FISH STORY FROM WICHITA EAGLE NEWSPAPER

2008-09-20T23:01:00.000-07:00

This was a pretty interesting story from The Sunday Wichita Eagle Newspaper a couple of weeks ago. A resident in the area saw a ball bouncing around in the pond and when he went to investigate, it was a flathead catfish who had obviously tried to swallow a child's basketball which got stuck in its mouth. The fish was totally exhausted from trying to dive but unable to, because the ball would always bring him back up to the surface. The resident tried numerous times to get the ball out but was unsuccessful. He finally had his wife cut the ball in order to deflate the ball and release the catfish.

You wouldn't believe it if you didn't see the attached photos.

Preventing Heat-Related Illness

2008-09-03T07:58:00.000-07:00

Dress for the heat. Wear lightweight, light-colored clothing. Light colors will reflect away some of the sun's energy. It is also a good idea to wear hats or to use an umbrella.

Drink water. Carry water or juice with you and drink small amounts every fifteen minutes. Avoid drinking alcohol and caffeine, which will dehydrate the body.

Eat small meals and eat more often. Avoid foods that are high in protein. They will increase your metabolic heat.

Avoid using salt tablets unless directed to do so by a physician.

Slow down. Avoid strenuous activity. If you must do strenuous activity, do it during the coolest part of the day, which is usually in the morning between 4:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m.

Stay indoors when possible.

Take regular breaks when engaged in physical activity on warm days. Take time out to find a cool place. If you recognize that you, or someone else, are showing the signals of a heat-related illness, stop activity and find a cool place

Are you drinking the right tea?

2008-09-03T01:12:00.000-07:00

P/S:DON'T DRINK A LONG ISLAND TEA sudah laa

SOYA BEAN

All of us know that soyabean drink provides good protein to our body... but many of us don't know that there are certain days we should avoid drinking it.

Soya bean drinks are best consumed on hot sunny days when the sun is strong. The soya milk will give lots of nutrients to the body as the body is able to absorb the protein well.

However, avoid the drink when the weather is cloudy or raining. Taking the dr ink in these weather, the body will not be able to take in the protein and will result in a disease called 'GOUT' or 'high acidic urine' due to the high protein residue in the body, after a long run.

This disease will cause pain to your knee joints and it will only be in control when you control your food intake of proteins and medication. The pain is unbearable and usually you will have no idea what you have taken to cause the pain. Food like soya beans, ikan bilis, broccoli, spinach, peanuts, &n bsp;animal organs ( i.e. pork liver) etc will have to be avoided to prevent the pain from attacking.

So my friend, pass this to your family, relatives and friends to keep an alert on the pros and cons of soya bean milk and when it is to be taken and to be avoided.

The Main Styles of Fashion Jeans

2008-08-28T03:50:00.000-07:00

1) Baggy
- The major appeal of baggy jeans is the comfort. So, if you're looking for a pair of jeans in which to hang around your apartment or go to a movie, spend the day in the park, baggies are a great choice. You have to be careful while shopping for baggy jeans to pay attention to your look and height and size. Baggy jeans can make guys who are on the slim side look slimmer and guys on the bigger side look a little bigger.

2) Carpenter/worker
- Fashion Guy tells us these are not the best in a fashion choice they are great for exactly what they are called Worker jeans. They are best worn on the construction site, or while painting working on your house or boat. You will get the most comfort from these mens fashion jeans .. but not the most style.

3) Relaxed/loose fit
- Loose-fit jeans offer the best of both worlds for men; they're comfortable, but also look good. Relaxed jeans are perfect for running weekend errands, out on a casual afternoon date. Relaxed/loose fit jeans looks great with a cool tee shirt or loose button down shirt.

4) Boot cut
- The Boot cut is by far our favorite cut. It is sexy and classy. The fit is very attractive worn with a tighter fitting shirt. The perfect date or night on the town Jean. This jean looks great with a casual jacket and boots.

There are a few others, the Tappered Leg or Euro look, the Retro look these are great jeans if you are going to a club or concert you will not get the most comfort or versatility out of these jeans, they are very trendy and trends like this go in and out.

Drug rehabilitation

2008-08-10T06:43:00.000-07:00

Drug rehabilitation (often drug rehab or just rehab) is an umbrella term for the processes of medical and/or psychotherapeutic treatment, for dependency on psychoactive substances such as alcohol, prescription drugs, and so-called street drugs such as cocaine, heroin or amphetamines. The general intent is to enable the patient to cease substance abuse, in order to avoid the psychological, legal, financial, social, and physical consequences that can be caused, especially by extreme abuse.

