Road Blocks everywhere

Yesterday I was stucked in traffic jam as early as 6.30am at Jalan Seputeh leading towards Federal Highway. I was furious when I finally got to know it was only few police standing by the road side guarding the blocks. They did nothing , basically standing there and enjoy the scene of drivers squeezing into smaller road. Nothing much that we can say as we just merely normal citizen! I believe everybody was very frustrated as most of us are heading to works as usual.

Evening time, as my office located with viewing towards sprint highway and damansara road, traffic started as early as 5pm. Damn! everybody was so frustrated again. End up went for mamak stall dinner with girlfriends.

This morning , I woke up as early as 6.30am to ensure I can escape the jam . Yeah! today is important day for me. I need to go collect my new term study books. Class is next week.
Most people warned me not to go as I will be stucked in road blocks jam again!
I bought that thought for a second. But after deep thinking then I just follow my guts feeling to go ahead and start my journey to mont kiara.

Traffic quiet smooth though. However, traffic at office direction at stand still. I was driving and at same time cracking out my head on which road should I use later on. Finally, made a decision to use LDP/ Puchong way to escape the blocks. Yes!! all opposite direction towards KL or City Centre was at stand still just now.

Manage to reach home by 11.30am as my planned.

Later on, I am heading towards Bandar Mahkota Cheras to meet somebody.
Yes ! as I mentioned just now, today is very important for me.
I am making a big big decision to change my life and destiny.
I am very determined this is the choice that I am going to make.
I want to get out from this plateau life of mine now...
I need to move on and find another challenge to make my life exciting and change my destiny and way to success in life!

I will go ahead with my plan although many will objects to my daring coming BIG commitment.

I failed once 6 years ago. I know how it feel. I know how it hurts me!
I stand back to my feet and maintain low and keep on learning.
Now, I feel I am ready and prepared to rise again and vow not repeat the same mistake again .

My life will change tremendously from now on.

I prepared to face this challenge....

Toonie; Canada 2 dollar coin story

Do you know that there is a coin called Toonie? It is Canada 2 dollar bi-metallic circulation coin which bears an image of polar bear. The name do not came from that polar bear instead come from Canada one dollar coin "loonie". The Loonie name come from The Great Northern Diver (a bird), known in North America as the Common Loon (Gavia immer), is a large member of the loon, or diver, family of birds. The Toonie name come as it is a two dollar coin. Its weight at 7.3 gram, a bit heavy for a coin. Thanks for the hint from The home remodelling for Toonie coin.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Toonie; Canada 2 dollar coin

The Canada 2 dollar coin, commonly called Toonie, was introduced on February 19, 1996 by Public Works minister Diane Marleau. The Toonie is a bi-metallic coin which bears an image of a polar bear, by Campbellford, Ontario artist Brent Townsend, on the reverse. The obverse, like all other current Canadian coins, has a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. It is the only coin in Canada to have the "ELIZABETH II / D.G. REGINA" in a different typeface; it is also the only coin to consistently bear its issue date on the obverse. Canada adopted the patented technology to make these coins from Italy. The engineer, and head of the Italian Mint, Dr. Nicola Ielpo, patented the technology of interlocking two metals in coins in 1990.

It costs 16 cents to mint a Toonie, which is estimated to last 20 years. The discontinued two-dollar bill cost six cents to print and, on average, each bill lasted only one year. When the coin was introduced a number of nicknames were suggested. Some of the early ones included the bearie (analogous to the Loonie and its loon), the bearly, the deuce and the doubloonie (a play on "double Loonie" and the former Spanish doubloon coin).

The name Toonie became so widely accepted that in 2006 the Royal Canadian Mint secured the rights to it. A competition to name the bear resulted in the name "Churchill", a reference both to the common polar bear sightings in Churchill, Manitoba and Winston Churchill.

A failure in the bimetallic locking mechanism in the first batch of Toonies caused some coins to separate if struck hard or frozen. Despite media reports of defective toonies, the Canadian Mint responded that the odds of a toonie falling apart were about 1 in 60 million. It is against the law to deliberately attempt to separate a toonie. Defacing coin currency is a summary offense under the Canadian Criminal Code, section 456.

