darkness...
i'm alone in the dark...
i'm on the dark side of mine...
many things on my mind...
i just don't understand...

"I'm not okay
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
You wear me out

What will it take to show you that it's not the life it seems?
I've told you time and time again you sing the words but don't know what it means
To be a joke and look, another line without a hook
I held you close as we both shook for the last time take a good hard look!"

Old joke but with a new twist..haha..!!

Once upon a time in Singapore ,there lived a happy couple, Mr. & Mrs. Ng with their 3 lovely daughters; Elaine, Ena & Ella.

The 3 daughters were brought up in a prim-and-proper way and when they reached 20, they were still virgins.

Years passed, and it was time to get them married.

So, the parents found them the most suitable handsome guys.

They got married and were preparing to set-off on their honeymoon.

As 'concerned' parents, Mr.& Mrs. Ng were curious about their daughters' first-night experience.

So, before the daughters went on their respective honeymoons, Mrs. Ng told them......'Your father and I want to know about your 1st night encounters and whether you are satisfied. Write a letter to us, but as not to raise your husbands'curiosity... you all must use a code-name to describe your experiences' .

So, the excited daughters were off. A week passed.

Mr. & Mrs. Ng got the first letter. It was from Elaine.
They opened the letter and found the word STANDARD CHARTERED.
They immediately took the newspaper and looked for the Standard Chartered advertisement. 'Ah! here it is!', exclaimed Mr. Ng. The motto for Standard Chartered was... 'BIG, STRONG & FRIENDLY'
Mr & Mrs. Ng were happy.

A week later, they got another letter. This time it was from Ena. The content was simple. 'NESCAFE'
So, again they took the newspaper and looked for the Nescafe ad. 'Ah! here it is. 'NESCAFE:PLEASURE TILL THE LAST DROP'. Mr. & Mrs. Ng beamed with joy.

Another week passed. A month passed. And another. There was still no letterfrom Ella.

The Ngs became worried.

Finally, the letter came. It was scribbled and could hardly be read, but Mrs.Ng managed to figure it out. The code-name was 'SINGAPORE AIRLINES'.

Why Singapore Airlines? Mr.Ng rushed to the nearest store and got a newspaper. He flipped the pages frantically. 'Ah! Here it is!' Mrs. Ng grabbed the page and read aloud. Before she could finish ...THUMP!!!. ..she fell off her chair. The motto was...'7 TIMES A WEEK. 4 TO 6 TIMES A DAY. NON-STOP'.

Anemia..!?!


Anemia, one of the more common blood disorders, occurs when the level of healthy red blood cells (RBCs) in the body becomes too low. This can lead to health problems because RBCs containhemoglobin, which carries oxygen to the body's tissues. anemia can cause a variety of complications, including fatigue and stress on bodily organs.

Anemia can be caused by many things, but the three main bodily mechanisms that produce it are:

  • excessive destruction of RBCs
  • blood loss
  • inadequate production of RBCs

Among many other causes, anemia can result from inherited disorders, nutritional problems (such as an iron or vitamin deficiency), infections, some kinds of cancer, or exposure to a drug or toxin.

Anemia Caused by Destruction of RBCs

Hemolytic ("hemo" means blood, "lytic" means destroying) anemia occurs when red blood cells are being destroyed prematurely. (Normally, the lifespan of RBCs is 120 days. In hemolytic anemia, they have a much shorter lifespan.) And the bone marrow (the soft, spongy tissue inside bones that makes new blood cells) simply can't keep up with the body's demand for new cells. This can happen for a variety of reasons. Sometimes, infections or certain medications - such as antibiotics or antiseizure medicines - are to blame.

In a condition known as autoimmune hemolytic anemia, the immune system mistakes RBCs for foreign invaders and begins destroying them. Other children inherit defects in the red blood cells that lead to anemia. Common forms of inherited hemolytic anemia include sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency.

  • Sickle cell anemia is a severe form of anemia found most commonly in people of African heritage, although it can affect those of Caucasian, Saudi Arabian, Indian, and Mediterranean descent. In this condition, the hemoglobin forms long rods when it gives up its oxygen, stretching red blood cells into abnormal sickle shapes. This leads to premature destruction of RBCs, chronically low levels of hemoglobin, and recurring episodes of pain, as well as problems that can affect virtually every other organ system in the body. About 1 out of every 625 African-American children is born with this form of anemia.
  • Thalassemia, which usually affects people of Mediterranean, African, and Southeast Asian descent, is marked by abnormal and short-lived RBCs. Thalassemia major, also called Cooley's anemia, is a severe form of anemia in which RBCs are rapidly destroyed and iron is deposited in the skin and vital organs. Thalassemia minor involves only mild anemia and minimal red blood cell changes.
  • Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency most commonly affects men of African heritage, although it has been found in many other groups of people. With this condition the RBCs either do not make enough of the enzyme G6PD or the enzyme that is produced is abnormal and doesn't work well. When someone born with this deficiency has an infection, takes certain medicines, or is exposed to specific substances, the body's RBCs suffer extra stress. Without adequate G6PD to protect them, many red blood cells are destroyed prematurely.

