Tiger Crystal.

Been awhile since I had a drink. Stomach/Gastric problems have seriously hampered my lifestyle in the past few months. Well, here's to recovery then!

Picked up a Tiger Crystal for this chilly rainy season. Looks-wise, it really looks much like a light beer similar to Corona and such. But take a swig and you will know the difference. It does have a light refreshing taste to it, but it is the aftertaste that really sets the kick. Unlike Coronas, the aftertaste here is really rich and distinct.

As someone who had his fair share of cheap Tigers in NS to last a lifetime, I gotta say that I love the balance that Tiger Crystal has managed to achieve. Not too gassy, light tasting, not too bitter, but with a rich aftertaste.

If you have a chance, do try it. It will likely change your view of Tigers.


PS: Been trying out the Rainbowbrush app on my N9, thus the visual effect. The green tint/glow from the bottle is merely a reflection of my desktop.




Yeah, the upgrading at the site is not complete as of yet, but there are some stark changes already visible across the barbed fence. For starters, the addition of red into the school's colour scheme? There is a hint of red in the school's crest, but the colour scheme for the uniforms have always been blue and white. So, any changes to that too in the near future?

And as stated by the guys on FB, yes, the arch designs for this missionary school does look a tad Turkish/Muslim/Monastery-like. Guess we'll have to wait till later next year to find out the interior changes.


PS: And yes, as Carradine pointed out, sadly, barbed wires do make a school feel more like an institution.




A really novel idea from this San Francisco startup. There's just something about it being made from torn down barns that just adds that whimsical feel to it. Large and small ties all going for USD $34!




When the shake weights and free flexors are just not enough to give you that total body workout.




For years, scientists have studied the inner workings of a psychopathic killer, trying to isolate traits that could be used to identify one. However, as history has shown through the XYY saga, correlating isolated genetic traits to that of violent behavior, often led to unjustified stigmas, that brought more harm than good.

With scientific advancements, there in an increasing library of markers, both genetic and physiological, that are characteristic of a psychopathic mind. However, even with this wealth of knowledge and tools, the question still remains. If someone actually fits the scientific profile perfectly, possessing all of the identified markers, is he or she definitely a psychopath?

In this documentary, we meet a scientist who discovers that he has the scientific profile of a psychopath, proving that nurture does play a role in shaping nature.




Finally, a short piece that really felt like a black box play in Hitchcock style, with the tight framing, clever use of shadows and repetitive shots from different angles which gradually revealed the plot.
