As Legend goes, Pulau Ubin was formed when a frog, a pig and an elephant challenged each other to a race to reach the shores of Johor. Whoever did not make it to the shore would turn into stone. As all three where unable to reach to shore, they all turned into stone. The Pig and the Elephant turned into Pulau Ubin and the Frog turned into Pulau Sekudu.
Pulau Ubin is the last Kampung in Singapore. Ubin is a reflection of days gone by with its wooden houses, plantations, rich and preserved wildlife. Situated in the northeastern coast of Singapore, it is being developed into a nature park.
It is a place where the inhabitants live as relaxed as possible. There are still about a hundred villagers living on the Island.
As Some villagers still depend on traditional farming and fishing for subsistence, others tend to their provision stores, eateries or bicycle shops as tourism is finally catching up.
Ubin is a great day trip. Just walk or cycle around on the rustic deserted roads, sunbathe on a secluded beach or chill out in hammock under a palm tree.
Chek Jawa is a natural beach at the eastern tip of Pulau Ubin where marine life such as the horseshoe crab and sand dollar are still abundant. Several different ecosystems can be seen in one small area here.
Rare birds like the Oriental pied-hornbill and the Red jungle fowl can be spotted around this area.
Amenities in Chek Jawa Wetlands include an information kiosk, boardwalk, viewing tower, viewing jetty and a visitor centre with seminar room and workroom.
There are camping facilities and a number of guesthouses on Ubin for those who like to stay for a few days.
Pulau Ubin is a 10-minute boat ride from the Changi Point jetty.

Ugly Gus
Gus, a pedigree Chinese crested, was in California(USA) elected as the ugliest dog in the world.
The Poor dog has only three legs, one eye and a little bit of white fur on the head.
Gus and his owner who lives in Florida traveled thousands of kilometers just to enter the bizarre competition.
Gus might be ugly but by winning the contest he got $500 and a guest appearance on national TV.
The $500 is more than welcome says Gus’ owner who will spend the money on treatment for Gus' skin cancer.
Well, don’t worry Gus. I’m pretty sure that a lot of dogs are uglier than you but they just couldn’t make it to the contest.

Biofuels cause Great Poverty
According to aid agency Oxfam, biofuels are an important cause of the raising food prizes in the world. Biofuels are responsible for 30 percent of the increase in global food prices. Because of this around 30 million people worldwide are pushed into poverty.
Developed countries try to reduce their dependence on imported oil and cut emissions of carbon dioxide which led to a shortage of grain, pushing up commodity prices.
Biofuels are taking over agricultural land in the poorer countries and forcing farmers to expand into lands that are important carbon sinks, like forests and wetlands.
An Official report states that Rich countries spent up to $15 billion last year supporting biofuels while blocking cheaper Brazilian ethanol, which is far less damaging for global food security.
So think twice before you think you are saving the world by using biofuel!!!!

Geylang Serai in Singapore
The cultural heart of the Malay community in Singapore is Geylang Serai.
This district is the best place to experience the typical ethnic group of Singapore as the Malays are the native inhabitants of Singapore.
In the early 1920s, after the British authorities dispersed their floating village at the mouth of the Singapore River, the Malay population moved out to Geylang Serai as a consequence of the keen competition for land in Kampong Gelam.
Geylang is still partly untouched by urban projects and developments that has changed the face of Singapore since the 1970s. The district is regarded as one of the happening districts with a glittering and vibrant nightlife.
Geylang Serai district is particularly famous for shopping, eateries and nightclubs, including a red-light district.
Many restaurants still have a strong Malay influence and offer traditional Malay cuisine.
Check out the Malay Village and feel the vibe of the traditional 'Kampung Days' lifestyle of Malays in the 1950s and 1960s.
Hari Raya Aidilfitri is a great time to visit Geylang.
Hari Raya Aidilfitri marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan and is a time of abstinence, contemplation and worship for Muslims. It is one of the most significant celebrations for Muslims.
During Hari Raya Aidilfitri the streets in Geylang are colorfully lit with night bazaars offering traditional Malay handicraft, clothes and accessories, numerous food stalls offering traditional Malay food.

