José Mourinho : The Most Popular Extra Special Soccer Manager


Save those water Jose! :)
Still fresh from one of the best UEFA Champions League knock-out matchday, which has been played last night. What a performance especially Manchester United, whom slayed AS Roma at the Theater of Dream (7-1,8-3 agg) and Chelsea ditch a last breath winning goal at Valencia's Mestalla (2-1,3-2 agg). Kudos to all of 'em!

[more][more]

José Mário dos Santos Mourinho Félix who popularly being known as José Mourinho, is the man behind the greatest revival of The Blues (of course with the help from Roman's Not-That-Little Pounds). I don't think he need to be introduced further more. Enjoy his soft-heavy-accently-funny-killer quotes.

"Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm European champion and I think I'm a special one."




"I saw their players and manager go for a lap of honour after losing to us in their last home game. In Portugal if you do this, they throw bottles at you." - on Manchester United




"We have top players and, sorry if I'm arrogant, we have a top manager"




"There are only two ways for me to leave Chelsea. One way is in June 2010 when I finish my contract and if the club doesn't give me a new one. It is the end of my contract and I am out. The second way is for Chelsea to sack me. The way of the manager leaving the club by deciding to walk away, no chance! I will never do this to Chelsea supporters." - when asked if success in the Carling Cup final might mean the last trophy he would win for Chelsea




"If I wanted to have an easy job...I would have stayed at Porto - beautiful blue chair, the Uefa Champions League trophy, God, and after God, me."




"If he helped me out in training we would be bottom of the league and if I had to work in his world of big business, we would be bankrupt." - on Chelsea F.C. owner Roman Abramovich




"I saw their players and manager go for a lap of honour after losing to us in their last home game. In Portugal if you do this, they throw bottles at you." - on Manchester United




"Pressure? What pressure? Pressure is poor people in the world trying to feed their families. There is no pressure in football" - speaking in a post-match interview




"Everybody wants Chelsea to lose a game. When they do they should declare a public holiday." - Speaking in a press conference about Chelsea's leading Premiership start in the 2005-06 season




"I think he is one of these people who is a voyeur. He likes to watch other people. There are some guys who, when they are at home, have a big telescope to see what happens in other families. He speaks, speaks, speaks about Chelsea." - on Arsène Wenger




"I am more scared of bird flu than football. What is football compared with life? I have to buy some masks and stuff - maybe for my team as well." - Speaking soon after H5N1 spread to Britain, and when Chelsea's league lead over Manchester United had slipped to 7 points

Keiichi Tsuchiya : The Most Popular Dorikin a.k.a Drift King


Hail the King of Drift. Also known as the papa of Tōge and Toyota AE86 Sprinter Trueno a.k.a. the "Hachi-Roku" expert. Numerous titles and awesome career results, and without any doubt, he's one of the motorsports legend. Not just in his mother-country but the whole earth, I believe.

Born: January 30, 1956
Nagano, Japan
Occupation: Former JGTC Driver and Team Director, Current D1GP Judge
Website: www.k1planning.com (Japanese)

"I drift not because it is a quicker way around a corner, but it is the most exciting way"


"Men with guts attack those corners!"



Having the opportunity to watch his stunning drift skills during last year D1GP malaysia, no word other that W-O-W that best describes he's awesome control and superb drifting skills.



"You brake and then turn the wheel, step on the clutch, and pull the e-brake. Release the e-brake, go into countersteer mode, then wait. Wait until you know the car is facing the corner exit direction. then you smile and slam on the gas as you exit the corner."

"This is fun! I wish that Toyota could make cars like this again!" (on the Toyota AE86)

"Countersteer ga osoin' da yo naa.. (Countersteer is late, huh?)" (from The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, subbed as "You call that drifting?")

"Sou yuu dake desu. (Just like that.)" (Tsuchiya as he demos a drift)

"The Most Important thing is Balance." (Tsuchiya says this word in every drift action)

"Doda?" (Tsuchiya says "How's that?" sarcastically to Shikiba Tatsuya, in Shuto Kusokou Trials MAX)

"There's tension on the track, now you see how hard it is. You may be fastest on the street, but unless you know the track, you're not good enough to sit behind the wheel." (Tsuchiya speaking to Shikiba, subtitled portion, Shuto Kusokou Trials MAX)

"I'm afraid if I raced you on the street, I'd push you to your death." (Tsuchiya speaks to Takahiro Yamanaka, subtitled portion, Shuto Kusokou Trials 2)




"What is power without control?"

Angelina Jolie : The Most extra-Popular Hollywood Mommy


Yea. I know. The title somewhat doesn't reflect much. Supposed to read world's most hawt super-mum, sexiest Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency, world's most beautiful women, Hollywood greatest kids-lover-adopter, and what not. The list is kinda never stop (as for now). She's just the "bomb". Enough said.

"To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife." -Jolie denied she and Pitt had started an affair during filming of Mr. & Mrs. Smith




"I’m never going to have a mans name tattooed on my body again."




