On Monday, May 20, 2013 a huge and powerful tornado rated at EF4 on the Enhanced Fujita Scale, with winds up to 200 miles per hour, struck the Oklahoma City suburb of Moore causing massive destruction.

At least fifty-one people were confirmed dead, twenty to thirty school children were still missing and feared dead beneath the rubble while lots of people were injured.

A spokeswoman for the National Weather Service Storm Prediction Center said that the devastating, mile-wide tornado touched down at 3:01 p.m. local time (4.01 p.m. EDT).

According to the National Weather Service in Norman, Oklahoma, the tornado was on the ground for approximately 40 minutes, and a tornado warning was in effect for 16 minutes before the twister developed.

It was reported that the devastated area covered thirty square miles and some area look like a war-zone with blocks of houses, buildings, farms, trees and other structures were knocked down by the tornado.

The mayor of Moore, Glenn Lewis told NBC:

“The whole city looks like a debris field. It looks like we have lost our hospital. I drove by there a while ago and it’s pretty much destroyed.”

Blocks of homes were leveled by the powerful tornado, cars piled atop one another and some buildings were on fire.

Among the buildings destroyed were the Plaza Towers Elementary school and Briarwood Elementary School while Moore Medical Center sustained significant damage.

Most of the injured were brought to the Integris Southwest Medical Center, University of Oklahoma Medical Center, St. Anthony Healthplex South and Midwest Regional.

The National Weather Service predicted a 10 percent chance of tornadoes in parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri and Illinois.

It also said parts of Wisconsin, Indiana, Michigan and Iowa have a 5 percent risk of tornadoes.

The area at greatest risk includes Joplin, which on Wednesday will mark two years since the tornado that killed 161 people.

On Sunday, tornadoes killed two people and injured 39 in Oklahoma.

Richard Silver’s photos of the world’s biggest sights are special because he uses artistic visual constructions like the combinations of sharpness and blur.

He wrote that, “By employing techniques such as Tilt Shift, HDR, Vertical Panoramas and Time Slice, this allows me to grow as a photographer while exposing our everyday world in an altered visual context.”

Silver says:

“People always ask me, How do I make people look so small or why do I make people look so small? Simple, WE ARE. In the big picture we are just a small blip of what the world truly is. I enjoy the power I have to change the perspective of the way people look at the world and maybe at themselves.”

Multiple people were killed Wednesday as a spring tornado outbreak devastated parts of North Texas.

At least ten tornadoes hit north Texas killing at least six people on May 15, 2013.

Seven people were missing while about fifty people were injured in Granbury.

According to the National Weather Service, another tornado about a mile wide tore through Cleburne, Texas, about 25 miles southeast of Granbury.

This is a disaster.

I am sad and sorry for the families and friends of the victims.

SUARAM’s candlelight vigil at Esplanade, Penang. (The photo is from Generasi Pejuang Bangsa/ GPB).

Suara Rakyat Malaysia’s, (SUARAM) Candlelight Vigil was held at the Esplanade in Penang on May 13, 2013.

(sejarahmelayu.blogspot.com/2013/05/hot-melayu-pr-ppinang-engkar-fatwa.html)

I would like to say three things about the above picture:

1. There is a man wearing Muslim attire in the photo - Didn’t he knows that Muslims should not join Candlelight Vigil?

2. The candles on the ground forms the sentence, “TOLAK RASISM!!!” - Who are they referring to?

3. The second banner from left says; “APA WE MAO? Bersih Lah” - Why did they use the word ‘MAO’ when they should know that the right word in Bahasa Melayu is ‘mahu’; so they actually humiliates the Malays, especially when the word ‘Mao’ is synonym to Mao Zedong, a communist leader from China.

GPB wrote that:

“Turut hadir beberapa anggota Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN), termasuk (Sungai Puyu) dan Dr Afif Bahardin (Seberang Jaya).”

I am sad to see Muslims who do not understand that Muslims cannot take part in any Candlelight Vigil activity and PAS who supports SUARAM does not care to warn the PR’s Muslims about this.

(e-fatwa.gov.my/fatwa-kebangsaan/hukum-penglibatan-orang-islam-dalam-aktiviti-candlelight-vigil)

And in referring to them using the word ‘MAO’ instead of ‘mahu’, I want to ask SUARAM, now who are the ones who are actually racist?

It is easy to say bad things about others but it is hard to admit our own mistakes and for SUARAM, they are always perfect and like all the PR leaders, members and supporters – BN is never right and they would try to blame BN for whatever mistake that they ever made. 

 Muzakarah Jawatankuasa Fatwa Majlis Kebangsaan Bagi Hal Ehwal Ugama Islam Malaysia Kali Ke-88 yang bersidang pada 2 Oktober 2009 telah membincangkan Hukum Penglibatan Orang Islam Dalam Aktiviti Candlelight Vigil. Muzakarah telah memutuskan bahawa:

1. Islam melarang umatnya daripada terlibat dalam apa jua amalan yang bersifat ritual atau upacara agama bukan Islam.

2. Umat Islam dilarang menyertai aktiviti Candlelight Vigil kerana ia mengandungi unsur-unsur tasyabbuh dengan agama bukan Islam yang akan menjejaskan akidah umat Islam.

There is a nice restaurant made of ice in Dubai called Dubai’s Chillout Cafe, which is the first “ice lounge” in the Middle East.

Even the chairs, tables and curtains in the restaurant are carved from ice.

It is -6 degree celsius in there and before you get in, you must wear thick and fluffy winter jackets.

