RIP: Nikeplus

After 5 months .... my nike plus gave up on me..... Guess you can't expect much from a price tag $99.90...

At least it was still under warranty... manage to swop for a pair of Nike Span 5 with top up.....

Hope that the new version coming next year will be better.....

WALL STREET MADE SIMPLE

WALL STREET made simple ............. ....

This is an old story but worth repeating as history repeats itself.

If you have difficulty understanding the current world financial situation,
the following should help ...

Once upon a time in a village in India, a man announced to the villagers
that he would buy monkeys for $10..

The villagers seeing there were many monkeys around, went out to the
forest and started catching them.

The man bought thousands at $10, but, as the supply started to diminish,
the villagers stopped their efforts. The man further announced that he would now buy at $20. This renewed the efforts of the villagers and they started catching monkeys again.

Soon the supply diminished even further and people started going back to their farms. The offer rate increased to $25 and the supply of monkeys became so little that it was an effort to even see a monkey, let alone catch it !

The man now announced that he would buy monkeys at $50 !
However, since he had to go to the city on some business, his assistant
would now act as buyer, on his behalf.

In the absence of the man, the assistant told the villagers :
' Look at all these monkeys in the big cage that the man has collected.
I will sell them to you at $35 and when he returns from the city, you can sell them back to him for $50. '

The villagers squeezed together their savings and bought all the monkeys.
Then they never saw the man or his assistant again, only monkeys everywhere !

Welcome to WALL STREET.

XZ, CCF, Kua, Tao, Piglet, Tiamjiak, Slack Philip & the act cute one (always late, kept us waiting) started ard 5.45am.

It was a humid day, was prespiring even before the start of the run.

For this lsd, i've set a target of myself to achieve an even pace for my first 20km.

TJ & slack power up from the start.. while i took my time to warm up my body behind the pack after crossing the first stop point. i power up to even out my pace. It was a good run, manage to maintain my pace @ 5.32 pace..... good work out...... after completed the first loop. knowing the heat will take a toll on my body.. i reduce my pace..... for the 2nd loop. and feel the body not used to the heat .... after 24km... body no fuel liao.... have to reduce my pace somemore... slack manage to ran past me @ the 26km.... wah fast runner.....Completed @ 2hr 53mins.... good for me
