<div style="text-align: justify;">Jack Lalanne dies at the age of 96. I think people in Singapore remember him for promoting his famous Power Juicer on TV. He was promoting how important it is for you to have your fruits daily and showed how easy it is to make your own juice by using his Power Juicer.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Apart from those above, his previous achievements during his young days really sets him apart from other athletes. He is an amazing athelete, with resilience in mind and body even through out his old age. I mean, how many people can do 1000 push ups in 23 minutes! Wait, how many people can do push ups in 23 minutes?!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

Seriously, how cool is this phone? I think after seeing the video, you can see the potential of smartphones in the future. You do not even need to have a PC if you have one of these. It looks better to bring one of these rather than lugging around a laptop or netbook. The down side however, is you may need a smooth surface to display the keyboard and sufficient area for it to project. It would be more cool if it could project a holografic screen rather than projecting it on a wall.<br />
<br />
So, would you buy it?<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Here it is! The spidey suit. I have to say it looks way cooler and darker than the previous 3 movies of Spider-man. See how the Spider-Man symbol on his chest seems to be clawed against something sharp. Most probably this scene is after an amazing fight scene, and the picture just shows how tired and lonely he is. He seems to be on a mind of his own, thinking deeply or possibly feeling angry. An evil side of him brewing inside him perhaps? Anyhow, I can't wait to see the new movie. The new Spider-Man looks leaner not buffed, which I think is appropriate. I do not know about you but Spider-Man has to be lean and skinny, he is after all a teenager who was bitten by a spider. So a potrayal of a young adult man who have not gain much muscles mass because of his time mostly taking photographs is issential in this movie. And I think they have excecuted it well.</div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">I am very happy with the suit, although it looks different but it is a fresh look. Hopefully this Spider-Man is more tougher and please no more crying or sad scenes. It was a bit way too much of it for the past 3 movies. I want more deepth and darkness, this is the part where he meets all his greatest villians and nemesis. It is like fighting an opposite of himself. It has always been like that in all great movies. The good guys face the likelihood of turning to the dark side and tries not too. This is a movie of how good triumphs over evil. He is fighting the other side of himself that he has surpressed within him all this while. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

excerpt from Yahoo! News: <br />
<br />
LOS ANGELES (AFP) - – A homeless man who became a YouTube hit for his astonishing baritone radio voice was arrested in Los Angeles after an altercation with his daughter, police and reports said.<br />
Ted Williams, who had struggled with drugs and alcohol, became an overnight celebrity when a video clip of his voice skills filmed while he was on the side of an Ohio highway was posted on the Internet last week by the Columbus Dispatch newspaper.<br />
<br />
He was flooded with job offers and brought to Hollywood -- where he was arrested after officers were called to a disturbance at his hotel Monday night, and taken to a local police station, according to LA Police Department (LAPD).<br />
<br />
The LA Times newspaper quoted sources as saying there had been an altercation between the 53-year-old and his daughter. Both were released after about an hour, and no charges were pressed, said an LAPD spokeswoman.<br />
<br />
Williams was offered a two-year job with the Cleveland Cavaliers NBA club. He visited the home of the LA Lakers on Monday, and was in town for interviews with "Entertainment Tonight" and other media outlets.<br />
Williams, who pleaded guilty to theft charges after being arrested last May, had been living in a tent when he was discovered in the online clip showcasing his deep vocal tone and polished pronunciation.<br />

