This year's Red List and the accompanying Global Species Assessment (GSA) include many animals and plants that have not appeared before, because of increased monitoring data. For example, the Global Amphibian Assessment, which was completed in September, provided information on species not evaluated in previous surveys. Still, the picture is incomplete. "Although 15,589 species are known to be threatened with extinction, this greatly underestimates the true number, as only a fraction of the known species have been assessed," explains Red List program officer Craig Hilton-Taylor. "There is still much to be discovered about key species-rich habitats, such as tropical forests, marine and freshwater systems; or particular groups, such as invertebrates, plants and fungi, which make up the majority of biodiversity." Nows thats global warming, but it seems to chim to understand. And plus++++++, thats like only one part of the email!!! OH-MY-GAWD. anyways, i guess i'll just have to rack my brains or check up the dicky for those strange and "scientific" words or whatever. Amigoes, you might want to take back your word about my being good in eng-ga-leesh. So, now its the final showdown between Jonathan Leong and Hady Mirza. Today night. Results. Tears, fights and quarrels over just one IDOL show. Dude, you have BETTER stuff to do, than obsessing over whether this fella is cute or whatever. Hello? PSLE is just in 9 days, and you could be studying than being "in-love" with those guys. You are annoying those people around you!!! I'm living proof. (being annoyed by those fans, i mean). Ok. So now Liv and Suharti are supporting Hady. Previously they were supporting Joakim Gomez and Paul Twohill respectively. You can probably call Liv a true-blue fan of Paul. She buys every single thing that has a him in it, like magazines, even if its just one old measly pic. And she's desperate to buy every issue of the IDOL magazine. Suharti, on the contrary, just says that she likes Joakim. Full Stop. Nothing more to that. Today they had a quarrel over their previously supported idols, and i think i'm the cause of it. Here's the story: I asked Liv is she could lend me her IDOL magazine, you know the one with the top 12? Thats history, but whatever. So i flipped through the interview with each 12 idol finalists(one on each page), then i found myself staring at the interview with Joakim Gomez. Suharti: (squeals) Oooh!!!! i LOVE Joakim!!! Liv: Urgh...Suharti: (snatches the magazine away from me) At least he's better than your Paul anyway!Liv: (gets angry)Later...at dismissal...Liv: (packs her bag)Me: Hey, you ok? Liv: Yeah...Me: But you dont seem OK. c'mon, whats the matter?Liv: (in a low tone) How could she say that?Me: Who say what?Liv: Suharti. She said Joakim was better than Paul!! Thats her, always dont care about other people's feelings, then say what she wants to say. You know, if she angry with someone, she wont forgive until the person pleads with her.Me: Well...Liv: And i never even said a single word about Joakim!!! Me: Liv, maybe Suharti is just...Liv:(interrupts) I HATE Joakim!Well...so i guess i'm the cause of it all. I shouldnt even have borrowed that magazine from Liv in the first place! Now Liv's seething at Suharti, and suharti just acts as per normal. -sigh-
