Bookfest @ Singapore 2007


Halo friends,

I was at the Popular's Bookfest @ Singapore 2007 on Sunday 23rd Dec and thought wanted to share with you in case you have not been there before or heard of it before (especially friends from other countries).

The Bookfest is one of Singapore's largest and most successful book fairs and happended at the Suntec Singapore International Convention and Exhibition Centre from 14 to 23 Dec 2007, cooupying an area od 120,000 sq ft, showcased the best and latest collection of books, stationary, educational reads, electronic and multimedia products.

The inaugural BookFest in 2006 was a big success and attracted close to 320,000 visitors. Seems like this year there are more, thou i do not have the exact numbers.

Durring my recent trip there, it took me more than 4 hours in order to browse through the sections, and yah, i only browse through,and it took me 4 hours to finish one round of it. Spent most of my time at the Self-Improvement and Motivational Book Section where you find famous books/authors such as Chicken Soup for the Soul, Tony Buzan Mindmap, Anthony Robbins Unlimited Power & The Giants Within, as well as Relationship guru, Dr. John Gray, etc and many more.

In the end, i did not purchase any books (cos i have couple more to finish up at home) but spend bucks on Multimedia Headphone Set and a self-adhesive pin-up board.

So, see ypu again BookFest in 2008!

Halo,

Perharps another one of Terrys..

Lyrics:

I thought that I
Was over you
But its true, so true

I love you even more
Than I did before
But darling, what can I do

For you don't love me
And I'll always be

Crying, over you
Crying, over you
Yes, now you're gone
And from this moment on

I will be crying
Crying, crying, crying
Yeah, crying, crying
Over You

Enjoy

I see trees of green
Red roses too
I see them bloom
For me and you

And I think to myself
What a Wonderful World

The colors of the rainbows
So pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces
Of people going by

I see friends shaking hands
Saying - How do you do?
They're only saying
I love you

And I think to myself
What a Wonderful World

Ohhhhh, yesss...

Pyramid to have Copyrights


Hi,

I was reading through today local papers and came across an article that i find it so amusing. Decided that i must share with you 1st hand.

Egypt is planning to pass a law that would allow them to collect royalty payments from anyone found making copies of the country's ancient monuments or museum pieces, including the pyramids. According to reports, Egypt wanted to own the copyright to its historic monuments and would use any money raised to pay for the upkeep of its most prestigious tourists sites.

It seems that the law had been agreed by a ministerial committee and would go before the Parliament, where it was expected to be passed easily. It would then apply anywhere in the world. Nothing was mentioned on how Cairo (Egypt's provincial capital) would begin the fraught task of tackling any infringements of copyrights.

The law will apply to fullscale, precise copies of any musuem objects or "commercial us" of ancient monumnents, including the pyramids or the sphinx. They have commented that it will aplly even it is for private use, they would need permission from the Egypt government.

This law would not prevent artists from drawing images of the monuments or historic sites, as long as the images were not exact copies. Gosh, it seems that we may have to pay in future when we wanna take a picture of the Pyramids. How will this going to benefit the tourism industry of Egypt and its economy, i ponder.
