Your finger determined your character

It is already an accepted fact that every single person in the world has a different set of fingerprints. The Chinese have devised a way to read personality & destiny traits by studying the waves and the circles that appear at the tips of everyone ‘ s fingers - indeed so convinced are they that in the old days the fingers of prospective daughters-in-law were carefully scrutinized by prominent families to ensure they did not unwittingly welcome women who had fingers that showed alternate circles and waves on their fingers, as it was commonly believed that such women would bring trouble into the family, being particularly difficult to control and usually very aggressive.

The danger of HEPATITIS B

I feel fine. Should I get tested?
Because hepatitis B can be a “silent” disease that doesn’t cause symptoms for years, people who have it often don’t even know they’re infected. Hepatitis B claims the life of one person every 30 seconds.
Am I really at risk?
• Because over 10 percent of the Asian & Pacific Islander community is chronically infected with hepatitis B, all members of the API community should be tested for hepatitis B.
• An estimated 2 million Americans are chronically infected with hepatitis B. Over half are API Americans.
• Hepatitis B is 100 times more infectious than HIV. Because of its infectiousness and because it can survive outside of the body for up to seven days, hepatitis B can be spread through items such as shared razors and toothbrushes that have contaminated blood on them.
• Among API men living in California, liver cancer ranks as a leading cause of cancer death: #1 for Laotian Americans, #2 for Vietnamese and Cambodian Americans, #4 for Chinese and Korean Americans, and #5 for Filipino Americans. Continue Reading »

sQuba, world’s first swimming car

Three decades ago James Bond (then enacted by British star Roger Moore) wowed the world with a car that could ‘fly’ under water in the movie The Spy Who Loved Me. Only, it was animation and not an actual scene.
But Frank M Rinderknecht, the 52-year-old automobile visionary and boss of Swiss automaker Rinspeed, has turned a dream into reality with his ’sQuba.’
Rinspeed sQuba is the most exciting thing at this year’s Geneva Motor Show and is creating many a ripple.
