 Singapore Airlines has taken the unusual step of publicly asking passengers on its new Airbus A380 plane not to engage in any sexual activities.

The potential problem has arisen because the first class area of its giant superjumbo contains 12 private suites complete with double beds.

Singapore, which is the first airline to start flying the A380, said the suites were not sound-proofed.

It said it did not want anyone to offend other travellers or crew.

Singapore added that while the suites were private, they were also not completely sealed.

‘Observing standards’

“All we ask of customers, wherever they are on our aircraft, is to observe standards that don’t cause offence to other customers and crew,” the airline said in a statement.

“Nothing different applies for our Singapore Airlines Suites customers.”

Singapore Airlines took delivery of its first A380 earlier this month, with the first services between Singapore and Sydney starting on 25 October.

It is now set to take delivery of a further five A380s in 2008, out of its order of 19.

There sighs, complaints, and ululations loud
Resounded through the air without a star,
Whence I, at the beginning, wept thereat.

Languages diverse, horrible dialects,
Accents of anger, words of agony,
And voices high and hoarse, with sound of hands,

Made up a tumult that goes whirling on
For ever in that air for ever black,
Even as the sand doth, when the whirlwind breathes.

And I, who had my head with horror bound,
Said: “Master, what is this which now I hear?
What folk is this, which seems by pain so vanquished?”

And he to me: “This miserable mode
Maintain the melancholy souls of those
Who lived withouten infamy or praise.

Commingled are they with that caitiff choir
Of Angels, who have not rebellious been,
Nor faithful were to God, but were for self.

The heavens expelled them, not to be less fair;
Nor them the nethermore abyss receives,
For glory none the damned would have from them.”

And I: “O Master, what so grievous is
To these, that maketh them lament so sore?”
He answered: “I will tell thee very briefly.

These have no longer any hope of death;
And this blind life of theirs is so debased,
They envious are of every other fate.

No fame of them the world permits to be;
Misericord and Justice both disdain them.
Let us not speak of them, but look, and pass.”

30 Rock is the funniest show on primetime network television. The Office is good, yes. But, Tina Fey, Alec Baldwin, and Tracy Morgan stomp the bejesus out of The Office (btw: anyone notice the increased usage of the inimitable Ricky Gervais half-beat side-eye/semi-swallow (i don’t really know how to explain it…just when the camera lingers a bit too long) by Carrell? It’s weird and makes me want to go back and watch the Brits).

Anyway: The absurdity of situations on 30 Rock (e.g. cookie jar collecting, that German prince dude) are amazing, but it’s just the delivery of everything that makes the show worthwhile. The little throwaway jokes, the looks on character’s faces. GOLD CASE.

As a fashion-loving woman living on Oahu, I have noticed a major void in glamour on the island. While I understand that this is Hawaii, the land of laid-back, casual attire; I cannot be satisfied with slippers, shorts and aloha prints. For those who lust for a wardrobe full of glamour and class, as I do, here are some suggestions.

Look to the queens of Hollywood glamour for inspiration.

First is the epitome of classic glamour: Audrey Hepburn. Her playful charm is shown in her whimsical clothing, sleek hairstyle and simple but striking make-up.

Next, the queen of sexy glamour: Marilyn Monroe. A flirty A-line dress, soft curls and a pouty red lip are all you need to emulate this Hollywood vixen.

Elizabeth Taylor, the embodiment of extravagant glamour, can be the idol for all of you jewelry loving ladies. Pile on the jewels and fabulous gown and you too can channel Elizabeth Taylor

If you covet an air of mystery in your wardrobe, look no further than 1930s screen siren Greta Garbo. Her secretively seductive look can be achieved by smoky eye make-up; tousled hair and a stylish 1930s inspired ensemble (think a bias cut gown or a sophisticated skirt suit).

Uncomfortable with “all out” glamour? Mirror one of my favorite 1960’s TV stars, Mary Tyler Moore as Laura Petrie on the Dick Van Dyke show. Classic black Capri pants paired with a smart sweater and stylish flats complete this look. Simple, elegant and adorable.

Why not bring a little glamour into your everyday wardrobe? You just need a few hints of elegance.
One of my favorites is classic red lipstick. Don’t run away just yet! Have you tried it? There are countless shades of red to suit every skin tone and personality.

Next is high heels. Spice up your jeans and blouse with a sexy pair.

Another easy way to add glamour is jewelry. Real diamonds are not necessary. In fact, costume jewelry is my favorite, especially when it’s vintage. It’s unique, fun and inexpensive. Add a funky brooch or chunky ring to a simple outfit and you have instant glamour!

The most common response I get when crusading for a more glamorous world is: “I have nowhere to wear this!” My answer is to create your own occasion: Plan a ladies’ night where you and your girlfriends dress in your most glamorous ensembles, sip martinis and dance the night away. Have a cocktail party at your home and require formal attire.

Now it’s time to take what you’ve learned and release your inner glamour girl. Put on your red lipstick, costume jewelry, sleek pencil skirt or flirty dress and join the crusade for a more stylish Hawaii!

Wow! Release your inner glamour girl, y’all! What a crusade it is. Seriously? Have a cocktail party and require formal attire? GTFOHWTB x 10.

Of course the most depressing and hilarious part of Hawai’i is its yearning. Most folks here know that they are behind the continent by a good amount of time…and many accept that. The comedy ensues when the fervor at which folks here try and be others. Sweartogod. Going to some parties here is like bizarro cinespace (which is bizarre enough).
