After one mission accidentally goes wrong, causing the life of one of his men, the Brain is convinced that this accident has been choreographed: someone is out there plotting to terminate him and his team. He becomes increasingly paranoid, walking on the thin line between reality and delusion.

When he is accosted by a mysterious insurance agent Fong (Richie Ren) who happened to be on the scene of the “accident” as well, the Brain becomes obsessed that this man must be the mastermind behind a conspiracy to take him out. To regain his sanity and to save his life, he must strive to kill Fong before he makes his next move.

Mad Dogs Barking Without Teeth Part Two

So, an update. Someone mentioned to me a post on their site:

WAR IS OVER
I just saw that aznr.net is finally translating their own news! Therefore, I shall stop this immature-ness of "war". SEE wasn't that easy? I don't just go around accusing people unless I see it as a problem. So, if you don't like it, don't mess with our stuff. Just mind your own business and we mind ours. Extremely simple.

I hope you keep up your translating and don't 'borrow' our translations. Then we won't have problems. Face it. Translating your own work, more people appreciate you! We all just want to read the news.

Thank you all for supporting, making this more humorous and making our lives less boring. Thank you.

We will end it off here. I don't hold grudges for too long.

Good Luck AZNR.net! I'm sure you can get by very well without us.
============

LOL, this makes me laugh so hard. War? What war? The thing is, she's apparently too thick or refused to realize that she had absolutely NO CASE to begin with. Maybe she just choose to conveniently ignore all those "EVIDENCE" against her stupid, ridiculous accusations.

QUOTE
SEE wasn't that easy? I don't just go around accusing people unless I see it as a problem.

Yeah, you don't just go around accusing people unless you see a problem of someone doing her job much better than you?

This is what you call denial. Refusal to accept that she was wrong, and now she's come to back down with this lame remark.

"Borrow" your translation? Wait a minute, so now I'm "borrowing" instead of "copying," huh? What's the matter, realized your case is too weak to sustain the "copying" allegation?

I stress, I wouldn't even dream of reading, let alone "borrow" it. The quality of the translations is so horrendous that I have to waste more time to actually guess all the meaning correctly.

Look at the accuser's translation: Poorly worded phrase like

QUOTE
She also defends Kevin Cheng, she said that he's leading this week and it will be gradually carried out later, Netizens do not have to rush now to criticize him yet

Leading what? Leading the criticisms? Leading the pack of mad dogs like yourself? Or leading as the main character in the scene?

QUOTE
and it will be gradually carried out later

It? What's the "It"? All I can think of is Stephen King's IT. Carry out what? Carry out murder? Carry out blind accusations?
=================
So, if I actually copied HER translations, not only do I have to rephrase, reword and fix grammar, I also have to find out and guess the meaning of her translation! Lots of extra work for ME! Why would I copy something of so low quality?

And, you don't hold grudges, but I do! Of course, who likes being accused blindly and wrongly? What, you think you can get away with that, and also sending your dogs to come spamming and disturbing our peace? So until you apologize, the world is going to see how idiotic your actions were.

Not to mention some of those members (I have a good idea whom they are) are resorting to desperate attempts to spam my shoutbox with childish insults. This is what happens when one can't come up with logical reasoning and rely on stupid insults that even a five-year-old can do. Maybe they find it too challenging to come up with a decent comeback instead of just barking around like mad dogs.

Anyway, she can say all she want, but it is evident there was no war to begin with. The world can see how stupid her "case" is, as more and more people come to my blog. If she had any decency at all, she should apologize for blindly and wrongly accusing people without any proof.

Mad Dogs Barking Without Teeth

So, in recent days, a couple of mad dogs came spamming in my shoutbox here. Reason? They seemed infuriated at the allegation that I "copied and pasted" some translated articles from an admin at a forum.

Fair enough. But, let's go further and have a look at these so-called copied translations.

Exhibit No. 1
My translation:

TVB series "Burning Flame III" debuted last week with its first episode peaking at 36 points, and has an average rating of 33 points. This made the series the highest rated first episode on TVB since three years ago. Netizens were engaged in heated discussions on the series. Although most gave positive feedback, there are some who criticized the series. Among the criticisms are lack of challenges portrayed in the series, too many flashback scenes, Kevin Cheng's wooden acting.

