Ulasan filem : The Avengers in IMAX 3D
Best gila!
lambat lagi kot nak boleh masuk plot X-Men. tapi katalah Wolverine join, maknanya Avengers yang asal dah disassemble, tinggal Captain America sorang je, silap2 Nick Fury pun takde. daripada tayangan semalam, ada yg komplen Cap banyak dapat screen time banding dgn karakter lain, ada yang tak berapa gemar Cap yg disiplin dan keras sangat, tak loose macam Tony Stark tapi itu saya kira sebab memang karakter Cap dengan background military zaman WWII nya yang sebegitu yang masih cuba keep track dengan keadaan sekarang. yang komplen ni mungkin tak tau dulu komik Avengers ni ada sebab nak bagi ruang kat Cap yang dah tak popular dengan komiknya sendiri selepas era pasca perang. (tu sebab filem Captain America disebut The First Avenger). most of the time memang dia je yang lead Avengers, karakter lain sekadar back up, tapi versi filem ni, Downey Jr kena dok depan sebab dia paling star. paham2 lah. hahahaHarap2 filem Avengers yg seterusnya, kisah Infinity Gauntlet akan diserapkan... Tak perlu ikut 100% dari siri komik tersebut, cuma tunjukkan Thanos dan adiknya Nebiula manakala adiwira Silver Surfer ada di dalam filem The Avengers 2... Kalau Fox Pictures dapat bekerjasama, masukkan sekali X-Men, Daredevil dan Fantastic Four seperti Universal berikan Hulk...

Muka depan Mingguan Wanita : maria , tiz zaqyah dan Dato Siti Nurhaliza
Maria Tunku Sabri ke?
Siti Nurhaliza buat dubstep Skrillex ke instead of K-pop bongok?
mintak pencerahan.
Di sebuah kafe, Amir dan Rina berbincang tentang muzik, di mana Amir memberitahu Rina tentang Siti Nurhaliza yang ingin mencuba genre dubstep ala Skrillex. Rina, yang lebih suka lagu-lagu balada Siti, menyatakan kebimbangannya tentang perubahan itu dan menyebut Maria Tunku Sabri, pengacara program "Jalan Jalan Cari Makan", sebagai contoh seseorang yang tetap dengan identiti dan gaya tersendiri.
Amir berpendapat bahawa muzik adalah universal dan mencuba genre baru dapat memperkaya muzik tempatan. Perbualan mereka menarik perhatian seorang pelayan yang bersetuju bahawa vokal Siti yang hebat adalah yang paling penting, tidak kira genre. Mereka akhirnya bersetuju bahawa muzik adalah tentang ekspresi dan penemuan, serta bahawa perubahan boleh diterima tanpa melupakan akar budaya. Di kafe itu, mereka menyedari bahawa walaupun muzik berbeza, ia tetap mempunyai daya tarik tersendiri.

Tweeting of the moment : Wed 11, april 2012 and West Indian Girl
Kisah Antara Kenangan dan Inspirasi
Pada suatu hari, ketika media sosial penuh dengan tanda pagar seperti #Zap dan #SanityGiveMe1D, dunia sedang diwarnai oleh pelbagai kisah yang mencuit hati. Cherrybelle, kumpulan pop terkenal dari Indonesia, mengumumkan pencarian personel baru. Proses ini menjadi tumpuan peminat mereka, terutamanya di kalangan remaja yang ingin melihat idola baharu muncul.
Namun, dalam kehangatan berita hiburan, tumpuan dunia tidak lupa kepada tragedi besar yang pernah melanda kawasan Lautan Hindi (Indian Ocean). Pada tahun 2004, tsunami dengan magnitud 8.9 telah menggegarkan wilayah seperti Sumatra, Aceh, Phuket, dan kawasan lain di sekitarnya. Peristiwa ini meninggalkan kesan mendalam terhadap masyarakat antarabangsa. Gordon Thompson dan De Wit, dua pakar dalam kajian bencana, kerap membincangkan bagaimana kejadian itu telah mengubah cara manusia memahami kuasa alam.
Ketika itu, Alan Davies, seorang pelakon terkenal, dan Matt Groening, pencipta siri animasi ikonik, menggunakan platform mereka untuk meningkatkan kesedaran tentang bantuan kemanusiaan. Sementara itu, masyarakat di seluruh dunia memperingati National Siblings Day sebagai tanda penghargaan terhadap hubungan kekeluargaan, sesuatu yang sangat dirasai oleh mereka yang kehilangan ahli keluarga dalam tragedi tsunami.
Pada masa sama, kehidupan di tempat lain tetap berjalan seperti biasa. Di Madrid, pengangkutan awam seperti Metro de Madrid menjadi simbol kemajuan, menunjukkan bagaimana kota besar bergerak ke hadapan meskipun dunia menghadapi cabaran.
Tanda pagar #ConfessionHour dan ucapan seperti “Happy Hump Day” yang kerap muncul di laman sosial membawa pelbagai pengakuan dan kegembiraan kecil dalam kehidupan harian. Namun, di tengah keseronokan ini, ingatan terhadap peristiwa besar seperti tsunami harus terus hidup sebagai peringatan tentang pentingnya keseimbangan antara kemajuan dan kesedaran terhadap kuasa alam.
Setiap nama, dari Cherrybelle hingga Gordon Thompson, dan setiap tempat, dari Sumatra hingga Phuket, membawa cerita tersendiri. Ia mengingatkan kita bahawa kehidupan adalah gabungan antara hiburan, tragedi, dan harapan untuk masa depan yang lebih baik.
Twitter trending of the day : Marisa Medina

