<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">A very <em>(in)</em>famous case emerged today just as I stepped out of my office. The moment I browsed my iPad to keep up with the news, I saw that a high profile person has just been terminated of her service for making a condescending comment about the Malays on her Facebook account. For more information, you can check out <a href="http://www.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/Singapore/Story/A1Story20121008-376209.html">this link</a> for the news.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">A while later, when I got home, I saw the news that she had promptly <a href="http://news.asiaone.com/News/Latest%2BNews/Singapore/Story/A1Story20121008-376333.html">apologised</a>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This is such a fine example of how one&#8217;s folly get the better of oneself. Apparently, some people are actually wondering why a highly educated person like her, with a right mind, would make such condescending and racially sensitive comments over social media. This is not the first time a Singaporean make such foolish move over the Internet. It is a seditious act, and to be arrested by the authority, is not a joke.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">To answer this, let&#8217;s just say that a criminal will not think twice about committing an offence like taking drugs. All a criminal does is to act and behave criminally, even though he or she knows that it is an offence. Why is it so?</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">&#8220;Because that&#8217;s the only way to do it!&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">&#8220;That&#8217;s the only solution to my pleasure!&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">&#8220;That&#8217;s the pathway to getting things off my chest, for a while!&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">And when asked if he or she thinks there is another way, this criminal would think twice, three times, or more&#8230; then probably come up with an answer, &#8220;not really&#8221;.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">My first few weeks in my career made me learn something about people who break the law &#8211; they cannot see the big picture. Their minds are so narrowly focused on a target solution to ease their pain, their sufferings, their anguish or their plight, such that they failed to take a few steps back to examine their thoughts and consequences. And as they continue to repeat this fixation on this one-way street, they will be caught up in a vicious cycle of constantly making the same mistakes over again.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">To conclude, I think people need to see things in a larger perspective, and to consider alternatives to their problems, instead of being enslaved by their narrow-mindedness and ignorance.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Anyway, <em>HEY</em>, who says high education keeps one immune from folly and utter ignorance?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ngamo.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/img_8585.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1469" title="Nala" src="http://ngamo.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/img_8585.jpg?w=474&#038;h=378" alt="" width="474" height="378" /></a></p>
<p>We’ve begun to catch the Ngamo lions being fairly active during midday hours these last few days. With no large kill made for a week it appears the girls are beginning to try their luck within their normal sleeping hours for hunting opportunities.  On the 16<sup>th</sup> we stumbled across Nala at water hole 2 stalking some nearby impala and zebra. At first we suspected sister Narnia to be in the area also locked onto the herd, however it soon became apparent Nala as on her own hunting mission.  As the game began to move off into Etosha, Nala broke her cover and stealthily glided close past our vehicle, muscles twitching with anticipation.</p>
<p><a href="http://ngamo.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/img_8589.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1470" title="Impala" src="http://ngamo.files.wordpress.com/2012/02/img_8589.jpg?w=510&#038;h=340" alt="" width="510" height="340" /></a></p>
<p>The herd, still contently grazing, moved behind a small thicket creating a perfect ambush opportunity for Nala. Nala decided to take advantage of the cover and began to move in closer upon them. Unfortunately though one pesky impala had spotted her. The impala quickly alerted her fellow herd members and all fled in unison.</p>
<p>Appearing most frustrated Nala turned abruptly on her heels in the opposite direction and headed into Serengeti East. Little did the miffed lioness realise though that the hunter had become the hunted. The large impala herd followed Nala closely as she skulked away into the grass. The zebra snorted whilst the impala scraped their hooves upon the ground defensively. Following a predator and making themselves visible may seem a foolish move, but a predator you can see is far less dangerous than one you cannot!</p>

<description><![CDATA[Gordon with wife Tana For those who are not so familiar with this story, celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsa]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_15161" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 310px"><a rel="attachment wp-att-15161" href="http://madnews.wordpress.com/2010/11/10/uk-news-tv-chef-gordon-ramsay-sends-open-letter-to-his-mother-in-law-after-firing-father-in-law/ramsaytana/"><img class="size-medium wp-image-15161" title="ramsaytana" src="http://madnews.files.wordpress.com/2010/11/ramsaytana.jpg?w=300&#038;h=267" alt="" width="300" height="267" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Gordon with wife Tana</p></div>
<p>For those who are not so familiar with this story, celebrity Chef Gordon Ramsay fired his business partner of 12 years several weeks ago, after a huge argument.  Gordon’s now former business partner Chris Hutcheson is also his father-in-law.</p>
<p>As you can imagine this has caused a huge family rift and Gordon has foolishly sent an open letter to his mother-in-law Greta which was published in yesterday’s <em>Evening Standard</em>.</p>
<p>Gordon says he wrote the letter in response to Greta’s letter to her daughter (his wife) Tana asking that she stay away from her family.</p>
<p><em>The Kitchen Nightmares </em>star wrote,</p>
<p><em><a rel="attachment wp-att-15160" href="http://madnews.wordpress.com/2010/11/10/uk-news-tv-chef-gordon-ramsay-sends-open-letter-to-his-mother-in-law-after-firing-father-in-law/letter415/"></a></em></p>
<blockquote><p><strong><em>Dear Mother in Law,</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>This has to be one of the most painful letters I&#8217;ve ever had to write. Listening to Tana in floods of tears reading your letter from you asking that she stays away from her family is so awfully wrong. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Removing my father in law from my business has been the hardest and most important decision in my entire life. For a decade, his manipulation and controlling of so many lives has finally come to an end.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Chris recently suggested my mood swings were down to involvement with drugs; my god did that hurt. How dare he ever suggest this on the back of my frustration and dealings with my younger brother and his addiction.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>To curb my suspicions, I employed a private detective and the situation started to unravel very quickly. The very complex life that Chris leads, has seen many of my key staff feeling they have had to cover on his behalf. His away days were rarely what I thought they were. But beyond that, one of my biggest concerns was the business: signing huge contracts in my name and furthermore discovering emails were being looked at.The office became stifled and the air of relief at Gordon Ramsay Holdings, knowing that we don&#8217;t need to pretend any longer, is a breath of fresh air. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>Three weeks ago today when I met with my team to explain the situation, you could instantly see the relief and joy on their faces. His role as CEO of Gordon Ramsay holdings in the end felt like he was running the business as a dictator. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>My relationship with my chefs has been, and always will be, amazing. To see them, as individuals chefs, flourish and having now made their way to some of the most prominent chefs in the country, gives me nothing but pride and joy. </em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>The creative chefs we turned into partners, the harder they worked, the more profit they generated, but when they requested a share of the profits, their departure was seemingly imminent, something I wasn&#8217;t comfortable with.</em></strong></p>
<p><strong><em>I know how hard this must be for you Greta, and I&#8217;m not expecting a birthday card today, but your punishing your daughter and our four children, for all the wrong reasons, it&#8217;s so sad. She&#8217;s an amazing woman and you&#8217;ve been a fantastic mum – please don&#8217;t stop!</em></strong></p></blockquote>
<p>Going public with this letter isn’t going to mend fences Gordon. You have just made matters worse for your wife by sending this open letter (instead of sending it directly to your mother-in-law via Royal Mail) and practically throwing your father in law under a bus by writing this , ‘<em>To curb my suspicions, I employed a private detective and the situation started to unravel very quickly. The very complex life that Chris leads, has seen many of my key staff feeling they have had to cover on his behalf. His away days were rarely what I thought they were.</em></p>
<p>If you had spent more time concentrating on the running of your now struggling businesses, and less time believing your own hype and focusing on your various TV projects, then perhaps all this drama might have been avoided.</p>
