Joke (Private Joke)~ Wound Dressing

Probably only a few people will find this funny.

While waiting for my daughter (who's a nurse) to do my wound dressing, 
and not knowing what time it was to be done, I sent her this Text Message.

Here is an example of reading between the lines.

Our Car ~ The Green Turtle & A Korean Song

Our daughter named our car 'The Green Turtle' because it was green and slow. Well... this sounds like a good song for our car, by our son's favourite group and one of his favourite songs. Check out the meaning of the lyrics in English (scroll down).

After I posted the above paragraph, my wife told me that actually, it was 'The Green Tortoise' and not 'The Green Turtle'. However, I still think it's an appropriate song for our car.

Turtle ~ by Davichi

[Music Bank w/ Eng Lyrics] Davichi - Turtle (2013.04.20)
http://youtu.be/OUu_Vm-0swc


Lyrics ~ Davichi - Turtle

Dear turtle / you won't go far at that speed
On top of that, the road / is far and dangerous
Go after your scars / have closed and healed
I'm serious / then I will let you go
Don't hide don't steal my heart
Lies? your slow, / slow steps
Words that are deep inside my heart
Come to me / Because you have a lot of scars
You have nowhere to go

A sad turtle / You're all alone
Why are you always hiding?
I can't protect you anymore
or love you anymore
It's my heartaching story
It's okay if it's a little late
Just take step by step / slowly

it will be okay
if only a day passes
That's why I tell myself
as if I'm memorizing a charm

Dear turtle, / I see myself when I see you
Tears come and flow / like crazy
A new leaf will bud / Flowers will blossom
The love of my tears / will produce a seed
Words that are deep inside my heart
Come to me / Because you have a lot of scars
You have nowhere to go

A sad turtle / You're all alone
Why are you always hiding?
I can't protect you anymore
or love you anymore
It's my heartaching story
It's okay if it's a little late
Just take step by step / slowly

I will match my steps with yours / which is slower
So that you won't have to cry by yourself anymore
You're always be my / Always be my love
With no place to place its heart / no place to go

It's a sad turtle / (Please don't leave me)
Because you have a lot of scars and alone
Is that why you're hiding alone every day?
I can't protect you anymore / or love you anymore
It's my heartaching story / It's okay if it's a little late
just take step by step / slowly

I've learnt that ~ death can strike anyone at any time

Hi,

No matter... nevertheless... it's still best to try and stay healthy.

I've learnt that, "This just shows that 
death can strike anyone at any time. 
Somehow, it seems that it doesn't 
matter how fit or healthy you are."
~ Age 46 (in 2013), Sheik Alauddin,
former three-time world champion &
Singapore Silat Federation (SSF) 
chief executive officer

SINGAPORE
Former silat world champion Abdul Kadir dies
By Safhras Khan and Gerard Wong
POSTED: 17 Aug 2013 4:27 PM

Kadir, who won the Match Male Class 'E' title at the 5th World Championships in Kuala Lumpur in 1997, died on Friday night, aged 40.

SINGAPORE - The Singapore sports community lost a former world champion on Friday night with the sudden death of retired silat exponent Abdul Kadir Ibrahim.

It is understood that the 40-year-old had collapsed after complaining of chest pains. He was running errands with his wife at the time, after going for a jog.

He was buried on Saturday morning and leaves behind six children, the youngest was born just under a month ago.

Kadir won the Match Male Class 'E' title at the 5th World Championships in Kuala Lumpur in 1997. Two years later, he won the gold medal in the same class at the Southeast Asian (SEA) Games in Brunei.

Singapore Silat Federation (SSF) chief executive officer Sheik Alauddin told TODAY that he is still reeling from the news about his friend who worked as a national coach for a few years after retiring from the sport.

"I received a call from a friend yesterday, and I was in disbelief when he told me the news," the 46-year-old former three-time world champion said, with a heavy sigh.

"And then, one by one, I kept getting calls and messages from friends with the same news. It is a very sad day for the Singapore silat family.

"This just shows that death can strike anyone at any time. Somehow, it seems that it doesn't matter how fit or healthy you are."

Former national fencer Nicholas Fang remembers Kadir as "a great sportsman" as well as "a really nice guy." They had travelled to a few editions of the SEA Games together as part of the Singapore contingent during the late 1990s.

