Hi, Anyone knows where in Singapore has the widest range of paint markers? I need to buy a paint marker or small bottle of paint to touch up a scratch. I called Autobacs to check, but their stores don’t have the color I’m looking for. (Code: 9AL, name: Deep Garnet Metalic)

As a father reading this, I'm heart broken and my blood is boiling at the same time. You don't realize how f**ked up some people can be until you read news like this.

Imagine taking a swig of your favourite beverage -- only to find a large decomposed goldfish floating in it. Believe it or not, this was exactly what a woman surnamed Wen experienced on May 4 in Xi

Hi guys needa some help, gona have some retro dnd party and need to purchase around 120 bottles of glass bottle coca cola. Went around in JB to search for it but mostly in plastic/canned only... Wifey mentioned can buy in pasar malam but wana find more choices. Think locally dun produce liao except thailand. Also, where can buy those bottled (glass/plastic) soft drinks that has a small piece of marble inside? aka 弹珠汽水 which originated from taiwan ( I guess)...

The rubber hose connecting the washer bottle to the spray is broken due to cracking. Any idea got workshop on Sunday can do the replacement? Not keen to DIY.

Many are unaware of poisoning caused by re-using plastic bottles. Some of you may be in the habit of using and re-using your disposable mineral water bottles (eg. Evian, Aqua, Ice Mountain, Vita, etc), keeping them in your car or at work. Not a good idea. In a nutshell, the plastic (called polyethylene terephthalate or PET) used in these bottles contains a potentially carcinogenic element (something called diethylhydroxylamine or DEHA). The bottles are safe for one-time use only; if you must keep them longer, it should be or no more than a few days, a week max, and keep them away from heat as well. Repeated washing and rinsing can cause the plastic to break down and the carcinogens (cancer-causing chemical agents) can leach into the water that YOU are drinking. Better to invest in water bottles that are really meant for multiple uses. This is not something we should be scrimping on. Those of you with family - to please advise them, especially children." any recommendations for a good water bottle that can withstand heat?

Which do you prefer? http://www.bofunk.com/video/2288/bottle_opener.html

trying my luck ... anybody know the procedure??

Will U Buy It ? There's no running away from it in Singapore, the creed or motto we live by: Two for the price of one. Take the valuable snuff bottles, painted with extreme precision by China artist Dong Xue. They feature Mao Zedong, Princess Diana, Teresa Teng, Queen Elizabeth, on one side with some floral designs on the reverse. Except for this precious one, worth $20,000. A Singaporean collector requested that the crystal snuff bottle be painted with the likeness of Mr Lee Kuan Yew on one side and Mrs Lee Kuan Yew on the other side. Anything to do with copyright costs? Mr Ng Geok Soon, of Dong Lee Investment, the exhibitors, said: 'None involved. There's no image copyright for this, in painting.' The laughing portraits of Mr and Mrs Lee meticulously painted inside the 8x5cm bottles were chosen from a book and a website. 'The artist selected his favourite photos of the couple which the collector, a Mr T, was happy with,' said Mr Ng. Dong Xue, 46, from Hebei, is one of China's best-known portrait painters. He has not met Mr and Mrs Lee before but has 'great respect for Lee Kuan Yew's leadership, taking Singapore from poverty to this stage'. He takes a month to do each painted snuff bottle (they date from Ching dynasty), working up to 10 hours a day. He uses a right-angled brush and the media is oils and water-colours. The exquisite collection, with its representations of the famous, form part of Exhibition With A Difference, to be held at the Banyan Room of Shangri-la Hotel on Friday and Saturday. The difference is, visitors will be treated to piano recitals while looking at the bottles and 100 oil paintings by China masters, including one art piece which has never been displayed in China, the 2x4m Lushen Orchestra by Miao Yaosheng, worth $1.5m. Said Mr Ng: 'Dong Lee Investment's owner Mrs Wei Dong's two sons William and Rex are gifted young musicians. They've been admitted to the Manhattan School of Music, New York, as piano majors, under world-class professor Dr Peter Vinograde. He handpicks six students a year.' William, 10, and Rex, 14, practise 10 hours daily and watch no TV, nor do they play any computer games. Their only other pleasure - besides Mendelssohn and Mozart et al - is Lego. 'We have a 5,000 bricks one, Star Wars,' said the cheeky boys who are excited at the prospect of life in New York City for the next few years. 'It cost $999.' Depending on what art pieces sell at the exhibition, the brothers may get mum to graduate to a 10,000-brick Lego set.

I have an unopened/ sealed bottle of cxxxxxe 5w30 engine oil. I cant seem to find any expiry date stated on the bottle. so does that mean it does not have any expiry ? thanks

I was at Killiney Kopitiam Siglap this morning with my family... as usual, it was very crowded... we found a table but there were not enough chairs... at the next table sat a couple (should be in their mid-thirties) with a toddler daughter... my brother saw a chair with a bag on it at their table and politely asked,"Can I have this chair pls?" The lady replied "This seat is for my bag and water-bottle only.", much to the amazement of my brother... who then replied in a nice way.. "A chair is meant for sitting and not for putting things"... before anything else could happen, my mom found another chair and we proceeded to order our food... Throughout the whole meal, the couple glared at us... the husband even said very loudly, "If not happy, go out and settle"... They were obviously not a teeny weeny bit apologetic about it... I am very saddened that the education in Singapore gone wrong... they looked very educated... yet, they can do such a thing.. the bag was not exactly very big, like a handbag... even for me, who lunges a really big laptop bag around, I dun put my bag chairs.. I will just put it on the floor.. especially in very crowded places... moreover, they had a young daughter... are they teaching their daughter that it is fine to put a bag on the chair when there are no seats available? It is not like my brother asked them rudely but in a very polite manner... This is truely an UGLY singaporean act... and what a way to start the new year... -_-"""
