M1 enters fixed broadband market with speeds of up to 100Mbps

SINGAPORE, 4 August 2008 – Singaporeans will now be able to cruise the information superhighway with a new fixed broadband service operated by M1.

Offering a mobile broadband service since 2006, M1 will become a full fledged broadband player when it introduces M1 Fixed Broadband from tomorrow.

M1 Fixed Broadband is available to all homes with cable access points or which are cable ready. The service is capable of achieving download speeds of up to 100 Mbps and upload speeds of up to 2 Mbps.

“M1 is repositioning itself for the future as it develops new businesses anchored on our core competencies. The launch of M1 Fixed Broadband is an important step in our planned transformation from a single-play mobile operator to a dynamic multi-play operator with interests in both the mobile and fixed sectors.

It looks exciting. The prices also look competitive. I’m M1 mobile user, kekeke. But I will wait and see how the response is from the public first. By the way, I checked out the link listed there at 0514am, there is no relevant info there……

This is bad! I like Morgan Freeman. I like his acting. He is one of the few veterans that I really like. Though I doesn’t always got the main leading role, he always gave his best to the audience.

Morgan, get well soon!

I wonder how much time the owner spended to “decorate” the Singapore flag…

Dr Rohana Ariffin and her former student Rachel Samuel, from Malaysia, interviewed 90 rapists in 4 prisons in Malaysia to find out their perception and attitudes towards women, sexual history and experiences. Their findings were published in a handbook, Rapist & Rape – Who & Why.

Can normal people ever understand why rapists rape?

According to the reports below, seems like Zimbabwe President Mugabe is coming to Singapore for medical treatment. So, which hospital is he heading to? Mount E? Gleneagle? Woowoo, it must be damn lots of money…

Look at their bodies, look at their curves, look at the muscles! I think this is why some people love sportsmen, sportswomen.

I am referring to what Dawn had said in this reports:

Quoted:

“I apologise to all my readers. I didn’t do this intentionally,” she said.

She said that at the time she posted the entries, she didn’t really think citations were necessary.

“It didn’t cross my mind that I was doing something wrong,” she said.

Why it sounds so similar to the famous “This is an honest mistake. Let’s move on.” sentence to me?

Anyway, I feel that it is so lame to “didn’t cross my mind that I was doing something wrong”. If you read, you digest, you rephrase your words/sentences, you write your articles, people may think that you copy the idea, but it is still acceptable by many. But copying word by word? Sentence by sentence? That is so stupid, and kind of insulting the readers.

THIS IS SO FREAKING TERRIBLE!

Grigory Toporov’s wife was not happy with his penis and performance on bed, so he went for a operation to fit in a penis extension. Then after that, the extension broke when he was having sex with his wife. Now the wife wants to divorce……

Stupid fella! When girls love you no more, they can come up with all kinds of reasons, silly reasons!

I told her I would get a new one but she wasn’t having any of it. She said she was fed up with my failures in bed and wants a divorce,