Psychological dependency
Psychological dependency is addressed in many drug rehabilitation programs by attempting to teach the patient new methods of interacting in a drug-free environment. In particular, patients are generally encouraged or required not to associate with friends who still use the addictive substance. Twelve-step programs encourage addicts not only to stop using alcohol or other drugs, but to examine and change habits related to their addictions. Many programs emphasize recovery is a permanent process without culmination. For legal drugs such as alcohol, complete abstention—rather than attempts at moderation, which may lead to relapse—is also emphasized ("One drink is too many; one hundred drinks is not enough.") Whether moderation is achievable by those with a history of abuse remains a controversial point but is generally considered unsustainable.

Types of treatment
Various types of programs offer help in drug rehabilitation, including: residential treatment (in-patient), out-patient, local support groups, extended care centers, and sober houses. Newer rehab centers offer age and gender specific programs.

Signs and symptoms of mesothelioma

2008-08-07T21:49:00.000-07:00

Symptoms of mesothelioma may not appear until 20 to 50 years after exposure to asbestos. Shortness of breath, cough, and pain in the chest due to an accumulation of fluid in the pleural space are often symptoms of pleural mesothelioma.

Symptoms of peritoneal mesothelioma include weight loss and cachexia, abdominal swelling and pain due to ascites (a buildup of fluid in the abdominal cavity). Other symptoms of peritoneal mesothelioma may include bowel obstruction, blood clotting abnormalities, anemia, and fever. If the cancer has spread beyond the mesothelium to other parts of the body, symptoms may include pain, trouble swallowing, or swelling of the neck or face.

These symptoms may be caused by mesothelioma or by other, less serious conditions.
Mesothelioma that affects the pleura can cause these signs and symptoms:

chest wall pain
pleural effusion, or fluid surrounding the lung
shortness of breath
fatigue or anemia
wheezing, hoarseness, or cough
blood in the sputum (fluid) coughed up (hemoptysis)

In severe cases, the person may have many tumor masses. The individual may develop a pneumothorax, or collapse of the lung. The disease may metastasize, or spread, to other parts of the body.

Tumors that affect the abdominal cavity often do not cause symptoms until they are at a late stage. Symptoms include:

abdominal pain

abnormal buildup of fluid in the abdomen
a mass in the abdomen
problems with bowel function
weight loss

In severe cases of the disease, the following signs and symptoms may be present:

blood clots in the veins, which may cause thrombophlebitis
disseminated intravascular coagulation, a disorder causing severe bleeding in many body organs
jaundice, or yellowing of the eyes and skin
low blood sugar level
pleural effusion
pulmonary emboli, or blood clots in the arteries of the lungs
severe ascites

A mesothelioma does not usually spread to the bone, brain, or adrenal glands. Pleural tumors are usually found only on one side of the lungs.

mesothelioma

2008-08-07T21:47:00.000-07:00

Mesothelioma is a form of cancer that is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos. In this disease, malignant cells develop in the mesothelium, a protective lining that covers most of the body's internal organs. Its most common site is the pleura (outer lining of the lungs and chest cavity), but it may also occur in the peritoneum (the lining of the abdominal cavity) or the pericardium (a sac that surrounds the heart).

Most people who develop mesothelioma have worked on jobs where they inhaled asbestos particles, or they have been exposed to asbestos dust and fibre in other ways, such as by washing the clothes of a family member who worked with asbestos. Unlike lung cancer, there is no association between mesothelioma and smoking.[1] Compensation via asbestos funds or lawsuits is an important issue in mesothelioma (see asbestos and the law).

The symptoms of mesothelioma include shortness of breath due to pleural effusion (fluid between the lung and the chest wall) or chest wall pain, and general symptoms such as weight loss. The diagnosis can be made with chest X-rays and a CT scan, and confirmed with a biopsy (tissue sample) and microscopic examination. A thoracoscopy (inserting a tube with a camera into the chest) can be used to take biopsies. It allows the introduction of substances such as talc to obliterate the pleural space (called pleurodesis), which prevents more fluid from accumulating and pressing on the lung. Despite treatment with chemotherapy, radiation therapy or sometimes surgery, the disease carries a poor prognosis. Research about screening tests for the early detection of mesothelioma is ongoing.

Breast Cancer: The Basics

2008-07-29T01:18:00.000-07:00

What is the breast?
The breast is a collection of glands and fatty tissue that lies between the skin and the chest wall. The glands inside the breast produce milk after a woman has a baby. Each gland is also called a lobule, and many lobules make up a lobe. There are 15 to 20 lobes in each breast. The milk gets to the nipple from the glands by way of tubes called ducts. The glands and ducts get bigger when a breast is filled with milk, but the tissue that is most responsible for the size and shape the breast is the fatty tissue. There are also blood vessels and lymph vessels in the breast. Lymph is a clear liquid waste product that gets drained out of the breast into lymph nodes. Lymph nodes are small, pea-sized pieces of tissue that filter and clean the lymph. Most lymph nodes that drain the breast are under the arm in what is called the axilla.

