Work, Life and Balance

There are thousands and thousands of people out there leading lives of quiet, screaming desperation, where they work long, hard hours at jobs they hate to enable them to buy things they don’t need to impress people they don’t like
- Nigel Marsh

How true isn’t it? How many times have we heard about people saying that they will have a life after they retire but why do you need to wait that long to have a life? I always believed that it’s about having a great balance in everything we do, Nigel Marsh thinks that we should Approach balance in a balanced way .. I agree!

It’s the small things that actually have a massive impact and its important to pay attention to them as much or more than the material indulgence which we sway to keep us happy

How to tell if a Egg is gone bad

Have you ever had eggs’ at home for a while and not sure if you can consumer the egg or if its gone bad? This is a simple test that you can do to find out if the egg is gone bad … or not

Place the egg into a bowl of cold water. The water level should be about 2 times higher than the egg

Observe what the egg does.

• Fresh eggs will sink to the bottom of the bowl and probably lie on their sides.
• Slightly older eggs (about one week) will lie on the bottom but bob slightly.
• If the egg balances on its smallest tip, with the large tip reaching for the top, it’s probably close to three weeks old.
• Eggs that float at the surface are bad and should not be consumed.

Pretty easy ha! Make sure you check if you are not sure!

MAS & AirAsia Co Sponsor QPR

Here’s something interesting. After Tony Fernandes toke over QPR, i noticed that the QPR kit did not have a sponsor on it. The obvious was that AirAsia would be appeared on the QPR shirts but i have a niggling feeling that MAS (Malaysian Airlines) might be the dark horse to brace the London club, this was of course after the recent announcement that AirAsia owners were in a stock swap with AirAsia taking 20% stocks in MAS with MAS getting 10% stocks in the national carrier.

And looks like i was right, well .. Partly at least!

In a announcement today MAS will appear on the QPR home kit and AirAsia will appear on the away and 3rd kit.

Having 2 different sponsors is a first for any Premier League team and im not surprised with this move as Tony Fernendes has been on a roll with his actions.

Malaysia Airlines’ Executive Director, Mohammed Rashdan Yusof, said: “Malaysia Airlines, or more commonly known by our acronym MAS, is elated to be associated with QPR’s ascendancy to the Premier League.

Our sponsorship of the home jersey of QPR, together with Air Asia’s sponsorship of the away jersey, is a first for the Premier League. It also celebrates MAS’s recent collaboration framework with Air Asia.

The Malaysian interest in British Football increases further with this sponsorship and something tells me this is not the end.

Syed the ISA Albar

Home minister has warned that :

“The Government will invoke the Sedition Act against anyone who fans racial or religious sentiments during the 10-day Permatang Pauh by-election campaign”

Im not a fan of the ISA and i don’t think that its right for the Home Minister to say such things because it comes acrosss as threatening. Having said that, i applaud his concerns in ensuring that no racial tensions is sparked during the by-election campaign period.

There are definately many ways in ensuring nobody crosses certain lines but ISA?