Smokers getting paid to stop smoking
Smokers are offered £12,50 per week to stop smoking in deprived parts of the big cities in Scotland.
The organizers hope that around 900 smokers will be helped with the £500,000 pilot scheme.
Participating smokers will be offered £12.50 per week with which they can buy food in their local supermarket.
The participants will also be provided with nicotine replacement therapy through their local pharmacy.
Smokers can take part in the project for 12 weeks.
This new incentive scheme is a partnership between NHS Tayside, Dundee City Council and the Scottish Government and is launching in the autumn.
I been planning to stop smoking for while and I just wonder if money will do the trick.
And how will the participants be tested, what stops them from smoking during the project?
And what after those 12 weeks?
Smoking is a habit that is hard to break and it takes a lot of self discipline to quite.
Stating that they want to help the deprived by giving them some money for a few weeks will not do the trick I'm afraid.
Instead they should try to get jobs for those people as boredom is the biggest problem for people who want to stop smoking.
Good luck to all of you who want to stop!

Stuff Legends are made of
Are they still around now a days? Those super Football Players that can carry their team to victory. The kind of players that make a Wold Cup or Euro Cup worth watching.
The Kind of player that rises above the others when trouble is looming and is able to turn a game around with a single action.
The kind of player that makes their country triumph.
Their are plenty of wanna bees, the kind of players that will lead their teams to victory in a Champions League.
Once they accomplished something like that they will start to ask for a pay raise or a transfer to a bigger or better paying team( not mentioning any names but sure most people now the ones).
But doing that doesn't make you a legend.
There don't seem to be any more players of that special kind.
I think I can say that maybe Zinedine Zidane was the last great one.
Leading the French to European and World Cup victories.
Ending his career with a header probably made him even more legendary.
Ronaldinho came close but then it all went wrong.
Ronaldo( the Brazilian one) might be among those legends, after being top scorer in the World Cup when Brazil became World champions.
But at the moment?
NO, I don't see that kind of player on the fields.
Maybe they should watch some old footage and learn and focus more on the game instead of thinking of the big money!

The Incredible Hulk Movie Review
Going into the movie theater with a big dose of skepticism but coming out quite pleased.
The Incredible Hulk is not the best movie I have ever seen but it provided the dose of pure entertainment I was hoping for.
Edward Norton plays Bruce Banner, a fugitive living in Brazil, who is looking for a cure for the disease called “Hulk”. Whenever he gets angry ( not hungry!) he will turn green and gets superpowers that allows him too even throw cars in the air. Being a man who is not happy with what he became he wants to find answers.
Tim Roth plays Emil Blonsky, a soldiers who wants the power that the Hulk caries in him. He will be injected with a dose of some radioactive stuff so he can become as powerful as the hulk.
While the actors perform very good in their roles it comes all down to the animated characters to fight it out in a great climax.
Marvel produced a comic movie that is far above standard and by far an improvement over Ang Lee’s Hulk.
Rating: 7/10

Driving into the City in Singapore is getting more expensive
With 7 more gantries going live along the banks of the Singapore River on July 7, there will be in total 65 gantries island wide.
While gantries in the business district will stay on an hour longer, the ones in Orchard road will go on an hour earlier.
There will be higher Electronic Road Pricing (ERP)charges at 37 gantries.
The higher prices are part of an effort to speed up the traffic in the city during peak hours.
Inflation is no excuse to keep the prices low says MR. Cedric Foo.
What ever way helps to get money out of peoples pocket. And again it is the middle class that will suffer the most!
They also say that there are more people taking public transportation.
Then why don't they start to put more busses in use so that the people are not packed like sardines?
The public transportation companies should not put timetables on the board when they can not stick to it!
960 please be on time for once!!!!!!

Makers of Angels and Demons banned from the Vatican
The makers of Angels and Demons, a prequel to The Da Vinci Code, have been banned from the Vatican.
In Angels and Demons a sinister elite known as the Illuminati to install their candidate as Pope and blow up the Vatican.
Crucial scenes where to shot in the churches Santa Maria del Popolo and Santa Maria della Vittoria.
The Church also condemned the Da Vinci Code, the first Dan Brown novel turned into a movie.
Tom Hanks also stars in Angels and Demons, which like The Da Vinci Code, is directed by Ron Howard.
Archbishop Velasio De Paolis stated that It would be unacceptable to transform churches into film sets so that his blasphemous novels can be made into films in the name of business.
The cast will have to shoot some scenes in the studio.
But it is a big question to me if Angels and Demons can satisfy the movie goers as The Da Vinci Code was far below average.

