Insurance man claims albino crow brings him luck
From: The Star
MALACCA: Black crows which are a common sight are often shunned as dirty and unlucky, but an albino crow has brought luck to its owner. Insurance agent Winston Tan has kept a snow-white albino crow sporting a pink beak and red eyes in his house since three months ago. He had chanced upon two adult crows trying to teach the albino chick how to fly. “The chick dropped to the ground and I brought it back,” he said, adding that he fed the bird with earthworms, crickets and sometimes even small lizards.
Tan recalled that he was even “attacked” by the two black birds when he went to pick up the albino chick. Today, the albino bird has learnt to fly by itself. “Occasionally, I will let the bird out of the cage to fly freely in the room,” said Tan. Tan said that on one occasion, he had forgotten to close the window and the bird flew away. “To my surprise, it flew back into the room,” he said. Tan did not mind the bird's return. He said that the bird had been a lucky charm ever since it joined the “household”. “I have won a small amount of money through lottery since I reared this bird,” said Tan.

Safety Tips for Girls
I got this article from my wushu (martial arts) trainer. In light of the recent kidnapping and now murder of women these days, I think it is important to read the following info for your own safety.
Things women should know to stay safe: Please take the time to read these pointers. There may just be one or two you hadn't thought of.
After reading this, send it to someone you care about. It never hurts to be careful in this crazy world we live in.
1. Tip from Wushu: The elbow is the strongest point on your body. If you are close enough to use it, do it!
2. If a robber asks for your handbag, DO NOT HAND IT TO HIM. Toss it away from you…. he is probably more interested in your handbag than you and he will go for the handbag. RUN LIKE MAD IN THE OTHER DIRECTION!
3. If you are ever thrown into the boot of a car: Kick out the back tail lights and stick your arm through the hole and start waving. The driver won't see you but everybody else will. This has saved lives.
4. Women have a tendency to get into their cars after shopping, eating, working, etc., and just sit (doing their cheque book, or making a list). DON'T DO THIS ! A predator could be watching you, and this is the perfect opportunity for him to get in on the passenger side, and attack you. AS SOON AS YOU GET INTO YOUR CAR, LOCK THE DOORS AND LEAVE.
5. A few notes about getting into your car in a car park:
A.) Be aware: look around you, look into your car, at the passenger
side floor, and check the back seat.
B.) If you are parked next to a big van, enter your car from the
passenger door. Most attackers surprise their victims by pulling them into
their vans while the women are attempting to get into their cars.
C.) Look at the car parked on the driver's side of your vehicle, and
the passenger side. If a male is sitting alone in the seat nearest your
car, you may want to walk back into the shop, or work, and get a
guard/policeman to walk you back out. IT IS ALWAYS BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN
SORRY. (And better paranoid than dead.)
6. ALWAYS take the lift instead of the stairs. Stairwells are horrible places to be alone (and the perfect crime spot.)
7. If the predator has a gun and you are not under his control, ALWAYS RUN! The predator will only hit you (a running target) 4 in 100 times; and even then, it most likely WILL NOT be a vital organ. RUN!
8. As women, we are always trying to be sympathetic: STOP IT! It may get you raped, or killed. Ted Bundy, the serial killer, was a good-looking, well educated man, who ALWAYS played on the sympathies of unsuspecting women. He walked with a cane, or a limp, and often asked "for help" into his vehicle or with his vehicle, which is when he abducted his next victim.
9. Another Safety Point:
Someone just told a lady that her friend heard a crying baby on her porch the night before last, and she called the police because it was late and she thought it was weird. The police told her 'Whatever you do, DO NOT open the door." The lady then said that it
sounded like the baby had crawled near a window, and she was worried that it would crawl to the street & get run over. The policeman said, "We already have a unit on the way, whatever you do, DO NOT open the door.
"He told her that they think a serial killer has a baby's cry recorded and uses it to coax women out of their homes thinking that someone dropped off a baby. He said they have not verified it, but have had several calls by women saying that they hear babies' cries outside their doors when they're home alone at night. Please pass this on and DO NOT open the door for a crying baby.
I'd like you to inform this to all the women you know. It may save a life. A candle is not dimmed by lighting another candle. I was going to send this to the ladies only, but guys, if you love your mothers, wives, sisters, daughters, etc., you may want to pass it onto them, as well.
Send this to any woman you know that may need to be reminded that the world we live in has a lot of crazies in it and it's better safe than sorry. The above is directed at women but remember, guys you may also be targeted the same way or your girlfriend/wife .

One in 10 Young Girls Have Eating Disorders
On the contrary to what I wrote in Food, Malaysia! Food! the other day about overall Malaysians loving our food. This is a social crisis! Young girls are starving themselves to look thin! And it's not because they are poor have no money to spend on food, but just to look as thin as those celebrities/ models they idolize on TV and Magazines!
