Here is what Plastic Surgeon Dr JJ Chua says in The New Paper on Sunday 6th Jul 2008:

I can’t tell you how many patients think her breasts are to die for. She’s without doubt the gold standard. Women use her as a reference. They either tell me they don’t want to be as big as her, or that they want their breasts to look like hers.

The mayor of Nice has said that the Jolie-Pitt twins will be made honourary citizens of the town and he can’t wait to sign the birth certificate of the twins.

Doctor Michael Sussmann said, “She will give birth in the next two weeks. I can’t really say more than that. It really isn’t an emergency. She was booked in well in advance. We are not talking about premature birth.”

“We have reserved four rooms for her and her partner and also for her protection teams. We believe the security concerns they have raised are legitimate. She is a pregnant woman. She is perfectly entitled to protect her privacy. We should let her breathe,” he added.

Jolie and Pitt, 44, already have four children, three of them adopted and the fourth, Shiloh, their biological daughter born in Namibia in 2006.

Arissa Luna

Arissa Luna aka Arissa Cheo or Zhen Shan, born in Singapore on 30th June 1986 , currently live in Los Angeles, California, United State.

Arissa Luna is the girl mentioned by Xiaxue in her cyber blog war with Dawn Yang.

Here is what Xiaxue said about Arissa Luna:

Arissa (Zhen Shan) is a Singaporean girl who is studying in the states. She’s extremely pretty, and comes from a very wealthy family.

She is 100% natural, and a friend of mine. Not close, but we do sometimes talk a bit online.

Since Arissa was in secondary school, according to KK, she was already infamous in Singapore. Already gorgeous since a young age, all the boys school and girls school people of their batch know her - and I dunno if KK is exaggerating as usual or not la, but she was saying how Arissa’s features were perfect and she has naturally rosy cheeks that glow and be seen from a distance… etc etc.

Arissa’s not only gorgeous, her lifestyle is enviable. She has all the gorgeous brands, hangs out with loads of famous people, and was in Vanness’s MTV too.

Not only that, she has immense style and character. She’s not your traditional shu nu. AND she is nice and smart.

Why is Zhen Shan not a famous celebrity yet? My guess is that she doesn’t crave it.

Does Dawn Yang look like Arissa Cheo?

Levin Angsana

Levin AngsanaLevin Angsana, 22-year-old Singapore Management University (SMU) first-year student, is an Indonesian who is a Singapore permanent resident.

A group of five SMU Sailing Club students went out to sea off Raffles Marina at 1pm on Thursday to train on a 24-footer keel boat.

Levin Angsana had been reaching over to try to retrieve the boat’s sail, which had been caught by a gust of wind and had ended up in the water. He tried to get near the back of the boat where it was easier to climb back in, but failed.

The skipper, ex-national sailor Renfred Tay, 23, jumped in and managed to grab him, but Levin Angsana apparently kept struggling. When Renfred Tay tried to grab a life jacket a short distance away, Levin Angsana went under.

None of the crew were wearing life jackets.

The Maritime and Port Authority is conducting the ongoing search, and the police are assisting.

Dara Torres

Dara Torres, 41 year old and with a 2-year-old daughter, completed her improbable Olympic comeback, making the U.S. team for the fifth time by winning the 100-meter freestyle at the U.S. Olympic trials.

Dara Torres got off to a blazing start and guarded her lead on the furious return lap to win in 53.78, beating out Natalie Coughlin’s 53.83.

Dara Torres, who made her Olympic debut at the 1984 Los Angeles Games, has twice retired from competitive swimming. She is the first U.S. swimmer to make five Olympic teams.

“I’m ecstatic. I can’t believe it,” Torres said. “It’s sort of bittersweet for me because I’ve made my fifth Olympic team, but I’m going to be away from my daughter for a month and that’s really hard emotionally. But I’m happy to be going to Beijing.”

Dara Torres

Torres calls resistance stretching her “secret weapon.” Bob Cooley, who invented the discipline, describes it in less-modest terms. According to Cooley, over a two-week period in 1999, his flexibility system turned Torres “from being an alternate on the relay team to the fastest swimmer in America.” The secret to Torres’s speed, Cooley says, is that his technique not only makes her muscles more flexible but also increases their ability to shorten more completely, and when muscles shorten more completely, they produce greater power and speed. “What do race-car drivers do when they want to go faster?” Cooley asks. “They don’t spend more hours driving around the track. They increase the biomechanics of the car. And that’s what resistance flexibility is doing for Dara - increasing her biomechanics.”
