CARAMELLDANSEN

CARAMELLDANSEN
Call me slow if you want, but I just learnt a new term (from Dannychoo) and I find it hilarious and fun at the same time -- Caramelldansen.

picture: from Wikipedia
Source: Wikipedia
Caramelldansen (Swedish for The Caramel Dance) is the first track of the album Supergott released in 2002 by the Swedish music group Caramell. It is also a popular Internet meme that started on the second half of 2006.

Click here to be directed to Wikipedia site to see the animated .gif loop of Mai and Mii from Popotan doing the Caramelldansen (doing a hip swing dance with their hands over their heads imitating rabbit ears), and the speedup version of the song "Caramelldansen (also known as the Caramelldansen Speedycake Remix)."

Watch Dannychoo's "Caramell Trooper" original post here.

The Starwars Trooper in the video below is Dannychoo himself doing the Caramelldansen in the streets of Shibuya, Tokyo. He was out and about with idol comrade Amano Ai (her bikini photos here) and had some time before the next meeting, so they decide to make good use of time to throw together this video:


Q: Someone do Caramelldansen with me down Orchard Road or Raffles Place?

CITRONELLA ESSENTIAL OIL

CITRONELLA ESSENTIAL OIL
My brother just came home exclaiming how he tested the power of CITRONELLA essential oil, so i thought I'd share what he told me, and what I found on the Internet...

My brother bought 2 vials of this Citronella essential oil off a hydrophonics farm somewhere in Yishun. He was told "Mosquitoes hate it". Then he tested it today at some ulu-sama forested place. True enough, while the mosquitoes had a good time feasting off his friends' blood, my brother came home without a single scratch!

A 5ml vial .......................... S$2.50
A 20ml vial ........................ S$6.50
(Bodyshop sells ................. S$18.00)

I'm gonna get a couple of bottles when I go recce again up north. If you're interested, drop a comment after this post so I'd know how many bottles to get. (Good friends get them for free ^__^)

Application: a few drops directly on skin (if you have sensitive skin, it burns); a few drops in an aroma burner; a few drops into the water when you mop the floor.
Information from AROMAWEB:

Citronella Essential Oil
Botanical Name: Cymbopogon nardus
Aromatic Description: Citrusy (similar to lemongrass), slightly fruity, fresh, sweet.
Possible Uses: Excessive perspiration, fatigue, headache, insect repellant, oily skin.

Avoid Citronella during pregnancy.

[Julia Lawless, The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Essential Oils (Rockport, MA: Element Books, 1995)]

General Safety Information: Do not take any oils internally without consultation from a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Do not apply undiluted essential oils, absolutes, CO2s or other concentrated essences onto the skin. If you are pregnant, epileptic, have liver damage, have cancer, or have any other medical problem, use oils only under the proper guidance of a qualified aromatherapy practitioner. Use extreme caution when using oils with children and give children only the gentlest oils at extremely low doses. It is safest to consult a qualified aromatherapy practitioner before using oils with children. A skin patch test should be conducted prior to using an oil that you've never used before. Instructions on conducting a skin patch test and more safety information can be found by visiting the Safety Information page. For very in-depth information on oil safety issues, read Essential Oil Safety by Robert Tisserand.

Services in Japan Part 4

services - SENTO
I wun really consider Sentō to be a service, I'd view it more like a culture thingy in Japan.

Where customers pay for entrance to use these communal bath houses, "some Japanese find social importance in going to public baths, citing the virtues of skinship in Japanese... others go to a sentō because they live in a small housing facility without a private bath or to enjoy bathing in a spacious room and to relax in saunas or jet baths that often accompany new or renovated sentōs..." - wikipedia

I would certainly love to relax in saunas and jet baths... but bathing in very spacious rooms and with other men side-by-side... HELL NO.


below: you bath yourself clean first before entering the dip... Fanservice for the ladies...
*stop staring at the asscrack!*

services - ONSEN
"Onsen (温泉) is a Japanese term for hotsprings, though the term is often used to describe the facilities and inns around the hot springs. A volcanically active country, Japan has thousands of onsen scattered along its length and breadth. Onsen were traditionally used as public bathing places and today play a central role in directing Japanese domestic tourism" - wikipedia

below: I am definitely gonna try this out if I have the chance - get a little monkey to scrub my back... these monkeys are probably the luckiest guys in the world~


