Skinny Player - A Band Aid looking MP3 Player is Powered by Body Heat

=) What a restful day...I found a very interesting thing called the Skinny Player when one of Dan's friend gave a link on http://www.justpaste.it/....

I quickly went on google and found a few sites that was talking about it...

What is so great about Skinny Player? It looks great and just like a band aid...Jogging was the perfect usage...You don't need to use a head phone cos it has its own speakers at the sides...You don’t need batteries because the device will be using your body heat as the source of energy...a cool looking Play/Pause button.

Skinny Player concept is designed for repeat stick on and off, so you could stick and take off whenever the device gets stained or dirty. Looks perfect but its not in the market still...

Found from http://newstodaynews.com/skinny-player-is-a-mp3-player-that-use-body-heat-for-battery-it-designed-by-chih-wei-wang-and-shou-his-fu-from-china/13412

Chih-Wei Wang and Shou-His Fu are designer from China who make the MP3 player with the design specially and unique. It named Skinny Player, the music player does not need to be pinned on the shirt, belt, or dikantungi. Simply attached to the skin of the user, like a plaster bandage.

Both of designers claim that MP3 player that designed will not lose its adhesive power even if has been installed and removed as many as a hundred times from the skin.

As quoted from Discovery, December 3, 2010, in addition can taped to the skin, MP3 player also does not require batteries. To work, Skinny Player requires only heat from the human body.

From the circulated information , Skinny Player only has the on / off and flexible speaker who can dilekuk according to body surface that is attached with MP3 player.

Not yet known how the user can adjust the volume of music produced, but the estimated amount of memory that used was not large. It designed simply to keep an album of music.

The technical information that available about this MP3 player and how the body heat can be used to supply power also not yet available. However, small size, flexible and can be taped on the skin makes Skinny Player is touted suitable for use by those who like gymnastics or jogging one morning while accompanied by music.

I would have tought that such amazing gadget is another Apple's work...Can't wait to see it out in the market....

Big Snake....Real Big!

I was just going through some old emails that some friends sent me like 2 years ago (OMG I actually kept them!!!!) and found this intersting email....just looking at the 2nd picture gives me goosebumps...

Seems a sheep farmer was puzzled about the disappearance of some sheep on his farm. After a few weeks the farmer decided to put up an electric fence.

About a week later, this is what he found...

Now, I know we've all heard of people being eaten by snakes & I bet most of us have said, 'If a snake tried to eat me, I'd blah, blah, blah & get away.'

Well, this is a Python & they're extremely aggressive & have a few teeth that they use to hold their prey while they wrap around them & then constrict.

Could you get away if this one bit you & held on with it's 'few teeth?' (Note: The wires are 10 inches apart.)

What a multi millionaire thinks

NOT A STORY BUT A TRUE INCIDENT

An Indian man walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.
He tells the loan officer that he is going to India on business for two weeks and needs to borrow $5,000.

The bank officer tells him that the bank will need some form of security for the loan, so the Indian man hands over the keys and documents of new Ferrari parked on the street in front of the bank. He produces the title and everything checks out. The loan officer agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.

The bank's president and its officers all enjoy a good laugh at the Indian for using a $250,000 Ferrari as collateral against a $5,000 loan. An employee of the bank then drives the Ferrari into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.

Two weeks later, the Indian returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.

The loan officer says, "Sir, we are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multi millionaire. What puzzles us is, why would you bother to borrow "$5,000" ?

The Indian replies:

"Where else in New York City can I park my car for two weeks for only $15.41 and expect it to be there when I return'"

Breathing Therapy

The nose has a left and a right side; we use both to inhale and exhale.

Actually they are different; you would be able to feel the difference.

The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon.

During a headache, try to close your right nose and use your left nose to breathe. In about 5 Mins, your headache will go?

If you feel tired, just reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed.

Right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily, left side belongs to 'cold'.

It is said that most females breathe with their left noses, so they get "cooled off" faster. Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up. (I doubt so actually....)

Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left o! r right? ?

If left is faster, you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshe d quickly.

This can be taught to kids, but it is more effective when practiced by adults.

I receive an email from a friend telling me about his friend using the "Breathing Theraphy":

My friend used to have bad headaches and was always visiting the doctor.

There was this period when he suffered headache literally every night, unable to study.

He took painkillers, did not work.

He decided to try out the breathing therapy here: closed his right nose and breathed through his left nose.

In less than a week, his headaches were go! ne! He continued the exercise for one month.

This alternative natural therapy without medication is something that he has experienced.

So, why not give it a try? =D

AFAX - 2010

Bought the AFAX 2010 tix for the boyz....At first I was gonna join them for the Anieme Festival Asia 2010 - I LOVE Anisong at Suntec Hall 402, however Da decided that we are not going this year hence I only got the boyz their tickets.....

So why am I there? LOL...I am the delivery girl...damn funny right? sigh....

Since I was the one buying the tix I decided to take a picture of it before passing to them...LOL....

Best picture I have taken through out the whole event is the sigh... omg...I don't know what happened to me or the camera...no sexy girls pics cos they are all so blur...sigh...

This little girl is so cute...I was wondering who she is trying to cosplay as...."Candy"?

This "couple" is very interesting, the one dressed as the lady is actually a guy...when "she" see me trying to take picture, "she" demurely covered "her" face with the fan...