He has a family and he sure wants to bring the best for his children. I am not sure the intention of FAS for calling him but do not waste his time unnecessarily.<br /><br />If you want to build footballers like his calibre, he needs to be disciplined on the field and also off. We have seen a number of our own local players being in the news for the wrong reasons. Time to beef up the discipline of our footballers so they can be the best that they can be. It's not just about money, it's also about country.<br /><br /><br />Excerpt from Yahoo! News below:<br /><br /><p><em>FAS president Zainudin Nordin will be meeting Fandi later this week.</em></p> <p>In a desperate measure to salvage the remaining dignity of the country’s national soccer team, the <a href="http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search?p=Football+Association+of+Singapore&fr=fp-today&cs=bz" target="_blank">Football Association of Singapore</a> has approached football legend <a href="http://sg.search.yahoo.com/search?p=Fandi+Ahmad&fr=fp-today&cs=bz" target="_blank">Fandi Ahmad</a>.</p> <p>According to <em>The New Paper (TNP)</em>, FAS president Zainudin Nordin confirmed that he is contact with the 48-year-old to talk about national football team matters. But he declined to comment if he has indeed offered Fandi a job.</p> <p>Mr Zainudin who is also the mayor of the Central Singapore District said, “I am in touch with Fandi on a regular basis. My policy has been consistent. I will talk to whoever can contribute to Singapore football and people who are stakeholders.</p> <p>“I have spoken to people like Fandi, Aide Iskandar, Lim Kian Tong (FAS vice-president), and we are looking at the future, creating strategies and looking at new way of doing things.”</p> <p>It was reported that Mr Zainudin will meet with Fandi later this week to discuss the possibility of him rejoining the FAS as a coach.</p> <p>The football legend is also one of seven local coaches with the Asian Football Confederation professional diplomas, the highest coaching qualification in Asia.</p> <p>Well, maybe the time is right to bring Fandi back considering it has been a dark and dismal year for the Lions, who pathetically mustered only one win throughout 2010.</p> <p>Players lacked of discipline and poor performances led to a poor finish in the Asian Cup qualifying and Suzuki Cup campaigns.</p> <p>Matters came to a head last week when Mr Zainudin announced the decision to drop all players in the national team.</p> <p>But with the FAS president rallying behind the national squad’s current coach, Raddy Avramovic, the only possible option for Fandi would be to fill in the vacant assistant coach’s position, a stint which the latter enjoyed success when the Lions won the 2005 Tiger Cup.</p> <p>However, sources who spoke to <em>TNP</em> poured cold water on this idea. One of them said, “Fandi has already been the assistant once, and he’s proved to be successful.</p> <p>“He has all the necessary qualifications to be the head coach and I don’t think the FAS can convince him by offering the role of an assistant.”</p> <p>Yet another source said, “If the FAS can provide Fandi with a sound and detailed plan in which he can be involved in the national team’s development, who knows, he might consider.”</p> <p>Still, those close to the former national team captain said that while enlisting his help would be a good move, their opinions are split about when would be the right time for him to rejoin the FAS.</p> <p>Kadir Yahya, who was Fandi’s former international team-mate said, “People should give up on this idea for now.</p> <p>“Look, Fandi is already preparing to go to Italy with his kids, so he’s definitely not going to e the national team coach, or Raddy’s assistant, any time soon.”</p> <p>But R Sasikumar, who scored the winning goal in the 1998 Tiger Cup final against Vietnam, said, “As Fandi is now Genova International Soccer School’s project manager in Asia, the door is slightly open for him to be involved with the national team.</p> <p>“He will be heading to Italy next week to help his sons find accommodation, schools and academies, but Fandi’s heart is still here with Singapore.”</p> <p>The 35-year-old also cited Fandi’s knack of working with youths, both with the Young Lions and Indonesian club Pelita Jaya, as a quality the FAS could tap on.</p> <p>Sasikumar added that Fandi should be brought in to “lead the Under-21 team, where he is given the free reign to select his players based on merit.” This, he said should be done with the view that the youths will eventually form the senior team’s backbone with Fandi in charge.</p> <p>Perhaps there is a need for the FAS to revise its options and instead of rallying behind the current coaching staff, the time might be right to place Fandi at the helm of the country’s national squad.</p>Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-3144764516928415782010-06-29T23:17:00.000+08:002010-06-29T23:18:10.251+08:00Where have I been again now?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_GioJt8_V-4vSd6-PciTopQJPIWIVi9kHIcyp17MjMYf9FU3MIQhoqYS0NFpJ4D10i_w8dMEHv1-l7tV9a5z2PvroBeUyU9i9pdo9-0GdvG9kKAhMnfWcZdq6HE1IxQ8fqedpcLZmYVI/s1600/DSCN2879.JPG"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_GioJt8_V-4vSd6-PciTopQJPIWIVi9kHIcyp17MjMYf9FU3MIQhoqYS0NFpJ4D10i_w8dMEHv1-l7tV9a5z2PvroBeUyU9i9pdo9-0GdvG9kKAhMnfWcZdq6HE1IxQ8fqedpcLZmYVI/s320/DSCN2879.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5488211348112629122" border="0" /></a><br />YEs where has the fitnessdesigncoach been? Elusive as he appeared and then he disappeared.