I do hope that I could visit the restaurant

UNTUK PERHATIAN : EDITOR BERITA
13 MEI 2013/3 REJAB 1434H

Saudara/Saudaraku semua salam perjuangan, salam kegemilangan dan salam sejahtera

PRU13 telahpun sempurna, tanggungjawab selaku pemilih kerajaan telahpun kita laksanakan. Kerajaan pusat telah terbentuk cuma sebahagian kerajaan negeri masih belum membentuk pasukannya.

Rumah sudah siap pahat masih berbunyi. Pasca PRU13 masih ada yang tidak berpuashati. Itulah adat dalam pertandingan, kadangkala ada yang sukar menerima kekalahan hingga menggamit penyokongnya untuk berbuat sesuatu walau ianya boleh menggoyah kestabilan Negara serta memberi kesan jangka panjang kepada rakyat secara tidak langsung. Bagi calon sebegini. Apa aku peduli yang penting matlamat aku tercapai.

Kesan dari PRU13 banyak yang perlu kita hayati. “Red Bean Army” pasukan cybertroopers DAP yang dibiayai oleh kerajaan negeri Selangor dan Pulau Pinang dengan anggota tetap 200 orang dan sukarelawan sokongan mencecah hampir 2000 orang telah Berjaya mencapai matlamatnya. Mereka dilatih untuk menjalankan cyber-war kearah mencapai matlamat DAP. Fitnah, hasutan, attacking sesiapa yang menyokong kerajaan malah membunuh industri kepunyaan orang melayu juga sebahagian dari matlamat mereka.

Apakah matlamat sebenar DAP. MENDAPATKAN KUASA UNTUK MEMERINTAH, MEMUSNAH SERTA MENHANCURKAN MELAYU, MEMECAHBELAHKAN MELAYU SEHINGGA ORANG MELAYU LEMAH, MENJADIKAN ANWAR SEBAGAI PEMEGANG WATAK BUYUNG DIDALAM FILEM SARJAN HASSAN MENJADI PM BONEKA DAP.

Kesan dari psy-war yang telah digerakkan oleh “Red Bean Army” DAP itu amat besar sehinggakan sebilangan besar rakan-rakan kita dari bangsa cina terperangkap dengan budaya kebencian, perkauman yang tinggi serta hilang kepercayaan kepada kerajaan yang sedia ada. Dan kesannya juga menular pada sebahagian kecil bangsa melayu.

Amalan tidak sihat ini amat besar kesannya kepada perpaduan kaum yang dipupuk sejak sekian lama sehingga menjadikan Malaysia Negara contoh kepada negara membangun yang lain.

Justeru itu, bagi menyerang balas dan menhancurkan kembali hasrat kotor DAP serangan balas melalui taktik kepenggunaan amat berkesan.

Sehubungan dengan itu, setelah diperhalusi sebaik dan sebijak mungkin salah satu cara mudah tetapi berkesan untuk dilaksanakan bagi mengekang DAP dan Anwar dari terus manghasut rakyat serta DAP memperalatkan orang cina untuk mendapatkan kuasa taktik MEMBOIKOT SEBAHAGIAN PRODUK KELUARAN ORANG CINA AMATLAH BERKESAN. JUSTERU ITU SOKONGAN SERTA KERJASAMA DARI NGO SAUDARA AMAT KAMI HARAPKAN.

Diantara asas pemboikotan sebahagian dari produk yang kami pilih adalah seperti berikut :-

1. Pemilik syarikat mempunyai sikap yang anti kepada kaum melayu dan islam
2. Pemilik syarikat menghina orang melayu dan islam
3. Pemilik syarikat penyumbang besar kearah menjayakan aspirasi DAP sebagai pemusnah kesejahteraan dan kemakmuran yang rakyat miliki kini
4. Pemilik syarikat menyalah gunakan subsidi kerajaan untuk kuntungan peribadi
5. Pemilik syarikat tidak menitik beratkan soal halal dalam produk mereka

Diantara produk yang kami pilih untuk DIBOIKOT oleh seluruh rakyat Malaysia adalah seperti berikut :-

Bagi merealisasikan hasrat ini kerjasama dari NGO yang Saudara pimpin amat kami harapkan.

Sila war-warkan perkara ini kepada semua ahli kita mulakan boikot produk diatas bermula hari ini.

Kejayaan pemboikotan ini adalah ditangan Saudara-saudara yang kami kasihi.

Sekian

Terima kasih

Prime Minister Najib Razak answered:

“Mereka bawa cerita kononnya kita mengimport 40,000 Mat Bangla untuk mengundi dalam pilihan raya. Kalau nak bawa 40,000 Mat Bangla, sebuah Jumbo muatannya 400 bererti 100 buah Jumbo terpaksa mendarat di lapangan terbang. Saya nak tanya kepada pembangkang, tunjuk di mana ada 100 buah jumbo yang telah mendarat di lapangan terbang kita.”

But PM Najib did not know that Anwar had found out BN’s secret …

TADDAAA! This is how BN flew in the “Banglas” to Malaysia from Bangladesh (Image from Pisau.Net)

But after I saw the photo, I’m scared if there will be Banglas falling down from the sky and worst if there will be a rain of Mat Banglas …

Even PAS politicians are fighting for the post too.

Uncle Jinggo in his blog, Minaq Jinggo posted the below photos proving PAS’s politicians are after the Menteri Besar post.

But Ampang’s Member of Parliament , PKR’s Zuraidah Kamaruddin claimed that the MB post belongs only to PKR – Please click here.

So, can we trust PAS’s Mustafa Ali’s statement saying that PAS is not after the MB post?
