Hair Iron

As my hair is getting longer, it has gotten unruly, because the curly part is pushing the straighten hair into the curly direction. So no longer a "fawhawk" but "out of bed". Its not that bad, but it gotten me thinking of getting a hair iron. Hair iron is just two pieces of heated plates that can go up to 210 degrees Celsius (water boils at 100 Celsius okay) and used to iron your hair flat. I used to have one, this really cheap ass iron, that is kinda scary to use, because I am afraid it might melt or electrocute me, but it really does work for my brother, I just don't know how to use it on my curly hair. Perhaps more YouTube videos would help me

 

This is brand new type whose iron actually rotates and while a pair of brushes, align your hair correctly.

 

This is the traditional ones with a ceramic plates.

 

 

 

As I was reading about the ceramic plates, I found out that ceramic plates naturally release negative ions. Negative ions is apparently very good to hair because it keeps it from going unruly. Some hair dryers also have negative ions built in it to prevent frowziness. Then it hit me. OMG, this is something from the Electrostatic show! We have this experiment in the Electrostatic show, that we never get to do often, because it requires a volunteer with dry loose movement hair. We take a balloon and rub it against the hair, the hair will stuck to balloon because we transfer all the positive charge from the balloon to the hair and the hair repels each other and sticks to the nearest thing with some negative charge which is the balloon

 

So bad hair day is caused by built up of static electricity in your hair, so those negative ions in hair irons and hair dryer will maintaining good hair.

 

 

 

You know what I thought, I was like, this could be a science show!, I could bring a hair iron on stage and casually iron my hair in front of the audience and pretend nothing is happening. Its so random and so strange but it helps me to explain the things in life that is related to static electricity. Okay... I think too much about work...

 

 

Stages

I am going to one heck of transformation stage in life now. Its as dramatic as how the picture above depicts what happens to black hair when it is bleached or how the yellow blonde shade is achieved (it takes about 2 strong bleaching processes). I bought the bleaching kit, and the highlighting cap. I turned on my Petrosains charm and got the tool to be used with the highlighting cap for free. I will upload more nonsense to this blog so all my blog hopper and surfer will have something to hop or surf on.

If I Were the Green Hornet

Write a blog post titled “If I Were the Green Hornet”, and tell us what you would do to stop crime.

Whoa... the Green Hornet. I saw the trailer of this movie and I immediately want to see it. Seth Rogen as Britt Redi and a big name from Taiwan, Jay Chou plays as his sidekick Kato. Seth Rogen looks great in this film, he lost weight just for this film because it will fit the character better. Even better, he does not mind if he gained weight after filming, because he feels comfortable being a chubby bubbly guy. Damn the guy has a lot of positive vibes leaking out of him  Jay Chou, I thought he looked familiar, I knew he was multi talented artist, but it totally went over my head that he was the main actor in Initial D (but I haven't even seen Initial D the movie...gotta get the DVD now..)

What I did not know about this movie is, that the story of The Green Hornet, started out as a radio show in January 31, 1936. When Malaysia was Malaya, a British Colony, before World War 2, before Japanese invaded Malaysia, before the rise of Communism, before Singapore separated from Malaysia and before Nuffnang existed!!!.

The Green Hornet story was incarnated into various forms, in movies and TV shows. When it was incarnated into a TV show in the 60s, the late Bruce Lee, played Kato. Whoaaa, how awesome is the history of this movie. However one thing that remain certain was the usage of the car that was called Black Beauty

Alright back to the original idea of this blog.

"Write a blog post titled “If I Were the Green Hornet”, and tell us what you would do to stop crime"

Well, the Green Hornet is kinda like Batman, Green Arrow and other DC or MARVEL characters that do not have any superpowers but they are bloody rich, fit, good looking and want to fight crime at night. When do they actually sleep anyway?. Anyhow if I were bloody rich, fit, good looking and want to fight crime at night, I have to do something that I can do and that I am doing now.

No.. not whine or complain how sucky life is but use my knowledge in parasites to developed my own weapons to fight crimes

I keep my genetically modified parasites (GMP) inside mice.

The GMP will multiply into millions of GMP 

A tissue cyst containing  GMP that can be introduce to the food and water they drink. Another form called oocyst which is a dry sporozoite form can be used in bullet shells to disperse my GMP

Instead of taking days to infect, my GMP will instanly infect the person exposed to it

 All if is left is one chunk of meat that can be disposed in a bag

 We all need our costumes to protect our identity. True its not original. but can you detect me in the various labs, hospitals and universities in the world?

 Also, don't forget a sidekick. Every superhero needs a side kick to things such as  taking a photo of us in our next experiment

Its true though, I do look like an evil genius bent on ruling the world (oh what a wonderful feeling that is) but just like the Green Hornet movie, you have to break the law to protect it, a vigilante that works outside of the judicial system.

Bad Ass Parang that Chuck Norris would approve

My mother called me to come home early because she needed to pick up my dad from the airport. So I came home, early, which is rare, since I usually come home when the sun sets (I came in late, so I will leave late, but that is kinda redundant now really). I was parking in front of my house but it was difficult because the tree branches makes it hard to park close to the shoulder road. So I asked my mother for a "parang" and what a bad ass parang it was. I am not what parang is in English. Knife is pisau, Sword is Pedang, Keris is.. well keris, Parang? long sword? Macheti?

Regardless of what, this is one bad ass parang for having the correct balance, and weight. It did help when I started started a spark when I accidentally hit the wall behind the branch, however most importantly, what parang has a bottle opener built in the blade. This is the parang Chuck Norris would use.

Accidents Happens

Accidents increased tremendously during any public holiday's in Malaysia, but peaked during Chinese New Year and Hari Raya because the public holiday is longer and more people are on the road.

However the picture above was taken at the gold course in UPM during the fasting month. Its quite baffling how the Mercedes got into this predicament. The driver was driving on grass, not on the paved road, not even on the paved golf cart road. To the left of the car is actually the paved road. I just don't understand how could they missed it? A thief joy riding? A drunken golfer? Who knows....
