BYOB

Finally after two years and Malaysians is adapting the BYOB practice. Anybody knows what is BYOB? Bring Your Own Back. It was two years ago when I went to Taiwan, almost every place I go especially 7 Eleven's they practice BYOB. Whatever things my friend and I buy they will ask do you need any plastic bags? If yes, I will have to pay for the plastic bags. As normal human being, these are usually free things and now have to pay for it, they rather not pay.

And now IKEA has adopted this practice and I am so glad. I was walking in IKEA and as usual they have their announcement and when I heard it, I was so glad. IKEA first had the biodegradable plastic bags and now they practice BYOB. Each plastic bag they charge around RM0.20 for one bag, thank gooness I bought myself a very big and deep bag in Bangkok when I was there and it's very useful and everybody loves it. I guess European countries are more aware of their surroundings and the earth is depleting faster then the normal rate. Europeans have already started to use hybrid cars and I wonder when will asian countries too.

Sorry to say, but I find Malaysia is not doing enough to promote enough or create enough awareness to public how the earth is depleting rapidly. Even for the Influenza H1N1, when I was in Bangkok a month back, there were TV commercials every where to inform the public to constantly wash hands and they did their commerciall so funny that the public will remember it. And now even Taiwan have Coco Lee to sing BYOB to create awareness to the younger generations. Here is the video and enjoy, it is in Mandarin though.

Romantic or Practical?

I can't remember whether it was last year or this year that a guy proposed to the girlfriend on a big billboard by the highway and cost him about RM40k for that billboard.  Come to think if it, I think it is romantic but I would rather have that RM40k spent on me, if I'm the girl, what do you think?
Just about that time I have a friend who spent RM50k+ on a diamond ring and the stone is hugh!  First time I saw such a hugh dimond and it was just to proposed to the girl friend.  So when I saw the newspaper that the guy spend RM40k for that billboard, I told myself if I'm the girl I would rather have the RM40k diamond right? Then that one moment billboard.
I guess in the end it still up to the girl, which one would she prefer, something romantic for that moment or something practical that last a lifetime.  I wonder?  But I think I know the answer, most woman loved to be romantic and fancied during special occasions.  This is going to make the guys vomit out a lot of cash and makes the business people very happy.  I still vote for practicality!!! How about you girls and guys?

Maid from Hell

Everyone was talking about this crazy maid and I am sure there are more of these incidents that happen in our local scene.  Who should we blame about the maid we have in our home?  I do came across some really good maid and of course some irresponsible maid too.

I remember when I was in my teens I have this twins friend whos parents work illegally in the US and left them here with two other brothers (one elder and one younger all still schooling) with a Filipino maid.  She take care of them very well and treat them as her own child.  Never thought that would happen but she really took care of them until all of them migrate to US.
The other incident happen to my friend, both he and his wife needs to work and left his baby son with the maid at home.  She only worked for less than 3 months, when my friend reached home after work to found the maid went missing and left his son alone at home.  How dangerous that could be leaving a baby home alone.
Sometimes I just wonder how do we know we have the right maid?  Looks can be deceiving, they can smile with you all day but do whatever behind your back you will never know.  Like what you see in the video the parents were getting suspious over the bruises on the daugher and set up a hidden camera to capture what is happening at home.  And it was really a shocking video to discover, how come one treat a child that way?  It is life we are talking about, with feelings and emotions.  The maid is totally inhuman.

Strings Attached or Not?

I always wonder what would you do if you have fallen into such situation.
I have been working for a boss that expect me to be there almost 24 7, besides that he has a bad reputation and never meant what he had said earlier, but somehow he pays well.  And I have not finish my studies and come out to work.  I have been living my life with so much of cash working for this boss.  But the only bad thing was I am practically living a life like a puppet, have to do whatever he says and whenever he wants to meet me even during weekends.
Now the real questions come.
  1. Should I continue to stay and work for this boss and live a life like a puppet controlled by him and do whatever he request but enjoy the cash flow I'm getting.  Or
  2. Should I find a new job and start a fresh and go through the hardship for few months until everything is stable and yet have my life back.
What should i do?

