While almost the whole world is swooning over the return of Superman to the big screen (no doubt also checking out the bulge on the red undies), another movie based on the long running HongKong comic "龙虎们“ (Long Hu Men) is quietly making its way onto the silverscreen. Here's a sneak peek at the action movie starring Donnie Yen, Nicholas Tse and Shawn Yu. Not so Random Picture of the Day  The swoonable Donnie Yen.

it's a miracle that i have yet to choke while dining with james, given the wisecracks he disses out all the time. the dinner at 85 Fengshan Market last night was a perfect example, yc and zs were engaged in a lengthy and somewhat spirited discussion on whether equipment plays a part on producing a good photo when james quipped:
"器材不重要，模特儿美就可以了。" which loosely translates to: "The equipment is secondary, what matters most is the appearance of the model." Random Picture of the Day  Mng sales circa 2005. Which brings me to this question, how many fucking Mng sales are there in a calendar year?

 It's evident that army has zapped away majority of my thought processing power which kind of explains the lack of updates on this site. However i felt compelled to talk about how poor Micky Owen tore his cruciate ligament and how bloody unlucky it is for Newcastle yet again. It's like deja vu all over again, with Shearer breaking his ankle during the 1997-98 (correct me if i'm wrong down here, army..me can't think argh..) season and we went on struggling under the dour Kenny Dalglish.
Random Army brainwashing slogan of the day If not you, then who? If not now, then when?

It's "great" to be back in the army and read such inspiring slogans like:- "If you know how to SHIT, you should know how to FLUSH." Ps: Someone actually visited my site by searching for " Yingwai Tham" on yahoo. Eerie.

In what's likely to be the most disturbing piece of news since the original Bovril was banned in Singapore, the profilic and fearsome English hitman Peter Crouch has decided to put a stop to his immensely popular "Robocrouch" celebration.... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Crouch halts robotic celebrations
Peter Crouch says his robotic dancing career is over - and will only be revived if England win the World Cup. Liverpool striker Crouch has become a cult figure among England fans because of his eccentric goal celebration, but now he feels it is time to get serious. He explained: "It's not about robotic dancing. It is about scoring goals and winning matches. It's an important time for everyone now. "It's serious business, though we might all do it if we win the World Cup."
He added: "If you can enjoy yourself, all well and good, but the first thing we must concentrate on winning football matches. "The lads are keen for me to keep it going, but I'm not sure about that. I hope to get as many goals as I can, but I'm not sure about that celebration." Crouch is certain Michael Owen, his strike partner in Saturday's 1-0 win against Paraguay, will soon be indulging in goal celebrations of his own, despite being substituted early in the second half. He said: "Over the years Michael has been playing, he has always scored goals and I believe he will always score goals. "He is a goalscorer and a finisher and when he is given chances he will score. "Michael is one of our main threats, so there is no problem with him."
Meanwhile, Crouch admits he may have to adapt his game to avoid falling foul of World Cup referees. He was booked against Paraguay after being penalised several times by referee Marco Rodriguez for aerial challenges. Crouch said: "It was very frustrating. I was getting pulled up for things that wouldn't be a foul in the Premiership. "It was a worry to pick up a booking, but I'm not going to change my game, although I may have to adapt it a bit." He added: "I felt the referee was overly-fussy at times, but I'm not going to blame referees. This is international football and maybe I have to adapt my game a touch." The Liverpool star, meanwhile, will be happy to welcome Wayne Rooney back into the England side, even though it could put his place under threat. Rooney could see some action in England's next group game against Trinidad and Tobago in Nuremberg on Thursday. He said: "It's important we have him back. The fact that the manager named him in the squad showed he was always confident he would be fit, and in training he is looking fit. "He's a top player and we need everyone fit if we are going to do well in the World Cup." Story from BBC SPORT:

Let's us watch Peter Crouchy doing his thing for one last time........

Tabby cat terror for black bear
A black bear got more than it bargained for after straying into a family garden in the US state of New Jersey. The unwelcome intruder was forced up a tree - twice - by the family pet, a tabby cat called Jack. The terrified bear was only able to make its escape when owner Donna Dickey called the hissing cat into the house. Ms Dickey said Jack liked to keep a close watch on his territory and often chased away small animals, but one of this size was a first. "We used to joke, 'Jack's on duty', never knowing he'd go after a bear," Donna Dickey told local newspaper The Star-Ledger. "He doesn't want anybody in his yard," she added. The bear was first spotted in the tree by neighbours who thought the 15lb (7kg) cat was just looking up at it. They then realised the bear was afraid of the cat. After some 15 minutes, the bear descended, but was chased up another tree, before finally making its escape when Jack was called indoors. Bear sightings are not unusual in the area of West Milford in New Jersey, which experts say is one of the state's most bear-populated areas. (Source: BBC Website)

Today is the proudest moment of my young life ( no, i didn't bed Lin Chiling). My friend just informed me that his company, Great Eastern Life, has placed this website on their list of blocked websites. With that piece of good news, i have decided to reward myself with a big juicy banana.
 Random Quote of the Day "I don't see the point of going to KBox* with such a big group of people. It's just like everyone paying the same price to screw the same hooker." Mr. He shall not be named, on why it's not cost effective to sing at KBox with a large group of friends. * KBox is a karaoke chain that charges a flat fee per person instead a standard room charge. This means there'll be no savings and less mic time if there is a large group of karaoke singers.

