‘We are ready for Putrajaya’

By Luke Rintod of FMT

KOTA BELUD: Pakatan Rakyat is ready to take over the federal government from the long-ruling and corrupt-ridden Barisan Nasional. 

Speaking to some 300 locals at a Chinese school hall here last weekend, DAP supremo Lim Kit Siang said even BN leaders know it and they are now afraid of losing power.

“BN is now afraid of us, they dare not dissolve Parliament. They are really afraid of Pakatan… they dare not hold simultaneous ceramah [to compete] with us now.

NASA telescope snaps most detailed photos of the Sun ever taken

By Tecca of Today in Tech

Short-lived mission provides an astounding new perspective on our life-giving star.
We've always been warned never to look directly at the sun, but on July 11 a team of scientists from NASA did exactly that. They were using a specialized telescope called the High Resolution Coronal Imager (Hi-C for short) and the resulting photos are nothing short of spectacular.
The Hi-C telescope was launched onboard a 58-foot-tall rocket which carried it along a sub-orbital trajectory for only 10 minutes.
For five of those minutes, a camera mounted inside the telescope snapped 165 pictures of an area on the Sun that scientists had picked out nearly a month prior.

Pairin is now desperate

PENAMPANG: PBS president Joseph Pairin Kitingan is easily agitated these days and his “desperation” is showing itself, said his long-time friend and a former party associate.

Fredoline Edwin Lojingki, 71, believes that Pairin, 72, is worried that he and his party might lose in the coming general election.

He said Pairin’s recent labelling of his younger brother Jeffrey as liar was a “manifestation of his desperation” to cling to a fast disappearing aura”, especially with the younger generation of Sabahans.

Jeffrey helms the surging State Reform Party (STAR) whose backbone supporters are Sabahans who are under 40. The party claims it has 175,000 members and has made significant inroads into Kadazandusun and Murut (KDM) areas which were once PBS and Upko strongholds. Both PBS and Upko are Barisan Nasional allies.