What is breast cancer?
Collections of cells that are growing abnormally or without control are called tumors. Tumors that do not have the ability to spread throughout the body may be referred to as “benign” and are not thought of as cancerous. Tumors that have the ability to grow into other tissues or spread to distant parts of the body are referred to as “malignant.” Malignant tumors within the breast are called “breast cancer”. Theoretically, any of the types of tissue in the breast can form a cancer, cancer cells are most likely to develop from either the ducts or the glands. These tumors may be referred to as “invasive ductal carcinoma” (cancer cells developing from ducts), or “invasive lobular carcinoma” (cancer cells developing from lobes).

Sometimes, precancerous cells may be found within breast tissue, and are referred to as ductal carcinoma in-situ (DCIS) or lobular carcinoma in-situ (LCIS). DCIS and LCIS are diseases in which cancerous cells are present within breast tissue, but are not able to spread or invade other tissues. DCIS represents about 20% of all breast cancers. Because DCIS cells may become capable of invading breast tissue, treatment for DCIS is usually recommended. In contrast, treatment is usually not needed for LCIS.

What are the signs of breast cancer?
Unfortunately, the early stages of breast cancer may not have any symptoms. This is why it is important to follow screening recommendations. As a tumor grows in size, it can produce a variety of symptoms including:

-lump or thickening in the breast or underarm
-change in size or shape of the breast
-nipple discharge or nipple turning inward
-redness or scaling of the skin or nipple
-ridges or pitting of the breast skin

These symptoms do not always signify the presence of breast cancer, but they should always be evaluated immediately by a healthcare professional.

Snoring - Home Treatment

2008-07-24T01:41:00.000-07:00

Snoring generally is first treated at home. Treatment includes:

Losing weight. Many people who snore are overweight. Weight loss can help reduce the narrowing of the airway and possibly reduce or eliminate snoring.

Limiting the use of alcohol and medications. Drinking excessive amounts of alcohol or taking certain medications, especially sleeping pills or tranquilizers, before sleep may worsen snoring.

Going to bed at the same time each night and getting plenty of sleep. Snoring may be more frequent when you have not had enough sleep.

Sleeping on your side. Sleeping on your side may eliminate snoring. Try sewing a pocket in the middle of the back of your pajama top, putting a tennis ball into the pocket, and stitching it closed. This will help keep you from sleeping on your back.

Promptly treating breathing problems. Breathing problems caused by colds or allergies can disturb airflow, leading to snoring.

Using nasal strips. Nasal strips, such as Breathe Right, widen the nostrils and improve airflow.

Therapy: Man's Last Stand

2008-07-24T01:28:00.000-07:00

The woods are burning. The roof is falling in. The guy can't sleep, can't think and now he's having panic attacks.

Maybe it's time to consider therapy.

Then again, maybe not. The men of Metallica, it seems, broke new ground. "The average man is as likely to ask for help with a psychological problem as he is to ask for directions," says Terrence Real, executive director of the Relational Recovery Institute in Watertown, Massachusetts, and author of How Can I Get Through to You? Reconnecting Men and Women. The reluctance is always the same: Therapy is not "manly."

"We teach men to be almost the opposite of what's required for therapy," says Gary Brooks, professor of psychology at Baylor University in Texas and author of A New Psychotherapy for Traditional Men. "By the time they're in elementary school, boys have gotten the message that showing sadness or fear is a sign of weakness," says Ronald F. Levant, dean of the Center for Psychological Studies at Nova Southeastern University in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Decades after the much trumpeted rise of the "sensitive" guy, most men continue to keep their feelings hidden—even from themselves. For many men, negative emotions arouse such shame and discomfort that they cease to experience them altogether. "The four words men most dread hearing from women are 'We have to talk,' as that invariably means talking about emotions," says Levant.

Yet somehow men do find themselves in therapy in increasing numbers. Twenty-two percent of men sought mental health treatment from 2002 to 2004, according to Therapy in America, a poll sponsored by Psychology Today and PacifiCare Behavioral Health, Inc. The survey found that men constitute 37 percent of the total number of patients in treatment. "More people are going into treatment overall, but the proportion of men to women has not changed," says Jerome Vaccaro, president and CEO of PacifiCare.

Granted, both men and women often opt for medication over talk therapy, but seek therapy men do. What makes them ink the appointment? More often than not, the impetus is a woman. A typical male patient has been sent—usually by his wife, girlfriend or children, sometimes by his employer. Behind the command performance is a threat: "You change, or it's all over."
"I call them 'wife-mandated referrals,'" says Real.