The producer of the series, Amy Wong accepted an interview and in responding to the criticisms, she said it's hard to allocate an even screen time for everyone in all the scenes, but she will try to do so in future. She also commented that although Kevin Cheng seems to be the lead actor in the series at the moment, there will be other plots regarding other characters slotted in later. Netizens should not be in a hurry to judge him yet.

========================

Exhibit No. 2
Accuser's translation:


TVB series "Burning Flames III" replaced "The Threshold of A Persona" and did not let us down with the average premiere ratings of 33 points on its first week of broadcast, episode one's rating reached up to 36 points. This makes it the highest ratings of first episodes on TVB since 3 years. Netizens have been engaged in heated discussions on the series, although most gave positive feedback, but others say that there are lack of challenges, including too much messy flashbacks, Kevin Cheng also gets named the new "drives customers away" . The producer of the series Amy Wong Sam Wai accepted an interview and responded to the criticisms, she said that it's really hard to accommodate everyone in every scene, but in the future she will try to. She also defends Kevin Cheng, she said that he's leading this week and it will be gradually carried out later, Netizens do not have to rush now to criticize him yet.

========================

See any difference between those two articles? Of course, apart from all the grammar mistakes, spelling errors and poorly worded phrases in Exhibit No. 2, one may notice that (SURPRISE!) these two are entirely DIFFERENT translations.

Look at the accuser's translation: Poorly worded phrase like "She also defends Kevin Cheng, she said that he's leading this week and it will be gradually carried out later, Netizens do not have to rush now to criticize him yet"

Leading what? Leading the criticisms? Leading the pack of mad dogs like yourself? Or leading as the main character in the scene? "and it will be gradually carried out later"? It? What's the "It"? All I can think of is Stephen King's IT. Carry out what? Carry out murder? Carry out blind accusations?

So, if I actually copied HER translations, not only do I have to rephrase, reword and fix grammar, I also have to find out and guess the meaning of her translation! Lots of extra work for ME! Why would I copy something of so low quality?

Let's compare another.

Exhibit No. 3
My translation:


Earlier, Elanne Kong has caused a stir in the entertainment industry by alleging that a male artist whom she once collaborated with had pursued her. This artist was rumored to be Pakho Chau or Ron Ng. Ron Ng was suspected the most because he had helped Elanne with writing her new book.

Elanne will be releasing her new "Little Princess" book on July 22nd and she has invited Michael Tse, Michael Miu and Ron Ng to help her with writing it.

She claimed there was a male artist whom she had once collaborated with, pursuing her. Ron stressed that he is not Elanne's "Lucky Prince" and the two often refer to each other as "brothers". He also said: "Among all the girls I have seen, Elanne Kong is one of the most unattractive ones. She is not pretty, not cute and not that hard working. But she does rely on herself to survive in the industry, and she is also a talented newcomer."

Although Ron was vicious in his statement, his relationship with Elanne was pretty good. He expressed that during their filming sessions, he would often play with her. Once, they used rattan whips to whack each other, running all the way to the costume room.

========================

Exhibit No. 4
Accuser's translation:


Earlier Elanne Kong exposed that she had a male artist pursuer who once collaborated with her and this had become one of the main topics in the entertainment circle. People suspect the artists could be Pakkho Chau or Ron Ng. The person who is most suspcious is Ron Ng because he helped Elanne write her new book. In order to kill off all the suspicions, he strongly stomped on Elanne saying she was "not pretty" and "not cute".

Will be releasing her new "Little Princess" book on July 22nd, Elanne Kong used her entertainment circle connections and invited Michael Tse, Michael Miu and rumored boyfriend Ron Ng to help her out in writing it.

Earlier Elanne exposed that there was a male artist who she once collaborated that was strongly pursuing her, coincidentally Ron Ng was the suspected pursuer. To help a friend and to kill off the suspicions, Ron stressed that he is not Elanne's "Lucky Prince" and the two would often refer each other as "brothers". He also bounced one statement to Elanne: "Among all the girls I've seen, Elanne Kong is one of the most not pretty, not cute and not that hard working girls. But she relies on herself to survive in the industry and also she does have talent as a newcomer."

