Parents upset over penis-shaped Play-Doh toy Angry parents say Play-Doh's plastic toy looks like a dildo. Play-Doh has landed in hot water with parents after releasing a plastic toy that looks suspiciously like a sex toy. The item in question: an "extruder" tool included in Play-Doh's $20 Sweet Shoppe Cake Mountain Playset. Some parents are complaining that the device, intended for squeezing out icing onto a toy cake, resembles a penis. And it's a little hard to argue with that: http://mashable.com/2014/12/30/play-doh-dil-doh/

STUDENTS, staff and visitors to the Singapore Institute of Management (SIM) will soon have to pay to park at the university. From Nov 15, SIM will charge drivers $1 an hour when they park at its two carparks - one at the basement of the main building and the other at the basement of an extension building. Motorcyclists will also have to pay 50 cents per entry. The charges at SIM apply from 7am to 11pm for Mondays to Fridays, and 7am to 6pm for Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays. The move has upset some students, who say that the charges are too high. They put up a petition on Facebook in late October after learning of the carpark charges on the students' online portal. The petition has garnered more than 400 names. It's the first time in 46 years that the university has imposed parking fees for carpark lots. Other universities also charge for parking. $3 cap The petition, which was sent to the school's administration on Nov 2, called for the university to impose the parking charges for visitors, but to allow season parking for students and to impose a daily cap of $3 for students who do not opt for season parking. The petition also suggested that there should be free parking for motorcyclists and free parking after 6.30pm. Attempts by The New Paper to contact those who had started the petition were unsuccessful. A spokesman for SIM confirmed that the petition and a list of 444 names were e-mailed to SIM's office on Tuesday. Mr Alex Sim, in his 20s, is among those who signed the petition. The first-year economics and finance student told The New Paper that he often spends over 30 hours a week in school, so he could end up forking out about $120 monthly on parking fees alone. Why doesn't he switch to public transport? Alex, who lives in Tampines and drives a two-litre Tucson to school, said that public commutes would triple his travel time. Miss Ong Huiqi, 21, a banking and finance student, who lives in Kembangan, called the upcoming parking charges are "crazy as students don't have a salary". Banking and finance student Ryan Chang, 22, is unhappy over the fees for motorcyclists. Mr Chang, who rides a motorbike to school, said: "There are ample lots. There is no reason at all to charge motorcyclists." An SIM spokesman told The New Paper that the school has about 500 lots for cars and about 100 lots for motorcycles. These cater to a student population of 30,500 and staff size of more than 600. The spokesman added that in deciding the carpark rates, the university has considered what other institutions were charging, and factored in its space crunch. She added: "The hourly charge, while reasonable, has to have the necessary deterrent effect (on private transport) and encourage more students to take public transport." On season parking or a daily cap, she said: "Unless the charges are high enough to deter sufficient students from driving, the charging system will not help address the shortage of parking spaces." She also pointed out that unlike other tertiary institutions, SIM has a huge part-time student population. "We have classes scheduled throughout the day, even into the night and over the weekends for part-time students. "Hence, the park-and-pay system has to apply throughout the day."

http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20090707/tts-...at-34aa993.html SEOUL (AFP) - - Almost three-quarters of South Korean male office workers feel uncomfortable when female colleagues show too much leg or cleavage in the workplace, a survey has revealed. A poll of 1,254 employees by the job portal site CareerNet found that 74 percent of men felt upset with the attire of their female co-workers. Some 56 percent of them cited micro-miniskirts as their chief complaint, while 51 percent objected to excessive cleavage. Low-rise trousers that reveal women's underwear, "killer heels" and flashy outfits in general were also cause for complaint. Women meanwhile complained mostly of stains on the shirts and ties of their male colleagues. Both sexes disapproved of colourful underwear under a white top, slippers or sandals and sleeveless clothes. South Koreans in general still dress conservatively in the workplace, with an emphasis on suits and ties among men. Serious these koreans guys really no words to say....i dun mind having female co-workers wearing micro-miniskirts, showing their g-string when bend down or cleavage :p

'Why not do all the repairs at the same time?' Letter from Mickey Chiang I thank the Director of the Hawkers Department (National Environment Agency) for his reply, "Adam Road food centre is open again" (April 4) to my letter "Why weren't hawker centre closures better planned?" (March 21). . Unfortunately, the reply did not answer my queries, namely: Why were two popular hawker centres close to each other closed simultaneously; and why was the Farrer Road wet market also closed, making it inconvenient for already hawker-food-deprived residents to cook meals at home? . The reply talked at length about the Hawker Centre Upgrading Programme (HUP) and HUP working committees for various districts. What is needed is the assurance that there will better co-ordination in the future between adjacent HUP working committees, so that simultaneous closures of nearby food centres and wet markets do not recur. . It is also disturbing to read that the Farrer Road Hawker Centre, which was renovated only two years ago, needed further upgrading because during that renovation "only some repainting and minor repair works" were done, and yet the closure of the Adam Road Food Centre was for precisely the same kind of repairs. . Does this mean that in two years' time, the Adam Road Food Centre will again be closed, for major renovations? . Would that not cause double hardship to the hawkers and residents relying on the food centre? Why not do all the repairs and renovations at the same time, this way, it helps save public funds while minimising hardship to those affected? http://www.todayonline.com/articles/247343.asp solution: another FAQ to answer him! mebbe the district 9 peasants comprain too much abt polis condon off area last month so they now kena retribution. comprain = u kena.
