Driven to Perfection-Richard Mille

Watchmaker Richard Mille has two new creations inspired by fast cars, architecture and navigation.
The handwinding RM012 Tourbillion has a baseplate/bridge construction crafted from a special inox alloy and is limited to 30 pieces worldwide. It also has the distinction of being the first tubular Richard Mille watch.

This watch is inspired by world-renowned architectural wonders like the Atomium in Brussels and the Louvre (world's largest museum) in Paris.

The RM012 Tourbillion (Platinum version) is priced at RM1,579,556 (US$428,064).
Also, new this year is the RM014 Perini Navi Cup, which is inspired by nautical themes from the sailing world, or as the name tells you, from the sailboats produced by Perini Navi in Viareggio, Italy.

Perini Navi is renowned for producing top class competitive sailboats with the most elegant and artistic designs, and they boast extreme technology and craftsmanship.

The RM014 Perini Navi Cup is priced at RM789,778 (US$214,032) for the Rose Gold, RM825,332 (US$223,667) for the White Gold and RM918,721 (US$248,976) for the Platinum.

Net Phone Calls

For a long time Skype has been the trailblazer for net phone calls. It has won millions of fans because the service is free if you call another Skype user.

Then came other new innovators Jajah, Babble, VoipCheap and Project Gizmo. Jajah launched earlier this summer and claims to offer free global calling with a twist as it allows you to connect two phones via its website.

Yahoo Messenger and MSN Messenger were one of those early birds in the ventures.

Just For A Laugh!

Joke No. 1

A young private sought permission from his Commanding Officer to leave camp the following weekend. "You see," he explained, "my wife's expecting."

"Oh..." said the Officer, "I understand. Go ahead and tell your wife that I wish her luck."
The following week the same soldier was back again with the same explanation: "My wife's expecting."

The Officer looked surprised. "Still expecting?" he said, "Well, well, my boy, you must be pretty bothered. Of course you can have the week-end off."

When the same soldier appeared again the third week, however, the Officer lost his temper. "Don't tell me your wife is still expecting!" he bellowed.

"Yes sir!" said the soldier resolutely, "She's still expecting." "What in heaven is she expecting?" cried the Officer. "Me." said the soldier simply.

Joke No. 2

A young wife, who was becoming frustrated with her young husband constant demands for sex, decides to make a schedule for him, to cut down on the amount of times that they will have to make love for the rest of their marriage.

While getting ready for work, she writes on a piece of paper, "Honey,you know I love you, but your neverending requests for sex are leaving me drained and really tired. So I propose that we only have sex on days that start with the letter 'T', to minimise the frequency of our lovemaking sessions.

Don't be mad at me honey, just understand where I am coming from, and let me know if my request is too demanding of you. "On her way out the door, she uses a refrigerator magnet and sticks the note to the fridge door, hoping that her sex craved husband will be understanding and accepting of her proposal when he reads it. Upon returning home, she glances at the refrigerator and notices that her note has been replaced with a note from her husband that reads, "Baby, I didn't realise that I was putting you under so much pressure and I'm sorry. I accept your proposal and have even taken the extra step of listing at the bottom of this letter, those days starting with the letter 'T' to make sure that we are on the same page.

1. TUESDAY

2. THURSDAY

3. TODAY

4. TOMORROW

P.S. I love you too, and remember it's still TODAY, I am waiting for you upstairs."