Hair Colors 2009

Changing the colour of the hair can make the person look really hot and different. The only thing that should be considered while getting the hair colored are the latest trends in colors and the tone of the skin. There are a lot of hair colors which are a fad for women in 2009.

Brunette is best for making a lot of heads turn to your great fashion sense. 2009 has brought the natural look for the hair back. So the people who have stripy, purple or black highlights should really get rid of these colors immediately. Brunette as the base can be teamed up with the golden highlights for the great look for 2009. Dark colors at the under layers and roots of the hair can add depth to one’s hair. Ebony can also be tried as it is one of the hottest colors for the year. Dark black colour compliments beautifully with the fair skin of yours and make you lively in the dull winter time too.

Red remains much-loved in 2009 also. Warm red shades give the newest look this year. Base of hair should be intense for adding dimension and depth to the hair and can be teamed up with golden hair.

You can inculcate different multiple shades with the natural blonde to look natural and stylish. Painting the hair with deep chocolate brown can also make your stand out of the crowd.

Treasure hunting; Klaus Keppler uncovered Forbes vessel

Have you done any treasure hunting before? Most people do treasure hunting for gold artifact. Do you know that you can do a treasure hunting using Google Maps? Google Maps have given the ability to virtually anyone to have eyes across the globe and conduct research into specific points of interest before launching a treasure hunting expedition. This has made it infinitely easier for treasure hunters to do extensive research previously impossible to do without physically going to the specific point of interest, and saved the real life treasure hunters much time and money, even providing for a new level of safety to be incorporated into treasure hunting expeditions.

I read many story about people doing their treasure hunting around this world. Yesterday, I found a story about Klaus Keppler who founds a kilograms of different kind of silver coins in a 10th century wreck ship, the Forbes. The British vessel sailed the seas under a commission from the British king, a kind of pirate with a royal permit. It ran aground on a reef off Belitung island, between Borneo and Sumatra, en route to India on Sept 9, 1806.

Treasure hunter Klaus Keppler has uncovered cannons and priceless china from ship wrecks in the ocean

In the lore surrounding hidden treasures, the gods often see fit to subject the treasure hunter to a long quest before he finds the objects of his desire. Treasure hunter Klaus Keppler knows that only too well. For years, the owner of a salvage company has been looking for the wrecks of ships that had been carrying gold, silver or china. Now, after a long dry spell, he got lucky. Twice.

An old cannon

Salvage works being carried out aboard a wreck.

Keppler - who has recovered a 10th-century wreck and the Forbes, a British vessel that ran aground in 1806, off Indonesia – contentedly surveys his treasures in a Jakarta port storehouse, holding up a huge lump of silver coins.

"Hurry up, this thing is incredibly heavy," the 70-year-old German urges a photographer but with a big smile on his face.

The divers of his salvage ship, the Maruta Jaya, have recovered many kilograms of silver coins from the Forbes as well as cannon, gold jewellery, crystal, silverware and 400 bottles of wine.

"Those gentlemen on board knew how to live well," he says.The many different coins will sell well, he believes, spinning a large one between his fingers: "One coin can be worth between US$50 dollars and several thousand."

This is even more so the case if the history of the artefact is known. Keppler hired a young man to scour archives around the world for information about the Forbes.

The vessel sailed the seas under a commission from the British king, a kind of pirate with a royal permit. It ran aground on a reef off Belitung island, between Borneo and Sumatra, en route to India on Sept 9, 1806.

Captain Frazer Sinclair and his crew survived. The Mampango reef was only charted five years later.

Upstairs in Keppler’s storehouse, four archaeology students measure, photograph and describe every recovered coin and enter the results in a databank.

"Everything gets documented," Keppler says. Officials from various Indonesian ministries who must accompany every search trip make sure that no treasures are squirreled away.

