Gold Rush



For the first time in history, gold rose above $1,800 per ounce Wednesday, closing at $1,784.

While many people may be having gold fever, financial advisor Sherod Waite said it is important for people to remember to diversify their investments.

"Gold is just one asset class out of 20 or 30 major asset classes we can invest in. So you know the phrase, 'Don't put all your eggs into one basket;'that holds true with gold. You don't want to put too much of your assets or too much of your investment portfolio all in gold," said Waite.

Waite says only 3 to 5 percent of a person's investments should go into precious metals. That is because he says unlike stocks or a bond, gold doesn't pay a dividend.

"It doesn't create an income," said Waite. It is simply an asset that you are holding. The only value of that asset is what somebody else might buy it from you for."

Waite also said before people rush out to spend all their money on gold they need to keep in mind that the gold market can be volatile too. He said there was an extended period of time the gold price didn't go anywhere.

Share the Ummph!



Here in Malaysia, tea is more than just a drink. Tea both creates and complements the social situation whether it is a meeting of friends, a family get-together or a corporate appointment.

At the same time, tea is a beverage that transcends creed or culture. Regardless of favourite football teams, political opinions or religious beliefs, every Malaysian is sure to find common ground when it comes to having a cup of tea.

This is the essence of this simple yet great-tasting brew. Whether tarik-ed and frothy, ice-cold with a squeeze of lime or steaming and fragrant, tea brings people together.

BOH understands this unique feature better than anyone. After all, BOH is today the nation’s leading brand.

As a reflection of the unifying factor of tea and BOH’s brand promise, its tagline ‘Share the Ummph!’ was conceptualised to embody this essence.

The phrase is an expression of sharing the extraordinary feeling of Ummph! by bringing people together over an occasion of tea and igniting joy. It is also a commitment to provide avenues for like-minded Malaysians to meet and gather. After all, the good things in life are always more meaningful when shared with the people who matters.

‘Share the Ummph! is ultimately a promise to create that extra special feeling with great-tasting tea for the enjoyment of everyone, both in Malaysia and beyond.

Universal Studios Singapore

Enter the thrilling world of movie magic as you “ride the movies®” on roller coasters and other movie-themed attractions. Be dazzled and delighted by an immersive entertainment experience that brings the silver screen to life.

There are few attractions that I prefer:

Lights, Camera, Action!™
Be blown away by incredible special effects as an empty soundstage becomes the setting for a Category 5 major hurricane about to hit New York City. As you stand in a boathouse by the harbor, watch how a calm day suddenly turns stormy. Brace yourself as hurricane-force winds sweep in from the sea and drive a cargo ship and debris towards the boathouse you’re in. Calm soon returns and the damaged boathouse restores itself, all thanks to movie magic.

Battlestar Galactica® 
Engage in the ultimate intergalactic battle between good and evil on the world’s tallest dueling roller coasters. Themed after the hit television series Battlestar Galactica™, the attraction asks riders to choose a side – Human or Cylon – and then experience intense aerial combat between two spacecraft. 

The Cylon Raider is a suspended roller coaster that will turn your world upside down as it runs through vertical loops, corkscrews and cobra rolls. The Human Viper Mark II is a seated roller coaster that zooms at 90km/h and propels you fourteen storeys into the air while pursuing the enemy. Riders on both coasters will experience unbelievable thrills as they twist, turn & narrowly avoid collision. 

Revenge of the Mummy®
Plagued on all sides by huge fireballs, swarms of scarab beetles and an army of warrior mummies, all in total darkness. Can you survive the awesome power of Imhotep’s curse or will you be entombed inside forever? 

WaterWorld™ 
Based on the blockbuster film, "Waterworld", witness a tidal wave of death-defying stunts, along with thrills and spills from real explosions of fire and water at this sensational live water show.

Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure®
 It’s lunch time at Jurassic Park™ and you’re on the menu. Featuring a white water raft system with state-of-the-art animatronics and a thrilling white water drop, thrill-seekers on circular rafts will be tossed on waterways within the Jurassic Park compound, where prehistoric creatures roam free. 

Shrek 4-D Adventure®

Help save Princess Fiona® in a totally in-your-face fairy tale adventure. Through the miracle of OgreVision you’ll see, hear, and actually FEEL the action right from your seat!

Join Princess Fiona, Shrek® and Donkey on a honeymoon adventure that picks up where the Oscar-winning movie “Shrek” left off, through an original 3-D film, complete with jumps, bumps, bounces, air blasts and water spray that bring the action to life for each guest- with an extra dimension of special effects through the miracle of OgreVision glasses.

Dragon Warrior


Freshly plucked from his duties as apprentice noodle maker at his dad's shop, Po is now the legendary Dragon Warrior. But despite all the adulation, Po is the same humble panda. Ever the fan boy, he is just as likely to stare slack-jawed at his fellow Furious Five's Kung Fu moves, as he is to dish out some himself. Though he is living out his dreams fighting alongside the stars of the Kung Fu world, Po's journey is not complete. The role of Dragon Warrior comes with new challenges and responsibilities Po must face on his way to becoming the best Kung Fu warrior he can be.

Unexpectedly chosen to fulfill an ancient prophecy and study kung fu alongside his idols the Furious Five, Po begins training under Master Shifu. But it is soon apparent that the traditional styles of kung fu aren't a good fit for a six-foot-two-inch, 260-pound panda. Shifu discovers that for Po to become the Dragon Warrior, he must embrace Po's inherent panda nature and exploit his physical attributes...including his generous belly and rear end. In the end, Po creates his own style that uses his perceived weaknesses as his strengths.

Simple Life



A simple and healthy sandwich can be made within 5 minutes. I love tuna sandwich. Tuna sandwiches are great for breakfast since it has many health benefits and is a good source of protein, vitamins and minerals. Tuna also contains omega-3 fatty acids which are known to lower the risk of heart disease.

To have a meal, it can be just simple, convenient and inexpensive. Don’t always scratch your head to think about where and what to eat. Actually life is really simple, just we insist to make it complicated.

Sometimes you have to slow down. Rushing through your daily tasks, worry about your works and assignments in every second give you no room to enjoy your life, then what’s the meaning of life?

Below here are some signboards that are humorous, hopefully can lighten up your day!
