When asked about how to defeat R. Federer in the US Open, some famous ppl have these to say and more:WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO, heavyweight boxing champion and a friend of Federer's: ...check in the hotel next room to Roger and make all the possible noise in the room that he couldn't sleep. Don't let him get any sleep, and steal his luggage and his rackets so that he couldn't play. You can kiss his girlfriend, and maybe he'd get jealous, you know, he'd get upset and whatever.JELENA JANKOVIC, third-ranked player on the WTA Tour: Oh, gosh, I don't know how I could beat him. I guess I would have to tie his legs together so he couldn't move. If that didn't work, I would wear a short skirt, and hopefully that would distract him.DIEGO AYALA, professional coach who, as a player in 1996, defeated Federer at the Coffee Bowl juniors tournament in Costa Rica: Create a roadblock so he cannot get to the tournament. I'm thinking maybe blocking both exits of the Midtown Tunnel while he is in it.RICHARD WILLIAMS, father and coach of Venus and Serena Williams: There's only three ways to beat Roger Federer. You first pay him enough money not to show up — that's the first thing you do. If he turns that down, then you try your best to get a baseball bat and break his leg because he runs so fast. Now, if he gets away from you, then the next one is, honestly, is just to sit like I do and watch him play, then you can beat anyone just sitting in the stands because you never miss a shot. Those are the only three ways I know you can beat Roger Federer. From nytimes.com
Yes sir, no sir...
Having been out of mindef's attention for the past 7 years, i thot i had become a forgotten man...But disaster strikes when you least expect...anyway, in the short span of 3 months, I have been served no less than 4 saf-100s, ie. call-up notices.

Obese survive heart attacks better
While being fat increases your chances of a heart attack, some studies suggest a puzzling paradox: Obese people seem to have a better chance of surviving one.....A 2005 study published in the American Journal of Medicine by scientists at Duke University examined nearly 16,000 people in 37 countries. The authors found that one year after a heart attack, the death rate for normal-weight patients was 4.3 percent. For obese patients, it was just 2.2 percent. Several other studies have confirmed those findings, including a paper last month in the European Heart Journal. German and Swiss doctors tracked more than 1,600 patients for three years after their heart attacks, and concluded that only 3.6 percent of fat patients had died, against nearly 10 percent of normal-weight patients.hehe... finally something 'good' about being obese...However, experts warn, the results should not be used as an excuse for the overweight to indulge. "We really don't want people to think that they should put on a bit of weight to have a better chance with their bypass surgery," "These results do not mean it's OK to be fat. Being fat is still dangerous to your health for lots of other reasons," darn. article here.

paikia elephants
in malaysia, ppl scared of robbers waylaying their cars and rob their belongings.in india, ppl scared of an elephant waylaying their cars and rob their food.so cute ;p"The tusker then inserts its trunk inside the vehicle and sniffs for food," local resident Prabodh Mohanty, who has come across the elephant twice, was quoted as saying. "If you are carrying vegetables and banana inside your vehicle, then it will gulp them and allow you to go." If a commuter does not wind down his window or resists opening the vehicle door, the elephant stands in front of the car until the driver allows him to carry out his routine inspection.full article here.
funny...
The association, which represents the big Hollywood studios, recently brought to Malaysia two dogs trained to sniff out DVDs -- with stunning results. The two Labradors, Lucky and Flo, have sniffed out more than a million DVDs and broken a fake DVD ring. They have been so successful that authorities believe Malaysian pirates have put a bounty on the dogs' heads. full article here.
FA Cup
First of all, congratulations to Chelsea, who deservingly won the FA cup over the weekend.The purpose of writing this blog is that I am sick and tired of people saying that Ryan Giggs goal should have stood as the ball crossed the line, or that he was fouled my Essien as believed by the likes of A.Ferguson.Have a look at the video again.1. Did the ball cross the line??Ryan Giggs said it did. Even Cech himself admitted it did. But did it really??From the video, it is clear that at its furthest point, the base of the ball was maybe 1 or 2 cm away from the line, if not marginally touching it. Anyone who studied elementary mathematics or physics can tell you that the ball is spherical, and so, if the base of the ball is so close to the line, the whole ball must have not crossed the line. FIFA rules dictate that for a goal to stand, the whole ball must cross the line. Look at the video again if you will, and have the liberty to pause at the precise moment and judge for yourself again. Based on the base of the ball, had the WHOLE ball crossed the line?Of course I am not stating the obvious that Ryan Giggs actually pushed Cech over the line, which was obviously a foul.2. Was Ryan Giggs fouled by Essien??Ferguson and many others claimed he was. But was he??Look at the video again in slo-mo. Essien's tackle came in almost at the same time when Ryan Giggs dived for the ball. Ok maybe a little earlier. But even in slo-mo, it's hard to make out whether there's contact before Ryan Giggs stretched for the ball, or whether he fell due to contact by Essien. Then who would know best the answer? Giggs. In his own words, "I felt I was getting to the ball quite comfortably and felt someone touch my leg. But I was claiming for the goal not the penalty." He himself conceded that it was not a penalty.he was going for the ball comfortably, and felt someone touch his leg. What it means, do draw your own conclusions.And then Ferguson said something which was more absurd. "...the goalkeeper's spilled the ball behind the line." Now, "spill" according to dictionary.com, is v. tr. 1. To cause or allow (a substance) to run or fall out of a container.2. To scatter (objects) from containment: spilled the armload of books on the desk.3. To shed (blood).How this can classify as a spill is beyond me. Obviously these are words from a sore loser.Man U on top or great tactics by Chelsea??Of course, there are many amateurs who feel that man u should win as they seemed to be the better team on the field that day. Were they? Read the verdicts here. Chris Waddle was spot on."United only know one way to play and when they play slow, as they did in Milan and in this final, they don't win." During the dreary 1st half, I like everyone else was feeling super bored. But it doesn't take an intelligent person to feel that Chelsea was slowing the game down. In some cases they can attack, but they chose to slow it down. Tactics? Of course. Now read the full article on the Mourinho's tactics here.In his own words, fans out there, "whether [you] want to enjoy the game or enjoy after the game?" My answer too is after.And I'm still enjoying every minute of it. :)