Although depression, anxiety and shame may lurk beneath the surface, what's on the table is usually relationship problems. To defend against unwelcome feelings, many men adopt an attitude of superiority, entitlement and contempt for others. "They're not in pain," says Real. "The people around them are in pain."

The men who enter therapy of their own volition have often hit rock bottom, says Levant. The despair they've denied or stifled with alcohol or overwork has spiraled until they can't fake it anymore. Often, it's the collapse of a marriage—unexpected, because months or years of warning signs have been ignored. "These men are in a daze," Levant says. "They don't know what hit them."

Then there's the matter of stigma. More than one in five men in the Therapy in America survey said they didn't trust therapists and wouldn't want to be associated with the type of person who receives therapy. Only one in 10 women held these views. But such stigma appears to be in decline, thanks in part to Dr. Phil and Tony Soprano, who have eclipsed the uptight, cerebral Frasier and Woody Allen as exemplars of male therapist and client, respectively.

More good news: Once men get down to business, opening up often brings a rapid sense of relief. "They've admitted something they were ashamed of, gotten it off their chest, and the world hasn't collapsed," says Levant. Indeed, the survey found that men and women were equally satisfied with their treatment experience.

For men, the biggest hurdle, whether you're a world-class rocker or a certified public accountant, is getting in the door.

Yoga: Stretch for Your Health

2008-07-24T00:26:00.000-07:00

Yoga, one of today's hottest fitness trends, is a centuries-old Indian practice that tones muscles, builds bone strength and enhances flexibility and coordination. It also fosters a mind/body unity that few exercise programs can offer.

The very word "yoga" comes from a Sanskrit word meaning "to yoke"—in other words, to join mind, body and breath. There are 40 types of yoga, but Americans are most familiar with hatha yoga, which focuses on poses, stretches, breathing exercises and meditation. Other types are more physically demanding and require a greater degree of flexibility to negotiate the pretzel-like poses.

At its most basic, yoga instills a sense of calm and relaxation. Eastern philosophy holds that yoga heals by releasing prana, the body's vital energy. When prana is blocked, illness can result. Western practitioners believe yoga's deeply relaxing breath work allows the body's healing abilities to take over. Research also indicates that yoga helps alleviate the discomfort associated with backache, PMS, headaches and arthritis. And an 11-week-long study conducted at the Pondicherry University in India found that yoga's stress-reducing capabilities worked as well as a hypertension drug in controlling blood pressure.

"Yoga's deep relaxation soothes the nervous system," says Rachel Schaeffer, author of Yoga for Your Spiritual Muscles (Quest Books, 1998). So when things get tough, a deep breath and a stretch may be the best medicine.

Beware the Bikini

2008-07-22T02:56:00.000-07:00

When you go to the beach, you worry about sunburn, how you look in your swimsuit, maybe even sharks. But men now have something else to fear: bikinis.

A study in the Journal of Consumer Research says scantily clad women can make men do stupid things. (Did we really need a study to prove this?)

When men looked at photos of beautiful women, watched video of women running in bikinis, and touched bras, their desire for immediate gratification increased. Which caused them to seek instant reward, even when making decisions about money or food.

"It seems that sexual appetite causes a greater urgency to consume anything rewarding," the authors suggest.

The men who handled lingerie were more likely to be satisfied with a smaller immediate monetary reward. (We see this as some sort of excuse to get out of doing the laundry. "Sorry honey, your bras make me want to spend money frivolously." It's worth a shot, right?)
The authors say sexy stimuli could mean the difference between selecting chocolate cake or fruit for dessert. Think about that next time you're at Hooters.

The researchers believe the beautiful women make men's minds shift to the here and now (yummy chocolate cake) instead of thinking long-term (trying to flatten your belly).
Whatever the reason, we're not going to stop admiring beautiful women. We'll deal with any consequences later.

Hungry for Money?

2008-07-22T02:53:00.000-07:00

The next time you have a big financial decision to make, you might want to break for lunch.

New research from Cambridge University shows the hormones associated with an empty stomach can prompt careless and irrational decisions. In this study, participants were asked to make financial deals after being treated unfairly. The ones with the lowest seratonin levels were more likely to reject monetary offers and walk away empty-handed.

'Our results suggest that serotonin plays a critical role in social decision making by normally keeping aggressive social responses in check,' researcher Molly Crockett, a PhD student told a British newspaper.

While other studies show snap decisions are best, the low seratonin level associated with skipping meals can be unhelpful, prompting irrational reactions.

