Cut In Half Magic Trick

This is the cut in half prank done by a magician. See how he scares everyone. Believe that the first one who invented this trick was David Copperfield. But I could be wrong. Anyone knows how this trick is done? It is actually quite simple. The person is basically in a sitting position and the clothes are specially made. At least that is what I think.

Jeff Gundlach on Japan, Apple and Bubbles

Jeffrey Gundlach, the new "bond king", shares with Reuters some wealth strategies and gives his take on Japan, Apple and bubbles.

Dog Gets Shot By Police

A dog gets shot by the police after it tries to protect its owner. Disturbing footages if you are a dog owner.

Gangnam Style - Jayesslee

This is another really cool version of Gangnam Style done by Jayesslee. I believe that they are sisters. Really nice and some what similar to the acoustic version of Gangnam Style done by Steph Micayle

Burger Taste Test : Beef or Horse

So the latest news on the horse meat scandal is that IKEA's meatballs have been implicated too. Well, there is no idea yet whether Singapore has been affected. Anyway, here is a burger taste test video.

Thierry Henry Returning to Arsenal

Thierry Henry looks like he could be returning to Arsenal for his third stint. The Frenchman has a close relationship with Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger and is also Arsenal's all-time record goalscorer. He has scored 226 goals during 1999 to 2007 and 2 goals during his loan spell from New York Red Bulls last season.

Henry's deal is set to expire soon and rumours seems to suggest that he could be set for a return to the Emirates.

Beatrice Miller - Titanium

A really nice Judge's House song by X Factor 2012 (USA) contestant, Beatrice Miller, who sang the song Titanium by David Guetta. I liked her style and the of course the background of the judge's house. Stunningly beautiful.

Well, if you like her voice, then be sure to check out her song that she performed with Carly Rose Sonenclar at Bootcamp. Well, Carly Rose Sonenclar is another ultra talented girl with an amazing voice who can sing real well. Check out her song at the judge's house as well as her audition song.

Man Stuck in Elevator for 40 Hours

In 1999, a man was stuck for close to 40 hours in an elevator. This time lapse video shows how he spent those 40 hours. Perhaps this was the time before hand phones became prevalent so he did not have one on him.

Saizen REIT - Dividends Declared But What Lies Ahead

So Saizen REIT has declared a half yearly distribution of 0.66 cents. Based on its share price of 19 cents, it gives a pretty good yield of close to 7%. Yes, this is a pretty high yield compared to other REITs listed on the Singapore stock exchange. You probably can't find yields like those in the US stock market too unless they are mortgage REITs.

Anyway, if you read one of my previous posts, you should know that Saizen is on my watchlist. (Okay, it is actually already in my stock portfolio but I am watching it to see if I should buy more).

Found this good video on Saizen. Any investor who wants to invest in Saizen should watch this video first as it gives a good overview of Saizen and its business and also explains why it probably trades at a discount to its net asset value. Here Mark Laudi interviews Raymond Wong (Executive Director at Saizen REIT). He asks him some tough questions that any investor should be asking.

Let me know what you all think about Saizen REIT..

Amy Winehouse - I'm No Good

I love this live version of I'm No Good that was sung by the late Amy Winehouse. Really has soul and there is something about her that makes her different from other singers. She is perhaps a true blue entertainer.

Unfortunately, her life ended while she was probably at the peak (or what could have possibly been the peak) of her career. If not for her dabbling in drugs. The video below is a sad reminder: If only she had gone to rehab.

James Arthur Rendition of Tulisa's Young - X Factor UK 2012 Audition

James Arthur is the winner of X Factor UK 2012. This is a video of this audition song where he sang an acoustic version of Tulisa's Young. In my opinion, his acoustic/rap version is much better than the original version. (Check out other top ten X Factor audition videos here)

Mentored under Nicole Sherzinger, James Arthur made it against the odds to emerge the winner. During the show, he lost his girlfriend but is now rumoured to be dating Caroline Flack (X Factor host).

If you love this acoustic version of the song, check out this acoustic version of Gangnam Style too.

Gangnam Style Acoustic Version - Better than the Original?

A talented Singapore singer gives an acoustic spin to Psy's Gangnam Style. She doesn't speak Korean but this version of the song is really catchy. Her name is Steph Micayle.

Jeffrey Gundach's Picks and Outlook

Jeffrey Gundlach is co-founder of DoubleLine Capital LP and also its chief executive. He correctly predicted the subprime mortgage disaster and is one of the world's leading bond fund manager. In fact, he is sitting on cash because he sees bleak times ahead. He is favoring protection over growth in the next 1-2 years. He believes the opportunity for sitting on cash is much larger than if you were to be invested for growth now.

Regarding the European Union, he sees a possible break-up and does not think that the Euro is going to work. The question boils down to Germany being able to forgo the gains that it had obtained from the single currency.

He recommends buying hard assets like gemstones, art, commercial real estate. DoubleLine has also been buying the stocks of Chinese companies, U.S. natural gas producers and gold-mining firms. It is funny that he is now into equities given that he operates bond funds.

Jesus is Lord by Daniel K.L. Chua

Just sharing an inspirational song that I heard some years back in church. I am somewhat surprised that this song is not more widely sung in churches and I have yet to come across any other video on this song in Youtube thus far. I hope this song ministers to you whatever station that you may be in your life.

Lyrics and Music of the song by Daniel K.L. Chua

Jesus is Lord, behold the King of Kings

Exalted high, the name above all names

I sing his praise, the Lamb upon the throne

Who reigns in glory, power and majesty

This is my God, behold his hands and side

The wounds of love, that healed my brokenness

What God is this? What kind of sacrifice

Would give so much to gain a loveless soul?

For me to live is Christ to die is gain

For Christ has died that I might gain his life

He is my All, my joy, my righteousness

My hope of glory when he comes to reign

Yes, suddenly, my God shall come again

And every name shall bow before his name

And he shall reign, forever on the throne

And in his glory there I shall proclaim

JESUS is LORD

Blessed Christmas to All Readers

Christmas is coming in exactly 3 days. And less we forget the true meaning about Christmas, it is not about the presents, or the good food that we fill our tummies with. Neither is it about the gatherings, or shopping for presents or whatever retailers will have you believe.

Christmas is to celebrate the birth of Jesus - the greatest gift to all mankind.

Hundreds of years before Jesus' birth, the prophet Isaiah said: "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."

I leave you with this beautiful rendition of Oh Come Oh Come Immanuel by the Franz Family. Enjoy and blessed Christmas to all readers.

Jimmy Kimmel - Lie Detector

Funny video where Jimmy Kimmel hooks up kids to a "lie detector" machine. Just for laughs.
