Private and evening tours can be arranged. Contact SMCCU for details. Private visits can be conducted in other languages with prior notice.

Discipline teacher
According to a news report, a certain private school in Washington was recently faced with a unique problem. A number of 12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on their lip stick, they would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip prints.
Every night the janitor would remove them, and the next day the girls would put them back.
Finally the principal decided that something had to be done. She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints were causing a major problem for the janitor who had to clean the mirrors every night (you can just imagine the yawns from the little princesses).

A ribbon
Before he ordered, he couldn't help but notice a group of younger men at the table next to him. It was obvious they were making fun of something about him, and it wasn't until he remembered he was wearing a small pink ribbon on the lapel of his suit that he became aware of what the joke was all about.
The man brushed off the reaction as ignorance, but the smirks began to get to him.
With that the men all began to laugh out loud.
The man he addressed said, as he fought back laughter,
The middle aged man calmly motioned for the joker to come over to his table and invited him to sit down The guy obliged, not really sure why. In a soft voice, the middle aged man said,
"I wear this ribbon to bring awareness about breast cancer. I wear it in my mother's honour."
"No, she didn't. She's alive and well. But her breasts nourished me as an infant and were a soft resting place for my head when I was scared or lonely as a little boy. I'm very grateful for my mother's
"Umm," the stranger replied, "Yeah."
"And she's okay, too?" the other guy asked.
My daughter died of breast cancer one month ago. She thought she was too young to have breast cancer, so when she accidentally noticed a small lump, she ignored it.
The guy looked at it, slowly raised his head and asked, "Can ya help me put it on?"
This is breast cancer awareness month. Practice regular breast awareness / self-exam and encourage those women you love to do the same.
"Take care of the mind, and the mind will take care of you, including this body."

New Car
While we don’t have a great deal of information available at this stage, we do know that Volkswagen is set to reveal the world’s most economical non-hybrid car to shareholders attending the 42nd annual general meeting of Volkswagen AG in Hamburg.
The single-seater is capable of 0.91 litres per 100km (or 258mpg in the old measure) and can manage a top speed of 123km/h.
The prototype, as shown here, was built in conditions of such great secrecy that little more is known about the car, but we’ll be sure to keep you posted after next week’s meeting.
Will be selling for 4000 yuan, equivalent to US$600..
Gas tank capacity = 1.7 gallons
Speed = 62 - 74.6 Miles/hour
Fuel efficiency = 258 miles/gallon
Travel distance with a full tank = 404 miles
Fikrah:-
1) Welcome to the new world of automotive industries... can Proton catch up?
2) FYI, US600 is more or less about RM2400. Plus 600% tax, so, it is about RM14400. After AFTA 2010 (Malaysia), there'll be no more this tax... so, it remains RM2400..
3) At least, it is much safer than honda EX5, and cheaper as well! good deal?
So, interested?
Through our Window
>> Bunkface <<
You and me
We are together now
Through my window,
More than you
Me and you
And we are not alone
Different view
We are together now
Through my window, I can see
I see a spark, it starts a fire
Is this the one worth waiting for?
Thought that I could do it without you
Cant exist like this anymore
And we are not alone
You and me
We are together now
Through my window, I can see there's
More than you and more than me
Now theres me and you, you and me
We are not alone and we are together
Through my window I can see
Our wildest dreams could be so real
