New Cure for Acne

I know that doesn't sound like an interesting title...but don't click away just yet. This will be an interesting post...trust me.


PHNOM PENH - A CONDOM lubricant designed for sex workers and gay men has become a popular acne cure among female Cambodians, women in the capital and local media said on Thursday.

(I told you its interesting...)

Number One Plus, a water-based lubricant produced by health organisation Population Services International (PSI), is an excellent cure for acne, 29-year-old vendor Tep Kemyoeurn told AFP.

'After I used it for three days, all of my acne dried up and went away,' she said. 'Many people believe in it,' she added.

Khen Vanny, 29, from Phnom Penh, told AFP that women of all ages have taken to using the lubricant to get rid of spots.

'It is very effective. Some people don't believe in it but people who do really get a good result,' she said, adding: 'My youngest sister and my aunt use it too.'

Another woman told Khmer-language Kampuchea Thmey newspaper that she had used many kinds of medicine to treat acne but none had worked.

'After that my friends, who work at garment factories in Phnom Penh, advised me to apply the lubricant from Number One Plus condoms on my face every night,' she told the paper.

'And just within three to four nights, the acne on my face gradually and then totally disappeared,' she added.

A vendor near a factory in the coastal city of Sihanoukville told the newspaper that she sold packets of Number One Plus lubricant for 500 riels (17 Singapore cents) to many women every day.

The paper urged experts to conduct research about the phenomenon.

There's something I like to know...who was the first person that looked at the lubricant and said 'Hmm...lets put some on my face and see.' Er... wait..maybe I think I know how it got there...

If you want to be a politician...

To any of you out there who have hopes of being involved with politics one day...





Well...



Make sure you delete all your embarrassing photos permanently first.

Who is Vincent?

Recently when ironing my clothes, I noticed this.

Vincent????

Another Vincent

The last time I checked my IC, the name written there is still Ted. Now that I've discovered the 'Vincents,' I am a bit reluctant to wear it. It feels really weird wearing clothes with other people's names written on it.

Can't make this one out but doesn't look like Vincent

Are my clothes seeing someone else I should know about?

Breakfast of Champions

Usain Bolt winning the gold and breaking the world record for the 100m

BEIJING — Usain Bolt celebrated his coronation as the world’s fastest man 20 meters early, throwing out his arms and thumping his chest. But he still obliterated the world record in the 100 meters Saturday night, turning his Olympic gold medal performance into a show of astounding talent. (LINK)

So how did the fastest man in the world prepare for his race?

"I woke up at 11, then I had lunch," Bolt says. "Some nuggets," he says. Yes, the greasy McDonald's kind. "And then I pretty much went back to my room, and slept again, for like two hours. Then I went back, got some more nuggets." It's the breakfast, lunch and dinner of champions. (LINK)

You've heard it from the man himself...
1) Wake up late.
2) Eat junk food.
3) Take more naps.
4) Eat more junk food.

I'm going to be a champion starting from today.
