'Mission: Impossible 5': Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie team up once again

'Mission: Impossible 5': Tom Cruise and Christopher McQuarrie team up once again

Christopher McQuarrie will direct the fifth episode of the "Mission: Impossible" series, Paramount Pictures and Skydance Productions have revealed.

"Mission: Impossible 5" will see Christopher McQuarrie and Tom Cruise working together once more, after their collaboration last year on "Jack Reacher," a violent thriller that earned critical acclaim, based on a book by Lee Child.

McQuarrie shouldn't have a hard time getting into the "Mission: Impossible" atmosphere, as he took part in writing the last one: "Ghost Protocol" in 2011, directed by Brad Bird.

Started in 1996, the "Mission: Impossible" saga is based on a famous espionage TV series from the 1960-1970s. The four previous adventures of agent Ethan Hunt made over $2 million in total throughout the world.

Each film has been directed by a different director --  Brian De Palma, John Woo, JJ Abrams or Brad Bird, soon to be joined by Christopher McQuarrie.

Mahathir: Former Singapore premier is old

Tun Mahathir: Former Singapore premier is old

PUTRAJAYA:  He's a 90-year-old man. We (should) give allowance to him, (just) like people who give allowance to me.
Former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad, 88, said this when asked to comment on former Singapore premier Lee Kuan Yew's latest book, One Mans View of The World, which was launched on Tuesday.

Among others, the book quoted Lee as saying: Malaysias race-based politics placed the country at a disadvantage and was voluntarily shrinking the talent pool.

Commenting further, Dr Mahathir said: He is entitled to use his opinion where there is free speech, especially in Singapore.

The former premier was met by reporters at the Hari Raya Aidilfitri open house of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and his cabinet ministers at Seri Perdana here today.

In the 400-page book, Singapore's founding prime minister shares his views on international politics, the global economy, climate change and more.

Lee said Malaysia was prepared to lose talent in order to maintain the dominance of one race and the government there (Malaysia) was now somewhat more willing to acknowledge this loss, by trying to lure Malaysians back, their efforts may be too little, too late.

Meanwhile, MCA president Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek said here were other forces which contributed to 'brain drain' as people were looking for better pay, better working environment and infrastructure, and security.

His deputy, Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai, said Malaysia did not want any one race more dominant than another, in order to preserve harmony.- BERNAMA

'Satu Hari Di Hari Raya', lagu raya yang sempurna

'Satu Hari Di Hari Raya', lagu raya yang sempurna

Hari Raya Aidil Fitri adalah hari perayaan umat Islam seantero dunia bermula pada 1 hari bulan Syawal setelah berpuasa sebulan pada bulan Ramadhan. Ia disambut sebulan dan kemeriahan Aidil Fitri ini adalah magika yang sungguh luar biasa. 

 Sambutannya mengikut bentuk acuan adat dan budaya sesuatu kaum dan komuniti atau lebih besar sesebuah negara. Betapa agama Islam itu indah meresapi setiap urat nadi manusia tanpa mengenal sempadan bangsa dan negara.

Tidak terkecuali di Malaysia, banyak lagu raya menggambarkan suasana meriah hari mulia ini. Sehebat mana pun diasak arus kemodenan, keajaiban Syawal langsung sahaja mengembalikan fitrah manusia untuk kembali ke akar budaya dan agamanya. Sejauh mana pun berada apabila fajar Syawal terbit, fitrah akan terusik menikmati kesyahduannya.

Lagu-lagu raya kita menceritakan tentang keghairahan anak rantau kembali ke desa bertemu orang tua dan berkumpul bersama keluarga, kegembiraan kanak-kanak mengumpul duit raya dan bermain mercun, hidangan makanan tradisi seperti ketupat, lontong, wajik dan dodol yang dinanti-nantikan.

 Digambarkan juga betapa sedihnya jika hari raya tanpa ibu bapa dan keluarga, anak rantau yang tidak dapat pulang berhari raya, kehilangan kekasih dan bermacam-macam lagi. Penulis lagu raya telah menggambarkan semua ‘cara’ menyambut ritual ini. Suka mahu pun duka. Ia adalah tradisi amalan turun-temurun.