In Europe... Prayer vigil targets Devil's Day Dutch evangelical Christians are to hold a round-the-clock prayer vigil to ward off the forces of evil on Tuesday - the so-called Devil's Day. They believe that the sixth day of the sixth month of 2006 has great significance for evil-doers and Satanists who revere the number 666. In a bid to counteract the forces of evil, more than 2,000 Dutch Christians will hold "a violent day of worship". They will be joined by Christians in 23 other countries, organisers say. The reference to 666 is taken from the Biblical book of Revelation, which talks about the events leading to the end of the world. Revelation 13:18 states: "If anyone has insight, let him calculate the number of the beast, for it is man's number. His number is 666." Omen launch Behind the initiative is a Dutch evangelical organisation called Ambassadors Ministries.
Mathijs Piet, one of the organisers, told the BBC news website that the prayer marathon was to officially start at 1800 on Monday with a prayer rally in Jerusalem. "666 is the number of the Devil and we know that on this date, Satanists will try and do many things, so we Christians try and do the opposite," Mr Piet said. "We know the Devil hates it when we worship God." Organisers expect at least 2,000 Dutch evangelicals to take part in the mass prayer vigil across the Netherlands. They are not the only ones to note the significance of the date. Film company 20th Century Fox has chosen the same date to launch its remake of the 1976 horror classic The Omen, in which a man comes to realise his son is the Antichrist. The fear of the number 666 is known as hexakosioihexekontahexaphobia. http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/pr/fr/-/2/hi/europe/5049516.stm Published: 2006/06/05 17:38:20 GMT © BBC MMVI ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- While half the globe away.... The 6th of June 2006 marks triple 6 on the calendar, and some people see it as an auspicious date. So the Registry of Marriages saw a record number of marriages on this date. The 310 couples who solemnised their marriages were the highest since Valentine's Day in 1995. Coincidentally, the figure is six times more than the average number of 50 couples a day. The Chinese say the number "66” represents a smooth way ahead as well as luck. Many took advantage of this auspicious date, but others had personal reasons for choosing 6th June, ‘06 to solemnise their wedding. "To the Chinese…the number 060606 means lots of success…" said a couple. "The 6th of June has always been a special day for us. I asked her to be my girlfriend on the 6th, I graduated on the 6th, so this 6th has a very special meaning for us," said a man. "Nothing special, just easy to remember the date…." said a second couple. In Western lore, the numbers "666" have a completely different meaning, but people in Singapore are not fazed by this. Groom Alex Ang said: "Personally I am a Christian and I know that 666 is a very bad number. But I don't think it affects us in any way. To us, it is just a date. And it comes every 1,000 years, so I feel that it is special, and we won't get a chance for another date like this." It also appears to be a good date for babies to be born. Hospitals like KK Women's and Children's Hospital reported an increase, while Mount Alvernia reported 70 percent more births. But they would not disclose if these were due to natural deliveries or C-sections. - CNA/ir ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My take on it? As long as 0606 or 6606 comes out top in this week's lottery, hell may freeze over for all i care.

Apart from the glamourous aspects of Singapore showcased by the nation's PR mechanism, there are other aspects that are unique about the island state which the local tourism authority may or may not want the tourists to know about. Hence i have decided to compile a list of peculiarities about the island state, with the ban on chewing gums kick starting the inaugural entry. Chew your own gums The unsightly residual left behind from improper disposed gums had long been a bane for the nation which prides itself for its cleaniness. According to wikipedia, the sticking of chewing gums train sensors of the US$5 billion Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system, resulted in costly downtime. In January 1992, then Prime Minister Goh Chok Tong decided on an outright ban on distribution of chewing gums. At that time, the ban brought about international scrutiny on the nation. It came at a time when Singapore was lambasted for the caning of American teenager, Michael Fay, for vandalisim of public properties. Together with its other peculiar (from the perspective of Western democractic nations) laws, Singapore earned it's now infamous nickname of "nanny state". Singapore's leaders maintained that as a sovereign state, it has the rights to formulate any policies that is befitting of its unique political and cultural values. In response to whether such draconian laws would stifle the creativity of Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew had this to say : "If you can't think because you can't chew, try a banana." The chewing gum ban is also a favourite joke for the Western media, in particular that of the United States. The ban of chewing is always among the list of things that the Americans associate with Singapore. In fact, National University of Singapore (NUS) included it in an (corny) advertisment aimed at attracting potential Masters students from United States. "And i heard that they don't sell chewing gum there...."
