True Love Comes Without Words

TALKING TOO MUCH ABOUT LOVE MAY ULTIMATELY END UP WITH INVITING DISASTER WHEN YOU CAN'T FULFIL YOUR TOO MANY PROMISES In a small town, there lived a man — let’s call him Mark. He’d been married for years to a woman he no longer loved. He and his wife stayed together “for the kids” and… because of the mortgage. They had a big house with a long-term loan — splitting it was almost impossible. And since the place was spacious, they simply lived next to each other. Two adults under one roof. Like neighbors. Mark had gotten married very young. Later he realized that the feelings had faded. His wife — Emily — wasn’t exactly a model. She had gained weight, stopped taking care of herself the way she used to, shuffled around the house in an old robe and worn slippers. She always looked tired… or irritated. Her life was endless work for low pay, grocery bags, laundry, cooking, kids. Even her voice annoyed him — he repeated that to himself often. And Mark? He brought home a paycheck, sighed he...

Puasa Itu Indah — Penawar Segala Duka

Lapar Itu Bukan Musuh, Lapar Itu Ubat Ramai orang takut lapar. Bila perut mula berbunyi, kita cepat-cepat cari makanan. Tapi jarang kita sedar… pada saat kita menahan diri daripada makan, tubuh sebenarnya sedang melakukan kerja paling hebat untuk kita. Ada satu proses hebat dalam tubuh yang dipanggil autophagy. Maksudnya mudah — tubuh “makan” dan kitar semula sel-sel yang rosak, sel pra-kanser, protein yang tak berfungsi, malah sel penuaan yang dah tak berguna. Fenomena ini mula mendapat perhatian dunia selepas Dr Yoshinori Ohsumi, saintis Jepun, memenangi Hadiah Nobel Perubatan 2016 hasil kajian beliau. Beliau jelaskan, selepas 12 jam kita tidak makan, tubuh mula masuk mod pembaikan survival — dia berhenti bergantung pada gula dan mula membakar lemak sebagai tenaga. Masuk jam ke 16, autophagy bekerja penuh: membersih, membuang toksin, logam berat, sel rosak, dan segala sampah sel yang terkumpul. Kesannya luar biasa: # Sistem imun diperbaharui. # Peradangan berkurang.  # Hormon per...

US rapper sentenced to 14 years in jail for funnelling Jho Low’s money to Obama campaign An American rapper has been handed a 14-year jail sentence for illegally funnelling money from fugitive financier Jho Low to former president Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign, The Edge Malaysia reported on Friday, 21 November 2025. Prakazrel “Pras” Michel of the hip hop group Fugees declined to address the court before US District judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly sentenced him, the   Associated Press   reported. Michel, 52, will appeal his conviction and sentence, his lawyer was cited as saying by the newswire. The 14-year sentence is “completely disproportionate to the offence”, Michel’s defence attorney Peter Zeidenberg was quoted as saying. Just last month, Michel was ordered to forfeit about US$65 million (RM269.4 million) to the US government after he was found guilty in the case linked to the 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) scandal. Michel was a founding member of the Fugees t...

Malaysia tempat "para pendusta berkuasa", kata Zaid Ibrahim

Bekas menteri undang-undang Datuk Zaid Ibrahim menyifatkan kejadian semalam, di mana perjuangan seorang wanita beragama Hindu, anaknya dilarikan suami yang memeluk agama Islam selama lebih satu setengah dekad, sebagai satu kegagalan keadilan. “Indira, saya telah mengikuti dan menyokong kes kamu sejak 2009, dan dukacita saya maklumkan bahawa kita telah kalah,” katanya dalam satu hantaran di X malam tadi. Dakwa Zaid lagi, seperti dilapor portal berita Malaysiakini , negara ini bukanlah tempat keadilan diperjuangkan sebaliknya tempat “para pendusta berkuasa”. “Hanya kerajaan yang percaya kepada keadilan mampu mencari penyelesaian, tetapi kita tidak mempunyai kerajaan sedemikian,” tambahnya. Zaid turut hadir dan berucap pada perhimpunan di luar Sogo semalam bersama Kulasegaran, peguam Datuk S Ambiga dan aktivis Puan Marina Mahathir. Dalam ucapan ringkasnya Zaid turut menyuarakan keraguannya terhadap sistem keadilan yang ada dan menganggap isu antara ibu dan anak atau masalah keluarga dilih...