Sexual Harassment

When you see the word "Sexual Harassment", woman are most likely cross your mind that they are the victims. But how about man? What I'm about to tell you really discuss me in all ways.

I came across this person, Mr. X through my close friend who was working for him. (Bear in mind "WAS" is being used here) Since I'm so close to this friend of course he would introduce his boss to me. What I notice this Mr. X only employ good looking guys to work for him. Besides that he expect his staff to stay around even after work to go dinner and movies with him.

This Mr. X turn his house to be the office and little do these good looking know that they are walking into a trap.

Case 1:
Ask the newly employed staff to go to his house to work. After awhile in the house alone with him, he started his move on the new staff, saying he is very good with massage and wanted to massage for him since he been working to hard. As any other straight guy would do...reject his offer. Of course plan A don't work, plan B is coming up next. Offer the new staff for a facial mask, once all is done while waiting for the mask to dried, massage is back on the track again. Since now the guy can't do much he actually removed his tee and start massage his back while he has sitting on this guy's butt and leaning his groin area in close contact. I was really upset and angry that Mr. X is actually taking advantage of these people and misused his authority as a boss.

Case 2:
Working late at his home and there is not much of a public transport from Mr. X house. He would actually ask this staff to stay overnight. Since he convert his home into a office, the only room that could rest or sleep is his room, "mouse trap". First thing in the morning this guy wake up with his back facing upwards and noticing that Mr. X was actually on top of him. Using back the same trick, massage. His so called professional massage, wearing just his boxer leaning against his staff butt again. His staff has already reject his offer and yet he continues to do it. His staff does not dare to push too hard as he is afraid that he might fall and besides that lose his job.

To some people Mr. X seems like a nice person but I guess most of us knows what kind of person he is. Now I'm trying very hard not to let him lay his dirty hands on my friends anymore. Just because he has money doesn't mean he can have things his way.

Besides that he does have a bad mouth, whoever quit he will tell the rest of the world how bad that staff was but in actual fact people quit because of his sexual harassment. It does take some courage for these guys to relate their experience to us.

This Mr. X should be punished for what he has done. This is only two case I'm saying and I'm sure there are more.

Graffiti

I wonder if you ever take Putra LRT and pass by Pasar Seni and look down at the river bank and marvel by the graffiti that was painted on the wall of the river bank? I always like to look at them as I think it actually beautified and spice up the river bank that is so plain and dead. More over the LRT do stopped by at Pasar Seni and you do have a few minutes to look and be marveled by the graffiti.

Just recently I saw the wall has been repainted back to one big piece of white wall that does not bring life to the river bank. These are beautiful graffiti and not ugly scribles on the wall, why take away the identity that people have created and it is beautiful to look at which I think it can be another part of tourist attraction that calls the "graffiti river" that people will come and look at these artisticly beautiful graffiti.

The only graffiti wall that I saw recently at the Pasar Seni LRT station is the image below when I was on my way to Pudu to take a bus to Selama, Perak. I quickly took my mobile to take this image to preserve it as I know in no time, the graffiti will be painted over. If Malaysia have such talents, why not make it part of the growing Malaysia!

Coffee...Like It or Hate It?

Was having a meeting with my client and the usual place to meet as a freelancer like me would be places that serve coffee, be it Starbucks, Coffee Bean or just a simple place like mamak is always the best choice.

I always wonder why people likes coffee so much until they can't live without coffee. I do know a few people who are so addicted to coffee that if they don't take coffee their hands will shiver or feel uneasy the whole day. I guess it is the caffeine has the stimulating effect on human beings that is why people get addicted to it.

