Who here is in the same situation?

http://www.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne%2BNews...010-304281.html Woman insists on marrying terminally ill Air Force technician SINGAPORE - Doctors told him he had only five years left to live, but his girlfriend insisted on marrying him anyway. And on Oct 8, the 30-year-old Republic of Singapore Air Force senior technician and Staff Sergeant finally gave up the fight against brain cancer after battling it for three years. Mr Ho Jian Heng was found to have Ependymoma, a rare type of brain tumour in 2008. If malignant, tumour cells can invade and destroy brain tissue. It can also spread to other parts of the brain. He and his then-girlfriend, Toh Yen Ling, then planned to marry two months later. 31-year-old Ms Toh, now Mr Ho's wife, told Lianhe Wanbao that her husband initially wanted to call off their wedding, fearing that she would find it hard to get a husband after he passed away. He also faced his condition fearlessly. "He never gave up and went for all the treatments no matter how difficult they were. He was very brave," she said. Ms Zhuo also said that her husband could not bear to leave her even when he was in the latter stages of cancer. "The last thing he said to me was that he hoped for me to take care of myself and that he regretted not being able to accompany me to live out our lives together." The couple got engaged on March 6, 2006 and was deeply in love. They stayed at Block 434, Ang Mo Kio Street 43. "We knew each other when we were studying. After we got married, he took good care of me and my family." "It's rare to find someone like him." According to Lianhe Wanbao, Ms Zhuo lost weight after not eating and sleeping well while caring for her husband when he was ill. The New Paper reported that the couple first met in 2002 when they were both studying in Ngee Ann Polytechnic, where they were studying telecommunications and engineering. Both of them joined the RSAF after graduating. Ms Toh left service in 2008. Booked a niche space beside husband Ms Zhuo also told the Chinese daily that her husband often reminded her on the things to handle after he knew of his condition. However, she refused to listen because she believed he had a chance of surviving. When she was handling his funeral matters, she decided to book a niche beside his urn so that they will be together forever. The niches happened to be numbered 30 and 31, his age when he died and her current age respectively. Ms Zhuo also said her dog seemed to sense that her husband had passed away and looked sad

How to Make Your New Car Last Forever By Eric Peters The last thing you want to have to do when your car is finally paid off is start thinking about a new car--and another 5-year loan--again. The goal is to push the day of debt renewal off as far into the future as possible, maximizing the period of essentially free transportation and putting the hundreds of dollars you'd otherwise be spending on a monthly payment to better use. There's no reason why almost any late-model car or truck can't be counted on to last for 10 years or longer, and run reliably for well beyond 100,000 miles. Don't get suckered by the out-of-date notion that once the warranty runs out (or 5 years have rolled by), the end is near. The durability and reliability of modern cars is remarkable--provided they're treated decently. Decent treatment means: No abuse or excessively hard driving. When you first start the vehicle, do not race the engine. Accelerate gradually until the engine (and the rest of the drivetrain) has completely warmed up; that takes about 10-15 minutes of driving, depending on the outside temperature. Most engine wear occurs at cold start and during the first few minutes of operation. Revving a cold engine will greatly accelerate this wear and tear. If you have a truck and pull a trailer or haul heavy loads, it is especially important to take it easy until the engine's had a chance to warm up and the oil is circulating freely. Do not just start the vehicle and leave it idling in the driveway for more than a couple of minutes. Doing that is also bad for the engine, because idling does not heat it up quickly enough to burn off raw gas and other contaminants that can dilute the oil and reduce its ability to lubricate and protect internal parts. Simply get in, start the engine, and drive way at a measured pace, avoiding full-throttle starts or passing attempts until about 20 minutes have gone by. Lubricant levels and regular changes: It is critical to routinely check the engine oil and transmission fluid to assure they're at the proper level--and have these fluids changed (along with the filter) at least as often as recommended by the factory under "severe or heavy duty" conditions. Do not go by the "normal use" fluid- and filter-change intervals unless you live in a rural area and rarely experience stop-and-go driving or periods of prolonged idling (as in traffic jams). For most people, day-in, day-out driving conditions meet the factory definitions of "severe" service--yet many people assume that because they're not drag racing or otherwise abusing their vehicles, they can adhere to the so-called "normal use" recommendations. Often, the manufacturers at least tacitly endorse this false belief, because it makes the new cars they're trying to sell seem less expensive to maintain. However, it's far less expensive over the life of a vehicle to spend an extra $30-$50 annually on oil changes (and perhaps an extra $100-$150 every 2 years for a transmission flush and fluid/filter change) than it is to have to buy a new transmission--or a new car--as a result of poor maintenance The recommended change intervals for "severe or heavy duty" are typically half the "normal use" intervals (that is, 3 months or 3,000 miles vs. 6 months or 6,000 miles). Check your owner's manual: The actual time and mileage intervals for your specific vehicle can be found there. This small investment will reap large rewards over the life of your vehicle. Pay attention to what the factory says about maintenance. If the timing belt (on models so equipped) should be replaced at 50,000 miles, have it replaced at 50,000 miles--not at 70,000. If the factory says it's essential to flush the cooling system a minimum of every 3 years, do it--unless you want to pay for a new radiator (often a $500-plus part) because the old one was ruined by degraded or contaminated antifreeze. Any car with anti-lock brakes should have the entire system professionally "bled" (purged of old fluid) and refilled with new brake fluid at least every 3 years. Otherwise, you risk ruining the very expensive ABS pump, rotting the brake lines from the inside, and damaging the entire system. Brake fluid attracts moisture, and moisture in the brake system is lethal--but silent. Major damage will occur before you even realize it, and by then it's too late. A mistake many new-car buyers make is failing to read the owner's manual cover to cover--especially the chapters dealing with maintenance--and failing to follow its recommendations to the letter. You can pay now. Or you can pay much more, later. Be kind in extreme weather: If it's very hot or very cold outside, life is much harder on your car's engine and all of its mechanical components. Any excessive demands placed on your engine in such conditions can (and usually will) come back to haunt you down the road. Would you run a marathon in 100-degree weather? For the same reason, avoid driving at high speed--or worse, running the car at full tilt from one stop light to the next--if it is really hot or cold outside. Consider having auxiliary oil/transmission coolers installed, as well as switching to synthetic lubricants. Oil/transmission coolers lower the operating temperature of engine oil and transmission fluid, and that can greatly increase the longevity of your engine and transmission. The cost of having these parts installed will be about $200--a small investment given the over-the-road benefit. Ditto synthetic lubricants. Though more expensive than ordinary motor oil and transmission fluid (about $4 per quart vs. $1.50 or so for premium-quality non-synthetics), the benefits far outweigh the small initial cash outlay. Synthetics are vastly superior in terms of the protection they provide; they have superior resistance to extremes of temperature, better "flow rates" (lower viscosity) when cold, and better resistance to high heat conditions and extreme service. You can also extend change-out intervals when using synthetics, as well, which further reduces the actual cost.

