Share with you some interesting facts that I have read regarding recession, what people do to save and cut cost….

1. US states may axe executions to cut costs.
   

   Reason given: Carrying out the death penalty can leave a state footing a bill that is 10 times higher than for an inmate serving life imprisonment.
   

   Activists have calculated that in Kansas the cost of executing a prisoner is 70 percent higher than keeping someone in prison. The bill for a death row inmate tops 1.26 million dollars, while for someone serving life imprisonment costs 740,000 dollars, according to the Death Penalty Information Center (DPIC)
   

2. Retrench… your mistress
   

   A married Chinese tycoon who could no longer afford to support his five mistresses during the economic slowdown held a contest to decide which one to keep. The contest took a tragic turn when one of the mistresses, who was eliminated based on her looks, drove her former lover and the four other women off a mountain road in an apparent fit of anger, the Shanghai Daily reported.

Song by Hillsong United

Your mercy found me,
Upon the broken road,
And lifted me beyond my failing,
Into Your glory,
My sin and shame dissolved,
And now forever Yours I'll stand.

(Pre-Chorus)
In love never to end,
To call You more than Lord,
Glorious friend.

(Chorus)
So I throw my life upon all that You are,
'Cause I know You gave it all for me,
And when all else fades,
My soul will dance with You,
Where the love lasts forever.

(Bridge)
And forever I will sing,
Lord forever I will sing,
Of how You gave Your life away,
Just to save me, Lord You saved me.

With You, where the love lasts forever mercy found me,

I created a new blog called Popcorn and chips. It is a blog to review movies that adapted from books or novel. The trigger come since I read P.S I Love You the novel but have not got the chance to see the movie myself. Have been keep wondering if the movie is as good as the book?

The other trigger comes when I saw 8 Days magazine that cover about movies to be released in 2009, and guess what Dan Brown Angel and Demon is coming up; still with Tom Hanks acting as Robert; Confession of Shopaholics by Sophie Kinsella (I have read all the shopaholic series and wonder how it is in the movie!); My sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult, one of my favorite author and many many more…I'm so excited!!!!

If you happen to drop by the blog, do let me know your feedback!
