Poker in Casino Genting



I’m not a gambler nor a casino lover or anything like this However I like to play poker. Gambling is absolutely illegal in Malaysia except one specific spot called: “Genting Casino”

Genting Casino is located on hills with a distance of about 1 hour driving from Kuala Lumpur & perhaps there were only a pressure from Chinese Malaysians and as a tourist attraction that Malaysia has this place; Like in Dubai which basically there is no casino in Dubai but there are some specific spots for very rich individuals who can play.

Genting has got many other attractions rather than casinos, like: Theme parks, shopping malls, hotels, Skyway (Cable Car) & ... They have estimated that each year almost 19 million people visit Genting Highland.

This weekened, there is poker tournament in Genting Casino & am on it. So, wish me luck!



North of Iran

Iran's nature is full of differentiation and variation. Iranian call it a four season country which may not be easily found around the world.

Tehran-the capital- is a huge city both by population and area. around ten million people are living in Tehran and by my knowledge it takes about 2 hours to cross Tehran from east to west, light traffic.

The most famous spot for holidays and vacations for these people who live in Tehran, is the lovely shores of the Caspian sea in north of Iran. ]t usually takes about 3-4 hours to arrive there by car & its somehow a very normal driving for a "Tehrani"!!! Because many of them make this trip once or twice a month. Passing through Alborz Mountains by four possible roads, each one ends to a different city of north of Iran:
1. Chalus Road
2. Haraz Road
3. Firuzkuh Road
4. Rasht Highway


There are two provinces of Iran alongside the whole Caspian sea shores and the area is filled by green forests & rice farms and the highest level of humidity in the country. Winter time is usually rainy and the possibility of snow is very low. (only on highlands)

This area is full of cottages and private villas from very simple & small ones to luxurious high end villas. Local population is mostly farmers & some of them supply the needs of visitors by having supermarkets and grocery stores & ...

These are some of the usual scenes of "Provinces of Mazandaran & Gilan" - North of Iran:

Martin Robert, who police say has been linked to Hells Angels activity


Martin Robert, who police say has been linked to Hells Angels activity. Police have issued an arrest warrant for Robert on suspicion of murder, attempted murder, conspiracy to commit murder, gangsterism and drug trafficking and conspiracy. Robert, 35, has been implicated in the killings of members of the rival Rock Machine and Bandidos biker gangs from 1994 to 2002 - the height of the biker war. He also has reputed ties to drug trafficking over the past 12 years, say police. Robert is believed to like vacationing in the Dominican Republic.

Neil Purves, 27, of Cockburnspath, was detected by police as he travelled at 166mph

Neil Purves, 27, of Cockburnspath, was detected by police as he travelled at 166mph on a 60mph stretch of the A702 near West Linton in the Borders. He had admitted a charge of dangerous driving in a previous appearance at Peebles Sheriff Court. Graham Walker, representing Purves, said he had been "seduced by speed". In addition to his jail term, Purves has also been disqualified from driving for five years. Mr Walker told the court: "It is fair to say superbikes have a seductive appeal to them. "It is fair to say he was seduced by speed." 'Deeply ashamed'However, Sheriff John Horsburgh said there was no alternative to a jail term.
He said: "The speed at which you were travelling means a custodial sentence is the only option I have."
The court heard that Purves, who has since sold his Suzuki GSX-R 1000 motorbike, covered 0.7 of a mile in just 16 seconds on 13 May this year. His lawyer said he was "deeply ashamed" of the offence.
Procurator Fiscal Morag McLintock told a previous hearing: "We believe this is the highest speed that the police have ever recorded in Scotland. "A police speed check was taking place when officers were alerted by a high pitched whine from the motorcycle's engine." Last year more than 20 motorists were caught travelling at more than 100mph on the Dolphinton stretch of the A702. It has sparked calls for permanent speed cameras in the area.