What The Star wrote today:
*note: if you have no time to read all the words, points of seriousness are in red. KUALA LUMPUR: Walk into any urban campus and there will be hordes of young girls who are slim and dressed in clothes that reveal their figure. Being thin is in and many are dying to be thin. They want to emulate weight-conscious celebrities like Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan. And this is one of the reasons for a rising problem among young females - eating disorder. About 70% of them are not satisfied with the shape - and size - of their bodies. In a study conducted by chartered psychologist Dr Hera Lukman, it was revealed that about one in 10 young urban female college students is prone to eating disorders in their quest for a perfect body shape.
Dr Lukman, a senior lecturer at the Faculty of Medicine at the International Medical University’s (IMU) Community Medicine and Behavioural Sciences Section, conducted the recent survey among 578 female college students aged between 18 and 25 in the Klang Valley. Although there are signs that this problem is on the rise, there has been no study to determine the number, as those suffering from the problem rarely seek help voluntarily. Nevertheless, Dr Lukman said studies have shown that the prevalence of eating disorders in Asian countries was comparable to that in the West, where between 1% and 4% of girls aged between 14 and 18 have an eating disorder. In Singapore, a National University of Singapore’s (NUS) study of 4,400 female students in 2005 also showed that 7% of them were found to be at high risk of disorders like anorexia and bulimia. Penang Hospital’s child and adolescent psychiatrist Dr Lai Fong Hwa said there was a six-fold increase in the incidence of eating disorders in Singapore in the last 10 years. On her survey, Dr Lukman said those affected were usually terrified of gaining weight though they were underweight or emaciated. “The students in my survey had, among others, displayed behaviour, attitude and thoughts which were associated with eating disorders. Only 28% of them were satisfied with the shape of their bodies,” she said in an interview. The two most common eating disorders are anorexia nervosa (when one engages in self-induced food restrictions and excessive exercise although underweight) and bulimia nervosa (uncontrollable overeating or bingeing, followed by self-induced vomiting and purging via the use of laxatives). The medical fraternity usually terms them as a “complex psychological problem” with “possible indirect links” with the environment. Dr Lukman said interviews with some of the respondents revealed that they would induce vomiting after eating. Some of them would feel guilty about eating and subsequently resort to eating in isolation or “secretive eating”. Dr Lukman added that eating disorders were chronic conditions with devastating physical, psychological and social consequences when not given immediate attention and multi-disciplinary approach treatment by experts like physicians, psychiatrists, dieticians and family therapists. The dangers of eating disorders usually make headlines when a celebrity or prominent figure dies from it. In November last year, Brazilian model Ana Carolina Reston, 21, was reported to have died of anorexia nervosa. She was 1.74m tall and weighed only 40kg when she died. Many Tinseltown celebrities like Nicole Richie and Mary-Kate Olsen are constantly under the media glare for losing weight and looking unhealthily thin. On treatment for eating disorders, Dr Lukman said Malaysia has yet to have a centre for such patients and she had to refer her patients for treatment overseas, with the nearest centre in Singapore. There was dire need for such a centre to provide proper and affordable treatment for eating disorders and conduct more in-depth research on the problem. She said patients could not seek treatment overseas due to the high costs incurred. Dr Lai said it costs about RM1,000 a day for an eating disorder patient to get treatment in Singapore. The high cost of treatment was because of the number of professionals involved in the care. “If Malaysia were to set up an eating disorder centre, treatment would still cost a few hundred ringgit a day, although patients who seek help at government hospitals at the moment are treated free,” he said. “The problem in Malaysia may not be as serious (compared to Singapore), but I am seeing and hearing of more such cases these days,” he said. She said it was also difficult to identify a person with eating disorders, especially Asians, because the females tend to be thinner and have a smaller frame. Countries where eating disorders are common include Japan, South Korea, Thailand, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, India, Pakistan, Egypt and Israel, she added. Dr Lukman said eating disorders are more common among females than males. For every 10 to 20 females with eating disorders, there would be one male with similar problem.
Isn't this just sad? What's the use of bearing so many varieties, colours, and flavours of food when all you want to do is to starve and look like a skeleton!!???
Please, people, take your food. If you are scared of being fat, then take less amount of food (and I don't mean literally), have plenty of sleep, drink plenty of water, and exercise! That way, not only you'll look like Eva Longoria, you'll beam like her too.

Roti Canai
Today I shall teach you decent folks on how to make your very own Roti Canai. I think most Malaysians already know the ways, but heck, just post it anyway. You can never know who lurks out there with no Roti Canai making skills (like me!) heheheh…
Ok here's what you need:
600g Plain Wheat Flour
1tsp salt
1cup warm water/ milk
1/2cup ghee / margarine
1 egg
1 tsp sugar
How to do it:
- sift the flour and salt together
- knead flour, egg, sugar and ghee with water/milk (a little by little so that the dough is moderately soft and easy to handle.)