<br /><br />I been here most of the time. Had a short trip to Bintan for a holiday with my family and it was a great time. It was quiet, beautiful, scenic, ahhh... and it's only an hour's ferry trip away. I want to go there and feel the warm water again. It was a short getaway but a deserving one.<br /><br />Apart from work and life, I wish to share with those who are still reading my blog that I have found a special someone in my life. Yes, FDC is in love. :) He has found a beautiful girl. When the time is appropriate I will show our photos together hehehe...<br /><br />So apart from love, life and work what has been happening the past year? Well my poster design won third place in the 'Safety Starts With Me' Competition. Yeah I was proud that they showcased my work. Spent weekends trying to do it. Needless to say I didn't spend enough time for myself because of that poster. :P But I won third, so at least I know I still got that design touch.<br /><br />WOrk now is still hectic as usual, you goota be quick and smart on how to handle difficult situations and find ways to resolve it. ALthough I really wish with a change in new management soon that there will be much a lesser load and more ppl on board to help out with the tons of work piling each day. I guess time management is essential but a good team is very important to get things done right. Although I wish I had more time to sleep... heheh...<br /><br />I am currently studying also. Doing night classes. 3 times a week and I am nearing my term break. Phew.... It is like running a marathon, so much to do, so little time as I rush to finish off my assignments as much as I can. It is not easy since I been getting a lack of sleep lately. But the colleagues have been really helpful and so far I am doing ok.<br /><br />So am I going to disappear again for another year? Probably not, just that I may not update as often. I do miss blogging, it is where you pen your thoughts into the servers and showcase it to the world to see that you are still living and well. :)<br /><br />So as much as I would like to write I must end my sentences here. But I will be back soon.<br /><br />Something to share, while I was thinking the other day:<br />"Understand your limitations, reevaluate your expectations"Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-6815033080348945942009-10-04T13:19:00.003+08:002009-10-04T13:50:32.918+08:00Months on and what have happened to me?So long since I've updated my blog. Mostly because I been so busy with work. Work, work, work..... Haizzz... Being a working adult, you feel the grunt of pressure from work and the realisation that earning a living is never easy. Everything has gone up. I do not need to go into detail as what has gone expensive.<br /><br />Anyway, my foot is kinda healed. Although, during long walks I still feel a little bit of pain. Morning walks takes some time to get used to for the first hour. Apart from that, I can still continue walking as usual.<br /><br />Fasting has been a challenge. The physical exhaustion you feel at the end of the day really gets to you. And a good sleep sometimes isn't sufficient. Bear in mind that I still have to do preparations for the Hari Raya. I was so over worked one time that I had pains in my chest. I had to see a doctor and he booked me for an appointment with a cardiologist for a better assessment of any underlying condition that I might have. <br /><br />Singlehood is a wonderful feeling. You get a sense of new found freedom. Not that I feel being in a relationship is like being on a leash, but rather, I think more of me than me and her. Still, it is a human craving to be with someone one day. Someone who you can spend time with without boredom. Someone you can joke with, play with, talk with, eat with, etc... To find that right match isn't easy, it is like searching the right puzzle piece to fit yours. But after thinking abt it, I think it is more of how two persons mould a block of clay and make it something special. It doesn't have to be perfect, but when both accomodate each other and give each other support, the result is a sense of satisfaction. You can easily look into each other's eyes and realise how much you want to be with him/her.<br /><br />Over time, as number of your age increases, you get a hint of how mid-life crisis is. You will take a look back at the things you have missed and things that you would have done differently. Have you achieved enough? Is today enough for you? Can you achieve more? You cannot change the past but you can still reshape your future. I think the main problem with me is procrastination. I tend to put things back and that would usually end up with me rushing to get things done. I feel that the main reason is distractions and the downlifting mood aka laziness. So combat this problem I've done a few mental notes which I can do. <br /><br />First is, exercise. Some light exercise will really lift your mood. You will sweat, and after that have a cold bathe. You have this refreshing feeling that anything is possible now. Now GET BACK TO WORK!