DON'T ACT THE 7 ACTIONS AFTER YOU HAVE A MEAL

2008-07-22T02:36:00.000-07:00

1) Don't smoke- Experiment from experts proves that smoking a cigarette after meal is comparable to smoking 10 cigarettes (chances of cancer is higher).

2) Don't eat fruits immediately - Immediately eating fruits after meals will cause stomach to be bloated with air. Therefore take fruit 1-2 hr after meal or 1hr before meal.

3) Don't drink tea - Because tea leaves contain a high content of acid. This substance will cause the Protein content in the food we consume to be hardened thus difficult to digest.

4) Don't loosen your belt - Loosening the belt after a meal will easily cause the intestine to be twisted & blocked.

5) Don't bathe - Bathing after meal will cause the increase of blood flow to the hands, legs & body thus the amount of blood around the stomach will therefore decrease. This will weaken the digestive system in our stomach.

6) Don't walk about - People always say that after a meal walk a hundred steps and you will live till 99. In actual fact this is not true. Walking will cause the digestive system to be unable to absorb the nutrition from the food we intake.

7) Don't sleep immediately - The food we intake will not be able to digest properly. Thus will lead to gastric & infection in our intestine.

LYRIC OF I'M YOURS

2008-07-20T07:15:00.000-07:00

Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill but you're so hot that I melted
I fell right through the cracks
and now I'm trying to get back
Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
Nothing's going to stop me but divine intervention
I reckon its again my turn to win some or learn some

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait, I'm yours

Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music of the moment people dance and sing
we're just one big family
and it's our God-forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved

So I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm sure
There's no need to complicate
Our time is short
This is our fate, I'm yours

I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I been saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to doOur name is our virtue

But I won't hesitate no more, no more
It cannot wait I'm yours

Well no no, well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free
Look into your heart and you'll find that the sky is yours
so please don't, please don't, please don't
there's no need to complicate
cause our time is short
this uh, this uh, this is our fate
i'm yours

Color Scheme

2008-07-18T20:53:00.000-07:00

Pick clothes in colors that flatter

Shades that are too close to your skin tone tend to wash you out. Tanned or olive skin looks delicious with contrasting bright colors and whites. Soft pastels and earth tones add an appealing creaminess to fair skin tones. Here's a tip that women notice and love: Wear a shirt that matches your eye color.

The guy equivalent of the 'little black dress'
The key is to avoid anything you'd wear to a board meeting or feel overdressed in at your favorite bar. Flat-front, black cotton slacks (try Hugo Boss) work well. A pair of straight-leg indigo jeans (Seven) will also do the trick.

Pair that with a colorful cotton shirt in anything from baby blue to funky stripes--Etro makes a supersharp line. For a dressier event, add a sport jacket like those by Polo (no front pocket, please).

Get this right and you'll be keeping the phone number of that girl in the little black dress in your little black book.

Guidelines for matching clothing

Always sport a neutral like black or denim. Keep the colors to two per outfit. Don't mix shades that are too similar--instead go for contrast. When combining patterns, make sure they're different sizes, like a shirt with thin vertical stripes and a tie with large checks.

Shoes to go with navy pants

Black pants require black shoes. Navy slacks require caramel or chocolate-brown shoes. Just as in boxing, being black and blue is never a good thing.

Your belt should always match the color of your dress shoes

Belts: It's not enough to have one black belt, one brown belt, and the cloth promotional one you got at the golf outing. You need a precise match--in finish and color, and even buckle material--for every pair of shoes you own. When you buy a new pair of shoes, march right over to the belt rack and find their twin.

The pattern rules for stripes

Pattern rules are as follows:

• When wearing two of the same kind of pattern--two stripes, two checks--make sure they're of different scales.

• If the pinstripes in the suit are narrow-gauge, the stripes in your tie must be wide, and vice versa. Conversely, if you want to combine two different patterns, be sure they're of the same scale. So, a windowpane suit with big squares would require a tie with wide stripes; a shirt with small tattersall checks calls for a tie with narrow stripes.

• One more consideration: "A common denominator of color is imperative," says Macko. "If you're going to put a houndstooth with a stripe, make sure they share a color between them."

• You can combine three patterns in the triangle where shirt, jacket, and tie meet, but it takes a little something called taste. "If you're mixing patterns, don't be meek," says Macko. "If you have to think too much about it, don't bother." For the brave, here are the guidelines, according to Flusser. Three stripes? The shirt has the narrowest, the jacket the second, and the tie the widest stripe. Two stripes and a check? The stripes should be different sizes, and the check size should correspond to that of the wider stripe.

