CINTA .. A Story of Love ( Sebuah Cerita Cinta)
Saya menonton filem ini setelah disarankan oleh Yasnul, katanya " filem ini best..buatkan ko menanggis!". Iya, benar sekali filem ini mampu menitiskan airmata. Saya menonton filem ini dari Youtube ( Thanks to guitarman1234 for the post), dan hanya di Youtube saya dan rakan-rakan disini mampu menonton filem melayu. Mustahir untuk kami menonton filem melayu dipawagan-pawagan di Itali.
CINTA..bukan sekadar sebuah cerita melayu yang penuh dengan ciri-ciri kontempori moden tetapi juga arahan yang mantap dan selitan dialog-dialog yang cukup bermakna, sekaligus membawa filem ini ke satu aras yang cukup membanggakan bagi karyawan tanahair.
**
Selepas menonton filem ini, terfikir sejenak.. kalaulah filem melayu sebegini, tiada kemungkinan filem kita mampu bersaing dengan filem-filem luar. Kalau kita lihat filem-filem melayu sekarang, kebanyakkan nya hanya sekadar untuk memenuhi panggung wayang, dah tidak semua mampu membawa satu impak yang luarbiasa sebagaimana impak yang diberikan oleh filem CINTA.
**
Garapan yang baik, kisah cinta dalam pelbagai perspektif dan dari ukuran umur yang berbeza memberi makna CINTA itu sendiri jauh dari definisinya. Apa yang saya pelajari dari filem ini, kasih dan cinta itu ada lah lebih dari segala-galanya di dunia ini. Harta benda bukanlah untuk segala-galanya. Kalau tiada cinta, tiada apa yang tinggal..kegembiraan itu lebih bermakna dari wang ringgit, lebih bermakna dari harta berjuta.
**
Kita lupa dalam perjalanan hidup ini, kita ragus mengejar keduniaan hingga kadang kala kita lupa dengan Yang ESA. Dan, kesibukan hari juga melalaikan kita dengan apa yang dituntut. CINTA bukan sekadar untuk definisi sesama insan itu sendiri, tetapi lebih dari itu.

Dalam filem CINTA, saya tersentuh dengan pengorbanan yang telah diberikan oleh Dyan terhadap adiknya. Pengorbanan yang cukup besar sehingga tanpa disedari filem ini mampu menitiskan air mata. Cinta antara suami isteri, cinta antara warga tua...cukup indah. Bagi saya, hargai la cinta yang ada. Kasihinilah orang yang tersayang. Saya cukup tertarik dengan satu dialog yang berbunyi " Cukup susah untuk menyanyangi orang yang kita sayang". Kadang-kala, ia nya benar. Orang yang kita sayang, cukup sukar unruk disayangi.

Dan juga lagu tema filem ini, "Perpisahan" nyanyi Anuar Zain cukup syahdu, kuat dengan melodi dan lagu ini mampu meruntun jiwa dengan bait-bait lirik yang cukup indah. Bagi saya, Anuar Zain berjaya membawa lagu ini dengan cukup baik sekali dan dia mampu mencurahkan jiwanya dalam lagu ini.
Mampukah karyawan-karyawan Malaysia yang lahir melahirkan filem yang sebegini. Filem yang penuh dengan teladan, penuh dengan ikhtibar dan filem yang penuh dengan sentuhan seni.

