Minggu lepas, NKF(National Kidney Foundation of Malaysia) datang ke office utk check tekanan darah serta ujian darah utk kolestrol dan glucose. Disebabkan NKF ni badan kerajaan gak so bayaran utk buat ujian tu semua tak mahal hanya rm2. Itupun company yg bayar!! Memula tu excited gak sbb dah lama tak buat blood test dan tekanan darah ni. Tapi bila dapat hasil memang terkejut. Ukh..ukh..kolestrol ku tinggi!!Jangan tak caya jumlah kolestrol 7.95 mmol/L. Kiranya nak sedapkan hati mungkin kolestrol tinggi sebab pagi sebelum buat test ni ada amik sarapan yang mempunyai kolestrol tinggi iaitu kuning telur dan makanan bergoreng. Sepatutnya kalau nak test darah harus berpuasa. Untuk lebih puaskan hati so gi lah jumpa doktor kat klinik. Dierr suruh datang keesokan harinya dan start pukul 11mlm kena start puasa. Esok harinya pergi lah buat blood test kat klinik. Then doktor tu suruh datang minggu depan untuk amik result.

Result Dari NKF

Hari ni dah genap seminggu dan dah tiba masanya untuk pergi amik result kat doktor. Hati tu memang rasa berdebar2 mana taknya kolestrol tinggi ni tak leh buat main2. Kesan dierr pada jantung. Bila dah doktor bagitau result, memang terkedu. Doktor tu sendiri tak percaya. Dierr kata, " You're still young but your cholestrol very high. Your total cholestrol is 7.0 mmo/L and LDL cholestrol(kolestrol jahat) is 4.89 mmo/L. You not smoking and I don't know what have to do with you. Kemungkinan juga berkaitan dengan masalah penyakit usus yg itu hadapi sekarang ni" Lepas tu dierr suruh start amalkan diet dan exercise selalu. Nampaknya lepas ni tiap2 pagi sebelum pegi keja kena bersenam dulu dan kena ambil makanan yg kurang kolestrol. Doktor tu tak berani nak bagi ubat sebab usia kira muda lagi nak dapat kolestrol tinggi ni so kena jumpa dierr lagi 6 bulan akan datang utk test blood semula. Kebetulan 2 member opis pun buat test blood. Dua2 pun join the club sbb kolestrol tinggi.

Result Dari Klinik

Bila terbaca posting pasal kolestrol kat blog uncle Zabs, dierr pun mengalami masalah yang sama dan mungkin sekarang kolestrol dierr dah rendah. Advice utk semua orang pergilah check kolestrol sebelum terlambat. Macam slogan kat bawah ni,

"Mencegah Itu Lebih Baik Dari Merawat"

What Is Cholesterol?

• Cholesterol is a waxy, fat-like substance that is found in all cells of the body. Your body needs some cholesterol to work the right way. Your body makes all the cholesterol it needs.
• Cholesterol is also found in some of the foods you eat.
• Your body uses cholesterol to make hormones, vitamin D, and substances that help you digest foods.

• Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is sometimes called bad cholesterol.
  • High LDL cholesterol leads to a buildup of cholesterol in arteries. The higher the LDL level in your blood, the greater chance you have of getting heart disease.
• High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is sometimes called good cholesterol.
  • HDL carries cholesterol from other parts of your body back to your liver. The liver removes the cholesterol from your body. The higher your HDL cholesterol level, the lower your chance of getting heart disease.

What Is High Blood Cholesterol?

Too much cholesterol in the blood, or high blood cholesterol, can be serious. People with high blood cholesterol have a greater chance of getting heart disease. High blood cholesterol on its own does not cause symptoms, so many people are unaware that their cholesterol level is too high.

Cholesterol can build up on the walls of your arteries (blood vessels that carry blood from the heart to other parts of the body). This buildup of cholesterol is called plaque (plak). Over time, plaque can cause narrowing of the arteries. This is called atherosclerosis (ath-er-o-skler-O-sis), or hardening of the arteries.

The illustration shows a normal artery with normal blood flow (Figure A) and an artery containing plaque buildup (Figure B).

Special arteries, called coronary arteries, bring blood to the heart. Narrowing of your coronary arteries due to plaque can stop or slow down the flow of blood to your heart. When the arteries narrow, the amount of oxygen-rich blood is decreased. This is called coronary artery disease (CAD). Large plaque areas can lead to chest pain called angina (an-JI-nuh or AN-juh-nuh). Angina happens when the heart does not receive enough oxygen-rich blood. Angina is a common symptom of CAD.