Anemia Caused by Blood Loss

Blood loss can also cause anemia - whether it's because of excessive bleeding due to injury, surgery, or a problem with the blood's clotting ability. Slower, long-term blood loss, such as intestinal bleeding from inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), can also cause anemia. Anemia sometimes results from heavy menstrual periods in teen girls and women. Any of these factors will also increase the body's need for iron because iron is needed to make new RBCs.

Anemia Caused by Inadequate Production of RBCs

Aplastic anemia occurs when the bone marrow can't make enough RBCs. This can be due to a viral infection, or exposure to certain toxic chemicals, radiation, or medications (such as antibiotics, antiseizure drugs, or cancer treatments). Some childhood cancers can also cause aplastic anemia, as can certain chronic diseases that affect the ability of the bone marrow to make blood cells.

High levels of hemoglobin and RBCs help fetal blood carry enough oxygen to developing babies in the relatively oxygen-poor environment in utero. Thus, infants are born with some protection from iron deficiency. After the child is born, more oxygen is available and the baby's hemoglobin level normally drops to a low point at about 2 months of age, a condition known as physiologic anemia of infancy. This temporary and expected drop in the blood count is considered normal and no treatment is required because the infant's body soon starts making red blood cells on its own.

Anemia also occurs when the body isn't able to produce enough healthy RBCs because of an iron deficiency. Iron is essential to hemoglobin production. Poor dietary iron intake (or excessive loss of iron from the body) can lead to iron deficiency anemia, the most common cause of anemia in children. Iron deficiency anemia can affect children at any age, but is most commonly seen in those younger than 2 years old.

Girls going through puberty also have a particularly high risk for iron deficiency anemia because of the onset of menstruation; the monthly blood loss increases the amount of iron they need to consume in their diets.

Signs and Symptoms of Anemia

If your child has anemia, the first symptoms might be mild skin paleness, and decreased pinkness of the lips and nailbeds. These changes happen gradually, though, so they may be difficult to notice. Other common signs of anemia include:

  • irritability
  • fatigue
  • dizziness, lightheadedness, and a rapid heartbeat

Depending on what's causing the anemia, symptoms may also include jaundice (yellow-tinged skin), a yellowing of the whites of the eyes, an enlarged spleen, and dark tea-colored urine. In infants and preschool children, iron deficiency anemia can result in developmental delays and behavioral disturbances, such as decreased motor activity and problems with social interaction and attention to tasks. Recent research indicates that developmental problems may persist into and beyond school age if the iron deficiency is not properly treated.

Diagnosing Anemia

In many cases, doctors don't diagnose anemia until they run blood tests as part of a routine physical examination. A complete blood count (CBC) may indicate that there are fewer red blood cells than normal. Other diagnostic tests may include:

  • Blood smear examination: Blood is smeared on a glass slide for microscopic examination of RBCs, which can sometimes indicate the cause of the anemia.
  • Iron tests: These include total serum iron and ferritin tests, which can help to determine whether anemia is due to iron deficiency.
  • Hemoglobin electrophoresis: Used to identify various abnormal hemoglobins in the blood and to diagnose sickle cell anemia, the thalassemias, and other inherited forms of anemia.
  • Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy: This test can help determine whether cell production is happening normally in the bone marrow. It's the only way to diagnose aplastic anemia definitively and is also used if a disease affecting the bone marrow (such as leukemia) is a suspected cause of the anemia.
  • Reticulocyte count: A measure of young RBCs, this helps to determine if production of red blood cells is at normal levels.

In addition to running these tests, your child's doctor may ask about a family history of anemia and your child's symptoms and medications. This may lead the doctor to perform other tests to look for specific diseases that might be causing the anemia.

Treating Anemia

Treatment for anemia depends on its cause. It's important not to assume that any symptoms your child may be having are due to iron deficiency. Be sure to have your child checked by a doctor.

If your child does have iron deficiency anemia, the doctor may prescribe medication as drops (for infants) or as a liquid or tablet (for older children), and also may recommend adding certain iron-rich foods to your child's diet.

If your teenage daughter is anemic and has heavy or irregular menstrual periods, in some cases her doctor may prescribe a birth control pill to help regulate the bleeding.

Folic acid and vitamin B12 supplements may be prescribed if the anemia is traced to a deficiency of these nutrients, although this is rare in children.

If a certain medication appears to be the cause, your child's doctor may discontinue it or replace it with something else - unless the benefit of the drug outweighs this side effect.