Although Ron did not spare Elanne a chance, Ron and Elanne's relationship is definitely very good. He expressed that during the time when they were filming, he would often play with her: "One time we were using rattan whips to "fit" each other and we were playing all the way into the costume room!"

========================


So why on earth is that "copying"? Look at Exhibit No. 4 - the fella can't even come up with an appropriate English translation for "fit" (Cantonese word for "whack"). And she said I copied her?!

Don't ask me, there's no logic, let alone reasonable argument for it.

Then the accuser, desperate to keep up with my logic, went a step further and accused me of committing "plagiarism" by the definition she quoted below:

What do I mean by those?
- The Poor Disguise: Although the writer has retained the essential content of the source, he or she has altered the paper's appearance slightly by changing key words and phrases.

- The Labor of Laziness: The writer takes the time to paraphrase most of the paper from other sources and make it all fit together, instead of spending the same effort on original work.

Source: Plagiarism.org

=======================

Haha, okay, that is fine too. Actually, that could have been a reasonable argument. Could have. Except for one problem. A MAJOR problem.

This "Plagiarism" only applies to ORIGINALLY WRITTEN articles. So, let's say if this accuser were to write her own articles, and I took them and para-phrase them to my liking, you could wiggle your finger at me and said, yes, maybe I was guilty of "plagiarizing" by "the poor disguise" and "the labor of laziness" ways.

But, hold on - These articles weren't written by her! Hah, far from it.

Instead, they were merely TRANSLATED by her. So, in other words, the articles that I translated came from the same source.
It then makes sense that both articles would "retain the essential source of content" because, DUH, they came from the same source.

So, you can see, what a big joke for her to rely on that. Simple logic, right? Nope.

It seems that she and a bunch of her mad dogs are too retarded to get it.

She also kept whining about how I went and copied her translated work and then go about "changing a few words."

Well, HELLO? Take a look at those exhibits. Are they just changes of "a few words"? HELL NO, they are completely different! Even a pre-school kid would be able to "spot the difference."

Feel free to keep whining please, and show the rest of the world how stupid and baseless your accusations are. Now you are accusing me solely based on the fact that you translated them first, so therefore, I must have "copied from you and changed the words"?? It doesn't make sense, no matter how I look at it.

You keep whining that I copied your stuff. Well, show me two single sentences that look exactly the same, I beg you. Just one, out of the all the articles you accused me of copying.

What PROOF do you have that I copied YOUR translations and then take the trouble to rephrase all the sentences and use different words, instead of doing my own translations?! See how dumb and illogical your claim is? Here's a tip. The next time you want to accuse people of something, try to come up with some proof before screaming bloody murder.

I guess I'll stop ranting and just let the evidence speak for itself. I don't have to go on, anyone with some decency to take a look at the articles would know what I mean.

And keep sending your dogs to spam here and in my forum. It'll only show the rest of the world exactly what kind of attitude you people have. Your dogs are apparently, so loyal till they are willing to oversee the absolute lack of logicality and reasonableness in your accusations. Wait a minute, I think I even know one of them. Malaysian fella, yes. I know who you are, and if you continue, I won't hesitate to announce your name here, doggy.

Until you come up with some rational logic and proof to back your accusations up, I suggest you quit whining, otherwise, people are going to see just how retarded your actions are. And the funniest thing is, you accused me of copying you when I came up with much better worded translations than yours? How is that possible?


Oh yeah, not enough with that. They stoop even lower, addressing those people who have replied in MY forum to back me up with this message:

Dear So-and-so,

Your leader did not know how to credit the ORIGINAL translator of the news articles. Please do not take her as a role model. You will either get arrested for plagiarism in the academia or you will be sweeping the floors for McDonald's. You do not want to go on these routes. You will not have a bright future.

Your ashamed leader made a mistake. Your forum is now plagued with the label: plagiarism. Please do not get brainwashed by her. She is a wild animal leader.
=======================

LOL. Yes, see how childish she is? How crazy she is? Maybe she's a psycho, I dunno. But to start with accusing people blindly of copying without a single proof and then attack others who backed me up is simply pathetic. Oh yeah, pathetic is more like it. Since she has resorted to pure insults when she finds herself losing to pure reasoning.