Cameraman filming the police stopping of a car full of AK81 gang members

Cameraman filming the police stopping of a car full of AK81 gang members, has been threatened and pushed by one of the gangsters during the incident late yesterday afternoon, reports broadcaster TV2.Police had been on alert as a court case involving Hells Angels spokesman Jørn ‘Jønke’ Nielsen was taking place in the Eastern High Court in the central city.He and AK81 member Esben Hertz were yesterday acquitted of charges implicating them in a stabbing.Not long after the trial’s conclusion, the car carrying the members of AK81, a Hells Angels support group, was stopped on Store Kongensgade, a street near the court house, just outside The Copenhagen Post offices. When a TV2 cameraman began filming the incident, one of the gang members walked over to him, told him to shut off the camera and pushed him away.’Luckily nothing happened to me or the camera, but I can thank the police’s quick intervention for that,’ said the TV2 employee.It is unclear if the police will charge the temperamental gang member.

Divorce?

A friend of mine a few months ago discussed with me his marital situation and his life issues with his wife. I tried to advise him in a very supportive way and tried to keep their relationship as good as it could be. He was somehow lost in his way & he was looking at it in a way that maybe his relationship & his marriage was the problem. I knew his wife very well & actually she was a very supportive woman and a very lovely wife for him within all the years I'd seen their life. In the beginning of their relationship things were not so easy for him financially and she was one of the best who could handle the time and stay beside him with support & working with him in a company. At this time, it's not too easy to find a girl who can handle this situation in Tehran at the beginning of a marriage. They usually expect too much; but she did not.
Now years have gone & he does not remember. The only thing in his mind, is now a better lifestyle and more money and new discoveries which he does not remember he could not achieve even this much, without the support of a young lady, like his wife!

I don't know what to tell him. I heard he's asked for divorce!

My Life & Memories

They say "time flies" as you all know. Sometimes it happens for me that I still believe am only 13 , strolling around our cottage in the jungles of north of Iran. Noon times of loneliness & the blue sky of Alborz mountains*! Smooth breeze of afternoons & reading a poetry book of Hafiz* or Sohrab*.
A mind free of all worries & a heart full of hopes, wishes & dreams. Crying a few teardrops as the effect of reading poetry over the book & coming back to the cottage with no real conclusion.

I can't believe my age , though it may not seem too much for many of you. My birthday is close & this years candle will be the last , having a number 2 in front & I'm not believing it.



This summer, when I was back home in Iran, I scanned a few old pictures of mine from the family albums. Mom & dad were so young as my age right now or even younger; everything was so simple. I don't remember the time of this picture, but it must've been a happy day when dad took this one from me & mom.
Maybe as Emily Dickson says : "That it will never come again is what makes life so sweet."


* Alborz Mountains : The highest mountain ranges of Iran - Located almost on north of Iran , between the capital & the Caspian sea
*Hafiz: Is the most admired & famous poet of Persian history (7 centuries ago)
*Sohrab: Is one of the contemporary poets who died about 30 years ago at the age of 51.

A Story to Think Again

A Short Story Like This:

In a train , a young couple were in the same cabin with an old man & his son who was about 30 years old.
After a while the son looked out & told his old father: Dad! Dad! Look out! As we are moving in the train, everything out side is moving too! The trees , the clouds, the roads ... wow! It's Fascinating!

The couple looked at him with shock!

A few minutes later, the son opened the window of cabin & took his hand out. It was raining! He said: Look Dad! Now its raining! It feels so wonderful when you take your hand out here!

The couple were feeling so pity about this guy who was acting like a 5 years old child. They told the old man: Why don't you take your son to a psychologist or a physician anyway?

The old man said: We are just coming back from visiting a physician! My son can see now after 30 years of his life! he had a surgery on his eyes!

My Tequila Night & the most expensive bottle

Last Night three of us shared a bottle of Tequila & it was great. I don't know what happens that whenever I drink tequila , I laugh too much ... I think no other drink make s me happy like this.
I know that alcohol is generally considered a depressant in psychological terms exactly opposite of what people think, but maybe there is an exception about tequila.
Then I went for a search about tequila & how they make it and other sort of info. about its history & ...