Singapore's Chinatown
Chinatown was the heart of the city's trading activity in the 19th and early 20th centuries.
It is a bit funny to have a Chinatown in a country where over 70% of the population is Chinese.
Chinatown comes from the early British days where the city was partitioned into neighborhoods. The British divided the city into districts based on ethnic groups, in order to keep racial tensions minimized. At that time the Chinese population was a minority.
In those days the Chinese immigrants were pore and Chinatown was a place of many brothels and opium dens.
Today it is a fast developing area with plenty of souvenir shops and restaurants.
The old architecture has been preserved resulting in a neighborhood with traditional shop-houses, full of color.
Visit the Thian Hock Keng Temple, also known as the Temple of Heavenly Happiness. Completed in 1841, it is one of Singapore's oldest and largest temples.
The Sri Mariamman Temple in Chinatown is Singapore's oldest and most important Hindu temple. The Temple, covering Hundreds of brightly painted statues of deities and mythical animals, honors the Goddesses Devi and Mariamman.
Located on Telok Ayer Street, The Nagore Durghar Shrine offers a unique blend of Classical and Indian-Muslim motifs.
The Jinrikisha Station, now restored and turned into a shopping and recreational centre was once the station for up to 9000 jinrikishas.
One of the best times to visit Chinatown is a few days before the Lunar New Year or Dumpling festival.
Chinatown is just a short walk from Outram Park or Chinatown MRT Stations.

Singapore's Little India
Little India is the focal point of Singapore's Indian community. Walking into Little India is an overdose of inputs on your senses.

Tuesday and Fridays are the Hindu holy days, gods are honored with simple strands of flowers and on those days you will find plenty of small stalls selling flowers to be offered to the Gods.
There is no lack of restaurants in Little India. Make sure to try the “Teh Tarik”, a hand pulled cup of tea or some spicy Indian curry before you leave. For only a few dollar you will get a good meal in any of the restaurants.

EURO 2008 in Singapore
Watching EURO 2008 in Singapore will cost you your sleep. As all the games start in the evening in Europe, it means that you have to stay up till 5 in the morning to watch the games.
I only watched two games so far and thats not only because the games are so late.
The rights for EURO 2008 went to STARHUB in Singapore and if you don't have the sports channels in your cable TV package you have to pay for every game you want to see.
Yes, it's all about the money again!
Offcourse, the late schedule of the games will not attract to many advertisers so they will have to get their money in some ways.
Luckily there is still the Malaysian channels.
TV3 shows a game live every two days what is a bit bizarre. They must have some kind of agreement with some other channels.
For now I decided that my sleep is more important than football, but as soon as it comes to the quarter finals I don't think that my Football loving genes can resist the excitement.

Scolari coached Brazil to their 2002 World Cup success and reached with Portugal the EURO 2004 Final and World Cup 2006 Semi Final.

Some names of top players on the request list of Scolari are Kaka, now playing for Milan; Fernando Torres, now playing for Liverpool; Frank Ribery, now playing for Bayern Munich and even Ronaldinho of Barcelona who had a very bad season.
Another Barcelona player, Deco might put his signature on a contract within a few days time.
It is still not sure what players will leave Chelsea, but it's guaranteed that they will have a great squad again next year.

Kung Fu Panda Movie Review
All Po(Jack Black), the Panda, wants is to be a Kung Fu Master but being a Panda doesn't help him much to realize his dreams.
But during a formal ceremony Po is chosen by tortoise Master Oogway to become the next Dragon Warrior.
And so Po's training starts to become the ultimate Kung Fu Fighter.
He is trained by Shifu(Dustin Hofman) in an attempt to get him ready to fight the evil snow leopard warrior Tai Lung.
Po, will also get help in his training of the Furious Five, Tigress(Angelina Jolie), Monkey(Jacky Chan), Viper(Lucy Liu), Mantis(Seth Rogen) and Crane(David Cross).
After intensive training Po will face the evil snow leopard warrior Tai Lung to reveal who is the one and only Dragon Warrior.
Hilarious from beginning all the way till the end!
Maybe the best animated film of the last few years, together with Shrek.
Although there are a lot of great actors in the cast,it's all about the Panda or should I say Jack Black.
And it is what he does best: being super funny.

Maybe the best animated film of the last few years, together with Shrek.
Although there are a lot of great actors in the cast,it's all about the Panda or should I say Jack Black.
And it is what he does best: being super funny.

Singapore Top Attractions Getting Too Expensive?
A survey held by The Strait Times revealed that 18 out of 20 parents find the Top Attractions in Singapore too expensive.
On average a family of four would have to spend around S$ 125 for a day out at one of the top attractions, that would include a small meal and souvenir.
Singapore Night Safari tops the list with S$240 for a family of four.
Although some of the attractions give discounts, the parents still think it is too expensive.
The costs for the theme parks might be worth the money but are these still affordable for the middle class?
If a production worker earns around S$50 per day, it will take a whole weeks salary for a trip to the ZOO!
Well, there is always the beach, its cool, its free, its fun!