"He was a very fierce competitor but off the mat, he was very warm, genuine and always smiling," said Fang who is now the president of Singapore Fencing and a Nominated Member of Parliament.

Sheik said he will meet up with the SSF Council to discuss what forms of support the national sports association can provide for Kadir's family.

Cabby donates liver to stranger after reading Facebook appeal.

Sick civil servant was counting his last days when cabby responded to an appeal for help

Mr Tong Ming Ming, 34, was on a tea break during reservist training in early March when an SMS and a Facebook post by his secondary school friend Regina Lim caught his eye.

She wrote that a mutual friend's colleague was likely to die within days if he did not receive a liver transplant. The family was urgently looking for a living donor who, among other things, had to weigh 80kg or more. Could anyone please help?

Mr Tong, a big, burly cabby and former police officer, messaged his old friend immediately to find out more.

The patient, civil servant Toh Lai Keng, 43, from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), was a colleague of their mutual friend from their Peicai Secondary School days, Ms Leow Shee Yin.

===.
BACKGROUND STORY

===.
Great gesture

"What can I say? He's a great man. With his kindness and generosity, Ming Ming has shown that even strangers can step forward to save lives." 
Recipient TOH LAI KENG (seated in picture with donor Tong Ming Ming). Mr Tong stepped forward in time after doctors said Mr Toh had a week to live.

It's safe

"The liver can grow back, so I will be fine. As a cabby, there is probably a greater chance of dying in a road accident." 
~ Donor TONG MING MING (standing in picture on right, and below, showing the scar). Before the operation, he underwent extensive interviews to ensure he was psychologically sound, not coerced and no money had changed hands.

===.
LIVING DONOR TRANSPLANTS RARE

Transplants from living donors are still rare in Singapore. There were only 28 such kidney transplants and 10 liver transplants last year and the vast majority of donors were family members or friends of the recipient.

Altruistic organ donations, where the recipient and donor do not know each other, are exceptional.

Liver donations are considered riskier than kidney donations - and are much less common. Demand for livers is also far smaller. As of the end of last year, there were 457 people waiting for kidney transplants and 23 for liver transplants (see chart).

National University Hospital (NUH) transplant coordinator Priscilla Wee told The Sunday Times there are extensive checks by doctors, psychiatrists and medical social workers to ensure that altruistic donors are psychologically sound, not coerced and money is not exchanged. Each case is also assessed by an independent ethics committee.

In the case of bachelor cabby Tong Ming Ming, who donated part of his liver to a stranger, his mother and the friend who knew the recipient were also interviewed.

Donors have a 10 to 15 per cent risk of complications. "However, at NUH, we have not had any deaths or serious complications from any of the donors for adult liver transplants from living donors," said Ms Wee.

The vast majority of organ transplants in Singapore are from dead donors or family members of patients.

YouTube Video on Tailgaters from a Bikers point of view

Bikers, what to do with tailgaters?

I haven't got the answer yet, so I'm still searching,
but here below are the results from my search.

Just an idea. So far, this is what I think a Biker can do.
~ Install a camera pointing to the back.
~ When someone tailgates you, take note of the date and time.
~ Retrieve the video footage, and send it the the Traffic Police with a cover letter.
~ The Traffic Police should handle it from there and give you a reply.

Below are what other Bikers have done.
They are entertaining to watch BUT...
I will NOT recommend those shown here below.

Malay ~ Kalau ada jarum yang patah

===.
Malay Quote

Kalau ada jarum yang patah,
jangan di simpan di dalam peti,
Kalau ada silap dan salah,
jangan simpan di dalam hati.

Malay = English
jarum = needle
peti = box (chest)
silap = error, mistake
salah = wrong
hati = liver (heart)

If a needle is broken,
do not store it in a box.
If you've been wronged,
do not store it in your heart.

Nobody keeps a broken needle.
We normally throw it away.
It's the same with life.
If there are any error and wrong done to you,
do NOT keep it in your heart.

Joy and Peace in Believing

A few days ago, I received a fruit basket and a card with a Bible Quote that sounds like a perfect prayer for the Agnostic Catholic. I like this quote. I searched the internet and the closes version of it was the 'New American Standard Bible' which I've also written below.

Here's what was written in the card.