When I was young, always hear people say drink coffee will actually make you stay awake at night as the caffeine will take effect. So I took coffee to stay awake just to do my revision as exam is just around the corner and to my surprise, I sleep like pig till next morning and nothing was done. That is when I found out that caffeine has no effect on me.

And do you know the most expensive coffee bean could cost as much as $600 a pound or $50 a cup and it is actually comes from droppings (shit), It is from Asian palm civet mainly in Indonesia. It seems like these civet will actually eat the coffee berries, as the bean will actually been process and comes out from the rear end. Some how this process makes the bean taste better I guess. I'm not a coffee person so I have no idea.

If given a chance to drink from the rear end coffee would you try it? I just might, to taste how good it is that comes out from the rear end.

HELP!!!

Few years back, someone pop a question to me which it took me awhile to answer. And now I'm going to ask you the same question my friend asked me few years back.

While you were driving and you saw an terrible accident and you are the only person closes to the incident, would you actually stopped and help the victim or should I say the stranger, as he/she is all bloody.

The friend who pop the question to me said NO, simply because the victim might get his car all dirty with blood stain. But I guess it is not that easy to just help send someone to the nearest hospital or clinic. There is just too many things to consider before we actually helped someone who is injured.

Actually I'm still thinking and I don't have a solid answer to the question my friend asked. I guess it all depend on the situation and bad he/she is injured. I do know, if someone is seriously injured, is best not to move him/her too much. I guess watching Discovery channel do help in time like this.

I did came across an accident which I was in-shock I did not respond and drove off. The accident involved a young man knocking and old man on motorcycle and flew across the opposite direction of the road. I was thinking why the traffic so slow and as I was about to reach the cause of the jam I saw this old man lying on the road with a patch of blood stain all around the head area. I pass through it and went to work. Up till now I still wonder, whether the old man live to tell his story or not?

Whale Of A Catch For Deep-Sea Fishermen

GEORGE TOWN: Four fishermen had a huge New Year’s surprise when an unexpected visitor swam into their nets, 10 nautical miles off the coast of Teluk Bahang.

The group was deep-sea fishing near Pulau Kendi when a 7m-long whale shark got entangled in their trawl nets at 3am yesterday.

“We didn’t know what was in the net, so two of us pulled it up and saw the shark.

“In my 30 years of being a fisherman, I have never seen this. I didn’t even know what species it was,” said fisherman Keh Chai Yang, 52.

They returned to shore with the shark at 5.30am.

Keh said they had informed the state Department of Fisheries of the two-tonne whale shark and would surrender the fish to them.

The whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is a filter feeding shark that is the largest living fish.

The slow-moving creature is known for its playful character and poses no harm to humans.

Fishermen Who Caught Whale Shark Maybe Fine

GEORGE TOWN: The four fishermen who caught a juvenile whale shark by accident on New Year’s Day may be fined – the fish is an endangered and protected species.

Penang Fisheries Department director Mohd Najib Ramli said statements had taken from the four and forwarded to the department’s legal unit in Putrajaya for further action.

“It is up to the unit. They may be compounded for catching the fish,” he said.

Mohd Najib said deep-sea fishermen should immediately release endangered or protected marine wildlife that got entangled in their nets.

He said fishermen should be alert and ready to act quickly to release such wildlife.

“They should not leave it in the net.

“If the fish or animal had died while in the net, the Fisheries Department must be notified,” he said in an interview.

On Friday, the shark was caught in fishermen’s trawl nets 10 nautical miles off Teluk Ba- hang.

The 7m-long fish got entangled in the nets at 3am. The four fishermen later returned to shore in Teluk Bahang, with the fish, at 5.30am.

The two-tonne whale shark was surrendered to the state Fisheries Department and hauled to the tuna landing port in Batu Maung by fishing boats on Friday eve- ning.

It was transported to the Fisheries Research Institute (FRI), where it was buried at 3.20pm yesterday – minus its fins and part of its tail.

