UTUHNYA CINTA SITI NORDIANA DALAM “HATIKU MILIKMU”

Sifat kesetiaan, ketulusan, kekuatan, istiqamah dan iltizam yang bersungguh-sungguh yang wujud dalam sanubari wanita sering diungkap dalam naskhah-naskhah zaman silam sama ada di alam Melayu ataupun Barat. Keutuhan cinta seorang wanita yang setia tidak ada pasang surutnya, tidak pernah berkurang apatah lagi hilang ditelan masa. Sekali dia menyerahkan jiwa dan raganya kepada seorang lelaki,  sampai ke hujung nyawa dia akan tetap melestarikan rasa kasih dan sayangnya kepada pasangannya.

Begitulah luahan SITI NORDIANA dalam single terbarunya yang berjudul “Hatiku Milikmu”.  Ini merupakan single solo Nana yang ketiga selepas muncul juara dalam program Gegar Vaganza 2 (GV2) pada tahun 2015. Masih mengekalkan tema cinta dalam single terbaru ini, Siti Nordiana yang mesra disapa sebagai Nana ini beranggapan lagu ini bukan hanya mengisarkan kisah cinta biasa, malah ianya lebih memfokuskan kepada sifat wanita yang setia dan tulus dalam percintaan.

Bagi Nana lagu ini melambangkan keutuhan cinta seorang wanita. Walaupun pernah dikecewakan, hatinya tetap setia dan cintanya tetap utuh. Sukar untuk dia berpindah ke lain hati apabila sepenuh jiwa raganya sudah pun diserahkan kepada lelaki yang amat dicintainya,” jelas Nana tentang perihal yang diangkat dalam “Hatiku Milikmu”.

Single terbaru ini merupakan hasil gubahan Nana sendiri bersama Shana yang bertindak sebagai penulis lirik. Lagu berentak pop balada ini diterbitkan oleh syarikat rakaman milik Nana sendiri, SND Soul Entertainment dengan kerjasama Seventeen Eleven Music Sdn Bhd sebagai pengedar.

Sesuai dengan suara dan kecenderungan Nana sendiri yang selesa membawakan lagu-lagu irama balada yang sudah sebati dengan dirinya. Nana sekali lagi mempertaruhkan genre pop balada untuk single “Hatiku Milikmu” ini. Menjanjikan sedikit kelainan terhadap karya terbarunya ini, Nana memilih untuk menyuntik sedikit elemen moden ke dalam susunan muzik “Hatiku Milikmu” agar berbunyi lebih segar dan berbeza berbanding lagu-lagu Nana sebelum ini. 

“Apa yang boleh Nana simpulkan, muzik dalam lagu ni memang cukup istimewa. Lagu ini sepatutnya lagu sedih dengan melodi mendayu-dayu dan lirik yang melankolis, tetapi sebaliknya lagu ini kedengaran tidaklah sampai meruntun jiwa. Itulah keistimewaannya. Lagu sedih tapi muziknya sedikit rancak,” ulas Nana. 

”Lagipun, sengaja Nana hasilkan lagu ini agar tidak bernada tinggi dan bersifat lebih santai. Senanglah nanti untuk peminat menyanyikan lagu ini di karaoke atau menerusi applikasi seperti Smule,” jelas Nana lagi.

Sekiranya lirik dalam single Nana sebelum ini “Terus Mecintai” merupakan cerminan kisah percintaan Nana sendiri. Inspirasi lirik “Hatiku Milikmu” pula datang dari sumber yang berbeza. Penyanyi kelahiran Negeri Sembilan ini menjelaskan,“Ilham untuk penulisan lirik lagu ini bermula daripada lontaran idea Nana dan Shana. Mengambil contoh kisah-kisah cinta di sekeliling kita, kami berdua sama-sama fikirkan latar cerita terbaik untuk lagu ini. Lirik nukilan Shana berjaya memberi jiwa kepada lagu ini.”

Turut dilancarkan bersama single ini adalah video muzik rasmi “Hatiku Milikmu” yang akan mula disiarkan Video muzik ini merupakan arahan Sergiu Chirau dan Dragos Cruceat dari agensi produksi video, Storytellrs. Penggambaran dijalankan selama seminggu di Krabi, Thailand dan sekitar Kuala Lumpur. Menurut Nana, inilah pengalaman pertamanya menjalani penggambaran video muzik di luar negara sepanjang tempoh karier seninya yang sudah menginjak usia 19 tahun.

