Madonna has released figures varying by £21 million as to how much estranged husband Guy Ritchie will receive in their divorce settlement.
Guy Ritchie could get £21 million less in his divorce settlement from Madonna.
The singer has released two conflicting statements regarding the payout, sparking confusion over how much the 'RocknRolla' director will receive in total.
The first statement from Madonna's spokesperson Liz Rosenberg, released on Monday (15.12.08), stated Guy would receive between £50 and £60 million in cash and property.
But in a following email to the BBC, Madonna's team claimed Guy would get $60-70 million - which converts to between £39 and £46 million.

Tanam 150 susuk berlian pikat VIP

KUALA LUMPUR: Persaingan sengit untuk mengejar pelanggan VIP mendorong segelintir pelayan pelanggan (GRO) sanggup berhabis puluhan ribu ringgit untuk kelihatan cantik luar biasa dengan memasang susuk berlian di seluruh anggota badan, termasuk kemaluan. Mereka sanggup mengetepikan ajaran Islam yang melarang amalan terbabit semata-mata bimbang pelanggan tetap beralih kepada GRO lain yang lebih jelita dan menggoda. Perbuatan memasang susuk itu didedahkan seorang bekas GRO dikenali sebagai Nita, 20, kepada wartawan Harian Metro yang melakukan siasatan mengenai amalan susuk di kalangan wanita, apatah lagi GRO. Nita mendakwa memasang lebih 150 susuk berlian pada seluruh anggota badan, termasuk 30 susuk berlian di muka dan kemaluan untuk hidup dalam dunia GRO yang serba mewah.
Katanya, dia hidup mewah dengan wang simpanan lebih RM200,000 apabila sering menjadi buruan golongan VIP yang tertipu dengan kecantikan dan layanan istimewanya.

Bertemu Sheikh Muszaphar
MENERUSI satu temujanji yang diaturkan, saya berkesempatan bertemu dengan Angkasawan Negara, Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor di sebuah hotel terkemuka di ibu kota pada 26 November lepas.
Ketika itu Sheikh baru tiba dari KLIA. Katanya beliau ke Bintulu untuk menyampaikan ceramah di beberapa buah sekolah di sana.
Pertemuan diatur berikutan wujud beberapa dakwaan pihak tertentu terhadap beliau sebagaimana yang dilaporkan media. Apa pun kita menunggu hasil siasatan yang sedang dijalankan oleh Kementerian Sains, Teknologi dan Innovasi (Mosti).
Dalam pertemuan yang berlangsung selama dua jam itu, kami tidak diganggu sesiapa. Tiada pengawal, tiada pengiring.

Madoff's massive dupe

MADRID: Two months after being hammered by the collapse of global investment bank Lehman Brothers, banks and investment funds in Europe are trembling in the face of the massive fraud allegedly perpetrated by New York broker Bernard Madoff.
Private European banks and investors specialised in the placement of high-risk hedge funds could have exposure of up to several billion dollars in the scandal.
Madoff was arrested last Thursday for allegedly defrauding his customers through a giant pyramid scheme, with prosecutors alleging that the 70-year-old, a decades-long veteran of Wall Street, confessed to losing at least US50 billion (RM178.7 billion) in the so-called Ponzi scheme.

1st. Anniversary Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar to ISS

Salam Dr Sheikh, how time really flies huh? it is already 1 year since your "journey" to International Space Station -- ISS. And fyi, while you (together with Russian Yuri Malechenko and Peggy Whitson) were still in ISS, Hanif used my NB to draw the pics (below).

For a kid of 9-y-o (last year), it's my opinion that Hanif is good in IT, art, science and imagination etc (he he he), what say you, Doc?

update – response to emails sent direct to my mailbox on jom pi Muar. tq all.

Journey hours KL - Pt. Jawa, Muar is about 3 hours (normal drive by Kelisa – Limited Edition, even if you drive Porsche Cayenne Turbo too, you can’t reach Pt. Jawa by 1 hour – you know la Muar trunk road -- bumpy, many holes, got cow/chicken/cat crossing road everywhere….bicyle/trishaw some more).

Perodua Kelisa - Limited Edition

Business hours – (if not mistaken) 24 hours (alternately open by the stalls' owners). Fish to suggest – Pari, Jenahak, Ikan Merah and Sembilang laut – these are all fresh and good for asam pedas. Price range – very reasonable (what more if you are on company’s entertainment claim!...hello fren, when is our next trip…). SMS stands for Sekolah Menengah Sains Muar (Tanjung Agas).

on record, we have so many personalities from Muar who very proud of this town i.e Tun Datuk Dr.Hj Awang Hassan, ulama-ulama and tokoh-tokoh agama, Nash & Lefthanded, Nana, Ramlah Ram etc and not to forget - Parameswara, Sultan Mansur Shah & Sultan Ali!....

(btw, Nash & Dr. Sheikh Muszaphar-the astronaut (x-MRSM Muar), if you read this BLOG, pls write something (very good about Muar..) ok!)

and just for info (before I wrap up this topic) Muar is actually the land of Johor MBs (Mentri Besar - present and past) and the land of Malaysia’s PM-in-waiting (don't know when but wait and see..)