The most interesting part was this:

A one-liter bottle of limited-edition premium tequila was sold for $225,000 in July 2006 in Tequila, Jalisco, by the company Tequila Ley .925. The bottle which contains the tequila is a two-kilo display of platinum and gold. The manufacturer has received the Certificate from Guinness World Records for the most expensive bottle of spirit ever sold.

"Ballroom Blitz" - Security Footage.

"Ballroom Blitz", which occurred in the packed grand ballroom of the Royal Pines resort at Carrara on March 18, 2006? Police have now released the dramatic television camera footage showing a melee quickly erupting, with chairs and glasses thrown and tables overturned. Gunshots can then be heard.

Gary Watson, 63, remained in critical but stable condition early this week after he was shot last week in his pickup truck at the entrance to the Hells Angels clubhouse on Route 23

Gary Watson, 63, remained in critical but stable condition early this week after he was shot last week in his pickup truck at the entrance to the Hells Angels clubhouse on Route 23, said Lt. Gary Wright of the Maine State Police Criminal Investigation Division. "We're still continuing with the investigation," Wright said. "We have some leads, and we're following up on those ... We have evidence collected on scene, which needs to be evaluated ... None of these types of cases are easy.So far, no one has been charged with Watson's shooting. As of Friday late afternoon, Watson remained at Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor, where his condition was still being monitored, said Maine Department of Public Safety spokesman Steve McCausland.Wright explained that just because Watson is affiliated with the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club does not mean the crime had anything to do with the group. However, all angles must be covered. "We have to look at every possibility," he said.When asked about the challenges of conducting an investigation that involves an organization that historically has been hesitant to talk with police, Wright said, "It's a quandary. When dealing with groups like that, it's difficult to get information. We're hopeful we might overcome this obstacle. We're certainly not certain we'll overcome it. Hopefully we develop enough information to be able to proceed ... In the end, you can't force people to talk to you."As of Tuesday, police had not yet spoken with Watson. "We're hoping that when he's physically able to speak with us, that he does," Wright said.
Watson is the only eyewitness to the shooting, he said, but "it's possible that he didn't see anything."
When asked if police are on alert for any indication of retaliation, he said, "We certainly have to be open to that possibility. We're going to be looking for anything related to this incident."Somerset County Sheriff Barry DeLong said there have been few incidents involving even a mention of Hells Angels in the past few years. "There's been complaints here and there but nothing major in the past three or so years," he said.A woman who lives near the clubhouse -- known locally as the Slaughterhouse -- said she heard about six gunshots around 5:30 p.m. last Thursday. When she looked out her window, she saw Watson's pickup truck reverse out of the clubhouse's driveway and into the middle of the road, perpendicular to the flow of traffic. When she went to Watson, there were bullet holes in his back window and side mirror, she said. One bullet appeared to have passed through his seat and entered his neck.An ambulance took Watson to the Canaan Fire Department where a LifeFlight helicopter took him to the hospital in Bangor. He underwent surgery there, McCausland said.Hells Angels members in Canaan declined to talk about the incident on the afternoon of Saturday, Oct. 10. Scores of motorcyclists arriving at the clubhouse during the group's Fall Roundup Chowder, Stew & Chili Cook-Off Saturday drove past a reporter seeking comment outside the entrance. A Maine State Police trooper could be seen driving past the clubhouse on Route 23 during the afternoon and was later parked just off the road, less than a half mile away.

Inglourious Basterds ... Great as Expected!

Tonight I found out the movie is on the show here in Malaysia. No waiting & I bought two tickets online & made it for 11:30 pm to the cinema.
In my opinion it was Quentin Tarantino's best movie after Pulp Fiction. I liked it more than Kill Bill, However am sure many will not agree.
As for always there a few scenes of blood and deep violence which made my wife not to look at it! So, ladies must be prepared!

Brad Pitt made a good appearance although it wasn't one of his movies that much and he didn't have that much of opportunity to be "the star".