Najib said the parts cut off would be sent to the Turtle and Marine Ecosystem Centre (Tumec) in Terengganu for research.

“In about one month, we will take out the whale shark’s bones and send them to Tumec where they will be put on exhibition,” he said.

The whale shark (Rhincodon typus) is a filter-feeding shark known for its playful character.

It is the largest living fish that poses no harm to humans.

Four Whale Shark Fishermen Could Escape With Warning

GEORGE TOWN: The four fishermen who caught a juvenile whale shark by accident on Jan 1 might only be given a warning if their claims that they had no intention of catching the endangered fish are true.

Penang Fisheries Department director Mohd Najib Ramli said the department’s legal adviser would investigate the fishermen’s claims before determining the next course of action.

“It would normally take about three days for the compound directive from the headquarters but not in this case as this is a bit more complicated.

“We must make sure the whale shark was not caught intentionally,” he said in a telephone interview yesterday.

Citing an example of a similar case a few months ago, Mohd Najib said the fishermen were let off with a warning after the legal officer found that the catch had been unintentional.

Mohd Najib also said fines imposed by the department varied but would not exceed a maximum of RM30,000.

Fisherman Keh Chai Yang, when contacted, said it would be unfair to them if they are fined because they were not aware that the whale shark had become entangled in the net.

“It was only when we tried to pull up the net that we saw the fish but it was already dead. If we were to leave it in the sea, the carcass would surely pollute the water.”

Keh said they were already bearing the cost of repair for the net which was damaged when pulling the two-tonne whale shark up to the shore.

“Some of our fishing equipment was also damaged,” he said, adding that he hoped the authorities would be fair to them.

The 7m-long fish was caught in the fishermen’s net about 10 nautical miles off the Teluk Bahang coast.

As you can see these articles from The Star newspaper, how absurd? Fishermen who fishes all his life and does not know what he catches. I guess I have been watching too much TV and at least I know what a whale shark is and look like.

I guess Astro did a very good commercial and it even makes a Makcik that stays away from the city knows so much. General knowledge is really important at least it won't get you in trouble like those fishermen.



Beggar

Was having dinner with my friend, and suddenly there is this huge blind man slowly approaches. But before he reaches out table, I realise something fishy. I noticed that the huge blind man only approaches table that actually have people, those without, he just skipped them.

Me and my friends finally decided to test it out before he really approaches. We keep very quiet as though we are not there and yet he approach our table and keep asking for money. We have been dining there quite some and the same thing happens over and over again. So you think he's fake or not? Only he knows.

And of course sometimes people beg because he/she was being force too. I use to work in Ipoh Road for three years and there is the old lady keep asking people for money. Keep asking for RM1, she would not settle anything less than RM1. During then I was actually working in the same company with my aunt and she ask the old lady why is he begging for money? She answer "Need money for food" and my aunt buy her lunch and not giving her a single cent.

After awhile, we found out that she actually begged the money for her son to go Genting and gamble it off. That is totally wrong but I guess she does not have a choice because if she did not begged enough her son would bash her up with bruises all over her face.

Sometimes it is just hard to judge what is right to do here. As for the so call blind man, nobody know what is the reason he is faking it or he is really blind which he didn't do a good job to convince me that he is blind. As for the old lady, if she don't begged enough money, she will get beating and if she begs enough, she would actually spoiled her son and if we give, we are indirectly helping his son to gamble and if we don't give this poor old lady will get the beating.

To give or not go give?

Dog That Shoplifts

MURRAY (Utah): A thief remains at large after pulling off a daring heist - in the pet food aisle.

Surveillance video at a supermarket in this Salt Lake City suburb caught a dog shoplifting, KSL-TV reported on Wednesday.

The video showed the dog walking in the front door of Smith's Food & Drug in Murray, and heading straight to Aisle 16, the pet food aisle, where it grabbed a bone worth US$2.79 (RM9.81).

The thief wasn't even perturbed by a face-to-face confrontation with store manager Roger Adamson.

