Going to pick up my daughter from her school in a few minutes. Enough time for one quickie post.
It was raining and really windy when I sent her in the morning. Took us 20 minutes to get to her school.
The wind was blowing against me and I had to struggle a bit to push the stroller with my son in it. To keep my daughter from straying, we have an elastic leash attached to each other. So I only hold her hand when I have to cross the road.
Thank God! The rain has stopped but I can see the trees swaying in the strong wind.

Looking for binoculars
What do you use a binocular for?
The first thing that comes to mind are usually nature related activities such as bird watching. However, there are other several other uses. For site seeing, at theaters and concerts, for astronomy as well as for sports.
Just found the perfect site to look for binoculars. Eagle Optics has a great selection of binoculars.
I was so surprised to learn that there are binoculars specially designed for viewing insects, plants, and any other wildlife you can watch from very close range. The brand I am talking about is the Pentax Papilio 6.5x21 Binoculars (means butterfly in Latin).
You should definitely check out their Hot Deals with unmatched price offers on several products.
For your information, Eagle Optics gives 90 days free financing on all orders over $200.
So now you know where to go if you are looking for a binocular.

Walking my girl to school
My wife was at the University the whole day for invigilating some exams.
Had to walk my daughter to school today - the first time I had to do that. Previously, I used to drop her off by our car. In a previous post, I had mentioned that the school was a walk away. I never realised it was a 15 minutes walk with me pushing a stroller and my daughter in tow. Thank God! we invested in a good stroller.
It was bright and sunny today but there was a chilly wind blowing around. By the time we got to the school, I couldn't feel my ears. Getting back was faster - 10 minutes. Had to go and pick her up again but my daughter enjoyed the walk. Well! I got some exercise too.
Walking her to school and back again tomorrow as my wife has classes. I just hope it doesn't rain.

UK phone comparision site
One of the first things we did when we first arrived here in the UK was get a pay-as-you-go line. We already had mobile phones and all we had to do was buy the SIM card. It was necessary to buy a phone because we didn't have phone line nor did we have an internet connection. It was our only means of communication with other people.
Unfortunately we were not aware about the different call rates and sad to say, we later found out that the network (not named here) we selected, was one of the costliest. At that time we were using like £30 in a month. That roughly translates to around a pound a day.
We only found out later that there were several cheaper alternatives and that we could even get a brand new handphone with a line by paying as low as £15 per month.
Just found this site which allows us to Compare Mobile Phones in the UK. It compares over 20,000 deals from all leading UK mobile phone retailers ever day. So if you are living in the UK, I would recommend you to go over to mobile360.co.uk to find the cheapest deals on all the latest mobiles and buy online.
Never knew that mobile service providers were giving away free gifts including the Nitendo Wii when you buy a contract phone. Check out the deals here.

Melayu Boleh
The Bahasa Malaysia phrase Melayu Boleh can be loosely translated into 'Malays can'. Unfortunately searching for the term on various search engines would inevitably lead to porn sites.
Mohd. Suhaimy, a netpreneur and founder of the Wangcyber forum came up with a challenge - anybody who reaches the highest ranking possible on Yahoo and Google search engines results for the phrase melayu boleh using legal SEO methods, will win a prize of RM100. Runner-up and second runner-up will get RM60 and RM40 respectively. It's not much but I am taking up the challenge as well.
BTW, learnt about this challenge from the Eches Blog.
You can also help me in this project to overthrow porn sites, by linking to this particular post. Inform me and I will link back to your post too.

Never forget a birthday
I am sure that at one time or the other you must have forgotten the birthday of a friend or family member. I have.
Well Card-List.com is a company with a great idea. You sign up and enter in the birthdays of your friends/loved ones. You then buy some cards online.
Here where the interesting part comes in. Their database will track the date of birth of your loved one and a week before the individual’s birthday, you will receive a birthday card and an stamped and addressed envelope (to the individual) in your mail early enough for you to sign and send it off.
Yeah! It's up to you to send it on to the birthday boy/girl.
Companies can also use this service to let employees and customers know that you care about them.
I am not really sure about the pricing but they have mentioned that the cards are as low as $4. I didn't sign in so I am not sure whether the prices depend on the location of the recipient. For example, my sister lives in Australia. Will it cost more to send a card to her as opposed to someone living in New York. They have not mentioned that it is limited to residents in the US. So I assume that it guys in Malaysia and in the UK can sign up too.