New addition to the family...
Ever since I bought my Nintendo DS, it has been lying patiently in wait that one day, it will be showed some attention by moi.The wait is over.Welcome to the family... of PSP, PS2, PC, and all the P's and that stands for games. I was kind of reluctant to play NDS, as the games are pretty steep. Although I have heard about NDS game ROMs for some time now, I haven't actually explored the possibilities of playing homebrew on the NDS. I mean, I already have my trusty PSP which more than satisfies my gaming needs on the go, why vex myself by creating more competition? That all changed when Tyrone, my colleague at work, introduced me to the NDS flashcards. With these nifty cards, homebrews, MP3, movies, web browing, ebook, etc. are all possible. So i got one for myself, and errr.... borrowed some games from people whom I may or may not know over the web ;p... and there! (Final Fantasy III, baby!) That being said, the conversion from PSP to DS isn't really easy. The first impression is that the graphics on DS really sucks as compared to that of PSP. 2nd, I find it weird to use the pointer to play games. Eg. in Spiderman 3, I have to use the darn touch screen to shoot webs, else I can't play it. I know I know, that's the point of having the DS..... but still I find it hard to adapt straight away. So unless I find a game really hard to put down, for now I am sticking with my PSP. Any good games on DS to recommend?
finally... a good result...
2 nites of disappointments... (newcastle defeat on monday nite, chelsea on tuesday)... finally it's 3rd time lucky. AC Milan for Champions League!
Comfort Women - the Sequel
Japan's abhorrent practice of enslaving women to provide sex for its troops in World War II has a little-known sequel: After its surrender -- with tacit approval by U.S. occupation authorities -- Japan set up a similar "comfort women" system for American GIs. It's sort of like a case of "I did it, but you did it too!!", but well... still an interesting read nonetheless. Though they were free to do so, no Japanese women sought compensation. "Not one Japanese woman has come forward to seek compensation or an apology," he said. "Unless they feel they can say they were completely forced against their will, they feel they cannot come forward." well.... they did state that they were highly paid in the article... compare that to the plight of the original comfort women... (not that i know of course...) read full article here.

Fwd: Darwin Awards Newsletter -- March 2007
Just got the newsletter from Darwin today... Did the below really happen in Singapore? What the heck is Hua Business School anyway?? -----DARWIN AWARD: Rock OutConfirmed by DarwinNovember 2006, Singapore | Picture a college dorm room.Textbooks, dirty laundry, sexy posters, food wrappers, andin the middle of it all, a 16-year-old male rocking out to loud music. A typical student, a typical day.But this particular student, bouncing on his bed as he rockedout on his air guitar, was about to "take things too far,"according to the coroner's report. Li Xiao Meng, a student at Singapore's Hua Business School, bounced up and down onhis bed with such enthusiasm that he rocked himself right outof the third-floor window.Normally the windows are locked, but students reportedly force the locks so they can sneak a cigarette. Perhapsalluding to Ted Nugent's rock song, the court ruled ita case of "Death By Misadventure."Reader Comments:"Did he fall, or did he dive into an imaginary mosh pit?" "Dude! Where's my mosh pit?""Oingo Boingo"References: http://DarwinAwards.com/darwin/darwin2006-09.html
Stingy!
I have a colleague who just had a baby a month ago. As per tradition, we chipped in some money to buy a present for the newborn. This time the person collected at least $5 per person (usual practice was $2, or unstated). Today he gave out cake vouchers since the daughter is 1-month old now. As per tradition. Supposed to give back blessings in return for blessings received. However this Mr. S (S for stingy), only chose to give to those who contributed $10 and above. Warrao! Heard from my fren the cake costs ard $7 a piece. Meaning he earns $3 for every $10 received and $5 for every $5 received!! I'm not fond of cakes, so that's not the main issue. Just sad that ppl are so unkind, especially towards ppl who are kind towards them. Anyways... That's that. Just in a bitchy mood due to my cold. ;p