<br /><br />Second is the distraction bit. If you must, GET OUT OF THE HOUSE! Let's face it. In our house we have so much distractions! TV, internet, games, food, etc... If you have a laptop, bring it out and do your work outside. Find a good spot (this requires you to do some scouting), a place where there is a Hotspot and a power point. If you can, bring a buddy along so he/she can look after your belongings. Because when you are doing your work, you will have the urge to go to pee. Trust me, such places with hotspots really do get cold. Bring a sweater along if you can.<br /><br /><br />So that kinda sums up what happened the past months. Although I do not foresee a break in my work, I hope the work load lessens. I do miss studying, and I hope if I have the finance, I would study. ANyway, enjoy the weekends!Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-7027966958596074862009-07-07T21:35:00.001+08:002009-07-07T21:38:50.877+08:00Day 4: Wrapped like a mummyMy foot looks like a wrapped mummy. The yellow thing that is covering my skin is some kind of paste that is suppose to keep my foot from moving too much.<br /><br />Actually it works. Usually I would wake up with a stiff leg but ever since I used that the past two nights, it's been pretty helpful in my healing process. I can walk a bit without my crutches but it sure still hurts a lot after that. I am still limping. The bruise has not subsided and the swelling hasn't also. But I am kinda upbeat that I can still limp around without my crutches. Although I still have cramps on my shin and calve sometimes. Probably due to lack of movement on my leg.Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-10092281989151703342009-07-06T17:42:00.000+08:002009-07-06T17:42:58.777+08:00Day 3: A trip to the doctor in crutches<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicn6KujezemfPdbpm1NHt6I-OOKQYAZdczYI7DVWGDJ3CKsfT8iX_L2jPaM-ph1P9S4CrAdYPLj3r15kvGL3KU4RRzkJzOUwydR2DDHSMtnbwN1jnOuZG5S7KSKnlRgVsh-74vl4-YAqE/s1600-h/04072009(002).jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicn6KujezemfPdbpm1NHt6I-OOKQYAZdczYI7DVWGDJ3CKsfT8iX_L2jPaM-ph1P9S4CrAdYPLj3r15kvGL3KU4RRzkJzOUwydR2DDHSMtnbwN1jnOuZG5S7KSKnlRgVsh-74vl4-YAqE/s400/04072009(002).jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5355278184801468786" border="0" /></a><br />Today I got an assessment from a doctor. It wasn't good. The swelling hasn't gone down and he told me to rest more. If the swelling and pain still persist, I might even have to go see a 'sports' doctor.<br /><br />He got a nurse to do some kind of 'pressure' bandage on my foot to relieve the swelling.<br /><br />I think it is going to be a long time before I get to see any improvement from my foot. Hard enough already that I have to limp around in my crutches, my arms get really tired moving around. If they had a mutant gene to heal this wound, it would be so cool.Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-79166351954110734372009-07-05T12:22:00.000+08:002009-07-05T12:22:29.419+08:00Day 2: Getting used to my crutches<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjaovCrYDa2W8RE867UslEc66189CHAz9dcriuL0apwLE6UZsoAAKAHBa1RZumLOdFVNFEQzGAJg8nO-XEaSa4z7zDaqxFIBJ5eteWy4K2_3GdX4P3PoKilNh-yKeFzX5o2MMfn3RIm04/s1600-h/04072009(005).jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgjaovCrYDa2W8RE867UslEc66189CHAz9dcriuL0apwLE6UZsoAAKAHBa1RZumLOdFVNFEQzGAJg8nO-XEaSa4z7zDaqxFIBJ5eteWy4K2_3GdX4P3PoKilNh-yKeFzX5o2MMfn3RIm04/s400/04072009(005).jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354826026465983026" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu-LoDjx2Scs2a8y-Zk980Hf7LL6-nCsosGJ5fjOt7M5Z-CrD-ZtDFEI8APbn3ZT1gUks_l_71NhNMMkOwfJ_9b6ufQGMBwdi23Vz8pKw-VlJvizkVUYflBwXqIPJ-Or5VQx3mwc5fYQQ/s1600-h/bruised-foot.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhu-LoDjx2Scs2a8y-Zk980Hf7LL6-nCsosGJ5fjOt7M5Z-CrD-ZtDFEI8APbn3ZT1gUks_l_71NhNMMkOwfJ_9b6ufQGMBwdi23Vz8pKw-VlJvizkVUYflBwXqIPJ-Or5VQx3mwc5fYQQ/s400/bruised-foot.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5354825908694560962" border="0" /></a><br />Waking up this morning is a real pain, I can't even put my right foot down without feeling an intense pain. I took a bath sitting down on a chair, and had to make my own breakfast which took a pretty long time because I had to go in and out of the kitchen to take out the bread, nutella, water..... haizz.. When all was set on the table, I just slumped on the chair, trying to catch my breath.<br /><br />Maybe I am trying to keep up with the speed I usually walk, but I was hungry, and when you are hungry you usually put in that extra effort to get your food.<br /><br />Anyway, I took a look at my foot and it looks pretty bruised and swollen. Trust me, it looks even worse 'live'. The other side of my foot also looks bruised, but I didn't bother to take it because I had trouble taking proper photo of it at that angle.<br /><br />So, looks like it's goona take some time before I can start running again.

