beauty With A Purpose

Many Miss World contestants support charities
to make their status as most beautiful woman of
their country work for some of the poorest and
disadvantaged people on this planet. Malawi, for
example, supports the UNICEF World for Food Programme,
Ukraine works as a volunteer with orphaned children,
Venezuela has been organizing integration activities
for children with special needs.

"Adventure for the adventureous by the adventurer"

Formally established recently, the crew of Outdoor Malaysia
has been in existence as a unit quite sometimes ago. Some of
us have been in outdoor adventure projects together since the
early nineties. During the economics downturn of the nineties,
most of us lost our steady indoor jobs. With nothing more to
loose, we decided to become full time adventurer thus the
formation of the company. By sharing our experience and
passion with the rest of the world, we hope that we can
put some bread (some "nasi" in our Malaysian context)
on the table for the families.

All in a Day's Work

I do the water and sewer billing for a small
city in Washington State. Customers complained
about our postcard-sized bills -- which they
said looked too much like junk mail -- so we
decided to start sending full-sized bills in
envelopes. The month before we made the switch,
I had a note printed on the cards, announcing
the change. Two days later, I heard someone
yelling at our receptionist, "Is this some
kind of joke?" When the customer threw his
bill on the desk, I saw his point. The note
was printed: "Coming Soon! New Larger Bills!"
