Doc molested me, claims clinic assistant

BUKIT MERTAJAM: A 27-year-old woman who works part-time as a clinic assistant has lodged a police report against a doctor for allegedly molesting her in his clinic.
The single mother with two children claimed that the 41-year-old doctor had asked her to stay back on the pretext of wanting to discuss work matters with her last Saturday.
The woman said she felt uneasy when she saw the doctor tidying the bed in the examination room while she waited to have their discussion.
She alleged that the doctor switched off the lights in the room, grabbed her hand and hugged her.
She said she managed to free herself and went to lodge a report at the Central Seberang Prai district police headquarters in Bandar Perda.

One Week On.. Burning More Expensive Petrol

Today I just topped up my fuel tank for the first time after price hike. Not a pleasant experience to see the gasoline amount ticks going up and up (kekeke, very different from watching stocks price ticking up :D ). And it is official, I have gained a whopping 14% mileage efficiency after a challenging week, feel like a champion now. Don't play play. Here are the tips, some are actually from this article (http://talkonlymah.blogspot.com/2008/06/toms-top-pick-this-week-tips-to-gain.html)

1. Turn off the Air Con - The harder it blows, the more petrol will be burned off. I am lucky that certain parts of my commuting journey to and fro works are smooth enough for me to turn off the air con and open up just a small slit of windows for ventilation. As a guy, can tahan lah.
2. Go easy with the pedal - Not the piano pedals lah.. the gas pedal. This is tough, for a guy. If you can try not to ramp it up to 3K rpm, that's good for the engine and your pocket. By the way, it is okay to be called sissy driver though. wahahah.
3. Avoid stop-go stop-go - Traffic lights we can't avoid, but certain points (like stop over to buy newspaper, tapao.. blah blah blah..) can be controlled lah. Sometimes it may require you to walk a bit if you decide to consolidate all the trivial activities. That's good news for a guy, the more you walk, the better blood circulation in your groin area (performance up leh). wahahaha. No offense to female readers, do encourage your bf or hubby to walk more leh... wakakaka.

That's all for now. My next plan is to get a voltage stabilizer as some say it can get about 10% fuel efficiency. Let's see how it goes lah.

Need some charge-up this morning?

Leadership in Three Simple Steps

Leadership is about supporting and building employee morale and productivity...To maintain and build high performance work relationships you must focus on three core ideas: reduce ambiguity, be fair and stay positive.

Reduce Ambiguity
People hate the unknown, the unclear and the unnecessarily complex... assumptions are rarely correct. Typically, they are negative and self-serving. All of this is time not spent working productively because you failed to go the extra few steps required to really reduce ambiguity.
...With great communication and clear performance goals you will go a long way towards reducing unnecessary employee ambiguity.

Be Fair
This does not mean treating people the same. You only want to treat people identically in terms of creating an environment where expectations are clear and opportunities are open to everyone...
One vital key to not only being fair, but being perceived as fair, is to allow people a voice in shaping decisions that affect them...

Stay Positive
Positive emotions (just like negative emotions) are infectious...
Next, realize that to be a leader is to be a cheerleader....

Another T.A. - Tongkat Ali

If you mention Tongkat Ali in Malaysia, you will probably be seeing many grinning faces. Literal translation of Tongkat Ali to English is"Ali's Staff". Ali is a rather common first name for Malay Malaysians here, perhaps just as common as Smith to White Americans.
Let's see what does Wikipedia say about Tongkat Ali.. "Eurycoma longifolia Jack (aka, longjack or Tongkat Ali or Pasak Bumi) is a flowering plant in the family Simaroubaceae, native to Indonesia and Malaysia...Eurycoma longifolia has become popular for its alleged testosterone-enhancing properties.." Heheh, pretty interesting huh. Tell me how effective it is if you have tried it before :D

Pelvic floor exercises good for men too

Pelvic floor exercises for men have been found to be highly effective in restoring erectile function according to recently published research. Research at the Faculty of Health and Social Care at the University of the West of England, Bristol, shows that pelvic floor exercises result in the same overall improvement rate seen in a large trial of men taking Viagra.

Fifty-five men with an average age of 59 years who had experienced erectile dysfunction for 6 months or more took part in the trial, based at the Somerset Nuffield Hospital, Taunton. Dr Grace Dorey, who led the research, found that 40% of these men regained normal function, 35.5% improved, whilst 25.5% failed to improve. She also found that men 65.5% of men with erectile dysfunction also had a dribble of urine after urinating and that this embarrassing condition improved dramatically using pelvic floor muscle exercises.

The pelvic floor exercises were taught by Dr Grace Dorey who is a Specialist Continence Physiotherapist. The men were given 5 weekly sessions of these exercises with biofeedback and assessed at 3 and 6 months and practised daily home exercises.