He was dribbling the ball actually, and he ran quite fast, so I did my super speedy chase to block him off, but somehow we collided and next thing I knew I was on the ground, clutching my right ankle. Oh the pain was excruciating, it took me a while to stand up and I had to laugh it off to numb the pain off.<br /><br />Anyway, took a trip at A&E, doc said there was no fracture although he said my ligaments might be pulled pretty bad since I couldn't put my foot down properly without cringing in pain. So an appointment is set for me to go to see a doc at polyclinic.<br /><br />Now, I am walking with crutches and it isn't easy. Walking with an extra pair of legs really takes a lot of energy. Looks easy but it ain't, now I know how much difficult it is doing simple actions at home. Heck, I had trouble taking my apple juice from the fridge, not to mention the difficulty of wearing shorts. I think I should just wearing a sarong.Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-69622409248671449472009-06-29T21:47:00.001+08:002009-06-29T21:50:05.125+08:00So I've got 51 years left to live<div style="border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); padding: 10px; background: rgb(255, 255, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-border-radius-topleft: 8px; -moz-border-radius-topright: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomright: 8px; -moz-border-radius-bottomleft: 8px; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-align: center; width: 240px;"><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; font-size: 18px; line-height: 20px;"><strong><a style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; color: rgb(47, 103, 166); -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://www.okcupid.com/the-death-test?describe=dead+at+79&score=79">Dead At 79</a></strong></p><a style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; color: rgb(47, 103, 166); -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://www.okcupid.com/the-death-test?describe=dead+at+79&score=79"><img style="border: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); margin: 10px 0px; padding: 10px; background: rgb(255, 255, 255) none repeat scroll 0% 0%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" src="http://cdn.okcimg.com/graphics/deathtest/heart_attack.gif" alt="" /></a><p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 10px;"><strong><a style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; color: rgb(47, 103, 166); -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://www.okcupid.com/the-death-test?describe=dead+at+79&score=79"> From Heart Attack</a></strong></p><p style="border-top: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); margin: 0px; padding: 6px 0px;"><a style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; color: rgb(248, 50, 101); -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://www.okcupid.com/profile/">View my profile: </a></p><p style="border-top: 1px solid rgb(221, 221, 221); margin: 0px; padding: 6px 0px;"><a style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 0%; color: rgb(248, 50, 101); -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial; text-decoration: underline;" href="http://www.okcupid.com/the-death-test">Find out when and why you'll die, take The Death Test!</a></p></div><br /><br />So this is it.

