Blackout

I came home from work today and, whoa, BLACKOUT! No electricity! This hasn't happened for awhile, but it took me by surprise. It's a good thing my wife had dinner ready earlier in the evening when it was still bright. Still, we had only 2 candles left, and we actually bought the box 8 years ago!

During the dark dinner i told my wife that we should go out grocery shopping. My wife had planned to do it tomorrow, but since i didn't want to sit around in the dark, feeling hot and feeding the mosquitoes, going out didn't seem like a bad idea.

After 2 hours of shopping, when we returned, there was still no power!

Doximity!

Imagine you're a surgeon and halfway doing a 10 hour surgery. Suddenly you come up with problem, and you're stuck. A mistake or a delay could decide between life and death. Suddenly you realize, what if some other doctor has had this experience before? Wouldn't it be great if you could find out immediately without having to email everyone or attend a conference? Well, now there's a great way. Doximity is a social networking site for doctors. in a click of a mouse you are connected (or reconnected) with medical professionals worldwide where you can share experiences and information. Sort of like a Linkedin for Doctors, so to speak. Jessica Hirschhorn MD

Diabetics Take Note

Another one of my friends is struggling with cancer recently. He was diagnosed with colon cancer but later discovered it had spread to his lymph nodes, liver and spleen.

It seems like one of the side effects of modern living is cancer is becoming more and more common recently. Sometimes cancer comes by itself, or it could be a genetic thing. And sometimes it a side effect of a drug. Like Actos, for example. Its a drug used to treat type 2 diabetes. But there have been cases that Actos users contracting bladder cancer.

If you are one such case (and a non-smoker) you should seek advice from the leading actos law firm Watts Guerra Craft LLP today.

MaybeBank Scores an Own Goal

Way to go MaybeBank. You guys sure know how to alienate your customers with your half-baked discriminatory practices. After half a century of independence, you still want to impose this kind of practice based on race? You're not a small two-branch local bank, my friend. You're arguably the biggest bank in the country, and ALL Malaysians do business with you, whether they be small businesses or the man on the street.

Even the PM and the Cabinet has warned you to drop the directive. You know what? The people that you are trying to marginalize, well, they may be small in number and may not make much difference to the millions you guys make everyday, but they have a long memory.

Do the right thing, guys. Don't be narrow-minded.

Kid and Careers

This just occured to me recently. My eldest daughter is 11. in less than 12 years, she'll probably be completing her studies and be out looking for a job. I know it far too far away for most people to think about the future, but a good job is key to achieving what you want in life. And even before that, deciding what college to go to and what course to take will decide what you work as.

She's probably too young to know any better, but she's not really into fashion or cosmetics.

But having said that, Cosmetology schools provide an excellent training for those who want to expand their careers in different fields such as showbiz, theater, salons, etc.

The leading school is of course, Regency Beauty Institute, with more than 80 schools and expanding further.

Fast Food Nation

Just watched this movie, after a long time. Actually i heard a lot about it, and i was eager to see it for myself, especially after watching another similar show, Super Size Me and reading about this movie in the papers.

The premisr is simple - it's based on the book by the same name, where fictionalized events take place based on some research of real events.

It was disappointing, the movie was slow and whatever it was trying to build up didn't really lead to much in the end. There were a few inter-related storylines, but in the end, all weren't resolved, and the main point that the movie wanted to make, well, about the processed beef and all, it didn't really offer anything new, other than trying to portray it in a shocking way.

Super Size Me was definitely better.

Drive Angry

The other day, i was watching this movie called 'Drive Angry' seen it before? It's an action-packed movie, very enjoyable. there were some spectacular car chase scenes in the movie, reminiscient of the Fast and Furious movies i watched some years back.

In these movies, cars crash and bump into each other without much worry and care. Unlike in real life. In real life, a small fender bender or scratch will result in stalled traffic and confrontation.

Whenever accidents happen in real life, make sure you are very well advised on what your rights are. That's why you need a good Austin car accident lawyer on your side. Contact these guys to know what you are entitled to.

Accidents Happen

In my (rather short) lifetime, I've had a few minor accidents, but (thankfully) no major accidents before. But i know a few people who have had major accidents, involving more than 2 cars and with severe damage to their automobiles. One even had to be admitted to a hospital for a few days.

Accidents are very unfortunate, but in the event it happens, we should always be know exactly what to do in order to stay calm. Do not panic, make sure you have a good lawyer to advise you on the next step. If you are in the doubt about whether or not you can claim damages from other parties, call O’Hanlon, McCollom & Demerath, the Austin truck accident lawyers specializing in this field.

Two Week Report on Streamyx

I've had Streamyx for just over two weeks now.

If i were to give it a report card, it'd be bad.

Somedays i don't get any connection, some days are okay. But it's the down time that annoys the heck out of me. The last down time was from Thursday night right up to this afternoon. And I'm paying good money for this 'broadband' (and so are lots and lots and lots of people).

Before i subscribed to them, i used to read and hear lots of people including my pals rant and bitch about streamyx, now i can understand why. But it's not that i have an option, it's either this or dial-up. Or no internet.

On the good days, surfing speed varies. Sometimes it's slow, but it's usually adequate. I haven't tested the speed to see whether it's anywhere near 70-80% of the max, does anyone know of any good internet speed websites?

On another note, i bought a computer table for my daughter (not IKEA).

When we brought it back (it was one of those DIY sets pre-pack in flat boxes), we found there was a piece missing - a crucial piece. If fact, the packet of screws and nails was not properly sealed, and they were all rolling around inside box, leaving fine scratches everywhere.

Anyway to cut the short story short, we gave the store a tongue lashing, and it took them more than a week to replace the missing piece. They even had the cheek to say they lost our contact number.

Furniture business seems to be booming. Two more huge furniture malls just opened up down the street. Everyday, i can see loads of people buying new furniture. Not just Chinese folks - Malays and Indians and others.

Economic slowdown? What economic slowdown?
