Should an Underage Rapist be Forgiven If He Marries Her After?

Something in the news that came up today that really got me angry. A lot has been written on a case where a man was accused of raping a 13 year old girl in Sabah. Of course we have heard a lot of unnearving cases like this but why this case takes the cake simply because that there is an request for the courts to drop the case simply because the man decided to marry the little girl during the time where he was still charged of the offense.

KOTA KINABALU: He allegedly had sex with a 13-year-old girl and saw no wrong in it.

Riduan Masmud, the 40-year-old who shocked the nation after being charged with raping the minor and later declared that he had married her in the midst of the case, has opened up for the first time on why he decided to take the girl as his second wife.

The restaurant manager defended his action, saying it was a case of suka sama suka (mutual consent), adding that it was acceptable under Syariah law.

I am not sure what is your stand on this matter, but I'm going to say what I think about this.

Workout Ideas: TehTarik 5 Abs Circuit

The one thing that I believe a lot of people would want when ti comes to workouts is to achieve that "washboard" six pack abs that most people would see in magazines. However almost everyone who makes an effort to do it would know that the abdominal area would be one of the most difficult area to work with, especially for the guys.

Similarly with the gang in the gym, at the moment we are trying out a new routine that I would love to share with you guys to see what you think. Our target is to continuously try this out for the next 3 months to see the result behind it and give a month to month update as to how it develops for our body.

Teh Tarik Reviews: Iron Man 3

This is by far the most difficult review I have ever written, just because that I am a little torn on how to comment on the movie. One of the most anticipated movie of the year, obviously there is A LOT of expectation that is put on this movie.

Once again I am given the great opportunity thanks to the good people of Nuffnang to attend a preview screening of a movie franchise that I hold dear to my heart. That is because I am firstly a geeky fan boy of anything Marvel or DC related and its a movie of machines that form a protective armor around your body and kicks ass. What man would not love that?

[ADV] Iron Man 3 : My Way

I believe the buzz that is going around in movie town is the upcoming movie and quite easily one of the most anticipated sequel of the year. I think there is little doubt that most people would be more interested to know more about the armor that Tony Stark will be using especially after the little sneak peak that we have seen with a lot of the different version of the armor being showcased in the trailer.

So the question is, what would my ideal Iron Man suit look like?

The good people of Nuffnang did pose this question to all of us and I have to admit, it is not the first time I actually gave this topic a thought. There are a few things that I would have considered to include in my ideas particularly:

1) Lightweight and Easy to Wear - the one thing I would imagine to improve would be the sheer bulk of the suit itself. Making it light (to the point of it like being a second skin) to the user's body would make it much more flexible to use and in the heat and weather in Malaysia, come at least the user would not suffer from a heat stroke!

2) Far more menacing looking helmet - While the iconic helmet is awesome, I believe that it needs a far more menacing looking helmet which would scare the living bananas off  people on first instance. Of course that would also include all the technology that would be part of the suit itself.

3) Enhanced Super Strength Suit - one of my dream technology to be included in the Iron Man suit is the fact that every movement that you make is enhanced by the suit to make your actions near super human. Which means your movement becomes faster, your punches become heavier, your reactions become quicker and everything else in your arsenal. That way, weapons become secondary to the suit and its only left with a good old fashion clobbering!

So, with these description in mind, I would love to actually have the suit to replicate my descriptions above. Unfortunately I do have one but if the suit above can be a reality, it would look something like this...

#Twinsters : A Real Life Fairytale of Two Long Lost Twins

Sometimes when we grow old, we kinda stop believing in miraculous things in our lives, for whatever reason. I have to admit that I too am guilty of this as well. But recently I came across a story of two ladies which blew my mind.

A real "Parent Trap" story.
