MASK, in my opinion is one of the best cartoons ever. It will be so cool if some Hollywood directors shoot this into an sction movie.
While my kid sister is enjoy a white Christmas in Canada, we are going to spend in on the infamous Maroubra Beach. We will build sandman and throw sand balls. We will sand board and just pretend everything is white.
Abercrombie & Fitch (A&F), together with Pink, whose real name is Alecia Moore, has joined with PETA in calling for consumers worldwide to boycott products made with Australian wool.
In the graphic PETA video saw footages of Australian farmers using the mulesing technique, which involves cutting flesh from the rear ends of sheep.
Mulesing is a procedure carried out to remove loose skin from around the anus of Merino sheep in order to prevent attack by flies. Merino sheep are particularly susceptible to flystrike as they have folds of skin around the perineum (the hairless area under the tail) which can become soiled by urine and faeces.
Flies, particularly the Australian blowfly (Lucilia cuprina), are attracted to wool that is moist due to contamination with urine and faeces. The blowfly lays its eggs in the moist wool and the flesh-eating larvae can create painful wounds, causing the sheep considerable pain, stress, suffering and often, a slow death.
Pink describes mulesing as the "cheapest, cruelest and crudest way" to combat flystrike.
In my opinion, just leave the farmers alone. There are more important concerns in the world than bothering about animal being painful.
Singapore Airlines committed to buy 9 more double-decker A380 aircraft from Airbus despite delays in delivery.
Confirmation of the A380 deal follows an initial order of 10 superjumbos made in 2001, and commits SIA to buy a total of 19 of the giant passenger liners.
SIA is set to be the first carrier to get the A380 in October 2007.
Wow.
Singapore was hit by the third highest rainfall recorded in 75 years.
The 24 hour rainfall yesterday recorded was 366 mm, exceeded even the average amount of 284 mm recorded for the whole month of December in previous years.
It had caused flooding in the northern and central parts of Singapore, with water level reaching the knees.