"I looked at him. I said 'Drop it!'" Adamson said. "He looked at me, and I looked at him, and he ran for the door and away he went, right out the front door." - AP

After reading this article that was published on THE STAR newspaper on Saturday 27 December 2008. I was thinking to myself, is it really the economics getting that bad as what the economist has predicted until dog have to shoplift in the supermarket? As the jobless rates is going to increase even more in 2009 as recession might hit again.

How long is this going to last and is everyone prepared for this hit in our economy. Without money, it is just hard to survived in this crazy urban city and even more so for those who have a family to take care of. No matter when the recession is it coming or when is the exact time. But it is better to get ourselves prepare for it and it is going to hit big.

One Utama vs Mid Valley

One Utama
Little Drummer Boy was the theme for One Utama last year. Though this Little Drummer Boy is the Biggest Drummer Boy I've seen so far. All around it are cute Little Drummer Boy and of course stalls that sells items and gift for Christmas. I was beautifully layout with the piano keyboard as part of the design that makes the Little Drummer Boy goes up and down.

This year, One Utama is doing for Alice In Wonderland There for Christmas, or should I put it as Alice In Winter White Wonderland? There is so many characters in Alice In Wonderland and they only use the Soilder Cards as the theme.

As you can see here, they are trying to create a maze garden here and it actually took up a lot of space from putting more stalls to cheer up this place.

Very simple lit Christmas Tree, white and beautiful and accompanied by the white spade behind to link it back to the theme.

This is an idea, which I never thought of. Playing cards to decorate the Christmas tree and actually it looks good. That just give me an idea, probably next time I can use Mahjong to decorate the Christmas tree and I'm sure parents would love it.

Close up on the Christmas tree with playing cards and it looks cool. Since playing cards can be decorations for Christmas tree, so many ideas are running through my head. Getting a better and clearer picture in decorating a Chrismas tree with theme. I'll definitely doing it when I own a place of my own.

Mid Valley
This was Mid Valley 2007 Christmas decorations, the setting was like autumn by the lake with a lot of tall long grass all around the stage. Very beautifully lit cocoon like lantern.

This year Mid Valley is doing a circus theme for Christmas, and surprisingly they did it quite well. Just never thought Christmas and Circus goes hand in hand. Some how Mid Valley manage to pull if off nicely. Not too much and yet it emits the Christmas mood, playful and joyful.

If you were to look closely, there are animals all around the stage from bear, to horse, lions, so on and so forth.
I like this extremely call Christmas tree fill with candy like ornaments. Not too much just nice for the occasion.

Colourful tent and Merry-Go-Round stall all around the ground floor. Makes the whole theme more interesting and whole. Just like walking into a Circus theme park. All the stalls were selling gifts for Christmas.


While walking I came across this beautifully decorated cart with a puppet inside. It is too bad that there isn't any real puppet show, if not I'm sure it is going to be very interesting.

So, what do you think? Who has the best Christmas decoration this year? I personally would go for Mid Valley. As I find they put a lot more effort in making it happen. Wonder what would your choice be?

Nice Toilet With Stupid Statement

Last weekend I was working as a freelancer for a friend of mine in Sunway Pyramid. It has been awhile I have stepped into Pyramid, and now I've spend 2 days there for work. After refurbishment the toilets definitely look fabulous but there are a few things I find it so funny. "This wash basin area is monitored by CCTV for crime deterring purpose" as you can I took the picture at the wash basin area with a big mirror on the right side of the basin and it reflects the all the way to the urinal area. The CCTV is aimed at the big mirror so that it actually monitored the whole toilet instead just the wash basin area. Does the management thinks we are stupid? And where is the privacy in the toilet? We, guys are being monitored as we pee, how nice!