I rated it 8/10 in my IMDB account!
A must see for all Tarantino's lovers , Suggested for all movie lovers and good to see for those who seek a bit of differentiation in films.

McDonald Varies !


Within the past two years am living in Malaysia, I have noticed that McDonald is really different in every country. Although here in Malaysia its O.K but I remember Cyprus McDonald was much better in quality & more expensive of course.

McDonald have a system of localizing at least one food in every country in its menu. Here in Malaysia they call it "Ayam Goreng" & its really something out of McDonald Specialty because its not a burger, its chicken piece & its more like KFC stuff, anyway people buy it a lot here.
By the time I was in Cyprus, they had something called Greek Big Mac & it was Big Mac wrapped in pita bread!
I checked some other countries McDonald webiste & I found out every ever is having something special. Like in Turkey they had something strange in menu: Kofteh Burger! Kofteh was a totally different food from Turkey, How it may come in Burger??? How does it taste? I don't know?

In Japan , they had something like schenitzel chicken piece. I checked China, Argentina, Greece & ... It's interesting to see how different people of the world are being treated by McDOnald.

Fun Theory

I saw some videos on a very interesting subject by a team who call themselves : The Fun Theory
here is their website &
watch it here , its awesome:







Google Search Stuff ! Interesting , let's share!


We all search Google for something , sometimes!!!
what we search is being recorded & then it will be counted up & ...
I don't want to talk about how it works. I wanna talk about the interesting offers that sometimes Google search engine offers and some of them are really funny or at least interesting to notice ... I got some of the samples by a software which captures the screen image & put them here for sharing with you. Let's have a look at the pictures and see what we get :
1. the first image is searching "How to " & then it tells me the most famous one is "How to make love"!!!! Really? Does this means people don't know how to make love & then searched it over the net or does this means some people made titles out of it a lot?
& then "How to get pregnant"!!! Perhaps the same people who didn't know how to make love , now wanted to know how to be pregnant as well !? or even "How to Kiss?" what can I say?

2.The second one was "What is" !!!
it was not so freaky as the previous one, though some of them are so stupid like "what is internet?" or "what is computer?" Please!






3. This one was like people are having a counseling session.
They are asking about "Should I quit my job / break up/ change job/ or even break up with BF?"
there is also about confessions in church !!!!!!!!!











4. "Who is" ... some of them are natural ... but "who is God" "Who is Jesus" ... great! :)














5. and then for me it was good to search a name which I don't know like "Ahmadinejad"!!!
& then there was his wife & his house & again about he being Jewish & all stuff! :))












6. Then I said let's see this person which I don't know , what has done! so it goes like "Did Ahmadinejad..." and here it goes: ...win/...deny the holocaust/ really win/ cheat/ call for destruction of Israel
it's amazing! :)













7. these coming two can reveal some secret about how girls & boys usually search over internet!!! Funny! "Does he"
Does He love me/ like me/ like you/ love you/ have a crush on me?

then the number it offers about does he like me is about 273,000,000
wait






8. & Now "Does She" ... the same stuff like the previous one
but then the number of
Does she like me is 130,000,000
It seems it's much less important for men over the internet to find if she really likes them !!!












9. Then it comes to my country:Iran !
"Is Iran"
oh my god ... some people don't know anything !
"in Asia/a democracy/ Arab country/ middle east/ safe/ ... ohhh! let me cry!










10. The Final one is funny still... searched for "is it ok"
someone wants to wear block for wedding & he comes to internet to solve his dilemma!

another person wants to run everyday! :))
let internet tell him what to do!

oh , another person wants to wear white this time for the wedding! oh my god!



am really laughing when I'm typing these stuff now!
By the way, the search criteria and results vary in different locations and different computers perhaps. see what else you can find & share it here !
it maybe a really interesting subject for a research!

Psychology & Islam ... Science & Islam ... Islamization!!!

