NETIZENS SLAM SAFRA OVER 'SEXIST' POSTER ADVERTISING GYM MEMBERSHIP SAFRA has come under fire over an advertisement that has been displayed at several bus stops around Singapore that some have called 'sexist'. The ad, pictured above, shows a gym scenario where two young men working out are checking out a girl who is standing in the foreground. It is accompanied by the caption "A great workout, good friends and some healthy distractions.” It is an ad about SAFRA membership. One concerned Singaporean who saw the ad, took a photo of it and posted it to the SAFRA facebook page to voice her concern about the poster: . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Then today, I saw this. SAFRA releases new gym ad targeting men, undoes sexism of previous ad Posted on 11 March 2014 New ad tries to be politically correct, shows a man of minority race working out instead of a Chinese woman. After receiving death threats and some complaints from some quarters regarding its previous gym advertisement that portrayed two men mentally raping a woman, SAFRA has come up with a new ad. The new gym ad aims to undo the damage done by the previous ad that objectified the woman as a piece of meat. For the new ad, a male model of minority race was chosen as it is more politically correct than using a Chinese woman as a model. A SAFRA spokesman, Tong Xing Lian, said: “This ad is appropriate because we managed to get rid of the sexism of men ogling at a woman. Now it shows men ogling at a man, because SAFRA is a man’s organisation.” “In NS, everybody is a man and it is all about men. Men shower with men, men sleep with men and men are taught how to die for other men.” “This is the SAFRA spirit.” At press time, SAFRA said they have received a call from one Lawrence Khong of FCBC.

While Mazda's newly revealed MX-5 already looks good as it is, many photoshop pros have seem to have worked their magic and rendered their own MX-5 build. Check them out! 1. Rendered by Eric Shell 2. Rendered by JONSIBAL. A set of RS Watanabe with some bolt on flares and a front lip can do wonders in my opinion! 3. Rendered by X-Tomi 4. Rendered by Car Throttle on how the MPS version should look like. Almost perfect for me. 5. Rendered by Oillie Evans and James Eades. A 10/10 for me. Mazda needs to give us a fastback version of the MX-5 and a matching ducktail spoiler ASAP. So which one is your favourite? Let us know!

Rachel Lim Yan Xuan, a 34 year-old dance instructor, has been preparing meals and distributing them for free to people begging or selling tissues on the streets of Geylang and outside a temple at Waterloo Street.

She said:

Guess some folks, civy or military, will be killed or maimed as a result of this latest incident-another bad press for the US forces. This time it is the 82d "All American" Airborne's turn...

More than a dozen motorists a day are pulled up for infringements like modified exhausts, overly tinted windows and various lighting offences. In the first half of the year, Land Transport Authority (LTA) enforcement officers issued 2,512 summonses - almost double the 1,337 in the corresponding period last year . The 2,512 figure matches the full-year haul of last year (2,645) and 2009 (2,510) and surpasses the 1,746 in 2008. The LTA keeps a relatively tight rein on what changes can be made to a car because of safety issues. Source: http://www.straitstimes.com/BreakingNews/S...ory_725312.html

http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-570978 Local Malaysian newspaper Berita Harian published a caricature in their editor's column today that depicts the popular Japanese cartoon character Ultraman as trying to outrun an incoming tsunami. The publication has received tremendous criticisms by readers, who accuse the editors as being "inconsiderate and distasteful". Several political leaders have even stepped out and demand a public apology, to which the editors promptly made on their publication's Facebook fan page.

Almost slammed into tis kayu driver just now. Was in the left filter lane, so i turned my head to check for cars, there was none. But when i turned back, the stupid car in front of me was stationary, n VERY CLOSE. I slammed the brakes n swerved, missed my bumper by inches. Din even have time to press the horn, haha. And tat wasn't the end of my sway journey. Shortly later, i went past a cop sentry along the SLE, under the bridge at roughly 100kmh. I saw the minibus/van, but i never expected it to be a sentry as i've never seen tat before. Too late when i saw e tripod. Do u pple think they'll be fussy abt 10kmh over the limit? And wat other tell-tale signs should i look out for next time? Thanx