If you do read the article from Wikipedia, there are outdoor onsens as well as indoor onsens; outdoor onsens are termed "Rotenburo (露天風呂)" or "Notenburo (野天風呂)". "Baths may be either public run by a municipality or private (内湯) - often run as part of a hotel, Ryokan (旅館) or Minshuku (民宿).


services - KON-YOKU
A simple google for the term "mixed bath" online and I found a very good... ahem - Weekly Playboy article by Geoff Botting, on The Japan Times Online. Full article here.

According to the article, the number of mixed hotsprings, called kon-yoku in Japanese is dwindling at an alarming rate... driving the thousand over years old tradition of mixed bathing towards extinction.

Quote:
"Keita Oguro, the author of a series of konyoku guidebooks, doesn't have the exact figures but reckons that about 50 of the 650 resorts he wrote about five years ago no longer allow men and women to mingle in the bath..."

"They have become women-only or they've put up physical (gender) barriers..."

"The magazine puts the blame on a number of factors behind the demise of the konyoku tradition. Among them is a 1991 guideline issued by the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, advising hot-spring resort operators to refrain from allowing males and females aged 10 and older from bathing together..."

"As a consequence, new businesses that want to offer mixed bathing don't get approval. Furthermore, when operators transfer their businesses to their children or when the bathing areas are renovated, applications need to be filed with the local public-health departments. That's when the operators are told to stop their mixed bathing..."

...The travel industry is also part of the problem. According to Oguro, travel agents have been energetically promoting group rentals, whereby organizations or large groups of friends reserve entire resorts for themselves, thus making the baths unavailable to romancing couples..."
Unquote.


below: was emailed this some time back... was told its some Japanese firm's annual company tour as part of 'welfare activities' for their employees to get to know one another...
below: well they sure got to know one another really better after the trip...
Kon-yoku for you? The Japan association for kon-yoku here; and a pretty informative site called Onsen express here.

Quote:
"The main problem, according to Tadanori Matsuda, founder of the Japan Hot Spring Research Institute, is the lecherous attitude of an increasing number of single male bathers... "

"Such guys, he says, see mixed bathing as nothing more than an opportunity to gawk at naked women... "

"Some will position themselves facing the exit of the women's changing room and some will sit in the bath all day, carrying water bottles so they don't dehydrate," Matsuda says."

"He and other onsen watchers have noticed a sharp increase in these perverts in recent years. More and more resorts, meanwhile, have been forced to respond by setting up the gender barriers or barring men all together..."

below: if you find yourself staring for over 3.22 secs, you add on to the statistics of the increasing number of lecherous single male bathers... fanservice for the guys...

"Mixed bathing, whereby complete strangers could enjoy hot springs amid calmness and harmony, is a distinctive feature of Japan," Matsuda sighs. "It has a history of at least 1,300 years. It's outrageous that some mindless people are destroying this tradition..."

Q: gonna get a girl fast so I can bring her to Japan for some Konnyaku (jelly) and Konyoku... (^___^)

DIGITAL SLR

DIGITAL SLR & PHOTOGRAPHY
Kokuhen-san recently burnt S$900+ getting his very first Digital SLR...
Q to Kokuhen: "Still virgin...; haven bite the dust yet... (referring to Jiawoei's S$800+ Canon camera that our Taiwan tourguide dropped on the ground...)

Here're some of the photos he took with his new camera:
Some random leaf around Kallang Stadium drive...
Lovely Fauna... indoor studio
Favourite model of the year... Kureha... indoor studio as well
To view Kokuhen-san's complete collection, visit his FLICKR site here, and his Blog site here.