JAL is CRAP
went to the JAL site... NO internet check-in... CRAP. then went to the Japanese version of the same website... surprise surprise... there IS internet check-in.. seems that JAL, like many other Japanese services, only offer some of their services to their own Japanese speaking people. Biased? well, wot can we gaijins do? (even the word 'gaijin' is derogatory) Heng I know Japanese. Clicked on the icon and was brought to a log in screen. No problem. I just completed my flyers registration and obtained my log-in info. I logged in, and was brought to an error screen. It read: Service available only to people registered in Japan. ie. people with Japanese address, ie. Japanese only (and those peeps staying in Japan perm). CRAP x infinity!!!! I can't imagine how an international company will do well internationally if they only provide simple services exclusively only to their own people! C'mon, even a relatively budget airline like Northwest has internet check in available for all! JAL is ... (see title)!!!!!!!!

Yesterday was the first time that I actually cried, no, teared involuntarily while I was peeling onions. Never understood why shows or books always says that onion will induce tears, well, until yesterday. Wah... the eyes really super hot man!!
The Scarlet Tide
Well I recall his parting wordsMust I accept his fateOr take myself far from this placeI thought I heard a black bell tollA little bird did singMan has no choiceWhen he wants every thingWe'll rise above the scarlet tide That trickles down through the mountainAnd separates the widow from the brideMan goes beyond his own decisionGets caught up in the mechanismOf swindlers who act like kingsAnd brokers who break everything The dark of night was swiftly fadingClose to the dawn of dayWhy would I want him just to lose him againWe'll rise above the scarlet tideThat trickles down through the mountainAnd separates the widow from the bride
Oboe...
I finally bought my oboe, PS3 sold or not.Bought a relatively cheap one (but still expensive for me!) over the internet... 2nd hand of course.Saw from a forum that this lady wanted to sell her instrument.Although it's pretty scary dealing over the internet, by faith I proceeded with the deal, and was happy that the instrument came last Sunday.Throughout the couple of weeks, I have been corresponding with this lady. Not really making small talk, but just talking about the oboe, band, love of music, and things in general.I wouldn't say that we had became friends (because we hadn't), but there's still this certain amount of trust you have to give to someone especially when you have to transfer 1350 SGD to her without the instrument in sight.I was supposed to mail her once I received the instrument, but it slipped my mind on Sunday, probably due to the excitement of receiving the parcel. Her mail came on Monday, which was yesterday, asking if I had received it already. I promptly replied saying I did, and conveyed my thanks.She replied again, saying that she was relieved that the instrument has been delivered safely. And of course, she said her thanks.Final thanks.I replied her today, saying that I should be the one thanking her for letting me have the instrument at such a good price (debatable, but..). Immediately, I got a reply from yahoo, saying that the email is not in use.I was pretty stunned.Ok, it was evident that the email account was created for this sale only. She had followed through the deal, and closed the yahoo mail account once she received confirmation of receipt of the instrument.But still I feel perturbed.Not that I know her at all, I don't - except for her name, her bank account, which prefecture she is at, her current band life - and not that I enjoyed corresponding with her (just business talk most times). But somehow, I still feel a kind of relationship through the oboe that I got. Weird, but you get what I am saying?This instrument was being used by her for the past 3 years. If I were her, I would have cared very much for the oboe, and it would like be an extension of me.... so if I were to sell it to someone else, I would firstly feel sad to see the instrument go, and secondly, I would want to know how it is being treated by the new owner. Whether the owner is pleased with it. Whether the oboe is being mistreated. etc. And for me now, I feel obliged to tell the previous owner how I feel about the instrument. updates on its well being, etc.So in a way, somehow I feel connected to the previous owner through the instrument.But with the cancellation of the mail account, the connection was severed for good.It's also not that I want to carry on corresponding with her. But I do want to tell her, say for eg if I play the oboe in a concert next time, I want to tell her that the oboe was great! stuff like that.I felt pretty lost.I still feel lost and stunned. Silly I know...That's why I wrote this post.Not sure if any of you understand how I am feeling. But for those who do, thank you for sharing my feelings....And to a certain Hagiwara Mitsuki san, since my last mail did not get to you,Thank you once again for the oboe. I will take care of it from now on....
