Good versus Evil

The internal struggle between good and evil is obvious in D Jekyll .One part of him is kind while the other part(Mr Hyde) enjoy sinfull pleasures. The two forces are always competing within him and he has to make sure he keeps a balance between them.

However, Dr Jekyll is unable to control his evil nature and the horrible deeds committed by Hyde. This led him to take his own life.

In the case of Dr Jekyll, we see an internal struggle between the good part of himself and his evil side, Mr Hyde.

Friendship and Loyalty

The theme of friendship and loyalty is seen in Robinson Crusoe's relationship with Friday. Before he met Friday ,Robinson was lonely.He found companionship with two dogs,a parrot and a cat.

After he saved Friday,he lived happily together for 3 years. Fiday learnt to speak English.One day they fought a group of savages. They saved Friday's own Father.This shows that Friday is loyal to his friend.

They learn from each other.

Robinson also makes friends with the English and Spanish mutineers.He solves their disputes and helps them to form friendships with each other.

This shows that Robinson has good social skills and he is loyal to his friends.

Faith in God

Robinson Crusoe taught Friday about God.Friday had never heard of God.Robinson explained to him the diference between good and evil,and about God and the Devil.He taught Friday about God goodness and power.He explained that God's aim was to make sure that good triumphed over Evil.

Friday asked him why God did not simply distroy the Devil and allow only good in the world.Robinson did not have an answer.He prayed to God for an answer.This show his deep faith in God

The Truth About Dr Jekyll

In a letter to Utterson,Dr Jekyll reveals the full truth.He said that he was born rich and had a bright future ahead of him.

However,he had one weakness-he loved living a carefree and wild life.This did not fit in with his image as a respectable doctor.Therefore he started to live a double life-living as a respectable doctor and pursuing sinful pleasure in secret.

Dick Fosbury

The Fosbury Flop is a style used in the athletics event of high jump. It was popularized and perfected by American athlete Dick Fosbury, whose gold medal in the 1968 Summer Olympics brought it to the world's attention. Over the next few years the flop became the dominant style of the event and remains so today. Before Fosbury, most elite jumpers used the Straddle technique, Western Roll, Eastern cut-off or even Scissors-Jump to clear the bar. Given that landing surfaces had previously been sandpits or low piles of matting, high jumpers of earlier years had to land on their feet or at least land carefully to prevent injury. With the advent of deep foam matting high jumpers were able to be more adventurous in their landing styles and hence experiment with styles of jumping.

Earth Song

What about sunrise
What about rain
What about all the things
That you said we were to gain.. .
What about killing fields
Is there a time
What about all the things
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the blood we've shed before
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores?
Aaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaah
What have we done to the world
Look what we've done
What about all the peace
That you pledge your only son...
What about flowering fields
Is there a time
What about all the dreams
That you said was yours and mine...
Did you ever stop to notice
All the children dead from war
Did you ever stop to notice
The crying Earth the weeping shores
Aaaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaaah
I used to dream I used to glance beyond the stars
Now I don't know where we are
Although I know we've drifted far
Aaaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaaaaaah

Hey, what about yesterday (What about us) What about the seas (What about us) The heavens are falling down (What about us) I can't even breathe (What about us) What about the bleeding Earth (What about us) Can't we feel its wounds (What about us) What about nature's worth (ooo,ooo) It's our planet's womb (What about us) What about animals (What about it) We've turned kingdoms to dust (What about us) What about elephants (What about us) Have we lost their trust (What about us) What about crying whales (What about us) We're ravaging the seas (What about us) What about forest trails (ooo, ooo) Burnt despite our pleas (What about us) What about the holy land (What about it) Torn apart by creed (What about us) What about the common man (What about us)

Idris Jala named minister in PM’s dept to oversee KPI initiative

Malaysia Airlines (MAS) chief executive officer and managing director Datuk Seri Jala has been appointed as a Minister in the Prime Minister’s department Thursday.
He would be the chief executive officer of Performance Management and Delivery Unit (PEMANDU), the organisation that oversees the implementation of the Key Performance Index (KPI) initiatives.

Sarawakian Leader

Datuk Seri Idris Jala, who is from the Kelabit ancestry, is the current Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Malaysia Airlines.Before that, Idris used to work for Shell. In 2005, the Malaysian government elected him as CEO of Malaysia Airlines due to massive losses of the company. In February 2006, he announced the airline's business turnaround plan from a 9-month loss of USD400 million in 2005 to achieving a record profit of USD260 million in 2007.
In May 2008, Idris appeared on national television announcing the airline's first ever 'zero fare' for domestic and a selection of international flights, a move that raised his spat between him and AirAsia’s boss, Tony Fernandes to a new level.
Idris Jala is a Kelabit from Sarawak and is a Christian. He was the first non-Malay non-Muslim to be appointed to head a GLC, as part of new government reforms.

Who is Ninoy?

Benigno Servillano "Ninoy" Aquino, Jr.(November 27, 1932 – August 21, 1983) was a Philippine Senator, Governor of Tarlac, and an opposition leader against President Ferdinand Marcos. He was assassinated at the Manila International Airport (later renamed in his honor) upon returning home from exile in the United States. His death catapulted his widow, Corazon Aquino, to the limelight and subsequently to the presidency, replacing the 20-year Marcos regime. In 2004, the anniversary of his death was proclaimed as a national holiday now known as Ninoy Aquino Day

Who is Corazon Aquino?

Corazon Aquino rose to prominence when her husband,who was seen as the main figure opposing the Marcos regime, was shot dead.

The soft- spoken Aquino rewrote the country's constitution and freed all political dissidents jailed by Marcos.

I would love to read your comments.

Today I read about Corazon Aquino.

Obama said that he was deeply saddened by Aquino's death.

Her courage is an inspiration.
