accident

When something like that happens, it's important to stay calm and collected, so that you'll be able to take the necessary steps to take care of the situation. This will also help you avoid being taken advantage of or being scammed.

Here are 7 things that you should never do if you find yourself in an accident:

1. Panic and drive away from the scene

Image via MSN

No matter who is at fault, don't just drive off. Make sure all vehicles involved in the accident move to the side of the road, so you can settle the accident together. That way, you're also steering clear of traffic so you won't be at risk of getting hit by other cars.Oh, and don't forget your hazard lights, guys! Turn them on so that the vehicles behind you are aware that your vehicle is a road hazard and they can actively avoid your car.Also, when stepping out of the car to inspect damage or discuss the accident, do not leave your valuables or car keys in the vehicle or ignition. These items could be stolen, especially during heated situations or a commotion at the scene.

2. Forget to exchange important details and information

Image via Money Shake

After a car accident, both parties should always exchange the following information:- Name - Address- Phone numbers- Insurance providers and policy numbers- Driver's license number- License plate number- Location of the accidentExchanging your particulars are important so that either party is contactable if there are any claims to be made.

3. Take longer than 24 hours to report the incident

Image via Flickr

It's required under Malaysian law to lodge a police report within 24 hours of the crash. This is always the best thing to do since all the deets of the accident are still fresh in your memory. Without a police report, you also won't be able to make an insurance claim for your car.When making the report, be as detailed as possible! You may be asked to repeat what happened several times by the police inspector, and that's pretty normal, so don't sweat it (:Any dashcam footage will also constitute evidence, so be sure to hand that over to the police as well.

4. Admit fault on the spot

Image via Freepik

In the heat of the moment, the other driver involved in the accident may try to pin the blame on you and demand repayment. However, even if you are in the wrong, stay cool, and try to remain silent so that no liability falls on your end. Also, it's advisable to not offer any form of compensation.By admitting that it is your fault, it may give the other driver a valid reason to accuse you, bully you, or even send you a ludicrous repair bill the following day. The best approach is to bring the facts to the police station and allow them to process your report.

5. Take too few photos of the vehicles involved and the accident scene

Image via Zeebiz

Regardless of how minor or major the accident was, it is always important to have evidence of the damage. It will come in handy when you're making claims and police reports.So, whip out your phone and start taking pictures of the damage done. Make sure to take photos of all the vehicles involved in the accident, not just your own car. It's important to do this so that the other party cannot try to blame you for unrelated damage to their vehicle. Additionally, if there were any witnesses nearby, you can also take down their contact information. They could help by giving a recount of the accident from their perspective.

6. Accept assistance from random tow-trucks

Image via Queenan Law

It's also very important to not fall victim to tow truck scams after a severe accident. Even you aren't able to drive to the car workshop on your own, never accept assistance from random tow trucks.They charge extremely high prices for their "services". :/Additionally, you should never allow anyone to force you into signing, towing your car, or send it to the car workshop on your behalf. Always call your insurance agent or provider to send help your way!

7. Forget to get in touch with your insurance company

Image via Freepik

Malaysian law also requires every road vehicle to have insurance coverage. Following an accident, your insurance company should be made aware of the situation, so just go ahead and give your agent a call. You should also provide some visual proof of the accident, so the pics you took will definitely come in handy!Your insurance agent should also be able to provide you with advice on how to move on from there: whether you should bear the cost of repairs yourself or if you should make a claim on your policy.Moreover, your coverage will depend on the type of motor insurance policy you purchase, so be sure to buy one that fits your needs.

That's why it's important to choose a reliable insurance provider like Liberty Insurance

Peluh Di Malam Hari & Nafas Pendek, Antara Simptom 'EVALI', Penyakit Baru Disebabkan Vape

Penggunaan rokok elektronik (e-cigarette) atau vape menjadi alternatif untuk perokok berhenti merokok

Image via New York Post

Bukan itu sahaja, tetapi pasaran vape sememangnya tengah laris di pasaran. Siapa sahaja yang menghisap vape akan tampak lebih ‘cool’ mengikuti trend terkini.

Meskipun begitu, adalah dipercayai bahawa mereka yang menghisap vape (bernikotin) boleh sahaja terdedah kepada penyakit-penyakit berbahaya yang turut menjejaskan kesihatan berikutan kandungan cecair vape tidak jelas dan tiada bukti penggunaannya adalah selamat.

Tahukah anda penyakit yang berpunca daripada amalan menghisap vape kini mempunyai namanya tersendiri iaitu EVALI atau e-cigarette atau vaping product use-associated lung injury

Menurut sebuah artikel yang dikeluarkan Scientific American, penyakit EVALI telah meragut 35 nyawa dan menyebabkan lebih kurang 1,600 yang lain dimasukkan ke hospital.