Anemia caused by an infection will usually improve when the infection passes or is treated.

Depending on the cause, treatment for more severe or chronic forms of anemia may include:

  • transfusions of normal red blood cells taken from a donor
  • removal of the spleen or treatment with medications to prevent blood cells from being removed from circulation or destroyed too rapidly
  • medications to fight infection or stimulate the bone marrow to make more blood cells

Bone marrow transplantation may be considered in some cases of sickle cell anemia, thalassemia, and aplastic anemia. This procedure involves taking bone marrow cells from a donor and injecting them into the child's vein; the donated cells then travel through the bloodstream to the child's bone marrow, where they begin producing new blood cells.

Caring for a Child With Anemia

The type, cause, and severity of your child's anemia will determine what kind of care is needed. Rest assured, though, that children often tolerate anemia much better than adults.

In general, a child with significant anemia may tire more easily than other children and therefore need to limit activity levels. Make sure that your child's teachers and other caregivers are aware of the condition. If iron deficiency is the cause, follow the doctor's directions about dietary changes and taking any iron supplements.

If the spleen is enlarged, your child may be prohibited from playing contact sports because of the risk that the spleen could rupture or hemorrhage if your child is hurt. Certain forms of anemia, such as sickle cell anemia, require other more specific kinds of care and treatment.

Preventing Anemia

Whether anemia can be prevented depends on its cause. Currently, there is no way to prevent anemia due to genetic defects affecting the production of RBCs or hemoglobin.

However, you can take steps to help prevent iron deficiency, the most common form of anemia. Before following any of these suggestions, be sure to talk them over with your child's doctor.

  • Cow's milk consumption. During the first 6 months of life, babies are usually protected against developing iron deficiency by the stores of iron built up in their bodies pre-birth. But after month 6, as infants continue to grow, they often don't get enough iron through breast milk alone or regular cow's milk (which contains less iron than fortified infant formula). Regular cow's milk can also cause some infants to lose iron from their intestines, and drinking lots of it can make an infant less interested in eating other foods that are better sources of iron. For these reasons, regular cow's milk is not recommended for children until they reach 1 year of age and are eating an iron-rich diet. In addition, your child should not drink more than 24-32 ounces (709-946 ml) of milk each day. If you can't get your child to eat more iron-rich foods, speak with your child's doctor about giving your child an iron supplement.
  • Iron-fortified cereal and formula. These products can help ensure that your baby is getting enough iron, especially during the transition from breast milk or formula to solid foods.
  • Well-balanced diet. Make sure that your child or teen regularly eats foods that contain iron. Good choices include iron-fortified grains and cereals, red meat, egg yolks, leafy green vegetables, yellow vegetables and fruits, potato skins, tomatoes, molasses, and raisins. If your child is a vegetarian, you'll need to make an extra effort to ensure sufficient iron sources because iron found in meat, poultry, and fish is more easily absorbed than iron found in plant-based and iron-fortified foods. Also, be aware that certain food combinations can inhibit or promote absorption of iron. For example, drinking coffee or tea (including iced tea) with a meal can significantly lower the amount of iron absorbed. On the other hand, vitamin C helps the body absorb iron.

If you have any questions about anemia, or you think your child might have the condition, talk with your child's doctor.

"Yeaaa...suddeh 2 bulan...
2 and 1/2 months to go..
chaiyok...chaiyok...:p"



Just for fun..haha..!!

**TIGA KALI JE**

Pada satu malam, ada pasangan yg agak berumur sedang makan malam dengan romantiknya bagi menyambut ulangtahun perkahwinan mereka yg ke 50 tahun.

Suaminya, seorang Tan Sri dan bekas ahli politik mula bercerita tentang nostalgia mereka suami isteri, sekian lama hidup bersama, suka duka, susah dan senang. Si suami memang menyanjung isterinnya, bernama Maria.

"Maria, selama kita kahwin ni, suka duka kita lalui, susah senang kita tempuh, abang amat menyanyang Maria, tapi ada satu perkara yg asyik bermain-main di benak abang ni dan abang selalu bertanya-tanya. Berterus-teranglah dgn abang pada malam ni, pernah tak Maria curang dgn abang selama ni?"

Maria agak terkedu sekejap dan merenung panjang muka suaminya itu, lalu berkata dengan penuh kekesalan, "Ya abang, Maria mengaku pernah curang dgn abang, tapi hanya 3 kali sahaja selama ni"

"3 kali?" Tan Sri tu agak terkejut, tapi tak la marah, dah tua dah dan memang berniat utk memaafkan isterinya,"Bagaimana boleh terjadi 3 kali tu Maria?"

