Einstein, The Smallest Foal In The World – Photos

This is Einstein, the smallest baby horse in the world.

Einstein was born on Friday April 23, 2010 at Tiz Miniature Horse Farm in Barnstead, New Hampshire.

Einstein is only 14 inches high and weighs only 6 lbs.

The 3 day old Einstein is shorter than a 1 year old baby 🙂

I think Einstein will grow up to a maximum of 70cm high.

Ways To Heal Our Earth

• Stop the wars because the wars destroy trees, buildings, animals, humans and caused pollutions and wars can destroy our Earth.

• Stop doing all the things that can harm our Earth.

• Plant lots and lots of trees.

• Use organic farming to reduce pollution.

• The government should find ways so that everybody can use solar energy for electricity.

• Invent transports that do not cause pollution maybe we can use solar energy.

• Plant lots of trees around factories to reduce air pollution.

• Stop building factories around lakes, rivers or sea and houses.

• Do not produce too much things to reduce industrial waste.

• Do not use dangerous chemical in factories.

• Stop demolishing buildings that are still strong and safe because we cause pollution during demolishing and we need a place to throw the rubble. When we build a new building we’ll need new bricks, glass, steel and wood and cause more damage to the Earth.

• Clean up the rubbish around us.

• Clean the polluted rivers and lakes. Take out the rubbish and treat the water.

• Recycle, reuse and reduce doing things that is bad for our environment.

• Show the people what will happen if we do not heal our Earth. Even littering can cause a disaster.

• Stop smoking because it causes air pollution just like factories. If someone want to smoke they should only smoke in a cave deep in the jungle.
  

Stop Destroying Our Earth

People like to do things that harm the Earth.

Wars, cutting down trees, littering, polluting and forest fire are some of the things that harm our environment.

Cutting down trees especially on the hillside caused landslide that will push down new trees and that tree will push down other trees; so more and more trees will be pushed down.

I think it is like playing domino; when we push down one tile, it will push down another tile and more tiles will fall down.

Littering can cause flash flood when the rubbish block the drain; the flood will damaged buildings and plants and caused water pollution and leave rubbish everywhere.

Industrial wastes from factories cause water pollution, air pollution and toxic rain.

Cars, trucks, buses, ships, boats aeroplanes and other vehicles caused air pollution.

In the cities there are lots of buildings and vehicles but not much trees.

And we are also using too much fuel energy.

We cause global warming and global warming causes disasters that destroy the Earth.

Kerepok Lekor Recipe In Photos

On Saturday, my mother made kerepok lekor.

Kerepok lekor is a special food from Kuala Terangganu.

Kuala Terengganu is my parent’s hometown.

In Kuala Lumpur people do not sell fresh kerepok lekor.

So if we want to eat fresh kerepok lekor, we have to make them ourselves.

What we need to make kerepok lekor:

• A bowl of fish.

• A bowl of sago.

A bowl of sago

• Some water.

• Salt.

How to make kerepok lekor:

1. First blend the fish without the bones.

   

   Blend the fish

2. Mix the fish, sago and salt.

3. Shape them so they become long cylinders.

   

   Shape them

4. Boil them until cooked.

   

   Tadaa! Here is my mother's tasty kerepok lekor!

   Note: I snapped all of the photos above (except the last one) myself 🙂

Earth Day

Earth Day

Today is Earth Day.

Earth Day was founded by U.S. Senator Gaylord Nelson as an environmental teach-in held on April 22, 1970.

It is to remind us to take care of our Earth and save the Earth.

People have been destroying the Earth by littering, cutting down trees, killing wild animals, starting

forest fire and causing pollution as in Micheal Jackson’s Earth Song video clip.

War is another disaster that destroy the Earth.

We have to stop destroying our earth.

We have to stop global warming too.

We have to plant new trees, recycle, reuse, use organic farming to plant fruits and vegetable and stop the war.

We have to heal the world and make our Earth clean and beautiful.

European Airspace Opens But Passengers Are Still Stranded

My father’s friend, Mr Steve McEwan still cannot get back to United Kingdom.

But the airspace is already opened.

Please click for European airspace developments as of 1942 GMT April 21, 2010.

The earliest he can fly home on Emirates airline will be on April 30, 2010.

His actual flight was on April 16, 2010.

He had been stranded in Kuala Lumpur for 7 days and has to wait for another 8 days to fly home!

The volcanic ash from under the Eyjafilljallajokull glacier caused European airspace to be closed for 5 days.

So, when the airspace is open on Wednesday millions of people tried to get home.

It needs a lot of plane trips to get everybody home.

So some stranded passenger are still stranded even when the European airspace is now opened.

This is a disaster especially to the stranded passengers.

Amazing!

So far nobody knows when will the eruption stops …

I hope that there will not be a bigger eruption.

Ash covers the grounds on the farms around the Eyjafilljallajokull glacier.

The farmers have to work hard to clean their farms.

The ash can be dangerous to the farmers and their animals.

In some places people have to wear masks and glasses.