This is even more riduculous, "Waterless Urinal" look at the smaller prints below "Press to wash yourself only", hello!!! when you stand at the urinal, isn't it obvious that only you are using it and no other people. Why are there putting the small prints "Press to wash yourself only", who's willy are you going to wash besides yours? What a statement?! I think Sunway Pyramid should definitely do something about it. It was really a shocker when I see all these silly things they put in such a nice toilet.

Cruel Intention

Once upon a time, I heard story that would never happen in my lifetime but only in movies and dramas you watch in TV. Listening first hand of this story from the deceased sister really shows me that, all kind of people do live among us, wolf in sheep skin.

The story was about this young couple who fell in love with each other in their college years. But as time goes by, the girl was actually demanding the boyfriend to help her with her assignments. Seems like the girl was not really of a bright student and yet she wanted to get a scholarship from the university. Instead of working very hard for the scholarship, she worked very hard to force the boyfriend to do her assignments for her.

Eventually when the guy refuse to do, she would actually get mad and beat the boyfriend and force him to her assignments for her in order for her to get her scholarship. As you can see that, the guy loved her very much and would give in and help her to do her assignments for her. One fine day, the boyfriend has meet with an accident and broke his arm and couldn't even do his own homework. But because he loved her so much, he would again help her to do her assignments despite his own condition as she would actually beat him if he refuses.

When the day comes and she got her scholarship, she actually have the guts to actually tell the guy's family that she actually love his son for his talent and not him in person. As the guy heard it and he got so depress and upset, finally he couldn't take the pain anymore and committed suicide. It is a sad ending for the guy. With no remorse and no tears shed, she moved on her live with her scholarship.

After listening to such story, I never knew such person existed. I do know people who manipulate others but to that extend that could cause someone live. Sometimes i just wonder should this kind of people live among us, but I guess there are definitely monster among us who is dress in human skin and live among us. I guess we need to be extra caution when it comes to friendship and relationship.

The Future Is Near

Is the future or sci-fi movies we see, is just a step away from our daily lives. Technologies are advancing, everything seems possible nowadays. I am to share with you how technologies have advanced, practically everything is wireless and paperless. I guess there are pros and cons in everything we do. I just wonder whether this advancement is being useful or not?

This is what Microsoft have created and it is really cool. You can just download image from you camera by placing on top of the screen, order your F&B through the screen even pay through the screen. You practically don't have to move around to ge things done. Is this good or bad? As technologies getting more advance and we human getting more lazy because everything is just at our finger tips.

Blog Action Day - Poverty

I've been busy for the past few days and haven't got the time to actually surf the internet for interesting sites and catching up on other blogger. Finally I have time and came across this topic "Blog Action Day - Poverty" in Emila's Emila Illustrated Blog and Nessa's Mumblings blog. Seems like I'm two days behind schedule, but who cares it is for a good course and I'm going to blog about it too.

I did a blog called Mud Cookies and it is about how the third would countries people are surviving by selling and eating this mud cookies. Of course there are stories around, how a country is suffering from poverty and by listening first hand from a close friend of mine who came back from mission trip to Mumbai, India. I'm not there to witness it but by just listening to the stories it is as good as being there, and it just bring tears to my eyes and pain to my heart. Suffering most are the children living in the dumpster.

Just a few weeks back, a dinner gathering with my relatives had brought me to this World Vision, Malaysia attention. It actually helps the needy children around these few countries like India, Indonesia, Lebanon, Thailand and Vietnam. With this website, you can actually sponsor as many children as you wish, with a minimum of RM50 a month for a child. I'll be doing my part soon and I hope you too will join me.

But of course there are other countries as well, that if you would like to involve it the visit the World Vision main website.


Sick In The Head

Just a few weeks back, shocking news hit the headlines of some local newspapers. Husband and wife beat to death with helmet and broomstick. What was more shocking is, it involved two families and even the family members like their children as well. What was the reason that the families beat each other to death, to get rid of bad luck or negative vibes?