Kokuhen-san definitely caught my attention to ALTZERO's collection by first showing me this fantastic photoshot of Mina Mijikina:

OLYMPUS E-510 ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 50mm F2.0 Macro
I reckon ALTZERO pretty much does outdoor-shoots... as can be seen by his extensive props...
Neko's part of his props...

know what he did to this LAST.EXILE. Vanship?
1. hang the vanship with a thread.
2. put a light reflector in a lower direction and set an electronic flash to a direction of the light reflector.
3. photograph it with the camera attached with a fisheye lens from right under.
4. erase a thread by image editing software.
the result:
Here's another of his outdoor shoots:
the result:
Arvis from LAST.EXILE... one wrong move and she goes diving...
Cocona...
ALTZERO's collection can be viewed from his his FLICKR site here.

Been seriously poisoned by Kokuhen-san with all the pictures and photos he's been showing me... now I have listed Digital SLR on my buy-list... come to think of it... my sister's Pentax conventional SLR is currently collecting dust under my bed... *grin*

1st March 2008
NEWS FLASH

Singapore Flyer opens to Public
The Singapore Flyer, the world's largest observation wheel (currently), opened its doors to the public today.
Facts and figures:

  • Diameter of the wheel .... 150 metres
  • Height .......................... 165 metres (approx. 42 storey building)
  • Duration of ride ............. 30 minutes
  • Capsules ...................... 28 fully air-con (thank goodness!) and UV protected
  • Capacity ....................... 4m x 7m, for up to 28 people each.

What you should know:

(Below picture: many months ago, before even the wheel axles were fixed on, some of friends had asked me what that huge white structure was... thinking that the constructions for the Integrated Resorts are set to be around the vicinity, I had thought that was like some sort of gigantic hoist commonly seen at shipyards... so embarrassing thinking back...)

Search for J.I. leader continues with posters put up islandwide
(aka: "Terrorist still at large" or "Police still unable to capture the escaped J.I leader")

After like 72 hours since the terrorist-with-a-limp escaped, the Police still hasn't any clue of Mas Selamat Bin Kastari's whereabouts.

Mas Selamat Bin Kastari (thereafter abbrev. "MSBK" for his darn long name) was detained under Singapore's Internal Security Act, for plotting a terror-attack on Singapore Changi Airport in year 2002. He was arrested in year 2006 by the Indonesian authorities and thereafter extradited to Singapore. (Fact: the Singapore Police never did managed to capture him before.)

The Interpol has released an Orange Notice (urgent worldwide security alert) consisting of MSBK's photo, fingerprints, and essential elements to help law enforcement officers in their search and eventual verification of his identity when located and arrested.

Here's a list of speculations and remarks I've heard thus far:

  • "MSBK fled from the toilet at the detention centre when his family was visiting... wah, I thought that only happens in HK movies... "
  • "the detention centre has armed guards, high wire fences and CCTV cameras... wah piang, the 'Gah-men' are like slapping themselves in the face, telling the whole world that a 'Pai-Kah' limped his way out of the place without anyone knowing..."
  • "... probably an inside job lah..."
  • "... 40 over hours still a large... he must have been picked up by people from the terrorist network already... probably already made his way out of Singapore..."
  • "... got armed Gurkha mercenaries, police officers, Police Special Operations Command officers and army guardsmans on the prowl for him leh... wah piang, the louder the name, the more malu our Gah-men is as the hours drags on and still no result from this group of elites..."
  • "... he is not known to be armed... I think the reports are stupid; not armed doesn't mean he cannot armed himself after that... wah kaoz... I can always pick up a tiger beer bottle, smash it, then stab u gruesomely to death..."
  • "... wah the chief for that detention centre sure kenna jia-liat jia-liat... confirm demotion + condemnation..."

(Inserted dialogue: Terrorist are trained since young to ambush ang moh soldiers...)

Man with armed-NSman Dave Teo appealing sentence
The man convicted for not reporting on his armed friend, is appealing the sentence.

Earlier this week, Ong Boon Jun was handed a six-and-a-half year jail term + six strokes of the cane for not reporting on Dave Teo Ming, who had a stolen rifle with him.

Ong is appealing because he thinks the sentence is not fair and is excessive.

Last September, Ong was with national serviceman Dave Teo Ming in a Geylang hotel, while Teo was carrying a firearm. - Channel News Asia

Q: TOUGH LUCK... our gah-men always adopts the 杀一警百 (kill one to warn a hundred) method. The first one gets it the toughest. You only have yourself to blame for hanging around with that kinda idiots.