Larnedello, A Geothermal Acitivity in Italy
Geothermal is another energy sources in Italy besides oil and gas. From 6.7MW, it was expanded to 60MW and this sources has provided 3.2% of energy sources in Italy. As one of renewable energy sourceses, Geothermal has become another options to fulfill energy demand worldwide.
Geothermal energy was first used in Lardaerllo, Italy in 1904. This energy is basically generated from stream of geothermal and this hydrothermal energy is converted into electricity using steam turbine- electric generator.
Currently, Italy has managed build 31 georthemal plants and able to dig about 509 wells as far as 459km with a capacity of 220MW in a total. The type of conversion used depends on the state of the fluid (whether steam or water) and its temperature. Dry steam power plants systems were the first type of geothermal power generation plants built. They use the steam from the geothermal reservoir as it comes from wells, and route it directly through turbine/generator units to produce electricity. Flash steam plants are the most common type of geothermal power generation plants in operation today. They use water at temperatures greater than 360°F (182°C) that is pumped under high pressure to the generation equipment at the surface. Binary cycle geothermal power generation plants differ from Dry Steam and Flash Steam systems in that the water or steam from the geothermal reservoir never comes in contact with the turbine/generator units.
In Malaysia, we do not have geothermal sourceses to produce electricity. Geographically we are not in a circle of volcanic path and our electricity is now depending on hydro generator and gas power plant.
Yestarday, the weather was so warm to begin our journey to Larnedello, a location of Geothermal Plant in Italy. Larnedello is a region which is located sowewhere in South of Tuscany and it took us about 2 1/2 hours by road from Firenze to reach this place. Interestingly this journey provides enormous excitements with enjoying the sightseening of another side of Tuscany. The valleys, hilly villages, wide green grass and grape farms have become an usual landscape to the outsiders and also for people from here. I was sitting next to Yasnul for this 2 plus hours journey and it becomes a common for both of us to enjoy the views of this journey.
Since this morning i hadn't take my breakfast and it really made me horrible during this journey. I don't think i was late woke up to prepare my breakfast. Usually i go to GE Learning Centre around 8.00am but this morning, we ( with Bapak Rudi) departed early in order to catch the bus. And this made me travelling without a breakfast. Anyway, it doesn't matter much for me and sometimes i prefer to no breakfast. During the journey, i managed to snap few pictures of wide-open grass fields and it's really like a golf field!. If you were with me, i am really you would say, OMG!...it's damn beautiful, and sometimes it came out of my mouth saying that " How great to have a house here." But, believe me nowhere else is better that this hilly, valley area. With a cold breeze winding, cloudy with a bright day was really brought you to another world.
As i mentioned earlier in my previous post, Italy is really different with other European countries. Every villages keeps a very well hidden-thousand secrets and histories. The villages aged i believe more than houdreds years stand rigidly on the top of the hill and it provides a wonderful view from the valley and far from horizon, the sun light completes the landscape with very beautiful combination of panoramas.
The winter is almost gone and the villagers start their farming with variety of vegetables and flowers. The trees start to blooming and the aroma of flower ascents reaches my nose everytime i stepped out from the bus. It is really alive!.
The cooling tower model above is basically a model constructed for tourists purposes which was placed in a museum in Lardenello. This museum was initally constructed to keep all historic geothermal activities in Italy, this museum was expanded with additional other technologies used for geothermal activities such as instrumentation control, tools, electronic devices etc.
Guys! this is one of geothermal wells ( just a small well) located in the museum of geothermal. The smell of H2S was terrible and obviously you can smell a rotten egg everywhere in this place. The steam from undergroup is basically mixed with other minerals e.g sulfur, mercury calcium etc and it is not a processed steam with clean contains. So off course the vapour released contains a mixture of chemical contents.
We went to one of the steam valve which was located on top of the hill. For a demonstration purposes, operator released a steam which provided high pitch frequency and it is like you standing next to gas turbine. The sound was loud even louder of steam turbine in my plant. The steam released was i believe almost 3.5 bar and it was straight away from thousand miles from the ground. The insulated pipeline was seen everywhere which transports the steam to the geothermal plants.
The picture above is one of the cooling towers of Geothermal plant which is a modern design for geothermal plant. Convertionally for the cooling tower, we can see from far a con shape but this one is a bit different with other cooling towers in Lardenello. The steam from the steam turbine is routed to the cooling system to condensate the steam and send it back for reinjection process.
Sunset...beautiful!. when we were on the way back home(florence)
