Our whole universe was in a hot dense state,
Then nearly fourteen billion years ago expansion started, wait...
The earth began to cool,
The autotrophs began to drool,
Neanderthals developed tools,
We built a wall (we built the pyramids),
Math, science, history, unraveling the mysteries,
That all started with the big bang!

BANG!!

*One day I was walking down the beach with some friends when someone
shouted...'Look at that dead bird!' Someone looked up at the sky and
said...'where???'*

**They Walk among us!!*

***
While looking at a house, my brother asked the estate agent which direction
was north because, he explained, he didn't want the sun waking him up every
morning. She asked, 'Does the sun rise in the north?' When my brother
explained that the sun rises in the east, and has for sometime, she shook
her head and said, 'Oh, I don't keep up with that stuff.' *

**They Walk Among Us!!*

****
My colleague and I were eating our lunch in our cafeteria, when we overheard
one of the administrative assistants talking about the sunburn she got on
her weekend drive to the beach. She drove down in a convertible, but 'didn't
think she'd get sunburned because the car was moving'.*

**They Walk Among Us!!!!*

***
I told the girl at the steakhouse register that I wanted the half kilogram
sirloin. She informed me they only had an 500g sirloin. Not wanting to
make a scene, I told her I would take the 500g steak instead of the
half-kgr.*

**They walk among us! *

****
My sister has a lifesaving tool in her car it's designed to cut through a
seat belt if she gets trapped She keeps it in the boot...*

**They Walk Among Us!!!!!*

***
My friends and I were on a Lager run and noticed that the cases were
discounted 10%. Since it was a big party, we bought 2 cases. The cashier
multiplied 2 times 10% and gave us a 20% discount.... *

**They Walk Among Us!!!!!!*

***
I was hanging out with a friend when we saw a woman with a nose ring
attached to an earring by a chain. My friend said, 'Wouldn't the chain rip
out every time she turned her head?' I had to explain that a person's nose
and ear remain the same distance apart no matter which way the head is
turned...*

**They Walk Among Us!!!!!!! *

***
I couldn't find my luggage at the airport baggage area. So I went to the
lost luggage office and told the woman there that my bags never showed up.
She smiled and told me not to worry because she was a trained professional
and I was in good hands. 'Now,' she asked me, 'Has your plane arrived
yet?'...*

**They Walk Among Us!!!!!!!!*

***
While working at a pizza parlour I observed a man ordering a small pizza to
go. He appeared to be alone and the cook asked him if he would like it cut
into 4 pieces or 6. He thought about it for some time before responding.
'Just cut it into 4 pieces; I don't think I'm hungry enough to eat 6
pieces.*

**Yep, They Walk Among Us, too.!!!!!!!!*

*Sadly, not only do they walk among us, they also reproduce!!!!*

Associate Professor Roger Reeves...

2008-06-19T14:32:00.001+12:00

Professor Reeves has been successfully looking at the properties of indium nitride and zinc-oxide that have the potential to significantly improve the efficiency of optoelectronic devices.

“Silicon solar cells are used to convert sunlight into electricity but can only achieve a maximum efficiency of around 35 per cent because they treat all wavelengths of sunlight equally – the high energy blue sunlight is treated the same as the lower energy red light. By being cleverer about the way the solar cell is constructed it becomes possible to get close to 100 per cent efficiency – but that requires the development of new semiconductor materials.”

“Zinc oxide is a bizarre material that we know very well — it’s a common ingredient in sunblock and nappy-rash creams. It is also a by-product of copper smelting and thus has a history of thousands of years. However, what has been realised in recent times is that zinc oxide has optical and electronic properties that (in theory) make it better suited for UV or white light-emitting devices than current materials.

“To see why this may be important we only need to look at the transformation of traffic lights. Five years ago a green traffic light consisted of a white light behind a green piece of glass. Most of the energy of the lamp was lost. Today we see traffic lights made of an array of green or yellow or red light-emitting diodes (LEDs). These LEDs are designed to emit light of only the colour wanted and thus there is very little energy wasted.”

In a country such as Japan, the conversion of traffic and railway lights to LED technology has dramatically altered the need for new power stations. That can have a big impact on the environment in reducing CO2 emissions, Professor Reeves said.

