Kuantan's main sightseeing attraction is the beach at Teluk Cempedak. There are also other scenic beaches popular with vacationers in the city's vicinity, such as Batu Hitam, Balok, Chendor, Pantai Sepat, Beserah, and Cherating. Near Cherating (Club Med is located here) is a turtle sanctuary. A few kilometers away from Cherating is Pulau Ular (Snake Island). There is a legend connected with this island. In fact, Kuantan has the most beaches compared to other cities in Malaysia

Pantai Balok, Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia
This shot was captured during my outing with Annamir recently for Konvensyen Pensyarah Tahfiz at De Rhu Resort, Kuantan Pahang.
Just to apply this kind of tone to this landscape image since the sky is not that beautiful...

Kau nyalakan pelita hati
Tapi sayang di tengah hari
Aku sendiri bukan tak peduli
Betapa halusnya cinta
Hingga kita bisa tersinggung
Walau dengan setitis dusta
Terbakar hari panas mentari
Panas lagi cinta ini
Haruskah kita terus begini
Dalam mencari erti cinta
Hingga kita bisa tersinggung
Walau dnegan setitis dusta
Diam bukan bererti
Aku tidak mengerti
Dan bukan cumbu rayu
Yang mebuat kita rindu
Lumrahnya cinta
Sedang kita alami cinta sepi
Dekat ku rasa jauh pun ku rasa
Sekuat mana getaran cinta kita

“INTO THE JAWS OF HELL FOR JUSTICE...”
I based this badge upon the ones worn by the Space Rangers, from the early ‘90s U.S television series of the same name.
I sculpted it in plasticene, moulded it in rubber, and generally cast it in FastCast plastic, though this particular copy I made in one of the hard casting plasters, just because I was doing a pour with it and the mould was handy.
Found out later that the badges worn on the uniforms had different lettering to the one featured in the title sequence, no doubt because the streamlined lettering used in the logo was easier to read than the ‘spacefont’ used on the props.
Set in 2104 on the frontier Earth colony world of Avalon, the 1993 television series “Space Rangers” was one of a number of attempts to blend the genres of police procedural and space based, futuristic science fiction.
The live action space based shows are generally not as successful as the contemporary or near future genre crossovers which pursue crimefighting in a genre context (which often have the advantage of featuring superpowered meta-humans) such as “Angel” or “Alien Nation”.
Mostly the space based cop shows come and go in the flash of a titanium badge, like the British “Star Cops” (1987, nine episodes) or Gerry Anderson’s “Space Precinct” (1994, 24 episodes). Anime shows of this sub genre tend to have somewhat longer space legs, no doubt due to the lower overall production costs. Exceptions to the rule are the multi-tasked space dramas like the various “Star Trek” incarnations, where the mission statement includes but is not limited to patrolling and police like duties, including some of the older shows like “Rocky Jones, Space Ranger” (1954, 39 episodes). “Captain Video And His Video Rangers” (1949- 1955) broke all the rules with a phenomenal 1,537 episodes!
The 1993 “Space Rangers” only managed a bare six episodes of varying quality, and essentially was totally eclipsed by the far better resourced “Deep Space Nine” and “Babylon Five”.
Still, I kind of liked its crew of constantly fatrigued, overworked and underpaid rangers, scraping by with obsolete equipment (and some of the team!) held together with duct tape and fencing wire. And then there were the totally fearsome “Banshees”, buggy space predators whose very mention made brave folks pee their spacesuits.
The ranger’s slingship #377, “Tin Lizzie” was a wicked looking lass, matched by it’s space-corseted (!) arse booting sheila pilot, Jojo (Marjorie Monaghan- before she joined the Mars Resistance in B-5). Everyone else in the crew generally wore tricked up overalls, with amusing cargo pockets made out of netting, which would probably be the last possible be-damned snagging fabric you’d want to wear in combat.
Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa got to play a hero for a change, as the warrior-monk Zylyn and it was fun seeing Linda Hunt as the tough Commander of Fort Hope.
Star Trek fans will have noticed Clint Howard playing the chief scientist; he was the ‘child’ alien Balok in the Classic Trek episode “The Corbomite Maneuver”, and later appeared in “Deep Space Nine” and “Enterprise”.
Jeff Kaake, who played the standard ironic anti-authority, rule breaking team leader, Cap’n Boone, later landed a recurring role in “Melrose Place” and now does screenwriting and producing. Jack McGee, the cybernetically handed engineer ‘Doc’ continues a solid career of playing character one-offs in series television and movies. Fort Hope’s unpleasant career 2IC, charged with implementing death by a thousand budget cuts to the long suffering frontline troops. was played by Gottfried John, a German actor who appears in many of Werner Fassbinder’s films, also played Juilius Caesar in an Asterix movie and a Russian general in “Goldeneye”.
I call “Space Rangers” a cop show, but it’s also very much a space western, an awful, brain-strangling cliche that can go ‘orribly wrong, usually when mutated into a one-off ‘themed’ episode in, say, “Original Battlestar Galactica” or “Lost In Space”. I’ve seen it done, very very right, of course, in “Firefly”, though the crew there were lawbreakers, admittedly in a universe where the “Law is an ass!”

This is the actual prop phaser rifle used for filming the second pilot, Where No Man Has Gone Before, composited from a recent auction catalog. The prop sold for over 200,000 USD earlier in 2013. This prop and the first pilot hand phaser have a distinctly old school sci-fi look to them, like they would have been at home in the late 1950s or early 1960s space adventure movies. The details visibile on the prop here are fun to see from different angles and offer views that were not visible in the broadcast episode. The prop has a high level of detail considering its single use (still running on pilot versus production budgets).
Every now and again something comes up for sale from the original filming of TOS. In the last year, the the large shuttle craft has been for sale in an on line auction for example. A couple of years back it was possible to buy Balok, here is a shot of him, somewhat the worse for wear, at that time from the catalog:
