Photography

My relationship with the above mentioned hobby is a real love-hate affair. The stress of shooting on demand, the pain in waiting for your shot, the agony of seeing a bad photo. But then, there is the pleasure of taking a great shot, the musical sound of the shutter, the amazing colours.

Anyway, I have many failings as a photographer. My greatest failure used to be portraits. I have since improved due to recent happenings. This is one of my keepers.

Phthalates

Read this article about the fact that phthalates are found in the earbuds shipped with iPhone and iPods around the world.

Phthalates are esters and are commonly added to plastics to increase their flexibility. Experiments involving the exposure of rodents to phthalates have been conducted and high levels of exposure has been shown to cause hormornal changes, causing birth defects.

It has also been known to interfere with reproductive organs, especially for males.

These earbuds are not that fantastic anyway. In fact, they are plain bad.

So for the sake of future generations and your ears, please dump these earbuds for a proper pair of earphones.

Height

Today a paedophillic fellow comrade of mine said that "tall people earn more".

We all called him a cock-assed freak and asked him to shut his ass and start shitting through his mouth.

But I was still curious. So I went to search and found this.

Interesting. Lets hope I am not an anomaly.

For the sake of my vertically challenged friends like Liju and Shuning, lets hope they don't follow the trend. Or maybe go for a knee job?

HIV

I read this BBC News article. It is amazing that such a thing can happen.

I think this discovery could open many doors for HIV cure if it is indeed true. It would help everyone in understanding how this virus works and how it infects the human cells.

Amazing ain't it?

Ok, maybe not total emancipation.

Today is a special day. And that is because...

I'm one year from ORD

Frazzled

Been feeling kind of frazzled these few days.

Anyway, my Brunei number is (+673) 8890xxx where xxx are three whole numbers between 0-9 that I shall not reveal on a public domain. But if you get a call or sms from a +673 number, its probably me.