...and Dr David Wiltshire

2008-06-19T14:26:00.003+12:00

“Dark energy is the largest contribution — 76 per cent — to the content of the universe in our present standard cosmology. It is postulated as a smooth energy in the vacuum of space, which makes the expansion of the universe want to accelerate,” Dr Wiltshire said.

“The first models were based on a very simple approximation where the universe is uniformly smooth and featureless, evolving the same way in all directions. Looking at the huge numbers of observations such as supernovae distances, cosmic microwave background radiation fluctuations and galaxy clustering statistics, and thinking about the many anomalies standard dark energy does not solve, I thought we had to be much more careful in the way we interpret the observations,” Dr Wiltshire said.
He said that the present universe was very lumpy and that galaxies were not uniformly distributed with huge voids hundreds of millions of light-years across.

Long before galaxies formed, matter was smoothly distributed and clock rates were the same everywhere. Now that it was “lumpy”, it was necessary to account for where the observer was when calibrating cosmic clocks.

A common analogy is that space curves around a massive object - just as a rubber sheet on a trampoline will stretch around a heavy cannon ball - and time slows down there.
“The flat edge of the rubber sheet is the reference point for our clocks. It is only the space beyond this flat edge that is expanding. Clock rates and the curvature of space can both vary gradually as you move across an expanding void.”

And, since mass slows down time, the clocks of observers in voids, where most of the empty space in the universe is, will appear to be ticking faster than the clocks of observers in galaxies.

It was this last feature, he said, that explained why dark energy was unnecessary.

"I always based everything on this motivation -- this flame -- that was in me. And once I lost that, I lost many, many things,"

"I had reached my limits, and I feel strong and relieved that I could take this decision," she said. "There are plenty of things that I can do. There are no regrets. I did everything I had to do in tennis."

How Things Even Out

2008-03-30T20:19:00.002+13:00

From http://www.newyorker.com/humor/2008/03/03/080303sh_shouts_handey

Things tend to even out. Religion, some people say, has caused wars and fighting. Yes, but it’s also boring to sit through a church service, so it evens out. One moment you’re depressed because your doctor tells you that you have alcoholism. But then you cheer up when you go home and find a hidden bottle of vodka you had forgotten about.
Things are evening out all the time, if you take time to notice, like I do. Let’s say you want a big cupcake, with lots of icing, so you go buy one and eat it. But then you realize, I don’t have the cupcake anymore. Or maybe you take a bite of salsa that’s labelled “HOT,” and it doesn’t seem that hot, but then about a second later it seems really hot.
You might hear that some guy you know is having a party, so you call him up, but he says there’s no party. But then you call back, using a different voice, and suddenly there is a party.
One day, you ask people to take a look at a skin rash you have. Then, a few days later, you’re looking at their rashes. You send someone a death threat and then, mysteriously, the police come to your house and threaten you.
Maybe you find a nice flat pebble on a riverbank, and when you pick it up and throw it it skips across the water several times. But then the next pebble you can’t even pry loose because, what is this, glue mud? You notice an ant drifting away on a leaf in the water. Then you look up to see your aunt drifting away in a rowboat.
Eventually, I believe, everything evens out. Long ago, an asteroid hit our planet and killed our dinosaurs. But, in the future, maybe we’ll go to another planet and kill their dinosaurs.
Even in the afterlife things probably even out, although I can’t imagine how.
Still don’t believe that things even out? Try this simple test: flip a coin, over and over again, calling out “Heads!” or “Tails!” after each flip. Half the time people will ask you to please stop.
Once you realize that things even out, it’s like a light being turned on in your head, then being turned off, then being turned to “dim.”
Probably the perfect example of things evening out happened to me just last month. I was walking to the post office to mail a death threat. It was a beautiful day. I was happily singing away in my super-loud singing voice. I didn’t step on any chewing gum, like I usually do, and when I threw my gum down it didn’t stick to my fingertips. As I rounded the corner, there was a bum begging for change. I was feeling pretty good, so I gave him a five-dollar bill. At first I tried to make him do a little dance for the five dollars, but he wouldn’t do it, so I gave him the five dollars anyway.
Not long after that, I was reading the paper, and there was a picture of the bum. He had won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry! He had a little bigger nose and straighter teeth, but I’m pretty sure it was him. So, my five dollars had made him change his ways and become a chemistry guy.
A few days later, I was walking by the corner again, and there was the bum, back begging. So, things had evened out. He had gotten the Nobel Prize, but now he was a bum again. I asked him for the five dollars back, but he started saying weird stuff that I guess was chemistry formulas or something.
I told my friend Don the story, but he said it wasn’t an example of things evening out so much as just a stupid story. That’s interesting, Don, because you saying that evens out what I said to your mother that time.
I have a lot of stories about things evening out, but I think the one about the Nobel Prize-winning bum is the best. I’d say it would take about three of my other stories to even out that one. ♦