The Clothes Make the Interview (make a good impression)

2008-07-18T20:33:00.000-07:00

With the job market heating up again, we should all remember that the best attired is still the first hired. So for the next round of interviews, recruit a friendly spy in the office you'll be visiting. If the boss's assistant is warm-blooded, chat her up about the style of the office you'll be visiting. It'll give you a chance to charm her and will show how thoroughly you do your homework. Such due diligence can even help you score a tip about the boss's predilections, the state of your competition, or even a favorable interview slot. (The last guy interviewed lands the job 56 percent of the time--assuming he's dressed okay.) You've gotten the jump on candidates who didn't call ahead.

Are visible tattoos and piercings a problem in an office environment?

No one will give a guy a hard time for a small tattoo or a stylish earring. But anything more punk means problems. "Perception makes or breaks a company?s reputation," says Gloria Petersen, of Global Protocol, a business-etiquette consulting firm in Chicago. To clients, you are a representative of your company. To coworkers, someone radically different won't be perceived as a team player. Plus, says Petersen, "When an accessory is annoying, weird, or painful-looking, it's distracting." Do you want superiors to look at your work or your fly-tackle face? Best bet: Respect the job from 9 to 5, then go metal when your night and weekend minutes kick in.

Wear a watch to your interview

Unless they want a creative type, bosses should never hire a candidate who doesn't wear a watch. He won't know the difference between 3:45 and 4:10, and will say "tomorrow afternoon" as if it had some meaning

20 Simple Tips for the Perfect Date

2008-07-18T20:18:00.000-07:00

1. It's okay to suggest a drink instead of dinner for a first date. She dreads a boring four-course ordeal, too.

2. Call her by early evening on Monday to confirm a Tuesday get-together. (Weekends aren't for first dates.)

3. Leave your home and work numbers. No home number and she'll assume you have a wife or girlfriend.

4. If you want to keep the plans a surprise, at least clue her in as to what to wear. You do not want an overdressed, overstressed woman navigating the Talladega pits in high heels

5. Yes, she'll notice if the date location you've chosen is conveniently around the block from your place.

6. Don't assume that just because you're out with a beautiful woman, she knows how pretty she looks -- she wants to hear it from you.

7. Ask if she's too cold or too warm, and if changing the temperature is in your power, fix it.

8. Men judge women according to whether they can picture having sex with them; women judge men by whether they can imagine kissing them. White teeth, fresh breath, and unchapped lips make her more apt to pucker up.

9. Do not ask her, "So, what kind of music do you like?" The last 25 guys asked that. Be original.

10. She loves when you insist on ordering dessert. Sharing = extra sexy.

11. Tip well: Grab the check, mentally divide the bill by 10, double that number, and throw down the tip. Do it quickly but casually. Believe me, she'll be watching.

12. If she touches your arm, she's interested; if she touches your leg, she's interested tonight.

13. When in doubt, hold her hand.

14. Very small protective gestures go a long way and show her you're a gentleman: Offer your arm as she's stepping from a curb, direct her away from shards of broken glass aka Say Anything. She'll notice if you wait until she's safely in her car or house before you leave. Wait the extra 90 seconds, and next time you might be going in with her.

15. She expects you to know her eye color after the first date.

16. Women need momentum -- without it, they lose interest or wonder if you have. Momentum = a minimum of one date a week, plus a couple of phone calls in between.

17. She knows that when you invite her over for a homemade meal or to watch a movie, it's code for "tonight is hook-up night." Don't play this card any earlier than date three.

18. A Friday or Saturday night is required by date four. Otherwise, she'll wonder who else you're seeing.

19. Rule of Groping: If anything happens that couldn't be shown on prime-time TV, call her the next day. Otherwise, she'll feel cheap and used.

20. Don't say, "I'll call you," if you have no intention to. She'd prefer that you say nothing at all.

FOR MALAYS WHOSE FORGOT THEIR HISTORY

2008-07-18T19:55:00.000-07:00

Malays (Malay: Melayu) are an ethnic group of Austronesian peoples predominantly inhabiting the Malay Peninsula and parts of Sumatra and Borneo. The Malay ethnic group is distinct from the concept of a Malay race, which encompasses a wider group of people, including most of Indonesia and the Philippines. The Malay language is a member of the Austronesian family of languages.

History

The Malay people are believed to have originated in Borneo and then expanded outwards into Sumatra and later into the Malay Peninsula.[citation needed] These people were descendants of Austronesian-speakers who migrated from the Philippines and originally from Taiwan. The main foundation of this school of thought lies in the fact that the oldest Malay settlements have been discovered in Sumatra and not in the Malay Peninsula. This suggests an upward - south to north - migratory route. Malay culture reached its golden age during Srivijayan times. Malays practiced Buddhism, Hinduism, and their native Animism before converting to Islam in the 15th century.