Who would do such a thing to resolve their problems? Almost everybody rely on religion to help them to storm their way through their problems or bad times. But what made them believes in some occults? Is it when a person who is in desperate needs, when any religion approaches, it seems like a way out even to do some crazy things like beating the hell out of you, or even having sex with the medium himself?


What is it that they are thinking in their heads? How could they believe in such a absurd religion? I guess when a person is vulnerable, it is always easy to get their attentions. Besides that, I also respect the leader of the occult that he, one person could actually convince the whole group of people that the things he does are right in the eyes of God. There was a case in the United States where the occult leader managed to convince the whole group of people to commit mass suicide.

Where did he get the power to do it? Or simply the people who followed him have weak mind and vulnerable, easy target for the occult groups. Sometimes I just wonder why these people have to walk such a path. Isn't there any more other ways to get you in the better situation or a better life then to believe in something that is totally absurd?

Prejudice


When I look at this commercial, it always reminds me of how human can be so prejudice and unfair. As I did mention in one of my earlier post about “Beautiful People”, how they get away with things and this is a very good example.

Why do we pre-set a standard on everything before we even understand or know it? The world has a standard and do we need to follow the world standard or you set a standard for the world to follow. Is never an easy task to change everyone’s perception towards something they have believed in for years but I think is worth trying.

Because of the world standard it has actually pushed some of these people to move to extreme to get themselves in shape. Some even resort to unhealthy ways to slimmed down. If people who are fat but healthy, what is wrong with that? But when one try to be slim and yet not healthy, what is the point? Health is more important then anything.

Eat To Change The World

Found one good reason for being a vegetarian, to save our mother earth, nothing to do with religion or getting slimmer but purely to preserve the environment. I guess the main thing is we got to stop eating fast food. That is the hardest part as I love fast food. And those of you who knows me best, knows which fast food chain is my favorite. Why I say starting with fast food? I will just slightly elaborate the situation.

Fast food chain is expending to feed the demand of the market as the population grows.
So with this demand, we need to have more cows to be slaughter to produces beef patty for consumption. Where do we house all the cows? We need to cut down trees to build ranches to house the cows. One more information I’ve is that the cow dropping produces Methane (CH4) gas that is five times worst than Carbon Monoxide (CO2). Just Carbon Monoxide (CO2) itself already enough to destroy the ozone layer can you imagine with Methane (CH4)? To produce beef for consumption, thousand or even millions of cows are needed. Can you imagine how much Methane gas has produced to destroy the ozone layer? This is just the base of the problems, as I’ve not even mention the factory side and transportation to the outlet and supplies to the stalls. All these uses up energy and resources that would easily contribute to the ozone layer depletion.

Besides the ozone layer depletion, when trees were cut down, the production of oxygen are being cut down too and yet the population of human kind keeps increasing. And the air qualities nowadays had dropped compared to last time. With poor air qualities, a lot of sicknesses are bound to happen. I know it sound ridiculous to actually follow exactly what the environmentalist do but it is a step we got to take, a step to save out Mother Earth. The choice is in our hands. We can’t change things with just blink of an eye, it might take months or even years to change one habit, but at least some effort has been made. As the world temperature increases, catastrophes bound to happen. When that happens, everything is too late.

For those of you who don’t really know what exactly Alzheimer’s is, just let me briefly explain it to you. In its most common form, it afflicts individuals over 65 years old, although a less prevalent early-onset form also exists. Alzheimer's is a degenerative and terminal disease for which there is no known cure. In the early stages, the most commonly recognised symptom is memory loss, such as the difficulty to remember recently learned facts. Earliest occurring symptoms are often mistaken as being noncritical age-related complaints, or forms of stress. As the disease advances, progressive symptoms include confusion, anger, mood swings, language breakdown, long-term memory loss, and the general withdrawal of the sufferer as his or her senses decline. Gradually, minor and major bodily functions are lost, leading ultimately to death.

With just a few clicks here n there and you’re already doing charity work and Caring.com offers health information you needed.
