It says its a “a social mobile application providing free turn-by-turn navigation based on the live conditions of the road. 100% powered by users, the more you drive, the better it gets. Join the community of drivers in your area today!” The more you use it, the better info I get in planning my journey round KL, and hopefully the rest of Malaysia

If you are fans of classic gaming, support those old time PC classics at Good Oil Games. I wish they had a local setup here.

Support your local bookshop! Visit Bookalicious at The Summit Subang, good selection of imported books. I think they focus on trilogies, quadrilogies, and otherologies. Tell them I sent you, and enjoy the look of perplexity on their faces.

Here are some hard boiled detective novels for a change.

Storm Front (The Dresden Files, Book 1), Fool Moon (The Dresden Files, Book 2), Grave Peril (The Dresden Files, Book 3)

I recently discovered tha Kinokunya KLCC has a whole rack dedicated to oil & gas topics. ‘Course, I would prefer if you bought the above selection from my site, but I value your continued education more than profit. Actually, I prefer it the other way round, so purchase stuff from me.

This selection focuses on the non-engineers among you. Try out Oil & Gas Production in Nontechnical Language, The Petroleum Industry: A Nontechnical Guide, and Petroleum Refining in Nontechnical Language, Fourth Edition. I haven’t used these books before, but they seem quite good.

Saturday Star 2010-05-15 – Job Opportunities

May 17, 2010

Commercial note: I’m monetizing this site, so support me by purchasing my recommendations, or buying through my Amazon store.

  • For graduates, Technip wants to ‘Engineer a Successful Career’. It is embarking on the Graduate Skill Enhancement Program in Piping Design. They last advertised this program in June, 2009. Visit here soon. Interestingly enough, you can ask the Selangor Human Resource Development Centre as well (isn’t Technip in KL?).  Since sooo many people ask, here’s the basic requirements:
    • Degree in Mech, Pet or ChemEng
    • Min CGPA of 2.5 or 2-2 or better.
    • Ability to speak and write fluently in English. Oh, please let me be the judge of this.
    • < 28 yrs.
  • Murphy (you know, the company who was linked to the acreages ‘lost’ to Brunei?) are still going strong, kudos to them. They are looking for a subsea eng, snr metering eng (I humbly offer myself for consulting services), snr production eng (cut me a long term call off contract), and cost control assistant (we’ll do this to, ehem, ‘control’ the costs of the above two contracts). Send your applications here.

For a food recommendation, how about Peppercorns in SS15. It’s under new management now, but the menu’s still the same. We regularly schedule our management breakfasts and lunches there. For dinner, I could recommend Alisara, a Thai restaurant in Puchong. Food’s good, but a bit dear.

This week is nostalgia video week. I can finally afford to purchase DVD collections of series that were shown in the 80s on TV3. Back then, I don’t think TV3 focused much on showing complete series runs. Now I can afford it, I’m getting a collection of some of the more esoteric series: Robin of Sherwood, Nowhere Man and Wiseguy.