Some plaques have a thin covering and burst (rupture), releasing fat and cholesterol into the bloodstream. The release of fat and cholesterol may cause your blood to clot. A clot can block the flow of blood. This blockage can cause angina or a heart attack.

Lowering your cholesterol level decreases your chance for having a plaque burst and cause a heart attack. Lowering cholesterol may also slow down, reduce, or even stop plaque from building up.

Plaque and resulting health problems can also occur in arteries elsewhere in the body.

"The Eye" merupakan cerita seram tentang kehidupan seorang wanita buta berubah setelah mendapat kornea mata dari seorang penderma yg tidak dikenali. Melalui mata barunya itu, pelbagai perkara yang pelik dan menyeramkan telah berlaku. Setelah itu, dia mula menyiasat siapakah pemilik mata tersebut dengan bantuan seorang doktor muda. Setakat ini filem ini telah dibuat dalam 3 versi iaitu yg asal dari Hong Kong, kemudian remake dibuat dalam versi Hindustan dan baru2 ini versi Hollywood telah ditayangkan seluruh dunia. Ketiga2 filem ini mmg best dan mempunyai kekuatan yang tersendiri sebab 2 remake yg dibuat tak follow 100% versi yg asal dan mungkin mereka inginkan kelainan dan mengikut cara mereka tersendiri.

• The Eye aka Jian Gui (2002)
  

The Eye is a co-production of MediaCorp Raintree Pictures in Singapore and Applause Pictures of Hong Kong, and was shot in Hong Kong and Thailand with a pan-Asian cast and crew, including Malaysian-Taiwanese actress Angelica Lee, Chinese-Canadian singer Lawrence Chou, Singaporean singer-actor Pierre Png and Thai actress Chutcha Rujinanon.The crew included Thai cinematographer Decha Seementa and the Thai music collective Orange Music provided the score.

Danny and Oxide Pang said they were inspired to write the screenplay for The Eye by a report they had seen in a Hong Kong newspaper 13 years before, about a 16-year-old girl who had received a corneal transplant and committed suicide soon after.

"We'd always wondered what the girl saw when she regained her eyesight finally and what actually made her want to end her life", Oxide said in an interview.

• Naina (2005)
  

Naina is a Hindi horror film released in India in 2005. It stars Urmila Matondkar and shooting at London and India.

In The Eye, Mun became blind at the age of two. In Naina, Naina became blind at age five. In The Eye, Mun lived with her grandmother and sister. In Naina, Naina lives with her grandmother.

Common name: Mandarin Orange.
Scientific name: Citrus reticulata.
Malay name: Limau langkat, Limau wangkas, limau kupas.
Chinese name: Cheng zi (Mandarin).
Other names: Kid glove oranges, Loose-skin oranges, tangerine oranges, tangerines.

Mandarin Orange (Citrus reticulata), tropical and sub-tropical tree belonging to the family Rutaceae whose fruit is popular. Associated with good fortune by the Chinese, it is a significant feature of local Chinese New Year celebrations. The fruit is high in Vitamin C and its juice is a popular drink.

Origin and distribution
Mandarin oranges are native to the tropical and sub-tropical regions of Asia, probably Southern China, the Philippines and the Malay Archipelago. There are many different hybrids or varieties of Mandarins. The flavour of the fruit ranges from sprightly sweet to nearly spicy. Some are seedless while others full of them. The fruits also vary in size and colour. Tangerines, for example, are the brightly-coloured version of Mandarins.

Due to the great variety, there were probably differences in the early classification of the fruits, resulting in other scientific names for Mandarin oranges like Citrus nobilis, Citrus deliciosa and Citrus chrysocarpa. The most distinctive feature of all Mandarin oranges is its peelable skin. The fruits of Citrus reticulata have a very loose skin that is so easy to peel that they are called kid-glove or loose-skin oranges.

Mandarin oranges were nearly restricted to Asia until their introduction to the West at the turn of the 19th century. In 1805, two varieties of the Mandarin oranges were brought into England from Canton. From England, it was introduced into the Mediterranean region. By 1850, the fruit was well-established in Italy. The Italian Consul at New Orleans in the United states imported Mandarin oranges from Italy between 1840 to 1850. From there the fruit spread to Florida and later to California. In 1896, a variety of the fruit from Japan, the Owari Satsuma, was introduced to USA, and between 1908 and 1911, about a million budded trees of the same variety were sent to the Gulf for planting. Another variety of the fruit, the King Mandarin, was sent from Saigon to California in 1882. In 1888, seeds of Oneco Mandarin which were widely grown in the Western Ghats of India were sent to the USA. In the early 1890s, the Ponkan variety were sent to the USA from China, and this led to the commercial propagation of Mandarins in the USA.

