How to put the post title at the end of the breadcrumbs in Drupal

2011-10-12T12:57:00.000+08:00

If you did just

<?php print $breadcrumb . $title; ?>

You will realise that your page title appears in a new line like so:
Home » Guys »
Shirts

To solve the problem, just add this to your css.

.breadcrumb 
{
   display: inline;
   margin-bottom: .5em;
   font-size:80%;
   font-weight:normal;
   color:#393939;
}

And replace

<?php print $breadcrumb . $title; ?>

with this

<?php
   print $breadcrumb."<span class=\"breadcrumb\"> &raquo; ".$title."</span>";
?>

Displaying Google map on Drupal

2011-10-10T18:29:00.001+08:00

If like me you have been cracking your head trying to integrate Google Map into Drupal, watch the video below and read the guide after that. Definitely helped in my understanding.

But you need to get some stuff ready before diving in.

Google Maps API - Sign up and get your Google Maps API key. You will have to input it later on in order for the map to work.
GMap (Drupal Module) - This will provide an interface to the Google Maps API within Drupal.
Location (Drupal Module) - It allows you to associate location information (coordinates, address, etc... ), with Drupal nodes and users.

After watching the video, have a look at this guide, Mapping with Drupal: GMap, Location & Views. You will learn how to create a view with the information you've created above.

The girlfriend and I spent the weekend at MBS and I went as The Stig, motorcycle riding Stig.

Work hard, play hard.

Relax one corner.

My December

2011-09-09T17:06:00.000+08:00

I have been anticipating for the arrival of December.

The end of a year. The welcoming of a new year. Christmas. Gatherings. Presents. Celebrations. Alcohol. Our anniversary. Her birthday. December is just filled with endless fun.

But most importantly, come December 15, I will be eligible to register for my Class 2A lessons. And I will try my very best to get my license as fast as possible this time. No more slacking. For we know that by attaining my Class 2A is another step closer to Class 2, which ultimately leads to my Fireblade.

Mr Nathan said all will be revealed in his memoirs, which are expected to be published in September. "When that book is published, you will know that, although I've been quiet, I've been doing work."

My boss should pay me for a report if he wants to know if I am doing work in the office.
My future employees should pay to get a copy of my resume.

This prata man really talk cock.

The Studious Walking Dead

2011-05-28T15:24:00.000+08:00

I used to be full of energy. Now, I am always feeling sleepy; even more so in the afternoon.

I have been out studying the whole day but I am not absorbing as much knowledge as I would like to. The numbers and theories seem like a blur to me now. Either I am really getting old and my speed of learning has gotten worse or the curriculum is getting difficult.

But I suspect that it might just be the lack of proper sleep. Even as I am typing this, my eyes are threatening to close.

Studying. Sky Garden @ The Central.

And the reason I am always feeling sleepy? The girlfriend.

First of all, the girlfriend refuses to let me sleep in peace every night. We will engage in a fight over my bolster every single time due to her refusal to let me hug my bolster to sleep; she wants me to hug her to sleep instead. And when I refuses to do so, she'll hug my bolster to sleep and I'm left with nothing. My bolster is very important to me. I even brought my bolster to ICT (in-camp training). And that shows commitment!

Secondly, my weight gain. Whenever we are out eating, my girlfriend likes ordering lots of food. And she force feeds me. Most of the time we'll have lots of leftovers, not wanting to waste food, I'll try to finish all of it. Now, I am smarter, I rather let the food go to waste than increase the size of my waist. And as you know, weight gain = lesser energy = sleepy. She blames it on my soft drinks drinking habit though.

Pumping Petrol In Malaysia: How Much Do I Actually Save?

2011-05-26T17:18:00.000+08:00

After finding out how much money my colleague saved over the years just by pumping petrol in Johor Bahru, I decided to start pumping petrol in JB too.

But the problem is, I've not travelled into Malaysia in a motorcycle or a car for a long time, especially not since the new custom buildings were erected. I have no idea where to pump and where to u-turn.

Undeterred, the girlfriend and I took the plunge and rode in late one night.

