Most Expensive Car in the World

If your passion for performance and luxury autos cannot be stopped, and your McLaren F1 is becoming a bore with the rest of your exotic cars, it might be time to check out the long awaited Veyron from Bugatti. At around $1.25 million, it is the most expensive car ever made. So what car value do you get for all that money?

This is not your typical luxury car. How about a W-16 (essentially two narrow-angle V-8s sharing a crankshaft) with four turbochargers generating 1001 hp, throw in all-wheel drive and you’ve got a seriously fast car.

The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 hits 60 mph in 2.5 secs., does the quarter-mile in 10.5 secs. and reaches its top speed of 252 mph in just 55 secs. After a long absence from the market Bugatti (with a little help from parent company Volkswagen) has reclaimed its title as the ultimate performance car and reigns supreme as the world’s most expensive car in production.

World's Most Expensive Bottled Water

Bottled water is big business, I mean, really big. In less than ten years bottled water consumption has doubled, with prices about 100 times that of tap water. Hollywood writer-producer Kevin G. Boyd has tapped into the bottled water market with an image approach. His water, Bling H20, the world’s most expensive bottled water, has been spotted in the hands of numerous celebrities and even at awards ceremonies like the Emmy’s, Grammy’s, and the MTV Video Music Awards.

Bling H2O

The water is bottled in Dandridge, Tennessee, probably the least note-able quality of the most expensive bottled water. Boyd’s approach to the bottled water market is as extreme as the limited edition bottles themselves. They come frosted, corked, and boasting hand-applied Swarovski crystal. Bling H20 boasts that it has won the gold medal at the Berkely Springs International Water Tasting Festival with its nine-step purification process. If you are a water elitist, be prepared to spend $40-60 for a 750ml bottle. If you are buying your expensive bottled water at a club, be prepared to spend more.

World's Most Expensive Phone Number

In many areas of the world you can phone switch carriers but keep your phone number. This is known as phone number portability. Caller id and cell phones have encouraged many people to stop memorizing phone numbers, because simply by hitting a button, a person can connect to someone who recently called. It is easy to see that some phone numbers are easier to remember than others. In May of 2006 the most expensive phone number was sold in a charity auction in Doha, Qatar.

The expensive phone number 666 6666 reportedly sold for 10m Qatari riyals or £1.5m, or around $2,750,000 US. In the West some consider 6 the imperfect number, but this is apparently not the consensus in Qatar.

The Register reports that the Chinese number 8888 8888 was previously the most expensive phone number, selling for £270,000 to Sichuan Airlines.

Press Statement by Malaysian Bar

The Malaysian Bar

The Bar Council is shocked and deeply troubled over the reported arrest of Raja Petra Kamaruddin under the Internal Security Act (ISA).

The Malaysian Bar has consistently denounced the ISA as draconion and undemocratic, and believes that preventive detention laws should not be invoked under any circumstances. The ISA and other preventive detention laws violate fundamental rights, are unconstitutional and oppressive, and have no place in a society that respects and upholds the rule of law. If an offence has been allegedly committed, the individual concerned must be charged in court and given a fair opportunity to defend himself. We agree with the view reportedly expressed by Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Dr. Rais Yatim yesterday when he disagreed with the call for the use of the ISA on Datuk Ahmad Ismail, saying that this “will have a huge effect on… the rule of law” and that he should therefore “go through the normal process of law”.

The Bar Council is equally perturbed that three newspapers have been issued show-cause letters today over their news coverage. This together with the arrest of Raja Petra Kamaruddin under the ISA may be viewed as a chilling message that our fundamental freedoms are not secure.

Too often we see in other countries, the rule of law and human rights becoming the first casualties when these countries face uncertainties. This must never be allowed to happen in our country where the rule of law is entrenched in our Rukunegara. More so as Malaysia is a member of the UN Human Rights Council.

We therefore call for the immediate release of Raja Petra Kamaruddin and other detainees.