Betapa kehadiran beliau dalam perbualan harian ini mencetuskan pelbagai reaksi, ada yang memuji, ada juga yang berbicara dengan penuh tanda tanya, namun semuanya terpaut pada keindahan nama yang disebut-sebut itu.
Apakah gerangan yang menyebabkan namanya menjadi trending di persada Twitter? Barangkali suatu peristiwa, satu ucapan, atau karya yang telah beliau persembahkan kepada dunia maya, sehingga meninggalkan kesan mendalam di hati ramai. Twitter, yang menjadi medan percambahan wacana, kini bagaikan lautan bergelora dengan perbincangan tentang beliau.
Nama Marisa Medina ini, seperti bintang gemilang di langit malam, telah menarik perhatian khalayak yang ingin mengetahui lebih lanjut tentang peribadinya.

Demikianlah keajaiban dunia maya yang tiada batasan; nama yang dahulu mungkin hanya menjadi bisikan kecil, kini menggema di seantero jagat alam siber. Maka, teruslah kita memerhati, membaca, dan mendalami apa yang mendasari fenomena ini, kerana setiap nama yang naik mendaki pasti punya cerita yang menggamit rasa.

Cherry poppy seed cake Colorado Denver
Here's a recipe inspired by the Cherry Poppy Seed Cake, combining elements of German poppy seed cake traditions with a touch of American flair from Denver, Colorado.
%20(5).jpeg)
Cherry Poppy Seed Cake
Ingredients:
For the Cake:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¾ cup poppy seeds
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp almond extract
- ¾ cup whole milk
- 1 cup sour cream
For the Cherry Filling:
- 2 cups fresh or frozen cherries, pitted and chopped
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
For the Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2-3 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
Prepare the Cherry Filling:
- In a medium saucepan, combine cherries, sugar, cornstarch, water, and lemon juice.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens and the cherries break down. This should take about 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat and let the filling cool completely.
Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9-inch round cake pan.
Make the Cake Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and poppy seeds.
- In another large bowl, beat the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla and almond extracts.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, alternating with the milk and sour cream, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
Assemble the Cake:
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared cake pan. Spread it evenly.
- Spoon the cherry filling over the batter, spreading it evenly but leaving a small border around the edges.
- Pour the remaining batter over the cherry filling, carefully spreading it to cover the cherries completely.
Bake:
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Glaze:
- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cake.
Serve:
- Once the glaze has set, slice the cake and serve. Enjoy a slice with a cup of coffee or tea!
This Cherry Poppy Seed Cake is a delightful blend of the traditional German poppy seed cake with a fruity twist, perfect for birthdays or any special occasion.
Game of Thrones - Season 3, Episode 6, "The Climb" (READ)
In In Game of Thrones - Season 3, Episode 6, "The Climb," everyone’s on a risky journey—literally or politically. The episode’s title hints at Jon Snow’s nerve-wracking ascent of the Wall with the Wildlings, where he and Ygritte confront the brutal reality of survival and loyalty. The climb up the Wall feels like a metaphor for everyone’s ambitions in Westeros: reach the top, or fall trying.
Back in King’s Landing, Littlefinger delivers his famous line, “Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder,” laying out his dark view on power. While others shy away from chaos, he’s all in, seeing each setback as a chance to climb higher. It’s a chilling reminder that, in Westeros, the ambitious don't fear chaos—they use it.
Sansa gets a rude awakening, too, as her dream of marrying for love crashes when she’s paired with Tyrion. It’s a cruel twist, showing that in Westeros, marriage is rarely about love; it’s about power. Meanwhile, Arya’s journey takes a hit when Melisandre takes Gendry from the Brotherhood Without Banners, teaching her again that loyalty is rare and people are often out for themselves.
In this episode, everyone’s climb is tough, unpredictable, and often ruthless. No one is safe on the way up, and everyone has to sacrifice something to keep going.