The King of Pop, who was scheduled to do his last performance this coming July, dies from cardiac arrest. He was pronounced dead at 2.26pm, Thursday, Los Angeles.<br /><br />When I heard the news, I was out participating a bowling competition, and the bowling alley played MJ songs all night. No doubt he was a great entertainer. His moves will always be a classic and will be copied by many. His songs were great and will be remixed, reedited, etc by other music artist.<br /><br />The most memorable music video of him to me was from the song 'Beat It'. I remember watching that for the first time, and I so loved the choreography and the bad boy image in the video. It was so cool and I tried copying his moves when I watched it then. He still had his original skin color tone then, the wavy curly like hair and he was really good looking. And the trademark red jacket he wore, I don't think you can find much of those kind of jackets nowadays.<br /><br />Whatever those anti-MJs may say. I say Beat It! He is no doubt the King of Pop. He grew up a different life than ours and he did try his best to help others. I do not think he is a child molester, and I seriously think it is just some people using an opportunity to take advantage of him.<br /><br />It Doesn't Matter Who's Wrong Or Right<br />Just Beat It, Beat It<br />Just Beat It, Beat It<br />Just Beat It, Beat It<br />Just Beat It, Beat It<br /><br /><br /><br />Ebony Magazine:<br /><br />"<span>25th anniversary of Thriller album, has revealed his days of dancing are behind him - because he doesn't want to kill himself on stage like his hero, soul singer James Brown, who died On December 25th 2006 from congestive heart failure. When asked if he thinks he'll grow old in the music industry, Michael, 49, explained: "Not the way James Brown did or Jackie Wilson did. "They just kept going, running, killing themselves. "I wish he (James Brown) could have slowed down and relaxed and enjoyed his hard work.<br /><br />Pencilled in for release in 2008, Jackson unveiled the plans for the album during a rare interview with Ebony Magazine. Despite admitting that he was working on new material, Jackson said that he has no plans to extend his career into old age, like other artists. "Not the way James Brown or Jackie Wilson did, where they just killed themselves," Jackson admitted. "I wish James Brown could have slowed down and been more relaxed and enjoyed his hard work."<br /><br />Every neighbourhood has the guy who you don't see, so you gossip about him," Jackson told Ebony magazine. Jackson, 49, also revealed he doesn't plan to keep performing for the rest of his life. "Not the way James Brown or Jackie Wilson did, where they just killed themselves. I wish James Brown could have slowed down and been more relaxed and enjoyed his hard work."</span>Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-46565379857075085072009-06-21T16:46:00.002+08:002009-06-21T16:49:17.870+08:00How many women are there in this picture?<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKlIgt5-1bMJwI70LkEhen5JDynzj_8rD3AbOarBg7XUX34yXzpILn1vVCGeSFlnBq5a8h5CiD88ahkaS2VIl99x61c-UKr-ypYku0ihCmIhaCAXZmYAN83sR0Tpu_U62y2Hs2-dR5EZo/s1600-h/fn.CL7UX.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKlIgt5-1bMJwI70LkEhen5JDynzj_8rD3AbOarBg7XUX34yXzpILn1vVCGeSFlnBq5a8h5CiD88ahkaS2VIl99x61c-UKr-ypYku0ihCmIhaCAXZmYAN83sR0Tpu_U62y2Hs2-dR5EZo/s400/fn.CL7UX.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5349699942175636370" border="0" /></a>Do you see the women?

They are fun and gives you that few mins of adrenaline rush. It makes any man squeal like a girl and mouth wider than when you ate a Big Mac. Now imagine doing all that while you are thinking about answering a few questions.<br /><br />Do not ever think that you can try doing it. The build up before the drop can already cloud your thinking. I just wished they had a heart rate monitor when they were asking him those questions. It would have been more fun to see how his body reacts to such pressure.Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-88280563892553947922009-05-31T13:44:00.001+08:002009-05-31T13:48:17.797+08:00Giving up<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7x8_Ca2aCLuKv5EH87dIFIdbD_vtseSd3d7o4_ulSYhs7DMOsPU4CD9_8fqIrk31mXoVA2DiLH8FjRL5VU-lihwf1TVzMrRESazsC64_RWqj73vy_KBI5HYXIHJR4BCdwFbMdKDjxx78/s1600-h/winner.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 268px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7x8_Ca2aCLuKv5EH87dIFIdbD_vtseSd3d7o4_ulSYhs7DMOsPU4CD9_8fqIrk31mXoVA2DiLH8FjRL5VU-lihwf1TVzMrRESazsC64_RWqj73vy_KBI5HYXIHJR4BCdwFbMdKDjxx78/s400/winner.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5341859434759517906" border="0" /></a><br />Every task at hand given to you, is a challenge or test. And when you are handed that task, the first outlook at it seems to be impossible. Especially when you are loaded with too much burden on your shoulders.