Japanese nut on stabbing spree

Read the recent report on that Jap guy who went on a rampage and stabbed 15 people in Japan?

Although he’s such a brutal monster to have done that, i somehow sympathise with him.

people who have never experienced it before will not know what it feels like to be rejected by society, by friends, or especially by your boyfriend or girlfriend whom you love.  It is equally brutal.

such rejection can accumulate tonnes of hurt and when it is emotionally released, can manifest itself in such violent crimes.

i think the guy needs counselling and mental treatment rather than the death sentence which he is likely to get…

Experts say cows are responsible for the biggest portion of the world’s Global Warming. When cows eat grass, it sits in their stomachs and ferments. This causes gas, and intestinal gas will always find a way to escape the cow. One of the gases emitted from cow farts is methane gas.

Although cows are not the only contributors of methane gas they are by far the largest single contributing factor. Cow farts and burps do 23 times more damage to our environment than car pollution. That’s a lot of gas causing a lot of damage but, scientists have now found a way to ease cow fart emissions.

Are Men really smarter?

Many studies show that men score slightly higher in IQ tests. Is this significant?
Adrian Furnham:
Universally, men tend to score higher on certain specialized skills, such as spatial awareness. In the real world, that means they might be better at reading maps or navigating. Women score higher in terms of language development and emotional intelligence. But most experts agree there is no real, important overall difference when it comes to gender and intelligence.But women think they aren’t as smart as men?
That’s the conundrum. What I study is “perceived intelligence,” essentially how smart people think they are. I analyzed 30 international studies, and what I found was that women, across the world, tend to underplay their intelligence, while men overstate it.

This video is about an old lady trying to convert youngsters from using technology. She claims technology is going to take over our brains. Though current technologies like TV, Movies, Radio, Laptop, Iphone, etc. OMG! In away she kind of right thinks about the electronic calculator, we are so depend on it while other students can do it in their minds. Hahaha!

Initial D-AE86

I am sure some of you may know this car. This is AE 86 driven by Jay Chow in the movie Initial D. He uses this car to deliver toufu for his father so the toufu shop name is stated at the side of the car.

I saw it in Johor Bahru, Malaysia but the driver was not Jay Chow, LOL…. I heard from my friend that there are 5 such cars in Singapore but I haven’t got a chance to see them. They must have watched the movie and attracted by Jay Chow’s drift skill and decided to get one for themselves. However, I wonder where they get the car from because AE 86 is quite an old model and I don’t think there is still production going on for this model.