- leave 2-3 hours overnight
- divide dough into 4 equal parts
- shape them into balls
- flatten each ball with rolling pin and fold in the ghee /margarine.
- roll up the dough and press it into a coil. Pressing one open end onto the top.
- roll it again as thin as possible into a round shape.
- Beginning at one of the open ends, roll up dough tightly and coil it again as before.
- Roll out dough slowly onto lightly floured surface (to ensure air is not forced out).
- Heat a pan and bake individually over a moderate heat.
- Turn it over and spread a little ghee on it until both sides are golden brown.
There you go! Your own Roti Canai! Oh when you serve, remember to serve with curry to give the extra spicy taste.

And The Truth Says…
If you are aware of the recent murder trial of Altantuya, here's what that made to The Star's front page today.
SHAH ALAM: Abdul Razak Baginda and C/Insp Azilah Hadri planned the murder of Altantuya Shaariibuu before the police officer carried it out with his subordinate Kpl Sirul Azhar Umar, the High Court here was told.
The prosecution, in kick-starting the much-awaited murder trial yesterday, said it would prove this as well as all events leading to it through direct evidence and circumstantial evidence.
In his opening statement, DPP Tun Abdul Majid Tun Hamzah said the prosecution would produce evidence to show that Abdul Razak, 47, had known the deceased since 2004, and frequently met her and gave her money during the course of their relationship.
'Mrs Razak Baginda' Mazlinda Makhzan accompanying her husband political analyst Abdul Razak Baginda into the Shah Alam High Court for the Altantuya Shaariibuu murder trial Monday. She and her family members wore white T-shirts which spelled out their relationship with Abdul Razak in a major show of support for him. - AZHAR MAHFOF / The StarDespite ending their relationship in August 2005, the political analyst continued to give money to the Mongolian translator whenever she asked for it until early 2006 when he started declining her demands.
As a result, the Mongolian beauty hired a private investigator to track down Abdul Razak and came to Malaysia several times to demand money from him.
On arriving in Kuala Lumpur on Oct 8 last year, the 28-year-old Altantuya tried in vain to meet Abdul Razak who refused to see her.
In desperation, she left several notes for Abdul Razak, including a threat that his daughter would be in danger if he did not give her money.
The political analyst then hired a private investigator to trail Altantuya and also watch his house to prevent her from harassing him but despite all his efforts, the harassment and threats continued.
Tun Abdul Majid said that upon confiding in a senior police officer friend about his problems, Abdul Razak was advised to lodge a police report in view of the serious threats.
However, the political analyst did not do so and in turn, asked his friend to keep whatever he told him a secret. Abdul Razak then met C/Insp Azilah at his office at the Bangunan Lembaga Getah Asli on the morning of Oct 18 after his friend gave him his number.
Tun Abdul Majid said the evidence would show that C/Insp Azilah, 31, and Abdul Razak planned Altantuya's murder together and a few hours after their meeting, the officer, together with Kpl Sirul Azhar, 36, went to Hotel Malaya where Altantuya had been staying.
He said a note seized from C/Insp Azilah's office, which had the deceased's name written on it in addition to her address and phone number as well as the name of Abdul Razak's private investigator, would be tendered as part of the evidence.
In addition, the prosecution would also produce evidence to show that Altantuya had gone to Abdul Razak’s house on the evening of Oct 19 last year and the political analyst, on learning that she was there, asked the private investigator to “entertain her until his men arrived.”
Subsequently, Abdul Razak contacted C/Insp Azilah, who later came to his house in a car with Kpl Sirul Azhar to take Altantuya away.
The two policemen were the last people seen with the deceased.
According to the opening statement, Altantuya might not have been shot dead before she was blown up with explosives, as widely believed.
Tun Abdul Majid said evidence would be adduced to show that the deceased's cause of death was “probable blast-related injuries”, which means she may have died the cruel death of being blown up alive.
Altantuya, in a police report lodged some eight hours before her disappearance, had stated that if anything were to happen to her, the police should look for someone named “Razak Baginda.”
Apart from that, the prosecution would also rely on a confession made by Kpl Sirul Azhar to his superior, and also on some items belonging to the deceased found in his house for this case.
In addition, a pair of bloodstained slippers was also found in the corporal's car, and a DNA test concluded that it was the deceased's blood.
Tun Abdul Majid said that it was C/Insp Azilah who led police to the crime scene.
The two policemen are charged with jointly murdering Altantuya between 10pm on Oct 19 and 1am on Oct 20, 2006 at Lots 12843 and 16735 in Mukim Bukit Raja, Shah Alam.
Abdul Razak, who is accused of abetting them, had his charge amended yesterday to having committed the offence between 9.54am on Oct 18 and 9.45pm on Oct 19 in 2006 in the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur.
In the original charge, he was accused of committing the offence between 9.54am and 11.05am on Oct 18 at Level 10, Bangunan Getah Asli, 148, Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur.
Horrible. Horrible.