If anyone is interested to know the identity of this accuser and the forum, e-mail me and I'd gladly divulge the info.

The King Of Pop dies at 50



(CNN) -- Entertainer Michael Jackson died after being taken to a hospital on Thursday after suffering cardiac arrest, CNN confirmed.

Lt. Fred Corral, the Los Angeles County Coroner said Jackson was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. Thursday.

He also said Jackson was unresponsive when he arrived at the hospital.

Brian Oxman, a Jackson family attorney, said he was told by brother Randy Jackson that Michael Jackson collapsed at his home in west Los Angeles, California, Thursday morning.

Family members were told of the situation and were either at the hospital or en route, Oxman said.

"I can only tell you that the family members are crying," Oxman said.

Fire Capt. Steve Ruda told CNN a 911 call came in from a west Los Angeles residence at 12:21 p.m.

Ruda said Jackson was treated and transferred to the UCLA Medical Center.

The music icon from Gary, Indiana, is known as the "King of Pop." Jackson had many No. 1 hits and his "Thriller" is the best-selling album of all time.

Jackson is the seventh of nine children in a well-known musical family. He has three children, Prince Michael I, Paris and Prince Michael II.

At the medical center, every entrance to the emergency room was blocked by security guards. Even hospital staffers were not permitted to enter. A few people stood inside the waiting area, some of them crying.

A large crowd was also gathering outside the hospital, according to video footage.

Outside Jackson's Bel Air home, police arrived on motorcycles. The road in front of the home was closed in an attempt to hold traffic back, but several people were gathered outside the home.

Jackson also had some legal troubles later in his career.

He was acquitted of child molestation charges after a media circus of a trial in Santa Maria, California, in March 2006.

Prosecutors charged the singer with four counts of lewd conduct with a child younger than 14; one count of attempted lewd conduct; four counts of administering alcohol to facilitate child molestation; and one count of conspiracy to commit child abduction, false imprisonment or extortion.

------------------------------------------------------

Michael Jackson has died at age 50 after being rushed to UCLA Medical Center, NBC News has confirmed.

Los Angeles Fire Department Capt. Steve Ruda told the L.A. Times that Jackson was not breathing when paramedics arrived at his home and CPR was performed.

TMZ.com reported that he may have suffered cardiac arrest.

Jackson had been due to start a series of comeback concerts in London on July 13 running until March 2010. The singer, whose hits included “Thriller” and “Billie Jean,” had been rehearsing in the Los Angeles area for the past two months.

The shows for the 50 London concerts sold out within minutes of going on sale in March.

His lifetime record sales tally is believed to be around 750 million, which, added to the 13 Grammy Awards he received, makes him one of the most successful entertainers of all time.

He lived as a virtual recluse since his acquittal in 2005 on charges of child molestation.

There were concerns about Jackson’s health in recent years but the promoters of the London shows, AEG Live, said in March that Jackson had passed a 4-1/2 hour physical examination with independent doctors.

Jackson was born on Aug. 29, 1958, in Gary, Ind., the seventh of nine children. Five Jackson boys — Jackie, Tito, Jermaine, Marlon and Michael — first performed together at a talent show when Michael was 6.

They walked off with first prize and went on to become a best-selling band, The Jackson Five, and then The Jackson 5.

Jackson made his first solo album in 1972, and released “Thriller” in 1982, which became a smash hit that yielded seven top-10 singles. The album sold 21 million copies in the United States and at least 27 million worldwide.

The next year, he unveiled his signature “moonwalk” dance move while performing “Billie Jean” during an NBC special.

In 1994, Jackson married Elvis Presley’s only child, Lisa Marie, but the marriage ended in divorce in 1996. Jackson married Debbie Rowe the same year and had two children before splitting in 1999. The couple never lived together.

Jackson has three children named Prince Michael I, Paris Michael and Prince Michael II, who was known for his brief public appearance when his father held him over the railing of a hotel balcony, causing widespread criticism.