1. Perlahan jer la isteri dia mula membuka lebaran cerita lama, "Abang ingatkan masa kita mula-mula kawin, terus beli rumah dan selang beberapa tahun, kita susah sangat masa tu hingga rumah kita hampir nak dirampas oleh bank"

"Ya, abang ingat peristiwa tu" jawab si suami. Si isteri menyambung cerita, "Abang pasti ingat yg pada satu petang tu Maria pergi jumpa pegawai bank tu dan esoknya, bank tu tak jadi rampas rumah kita, malah bagi tambahan pinjaman utk abang mulakan perniagaan.."

"Emmmm.. sukar buat abang menerima kenyataan ini, tapi abang maafkan maria kerana apa yg maria buat tu untuk masa depan kita jugak", kata si suami, " Kali ke 2 pulak?"

2. "Abang ingat tak, abang hampir menemui maut sebab ketumbuhan dalam otak pembedahan?" si isteri menyambung cerita "Ya, abang ingat" jawab si suami. "Kalau macam tu, abang pasti ingat yg Maria ada pergi jumpa doctor pakar tu dan esoknya, dia setuju buat pembedahan utk abang tanpa bayaran apa-apa pun.."

3. "Oh maria, walau perit hati ini mendengarkan, tapi abang tetap maafkan maria sebab apa yg maria buat tu untuk masa depan kita jugak dan kerana sayangkan abang jugak.. yang kali ke 3 macam mana pulak? ", kata si Tan Sri. Si isteri menundukkan mukanya dan menjawab penuh lemah, "Abang, ingat tak masa abang bertanding merebut kerusi bahagian dan abang perlukan 248 undi lagi...."

Tan Sri pengsan kat situ jugak...


**PUKUL BERAPA BUKA?** 

Pada suatu tengah malam telepon di rumah seorang pustakawan berdering.
"Pukul berapa perpustakaan akan di buka?" seorang pemuda di hujung talian bertanya.
"Jam 9 pagi encik, apa hal yang penting sangat encik menelifon saya tengah malam buta nie?" tanya pustakawan tadi.
"Tak boleh buka awal lagi ke?" pemuda itu bertanya lagi dengan nada kecewa.
"TIDAK, tidak akan dibuka sebelum pukul 9!" si pustakawan menjawab dengan nada yang tinggi.
"Penting sangat ke sampai encik tidak boleh tunggu sampai pukul 9 pagi untuk masuk?".
"Siapa kata saya mau masuk?" kata pemuda itu kesal,
"SAYA MAU KELUAR!"

**MANGGA** 

Pada suatu hari ada seorang pembeli yang sedang tawar-menawar dengan seorang penjual buah mangga.
Pembeli: "Bang, berapa harga mangga sekilo?"
Peniaga: "RM7!"
Pembeli: "Amboi, mahal sangat... RM5 sudah la!"
Peniaga: "Tak boleh dik, harganya dah cukup murah tu!"
Pembeli: "Kalau tak manis, macam mana bang?"
Peniaga: "Kalau tak manis, tak payah bayar!"
Pembeli: "Kalau macam tu, beri saya yang tak manis 10 kilo!"

**SIAPA BANGANG** 

Seorang lelaki telefon hospital untuk memberitahu yang isterinya nak bersalin. Dan jururawat hospital menjawab telefon lelaki tersebut.
Lelaki: "Hello... tolong saya sebab isteri saya nak bersalin!"
Jururawat: "Sila bertenang... ini anaknya yang pertama ke?"
Lelaki: "Apa la punya bangang... ni laki dia la!"
Jururawat: "Pulak... "

**RAHSIA MENANGKAP IKAN** 

Adaseorang nelayan yang selalu dapat banyak ikan bila dia ke laut... so crew TV9 interview dia untuk rahsia dia tangkap ikan.
Crew TV9 : "Apa rahsia pakcik tangkap ikan?"
Nelayan : "Oh, pakcik guna firasat. Pakcik tengok cara isteri pakciktidur bila pakcik bangun pagi.
Kalau dia mengereng ke kiri, pakcik tebar jala ke kiri. Kalau dia mengereng ke kanan pakcik tebar ke kanan."
CrewTV9 : "Kalau isteri pakcik tidur terlentang?"
Nelayan : "Itu tandanya rezeki depan mata, pakcik tak turun ke laut pagi tu... "
CrewTV9 : "O, ye ke... "

Square root of three..!!


I fear that I will always be a lonely number like root three
A three is all that's good and right
Why must my three keep out of sight
Beneath a vicious square root sign
I wish instead I were a nine
For nine could thwart this evil trick
With just some quick arithmetic
I know I'll never see the sun
As 1.7321

Such is my reality
A sad irrationality
When hark just what is this I see?
Another square root of a three
Has quietly come waltzing by
Together now we multiply
To form a number we prefer
Rejoicing as an integer
We break free from our mortal bonds
And with a wave of magic wands
Our square root signs become unglued
And love for me has been renewed
