I almost became a Coke Zero junkie until when I've discovered the horror behind one of the latest Coke Cola products to be newly introduced and imported to Singapore...You see, what amazes me was the 0% nutritional table shown on the bottle. 0% calories, 0% fats, 0% sugar..etc. My sister claimed that if that's the case, isn't there no difference between the intake of water and Coke Zero? Without h
The following is a press release from Americans for a Safe Israel I received by email today.

I'm not really in favor of TV for my babies, though I don't feel that anyone needs to agree with me. I just don't like TV much myself, and only get about two channels (except, occasionally) so its really not that much of an issue.But, this past Saturday I'd been thinking about 1970's Sesame Street, and I get restless and anxious when its 6pm and the sun has already been long gone for two hours, and I was exhausted from the Christmas Store, and home alone again with the baby because of the Christmas store, and one thing led to another and I decided it was time: I popped in a video. My old copy of Christmas Eve on Sesame Street, circa 1978. Asher's first TV show.He has actually seen TV before, but its always been the occasional Cubs game or something I had on in the background, nothing he ever intended to pay attention to. This was the first time I ever said "let's watch TV" and selected Children's Programming.At first, I was astounded. (After I dragged him back several time

Remember the cute little furry civet cats that gave us the nasty little bug called severe acute respiratory syndrome, or SARS back in 2003? People are still consuming them, albeit in smaller numbers than at the height of the SARS outbreak 4 years ago.
Why me??
Although the possession and selling of endangered or wild animals, including the civet cat is considered illegal in China, a recent visit by CNN’s Chief Medical Correspondent, Dr Sanjay Gupta, to a marketplace in China revealed that they are still being sold, either discreetly or blatantly out in the open by dodgy animal traders out to make a quick buck.
Given the association of civet cats with SARS, it is no surprise that possession of the cats is now considered illegal in China. So imagine my surprise when I visited a Chinese marketplace this morning around 5:30 a.m., and immediately walked into a flurry of vendors with these strange-looking cats in cages. As I got a closer look, the vendors became apprehensive and start
As a perfectly fitting adjunct to a post I made earlier railing against American hyper-consumerism, I found this SNL skit on the wire. A nice little “Friday Funny”.
Enjoy your weekend everyone!

Paris is a meat-feasting city — not to say the rest of the world is any different. The French love their food, especially flesh, but slowly, rising in different quartiers across the city like a revival of the arts, the "biologique" producers are opening their doors.
It consumes me, this art of conscientious living, and it is fueled by one image: Mother Earth
I must admit, my stomach joins the choir, moaning as I catch scents through the wafting doorways. But I’m on my way to my own market, a representation of the home I know while traveling, for as a vegetarian on the road, my needs can often be demanding.
Beyond more restaurants, past the ethnic shops of couscous and kebabs, I take another road, where on the corner of a side street I step inside and enter my destination.
La Vie Claire and its homely shop, tucked with the whole goods of any village baker. Small petite tiles decorate the floor as if laid by the shop owner himself, lea