This pair of twins is the best...I had to chase them from ground level all the way to 2nd level to get their pictures...worst part of it is some one's trying to interview them when I tried to take a picture for them...waited a long while and finally interrupted the interview to get them to pose for me before I leave them...



Sadly I did not go into the event hall to see the exhibition...too rush...Luckily I took some pictures...Happy =)

Losing an amazing friend

My friend, Jun Hui passed away on tuesday and he is only 31 years old...

Feels so sad about it...I cried so much when I called my friends to inform them...Ziyi who was at the hospital when Jun Hui left was so sad that he could not go for the wake cos he is getting married...

What shocked me so much is that Jun Hui is only 31 years old and he died of stroke...how can such a nice, friendly and helpful person die so early?!??? He has a wife who's so soft spoken and gentle...a wonderful mum and a serious and sucessful dad...the sister is another kind soul...also a little bro who's like only 17 years old this year...

I was sitting at the wake and sharing with his dad and wife how amazing Jun Hui is....of cos I do still remember how weird he can be...always bringing so many things in his bag....I couldn't resist but asked him before how come he bring so much things to school...his answer was typical guy's answer..."oh cos I am lazy to pack my bag so I bring everything..."

Anyway he is so amazing....cos of all people he always remembers your birthday...he is the kind that will always be there to help you if you need help...I told his wife and dad that even though I am not so close to him...I am very very sure that if I ever need help from him...and ask him for help...he will never say no...he will just help you without any second thoughts....He is this kind of person...simply amazing person...the kind of person who will leave foot prints in your life...someone who makes a difference...and he really makes an effort to do things for people...

I would say that he is one of those that makes our class so interesting...the symbol of our class is of cos Jun Hui (sleeping beauty), Sherman (The singer), our four muskteer - Don, Ramesh, Benedict and also Ming Hui. Of cos there is our Terence, who drove his dad's car to our school and scared the hell out of our teachers...

Cos of Jun Hui, I found out that Don also passed away...he died in an accident in Australia, also another interesting person....Sigh...2 shocking news in one day...Don had passed away for at least 6 years before we found out about it...

Sigh...

Foot Prints in your Life

I was just talking to one of my colleague about people who leaves foot prints in your life and came across this very nice verse:-

An Angel wrote:
Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

Do you ever leave foot prints in others life?

Read on below is a very nice story about someone who'd impressed life in a very simple manner...a friend of mine actually sent it to me...

Breakfast at McDonald's

I am a mother of three (ages 14, 12, 3) and have recently completed my college degree.

The last class I had to take was Sociology.

The teacher was absolutely inspiring with the qualities that I wish every human being had been graced with.

Her last project of the term was called, 'Smile.'

The class was asked to go out and smile at three people and document their reactions.

I am a very friendly person and always smile at everyone and say hello anyway. So, I thought this would be a piece of cake, literally.

Soon after we were assigned the project, my husband, youngest son, and I went out to McDonald's one crisp March morning.

It was just our way of sharing special playtime with our son.

We were standing in line, waiting to be served, when all of a sudden everyone around us began to back away, and then even my husband did.

I did not move an inch... an overwhelming feeling of panic welled up inside of me as I turned to see why they had moved.

As I turned around I smelled a horrible 'dirty body' smell, and there standing behind me were two poor homeless men.

As I looked down at the short gentleman, close to me, he was 'smiling'

His beautiful sky blue eyes were full of God's Light as he searched f or acceptance....

He said, 'Good day' as he counted the few coins he had been clutching..

The second man fumbled with his hands as he stood behind his friend. I realized the second man was mentally challenged and the blue-eyed gentleman was his salvation.

I held my tears as I stood there with them.

The young lady at the counter asked him what they wanted.

He said, 'Coffee is all Miss' because that was all they could afford. (If they wanted to sit in the restaurant and warm up, they had to buy something. He just wanted to be warm).

Then I really felt it - the compulsion was so great I almost reached out and embraced the little man with the blue eyes..

That is when I noticed all eyes in the restaurant were set on me, judging my every action.

I smiled and asked the young lady behind the counter to give me two more breakfast meals on a separate tray.

I then walked around the corner to the table that the men had chosen as a resting spot. I put the tray on the table and laid my hand on the blue-eyed gentleman's cold hand.

He looked up at me, with tears in his eyes, and said, 'Thank you.'

I leaned over, began to pat his hand and said, 'I did not do this for you.. God is here working through me to give you hope.'

I started to cry as I walked away to join my husband and son.... When I sat down my husband smiled at me and said, 'That is why God gave you to me, Honey, to give me hope..'

We held hands for a moment and at that time, we knew that only because of the Grace that we had been given were we able to give.

We are not church goers, but we are believers.

That day showed me the pure Light of God's sweet love.

I returned to college, on the last evening of class, with this story in hand..

I turned in 'my project' and the instructor read it.

Then she looked up at me and said, 'Can I share this?'

I slowly nodded as she got the attention of the class.

She began to read and that is when I knew that we as human beings and being part of God share this need to heal people and to be healed.

In my own way I had touched the people at McDonald's, my son, the instructor, and every soul that shared the classroom on the last night I spent as a college student.

I graduated with one of the biggest lessons I would ever learn:

UNCONDITIONAL ACCEPTANCE.

Much love and compassion is sent to each and every person who may read this and learn how to

LOVE PEOPLE AND USE THINGS -
NOT LOVE THINGS AND USE PEOPLE.
