acceptance letter from a school can be the biggest thing in the lives of the students, i think RP should do something more than just apologising to the 16 affected students... Republic Poly apologises after mistakenly sending acceptance letters to 16 student hopefuls http://www.straitstimes.com/singapore/republic-poly-apologises-after-mistakenly-sending-acceptance-letters-to-16-student

I am hoping to get these letters "G", "U", "N" x 2, "E" ,"R" & "S" to make uo the word "GUNNERS" for appropriate size See picture. hehe. Anyone know where I can get them. I think they may be sold at those hardware, funiture store (for door labels), but I don't know any location.

I am perplexed that the recent 3 bloggers who gotten lawyer letters from Lee, Lee and a tambi were actually not written by them but comments made in website however, there are more damning websites like below but why no ST writing about or lawyer letter served to this website http://www.yeocheowtong.com/ why why why can anybody explain thanks NB maybe we should hint to POWDER so he can ask his BIG BROTHER to take action

Dear Mr. Cameron, Please find below our suggestion for fixing the UK 's economy. Instead of giving billions of pounds to banks that will squander the money on lavish parties and unearned bonuses, use the following plan. You can call it the Patriotic Retirement Plan: There are about 10 million people over 50 in the work force. Pay them

It supposed to be a long-waiting weekend, after all the exams and assignments for my MBA. BUT, this morning, I opened the mailbox and there were 6 letters from the Traffic palice department (TP). 5 of them, stating that I parked my car outside the queenstown library, along Margaret drive, on Aug 4, 5, 14, 15, 17, each Summon is $70 the 6th letters is more confusing to me. The offence is "Stopping in a Zebra controlled area under rule 10 (1) (Pedestrian Crossings) Rules....". Summon is $120 plus 3 points deduction. It was on Aug 15, too. (I already got a $70 summon on that day). It was really a shock to me, bcoz: 1. I NEVER see any parking offence notice on my windscreen. . but it is the first time i receive summon from TP. (some were from hdb, ura, lta). Is that rigth that TP didn't issue notice on the spot? Looks really weird for me... 2. I don't know how they define the Zebra Control Area, but I am sure I never stop anything close to a Pedestrian crossing zebra area. I am sure if you know queenstown library, u will notice there were always cars parking along the road since dont know when. That's why I assume it shall be legal to park there. I seldom went to that library. If it was not for my exam and asssignment, and my new born at home so no place for me to concentrate on studying, I will never stay in the library for hours. Now I know I was wrong and I paid a high price to know. BUT, if I saw the summon notice on my windscreen on the first offence, I will never park there again. I am not a guy who has too much cash on hand and willing to contribute to TP. And for the offence on Aug 4 and 5, they only sent out the letter on Aug 22. ANd funny thing is, for the offence on Aug 15, it was sent on Aug 21. Why they just can't send the summon right after the offence, so that I can know I was wrong and not going to do that again. The purpose for the summon, is to warn people, not to earn money, right? I am not sure now... For the stopping at zebra summon, i really don't know what happened. Does that mean they saw my car stop on the Zebra line? That is impossible.but, can i ask them to provide evidence Any comments and advice from fellow forumer are welcome. Please tell me what I can do. $470 is not a small money to me....

http://www.straitstimes.com/ST%2BForum/Sto...ory_310054.html Motorists shouldn't complain so much I COMMEND the Land Transport Authority on the bus-lane initiative. As a regular bus commuter, I have noticed I now get to my destination faster on some routes. . . I hope the authorities will educate motorists on the need for bus-lane rules and the danger they pose to other motorists and themselves by their inconsiderate driving habits. Loo Kok Kan - - - http://www.straitstimes.com/ST%2BForum/Sto...ory_310053.html Thanks for a smoother ride, LTA I REFER to the recent discussion in the media on the bus-lane issue. It seems most views presented were from motorists who were concerned about their road space being taken up by public buses. I would like to look at this from the perspective of bus commuters who travel daily by public transport. . . During this period of economic uncertainty, more people are switching to public transport. The implementation of more bus lanes on the road is a timely measure that will benefit more people. I applaud the Land Transport Authority for its timely decision. Ho Kok Khun = = = As I suspected, the letter writers are part of the Establishment. See http://www.yckyec.org.sg/people/aboutus2005.htm and http://www.neesoonsouth.org.sg/csc.php Now probably getting pats on the back for being so useful and supportive. And so nice of ST to publish the two letters on the same day.

I was completely blown away by this one. This is Sesame Street's parody of L&O: Special Victims Unit. Brilliant! Absolutely Brilliant! I heard Dick Wolf likes it a lot and encourages Sesame Street to go through with all the letters of the alphabet. The muppets look just like the actual series actors. They use the actors real names. Meloni and Mariska.