Video muzik ini turut menampilkan pasangan lakonan Nana dalam telemovie “Cekelat Semanis Honey” dan “Cekelat Tak Semanis Honey”. Pemilihan Fikry Ibrahim untuk bergandingan dengannya dalam video muzik ini menurut Nana adalah bagi memenuhi permintaan peminat yang mahu melihat kesinambungan gandingan mereka di layar perak. “Ada sesuatu istimewa yang Nana sajikan dalam video muzik ini. Peminat kenalah tonton kalau hendak tahu lebih lanjut,” ujar Nana yang turut teruja menantikan hasil video muzik itu.

 Nana yang sibuk merencana kerjaya seninya dalam bidang nyanyian, lakonan dan pengacaraan untuk tahun 2018, berdebar menunggu penerimaan peminat terhadap single terbaru ini berkata,“Selama ini memang Nana cuba berikan yang terbaik untuk peminat. Merekalah sumber inspirasi Nana. Harapan Nana agar “Hatiku Milikmu” ini mendapat reaksi positif peminat Nana khususnya dan pencinta seni tanahair amnya.”

Tony Roma’s recreates its BBQ Grilled Chicken with a ‘new’ twist

One thing that every meat lover can always count on is that special, mouth-watering sauce to go with any good piece of meat. But, what exactly makes the sauce so special? Is it the texture or the thickness of the sauce that makes it so delicious? Or is it just about the sauce having the right amount of depth in flavor that gives it its uniqueness and quality? Whichever it may be, Tony Roma’s knows best when it comes to pairing a good piece of meat with the right sauce.

For a limited time only, Tony Roma’s Saucy BBQ Grilled Chicken menu offers three new and bold sauces which comprises the New Pepsi BBQ Sauce – a caramel sweet smoky flavored sauce with a hint of spices, the Peppercorn Sauce – a rich creamy peppercorn flavored sauce with a hint of apple, and the Texas Spicy Sauce – made with fresh ingredients and has a hint of chili and light sweet tomato flavor.

Tony Roma’s Saucy BBQ Grilled Chicken

Irene Tiong, Brand General Manager of Tony Roma’s Malaysia, said, “Having good grilling and cooking skills are undeniably the core of barbecue.

This is why Tony Roma’s continues to find more ways to push boundaries in the culinary world.”

Sony Expands “Full-frame Mirrorless” Line-up with New α7 III

Sony today introduced yet another impressive addition to their full-frame mirrorless camera line-up, the α7 III (model ILCE-7M3). 

  • Newly Developed Full-frame 24.2MP[1] Back-Illuminated Exmor R™ CMOS Image Sensor with Evolved Image Processing
  • Wide ISO range of 100 – 51200 (expandable to ISO 50 – 204800 for still images) and 15-Stop[2] Dynamic Range at low sensitivities
  • World Class AF system featuring 693 phase-detection AF points covering 93% of image area, 425 contrast AF points and fast and reliable Eye AF
  • Continuous Shooting at up to 10 fps[3] with either Mechanical Shutter or Silent Shooting[4] and full Auto Focus/Auto Exposure tracking
  • 5-axis optical in-body image stabilisation with a 5.0 step[5] shutter speed advantage
  • High Resolution 4K[6] Movie Shooting with full pixel readout and no pixel binning across full-width of full-frame sensor
  • The longest rated battery life of any Mirrorless camera[7] at 710 shots[8] per charge
  • Upgraded operability and functionality including addition of joystick for adjusting focus points, Dual SD Card Slots, SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.1 Gen 1) USB Type-C™ Terminal and more

Sony’s unmatched innovation within the image sensor space is at the forefront of the new α7 III, as it features a brand new 24.2MP1 back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS image sensor with increased sensitivity, outstanding resolution and an impressive 15 stops2 of dynamic range at low sensitivities. By combining this sensor with a variety of impressive features including extreme AF coverage of 93%, fast shooting at up to 10 fps3 with either mechanical shutter or silent shooting4, diverse 4K5 video capabilities and more, Sony has created a new tool that gives all types of creators – from enthusiast to professional – the ability to capture content in new and different ways than they ever have before.

