Poor Cat On The Road

Kinda depressing to know that my cat (pictured right) is confirmed as the cat that was hit by the roadside in the pouring rain - on the road heading towards my house gate a few days ago.

My old folks could hardly recognize him as his whole body was drenched wet and his face was disfigured as it was completely crushed flat. One of his legs were nearly severed off his body - probably due to the number of cars that went through him.

Just to be sure - we had a four day wait for his return... just in case it was another stray cat instead of him... guess this be the fifth day now.

He will be missed.

Yesterday I attended my old supervisor's wedding at the Sabah Cultural Center. It was for me, a good opportunity to meet up with old friends and colleagues that I used to work with in the airlines industry... a handful of people I knew came for his afternoon reception - as I got to know the others opted to celebrate the night-time celebrations at the newlywed's residence.

At the end of it all, I'd say its about time they both got married... they've been together for almost a decade before tying the knot.

A new theme

I placed in another theme.

The recent theme was way too bland, my eyes got sick looking at it... so I had fun adjusting and modifying the new theme a little - learned a thing or two about modifying themes. I'm sure there's a few glitches here and there in certain sections of the blog... but that will be sorted out soon.

IE seems to hate my embedded code... but every other browser seems to be cool with it.

Enjoy the fresh look~

I love the way my dog's positioned. lol.

My mother was telling me earlier this week about hearing a claim about mouthwashes like Listerine causing mouth cancer and that she, recommended I chuck away the huge Listerine bottle I bought a couple months before this news came about.

So I did a little reading about the claim:

Historical Pondering

Dr. Joseph ListerThe diluted version of Listerine (which is what we use today) was produced somewhere in the late 1800's and was marketted as a cure for chronic halitosis (or known in simple english as extremely bad breath). Before this - the idea and its applications was used as a surgical antiseptic of medical tools and hygenic methods in the medical industry during the late 19th century.

"Listerine", the diluted antiseptic mouthwash - was named in honour of Dr. Joseph Lister (known as the founder/father of antiseptics). He didn't manufacture the product, it was only named after him for he was well known in the medical field - specializing in antiseptics. The powers of marketing...

After reading this - it becomes a little surprise that it was designed not for the mouth, but for medical instruments to avoid germs and bacteria that causes surgical infections... of course the Listerine for the mouth is diluted to chemical concentrations which are within "safe" levels.

Magical Drink... Not.

This is for mamak patrons that love going out for a teh tarik session.

cup of black stuffCant see it? Some usual gunk in the tea?
I just don't understand the logic behind the issue of the coal power plant, which Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) is all the more determined to set up.

TNB wants to set up a power plant like this...

Tun Sakaran Marine ParkTabin CombinedLets not forget these animals are endangered species and are supposed to be under government protection.
