epi-lasik eye surgery

Hi, I heard of this new form of lasik surgery... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epi-LASIK basically it does not involve any form of cutting into the cornea and supposed to be safer. Has anyone done it? It is much more expensive than conventional Lasik but I think well worth if it is actually safer and...

Where to find Allermin?

I have some allergy problems (mostly due to dust mites) and I'm looking for this herbal supplement. Years ago a friend gave me a trial sample and it worked great. However I can't seem to find it here. Any ideas where I can get this? Or are there some alternatives? http://www.hankintatukku.com/Allerm...

Thanks... bought a couple already... but limited selections anyway. I found one at G2000 and a few at DANO (at Jurong Point). Maybe I will try Polo Ralph Lauren as well.

shopping qn: where to find women's shirt with french cuff?

Not sure where to post this... Well I was given a pair of cuff links (the girly type with floral designs) by a diplomat friend. :???: (probably sees me as a future globe-trotting pencil-pusher) Well, anyway, I like them a lot but now I need to find a shirt to go with it. Where do I get one of these ...

Hi guys, Aside from the Mental Health Institute (woodbridge) and SGH, which are good places to go see a psychologist/therapist for depression? Any good individuals to recommend?

Thanks for the info. They always seem even more expensive lately the last time I saw them (outside singapore). Anyway I have not experienced any changes in weight whatsoever with them. But then everyone is different.

I have a friend who is interested too. We are novice riders. Riders Lodge is very nice but we're open to different options as well! I'm not sure about what will be on my calander but I hope to make this a regular thing.--in this case we have to somehow make the cost of each trip reasonably affordable.

Hi, I am returning to Singapore soon and would like to continue riding. Earlier this year we drove up to Riders' Lodge in Johor and it was an excellent place to ride, very friendly atmosphere and food was great too. I'm also interested in joining anyone along up for a ride up to Johor. Much more fun...

Hi, question in the title...

I'm currently on Yasmin birth control pills, and they seem to be the only ones that worked for me. They were prescribed by my doc. Which pharmacies carry them? Would like to know if I need to stock up.

Here's the manufactuer's site: http://www.yasmin.com/html/index.html

Great tip! Thanks for the link. I was beginning to feel intellectually stagnant, in need of new learning, new knowledge, beyond what I'm getting through my own reading. Good to know of a new resource. Looking over the list of languages, it still seems sort of limited. In particular, anyone know of ...