The whole idea of this post has come from visiting another blog and reading a post about a book on Personality & Islamic ideas.
I remember my high school years in Tehran. Of course we had Classes of Religion(which was Islam) & Quran. Aisde from these we had another course called ethics, but was totally islamic thoughts. Our History lessons were mostly about Islam & Islam history and ... Geography class was also a session to somehow revise the world of islam and the people of it. We also had sociology which was a great opportunity to teach us more of Islam. Literature was full islamic ideas & Muslim poets & writers & their thoughts & believes. We were wondering it will be some time that perhaps there will be some other aspects of Islam in math & physics & chemistry although where ever there was something just a little related to Islam in these subjects , there was no skip; like when we were about to read about "alcohol" & we know that its Explorer was Razi & he was muslim too, sure we must knew that he was a good muslim & he prayed every day and went to mosque & he never intended to find out alcohol for drinking & he knew its gonna be "non- halal" in islam & ... so this was also about even chemistry.

Today in all universities in Iran, there are also interesting topics & subjects which are Islamic. Humanity science is totally broken in to Islam, over there. It's like all these science were born with Islam. they pretend that all these topics have nothing to offer if they have not been Islamized.

Sociology, Anthropology, Psychology are the main fields where islamic thoughts have interferred seriousely. The reason is obviously a fear. A fear that deep inside every religion nowadays lives.
A fear of losing the competition to science.

I hear from friends in Iran, when they go to counseling sessions with graduates of Iran's universities in counseling fields; most of my friends are disappointed by the way these graduates treat them & look at their problems. Family problems, Marriage issues, Addiction, Stress, Depression or what ever you may call many problems may have something to do with one individual's belief system however who said that this belief system must oblige from any specific religion. Does this sort of categorizing means that all those people with great believes in religion never face any life issues or problems?

You say please ! what do you think?

Kuala Lumpur & Tehran, Directions!


First days of driving in Kuala Lumpur was so difficult for me. I guess this is the same problem that most of the people who are new to this town have.


KL has a general round shape which by this, I mean Kuala Lumpur streets are not straight. As you may see in a street that KL Tower is just in front of you, so you may guess that's it! I get this street & go forward till I reach to KL Tower; But you are absolutely wrong. You will be lost somewhere totally misplaced. even having a map or something does not help that much since you are driving and don't have time to look at it all times.
My own city-Tehran- has a very simple route. To any direction is the street, you will end up by the same direction. If you are heading north, it means you are going to north. Simple!

So, after a while and getting lost for a few times in KL, I preferred to pay more than 500 RM & buy a simple GPS for my car to navigate me in this complicated city. Thanks to ebay Malaysia for providing me a cheap GPS!

Just take a look at these two cities maps & find out for yourself :)

Perhentian Island of Malaysia (A Paradise Island)



It's time to tell about one of my best trips in Malaysia. It was last August as my family came to Malaysia to visit us, so we had a chance to make a family trip and go all together to a fascinating spot called "Perhentian Island".

The island is located on north east of the western Malaysia. It's about 7 hours of driving from Kuala Lumpur & then we had to take a small ferry to the island which will take about an hour. This island is more natural than Tioman since there are no roads or cars or even mobile signal. So, you are gonna be far from anything for a few days and its wonderful. The first moment we arrive by the coast of our Chalet, I couldn't believe the crystal waters and how easily I could see all the fishes & corals even at more than 10 meters depth.
Diving & Snorkeling is mostly what you should spend your days over there and almost avoid sun bathing due to very strong possibility of burning your skin. The nature is beautiful with the island fully covered with forests, an island which is totally about 10 Km2 ; It's actually 2 separated islands.
There are no luxury hotels or resorts here in Perhentian & its mostly chalets. Food & beverages are not that expensive as in entire Malaysia it is not, however in the island slightly more expensive. You can buy a few can of beer like us, before you get to the boat coming to island since its gonna be only 1.5 USD per can of beer and the same thing in the island is actually double price.
If you are not a professional diver, 2-3 nights would be enough to enjoy the serenity of the island although there are diving classes with international certificate which you can take within the course of your stay at the island.
I'm really planning to go there again, since I didn't like any other island more than this.