The first thing we realised was humps, speed humps, lots of them. You must go through at least 20 speed humps before reaching Johor Bahru. Some of the humps were not even coloured. I went through a few humps quite aggressively; I was so worried that my front rim will dent.

The next thing was not knowing where to turn back. So I devised a cleaver plan to just follow the Singaporean cars from the petrol kiosk. Unfortunately, the one that we followed was not going back to Singapore. The girlfriend and I nearly ended up on the highway to Kuala Lumpur because the roads were dark and there wasn't seem to be any legitimate u-turns around.

I decided to tag along my colleague to pump petrol last Monday evening. Now I know where's the petrol kiosks, u-turns, money changer and where to have food!

So, how much do I actually save every trip I make?

Assume:

RON 95 (Singapore) = RON 97 (Malaysia)
Price today: S$2.04/litre vs S$1.1847/litre (RM2.9/litre) (Exchage rate 0.4085)
Source: http://www.petrolwatch.com.sg/
Distance (to and fro): 28Kkm (estimate)
Fuel Consumption: 17km/litre

I made a trip this afternoon and the bill came up to RM26.62 (S$10.87).

26.62/2.9 = 9.1793litres

The same amount of petrol would have cost me (in Singapore):

9.1793 x 2.04 = 18.725772

85% (Esso Smile + Citibank Card discount) x 18.725772 = $15.92

Price of trip: 28/17x1.1847 = $1.95

Total amount saved: $15.92 - $10.87 - $1.95 = $3.13.

I only save S$3.13 everytime I pump petrol in Johor Bahru. Either I need a bigger fuel tank or I need the currency difference to be greater.

Spark Plug

2011-05-15T08:23:00.002+08:00

When changing spark plug for Itsu, my motorcycle, for the first time,

Ah Chong: Which one you want? The $12 one or the $5 one?
Me: What's the difference? I never change before.
Ah Chong: $12 is racing one loh.
Me: Means can ride faster ah?
Ah Chong: Aiyah, I see your face never race one lah. I put the $5 one for you.
Me: Erm... ok loh.

Yes, that's the Ah Chong from Planet Motorcycle.

It's official. I forgive Vivian Balakrishnan.

Cute daughter. I want one!

The Girlfriend Stood Up For Me!

2011-05-04T16:37:00.000+08:00

This morning, I called the company in-charge of the money robbing machine again and a lady finally picked up the phone. She assured me that if their staff find my money in the machine, they will send it in the form of a cheque to my address in a month's time. A month's time! I would have moved by then!

The girlfriend was not satisfied with this answer so she took the company's number from me and called the company again. I think they are trying to speed up the process now. Let's hope I'll receive my money soon. I am a poor student you know?!

I Was Robbed Of $50

2011-05-03T23:59:00.001+08:00

It's true. The machines are taking over the world. I was just robbed of $50 by a machine.

As some of you may know, I collect $1 coins. After school today, I decided to ride to Cineleisure and exchange $1 coins at the basement. I withdrew $220 and was ready to convert all of them into shiny little $1 coins (MY PRECIOUS!!!).

The note feeder took my money and failed to dispense any coins because it does not have enough coins. Instead of returning me my $50, it decided to keep my money and display an "insufficient coins" error.

I tried calling the number listed on the machine but operating hours were well over; all I got from the number was "the mailbox is full, goodbye!". I think I can jolly well kiss my $50 goodbye.

Is This The Kind Of Ministers You Want?

Why do they have to answer the reporters in such a condescending manner? The first reporter looks genuinely scared.

I hope none of you are voting for these people.

Vote Wisely: Heaven and Hell.

2011-04-28T10:20:00.000+08:00

While walking down the street one day a MP is tragically hit by a truck and dies.

The MP's soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the entrance.

"Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter . "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around these parts, you
see, so we're not sure what to do with you."

"No problem, just let me in," says the MP.

St. Peter says, "Well, I'd like to, but I have orders from higher up. What we'll do is have you spend one day in hell and one in heaven. Then you
can choose where to spend eternity."

"Really, I've made up my mind. I want to be in? heaven," says the MP.

"I'm sorry, but we have our rules", replies St.Peter.

And with that, St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell. The doors open and he finds himself in the middle of a
green golf course. In the distance is a clubhouse and standing in front of it are all his friends and other politicians who had worked with him.