We cannot close ourselves off to information and ignore the fact that millions of people are out there suffering. I honestly want to help. I don't believe I feel differently from other people. I think we all want justice and equality, a chance for a life with meaning. All of us would like to believe that if we were in a bad situation someone would help us. -Jolie as UN Ambassador






"I'd tell him: 'I'm alone; I'm dying; I'm gay; I'm not going to see you for weeks.'" -Jolie to Johny-Lee-Miller, while shooting GIA


Birth name Angelina Jolie Voight
Born June 4, 1975
Los Angeles, California, United States
Spouse(s) Jonny Lee Miller (1996-1999)
Billy Bob Thornton (2000-2003)



"It took me by surprise, too, because overnight, we totally changed. I think one day we had just nothing in common. And it's scary but... I think it can happen when you get involved and you don't know yourself yet." -Jolie on sudden dissolution of her marriage with Bob




"Of course. If I fell in love with a woman tomorrow, would I feel that it's okay to want to kiss and touch her? If I fell in love with her? Absolutely! Yes!" -Jolie In an interview with Barbara Walters in 2003, asked if she was bisexual




"I use Blistex, but because my lips are naturally red, I also subdue the colour with a nude lipstick. I know other women would kill for my lips, but I feel they take over my face."



Happy Family...


“Every time I see a picture of myself with Mad I can’t believe how fortunate my life has been. It’s an image I thought I would never see: myself with a child.”

James "Papa Java" Gosling : The Most Popular Java Figure (beside Duke)



Java is sort of like oxygen in the air--nobody thinks about the oxygen when they're breathing. Although there are special purpose programming in new domains, Java seems to be living pretty long.
[go]


'Papa Java during the good old days.'

I've no idea, why I feature him. :) But having the opportunity to meet him during the Sun Tech Days Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.. sure I'm not going it to be missed. He's kinda rawk, sitting besides all the fellow dignitaries, ministries... he stay cool with his orange Java T and jeans while other in their blazer-black-tie-bla-bla. Big kudos to you James.



"So in the Sun world, the hard stuff is possible, but the easy stuff is hard. In the Microsoft world, the easy stuff is easy, but the hard stuff is impossible."





"Java Is Under No Serious Threat From PHP, Ruby or C#"

Daron Malakian : The Most Gifted Armenian-American Rockstar


Familiar huh? Not much difference from today. Why took you gals so long to recognise.. :) . He is Mr Daron Malakian. The "headmaster" of Armenian-American rock band, System of A Down (my top fav band). He always wanted to play the drums, but his parents got him a guitar instead because "You can't turn the drums off." (wiki). Wow.. ever wonder what in the world will happens if he continues to play drums? Surely Mr Joey Jordison can't have the seat at Slipknot :)..



Name - Daron V. Malakian
Birth date - July 18, 1975
Birth Place - Hollywood, California, USA
Lives in - Glendale, California
Height - 5'6 feet [171 cm]
Marital Status - Not Married
Nationality - American [Armenian Ancestry]
Occupation - Guitarist, Composer, Songwriter, Vocals (System of a Down)
Personal Projects - EatUrMusic Music label. / Scars on Broadway
Appearances - Bad Acid Trip on the Stage
Risk Factors - Smoking, Drugs [source]



"'I have tons of material laying around. After these albums," (Mezmerize and Hypnotize) "I'm gonna go off and do something on my own, just like Serj. And no, System of a Down are not breaking up. We're just gonna do like KISS and put out our own solo records or something like that."




Scars On Broadway?
"It will probably be something electronic mixed in with traditional Armenian and thrash/death/black and doom metal influences. When, or even if, the music comes out it will still be structured, just like System of a Down's music is."

Scars' new album is expected to be out later in 2007. Can't wait...


Daron, we love you(but I'm not gay).

Adolf Hitler : The Most Popular Führer (Head Of State)?


From a cradle to the grave. Man evolve. So as this cute little baby-pics of Mr Adolf.
But his existence was so very significance to our planet's history. "Popular?" You decide!

"If freedom is short of weapons, we must compensate with willpower."
-- Adolf Hitler, Landsberg, 5 November 1925 [source]

Born >April 20, 1889
Braunau am Inn, Austria
Died >April 30, 1945 (aged 56)
Berlin, Germany
Political party >National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP)
Spouse >Eva Braun
(married on 29 April 1945)

Nowadays I do not speak very often. In the first place I have little time for speaking, and in the second place I believe that this is a time for action rather than speech.




What I am planning or aiming at today is nothing compared to what I have already accomplished and achieved. It will be achieved sooner and more definitely than everything already achieved. The road from an unknown and nameless person to Fuehrer of the German nation was harder than will be the way from Fuehrer of the German nation to creator of the coming peace.
-[berlin]



"In the final days of the war, Hitler, along with his new wife, Eva Braun, committed suicide in his underground bunker in Berlin, as the city was being overrun by the Red Army of the Soviet Union."

Paris Hilton : The Most Popular Blonde Hotel Heiress


Why Me Popular?
Because you asked for it! :)

Birth name - Paris Whitney Hilton
Born - February 17, 1981
Origin - New York City, New York, US
Genre(s) - Pop, Reggae, Hip-hop
Occupation(s) - Singer, actor, model, author (more I supposed)
Instrument(s) - Vocals
Label(s) - Heiress Records

"I'm doing it just because I want to. I feel I'm becoming stronger as a person. Every time I have a boyfriend, I'm just so romantic, and I'll put all my energy into the guy, and I don't really pay attention to myself. One-night stands are not for me. I think it's gross when you just give it up. Guys want you more if you don't just hand it to them on a platter. If they want you, then they will wait. You have to make them work for it. I think that's the only way you know if they really want you or just want to be able to brag that they've been with you."