<br /><br />For example, you are winded, out of breath, the sweat drips profusely down your face, you are breathing heavily and your legs feels heavy. In the distant you hear your physical trainer screaming, "You see that hill, let's see what is up there!" And in your head you go "Whaaattt?..... You have got to be kidding me" and the next thing you know, he just past by you and turns to you, jogging backwards, shouting "Come on. There's a nice view up there".<br /><br />What do you do next?<br />1. Hell no way! I like the view here just fine<br />2. Let me sit down first.<br />3. Errrr... okayyyy<br />4. Ok, I'm coming<br />5. Bring it!<br /><br />You see how many words can sum up an excuse and you just need just two words or even one word to get your body and mind moving.<br /><br />The human mind can generate millions of excuses for not doing one thing but it just takes a few words to push one to do it. Amazing isn't it. Just look at Nike. The slogan is a 3 letter word "Just Do It". Simple words and when you tell yourself that, you move like a machine. Now imagine your boss saying that to you 'JuST DO IT!". How much of those words resonates through your body and you hasten yourself to get the job done.<br /><br />Sometimes people need a push to get them up and running. For it is true, if you don't do it, it will never get done.<br /><br />US President Barack Obama, during his presidential election race, stood by the words "Change" but he emphasised on the words "WE can change!". If you want your country to change, you have to make the change yourself. Most people do not realise the potential they have and are hesitant to take that challenge.<br /><br />Personally, many at times, when I run, in between runs I feel like giving up. I feel like stopping. I feel like I can always do better another day. But what if you can't stop, or there won't be another day. What if that day itself IS your last day you will ever enjoy running.... would you stop?<br /><br />We Singaporeans are a pampered lot. Admit it. We have a running public transport system, we have food available everywhere, water running in our homes, electricity to turn on our tv, PC, iron, etc.. We have almost everything. All the amenities you need are within reach. And yet, people give a lot of excuses for not being able to get things done. Yes I agree time is a luxury we do not have, then that is where we have to learn time management. Thinking ways to resolve a problem is the first step of NOT giving up.<br /><br />It all comes to YOU. YOU have to make that change. YOU have to change your mindset. YOU can do it!<br /><br />"G<span>od does not change the condition of the people until they change themselves.</span>"<br />Ar-rad: Chp 13, verse 11<br /><br /><object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/d6wRkzCW5qI&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/d6wRkzCW5qI&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-37672529688353773032009-05-20T21:47:00.000+08:002009-05-20T21:47:41.734+08:00Anxiety problems<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBZMKBFRc2Q5Ju4RpYrEqtqWpqqJRNbzvggaQW-aUKoN_axuc3z-SFIRk7YQQcwZ21hb4bMIv47-zNekWRU_x84YcLIAWzugUzNq8kzaC3oMK3oH7gbecg2jA1hq9O4p5YwopMKEPOfK0/s1600-h/520023_frustrated.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 225px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBZMKBFRc2Q5Ju4RpYrEqtqWpqqJRNbzvggaQW-aUKoN_axuc3z-SFIRk7YQQcwZ21hb4bMIv47-zNekWRU_x84YcLIAWzugUzNq8kzaC3oMK3oH7gbecg2jA1hq9O4p5YwopMKEPOfK0/s400/520023_frustrated.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5337900453704932082" border="0" /></a>Mental problems is a serious issue, especially among Singaporeans. I used to have a care free life, like most kids when I was young, I was out playing football, flying kites, exploring, have small little adventures with my friends from school.<br /><br />But when you grow you, and your mind starts to get complicated, that's when it gets too complicated. I suffered anxiety attacks before without knowing what it was. It happened on my first day in primary school, it happened during my National Service, it happened too during my working life. What really pisses me the most is that there is no real cure for it. It is unlike a headache where you can just pop in an aspirin or panadol to make it go away. You have to talk to someone about this before you can calm yourself down. And it can take days before you put your mind back in perspective. Sometimes you can laugh yourself silly during the anxiety or even after it is gone. I guess maybe it is some kind of reverse psychology the minds try to play to not allow yourself to break down.<br /><br />The reason why I am writing this is because I recently had that anxiety feeling again. It wasn't a good feeling at all. I wasn't sleeping well, I felt tired most of the time, and my interest in the finer things in life just doesn't seem to interest me at all. Don't get me wrong, I still do love my family, my love :), my friends, I just am not interested in other things that used to rev me up any day. Like running, weight training, doing pull-ups on my horizontal bar, watching a good movie, surfing the WWW. It took me a while to .... how do I say it... 