see the difference you can make

Irish Pub Sausage

2008-03-09T20:36:00.001+13:00

This is a good one:

Shamus and Murphy fancied a pint or two but didn't have a lot of money. Between them, they could only raise the staggering sum of one Euro.
Murphy said 'Hang on, I have an idea.'
He went next door to the butcher's shop and came out with one large sausage.
Shamus said 'Are you crazy? Now we don't have any money left at all!'
Murphy replied, 'Don't worry - just follow me.'
He went into the pub where he immediately ordered two pints of Guinness and two glasses of Jamieson Whisky.
Shamus said 'Now you've lost it. Do you know how much trouble we will be in? We haven't got any money!!'
Murphy replied, with a smile. 'Don't ! worry, I have a plan, Cheers!'
They downed their drinks. Murphy said, 'OK, I'll stick the sausage through my zipper and you go on your knees and put it in your mouth.'
The barman noticed them, went berserk, and threw them out.
They continued this, pub after pub, getting more and more drunk, all for free.
At the tenth pub Shamus said 'Murphy - I don't think I can do any more of this. I'm drunk and me knees are killin' me!'
Murphy said, 'How do you think I feel? I lost the sausage in the third pub.'

ok everyone wished everyone "Merry Christmas" but why do you say it to a monk? lol.
On Christmas eve, i was at Petaling Street. A backpacking foreign lady gave a few RM to a monk and got a cloth bracelet from him. The funny thing was, before she left, she said "Merry Christmas" to the monk lmao. i guess she must be loving her bracelet so much now, just like how i treasure my "Support the Surf Life Savers" wristband. At least i got mine from real surf lifeguard, hers wasn't even from a real monk:P

anyway, Happy Belated Christmas eveyrone=)

Badminton Rules!

2007-08-15T16:48:00.000+12:00

1) In order to score a player must land his cock in his opponent’s court.

2) Players may only handle their cock before serving or after scoring.

3) If a player does not get their cock into his opponent’s court for any reason then he does not score and cannot try again until he has service again.

4) Damaged cocks should not be used as this can cause irritation to the court surface.

5) Rubber covers are advised for safety as they are about 99% less likely to damage the court.

6) Courts with warn or damaged patches should not be used for at least two weeks.

7) If while playing the cock lands out of the court the players should clean up and carry on with the game unless they are too tired.

8) The type of cock and size of court should not affect players enjoyment of the game.

9) Large courts are not advisable for play as generally they have been overused in the past.

10) If the opponent is not ready to receive a service for any reason, play should be suspended.

11) To aid play, the players should keep an eye on their cock and the court at all times.

12) To increase service length, the server can use a different type of raquet, this is more likely to stimulate interesting play.

13) If the game does not envolve mixed singles then the area of play should be changed.

14) Always remember if you serve too high your cock may get stuck in the lights!

"Hey There Delilah"

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as youI swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

Hey there Delilah
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me girl
Someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar
We'll have it goodWe'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good

Hey there Delilah
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song
I wrote to youWould take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Delilah I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and you'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Delilah here's to you
This ones for you

Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me.

Rules of Manhood

2006-10-02T23:45:00.000+13:00

The International Rules of Manhood

1: Under no circumstances may two men share an umbrella.

2: It is OK for a man to cry ONLY under the following circumstances:

(a) When a heroic dog dies to save its master.
(b) The moment Angelina Jolie starts unbuttoning her blouse.
(c) After wrecking your boss' car.
(d) When she is using her teeth.

