From Jakarta With Love

Have you watched Star Wars Episode III ? Are you recognizing one of stars in that movie? No, no, no… not that one, but this one: Hayden Christensen. What’s special with him?

Why people like him? Playing the modern version of one of film’s most renowned villains, Hayden Christensen has given a whole new generation of Star Wars fans a reason to love, and hate, Darth Vader. The Canadian star is an intense, powerful actor who, with two highly high-profile films already to his credit, has a long career ahead of him in Hollywood.

Why is he famous? Given the task of portraying Anakin Skywalker (a.k.a Darth Vader) in Star Wars: Episode II and Episode III of the second leg of George Lucas’ uber-famous sci-fi series, Hayden Christensen has emerged from obscurity to become one of the hottest young actors in Hollywood. Time will tell if he can escape the Star Wars shadow once the series is done, but if work in Shattered Glass and Life as a House are any indication, he should do just fine.

Brad Pitt is astonished by the amount of money big-hearted actress Angelina Jolie donates to charity –and is convinced the screen beauty is more interested in helping good causes than making movies. The hunky actor, known for his own generosity after his high profile humanitarian visits to poverty-stricken Africa, has praised his Mr and Mrs Smith co-star’s frequent acts of kindness, despite speculation surrounding his relationship with Jolie following his shock split from Jennifer Aniston. He says, "Angelina donates staggering amounts of money. She probably makes money so she can give more away. That seems to be more her concern than films."

Yes…? And you donate your sperm into hers? Oh… My!

Let’s face it; an unattached man is often viewed as a swinging bachelor, while a single woman is seen as a lonely old maid. Thats why, many women settle for average men. These are the reasons:

(1) Obviously, if there are few other men around, one man bound to become a valuable commodity. It’s simply the law of supply and demand applied to relationships;

(2) While men’s tend to focus on power, women’s focus on looks and presentation. Ladies who feel that they have little to offer in the looks department are usually willing to settle for a less-than-perfect man;

(3) By about 30, the biological clock is ticking loudly. Single girls have already watched many of their friends get married, settle down, and start popping out babies. Those pesky nesting instincts are urging her to start accumulating appliances or furniture and hook male fast;

(4) Like men, women sometimes go through dating dry spells. In addition, paranoia kicks in and the typical woman will begin to wonder –is there something wrong with me? Am I not attractive to men anymore? Then she begin to loosen her standards for men.

Is that true…?

On July 1995, author of Surviving the Feminization of America and founder of MENTOR (an organization advocating healthy masculinity), Rich Zubaty, protested the swelling tide of anti-male and shaming of men in the media. A decade later, emasculate actions seem stronger. Read The War Against Boys by Christina Hoff Summers, No More Mr. Nice Guy! by psychologist Dr. Robert Glover and Being a Man in a Woman’s World by Dennis Neder –all arguing that contemporary men are being robbed of their essential masculinity. Mel Gibson’s cotton candy pander-fest What Women Want and some typical television sitcoms tell the sad story about men: Everybody Loves Raymond, Friends, etc.

Hmmm… are now women feminizing men ? Just ask yourself, man…!

Tells about a man who dies in a tragic accident, trying to save a little girl from a falling cart. With his final breath, he feels two small hands in his –and then nothing. He awakens in the afterlife, where he learns that heaven is not a lush Garden of Eden, but a place where your earthly life is explained to you by five people who were in it. These people may have been loved ones or distant strangers. Yet each of them changed your path forever. Oh, ya, ini karya Mitch Albom yang kesohor lewat novel best seller Tuesdays with Morrie itu. You must READ it !

Esperantina, the small town in Brazilia, has celebrated the first Orgasm Day. They spent that day with lectures about sex, impotence and the importance of orgasm. A free production of The Vagina Monologues was also put on at the local theatre for residents. Town mayor Felipe Santolia said, "I think that the orgasm issue is a very important and modern one."