Etymology

According to the History of Jambi, the word Melayu originated from a river with name Melayu River near to Batang Hari River of today's Muara Jambi, Jambi province of Sumatra, Indonesia. The founder of Malacca, Parameswara was a prince of Palembang which was once owned by a nation called "Malayu" back in the seventh century. Yi Jing (635-713) clearly recorded in his journal book a nation of name 'Ma-La-Yu' existed. According to archaeological research of Jambi, large numbers of ancient artifacts and ancient architectures of Melayu have been found with photo evidence.

The word "Malay" was adopted into English via the Dutch word "Malayo", itself from Portuguese "Malaio", which originates from the Malay word "Melayu". According to one popular theory, the word Melayu means "migrating" or "fleeing", which might refer to the high mobility of these people across the region (cf. Javanese verb 'mlayu' means "to run", cognate with Malay verb 'melaju', means "to accelerate") or perhaps the original meaning is "distant, far away" (cf. Tagalog 'malayo') with the root word 'layo', which means 'distance' or 'far' in Tagalog and some Malayo-Polynesian languages.

Another theory holds that the name refers to the Tamil word Malai Yur which means "Land of Mountains" (malai means mountain and yur means land), a reference to the hilly nature of the Malay Archipelago.

Alternate uses of the term

The name Malay is sometimes used to describe the concept of a Malay race, which includes all the ethnic groups inhabiting the Malay Archipelago and which are not of older aboriginal stock.
The term Melayu (Malay person in the Malay Language), in the Federal Constitution of Malaysia, refers to a person who professes Islam, habitually speaks the Malay language, conforms to Malay custom and who has at least one ancestor from the Malay Peninsula or Singapore.

Ethnic group vs. cultural sphere

The term "Malay" can refer to the ethnic group who live in the Malay peninsula (which include the southernmost part of Thailand called Patani and Satun) and east Sumatra as well as the cultural sphere that encompass a large part of the archipelago.
The Malay ethnic group is the majority in Malaysia and Brunei and a sizable minority in Singapore and Indonesia. This people speak various dialects of Malay language. The peninsular dialect is the standard speech among Malays in Malaysia and Singapore. Meanwhile, the Riau dialect of eastern Sumatra has been adopted as a national tongue, Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), for the whole Indonesian population.The ethnic Malay have had a Muslim culture since the 15th century.

In Malaysia, the majority of the population is made up of ethnic Malays while the minorities consist of southern Chinese (e.g. Hokkien and Cantonese), southern Indians (mainly Tamils), non-ethnic Malay indigenous peoples (e.g. Iban and Kadazan), as well as Eurasians.
Malay cultural influences filtered out throughout the archipelago, such as the monarchical state, religion (Hinduism/Buddhism in the first millennium AD, Islam in the second millennium), and the Malay language. The influential Srivijaya kingdom had unified the various ethnic groups in southeast Asia into a convergent cultural sphere for almost a millennium. It was during that time that vast borrowing of Sanskrit words and concepts facilitated the advanced linguistic development of Malay as a language. Malay was the regional lingua franca, and Malay-based creole languages existed in most trading ports in Indonesia.

9 words women use...

2008-07-18T17:31:00.000-07:00

1.) Fine : This is the word women use to end an argument when they areright and you need to shut up.

2.) Five Minutes : If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour.Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3.) Nothing : This is the calm before the storm. This means something,and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothingusually ends in "fine".

4.) Go Ahead : This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

5.) Loud Sigh : This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statementoften misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6.) That's Okay : This is one of the most dangerous statements a womancan make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7.) Thanks : A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Justsay you're welcome.

8.) Whatever : Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!

9.) Don't worry about it, I got it : Another dangerous statement, meaningthis is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response refer to #3.

Send this to the men you know, to warn them about arguments they can avoid if they remember the terminology.

TIPS KESIHATAN LELAKI

2008-07-18T07:16:00.000-07:00

Kajian menunjukkan 3 Juta rakyat Malaysia lelaki menghadapi masalah lemah tenaga batin atau gejala mati pucuk. Kajian para saintis juga menunjukkan 60% wanita tidak mendapatkan kepuasan seks sepenuhnya semasa bersetubuh akibat daripada kelemahan tenaga batin lelaki. Adakah anda sedang mengalami tanda-tanda seperti berikut?

1. Kerap buang air kecil waktu siang atau malam.
2. Kencing tidak lawas.
3. Aliran air kencing tersekat-sekat dan lemah.
4. Air kencing masih menitis selepas membuang air kecil.
5. Tunggu lama untuk kencing, terpaksa meneran untuk kencing.
6. Kencing keluar secara tidak sengaja.
7. Air kencing mengandungi darah.