Spectacular Full-frame Image Quality

The newly developed 24.2MP1 back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS image sensor is paired with a front-end LSI that effectively doubles the readout speed of the image sensor, as well as an updated BIONZ X™ processing-engine that boosts processing speed by approximately 1.8 times compared to the α7 II. These powerful components work together to allow the camera to shoot at faster speeds while also enabling its impressive ISO range of 100 – 51200 (expandable to ISO 50 – 204800 for still images) and an overall 1.5-stop[1] improvement in image quality. The camera also features a massive 15-stop2 dynamic range at low sensitivity settings, ensuring outstanding overall performance at all settings and in all shooting conditions, with significant advancements in accurate colour reproductions of skin tones and the vibrant colours of nature.

This new full-frame model can also output 14 bit RAW format[2] even in silent and continuous shooting modes, and is equipped with a 5-axis optical image stabilisation system that results in a 5.0 step5 shutter speed advantage.

Significant Advances in AF Speed and Performance

The innovative new α7 III full-frame mirrorless camera features a level of AF performance that has been largely improved over the α7 II, including the addition of 4D FOCUS™ capabilities. The new camera has 425 contrast AF points that work with a 693-point focal-plane phase-detection AF system inherited from the acclaimed α9 model. This innovative AF system covers approximately 93% of the frame, ensuring reliable focusing and tracking for even the most difficult to capture subjects.

AF response and tracking has also been greatly improved in the new camera, with almost 2x9 the focusing speed in low-light condition and 2x2 the tracking speed compared to the previous model as a result of the faster image sensor readout. This allows complex and unpredictable motion to be captured with far greater precision and accuracy.

The acclaimed Eye AF feature is also available in the new camera, even in AF-C mode, which is extremely useful for situations where the subject is turning around, looking down or otherwise obstructed. It also works when the α7 III is being used with Sony’s A-mount lenses with an optional LA-EA3 adaptor[1]. Additional improvements in focusing flexibility include the addition of a multi-selector or ‘joystick’ for moving focusing points quickly, the addition of touch focusing capability, AF availability in Focus Magnifier mode, an ‘AF On’ button and much more.

Speed to Capture Every Decisive Moment

The new α7 III is equipped with an updated image processing system that allows it to shoot full resolution images at up to 10 fps3 with continuous, accurate AF/AE tracking for up to 177 Standard JPEG images, 89 compressed RAW images or 40 uncompressed RAW images[1]. This high speed mode is available with either a mechanical shutter or a completely silent shooting4, adding to the immense flexibility of the camera. The camera can also shoot continuously at up to 8 fps3 in live view mode with minimal lag in the viewfinder or LCD screen.

For added convenience, while large groups of burst images are being written to the memory card, many of the cameras key functions are operable, including access to the ‘Fn’ (Function) and ‘Menu’ buttons, image playback and several other menus and parameters including image rating and other functions that facilitate on-location image sorting.

Additionally, if there is fluorescent or artificial lighting present in a shooting environment, users can activate the Anti-flicker[2] function to allow the α7 III to automatically detect frequency of the lighting and time the shutter to minimise its effect on images being captured. This minimises any exposure or colour anomalies that can sometimes occur at the top and bottom of images shot at high shutter speeds.

High Quality 4K6 Video

The new α7 III is an outstanding video camera as well, offering 4K6 (3840×2160 pixels) video recording across the full width of the full-frame image sensor. In video mode, the camera uses full pixel readout without pixel binning to collect about 2.4x[1] the amount of data required for 4K movies, and then oversamples it to produce high quality 4K footage with exceptional detail and depth.

An HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma)[2] picture profile is available on the α7 III as well, which supports an Instant HDR workflow, allowing HDR (HLG) compatible TV’s to playback beautiful, true-to-life 4K HDR imagery. Further, both S-Log2 and S-Log3 are available for increased colour grading flexibility, as well as Zebra functionality, Gamma Display assist and proxy recording. The camera can also record Full HD at 120 fps at up to 100 Mbps6, allowing footage to be reviewed and eventually edited into 4x or 5x slow motion video files in Full HD resolution with AF tracking.

Upgraded Build, Design and Customisation

Sony’s newest full-frame camera is equipped with a variety of enhanced capabilities that were first implemented in the α9 and then again in the α7R III. These include dual media slots, with support in one slot for UHS-II type SD memory cards. Users have a variety of options for storing their content in each of the cards, including separate JPEG / RAW recording, separate still image / movie recording, relay recording and more. Battery life has been greatly extended as well – with a CIPA measurement of up to 710 shots per charge8, it offers the world’s longest7 battery life of any Mirrorless camera, as the new camera utilises Sony’s Z series battery NP-FZ100 that offers approximately 2.2 times the capacity of the W series battery NP-FW50 utilised in the α7 II.

