At my age, I am experiencing proliferation of grey hair and slower hair growth.
I have always not been fond of my hair which is think and coarse.
Recently, my hairstylist introduced me to this seemingly silver bullet - Kerastase DENSIFIQUE SÉRUM JEUNESSE - Hair Youth Activator Serum which claims to be able to help with all my problems - I was skeptical though but I purchased it to try out at the cost of RM 300 per bottle.
After one month, I found it to work wonder.
It is able to promote fast hair growth, somehow reduced grey hair and the best part is it soften my coarse hair.

WWF: Deforestation is Continuing at An Alarming Rate
Towards the end of 2014, Malaysia's State of Kelantan experienced the biggest flood disaster ever since 30 years or more. Although it was a result of unusual heavy rainfall, it was likely exacerbated by the extensive loss of forests which in turn accelerated the sedimentation of rivers due to surface runoffs from extensive land clearing.
Forests, being the largest terrestrial storage of carbon and the third largest source of carbon emissions after coal and oil, play a vital role in the fight against global warming. Forest lost contributes up to 20% of global carbon emissions - more than the total emissions of all the cards, trucks, trains, planes and ships in the world combined. Climate change in turn may damage forests, for instance by drying out tropical rainforests and increasing fire damage on the forests.
Situated in Northern Perak, Belum-Temengor is approximately 130 million years old and is thought to be one of the oldest rainforests in the world. Encompassing an area of about four times the size of Singapore, it is one of the only three priority sites for tigers under the National Tiger Conservation Action Plan for Malaysia.
The Belum-Temengor forst is also home to all 10 hornbill species found in Malaysia and is an important habitat for large mamals such as the Malayan tiger, gaur, sambar deer and elephant. The only permanent human inhabitants within Belum-Temengor are the indigenous Orang Asli.
However, at the moment, only Roayl Belum State Park has been gazetted as a protected area, whilst Temengor Forest Reserve is still designated for logging.

Holiday season is looming ....
2014 holiday season is looming and the mood is already here...
People are taking 'mandatory' annual leaves all over the place.
I went to Amway (Jalan 223)to collect items, but was met with too big a crowd and too slow the processing - seems like the workers have gone on mandatory holiday.
Anyway, what I saw over there was 1Malaysia - national unity - nobody actually complains.
Happy festive season to you all!!!

Buddhism on the human origins and the creator
In the Buddhist sutra (增一阿含經 (CN) ; Ekottaragama-sutra (EN) ), it is mentioned indeed human origins was heavenly beings.
http://www.fomen123.com/fo/fojiao/yuzhou/9569.html
Also it is mentioned about the creator.
http://www.fomen123.com/fo/fojiao/yuzhou/9612.html
In nutshell (based on the text as spoken by Lord Buddha), the universe was subjected to big-bang creation after which the old world (previous universe) was subjected to destruction, nonetheless, the destruction left out certain realms and one of such is known as the 光音 heaven which was where human origins came from.
After the destruction of the previous world, the big-bang happened and earth was created along with the sun, moon and other planets known and unknown to modern science.
Heavenly beings from 光音 heaven whose heavenly life had almost come to an end, were lured by the virginity of planet earth and decided to come forth to venture out of the heaven.
Once they settled, they found themselves trapped and unable to go back and hence lived on.
According to the text, all human ancestors came straight from 光音 heaven were light skinned color and today's human complexion was a result of different lifestyles, mindsets, influence from the weather and other factors.
When our heavenly human ancestors came to earth, they were greeted by a god (大梵天王) who told them that "I have no creator, I am hence natural,the creator of the universe and parents to all beings".
Please don't take my word for it, go read the text and do your own research.

Responsibility is a BIG word
According to a report by USA Today, Park Geun-hye proposed to disband the coast guard after their seemingly failure to respond to the ferry disaster that left more than 300 people dead or missing.

Eyes Wide Shut: MalayMailOnline: MCA told to shut up
Eyes wide shut...
Not being appreciated and respected, was humiliated instead.
This is a good case study - at the end of the day, even own partners will look down on you, despise you.
Eyes wide shut - it is so obvious but yet you couldn't see.

Don't you feel heavy holding this bucket ?
Someone told me this story yesterday.
A man approached his teacher and started complaining non-stop, he kept on and on, the teacher listened and didn’t attempt to interrupt him. At one point, the teacher gave him a bucket full of water. Without much hesitation, the man took the bucket, holding it and kept on complaining.
Not long after that, the man was exhausted and slowed down, the teacher intervened and asked “don’t you feel heavy holding this bucket full of water ?” The man replied “Yes, very heavy.” The teacher said “ then why don’t you put it down ?”
From then on, the man put down all his sufferings and continued with life.

Li Ka-Shing Teaches you how to survive
http://mirror.e27.co/li-ka-shing-teaches-buy-car-house-5-years/
1.) No matter how much you earn, always remember to divide it into five parts proportionately - living expenses, socializing, education, holiday and investment. Suppose your monthly income is only RMB 2,000, you can live well. I can help you put money into five sets of funds. The first $600, second $400, third $300, fourth $200, fifth $500.
2.) Being able to smile when being slightly misunderstood is good upbringing. When you’re wronged and you smile with calmness, it is generosity. When you’re being taken advantage of and you can smile, you’re being open-minded. When you are helpless and you can do a philosophical smile, you’re in a calm state. When you’re in distress and you can laugh out loud, you’re being generous. When you’re looked down and you can calmly smile, you’re being confident. When you’re being jilted in relationships and you can smile it off, you’re being suave.

Plant reaches out for the sun
Plants will stretch out for the sun.
Notice that the edged-out parts were motivated by the sun - the plant is positioned in a place where sunlight doesn't cover the whole area all time time.

WWF: You May Be The Orang-Utan's Last Hope
The orang-utan is the largest arboreal (tree-living) animal in the world. They spend most of their time in trees - feeding, sheltering and travelling through the forest canopy.
Fossil records show that orang-utans have been on this earth for more than 800,000 years and populations once spread from China to as far as Sulawesi. Today, Borneo and Sumatra are the only two islands in the world that are supporting natural orang-utan populations numbering about 55,000.
Maintaining natural forests with viable wild breeding populations and restoring degraded forests is vital for the continued survival of orang-utans in Malaysia.
Facing threats such as logging, forest fires, degradations; orang-utans may suffer further decline due to poor habitat.
Hence, the Sabah's government's initiative to retain the largest orang-utan population in Ulu Segama-Malue Forest Reserves under protection status deserves a worthy acknowledgement and support.
