Hey, it’s nothing man. That little bit of Singapore flag brushing on the ground is a mistake and it’s really nothing compared to this:

Bush Dissrespectful to American flag

 

Delicious is the tool I primarily used to store my bookmarks. (So if it’s down or have a corrupted database, I’ll be crying at one corner.)

The new interface is great except for this:

Block by delicious

Accessing too quickly? It happens too often for me these days. I know I’m good at quick clicks but don’t do this to me Delicious, at least not when I am your faithful user the past one and half years. We’re still cool with each other right?

 

Youths have an innate distrust of adults - developed probably from their experience of having too many adults wanting to control them, restrict their activities, and squelch their dreams.

Youths have an innate distrust of adults

Erm… So it’s innate or developed?

 

Same data for the Olympics, different way of presentation:

Difference between Chinese and USA media

From Sina and CNN.

At Sina Olympic front page:

Chinese win women synchronized springboard

At CNN Sports Illustrated:

Phelps swimming freestyle win in CNN

Singapore news site, Channel NewsAsia:

Channel NewsAsia rather covers Thaksin

Singapore rather covers Thaksin in the front page. That’s because we haven’t won any medals yet. Channel NewsAsia Beijing Olympic site talks about the Olympic spirit, the dance and some Olympic history.

 

American and U.K. media is feeding you lies about what happened in Georgia the night of August 7th, 2008. CNN claims that Russia invaded Georgia. The truth is Georgia had committed the act of genocide against people of South Ossetia, and Russia had no choice but to protect its own citizens!

The truth about South Ossetia War, Georgia attack, and Russia’s response

I’ve been reading a little on the South Ossetia incident. I haven’t heard of this place before this attack. I thought Georgia is a place in USA actually. But news reports have been bias here. The media seem to pay more attention to Georgia as a victim instead of presenting a more objective view of the situation. This could possibly be due to Russia’s politicians reluctance to release statements on the war, but the media seems to be siding Georgia on this one.

[Note: Most of the news I read is USA new sites.]

 

It’s Singapore’s birthday today. Beer for you?

Birthday beer for Singapore

More madness and fun coming year. Better economy too. Our politicians always say things are getting better we just have to tighten our belts. Very tight liao loh.

 

When everyone’s talking about Olympics, Russia goes to war. 1,400 people dead.

Georgia: Russia has invaded and we are under attack

Russia sent troops and tanks into the breakaway Georgian province of South Ossetia today as Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin declared “the war has started”.

1,400 reported dead. Georgia to withdraw troops from Iraq for use in South Ossetia.

Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said: “War started today in South Ossetia when Georgia attacked Russian peacekeepers in the disputed region.”

Georgian President Mikhail Saakasvili told CNN: “Russia is fighting a war with us in our own territory.

Witnesses claim Tskhinvali is devastated. “I saw bodies lying on the streets, around ruined buildings, in cars,” said one.

“It’s impossible to count them now. There is hardly a single building left undamaged.”

The Georgian government said it will try to protect Russian peacekeepers who are in the disputed region. However Russia claims 10 Russian peacekeepers have already been killed. (Source: Belfast Telegraph)