The new camera features “My Menu” functionality which allows up to 30 menu items to be registered for instant recall when needed. Users can also apply star ratings to their still images through the camera controls for easier image playback and review, and edit the first three characters of all still image files. Additionally, there is a total of 81 functions that are assignable to 11 custom buttons, and the camera is both dust and moisture resistant[3].

The α7 III features high-resolution, high-contrast, fast-start XGA OLED Tru-Finder™ with approximately 2.3 million dots for extremely accurate, true-to-life detail reproduction. “Standard” or “High” display quality settings are also available for both the viewfinder and monitor as well. It also is capable of seamlessly transferring files to a smartphone, tablet, computer or FTP server via Wi-Fi®, while also offering a SuperSpeed USB (USB 3.1 Gen 1) USB Type-C™ Terminal for increased flexibility in power supply and faster image transfer speed during tethered shooting.

The α7 III model also comes with Sony’s new software suite “Imaging Edge”, which extends the creative capabilities of the entire shooting process – from pre-processing to post-processing. “Imaging Edge” provides three PC applications called ‘Remote’, ‘Viewer’ and ‘Edit’, available for free download, which support live-view PC remote shooting and RAW development. In the latest Version 1.1, several improvements have been implemented including about 10%[1] faster data transfer speed for remote shooting from PC (PC tether shooting) and approximately 65%[2] improvement in the response speed for RAW image editing. For more information, please visit Imaging Edge support page. www.sony.net/disoft/d/.

The camera is also compatible with a wide variety of Sony E-mount accessories including the BC-QZ1 Battery Charger[3]VG-C3EM Vertical Grip.

ALEX SILVA TO DEFEND ONE STRAWWEIGHT WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP AGAINST YOSHITAKA NAITO IN REMATCH

The largest global sports media property in Asian history, ONE Championship™ (ONE), has just announced ONE: GRIT AND GLORY, set for 12 May at the Jakarta Convention Center. The absolute best in local and international martial arts talent are ready to showcase their skills inside the prestigious ONE Championship cage. In the main event, reigning ONE Strawweight World Champion Alex “Little Rock” Silva of Brazil takes on Yoshitaka “Nobita” Naito of Japan in a highly-anticipated rematch.

Ticket information for ONE: GRIT AND GLORY is available at www.onefc.com.

Chatri Sityodtong, Chairman and CEO of ONE Championship, stated: “Their first encounter just months ago was a gripping five-round affair that saw the best of each man. Now, Alex Silva and Yoshitaka Naito are set to dance once again inside the ONE Championship cage. The ONE Strawweight World Championship hangs in the balance. Jakarta is once again ready to play host to a blockbuster evening of world-class martial arts, and I am pleased to announce another spectacular card.”

Alex “Little Rock” Silva of Sao Paulo, Brazil, is a third-degree black belt and Brazilian jiu-jitsu world champion feared for his relentless pursuit of submission finishes. He is a technical grappling specialist with a penchant for securing highlight-reel submissions. With steadily increasing confidence, five of Silva’s last six victories have all ended in spectacular fashion. In his most recent contest, Silva turned in the best performance of his career, defeating former champion Yoshitaka Naito via unanimous decision to claim the ONE Strawweight World Championship. Now, Silva is ready to return to action to defend the belt against the same man he took it from.

Former ONE Strawweight World Champion Yoshitaka “Nobita” Naito of Matsudo, Japan, owns a stellar professional record of 12-1. He owns six victories by submission and one by knockout. Naito made a name for himself at Japan’s world famous Korakuen Hall competing for Shooto as its Flyweight Champion, and captured the ONE Strawweight World Championship by submitting Dejdamrong Sor Amnuaysirichoke in his ONE promotional debut in 2016. In his most recent bout, Naito succumbed to now reigning division king, Alex Silva. He returns to action looking to reclaim championship glory against Silva in a rematch.

Top Indonesian martial arts talent Stefer Rahardian impressed in his ONE Championship debut by winning the ONE: TITLES & TITANS Flyweight Tournament in August of 2016. Rahardian finished both Yotha Hutagalung and Hendrick Wijaya by first round rear-naked choke to become the tournament winner. Since then, Rahardian has blazed a trail in the ONE Championship cage in an amazing run as a professional. In his last outing, Rahardian outperformed Pakistan’s Muhammad Imran to win by unanimous decision. Still unbeaten at a perfect 8-0, Rahardian puts his unblemished record on the line against Himanshu Kaushik in a strawweight contest.