Sekiranya ini terjadi, anda sedang mengalami Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) atau tanda-tanda awal Kanser Prostat. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) adalah pembesaran Kelenjar Prostat secara berlebihan yang bersifat bukan kanser. Pembesaran Kelenjar Prostat ini disebabkan oleh hormon lelaki iaitu testosterone dan kehadiran hormon Dihidrostestosteron (DHT) secara berlebihan. Kehadiran dan perubahan paras hormon ini berlaku akibat peningkatan usia terutamanya pada usia 45 tahun dan ke atas.

Kelenjar Prostat yang bengkak dan diabaikan akan menyebabkan saluran kencing tersekat, lalu menyebabkan pundi kencing terpaksa bekerja lebih keras untuk mengeluarkan air kencing. Akibatnya, pundi kencing menjadi lemah dan pundi kencing tidak dapat dikosongkan sepenuhnya yang boleh menyebabkan jangkitan air kencing. Jika ini berlaku, batu karang akan terbentuk dalam pundi kencing dan akan menyebabkan kerosakan buah pinggang.

MAY 13 TRAGEDY!!

2008-07-15T06:18:00.000-07:00

The May 13 Incident is a term for the Sino-Malay race riots in Kuala Lumpur (then part of the state of Selangor), Malaysia, which began on May 13, 1969. These riots continued for a substantial period of time, leading the government to declare a state of national emergency and suspend Parliament until 1971.
Officially, 196 people were killed between May 13 and July 31 as a result of the riots, although journalists and other observers have stated much higher figures. The government cited the riots as the main cause of its more aggressive affirmative action policies, such as the New Economic Policy (NEP), after 1969.

FORMATION OF MALAYSIA

On its formation in 1963, Malaysia, a federation incorporating Malaya (Peninsular Malaysia), Singapore, North Borneo (Sabah) and Sarawak, suffered from a sharp division of wealth between the Chinese, who were perceived to control a large portion of the Malaysian economy, and the Malays, who were perceived to be more poor and rural. This was the common perception even though the British left all of their conglomerates (mostly plantation sectors) into the hands of the ruling Malays. These already successful companies started by the former colonial masters were the economy of this new born nation which are still going strong till this day.
The 1964 Race Riots in Singapore contributed to the expulsion of that state from Malaysia on 9 August 1965, and racial tension continued to simmer, with many Malays dissatisfied by their newly independent government's perceived willingness to placate the Chinese at their expense.

METROSEXUAL

2008-07-15T06:02:00.000-07:00

Metrosexual is a neologism generally applied to heterosexual men with a strong concern for their appearance, or whose lifestyles display attributes stereotypically seen among gay men. Metrosexualism is closely related to Dandyism. Debate surrounds the term's use as a theoretical signifier of gender deconstruction and its associations with consumerism. The word was coined as a tongue-in-cheek play on "heterosexual".

Dato' Anthony Francis Fernandes (born 1964; also known as Tony Fernandes) is a Malaysian entrepreneur and the founder of Tune Air Sdn. Bhd., who introduced the first budget no-frills airline, AirAsia, to Malaysians with the tagline "Now everyone can fly".
He rose to prominence by turning AirAsia, a fledging government-linked commercial airline, into a highly successful public-listed company. Fernandes was also instrumental in lobbying the then-Malaysian Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad in mid-2003, to propose the idea of open skies agreements with neighbouring Thailand, Indonesia, and Singapore. As a result, these nations have granted landing rights to AirAsia and other discount carriers.

Born in Kuala Lumpur, Fernandes is part Goan and part Malacca Portuguese, is the son of the late Stephen Edward Fernandes, and Ena Dorothy Fernandez. When he was young, he used to follow his mother, a businesswoman, to Tupperware dealer parties and conventions.
He was educated at Epsom College 1977-83 and then graduated from the London School of Economics in 1987. He worked very briefly with Virgin Atlantic as an auditor, subsequently becoming the financial controller for Richard Branson's Virgin Records in London from 1987 to 1989.[1]
Tony was admitted as Associate Member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) in 1991 and became Fellow Member in 1996.
Upon his return to Malaysia, he became the youngest-ever managing director of Warner Music (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd. Though an accountant, Fernandes is an amateur guitarist and also has achieved grade 8 piano which is where his musical inclination lies. He was responsible for revolutionising ethnic music, nasyid and dangdut, bringing them into the mainstream of contemporary Malaysian music.
He subsequently became the South East Asian regional vice-president for Warner Music Group from 1992-2001. When Time Warner Inc announced its merger with America Online Inc., Fernandes left to pursue his dream of starting a budget no-frills airline. However, his application for a license from the Malaysian government was rejected.
