Batman to be killed off after 70 years ?!

Does Robin kill Batman?

'Batman RIP' will see "the end of Bruce Wayne as Batman", according to Grant Morrison. There are rumours that Batman will suffer a gruesome end when his sidekick Robin goes over to "the dark side" and destroys him in a terrible betrayal.

Batman, alter ego of Bruce Wayne a wealthy industrialist, operates in the American Gotham City.Others speculate that Wayne may either retire from his duties or be killed by a mystery villain known as the Black Glove. His fate will be revealed in the latest issue of DC Comic's Batman, published on 26 November.

Either way, his demise will lead to a hunt for a replacement. "What I am doing is a fate worse than death, things that no one would expect to happen to these guys at all," Mr Morrison told Comic Book Resources. Mr Morrison, the Scottish writer, has written storylines for comics including X-Men for Marvel and Superman for DC Comics. He took over writing the Batman series for DC in 2006.

Bruce Wayne has given up the Caped Crusader mantle once before. In the 'Knightfall' storyline, Batman's back was broken by villain Bane, causing Wayne to recruit Jean-Paul Valley to replace him. Mr Morrison declined to reveal who the new Batman would be, but the frontrunners include Tim Drake who has been Robin since 1991 and Dick Grayson - the original Boy Wonder. It is not the first time a superhero has met an unfortunate end in the comic world.

Last year, Captain America was killed after being shot by a sniper in New York. Superman's death in 1992 at the hands of Doomsday became the biggest selling Superman comic in history. He was later resurrected.Batman was co-created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger for DC Comics. The character first appeared in Detective Comics in May 1939.

What is the true definition of Globalization? =D

Question: What is the true definition of Globalization?

Answer: Princess Diana's Death

Question: How come?

Answer: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whisky, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by andoctor, using Brazilian medicines. This message is sent to you using Bill Gates’s technology, and you’re probably reading this on your computer, that use Chinese chips, and a Korean monitor, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by Pakistani lorry-drivers, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen, and trucked to you by Mexican illegal…..

That, my friend, is Globalization!

Joaquin Phoenix Retires !


Joaquin Phoenix who turned 34 years old just yesterday, stunned Extra correspondent Jerry Penacoli with the announcement that he would be retiring from acting. The two-time Oscar nominee stated this on the red carpet at a Monday benefit for the Association of Hole in the Wall Camps, a charity founded by Paul Newman.

Phoenix said that "Two Lovers," his upcoming romantic drama with Gwyneth Paltrow and Vinessa Shaw, will be his final on-screen role. "This will be my last performance as an actor. I'm not doing films anymore... I've been through that. I've done it... I'm dead serious."

Phoenix is apparently giving up acting to pursue music, a passion of his since he learned to play guitar to play the role of Johnny Cash in 2005's "Walk the Line". According to Billboard, Phoenix is working on an album with Tim Burgess, frontman for the UK groupThe Charlatans. Burgess said, "Once he learnt guitar he found that he had quite a lot of demons inside himself that he wanted to expel through music.

Phoenix appeared at the charity event on Monday with his brother-in-law, Casey Affleck. Affleck is married to Phoenix's younger sister, Summer. In explaining his retirement decision, Phoenix said, "It's Casey's time now."

Affleck confirmed for E! Online that Phoenix is telling the truth when he says he's leaving the acting profession, saying, "I guess he's getting into music. He's putting out an album." But both Affleck and Phoenix hurried away from the cameras without elaborating.

Michael Jackson (Mikaeel) converted to Muslim


The Former King of Pop, Michael Jackson who was raised as a Jehovah's Witness, converted to Islam in a ceremony at a friend's house in Los Angeles. He chose Mikaeel as his Muslim name. Mikaeel is the name of one of Allah's angels. Michael Jackson is said to have rejected the name Mustafa, meaning "the chosen one". He is said to have sat on the floor and worn a small hat while an imam officiated

According to The Sun, the ceremony took place while Jackson, 50, was recording an album at the home of Steve Porcaro, a keyboard player who composed music on his Thriller album. The former Jackson 5 star was counselled by David Wharnsby, a Canadian songwriter, and Phillip Bubal, a producer, who have both converted.

A source said Jackson had appeared a "bit down" and added: "They began talking to him about their beliefs, and how they thought they had become better people after they converted. Michael soon began warming to the idea. "An imam was summoned from the mosque and Michael went through the shahada, which is the Muslim declaration of belief."

Last year his brother, Jermaine Friday, suggested Jackson would convert having taken an interest in Islam since Friday's conversion in 1989. "When I came back from Mecca I got him a lot of books and he asked me lots of things about my religion and I told him that it's peaceful and beautiful," said Friday."He read everything and he was proud of me that I found something that would give me inner strength and peace.

"I think it is most probable that Michael will convert to Islam. "He could do so much, just like I am trying to do. Michael and I and the word of God, we could do so much."

Alhamdulillah, May Allah Bless Him. :]

Blonde Suicide Attempt ! =D

I remember back in 1995 i went over to my neighbors house. She was a blonde and for some reason she was mad at the world. She was in the bathroom and the door was locked. I said, “Come on, you know you don’t want to do this!” She said, “I damn well do wanna do this, nobody wants me alive anyway.” For some reason I actually believed her and pushed through the door. She had a rope tied to her ankles.

I asked “Aren’t you trying to hang yourself?”

“Yes, what’s your point?”

“Well, usually when people hang themselves they tie the rope around their necks”

“Yeah well, I tried that, But then I couldn’t breathe.”

Buy Fuel With Your MyKad !

Malaysians can use their MyKad to buy petrol from November.
The service will be available nationwide at all BHP, Caltex and three Shell-branded stations owned by Dialog Group Bhd. Consumers will have to open either a savings or a current account with EON Bank, which is the only bank providing payment transactions through the MyKad at the moment. This facility is similar to the debit card service, where consumers deposit an amount in their debit card account before using it.



EON Bank head of consumer banking Michael Lor said those who wanted to use the service needed to open an account with the bank while existing account holders needed to register at ePetrol kiosks. Currently, there are 250 bank customers using the service at 11 petrol stations in Petaling Jaya and Kuala Lumpur under a two-month pilot project. Local payments solution provider ePetrol Holding Sdn Bhd teamed up with EON Bank for the system.



'We are looking at attracting 30,000 users and there will be no extra charges, except for a simple RM6 registration fee,' said Lor after the launch of the cashless payment service by Bank Negara assistant governor Nor Shamsiah Yunus yesterday.

ePetrol president Ngau said they also used the pilot project to test the rebate system to prepare for the petrol subsidy programme using MyKad when the Government was ready..
'We give a 15-sen rebate per litre up to 150 litres a month as a test,' he said.
