Safari screwed up my blog widgets!

Is interesting to see how the different browser intepret the CSS, javascripts or HTML.....Here are 2 good examples from my blog browsed by using Safari......NOTE: IF you are using IE or firefox, you should be able to see them correcting on the right column for comparison: Example 1: I wonder how Nuffnang ads got into my shoutboxPhoto Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket Example 2: Another amazing thing is to see my shoutbox being thrown into my flickr badge Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

The usual sin: cannot run, buy running gear!!!

About One month back......my 2 yr old water bottle pouch gave way....I blogged about it 2 years back and it costed me <$10...time really flies..... I was telling some guys in the evening.....when i am down and out of running....i tends to buy new gears.....I got my my latest 2 pairs of running shoes when I was sick this year: puma02 and chibapro Today...i am still down....have been down for almost 2 weeks....and i got another new gear: Nathan Elite I Plus hydration pouch: Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket I felt the water bottle is too small....at least is smaller than my favourite red adidas water bottle...so i tried it! Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket BINGO!! it fits....at least the pouch still can hold it properly...look like i can use back my baby bottle with it.....i probably will not use the gel bottle and the mesh pouch can be used for gel packets........

Singapore Running 2007

This year sees an increased of running events....probably due to the "running boom" that is happening for past 2 years....Last year, we started to see for the first time, women only events in SHAPE Run and Great Eastern Women's 10km......This year is an even more exciting year for the runners.......unfortunately, not for me.....i have yet to joined in any run so far...................... We first saw Mizuno sponsoring the Mount Faber 10km challenge, I signed up but did not make it down due to poor health condition......... We also see SPANS REAL Run club organising the REAL Run event at Bedok Reservoir SAFRA MF also organised a MF ultramarathon which is only open to members (public can signed up as members just to run this also).... Up coming is the Singapore PAssion Run 10km at east coast park ....i din sign up....... Mizuno Wave run will be coming soon at Bedok Reservoir again......... SPANS REAL Run got to shift out of Sentosa this year and they found an interesting venue at the new Changi airshows exhibition centre............. Sheares Bridge Run & Army half marathon has changed its name to Singapore Bay Run & Army Half marathon which will be part of National Day celebration programme........ We also see a new women only event called the Anlene Orchard Mile.......... SHAPE run for women only will still be ON..... We expecting Singapore Marathon registration to be opening soon.......... ....................................................

Trait of a "good" telemarketer

I always got phone calls from telemarketers from banks regarding their promotions and offers on credit products........ Out of 5 calls i received, 4 are indian ladies.......i really wonder why sometimes.....until today then i realised something......they have a trait that others do not have.........the ability to speak "beautiful" english continuously without breaking up sentences with high precision and focus such that the listener is unable to break them without speaking with some force and "impact".........it took me 3 times to speak with force saying "I am NOT interested" before i broke into the "speech" of the indian lady who called me this afternoon................