Manny, The Labrador, Is No More
Yesterday, a Labrador named Manny died.
His death was announced in the newspaper today. Now what can be so special about this dog that they write about it in the newspaper?
They where even planning a post-mortem on the dog to figure out the cause of death.
Well, the dog was special, very special.
This dog was trained to sniff out pirated discs!
Does a pirated disc smells different from a normal one?
The was to become part of the first anti-piracy canine unit.
A pair of Labradors in the unit sniffed out US$ 1.6million worth of CD's and because of this the counterfeiters decided to put a price on the head of these dogs.
So, did Manny died of natural causes or was he murdered by the counterfeiters?

The Earth completed another Orbit around the Sun
Yesterday I celebrated my 35th Birthday.
So, I celebrated the Earths 35th orbit around the Sun in my life.
365 days for one orbit, 35 years, that makes me 12775 days old.
24 Hours in one day, that makes me 306600 hours old.
60 minutes in one hour, that makes me 18.396.000 minutes old.
60 seconds in one minute, that makes me ...... the number is to big to mention.
Some hairs already gave up on me and left my skull, others are turning gray ten years to early.
The ones that are leaving will not celebrate the next completion of another orbit of the earth around the Sun, with me.
I'm glad that my wife told me that she will still love me, even if I'm bold.
So hairs, leave me if you want but I will be celebrating another orbit of the Earth around the Sun next year!

I won the Lottery.....Again!
Yep, I did it again. I won the UK Lottery without filling in a form, speaking of Magic.
It must be the tenth time I won it by now, at least that's what they put in those mails I keep getting.
Another one I just received is that I'm approved to get 7500 US$. Thanks!
Listen people! It's very nice of you all to send me a mail but most of this rubbish goes strait into the bin.
And if I win the Lottery again, please, just send me the Check!
Thanks.

Homer is getting a paycheck raise
After months of negotiating the voices of the Simpsons are getting a raise.
Every member of the Simpsons family will get around 380.000 US$ per episode.
It puts Homer Simpson in a whole new perspective.
No, Homer is not a born loser, he only acts like that and he got a great hair style(well, I have to say that because mine starts to look like that).
I guess every man recognizes something of himself in good old Homer Simpson.
And it must make Lisa and Bart the richest cartoon teenagers in the world!
Maybe Marge can finally get a hear cut or a new hair color.
I wonder if Moe is getting a raise as well?

20,345 US$ for a bottle of wine
And just when I wrote a post about the high food prices I read in the news paper about a Singaporean Business man who bought 12 bottles of wine for 244,133US$.
The sale took place in Hong Kong at a wine auction held by Acker Merral& Condit at the Shangri - La Hotel.
The Singaporean Business man paid a record 244,133US$ for 12 bottles of 1990 Domaine de le Romanee-Conti. According to wine experts, it is the most expensive and most rare wine in the world.
It is another prove that food prices are rising!
But in this case I don't think that the man in question will starve to dead.
He might have the most expensive hang-over in his life though!!!!!

Skyrocketing food prices cause hunger
If you have to give it a name what would you call it? Free market, capitalism, opportunism or greed.
Since June 2007 prices of food went up with 40%, the price of rice went even up 70% oil prices are at an all time high.
The profits of the oil producing countries went up by 500%.
And because the oil prices went up so much some countries started producing bio fuels, causing rocketing prices for products like corn and multinationals started buying up farm land.
Speculation on food products on the stock markets should be controlled.
Because of the food crisis around 850 million people are suffering from chronicle hunger worldwide.
In a country like Bangladesh more than half of the people live of 1 dollar a day and with the high food prices most people are starving to dead.
Unicef is crying for help but it’s fighting against the tide as prices went up all over the world and even the richer countries can not afford (or don’t want) to donate a lot of food supplies.

Space Shuttle Discovery on the way to fix toilet
The space shuttle should arrive at the space station today after taking of 2 days ago.
The space shuttle will deliver spare parts for a malfunctioning toilet.
The toilet is Russian made and they started having problems with it since last week.
At the moment it takes two Astronauts ten minutes to flush the toilet.
I'm sure they must be happy that they will come to fix the toilet.
It definitely gives a whole new meaning to toilet flushing!!!

Beckham most overrated player in the game
Beckham will be the captain of the English team this week when they play against Trinidad and Tobago.
The guy is 33 years old, plays for an American team and is on his way out.
Beckham is by far the most overrated player in the history of football!
Yes, he can kick a free free kick, but thats about it.
He will be remembered as a famous player and not as a legendary player.
And why does the English squad keeps playing against all those little teams?
I guess Fabio Capello is so scared of loosing that he doesn't want to test the National team against a good squad.
Sooner or later you will have to Capello!