3: Any Man who brings a camera to a bachelor party may be legally
killed and eaten by his buddies.

4: Unless he murdered someone in your family, you must bail a friend
out of jail within 12 hours.

5: If you've known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off
limits forever unless you actually marry her.

6: Moaning about the brand of free beer in a buddy's fridge is
forbidden. However complain at will if the temperature is unsuitable.

7: No man shall ever be required to buy a birthday present for
another man. In fact, even remembering your buddy's birthday is
strictly optional. At that point, you must celebrate at a strip bar of
the birthday boy's choice.

8: On a road trip, the strongest bladder determines pit stops, not
the weakest.

9: When stumbling upon other guys watching a sporting event, you may
ask the score of the game in progress, but you may never ask who's
playing.

10: You may flatulate in front of a woman only after you have brought
her to climax. If you trap her head under the covers for the purpose
of flatulent entertainment, she's officially your girlfriend.

11: It is permissible to drink a fruity alcohol drink only when
you're sunning on a tropical beach... and it's delivered by a topless
model and only when it's free.

12: Only in situations of moral and/or physical peril are you allowed
to kick another guy in the nuts.

13: Unless you're in prison, never fight naked.

14: Friends don't let friends wear Speedos. Ever. Issue closed.

15: If a man's fly is down, that's his problem, you didn't see
anything.

16: Women who claim they "love to watch sports" must be treated as
spies until they demonstrate knowledge of the game and the ability to
drink as much as the other sports watchers.

17: A man in the company of a hot, suggestively dressed woman must
remain sober enough to fight.

18: Never hesitate to reach for the last beer or the last slice of
pizza, but not both, that's just greedy.

19: If you compliment a guy on his six-pack, you'd better be talking
about his choice of beer.

20: Never join your girlfriend or wife in discussing a friend of
yours, except if she's withholding sex pending your response.

21: Phrases that may NOT be uttered to another man while lifting
weights:
(a) Yeah, Baby, Push it!
(b) C'mon, give me one more! Harder!
(c) Another set and we can hit the showers!

22: Never talk to a man in a bathroom unless you are on equal
footing: i.e., both urinating, both waiting in line, etc. For all other
situations, an almost imperceptible nod is all the conversation you
need.

23: Never allow a telephone conversation with a woman to go on longer
than you are able to have sex with her. Keep a stopwatch by the
phone. Hang up if necessary.

24: The morning after you and a girl who was formerly "just a friend"
have carnal, drunken monkey sex, the fact that you're feeling weird
and guilty is no reason for you not to nail each other again before
the discussion about what a big mistake it was occurs.

25: It is acceptable for you to drive her car. It is not acceptable
for her to drive yours.

26: Thou shalt not buy a car in the colors of brown, pink, lime
green, orange or sky blue.

27: The girl who replies to the question "What do you want for
Christmas?" with "If you loved me, you'd know what I want!" gets an
Xbox. End of story.

28: There is no reason for guys to watch Ice Skating or Men's
Gymnastics. Ever.

We've all heard about people having guts or balls. But do you really
know the difference between them? In an effort to keep you informed,
the definition of each is listed below.

"GUTS" is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being
assaulted by your wife with a broom, and having the guts to say, "are
you still cleaning or are you flying somewhere?"

"BALLS" is coming home late after a night out with the guys smelling
of perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on
the ass and having the balls to say, "You're next!

2006-05-09T22:57:00.000+12:00

We've all done something in our lives we are ashamed of.
Some of us have fallen for the wrong man,
some have let go of the right woman.
There are those who've humiliated their parents,
and those who've failed their children.
Yes, we've all made mistakes that diminished us and those we love
but there is redemption if we try to learn from those mistakes
and grow.

I saw yellow leaves on my path to uni,
i realised autumn is here again and this reminds me of a legendary saying:
time flies like an arrow
fruit flies like banana=)

Barefooted, i'm always sad that I cant even afford a pair of shoes, until I saw someone with no leg.

Hydro zorb

A cold drink for the thirsty
A vigorous wash for the unclean
A revolution for the oppressed masses
A terrific way to end the first 8-month stay in NZ.

farewell

Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go, let them go.
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well, fare you well.
Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