People & Power - Malaysia's Internal Security Act - 9 Sep 08

Peoples view on the internal security act (ISA)

kitolo Says:
i am ANGRY and SADDENED by this uncalled for action taken by the government, the real culprit of the situation is now sitting at home, defiant, arrogant, and outright disrespectful and he is not detained by the ISA and was just given a mere 3 year suspension, is that even considered a severe punishment? defiant towards the punishment he even had the cheek to say a post will be created for him as an advisor, hence he will still be in the decision making process of the party? the people who reported the truth and seek justice were punished extremely. All they asked was JUST AN APOLOGY, and they were detained indefinately. even the blind can see this is wrong. i usually mind my own business but this is too much, i hope Teresa and Ms. Tan will be released soon as they do not deserve this INJUSTICE!

HJ Angus Says:

Much as we don’t like the ISA to be used on the 3 persons, that should also apply to the Ahmad guy.

After all, the police have reports about his behaviour and could have charged him with damage of property, incitement etc.

Especially after the DPM made that public apology. It’s like Ferguson apologising for Cantona’s flying kick and then all is forgotten?
Defies all logic these ISA arrests.

moonant Says:

Stay calm brothers and sisters.. We all as part of a family should not get over react with what Umno is doing now. The worst is yet to come.
First RPK, then Sin chew’s tan, and Ms Kok, and yet nothing happened to ahmad ismail. These are just part of evil plan of umno. Making it obvious that Umno is being double standard and thus fanning racial sentiment among the opposition.

Then the government will detain the rest of the opposition party. Thus, provoking opposition supporter to organize demonstration. During the demo, Umno will dispatch the some phantom and clash with the opposition supporter.

The national media will report the incident as a result of the minorities clashing with the malay. and here comes dalurat and the army.

So, please dont fall into Umno’s trap. and don’t go for demo

pjboy Says:
People voted for YAB Teresa. She had also won with one of the biggest, if not the most, majority among all the MPs. By putting her under the ISA is almost as if putting all those people who voted for her under ISA as well. Every Malaysian demands an explanation for this ridiculous action on YAB Teresa. As well as for the brave journalist & RPK.

owlz Says:
AAARGGHH!!! I think there’s someone wants the Malays

From an Outraged Malaysian parent

BTN’s racist and divisive indoctrination courses

Now that Najib has apologised to non-Malays for Ahmad’s statement, I would like to bring to the attention of Najib the pain endured by the young non-Malay JPA scholars who are required to go through a five-day Biro Tatanegara programme at certain camps in the country. To be fair, many moderate Malay students too cried and were hurt by some racist comments made by the instructors.

As part of the course, which is mandatory before they are sent overseas, all non-Malays are segrgated and given lectures on the history of the country and how the immigration of the Chinese and Indians had taken place. And finally how the Chinese and Indians were given citizenship. The Malays too had their own similar sessions.

The instructors blatantly told them that they should not question the rights and privileges of the Malays as the non-Malays should be thankful that they were given citizenship status and a place to stay on their soil. My daughter together with the other non-Malay students was shocked and went back to their dormitories depressed. And to the Malay students, the instructors told them to be aware of this fact and not to mix too freely with the non-Malays.

A Malay friend of my daughter came back crying to the dormitory saying that she could not take the racist position taken by the government authority. My daughter then began questioning the bumiputra policy and was disgusted with such blatant indoctrination. This incident has also made the students harbour anger and resentment. Their fear for the authorities and losing their scholarships made them keep their cool. I am not exaggerating here - ask all the JPA students to write in anonymously and you will know the truth.

These are young minds being polluted with racism. Tens of thousands of students have gone through this programme and more will be attending it in the future. So can you blame them when they exhibit their racist tendencies when in authority? How could the JPA allow such a syllabus for the cream of the nation, who will one day be entrusted to implement government policies fairly?

So, will Najib take responsibility for the racist syllabus and subsequently the racist remarks and apologise to the tens of thousands of students and parents who were hurt by such hurtful remarks? Of course knowing the BN government, it will deny this. Believe me, this is the ABSOLUTE truth.

My call to Najib is to immediately probe into this claim with the help of a multi-racial team of officers from Suhakam BUT please maintain the anonymity of the young children who have everything to lose. This blatant racism practised and preached by the Barisan Nasional government must stop immediately.
