Malaysian Nude Squat, questions...

A certain malay lady decided to sue the police force for secretly recording her doing nude squats and subsequently causes a furor. She is sueing for RM10million for damage as ppl know who she is and she can't cope with the trauma/stress/watever.

the furor was causing strains on malaysia's foreign relations, particulary with China (the new host which future malaysian parasitic economy growth depends on). Malaysia is suffering on both fronts as local chinese comunity too are more than displeased too.

My Questions are as follows:

1. the subsequent furor following the nude squats uncovering was enormous, as it seems to be a nude CHinese doing it. the point is that NO ONE knew during the event on who the person is, so how come a malay female can be a target/attention in the first place to cause her distress?

2. Was the malay females identity ever released publicly? i don't think so

My Theory on this case:
1. A Chinese was doing the nude squats. for political and diplomatical reasons a malay female (possibly one of many nude squat victims) was named as a "scapegoat".

2. since it is malay, the damage was controlled and disaster averted.

3. the sueing was staged/backed by the government after the event cooled off to add to the realism, this is because there are still doubters of the actual nationality and race of the victim.

the truth is somewhere in putrajaya office...

Fans lose trousers to gain entry
By Harry Peart
BBC sports correspondent, Berlin

Dutch fans watch Ivory Coast match
Hundreds in the crowd were in their underpants
Football's governing body has explained why up to 1,000 Dutch fans watched a World Cup tie wearing no trousers.

Around 1,000 fans arrived for the Ivory Coast tie in their traditional bright orange trousers - but bearing the logo and name of a Dutch brewery.

To protect the rights of the official beer they were denied entry, so the male fans promptly removed the trousers and watched the game in underpants.

Fifa said an attempt at an "ambush" publicity campaign was not allowed.

Fifteen major companies have paid up to $50m (£27m) each for the right to be official partners at this World Cup.

The American firm Anheuser Busch, which makes Budweiser, won the exclusive right to promote and sell its beverage in the stadiums and other venues.

There has been a wider resentment in Germany that a US brewery has the exclusive rights in a country which prides itself on the quality of its beer and has very strict laws governing its composition.

Roger that

whenever pilots say "roger, that" it means either yes, or the message had been received.

soa where does it come from?

here's what i found,

"The word is also used in radio communications to indicate receipt of a message. From around 1938 it was the military phonetic for the letter "R" abbreviation for "Received," later replaced by "Romeo."

In the old days of radio when Morse code was still used, radiomen used the letter "R", dot dash dot (di-dah-dit) as a quick way to transmit acknowledgement of transmissions or as a "yes." When voice radiotelephony was developed, the old radiomen stuck to the "R" as meaning yes. Since the phonetic alphabet for "R" then was Roger, the carryover was a natural logical development.

It is still used today in military parlance to acknowledge the receipt of a command or orders, i.e. "Roger, returning to base" or "Roger, Wilco or "Roger, that"." With the widespread use of cell phones and SMS (Short Message Service) or "text" messaging, Roger is slowly being replaced by "K" for OK outside of military use."


if i ever get into "who wants to be a millionaire" i wish that would be the question that won be £1M.
