Saw this on Facebook awhile ago. After reading everything, I decided to repost this so that everybody will know about this terrible incident. Note: This is a true story of Kristine Singson. She posted the content below on her profile to warn others about the said incident.

Superklasse Wednesday

After four months of not going to a club (LITERALLY), I finally did to show some support for one of my best friends, Mel and to see friends who I haven’t seen for the longest longest longest time. It was the first time I’ve ever set foot in Encore (to think I used to go to Embassy every week). It felt surreal to be out and without my boyfriend, LJ, who couldn’t come due to an early class the following day.

I only had 4 drinks: 3 Amaretto Sours and a Mai Tai. It felt good seeing a lot of my friends. We took so many pictures that my fully charged camera went low bat. Anyway, Mel and I decided to leave Encore by 2:30 A.M. Our friends stayed behind since the club closes at 3 A.M. Mel and I were taking separate cabs since she goes home to Mandaluyong and I to Makati. I WAS COMPLETELY SOBER. Not even a bit tipsy.

I remember telling her as we were leaving the club “It’s my first time going home in a cab alone from this club.” Mel was a bit concerned, even offering me to stay over her place for the night.. I told her not to worry, I ALWAYS get home safely.

Today was a kind of busy day for me. Know why? I had this “general cleaning” thingy the whole morning till noontime (whew!) and around 2 o’clock in the afternoon, I brought my lil kiddo in her pedia for a check-up. She’s been sick for 3-4 days already. She’s having “sipon” or colds + she started coughing just last night. I believe she was allergic to some dusts here in our house. I admit that our house is quite old and even though how hard you try clean it, it still has dusts all over. That’s the main reason why I had the “general cleaning” thingy. LOL. Moving on, after my lil kiddo’s check-up, I safely drove her home and head on to the mall near our house to buy a new mattress foam. Aside from that, I went also to the bookstore to buy some textbooks for my 8 year old cousin. When I arrived home, I was so tired and just wanted to sleep in my bed right away. LOL.

Familiar with Mesothelioma? Have you heard of it? It is actually a form of cancer that is almost always caused by previous exposure to asbestos. In this disease, malignant cells develop in the mesothelium, a protective lining that covers most of the body’s internal organs.

Mesothelioma

Most people who develop Mesothelioma cancer have worked on jobs where they inhaled asbestos particles, or they have been exposed to asbestos dust and fiber in other ways. Washing the clothes of a family member who worked with asbestos can also put a person at risk for developing mesothelioma.

 

Positions to avoid

The illustration above — from weblog Core77′s netbook case study — highlights ten common usage positions and the pain points you’re asking for down the road with each. (No one wants glowing red joints!) Interestingly, the most comfortable position, according to the study, is position #2 above: lying down with the device slightly elevated on the user’s thigh with bent knees.

Most of the time, I do position #1, #4, and #7. I didn’t know that the best position of them all is #2. Err, if I’ll be able to do that kind of position, it’s quite uneasy for me since my 17′ Toshiba Satellite laptop is a little bit heavy. Hmm, later at night, I’ll try to do position #2. Let me see if it will work on me. LOL.
