Low class sick people eat cat

I found out this news on google page.

Malaysians on lookout for cat-eaters
Sunday Feb 25 16:19 AEDT

AP - Animal lovers are keeping a close eye on cats and dogs in a southern Malaysian state amid fears that foreign labourers have made meals out of missing pets."It might be normal for people from Vietnam or Myanmar (Burma) to cook cats and dogs, but this is definitely not accepted here," Shahrir told the New Straits Times.http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=229274


I don't know about Vietnam. But in Burma,99.99% of people never eat cat and dog meat.(In fact Burmese are not a great meat eater and many never try beef and pork traditionally ) But I must confess there are a few who steal other's cats and dogs for meat. It is relatively common among low socio-economic class. I used to live in Yangon 8 mile close to a local police residential houses where poor police men's families live. We lost dogs and cats frequently. Eating cats and dogs is also a habit of some ethnic minors living in mountainous areas, but not true for the majority of Burmese. There is no such foods available in restaurants across Burma.

I don't know who Shahrir is.But he is patronizing Burma, showing that he has got an atrophic brain prematurely.When I see those south east Asian nations from Europe, these are more or less the same in terms climate, cultures and traditions.

Now I am in new place



Early this month, I moved from London to a small town in midland. It is not far away from Leicester. Although it is only 100 miles away from capital, people look frirendly and relaxed. At work it is not too much busy so far compared with the 980 bedded hosptial where I used to work in London. But I feel I do need to learn many things and adapt to the new place after living and working in a big cosmopolitan city for some years.London is OK, I know most of the things and I know about people whatever they are good or bad. At least I can guess. I know many town centres. Here is the different. I still don't know yet. One interesting thing is many doctors working here are moving between other midland cities. It is only me who came from London. Working system is a little bit different.Differernt forms.. different routines....hmmmmm

Scottish wolves and Balancing theory

After being completely destroyed over 2 centuries ago, Wolves are welcome again to Scotland to balance deer over population. According to news, there are over 500,000 deers in highland.

Balancing theory is universal truth I think. Nature never allows unbalanced situation or unequal situation to grow for a long time.Nature never allows any extreme activities. People enjoy too much freedom in sex. Balancing action of venereal diseases and HIV emerged. World's population has grown alarmingly. This would be stopped or reduced by man-made global warming. People travel too much. Unusual viral illnesses appeared. A few century ago, Asia was invaded by Europeans. Now Chinese and Indians are making their homes in the west, starting to control the larger area of the world. Britain's richest man is from India. British health care system and US IT industry have been under a big influence of Indian people. Last year China exported goods worth 27 billion£ or something like that to the UK. Britain dispatched ?27 million tonnes of rubbish to china where people need to expand land. I don't mean Britain's main export is rubbish. The nation has been doing well with its service industry. We don't need to own automobile companies or too many industries which are not environmental friendly, causing global warming. Am I right?

Medium caffeine intake "does not affect pregnancy"

These days I've been pretty busy. This is my quick post about relationship between caffeine and pregnancy.

Drinking moderate amounts of caffeine during pregnancy does not lead to premature births or underweight babies, Danish scientists said on Friday.

Up to three cups of coffee a day does not seem to have any negative impact on the baby or the pregnancy.

Earlier studies that looked at the impact of moderate caffeine consumption during pregnancy have produced mixed results. Some showed no difference while others suggested too much caffeine could lower average birth weight by 100-200 grams (3.5-7 ounces).

Beckham and his new job in LA



A landmark 250 million-dollar, five-year deal has made David Beckham the world’s highest paid footballer. The deal with Los Angeles Galaxy will make Beckham the highest-paid player in major league Soccer

Beckham has turned down offers from Italy, France and the Premiership to take up a £128million, five-year deal in Major League Soccer, a move some believe rules out any hope of an England recall.

Some facts about Nelson Mandela


* Mandela became the oldest elected President of South Africa when he took office at the age of 75.

* He speaks fluent Afrikaans, a language disliked by many black people because of its roots in colonialism.

* Mandela is known for his fondness of Batik textiles. He is often seen wearing Batik shirts, known as "Madiba shirts", even on formal occasions.

* In 2003, Mandela's death was incorrectly announced by CNN when his pre-written obituary (along with those of several other famous figures) was inadvertently published on CNN's web site due to a lapse in password protection.

* The Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, wants a statue of Nelson Mandela installed on the north terrace of Trafalgar Square, although thus far he has run into opposition.

* As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, Dick Cheney voted against a congressional resolution calling for Mandela's release from prison. Years later, Mandela would call Cheney a "dinosaur".

* Mandela spoke in the Olympics "Celebrate Humanity" campaign with the words:

For seventeen days, they are roommates.
For seventeen days, they are soulmates.
And for twenty-two seconds, they are competitors.
Seventeen days as equals. Twenty-two seconds as adversaries.
What a wonderful world that would be.
That's the hope I see in the Olympic Games.

* According to the Time 100, he is one of only four people in history to have shaped both the 20th century and the early 21st. The other three are Bill Gates, Pope John Paul II, and Oprah Winfrey.

* The Nelson Mandela Invitational charity golf tournament, hosted by Gary Player, has raised over R 20 million for childrens charities since its inception in 2000.
