The Night Is Still Young

It was 10.10pm 22 August 09....which was less than 2.5 hrs ago...i was hungry....so went down to mamak shop...thank God found a place to sit...so happen MU vs Wigan live...there were a lot of people...ordered nan kosong and milo kosong...the food took quite some time to arrive...but it didnt seem long as my eyes were glued on the screen...thats because my favourite team MU is playing...

anyway, my food soon came...ate while watching...i watched til almost half-time...then i went back...unfortunately, MU havent scored yet...so have to read the STAR tomorrow to know the results...hopefully they score... * must pray harder...haha...*

anyway, as i was walking back to my condo...i walked pass two guys...1 of them must be a die-hard MU fan...simply because he shooked his head in great disappointment as if he lost all hope to survive when Rooney's strike was saved by Wigan's keeper...it was quite an amusing sight...I

so when i reached my room...i decided to take pictures of the view from the balcony...the sky was clear ...so KLCC was easy to spot...unfortunately, KLCC is very small as i used my camera phone...

the question is...can you spot KLCC though it is easy to spot??? =P

Closer to you

This is one of my favourite song from Mark Schultz. The songs says that we are getting closer to Him everyday. Even in the storm, Abba Father will help us pull through.

Closer to you

Mark Schultz

Closer to me I'm tired and I'm weak
And every breath within me is longing just to be
Closer to You
So I face the road ahead
Cause I know there's no comparing
To what's waiting at the end

So let the rain start falling where it will
And I will run through this valley
Just to climb to that hill
And if they ask why I'm smiling
After all I've been through
It's cause I'm just a day closer to You

Closer to me I hear You whisper on the wind
You say although my life is ending
A new one will begin
Closer to You
And I know I'm not alone
Cause I can hear You in the distance
Saying, you are nearly home

So let the rain start falling where it will
And I will run through this valley
Just to climb to that hill
And if they ask why I'm dancing
Though my days may be few
It's cause I'm just a day closer to You

Closer to me You're in the laughter and the tears
Of the ones I leave behind me
Who have prayed me through the years
Closer to You
And I know it won't be long
Till You're running down the pathway
Just to take me in Your arms

So let the rain start falling where it will
And I will run through this valley
Just to climb to that hill
And if they ask why I'm singing
Though my life's almost through
It's cause I'm just a day closer
I'm just a day closer
I'm just a day closer to You

How To Survive An Air Crash?

MYTH: It Doesn't Matter Where You Sit

"One seat is as safe as the other." -Boeing Web site

"It's an age-old question. There's just no way to say." -Federal Aviation Administration spokesman

"There is no safest seat." -airsafe.com

REALITY: It's Safer In the Back.

The funny thing about all those expert opinions: They're not really based on hard data about actual airline accidents. A look at real-world crash stats, however, suggests that the farther back you sit, the better your odds of survival. Passengers near the tail of a plane are about 40 percent more likely to survive a crash than those in the first few rows up front.

That's the conclusion of an exclusive Popular Mechanics study that examined every commercial jet crash in the United States, since 1971, that had both fatalities and survivors. The raw data from these 20 accidents has been languishing for decades in National Transportation Safety Board files, waiting to be analyzed by anyone curious enough to look and willing to do the statistical drudgework.

And drudgework it was. For several weeks, we pored over reports filed by NTSB crash investigators, and studied seating charts that showed where each passenger sat and whether they lived or died. We then calculated the average fore-and-aft seating position of both survivors and fatalities for each crash.

We also compared survival rates in four sections of the aircraft. Both analytical approaches clearly pointed to the same conclusion: It's safer in the back.

In 11 of the 20 crashes, rear passengers clearly fared better. Only five accidents favored those sitting forward. Three were tossups, with no particular pattern of survival. In one case, seat positions could not be determined.

In seven of the 11 crashes favoring back-seaters, their advantage was striking. For example, in both the 1982 Air Florida accident in Washington, D.C., and the 1972 crash of an Eastern 727 at New York's Kennedy Airport, the handful of survivors were all sitting in the last few rows. And when a United DC-8 ran out of fuel near Portland, Ore., in 1978, all seven passengers who died were sitting in the first four rows.

Oddly, the five accidents that favored front-cabin passengers all occurred between 1988 and 1992. In the 1989 United DC-10 accident in Sioux City, Iowa, for example, the majority of the 175 survivors sat ahead of the wing.

There was just one crash in which passengers in the front had a pronounced survival advantage. The only two fatalities in a 1989 USAir runway accident at LaGuardia were both sitting in Row 21 in the 25-row Boeing 737-400.

Where detailed seating charts were available, we also calculated survival rates for various parts of the passenger cabin. Again, the trend was clear: The rear cabin (seats located behind the trailing edge of the wing) had the highest average survival rate at 69 percent. The overwing section had a 56 percent survival rate, as did the coach section ahead of the wing. First/business-class sections (or in all-coach planes, the front 15 percent) had an average survival rate of just 49 percent.

So when the "experts" tell you it doesn't matter where you sit, have a chuckle and head for the back of the plane. And once your seatbelt is firmly fastened, relax: There's been only one fatal jet crash in the U.S. in the last five-plus years.

In conclusion, dont get first class or business class seat. Be humble and get a plane ticket of the normal class. Haha...Since every cloud has a silver lining, getting a normal class ticket too has its silver lining. You are more likely to survive a (of course, far be it!!!) plane crash...=P