Image via Science News

Bukan itu sahaja, angka kes melibatkan penyakit ini terus meningkat setiap minggu di seluruh negara berkenaan melibatkan 49 negeri.

“Malangnya, semakin ramai dimasukkan ke hospital akibat kecederaan paru-paru setiap minggu,” kata Dr. Anne Schuchat, wakil Pusat Kawalan dan Pencegahan Penyakit (CDC) Amerika.

Penyakit EVALI mula dikenalpasti apabila sejumlah pesakit yang mengalami masalah pernafasan dimasukkan ke hospital setelah menggunakan rokok elektronik

Pesakit-pesakit itu telah dibenarkan untuk pulang setelah mendapatkan rawatan, namun dimasukkan semula ke hospital dalam lima sehingga 55 hari setelah dibenarkan pulang, dipercayai disebabkan paru-paru pesakit yang dilemahkan penyakit EVALI itu atau corticosteroids yang digunakan untuk merawat kondisi tersebut.

Image via BBC

Namun begitu, Anne mendakwa ia berkemungkinan akibat penggunaan semula vape oleh pesakit berkenaan.

Walau bagaimanapun CDC turut mengingatkan petugas kesihatan agar terus berwaspada dengan penyakit flu serta virus pernafasan lain apabila perubahan musim berlaku.

Image via WTVA

Hal ini kerana kedua-dua penyakit itu mempunyai persamaan simptom dengan EVALI seperti nafas pendek, peluh di waktu malam, rendah kandungan oksigen dan kewujudan tompok-tompok pada paparan sinar X paru-paru.

Walaupun punca utama penyakit ini belum dikenalpasti secara jelas, kebanyakan pesakit dilaporkan menggunakan produk mengandungi THC, bahan aktif dalam ganja yang dipercayai menyumbang kepada penyakit berkenaan.CDC juga tidak menafikan sekiranya ia mempunyai lebih dari satu punca.

Berhenti je lah merokok ke vaping ke shisha ke sebab semua itu memudaratkan. Boleh?

9 Breathtaking Islands In The Philippines That Are Absolutely Worth A Visit

If you didn't know already, there are over 7 thousand islands in the Philippines. Although each are unique and beautiful in their own ways, here are a few islands not to be missed!

If you are into white sandy beaches and turquoise crystal-clear waters, you're in the right country. Philippines is made up of 7,107 islands. It's not hard to find your dream beach or a pristine island over there and having it all for yourself.

        justonewayticket.com

1. El Nido, Palawan: Like a real life heaven, it's no wonder that this paradise is voted as the best island in the world

Image via wordpress.com

An island that boasts crystal clear waters, incredible beaches and one of the newest natural wonders of the world has been named the best in the world by readers of a leading travel magazine. The idyllic island of Palawan in the Philippines claimed top spot based on over 76,000 votes in Conde Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice Awards for 2014.

        dailymail.co.uk

If Palawan is indeed "the last frontier" of the Philippines, as it's been dubbed, the coastal town of El Nido is the gateway to wild adventure. Sure, it's got powder-fine beaches and gin-clear waters. But the views are what really sell the place. Off the coast of El Nido are majestic karst limestone formations, empty lagoons, marble cliffs, prehistoric caves and waterfalls.

2. Boracay, Aklan: The party central known for amazing, soft, white sand perfect for dipping your toes in

With endless beaches of powdery-white sand, long happy hours, abundance of restaurants and hotels to suit all budgets, and plenty of watersports, Boracay is the party island.

Its such a paradise setting that Microsoft Windows used a picture of Boracay Island for its ''paradise'' desktop background for Windows 2000.

“SHARK!” If that cry doesn’t drive you away with the fear of Jaws, then you belong right here! Whale sharks, the largest fish on the planet, are sighted every morning off the shores of Oslob town. After swimming with these magnificent giants, stop over at Tumalog Waterfalls for a refreshing dip, Moalboal for diving and Carcar town for Spanish colonial houses, belly-busting lechon (whole roasted pig) and crunchy chicharon (deep-fried pork rind).

4. Panglao Island, Bohol: Home to the incredibly cute Philippine tarsier, this laidback island is favoured by many travellers

        airasia.com

Camiguin has more volcanoes per square kilometre than any other island on earth. And because it’s uncorrupted by large-scale tourism and one of the more tranquil islands around – the 10km waters of Gingoog Bay separating the island from the mainland are partly responsible – those who do come here tend to feel proprietorial about this little jewel and guard news of its treasures like a secret.
