Toilet Manners

Having seen the worst of human behaviors and the things within a flooded toilet bowl, it's only fitting that all office toilets should have the following sign ...


Here's another way of putting across the same message politely ...


This is found in a toilet of TheStrategy@IBP.

Train is Coming ...

Many people I know are getting very irritated by the constantly repeating chant at MRT station:

Train is coming … train is coming … start queuing! Love your ride!

Here’s a suggestion for a change of words:

Life is challenging … life is challenging … enjoy it! Love your life!

Joining forces once again with their royal friend Prince Caspian and the warrior mouse Reepicheep, they are whisked away on a mysterious mission to the Lone Islands, and beyond. On this bewitching voyage that will test their hearts and spirits, the trio will face magical Dufflepuds, sinister slave traders, roaring dragons and enchanted merfolk. Only an entirely uncharted journey to Aslan's Country – a voyage of destiny and transformation for each of those aboard the Dawn Treader – can save Narnia, and all the astonishing creatures in it, from an unfathomable fate.

Help Needed: Dogs and Cats Shelter

As some of you may have read in the papers, a kind lady by the name of Mdm Yap has spent 3 million dollars in the past 6 years to maintain the shelter by herself. However, due to the high expenses, she has been owing the landlord rental for a couple of months.

Another animal shelter, Mdm Wong's Shelter, is willing to take over Mdm Yap's Shelter to provide love for these animals. However, this is a long-term commitment that requires lots of manpower and financial assistance. The following is a rough breakdown of the monthly expenses:

Food: S$2,000
Manpower: S$2,000
Utilities: S$1,000
Rental: S$3,500-S$4,000
Medical: S$1,000*
Shampoo, misc, etc: S$500
Total: S$10,000-S$10,500

*Not including vet visits, hospitalisation fees

Mdm Wong's Shelter is currently facing financial difficulties as well with the possibility of closure if not enough funds are raised by end October 2010. This means some 30 dogs and 60 cats are facing the danger of being put to sleep, getting killed or abused.

A colleague of mine who has been a volunteer there for the past two Sundays, said some of the cats and dogs are strays while some of them are abandoned. Nevertheless, they are always very friendly and loving towards every volunteer. Some will jump up, grab her waist and look at her with loving eyes, and some will run and hide with fears in their eyes.

Webinar

First time I attended a webinar (web-based seminar) yesterday (9-10pm Singapore time; 9-10am USA EDT time).

I get to look at what's presented onscreen, hear the presenter's voice, ask questions and speak out. Interesting and interactive.
