I shouldn’t post something bad about WordPressat a time like this. After all, WordPress turns five today. Don’t get me all wrong. I love WordPress as a blogging platform. There were problems in the begining but the more I got used to it, the better it became.

That was until version 2.5 came along. Suddenly my beloved turned against me. She was like a total stranger. Not only did she had a total make over dashboard. There were some changes which I totally hate. I could no longer drag and drop my widgets from one column to the other. Blogging had became a chore all of a sudden.

What happen to you WordPress? Please bring back my beloved drag and drop function of widget. By the way, Happy Birthday my love.

Both Malaysian and Singaporean are still badly shaken by this piece news. Foreign registered vehicles can no longer fill up their petrol tank within 50km of the border effectively from this Friday.

Many Singaporean make weekly trips to Malaysia border towns like Johor for the cheaper food and petrol. Now with the ban, many might just stop visiting Malaysia altogether. Many business in Johor is going to be hit hard if Singaporeans decided not to visit. This had many Malaysian worrying about their business.

With the price of crude oil reaching a record high, Malaysia Government have came out creative ways to prevent the subsidized petrol benefiting foreigners instead of Malaysians. One suggestion is to use the Malaysia Identity Card to activate the petrol pump before refilling. But this are expensive to install at every oil station.

Indeed it is a harsh and unpopular decision which must be made for the good of Malaysia. Any petrol station found breaking the rule would be fine and jailed up to 3 years.

The only comforting news is that this ban would only be temporary till the Malaysia Government came out with a better management system for the fuel subsidy.

This tribute had brought me close to tears. To read about the suffering was one thing but to actually be able to see the suffering was so much different. It was so tempting to just pick up the phone and dial the numbers for Mediacorp Channel 8 Charity Show to make a donation but after the old National Kidney Foundation big scandal, I lost faith on Charity Shows that were being board casted on television.

There would always be unscrupulous business man out to make a quick buck in the name of charity but out of good faith, many of us Singaporeans still made a donation. I was both shock and angry to learn from SimplyJean’s article that the amount raised last night by Mediacorp Channel 8 Charity Show would be tax.

This wasn’t the first time such questions were raised by the public. I understood that there were operational costs to be covered. Every artist, camera man and that man on the street who had appeared on the charity show draws salary. But what percentage of the donation would go to those people in need after deducting the operational cost for the show?

Singaporeans were very happy that $9.5 million was raised? Yet would all the $9.5 million reached the needy? I felt that I had to know the actual amount raised after deducting operational cost. If the operational cost is more than half the amount raised, I rather donate through other channels. At least I know their operational costs were so much lower. Moreover I would get to know where did the money went with their annual reports.

Let us skip the middleman and donate straight to the organization that we trust. We can still make a difference by donating. I have donated to Red Cross Singapore China Earthquake Appeal. Have you did your part?

Health is Wealth

1 comment

The first 2 days of Chinese New Year are often filled with visiting of relatives and eating. All the goodies to eat your fill at every house visit. With fattening food such as love letters, pineapple tarts, peanuts, ba kwa (pork slices) and others, it’s easy to over-indulge.

I have been trying to control myself for those days but fell victim as the warm hosts would often ensure that I had something in my mouth. There goes my plans for some healthy weight loss.

From now on, I have to exercise to regularly to keep fit and lose that extra kilograms that I have been meaning to get rid of. By making myself lose weight, I will gain back my confidence. Being slim has its advantages such as the ease of buying clothes and less health problems.

Health is wealth, we don’t want to be lying in bed due to ailments that came about due to being ourselves not eating healthily and exercising less or none at all. One can’t be too careful about health as being on the heavy side, it does get difficult to get things going sometimes.

While there are various weight lose supplements available, it doesn’t hurt to do my part in exercising and eating more healthily, does it?

Mesothelioma Law

No comments

We all have health problems at one stage of our lives or the other. The common flu, headache, sore throat are some of the viruses that we get when our immune system is down.

Health reports have stated that we all have cancer cells, however, not all cells are cancerous as they progress at different stages. There are different types of cancers, lung, stomach, brain, blood, nose and bone. The rarely heard of cancer is mesothelioma.

Health is wealth and we don’t want to be caught unaware of mesothelioma law when it strikes. So, what is mesothelioma? It is a cancer of the mesothelium, the protective sac that covers and protects most internal organs of the body. The mesothelium has two layers, one, which covers the organ, and a second, which forms a sac around it.

How did it happen? Mesothelioma is caused when exposured to asbestos. Mesothelioma results from breathing microscopic asbestos fibers into the lungs. When breathed into the lungs, asbestos tears the lung tissue. Asbestos can be found in cement, brake linings, roof shingles, flooring products, textiles and insulation.

It is always a good idea to find out more about mesothelioma information before embarking on the unknown for the cure. So, take care of you and your family’s health.