The Indonesian state receives 50% of all revenues derived from the treasure hunts in its territory. While it is rumoured among treasure hunters that some officials are not adverse to cutting individual deals, the searchers also eye each other with mistrust.

"Eighty per cent are scoundrels and mountebanks," Keppler says.

Apart from the revenue, Indonesia’s interest is limited, as is obvious with the second wreck Keppler found in a depth of 50 metres off Java island, says Horst Liebner, an expert on Malay culture and history.

"The Karawang wreck is from the10th century," Liebner says. "In Germany, such a find would be a sensation, but in Indonesia, not a single archaeologist stopped by to have a look.

Liebner dated the wreck with the help of Chinese lead coins from the Ming dynasty, which fell in 947. Divers also recovered vases, ewers and plates. "It’s a time capsule," he enthuses.

So far, the treasure hunters have not become rich. The flotilla of salvage ships, equipment, divers and storage all needed to be financed in advance, long before any promising finds were on the horizon. Therefore, investors attracted by a sense of adventure are welcome.

But occasionally there is a wreck that fulfills the treasure hunter’s hopes. "We checked out about 70 wrecks here, but only five of them are probably worth it," Keppler says.

The money only starts coming in when a buyer is found. Keppler’s team is in negotiations with Chinese museums over the Karawang treasure, which he hopes will bring in €1.4 million (RM7 million dollars) with salvage costs amounting to €600,000. The Forbes might prove more profitable, netting €5 million to 10 million, with €400,000 in salvage costs.

"There are more than 30 million coin collectors worldwide," says Keppler. But in the end, he is in it for the search – his eyes already set on future wrecks to be discovered.

I always wish one day I can make my treasure find using Google Maps. Just look at the open sea on the maps and wish that I can find that treasure. I want to know how it felt recovering kilograms of silver coins, cannon, gold jewellery, crystal, silverware , chinaware and other artifact treasure. Some says you need at least half a million Euro dollar to start a treasure expedition. Sometimes you don't gain anything from that expedition. Almost the same thing with my coin hunting trip. Sometimes I come back from my coin hunting trip empty handed. Do you always browsing the world with Google Maps? Don't forget to look at the open sea, who know one days this kind of treasure will be yours.

Feel free to make comment and share your story on Google Maps and Treasure Hunting.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here is the story about Guam that I found in usmint website:

The Guam quarter is the third in the 2009 District of Columbia and U.S. Territories Quarters Program. Initial Western contact with Guam occurred when explorer Ferdinand Magellan reached the southernmost Mariana Islands in 1521. From 1668 to 1815, it served as a way station for Spanish Acapulco-to-Manilla ships. Spanish rule of Guam came to an end when American forces secured the island during the Spanish-American War. During World War II, the Japanese seized Guam and occupied it for more than two years, with American forces recapturing it in 1944. Under the Organic Act of 1950, the people of Guam became American citizens and established a local government.

The Guam quarter reverse design depicts the outline of the island, a flying proa (a seagoing craft built by the Chamorro people), a latte stone (an architectural element used as the base of homes) and the inscriptions, GUAM and Guahan I Tanó ManChamorro, which means "Guam - Land of the Chamorro." The proa represents the endurance, fortitude and discovery of the Chamorro people. The vessel, made by expert carvers and sailed by master navigators, is admired as a technical marvel. The latte speaks to a historic icon that hails from the Micronesian area. Chamorro is one of the official languages of Guam, and its usage is enjoying a renaissance there and on the Mariana Islands.

Guam Governor Felix P. Camacho solicited and reviewed reverse design narratives from the public, narrowing hundreds of submissions down to two – the outline of the Island of Guam with a flying proa and latte stone and a flying proa at sail, a coconut tree bending toward the water and Two Lovers Point in the background. These narratives were forwarded to the United States Mint for the production of artistic renderings, which were then proposed to the territory. Through a public vote, the island, flying proa and latte stone design was recommended for the Guam quarter, and the Secretary of the Treasury approved it on July 31, 2008.