Everyone is very happy and in evening dress. They run to greet him, shake his hand, and reminisce about the good times they had while getting rich
at the expense of the people.

They play a friendly game of golf and then dine on lobster, caviar and champagne.

Also present is the Devil, who really is a very friendly guy who has a good time dancing and telling jokes. They are having such a good time that
before he realizes it, it is time to go.

Everyone gives him a hearty farewell and waves while the elevator rises...

The elevator goes up, up, up and the door reopens on heaven where St. Peter is waiting for him.

"Now it's time to visit heaven," St Peter says.

So, 24 hours pass with the MP joining a group of contented souls moving from cloud to cloud, playing the harp and singing. They have a good time
and the 24 hours in heaven passes by and St Peter returns.

"Well, you've spent a day in hell and another in heaven. Now which will you choose for your eternity?" St Peter asks.

The MP reflects for a minute, then he answers, "Well, I never would have thought it before, I mean heaven has been delightful, but I think I would
be happier and better off .. in hell."

So St. Peter escorts him to the elevator and he goes down, down, down to hell.

Now the doors of the elevator open and he's in the middle of a barren land covered with waste and garbage.

He sees all his friends, dressed in rags, picking up the trash and putting it in black bags as more trash falls from above.

The Devil comes over to him and puts his arm around his shoulder.

"I don't understand," stammers the MP. "Yesterday I was here and there was a golf course and clubhouse, and we ate lobster and caviar, drank
champagne, and danced and had a great time. Now there's just a wasteland full of garbage and my friends look miserable. What happened?"

The Devil looks at him, smiles and says,

"Yesterday we were campaigning.......
Today .. YOU voted.

Remember Election is here.

Vote wisely!

5th Blood Donation Medallion

2011-04-22T13:16:00.002+08:00

I was given this medallion by the Singapore Red Cross Society for having donated blood more than 5 times. I think my tally is currently at 8.

A pack of blood can save up to 3 lives. I've saved 24 lives. How about you?

There would be another medallion at the 10th donation. And then begins the long journey in the table below.

Category	Male	Female
Bronze Medalion	25	25
Silver Medalion	50	35
Ruby Medalion	75	50
Gold Medalion	100	70
Diamond Medalion	125	100
Champion of Champions	150	125
Red Cross Humanitarian Award	200	150

A whole blood donation can take place every 3 months; 4 times yearly. In order for me to get the Red Cross Humanitarian Award, it would take me another (200-8)/4 = 48 years.

A whole blood donation can take place every 3 months.

Sometimes patients need only a specific part of a donor's blood. To help these people, donations of individual blood components such as platelets or plasma are sometimes required. Such donations are known as apheresis donations.

The extraction of platelets from a donor's blood is known as plateletpheresis, while plasmapheresis refers to the extraction of a donor's plasma.

I am gonna start making apheresis donations instead because I would be able to donate every month then. And that means only (200-8)/12 = 16 years to my Red Cross Humanitarian Award.

Blood donation can be fun and rewarding!

To start donating blood, please visit: http://hsa.gov.sg/donorcare to make an appointment!

Biggest Regret - Tin Pei Ling vs Nicole Seah

2011-04-22T12:22:00.004+08:00

The choice is clear who to vote for. Vote wisely!

Battle Of The Cutest?

2011-04-21T23:57:00.000+08:00

National Solidarity Party's (NSP) response to the People's Action Party's (PAP) Tin Pei Ling is Nicole Rebecca Seah Xue Ling.

Seriously, we have nothing against female or young candidates; Nicole is only 24 years old this year.

What we are against is you letting people become ministers by going through the GRC backdoor and act as if we voted for them.

30÷2(2+3)÷5=?

2011-04-20T09:30:00.000+08:00

What's your answer?
15? 0.6?

I asked this question on Twitter yesterday after seeing this problem in the forum.
Many of my friends replied 0.6 or 3/5. Some replied 15. Why is this so? Did our almighty Singapore education system fail?

This video says that the answer should be 15.

The way I see it, both answers can be correct. The question should be set clearer by adding more brackets. But my answer is 15.
