One Billion To Die Due to Tobacco

World Health Organization has stated that one billion people will die by the end of this century due to tobacco-related diseases.

Not frigthening enough? It may be you OR may not be you but the person next to you OR one of your family members. 1 billion divided by 6 billion people on the face of the earth now = staggering 16%. Every 6 persons, 1 will die.

By the way, it's already killing 5.4 million people every year.

Malaysian government did its part by raising the sin tax on cigarettes, a 25% increase in excise duty. A good way to obtain government revenue. In a way, it may deter people from burning their health away in a slow way. Sad scenario in Malaysia is when tax increases, smugglings increased to avoid paying such tax.

Singapore has banned patrons from lighting up in pubs, nightclubs, karaoke lounge ........ for 99% of the patrons "where else can we smoke in Singapore?"......

Most Important Picture in Malaysia

In recent Altantuya murder case being head in the Malaysian court, the deceased Altantuya's cousin (from Mongolia also) has said that Najib Abdul Razak knew Altantuya (even though Najib denied it). The cousin reiterated that Najib had a dinner together with Abdul Razak Baginda and Altantuya while all 3 of them were overseas on one occasion.

Now how do you prove that? A photo would be sufficient of course. I wonder what would happen if such a photo was submitted to the court as an evidence.

I found it actually.................. here and here (actually a threesome photo).

Un-United Africa at African Union Summit?

Looks like the United States of Africa won't unite after all. As Muammar Gaddafi brought the matter up at the African Union Summit, held at Accra of Ghana, to be discussed or even hope for it to be voted upon, he can continue to dream about it till the cow comes home. Gaddafi has called for the immediate establishment of a single government, foreign policy and army. That's too much to ask for, isn't it?

Some of the feedback on the integrated idea:-
Uganda - backed economic integration but said Africa was too diverse for one government.

Senegal - backed the plans and said a breakaway group could be formed.

Kenya - expressed doubts.

Lesotho - expressed doubts.

Zimbabwe - unity was vital to make the continent truly independent of the West.

Ghana - the question of unifying Africa was not in doubt, but the key issue was how to attain it.

AU Commission - Africans needed to "take the bull by the horns and move towards a new country - Africa".

Rastafarian Dog

What kind of dog is this? Just like a mop. Guarantee it will frighten the daylight out of the children....haha...maybe some adults too.

It's the Rastafarian breed.
One possible reason for this name could be linked to the word "dreadlock". It's just like the unique hairstyle.
If you read Rastafarian in Wikipedia, it will give more references of what Rastafarian is all about.

The Parrot

A woman went to a pet shop & immediately spotted a large, beautiful parrot..

There was a sign on the cage that said $50.00.

"Why so little," she asked the pet store owner.

The owner looked at her and said, "Look, I should tell you first that this bird used to live in a house of Prostitution and sometimes it says some pretty vulgar stuff."

The woman thought about this, but decided she had to have the bird any way.

She took it home and hung the bird's cage up in her living room and waited for it to say something.

The bird looked around the room, then at her, and said, "New house, new madam."

The woman was a bit shocked at the implication, but then thought "that's really not so bad."

When her 2 teenage daughters returned from school the bird saw and said, "New house, new madam, new girls."

The girls and the woman were a bit offended but then began to laugh about the situation considering how and where the parrot had been raised.

Moments later, the woman's husband Keith came home from work.

The bird looked at him and said, "Hi, Keith!"

Legs

A college student needed a small two-hour course to fill his schedule and the only one available was wildlife Zoology.

After one week, a test was held. The professor passed out a sheet of paper divided into four squares. In each square was a carefully drawn picture of a bird's legs. No bodies, no feet, just legs. The test asked each student to identify the birds from their legs. The student sat and stared at the test getting angrier every minute.

Finally he stomped up to the front of the classroom and threw the test on the teacher's desk. "This is the worst test I have ever given." The teacher looked up and said: "Young man, you have flunked the test.

What's your name?"

The student pulled up his pant to the knee showing his legs and said:

"You tell me..."

Hunky Customer Triggers Catfight

When I read the article title, was saying to myself "it cannot be that a handsome bloke caused ladies to fight over him". True enough as reported in Star newspaper:-

"KUALA TERENGGANU: A man, who reportedly looked like a Bollywood actor, walked into a food court for a teh tarik and triggered a brawl among three women that left one woman scalded and another woman's T-shirt ripped open.

Several chairs and tables were damaged during the fight among the women at the outlet in Merega Beris in Kijal, Kemaman on Saturday. The shocked man fled the scene.

It all began when the man walked in alone. Two women at two separate stalls immediately tried to get his attention and lure him over to their stalls. When he stopped to speak with one of the women, her competitor, 21, became so incensed that she marched over to the woman, tore her T-shirt and accused her of being gatal and dressing seductively.

The other woman, 22, immediately grabbed a pan and splashed her attacker with hot water, scalding her. The scalded woman's mother, 46, rushed to her daughter's aid, hurling chairs at her assailant, damaging tables and alarming the other customers, said state Deputy CID Chief Supt Khairi Ahrasa yesterday. He said the scalded woman was now warded at the Kemaman Hospital."