Chavez, Obama & the IQ Test

A friend of mine sent me an email about some sort of joke about Chavez, Obama & ... it was in Persian language and I had to translate it because I thought these sort of stuff are only made up in Iranian culture and I was sure about it that it was made by Iranian. I try my best to see how strong could I convey the meaning of this:

One Day, Chavez decided to give a visit to America & went to white house meeting president Obama. As he arrived to America, he was fascinated by the country and its social welfare, disciplines, arrangements & all sort of formations However he tried not to feature his thoughts.
He said to Obama: Down with America! But what have you done that your country and systems are this much organized and everything is working out?

Obama Said: See dear Chavez! Here when we want to choose people as ministers,assistants, commanders or deputies or ... we choose them carefully and even we take some tests like an IQ test; Not just like you anyone we like.
Wow! Said Chavez. How do you do it so?
Obama: I'll call Hillary now and you can see.

After a while Hillary was there, ready for the test by Obama.
Obama: Ok Hillary! Tell me who is the person born by your parents but it's not your sibling?
Chavez was a bit confused for the answer.
Hillary smiled: Me!

Chavez was shocked and surprised and so happy about the method he just learned. He got back to Venezuela and called his Nicolas Maduro immediately. Chavez was so angry about him and complained all about the foreign relations and all the stuff he knew. Then he said: I'll ask you a question! It's like a test for you. You'll have one day to answer it, though I should only give you an hour to think about it.
Maduro was scared to death and he was waiting for the question so terribly.
Chavez: Tell me who is the person born by your parents but it's not your sibling?
Maduro blinked and left Chavez office with no answer while he only had a day to answer the question. Nothing came to his mind and finally he called the retired Kalin and begged for the answer: Kalin! Please tell me who is the person born by your parents but it's not your sibling?
Kalin said with calmness: It's f***ing clear! It's me! Maduro had been refreshed. He was so happy & went back to Chavez with the answer.
Chavez: Alright! Tell me! You got the answer, so tell me who is the person born by your parents but it's not your sibling?
Maduro: Kalin!
Chavez: Oh! No Stupid! No muddle-headed fool! It's Hillary! Hillary Clinton!

Kuala Lumpur Sunrise

As i went to bed around 4 in the morning with the pain in my foot, I could not sleep. Many thoughts in my mind led to remembering lots of names which I had forgotten: Angella, Charis & ... from Cyprus.
It was about 6 that I noticed the sun is making the sky bright. I woke up and got the camera and went to the balcony and tried taking a few shots of sunrise.
So, this is how Kuala Lumpur sunrise looks like from my apartment: (Click on the images so you can see the large picture)






David "Bart" Barbeito is too dangerous to free pending trial.

David "Bart" Barbeito is too dangerous to free pending trial, U.S. Magistrate Judge Mary Stanley ruled after FBI testimony about an allegedly violent confrontation involving the club's ruling panel and renegade West Virginia bikers in 2003. She also heard a recording of a conversation involving Barbeito and other Pagans leaders in Pittsburgh four years ago.Barbeito, who's led the club since 1989, is the lead defendant in a 44-count indictment returned against 55 Pagans and associates from West Virginia, Kentucky, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Florida. The charges include two murder conspiracies, kidnapping, weapons violations and drug dealing.Barbeito pleaded not guilty to one charge stemming the 2003 confrontation and three gambling counts. The Pagans' trial is set for Dec. 15.Barbeito, 49, of Myersville, Md., also faces state kidnapping and conspiracy charges in West Virginia.
The 2003 incident centers on a dispute between national vice president Floyd "Diamond Jesse" Moore and six or seven members of the club's Charleston chapter. Moore also is being held pending trial.
A Pagans member who has become an informant says Barbeito told him to retrieve a shotgun that he held on six or seven cohorts at the club's South Charleston clubhouse, said FBI agent Chris Courtright, who conceded the informant's version of events was not corroborated."He (Barbeito) and the other members who traveled to West Virginia were going to solve this problem," Courtright said. Those members comprised the Pagans' so-called mother club, which investigators say functions as a sort of board of directors for the organization. "He was on the side of Jesse and the mother club members that were present."The dispute was resolved without injuries, though the local members quit the Pagans, Courtright said.Defense attorney Stanley Needleman argued the dispute centered on drug dealing by the Charleston members, who were booted for selling speed."It was Mr. Barbeito who outlawed it," Needleman said.Federal prosecutor Steve Loew also surprised Pagans member William Grayson by calling him as a witness. Grayson has attended earlier arraignments and was in the courthouse but not the courtroom Thursday.Grayson repeatedly invoked his right against incriminating himself and refused to answer questions about his membership in the club and whether he has replaced Moore as national vice president.He did, however, say Moore probably isn't vice president because he's in custody. Grayson also acknowledged two federal convictions for his role in a deadly 2002 brawl with the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club in New York. Seventy-three Pagans were convicted of federal charges stemming from the fight. One died.