Fruits for Thought Story: FRIENDS FOREVER A holy man was having a conversation with God one day and said, 'God , I would like to know what Heaven and Hell are like.' God led the holy man to two doors. He opened one of the doors and the holy man looked in. In the middle of the room was a large round table. In the middle of the table was a large pot of stew, which smelled delicious and made the holy man's mouth water. The people sitting around the table were thin and sickly. They appeared to be famished. They were holding spoons with very long handles, that were strapped to their arms and each found it impossible to reach into the pot of stew and take a spoonful. But because the handle was longer than their arms, they could not get the spoons back into their mouths. The holy man shuddered at the sight of their misery and suffering. God said, 'You have seen Hell.' NEXT................................ They went to the next room and opened the door. It was exactly the same as the first one. There was the large round table with the large pot of stew which made the holy man's mouth water. The people were equiped with the same long-handled spoons, but herethe people were well nourished and plump, laughing and talking. The holy man said, 'I don't understand..' It is simple,' said God . 'It requires but one skill. You see they have learned to feed each other, while the greedy think only of themselves.' Happy Weekends .....................

i got this thru email.... 28hrs work week for germans... damn ....good life.. Good article ... esp the last part. [/size] A MUST READ An excellent article to read and enjoy (may be action as well!!). It's been 18 years since I joined Volvo, a Swedish company. Working for them has proven to be an interesting experience. Any project here takes 2 years to be finalized, even if the idea is simple and brilliant. It's a rule. Globalized processes have caused in us (all over the world) a general sense of searching for immediate results.. Therefore, we have come to posses a need to see immediate results. This contrasts greatly with the slow movements of the Swedish. They, on the other hand, debate, debate, debate, hold x quantity of meetings and work with a slowdown scheme. At the end, this always yields better results. In other words: [ol] [*]Sweden has 2 million inhabitants.[/ol] [ol] [*]Stockholm has 500,000 people.[/ol] [ol] [*]Volvo, Escania, Ericsson, Electrolux, are some of its renowned companies. Volvo even supplies NASA.[/ol] The first time I was in Sweden , one of my colleagues picked me up at the hotel every morning. It was September, bit cold and snowy. We would arrive early at the company and he would park far away from the entrance (2000 employees drive their car to work). The first day, I didn't say anything, neither the second or third days. One morning I asked him, "Do you have a fixed parking space? I've noticed we park far from the entrance even when there are no other cars in the lot." To which he replied, "Since we're here early we'll have time to walk, don't you think that whoever gets in late will need a place closer to the door?" Imagine my face. Nowadays, there's a movement in Europe named Slow Food. This movement establishes that people should eat and drink slowly, with enough time to taste their food, spend time with the family, friends, without rushing. Slow Food is against its counterpart, Fast Food and what it stands for as a lifestyle. Slow Food is the basis for a bigger movement called Slow Europe, as mentioned by Business Week. Basically, the movement questions the sense of "hurry" and "craziness" generated by globalization, fuelled by the desire of "having in quantity" (life status) versus "having with quality", "life quality" or the "quality of being". French people, even though they work 35 hours per week, are more productive than Americans or British. Germans have established 28.8 hour workweeks and have seen their productivity been driven up by 20%.. This slow attitude has come to the notice of USA , the pupils of the fast and "do it now" brigade. This no-rush attitude doesn't represent doing less or having a lower productivity It means working and doing things with greater quality, productivity, perfection, with attention to detail and less stress.It means re-establishing family values, friends, free and leisure time. Taking the "now", present and concrete, versus the "global", undefined and anonymous.It means taking humans' essential values, the simplicity of living. It stands for a less coercive work environment, more happy, lighter and more productive work place where humans enjoy doing what they know best how to do. It's time to stop and think on how companies need to develop serious quality with no-rush that will increase productivity and the quality of products and services, without losing the essence. In the movie, 'Scent of a Woman', there's a scene where Al Pacino asks a girl to dance and she replies, "I can't, my boyfriend will be here any minute now". To which Al responds, "A life is lived in an instant". Then they dance the tango. Many of us live our lives running behind time, but we only reach it when we die of a heart attack or in a car accident rushing to be on time. Others are so anxious to live for the future that they forget to live the present, which is the only time that truly exists. We all have equal time throughout the world. No one has more or less. The difference lies in how each one of us does with our time. We need to live each moment. As John Lennon said, "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans". Congratulations for reading this email till the end of this message. There are many who will have stopped in the middle so as not to waste time in this "Globalized" world.
