Do tech and confectionery go together?I'm not talking about dunking your mobile phone in cake here. I mean making cookies and cakes and stuff like that in the shape of gizmos.Think about it: you can have a whole 'tech' shop without having a single wire in there at all. Just imagine your neighbourhood computer shop, except the memory cards are thin chocolates, the hard drives …

Transforming tape-deck Soundwave was predictably left out of the Transformers movie for being obsolete in the iPod age - but now he is back and badder than ever.Equipped with an SD memory card slot and MP3 playback capability, no one will ever dare call him outdated again, without risking being obliterated by that plastic laser on his right arm.From being one of the has-beens …

I had a soccer game on at 9 this morning. I was absolutely hyped up about it, because it was my favourite hunting ground (the goalposts are very far apart for such a small court) and I hadn't been there in a while.I was so hyped up I woke up at 5 in the morning raring to go. So I had breakfast and tried to while away the hours reading in bed. Big mistake.When my eyes opened …

After receiving much online criticism, the Malaysian government is now cracking down hard on its bloggers. It is now threatening to hit them with anti-terrorism laws (see the link? I don't), which will allow them to detain bloggers indefinitely, without being charged or put on trial.One prominent blogger, Raja Petra Kamarudin, editor of popular political website Malaysia …

I was guilty of thinking that giving tuition was just a service provided to earn money, no different from, say, customer service.Nope. Tuition teachers are teachers too, a small, perhaps less-qualified subset of the noble profession, but part of it nonetheless.Why am I saying this? Because Veeren invited me over to his house for lunch today to celebrate Teachers' Day. I can't …

Then I went to the kitchen and made myself a bowl of instant noodles.As the noodles slowly cooked in boiling water and seasoning, I took a shower.Once towelled dry, I picked up my bag, stuffed in my storybook, and left the house for the office, plagued the entire time by the …

I can't believe I just signed up for a marathon not 5 minutes after I Google-d it. The fact that it is already 3am and I haven't slept for almost 24hrs may have something to do with it. But really, how do you not sign up for a marathon with scenery like this: It's in October this year, in Snowdonia, Wales. Time to start training!

It was Benedict's turn to fly off yesterday. He was all dressed for the US of A with his white rapper jumpsuit, matching rapper trackpants, t-shirt with rapper design, and newly dyed hair. Seriously, when it comes to prepping for stuff, no one beats Benny. Stuff like going for ping pong training at freakin' 5am in the morning to prepare for a competition.It's funny how you …

...is alcoholic-ly. It's funny how you can just go out with your best buddies with absolutely nothing planned, and as planned, do absolutely nothing, but still have a hell of a time.I would hereby like to apologise to the couples at Clarke Quay yesterday who had a romantic night ruined by our tone-deaf rendition of Yue Fei's Man Jiang Hong and other hits from the Chinese High …

"With great power comes great responsibility." It is a oft-repeated cliche - and a comic-book one at that - but it rings true.The local blogosphere has taken another step forward in breaking away from its image as merely an avenue for personal rants and journals, as illustrated by the Internet buzz over Li Hongyi's e-mail.It illustrates one case where the …

A: Both of them are grossly overhyped.I went down to the COMEX exhibition with Hui Hui, Pei Geok and Shuying today. You would think that being accompanied by three good-lookin' ladies at a gadget fair would be absolute heaven for me.Truth is, I'm used to having more ladies around it wasn't as good as it sounds. One thing, guys don't look at the same gizmos as the gals. I …

The grisly find came from nearby a maternity clinic in India. And if what the police suspect is true, all those dead babies are female - another reason why it sucks to be born female in less-developed countries. Killing female foetuses is a widespread practice in India, and is thought to be the main reason for its skewed sex ratio. If you thought 30 bags was atrocious, listen …

Hope this doesn't happen to Lee Hsien Loong on 9 Aug. His Belgian counterpart, Yves Leterme, sang the wrong national anthem when asked by TV reporters during National Day if he knew Belgium's La Brabanconne. He proceeded to sing France's La Marseillaise instead, an error which was swiftly uploaded onto YouTube for the world to snigger at. *Snigger*It would have been a pretty …