Kids Project; UK one pound coin

Today project is UK one pound or pound sterling coin. Kids Project is a suggestion from me, the best and cheap way to start collecting coin for your kids. This hunting project for your kids will only cost around 50 to 100 ringgit and you do not need to start with a big budget. You can give them a small budget every month and go out together for their coin hunting trip. Some of my Kids project you do not to start with any budget at all. Most of them is a circulation coin that you can find in your pocket. Just make sure every coin that they collect come with a story for your kids to appreciate them more.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here are some story I found about British UK one pound in Wikipedia:

The circulating British one pound (£1) coin is minted from a nickel-brass alloy of approximately 70% copper, 24.5% zinc, and 5.5% nickel. The coin weighs 9.50 grams (0.34 oz) and has a diameter of 22.50 millimetres (0.89 in.). The coin was introduced on 21 April 1983 to replace the Bank of England one pound note, which ceased to be issued at the end of 1984 and was removed from circulation (though still redeemable at the Bank's offices) on 11 March 1988. It was given the nickname "round pound" on introduction, although this term did not remain in common use.

The £1 coin has the standard obverse designs used on all contemporary British coins, namely the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II by Arnold Machin in 1983 and 1984, by Raphael Maklouf between 1985 and 1997, and by Ian Rank-Broadley since 1998. All have had the inscription ELIZABETH II D G REG F D date.

Uniquely amongst modern British coinage, the £1 coin has a mint mark: a small crosslet found on the milled edge that represents Llantrisant in South Wales, where the Royal Mint has been based since 1968. An interesting feature of this denomination is that the design of the reverse of the coin changed each year between 1983 and 2008 to show, in turn, an emblem representing the UK, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and England, together with an appropriate edge inscription.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What I like most in UK one pound is that it comes with incuse lettering or decoration on the edge.

Edge inscription: DECUS ET TUTAMEN ("An ornament and a safeguard" – originally on 17th century coins, this refers to the inscribed edge as a protection against the clipping of precious metal. The phrase may be part of a line from Virgil — "viro decus et tutamen in armis" (Aeneid, Book V, L. 262), describing a shirt of golden chainmail awarded as a prize to Mnestheus.)

Edge inscription: NEMO ME IMPUNE LACESSIT ("No-one provokes me with impunity" – the Latin motto of the Order of the Thistle).

Edge inscription: PLEIDIOL WYF I'M GWLAD ("True am I to my country" – from the chorus of the Welsh National Anthem).

Interesting.. I was looking back at all my photos, this is the only photo without me showing my outstanding big front teeth..lol! even my mykad and passport photo can see my front teeth..

Look quite sad though.. yeah! this because I am going off to sit for exam right after the photo hehehe yeah ! still can take photo eh?

I just love doing all this crazy stuff to make me happy a bit. For this case I am sitting for my Competitve Strategy paper , you think I still can be showing my teeth??

Now since the exam is over.. I still can't enjoy my break period since my new study term starting. Very fast! I have 4 more papers to go..
I just downloaded my new subject online readings and maybe will print tomorrow.
My next class is next week.

I have been in a sleepless night these days due to doing too much of thinking.
Yeah! again me and my looking forward to the future.
Very nervous on what will happen next ...

How nervous I am waiting on what is my destiny is how nervous I am when I am waiting for my dominos pizza to be delivered to me just now.
Although I can just waited for half and hour , I end up open my door every 10 minutes. Afraid to miss my pizza due to my door bell not working :)

Yeah ! good dinner tonight due to just scold my bankers this afternoon. These days I found out, I need to use my firm voice and stern face to get thing done!
Not usual for me because I will only use that to the last and very very last resort.
I am normally prefer to solve the problem rather than make an enemy (make people feel hurt or uncomfortable). But hey! sometimes need to harsh to get thing done and teach them lesson.

I just can't stand people take me for granted!

Talking about my future I am now really firm on what I am putting myself into and just want to go ahead with it!
As how I made my decision to pursue my MBA this is how my decision towards this coming plan!

Jia You! Jia You! Rina ... I can do it!!!!
