Festival of Malaysia - Deepavali on 26 October 2011
The entrances of Hindu homes are decorated with the ‘kolam’, an intricate floral design on the ground which signifies religious believes. This religious connotation, revolves around the Goddess of Wealth, the deity Lakshimi. Many believe that the Goddess Lakshimi would only enter a home with a ‘kolam’ at the entrance.

Story: Last time he was sent to a missionary in Tibet after having embarrassed the MI7 in a mission failure. But this time he's the only one who can perhaps divert an attempt on the Chinese Premier's life. The question is can Johnny English really unfold a web of conspiracy running through the various secret services, especially now that he has just a week to do the job?
Movie Review: So what if he does not have a suave knack for accomplishing missions successfully? So what if he acts as a nerd-cum-wannabe James Bond? And so what if he does not fit into the intelligent world of gadgets... this time mystery, spies and the missing link? There's something about Rowan Atkinson that suspense becomes the surprise element even if that means moving from Mr Beans to a sequel of Johnny English (the earlier version was released in 2003). Enter the scene of crime -- MI7 learns there is a plot to assassinate the Chinese premier the day world delegates are to meet. The suspense grows further when Johnny English realises there's a loophole at the MI7 end itself. But then the real suspense is watching Johnny put the next (and wrong) foot forward. Imagine Atkinson trying to get logic into his acts, minding his own business and putting a straight, serious face at most times.

Festival of Malaysia - Deepavali on 26 October 2011
Deepavali (also known as Diwali) is celebrated universally by Hindus and is observed as a public holiday in Malaysia. This festival falls between the month of October and November, the fourteenth day of the Tamil month of Aipasi. It is also known to many as the Festival of Lights.
The word “Deepavali” derives from the combination of the words ‘Dipa’ and ‘Gavali’, the former meaning ‘light’ and the latter meaning ‘a row’. Thus symbolising the rows of lights that can be seen at the houses of Hindu celebrants. As light dispels darkness, this festival symbolises the victory of good over evil.
At the dawn of Deepavali, Hindus perform the ritual oil bath which signifies a cleansing of the body and soul. Following this symbolic rite in purification which marks a new beginning, devotees visit the temple where shrines of Hindu deities are encircled with flower garlands.

Rainbow in the sky @ Kota Damansara, Malaysia.
I saw a rainbow in the sky on the way to work. It is difficult to see it appears in the sky especially in the morning. Rainbow light up my working day.