The fruit was probably named "Mandarin" because it was introduced to the West by China. "Mandarin" was an English reference for Chinese government officials. The fruit is also known as Mandarina among the Spanish-speaking population of the American tropics. Mandarin oranges today are commonly found in Japan, East Indies, India, Australia and almost all tropical, sub-tropical and cooler parts of the world. In Southeast Asia, the Citrus reticulata and Citrus sinensis varieties are commercially grown in the cooler Cameron Highlands of Peninsular Malaysia. Citrus suhuiensis, known as limau langkat or limau madu in Malay, is grown in the warmer Malaysian states of Terengganu, Johor and Pahang.

Description

Mandarin trees are low woody shrubs commonly measuring between 3.6 to 4.5 m high. However, these spiny trees can sometimes grow up to 8 m tall. The bark is rather thick and brownish yellow in colour. Older twigs are dark brown while younger twigs are dark green. Younger twigs are also smooth and flattened at their ends. The leaves are lanceolate or elliptic, with a yellow-green undersurface. They measure 2.5 to 10 cm long and 1 to 3.5 cm wide. The margins of the leaves are toothed from the apex to the middle of the leaf. The leaf stalks do not normally have wings, but if present, they are narrow. Flowers are white and small (about 1.5 cm in diameter) with 5 petals. They grow singly or in a group of 2-3 flowers in a stalk at leaf corners. Mandarin fruits are globose to oblate in shape with a shiny skin that can come in a range of colours from green, greenish yellow, yellow to golden. The skin is thin, peels easily and encloses flesh that is separated in 9 to 15 segments. The segments are covered with a very thin, edible transparent skin. The flesh is pale orange in colour and juicy. Seeds, if present, are small, oblong and inedible.

Usage and potential
Food: A good source of vitamins and minerals, the fruit is often consumed fresh. It can also be canned in syrup or made into juice. The fruit and the rind are used to flavour cakes, pastries, gelatines, puddings, chewing gum, bakery products, and tea. Mandarin oil is used to flavour carbonated beverages.

Medicine: Essential oils obtained by cold compression of the peel is used in aromatherapy and traditional medicine for the treatment of insomnia, and skin and digestive problems. Different varieties of the fruit and parts of the plant, such as seeds, roots, leaves and flowers are used in Chinese, Malay and Indian traditional medicine. Petitgrain mandarin oil is obtained from distilling leaves, twigs and unripe fruits of the plant. The fruit being high in Vitamin C, is considered good for the immune system. It is supposed to help combat phlegm and keeps colds at bay. Some varieties of the fruit contain a decongestant called synephrine.

Other uses: Among the Chinese, the Mandarin oranges are associated with good luck. During the Chinese New Year celebrations, Mandarin oranges are given to family and friends to usher in prosperity. Some of the essential oils obtained from the peel is used in the manufacture of perfumes, cologne and floral compounds.

Memang sedia maklum penyanyi arab terutama dari Mesir dan Lebanon ni seksi2. Walaupun jarang ambil tahu psl artis dr negara timur tengah sana tp kejadian kontroversi yg berlaku sewaktu persembahan di Mesir memang mengejutkan.



Jarang dengar artis kena raba sewaktu persembahan tp inilah yang telah berlaku ke atas artis dari Lebanon iaitu Marwa. Mula2 tu memang kesian lah kat minah ni sbb jadi mangsa rakus tangan laki2 yg tak bertamadun tu tp bila nengok gambar2 dierr mmg hilang rasa simpati pd dierr.


Tak leh nak ckp apa, tengok jerklah gambar2 kat bawah ni, memang tak heranlah kalau kena raba...

Semalam iaitu episod-10 merupakan final utk Cornetto Love? Perhaps Season 2. Memang dah boleh agak sapa yg menang memandangkan Vincent dan Laura yg menemui cinta sejati dalam rancangan realiti ni. Lebih lanjut baca kat artikel Harian Metro ni..

Bagi pasangan Raj n Christy, walaupun tewas tapi ikatan persahabatan telah membantu mereka hingga ke final.Terbaca gak kat New Straits Times hari ni yang Aliza(awekz thai) telah mengikat tali pertunangan dgn Adrian(hot guy).Manakala couple yg paling kontroversi iaitu Allan dan May telah menarik diri pada episod ke-9. Tak tahu apa terjadi pd hubungan mereka. Anyway semua ni just program realiti. Hubungan itu kekal atau tidak semua terpulang pada mereka.
