Proteus

Proteus is the first full size WAM-V - Wave Adaptive Modular Vessel - a new class of watercraft based on a patented technology that delivers a radically new seagoing experience.
Unlike conventional boats, the hulls of a WAM-V conform to the surface of the water. A WAM-V does not push, slap or pierce the waves. She utilizes flexibility to adapt her structure and shape to the water surface. Instead of forcing the water to conform to the hull, she gives and adjusts; she "dances" with the waves.A superstructure is flexibly connected to specially designed inflatable pontoons called sponsons by several components that actually move in relation to one another. A WAM-V has springs, shock absorbers and ball joints to articulate the vessel and mitigate stresses to structure, payload and crew. Two engine pods, containing the propulsion and ancillary systems, are fastened to the hulls with special hinges that keep the propellers in the water at all times.Modular
The payload module on a WAM-V can be switched with a different one in less than an hour, transforming the WAM-V into another vessel for a different use. Some examples of possible payload modules include:
In most versions, the payload module is a self-contained craft that can lower to the surface, detach and operate under its own power.
A full size 100-foot WAM-V with 12 tons full load and 2,000 gallons of fuel aboard, Proteus has ocean crossings and long-range mission capabilities of up to 5,000 miles. Once she has reached her destination, her low draft (8 inches forward and 16 inches aft, at half load) allows operations in river deltas, shallow littoral waters and lagoons.
Users with limited experience can learn to pilot her quickly because she has the responsiveness and maneuverability of a small powerboat.
The invention and original design is by Ugo Conti, Ph.D., D. Eng. and it was co-designed by Jim Antrim of Antrim Associates, Naval Architects.
Environmentally Friendly
The WAM-V technology is environmentally friendly by its very nature and design. In spite of the large size necessary to negotiate the open ocean, the WAM-V produces a minimum wake. Being ultra light, its anchors are those of a much smaller vessel, thus decreasing disruption to the ocean floor. Fuel consumption is significantly less than that of other vessels with comparable characteristics. The WAM-V, with her light weight, very low draft and soft hulls, is kind and forgiving to everything she comes in contact with.
WAM-V is a Trade Mark of Marine Advanced Research, Inc., a privately held California corporation.

In Malaysia, decorations or statues of pigs are an unusual sight
Sunday marks the start of the Year of the Golden Pig, which is believed to be particularly auspicious. The festivities have already been getting under way across many parts of Asia, with a large number of businesses shutting for the break.
Chinese New Year is a time for people to spend with their families, visit relatives and friends, hold feasts, buy new clothes and exchange red envelopes of gift money called ang pow. The Year of the Golden Pig falls once every 60 years.
The traditional red lanterns - a symbol of good luck - are being hung up, but this year, however, in Malaysia, decorations or statues of pigs are an unusual sight. The Year of the Pig is celebrated with greater restraint and sensitivity in Asia countries such as Indonesia and Malaysia with large Muslim populations, which view pigs as offensive and unclean.
Some soothsayers warn that the pig can bring turbulence, and warn of a rise in natural disasters and conflict in 2007.

Gem stones, my foot!
The stones (at left) allegedly produced by Siti's toe.
NST Pix by Nashairi Mohd Nawi.
The toe belongs to a 23-year-old girl, Siti Suhana Saadon, from Taman Cempaka in Durian Tunggal, near Alor Gajah who had become an overnight sensation when TV3 aired the bizarre story of crystal-like stones popping out from beneath her toe nail.
Her rubber-tapper mother Kamariah Komeng, 52, said Siti Suhana's left toenail has been discharging crystal-like beads over the past three months.
A medical specialist has expressed interest in checking Siti Suhana's condition, describing that it was unusual. "The stones looked like gems," said the doctor who is attached to the UKM Faculty of Medicine.
The Star, however, got the last word when it exposed this elaborate hoax. After Siti Suhana Saadon was admitted to the Putra Specialist Centre in Malacca on Thursday afternoon, doctors bandaged her left toe with gauze and sealed it with adhesive plaster.

Nothing here: No crystal-like beads or other out-of-the-ordinary objects
can be seen after Dr Senasi unwrapped Siti Suhana's left big toe on Saturday.
There was none.
"As we can see, there is neither any crystal nor any other foreign object here," he said and proceeded to dress the toes with a new set of gauze.
Gem stones, my foot.

Africans treated like shit in Malaysia
Incidents may mar Malaysia's tourism bid
One of the reasons blacks are treated this way in Malaysia is because there are a lot of Africans involved in criminal activities here. And, quite frankly, Malaysians are, by and large, pretty much fed-up and therefore these blacks and their like are not welcome in Malaysia.
I have personally dealt with African tenants who have not paid rent, people with implausible names like "Mr Fine" and "Prince." They seem to congregate in certain neighbourhoods like Damansara Damai and Batu 9, Cheras. Many claim to be students, footballers, or even, as one clearly incorrigible conman notoriously did, football coach to the Malaysian national and Selangor state teams, but are really nothing more than confidence tricksters.
Having said that, there is also a sizeable community of blacks in Cyberjaya, but they comprise of MMU students and are not necessarily associated with criminal activity.
Everyday, I get bombarded by Nigerian scammers who send e-mails trying to con me into parting with some money. One of the old scams is the "bovine medicine" scam, where they claim to have a dairy farmer in the UK willing to buy some antibiotic for cows at an exorbitant mark-up. The implausible thing is, they also give you the contact details of the seller of the drugs, who are themselves, in reality.
What they try to get you to do is to pay cash for the meds with the promise of them getting an unsuspecting farmer to pay for it at many times the price you paid for. Of course, the buyer never pays you because there's no such farmer in the first place. If you're greedy and gullible, you may well fall for this scam.
However, if you're level-headed you'd realise that since they have the buyer in hand and also know the seller, why do they need you to conclude the deal for them? Its not as if you're some world-renown expert in veterinary pharmaceuticals. Neither is Malaysia on the leading edge of pharmaceutical production that UK farmers have to source meds from here.
These Africans must be pretty stupid to think we'd fall for a scam like that. Its these stupid Africans that we want sent back to Nigeria or whatever AIDS-infected cesspit in Africa they came from.
As for the rest, Selamat Datang ke Visit Malaysia Year 2007, please pay cash, and have a nice day!
And, finally, a special message for Wayne Wright and his fellow American compatriot Yahweh Passim Nam: at least now you know how almost every Muslim visitor ~ including our International Trade and Finance Minister ~ to your wonderful land of the free gets treated. Actually, you got off pretty lightly ~ you didn't have to endure anal probes, did you?
Americans have a habit of treating others like pieces of shit and whinging when they get a piece of their own medicine. Why don't you show some grit like the Brits ~ lie back and think of Uncle Sam, for Chrissakes, be a man!
And Wayne, don't scream "I'm an American citizen!" ~ shouting a daft thing like that will get you killed in most parts of the world these days, man. Duh!
To annanorm:
This has been my experience with African tenants. If you've had better luck, then good luck to you. Tenants who don't pay rent and expect to stay for free are scum as far as I'm concerned.
As for African spam scammers, this will dispel you of your ignorance. Its typical of the daily scam spam I get:
