... it is not a problem at all. Agree? Sometimes we get ourselves stressed up over problems that are not problems at all. While things can be much better, they can also be much worse. Maybe you are stressed over work or school, but at least you are still physically fit enough to move about, and not wasting away with some terminal illness. Maybe you are having problems with your partner, kids or parents but these can still be resolved. There are old people in the last years of life living alone in squalor without any relatives. Maybe your HDB or car is not big enough but at least you still have housing and personal transport. If you work harder and save up, you can still upgrade in future. Because of all the self percieved problems, we live in the shadows with a dark cloud hanging over us, not realizing there are so many beautiful things and sunshine all around, just waiting for us to appreciate. This is my "Lite & EZ" contribution. Thank you.

CNA reports : Gang of 7 believed to be behind spate of attacks in Kallang; 5 arrested A gang of seven was believed to have been responsible for the recent spate of attacks in the Kallang area on Sunday, which left one man dead and three others seriously injured. The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has arrested five of the suspects. Three were arrested on Monday and another two were arrested at about 9.50pm on Tuesday. The police said the latest two arrests were made at Woodlands checkpoint when the suspects entered Singapore. One of the two is believed to be involved in the murder case at Kallang. All the attacks occurred on Sunday. On Monday evening, three Malaysians were nabbed. The trio from Sarawak, who are between 21 and 26 years old, work here as general workers. They were caught near their dormitory in Syed Alwi Road after a 24-hour island-wide operation that involved 100 police officers. The CID, which described the crimes as "vicious and violent", believed seven people had a hand in the attacks. All should be given the minimun 'Life' sentence with canning........ Bravo to the Men-in-Blue ......

Funny as hell. I am sure some people have seen video review of cars by Steve Sutcliffe (former racing driver & motor editor of Autocar) or his articles, but its amazing he didn't even know this & even post exciting on his blog, his discovery of the decades! Article here:

Paya Lebar Underpass Opens not sure if anyone here commutes regularly along this stretch. However since the opening of the underpass it hasn't solved any congestion but rather shifting the jam from A to B. In the mornings the jam is now shifted to the next junction (PL & Macpherson) and stretches till the end of the underpass. and similarly for the evenings...traffic jams starts from the Lor Ah Soo junction till how sun dr area. $$$ spend and resolved the problem? Maybe not...there are really too many cars on the roads with more quotas and cheaper COE. so again time to setup the gantries?

SINGAPORE: Singapore

I believe by increase speed limit 10-20km/h will help to solve expressway traffic issue... but their solution is to increase erp rates.... or build more gantries...

Finally... after months of trying... Changing wipers... Using cheapo blue wiper fluid but to no avail... But due to a stupid, idiotic, nasty flying stone , I was forced to change my windscreen... And the moment I collected my car, I tried my wipers and.... Hey presto! Smooth as silk! Not even a single bit of juddering.... Well, that's som form of consolation for myself...

Some of u may know of my long suffering wiper juddering saga. SM hv obligingly changed 3-4 sets of wipers for me incl expensive PIAA silicon wipers, adjusted the wiper arm tension, windscreen polished dunno how many times. On my own hv turned to freaking expensive Dura edge wipers, Autoglym glass polish and oso used the $20/bottle autoglym windscreen washer fluid as recommended by the glass polish (but of course!). None of these seem to hv worked. Since none of these expensive solutions seem to do the job, thot i go the opposite direction and try the cheapo stuff instead. Forget the fancy blades and imported stuff and went for the natural rubber, $9 made-in-malaysia NWB wipers and $1.50 blue washer fluid which are readily available from any petrol kiosks. And waddaya know, the wipes are as smooth as a baby's botton now!! Moral of story? Malaysia Boleh!

OK those who registered with me via PM can now view the Swaps folder. You can post into it and also pics of the stuff you want to swap. Only for those who PM'd me and registered with me. BTW, they are mostly Starlet stuff so make sure you are into the Starlet stuff or it will be a waste of your time.
