HAPPY CNY & UPDATES * Thursday, February 7, 2008 * 11:50 AM


Yo! Just updated the blog links and the calendar etc. If you want to be linked please tell me, or get the password from someone and put it up yourself. Oh yea and if you don't want to be linked feel free to say as well because I just linked whoever's blog url I could find. Hmm if there are any mistakes on this blog ie. wrong birthday etc just say ok!

And of course we must keep this blog alive! Anyone can just come and blog when you are free, blog about anything, just make sure it's not explicit materials or vulgarities.

I think we need to change the blog template! New year, new template! If you see any nice templates can just tell me or Xin Tian or whoever then we can change it. I'm too lazy to look for templates myself (in case you don't know my own blog's template has been there for 2-3 years already =P).

Last but not least,
新年快乐!祝大家在新的一年里事事顺心,身体健康,好运连连!鼠年行大运!(:

Jiayou in the year of the Rat.

Okay I'm super hungry I haven't had breakfast yet and it's almost 12pm already! Byebye :D

Study Discovers Why Men Die Younger Than Women * Saturday, August 4, 2007 * 11:02 AM


By Anglophile Author, Mike Pasternack

CAMBRIDGE, ENGLAND — The Wallis Institute for Advanced Studies of Human Behavior has found that the reason men die earlier than women has nothing to do with their physical or genetic makeup at all.

"It's all in the human psyche," said Prof. Clyde Coldham-Fussell, "The one factor that has been overlooked in all this is the number of men who died as a result of not paying attention to what they were doing."

When asked to provide examples of the major causes of this type of distraction, Coldham-Fussell released these photos.
