A TOTAL of 2,058 incidents of violation of Malaysian airspace by Singapore air force aircraft were recorded by the Defence Ministry since 2008.- aiyaaa!!Cloves (Syzygium aromaticum)
BITE into the pint-sized clove and get ready to be stung by its assertive flavour, which leaves a numbing sensation in the mouth.
Cloves can be used whole or in its ground form, lending its charm and warmth to masalas and curry powders, to five spice powder, berbere and baharat.
Cloves are derived from dried flower buds of the clove tree which is a small tropical evergreen plant of the Myrtaceae family.
The tree is native to the Maluku islands now part of Indonesia and chartered its way around the world through the spice trade of yesteryear.
Because of its origin in Indonesia, cloves are a common feature in South-East Asian cuisine as well as other cuisines around the world.
Good quality cloves have reddish brown stems and a lighter crown, rough to the touch and should snap cleanly.- mak kata, mamah cengkih every morning..tak termasuk suh mamah jintan hitam lagi..aiyooo!
Lepas tuh, baca review movie..
Red
[Grade: N/A]
Earlier this year we had aged action stars coming together in The Expendables. Now here’s yet another film in which the cast is made up of, erm, somewhat senior citizens. But surprisingly, Red is quite fun despite (or is it because of?) the age factor.
There’s Bruce Willis, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich and Helen Mirren playing retired agents who are forced back into action – and these characters wield awesome weaponry and blow up people right on target. Yes, Helen Mirren, the Oscar-winner!
In one of the most surreal scenes, the actress – wearing a white dress (looking like the royalty that she is) – lets loose hundreds of bullets from this massive machine gun like it’s the most natural thing for her.
Who would’ve thought she’d be at ease playing a government agent who remains extremely dangerous even though she’s retired?
If Mirren is watchable, Malkovich is pretty funny playing a paranoid man with a penchant for military camouflage. He may be a bit over-the-top, but the way Malkovich delivers the lines in that clear, sane voice only magnifies the fact that his character is a tad crazy.
There are no surprises where Willis is concerned, making the most of his character’s solitude man act.
Red also features Mary Louise Parker, as a bored woman who gets involved with these retired agents by chance.
While her role is obvious – as the person who clues the audience in on who’s who and what’s what – Parker must be credited for giving the role a touch of freshness. Similarly, Karl Urban is effective in his role.
While the cast is great, the film is far from perfect: there are plenty of moments when the plot and character development are skating on dangerously thin ice.
The goings-on will have us going “seriously?” a couple of times, made worse with an utterly boring villain.
The script is mediocre, featuring an awful “Grandpa” running joke. But when a film has Mirren playing against type and features Ernest Borgnine it’s definitely worth a watch. Getting soft in the old age maybe is not so bad. – Mumtaj Begum- cite ni to me OK la.. lama dh tak tgk Bruce Willis in action.. the latest Die Hard movie pun tak tgk...
Ok, got to prepare for class.
