It is official that Twins, the most successful Hong Kong girl group in entertainment industry, is disbanded. The 2 members, Charmaine and Gillian will go separated way. Twins was formed in 2001 by Gillian Chung and Charmain Choi.

Early this year, since the outbreak of the sex photos scandals with Edison Chen, Gillian Chung’s popularity has been seriously affected. She has since gone into “rest”, or “secret training” for a long long time. Although there has been rumors that Twins would be disbanded, both Charmaine, the other member of the group, and Manny, their manager who single handedly brought the 2 into today’s goddess position in the industry, have come out many times to assure that Twins was still together. However, not anymore.

It is said that Gillian will go to Hollywood to try out there, in movies. She is preparing an audition with Oliver Stone. Charmaine will focus on Hong Kong and China market. Both will stop their singing careers and focus on movies.

I am not a big fans of Twins, but no matter what, I wish them good luck.

Twins拆夥七年緣盡

Son: Dad, why do girls feel so great when they are having sex?
Dad: It’s just like digging nose. Do you feel great when you are digging your nose?

Son: Then why guys always show that they are very uncomfortable when having sex?
Dad: Of course lah, when you are digging nose, it is your nose that feels great, not you finger.

Son: Then why do girls feel so bad when they were raped?
Dad: Son, do you feel good if one day when you are walking on the street, suddenly comes 1 person digging your nose directly? Would you feel great or bad?

Son: Why do girls not having sex when they are having menses?
Dad: Do you still dig your nose if your nose is bleeding?

Son: IC. Then why guys don’t like to use condoms?
Dad: Son, do you put on gloves when you dig your nose?

Happy with your current face, look? Ever think of going for plastic surgery? Afraid that plastic surgery may turn out bad, not the same with what you imagine? How about trying a virtual plastic surgery 1st?

Life Magic is a website that let users trying out different “facial enhancements” online. Users need to register with the site, then upload their own photo to the site. After that, they can proceed to try out the enhancements there. For example, they can try “eyebrow lift”, “forehead enhancement”, “lip augmentation”, and ect.

Too bad, it is only for facial, cannot try breast enhancement……

This Sammy rants about his “disrupted live broadcast of Euro 2008 semifinal, Germany VS Turkey, early this morning”.

STOMPer Sammy was watching the Euro 2008 match, Germany vs Turkey, when the match was interrupted and this message appeared on the TV screen. The STOMPer was livid.

In his email to STOMP today (June 26), he wrote:

“I hate to see this on the TV again and again, especially when I was watching the match early this morning.

“I paid money to watch Euro but the transmission was lost.

“I feel that it is not a good excuse to say feed is inherent from source.”

Another STOMPer, Jackson, wrote in an email, regarding the disruption.

“The exciting end to end match between Germany and Turkey was disrupted several times and we miss at least two of the goals and the last goal the screen was stuck with the replay of Lahm celebrating the goal.

“It was suppose to be an eye opening exciting match as it ended 3 - 2 with the victory going to Germany at the last minute but we missed the Germans’ celebration and Turkey’s desperate fight back in injury time after the match as well and the animated players and managers at the end of the match.

“And most importantly, the goals and the best part of the match.

“Many football fans like me will most certainly have similar thoughts and feel gutted to miss out on the best part of the match, for those with Europass as well as those watching from the Preview channel.

“I am 100 percent sure that my complaint won’t be the last and hope that Starhub can provide better live telecast for the other Euro Semi Final between Russia and Spain and the Euro 2008 Final as well as the upcoming BPL matches, FA and Carling, Copa Del Rey matches and La Liga matches.”

STOMP is contacting Starhub.

Of course, as consumer, we can rant, complain. But, with valid reason and do our homeworks 1st lah. I know Stabhub Sports channels are like sh|t, but don’t just push every blame on Starhub.

The disruption was due to violent storms in Vienna, goondoo! It was disrupted right from the source. Nothing Starhub can help. Read the news report HERE. It is not Singapore only, most fans all over the world were affected.

People, don’t just sit there and complan only. Spend some time, surf some net, read some news, hang around in forums. Don’t be a frog in the well called Singapore. If Sammy spended some time in foreign forums, like those in China, Malaysia, he would have known that the fans there were also affected.

By the way Sammy, how much you lose in that game?

Was flipping through WanBao, the following news caught my attention:

Basically, it is about a 73 years old lady’s unhappy experience with a certain company. On 30th May, she was brought by 4 of her friends to a company located at Bencoolen Street, in the name of attending a siminar (what kind of seminar? health? making money? family?) She only knew that the seminar is about the body shaping undergarments when she was there. The presenter said that the undergarment is product of Japan (”product of Japan” and “made in Japan” are different…). Other than shaping human’s body, adjusting body postures, it also emits negative ions and helps our blood circulations, and good for slimming. The 4 “friends” encouraged her to try the undergarments on the spot. She felt that it was tight. But due to the 4 friends’ strong “encouragement”, she signed an contract and bought 2 sets of the undergarments at S$4488. She did not have enough cash with have. The friends even drove her back home to take her cheque book. Good friends right?

Back home, she put on 1 of the 2 sets once, and felt that it was too tight. The family members felt the sets were too expensive. 1 of them read through the contract, and found that there is a 30 days money back guarantee, as long as the goods are in original package. So they returned to the company on 23rd June and requested money back for 1 of the sets. They encountered difficulties and it dragged for close to 2 hours. There was fierce arguments. Then they called in police. Finally, they got their money, S$2255, back (I assume S$33 is for admin charge kind of stuff?). When the reporter was there and show the staffs his identity, they staffs there were very unfriendly.

Make a guess, how many movies are they going to spoof in this <<Disaster Movie>>?

This is based on a report conducted by Merrill Lynch and Capgemini jointly. It is called World Wealth Report.

In the report, Singapore is number 7 in the HNWI Population Growth, 2006 – 2007 (by Market). HNWI means high net worth individuals. Those taken into accounts in this report are those who own at 1 million US dollars of wealth. The property that the person live in is not taken into consideration.

77000 out of 4.5 millions of population. It mean, there is 1 millionaire among every 60 persons in Singapore. So, there are how many around you?
