Face/palm are "recorders" of one's past => does this mean past events ? Therefore no need to bother since most look forward to future ? Eg i am not interested in my childhood days as it already past ?

Went to the library, saw Joey Yap - alot of DVD ...so i ask a) If bazi is fixed (ok he gave a good introduction), why he also produce Face-reading dvd ? I believe most of us here believe bazi is the way to go (i mean more or less cover a human life) ...why must face or palm reading exists ? Does face / palm reading complement or make-up for any deficiency for bazi ? Ok lai lai - debate debate.

hmmm i know what you mean. It is common for bizman to get the cheapest labour ...BUT For ipad - designed by US. Produced by china. I am sure there must be quality checks to ensure ipad is workable to minimum standards. For this sofa, how would i know the leather materials are from Italy ? Workmanship i guess - must produce at a lower country base, but quality checks must be done by the original country eg Italy.

Hi Is the above brand or leather good ? What kind of leather they use ?

Hi Collins Can i arrange your staff to come to look at my existing condo apartment and then recommend the LED lights i need ? I know what are the lights to change and i prefer some specialists to come down and discuss further. Also your folks can take measurements and i want to change quite a number of lights to LED. Otherwise going to your shop inconvenient myself and i don't know what to buy.

Hi guys, I just came in and saw a few interesting comments raised by the few "towkays" factories. CAn i PM you privately if i wish to buy a personal sofa set - top leather hor ...What i hope is to get "reasonable" disounts from you folks :-) Oh yes, one more thing - i want to polish my sofa set to get ready for chinese new year ..can the towkay PM a contact ? At the same time, if i engaged your "sofa polish" contact, can they tell me what kind of leather sofa i have ? I can provide invoices, etc. I am not here to challenge my old sofa purchase done years back, if the specailists like you can tell me what is the reasonable amount i should pay, then i know whether my last retailer cheated me by overselling the price. In business, definitely must make profit. But a consumer like me wishes to pay a reasonable price, that's all p/s : sorry to tag on EL thread, as i've not purchase anything from them yet, thus my comments are not directed at them.

Hi Sam Can you assist me offline ? I am interested in teak-wood for personal furniture consumption. I mean i would like to know who are the reliable retailers for teak-wood. So far the only purchase i made is from barossa - david is the name and he is the english man.

Ren Chen year (2012) - as stated by one of the members above - which element it represents ?

Folks I am just curious about something on bazi. According to bazi, one is born of one of the 5 elements. Can i say that for each year (not the person birthday year), there is also an element for year 2012, year 2013, etc ? For this equation, i consider it a normal calendar year. Why for bazi, there is element change every x years (eg 8-18, 19-29, etc) - how does this compare to a normal calendar year ? Which one takes precedance ? I hope i phase my questions correctly.

I am no very good in chinese. Do we key in western date or chinese date from the bazi url ?

if things are fixed and without alternation, perhaps i would like to know the following : a) can these masters predict or tell the truth on the person accidents or death ? This way we can buy insurance at a later point and no need to "buy" insurance earlier - save cost ? At least we can control our money on what to buy or not to buy.

ok i know this is just one of the character in the 8 characters, but i am not asking on accuracy, etc I am curious, WHEN does a FS master starts to forcast on a yearly basis ? Only coming to cny ? I thought they are expert and they can forcast many years in advance ? But how come FS master starts appearing as it near cny ? Advertisment ?

Bro, have u try his service before ? If u have try his service before and his consultation (i don't want to use the word prediction) has a high level of accuracy on those years applicable to you, that i would say Chang can be considered. What is comprehensive ? I met him before, and everything is hand-written and i hve to take notes. I rather he has a template, where i can then ask questions on each element and its behavior.

97288872 - shopless, (on the move so iras cannot catch him ..just kidding :-)

i guess u met the sharks ! i agreed with u that they should not discuss about future (too far off - maybe within ONE year) since who can predict anything up to 70 years old. And i also agree with u on bazi element - talks about charactistics (which i don't have to know since i am myself). Perhaps i should ask for one to 3 year advice instead ?

Hi Although bazi calculations can be available in web, etc eg Joey Yap website ...I want to know who can interpret to me as a consumer, not as a student. Can anyone recommend a good master ? What is the costs like ? Honestly i've not got a chance for someone to interpret my bazi before.

There are 3 categories of lion dance troups in the industry a) traditional b) sports type c) house hopping type. a) Traditional dance troups command highest pay per dance. Minimum is $388. Advantages are they have clans and train wushu / lion dance in traditional ways. Punctuality is always there, so u can assured of your guests not waiting for them during cny. They do not believe in "fanciful" jumping up and down and perhaps safety comes first. They rather maintain old customer relationship than to find a new customers to get extra for cny. And they don't kan cheong try to make profits by maximising customers in each cny day and they do not perform half-**** dance in front of customer. Traditional trps need to make at least 1-2 month booking in advance. Their sifu is always on-site to make sure the senior students perform their best dance for each customer. b) Sports type participate in those competitions. Price range from $188 to $288 to undercut other trp price. Mostly comprises of students (sometimes not senior students but junior students dance for u) - but you don't know about it. They can be late, and your guests can be kept waiting with frustrations. Schools or Comumunity centers have this trp and they send them out for cny to maximise profits. c) House hopping type or hawker hopping type - as what u say "one ang pow" can liao. Can be $2 to $8. They come in pray pray a few minutes and move to another place. They are not invited by customers, but because of cny mood, many "cheapo" households say "come in and dance" to get the cny bangs and sounds. Sometimes malays take advantages of it and take opportunity to dance. And also, they do not hold legal license to dance (but who cares right ?) I know alot of people in this industry as i've been engaging lion dance and dragon dance in my apartments for many years. I would suggest that if cost is an issue, stick to minimum option B. If you ever engage (a), stick with them for a long-term relationship. Since i first time wrote so much (more than bro begof), i always pick (a) and never downgrade. Per dance i can pay up to $488 and each year i usually have at least 3 dances for that cny period. Many friends and guests all look forward to coming my place. If you are a person who like guest to come to your place (house fengshui must have REN QI - human relationship) - then lion dance is a good starting point to meet friends for each cny. Govt banned fire-works, if you are parents yourself, don't ban lion dance for your children. Let them know that this is part of chinese culture. Otherwise our children will think it is just another "hi and bye" dinner.

Oops, i only just thought that since his house layout is pretty straight forward (without any major blockage and looks big), thought of just asking him to have a lion dance to spring up cny. No particular fs strategies in mind. hmm, can explain a little bit more of having good annual stars ?

me not an expert or even a novice in fs ...but All i know is ...chinese new year coming, bring the lion dance in direct from the door and enjoy the dance :-)

my experience on shoe cabinets - never put inside the house, as shoes inside the house smell bad. Therefore i rather u look for 2nd hand show cabinets and put outside the house.

me not a leather expert ... But what i see is that it is not real leather (from layman term). How much did u buy ?

i would say "Congrats" on your new move-in as i know the joy of looking forward into that . Long time never happen to me liao. Maybe should buy a apartment like threadstarter and enjoy the "joy" of moving in :-)

wow, i didn't know of all these expense items as a whole (although i know it individually). Is there an example where i can enter values in excel and calculate by itself ? Measure over 1 year is good. Freehold means no depreciation ?

Hi I always read papers on rental yield is x%. How is it calculated ? What are the parameters to consider ?
