Deadly Kiss And A Dead Penalty

Real case, real story from Shanghai, China.

"It was 28 of September, 2007 when the story was reported. Xia from Henan has fed Mao, her long time lover, a rat poison while they were kissing. Mao die not long after of the rat poison. They made an oath that if either one cheated the other, the one who betrayed their love should die. Xia caught Mao talking to a girl over a phone and decided to kill him because she thought he was unfaithful to her. Xia was sentenced to death."

Moral behind the story, do no cheat on your partner. If you know that you would, don't make that vow. At least, don't let him or her know if you cheated on them. This doesn't mean that you have the right to be a two timer though. Just that, to flirt (depending on to what extend) and to cheat is totally two different things, to ME. Also, death is a price a little to expensive to pay!

Nature Or Supernatural: The Moving Rocks

It all happened at the Dead Valley in California. We almost didn't see anything else in the area but a few rocks which is out of place.

The mystery part is that the rocks in this area can move by itself, leaving a long winding trail behind as if they are alive.

If nobody lives there, even if there are, who would do such a thing as to move the rocks around leaving a suspicious trail?

Some said it's due to the abrupt temperature change at night where the land frost over. In the morning when temperature rises, the land expands thus pushing the rocks a little.

Over the years of frequent expansions and contractions, the rocks were pushed around far enough to leave a long winding trail as if some supernatural forces had done so. Especially at a place called the Dead Valley.

They Are Pretty, Sexy, Elegant, You Name It: Where The H*ll Are The Real Women?!

Not just a pretty face, they really look sweet. Some even cute, so cute that most men cannot resist!

Others are hot and sexy.

They are wild and their curvy body a lethal weapon.

I cannot help but think this way, where the hell are all the real women? It's time to wake up and looked into the mirror and start putting your face together. Your rivals are not just girls nowadays, you should think of the tiffany as well.

Damn! They are really great, I don't want to admit it but have to. By the way, they were once men!

When Human Falls To The Bottom Of The Food Chain: Giant Catfish

I came across these pictures at some sites, story are more or less the same saying that giant man-eating catfish found in a reservoir in Guangdong, China. The article with these pictures also told how they deploy dead and life chickens to catch this so-called giant catfish.

If you know mandarin, you can visit mop.com, gentle rebelling, or pop for Mandarin version.

What I really wanted to say is that the story is a total bullshit (pardon my French)! I think every diver or marine student should know immediately that this is a "Whale Shark" instead of Catfish!! Whale shark is a filter feeder, feeding on phytoplankton, zooplankton, krill or small nektonic life. They are the largest, harmless shark species which lives in open sea instead of some reservoir!! In fact, they are so huge that only a few aquarium in the world can keep them. Osaka Aquarium Kaiyukan is one and Georgia Aquarium is the other.

Conclusion is, what I really see from the pictures above is not killing a "reservoir-man-eating-monster"! I bet they didn't know that whale shark is an endangered species and they just showed the whole wide world their crime of killing protected animals. Shame on them!

Important Things About Noodles And Instant Noodles

I have to post it in two languages as the original message from e-mail came in Mandarin.

吃麵時請注意 非常重要 尤其在臺灣

水餃熟了會浮起來是正確的，但是麵熟了是不會浮起來的！

【有位朋友家是麵的批發商，就是一般我們吃的陽春麵，牛肉麵，拉麵等等。。。可是他本身卻很少吃麵。一開始大家以為他是吃膩啦，但后來他才說："大家有沒有注意到老板煮麵時，麵是浮在水面上或是沉在水里？"

"有何不同嗎？麵好吃就好!"

會浮在水面的麵是有加入《明礬》 的。明礬的化學成分為硫酸鋁鉀，含有鋁離子。過量攝入人體內會影響人體對鐵，鈣等成分的吸收，導致骨質疏鬆，貧血，甚至影響神經細胞，尤其對兒童和老年人不利。老板為了撈麵時方便，明知有加明礬的麵不好，但反正是客人在吃，所以方便就好。天曉得這些年來我們吃了多少明礬下肚而不自知？】

當然有很多你們都聽過的病例；癌癥就是其中一例。那我就不多嘍嗦，哈拉。醫學臨床報告指出，臺灣 泡麵因為要有好湯頭，所以計量常常是美國營養餅的一倍之多，也是日本泡麵的四十倍以上，所以臺灣的泡麵最好吃。基本上也是最毒的。經過最注重健康的日本人估計，大概吃包臺灣的泡麵就需要肝臟解毒32天，其他的就更甭說了。所以啊，泡麵還是別常吃哦！祝：健康，快樂。

Did you know why noodles will float when it's cooked? It's because one of the ingredient in the noodle is Potassium Alum, commonly use in water purification and also found in baking powder and is very soluble in water. The solution is an astringent. Mild astringent solution is used to treat insect bites, minor cut and etc. However, over dose will affect the body function such as ion and magnesium absorption which later lead to osteoporosis, anemia or even affects the nerves system, especially to children and old people.

Above example is from Taiwan. We all know that too much instant noodles will cause cancer, but did you know why? Study conducted by health-conscious Japanese showed that additive in Taiwanese instant noodle is double the allowed US standard which is also 40 times higher than Japanese limit. That's why Taiwan's instant noodle is the most delicious. Just bear on thing in mind, if you really want to eat instant noodle, make sure you stop for 32 days for your liver to naturally detox before you take the second pack.

p/s: Who ever had pass the email around please let me know. I will put a link to your site. Thanks.

Magnetar And The Devil's Bible

Magnetar is a rare, small, fast-spinning neutron star or celestial body about 15,000 light years away in the constellation Sagittarius. The star is only 9 mile across and periodically shoots out huge cataclysms of X-ray emissions. It contains as much mass as the sun and has one of the most powerful magnetic fields in the universe despite its size. Based on the study conducted with the European Space Agency's XXM-Newton orbiting telescope, its magnetic field is 600 trillion times that of Earth's.

Codex Gigas or the Devil's Bible which was created in the 13th century A.D by a Benedictine monk is now on exhibition at the Klementinum in Prague, the Czech Republic's national library. The tome returning home for the first time after 360 years, for exhibition which will last for four months on loan, since Swedish troops invaded Prague in 1600s and carried the Devil's Bible away as booty. Manuscript contains the Old and New Testaments of the Bible along with several historical texts of 624 pages and weighed 165 pound. Nickname Devil's Bible came from the illustration of Lucifer (in picture above).

The Creativity In Toilet (WC) And Sign

Toilet signs can be very creative sometimes. Though you don't always see such WC sign, but I think it's pretty easy to under stand both the pictures above and below.

That's a good one.

Sometimes, you have to walk a thousand miles to get a toilet if you go to a mountain range country.

My advise, go to China. You can go whenever you wanted to go. And you got to stare at a pretty lady in the poster as you go. ^^