Source: MSNBC.com

----------------------------------------------

Paramedics were called to the singer's home around midday local time on Thursday after he stopped breathing and suffered a suspected cardiac arrest.

He was rushed by ambulance to a local medical centre, but his death was announced shortly afterwards.

The star, who had a history of health problems, had been due to begin a series of comeback concerts in the UK on 13 July.

He had a history of health problems and had not completed a concert tour in 12 years.

US media reports said paramedics were called to the singer's house in Bel Air at midday.

They performed CPR on Jackson and rushed him to the UCLA medical centre.

Crowds have begun to gather outside the facility, whose emergency centre has been roped off by police.

Jackson began his career as a child in family group The Jackson 5.

He then went on to achieve global fame as a solo artist with smash hits such as "Thriller" and "Bad".

But the singer has been dogged by controversy and money trouble in recent years, becoming a virtual recluse.

He is survived by three children, Michael Joseph Jackson Jr, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince Michael Jackson II.

OMG, this fking sucks!!! My idol is dead. The King Of Pop is gone.

MJ was slated to have concerts in UK, and now this happens. Life is so unpredictable.

Goodbye MJ, you will always be remembered and you're forever a legend. I don't care what those child molest crap reports said about you and how many screw-up plastic surgeries you had, you're still my hero.

Thank you for the great music. You will be missed. :(

Release date(s):

Plot:

QUANTUM OF SOLACE continues the high octane adventures of James Bond (DANIEL CRAIG) in CASINO ROYALE. Betrayed by Vesper, the woman he loved, 007 fights the urge to make his latest mission personal. Pursuing his determination to uncover the truth, Bond and M (JUDI DENCH) interrogate Mr White (JESPER CHRISTENSEN) who reveals the organization which blackmailed Vesper is far more complex and dangerous than anyone had imagined. Forensic intelligence links an Mi6 traitor to a bank account in Haiti where a case of mistaken identity introduces Bond to the beautiful but feisty Camille (OLGA KURYLENKO), a woman who has her own vendetta. Camille leads Bond straight to Dominic Greene (MATHIEU AMALRIC), a ruthless business man and major force within the mysterious organization. On a mission that leads him to Austria, Italy and South America, Bond discovers that Greene, conspiring to take total control of one of the world's most important natural resources, is forging a deal with the exiled General Medrano (JOAQUIN COSIO). Using his associates in the organization, and manipulating his powerful contacts within the CIA and the British government, Greene promises to overthrow the existing regime in a Latin American country, giving the General control of the country in exchange for a seemingly barren piece of land. In a minefield of treachery, murder and deceit, Bond allies with old friends in a battle to uncover the truth. As he gets closer to finding the man responsible for the betrayal of Vesper, 007 must keep one step ahead of the CIA, the terrorists and even M, to unravel Greene's sinister plan and stop his organization.

The ruler of Wu, Sun Quan (Chang Chen), calls on the rival warlord Liu Bei (You Yong) for help, but their two armies are still badly outnumbered. However, the strategists Zhou Yu (Tony Leung) and Zhuge Liang (Takeshi Kaneshiro) see that Cao Cao's army is unused to battling on the sea. With 200,000 men, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang defeated Cao Cao's army at the Yangtze River.

On the surface, John seems totally helpless, but in reality, he’s been staging a major comeback for months. Just as he is finally ready to turn his fortune around, however, his only son is kidnapped.

Senior Inspector Molline Szeto (Sammi Cheng) is the rising star in the police force, who is well praised for busting crime with her characteristic sangfroid and precision. However, in matters of love, she is totally at wit’s end. After dating the same man for more than ten years with no likely prospect of an imminent wedding, she determines to cut the knot once and for all, before she becomes too old for childbirth. Poised at the crossroad of her life, she is thrilled to be assigned to investigate the kidnap of John’s son.

John dispatches his whole gang to ferret out his son’s whereabouts, only to find out that his rivals are redeploying people in China to assail him. Just when he is about to order an all-out fightback, Molline suddenly arrives with her team to garrison at his house. Spurning her at first, he soon finds her critical analysis of the situation at hand both apt and useful. An unlikely cooperation between cops and crooks thus ensues, leading to conflicts and clashes galore at every step till the very end.