Guns may belong to the Hells Angels motorcycle gang

Dredger-operator working to clean up a bush-laden area in the city’s Amager district yesterday got a serious shock when he heard a loud bang.The blast came from a sawn-off shotgun – one of two the dredger had inadvertently dug up, along with some compatible shells in a plastic bag. Police suspect the guns may belong to the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, whose clubhouse is just around the corner from the site.The items have been handed over to the police’s forensic unit.

Member of the East End Hells Angels convicted on four weapons counts in July was ordered freed on bail Tuesday on his next round of charges.

Member of the East End Hells Angels convicted on four weapons counts in July was ordered freed on bail Tuesday on his next round of charges.

Zavisa Drecic, 45, of Buchner Road, was sentenced to eight years in prison Wednesday in a Toronto courtroom.

Zavisa Drecic, a former member of the Niagara Hells Angels, had been transferred to the Woodbridge chapter of the gang when he was swept up in a provincewide police crackdown in 2007. Zavisa Drecic, 45, of Buchner Road, was sentenced to eight years in prison Wednesday in a Toronto courtroom. He was credited a year for pretrial custody and restricted bail conditions. Project Develop was an OPP-led investigation into the gang that used one of its members as an informant. Drecic was one of 31 people arrested in pre-dawn raids on April 4, 2007, in Ontario, British Columbia and New Brunswick. He spent 30 months under house arrest at his Welland home. Drecic, who facilitated drug transactions through a third party, pleaded guilty to three counts of trafficking illegal substances, but not guilty to trafficking in association with a criminal organization. He was found guilty of the criminal association charge earlier this month. Prosecutor Tanit Gilliam said Drecic brokered a $500 deal via a third party on May 16, 2006, for 279 grams of gamma hydroxybutyrate acid (GHB), commonly referred to as the date-rape drug.

This was so shocking to see even Spain residents (perhaps Iranian in Spain) have gone this far.

The Eights Day



Sometimes I wish was George. (Try to pronounce George in French Accent) By this George I mean the character in the Movie “Le huitième jour” (The Eights Day). Its a French movie from the director "Jaco Van Dormael" who made this movie in 1996 & after that didn’t actually directed any other movie until this year.

I remember I watched it around 1998 for the first time and it was a wonderful night, the night I watched it for the first time. I was about 18 years. Years have gone now and I decided to watch it again, this time with my wife and a few friends. It was still amazing, still heart shaking and very impressive. I can’t believe how life could be simple and fun. I can’t believe how mankind has made it so difficult to live and this much complicated. When you watch George that he is so happy with a few songs that he knows and when you see this guy who will simply express his feelings to anyone he likes... Its awesome!

Try to find it and watch. It will really be one of your favorite movies all time because this is a different movie.
The story he has about how God has created the stuff within 7 days and what happened in the 8th day is sure the best quote of this movie. It's fascinating