'acclimatize' my mind to the new responsibilities I was laid down with.<br /><br />During those days of anxiety, I was trembling inside. I looked fine on the outside but inside was so full of worry. I never talked to God so many times in a day, asking him to help me get through this phase. I admit it was difficult. And for many moments, I do not think anyone understand.<br /><br />It was only today that I read up a column in Today's newspaper. It touched on the topic of anxiety by Dr Bill Maier. It talked about stress getting out of hand. Apparently, <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">extreme anxiety is more prominent that people think. And very often, those who have gone through it do not know what to do or where to turn to. Some stress is irrational and can become so severe that it immobilizes a person for weeks at a time. That is when you need professional help.</span><br /><br />Yes I agree sometimes stress can work with you instead of against you. For example, it can make you stronger or work harder but one has to know the limit where it can get out of hand. Dr Bill Maier advises those who have gone through long periods of depression/laziness to seek help, like a doctor.<br /><br />My advise to you if you suffering to anxiety is to talk to someone about it. Please talk to someone who can help, not just any other friend. Some people can put you down even further, that just aggravates the whole problem. You need to talk to the proper people. And if need to, seek counselling or go see a doctor about it.<br /><br />Here are a few links to help those with anxiety problems:<br /><a href="http://www.goodtherapy.org/Singapore-Therapy.htm">http://www.goodtherapy.org/Singapore-Therapy.htm</a><br /><br /><a href="http://singapore.angloinfo.com/af/578/singapore-counselling-therapy-and-psychology.html">http://singapore.angloinfo.com/af/578/singapore-counselling-therapy-and-psychology.html</a>Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-70321120456103050732009-03-14T19:04:00.000+08:002009-03-14T19:04:54.821+08:00Mardan Mamat wins Mercedes-Benz MastersGo Mamat!

Our dear Merlion was struck by lightning. Some say it's an omen, well I say Singapore gets a lot of lightning strikes every year so it is no surprise something like this happens.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">So how many Merlions do we have?</span><br /><br />Well, we have original one (that got struck by lightning). There is also the 'baby' merlion (which I wasn't there to witness it's 'birth') situated just behind the original. Then there is the big Merlion at Sentosa which can shot lasers out of it's eyes. Then there is the other two which is not so often mentioned, one at Mount Faber and the other at the Tourism Court. So that makes it 5 Merlions (recognized by the Singapore Tourism Board).<br /><br />I think they will start installing a lighting rod on or near the damaged Merlion (although I do not remember if they did installed one before..) . I wonder how much it's going to cost to repair and install the new lightning rod.<br /><br />Maybe after this incident, safety checks will be done on the other Merlions too?<br /><br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ao82w-_GEC0&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ao82w-_GEC0&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br /><a href="http://www.channelnewsasia.com/stories/singaporelocalnews/view/412182/1/.html">Click here to read about the Merlion getting struck by lightning.</a>Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3172825842232482317.post-22019123830734038762009-03-01T19:13:00.000+08:002009-03-01T19:13:13.059+08:00Why doesn't Singapore have this kind of car?<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/3oBg8C6PMYo&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/3oBg8C6PMYo&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br /><br />I love this car. Seriously I love it. It has everything you need when you go to the beach. Yes it looks like one of those car toys you buy at Toys R Us, but it's like a swiss army knife for your beach outing, it has a picnic table, radio, beach chair, underseat storage, ice chest, tool kit, flashlight, portable water hose, portable gas stove, etc! And when you fold the seats, your car becomes an indoor bed!<br /><br />If you are those who like to go the beach during weekends or on those long holiday weekends, this is the car for you. Why I think it is suitable for Singapore? Because Singapore has a lot of beaches, it is an island! Crappy as this car looks, imagine the amount of space you save when you go to the beach? You won't have to cramp all those beach items in your car because your car has already have it!Fitness | Design Jurulatihhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06940311375864931439noreply@blogger.com0
