The Muslim stands submitting to Allah 17 times a day, bows 34 times a day, kneels 34 times a day and prostrates 34 times a day. ALLAHU AKBAR is uttered at least 6 times in every prayer unit.This means that ALLAHU AKBAR is repeated more than 100 times everyday,3,000 times a month,1 million times in 25 years. Prayer waters faith,reinforces beliefs, and strenghten the believer.
One client called me this morning. After a brief discussion and proposing the price, suddenly he said :
“I’m sorry, I thought freelancers work for free.”

Low crime don't mean no crime!
English cyclist Greg Browning was on a grandscale cycling trip from London to Sydney, almost 30,000km when his bike got stolen at an Orchard Road shopping mall. He was shocked because as he says:
‘My first reaction was of disbelief. I’ve been in so many countries where people said I would get robbed, and then this happened in Singapore, which I was told was one of the safest places in the world.’
This truly brings home the message by our local police: “Low crime doesn’t mean no crime.”
Sorry mate. I hope some marketing department from a local bicycle company chances upon your story and offers you a free bike, in exchange for some feelgood publicity. If that doesn’t happen, you can always buy a 2-wheeler from Carrefour.

books overboard!
i’ve given away 90% of my books, some to my sisters, and the rest to the salvation army. only kept the good ones that i could not possibly do without (eg. the rknarayans & the vsnaipauls, which i adore).
now that the shelves are clear and the bulk is gone, i have a reason to start a new collection of books. so when’s the next booksale?

Book Review // The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield
I bought this book from a ‘3 for $10’ booksale at Punggol Plaza. It was a good read, and as stories go, very well spun. The story sees Margaret Lea, a biographer, enlisted to write the true life story of a well-known writer who’s about to die from a disease. So far the reclusive novelist has evaded answering the true story of her life, but as she spills out her history, it is a story that rivals the magic and wonder of any she’s written before.
An interesting take on twins and their relationships, and a ghost that wasn’t.
A good read to plunge into, evoking a reading experience along the lines of The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova.
