Please don't look at the photos especially if you are about to eat something or have eaten your fill.... Using broken glass to line or protect the walls of homes were very common in the past. Let's say it was acceptable in the 1960's. In the past, the glass shards were relatively shallow and smaller. But wow! The glass shards here are certainly meant to "murder" someone! Very scary stuff!

Case Study 1: AC vs DC fans? Any advantages of a DC fan? These are some considerations: 1. AC fans have been around ever since electricity has been invented. 2. Generally, some find that DC fans costs more. Thus, in the long term; running costs are cheaper with a DC fan. Thus you do the maths. 3. AC fans can only spin one direction. Thus, the fan blades are optimized to "blow" wind downwards. 3.1. Here, DC fans have a distinct advantage. DC fans can be made to spin clockwise or anti-clockwise. Thus if so, instead of "blowing" wind downwards, it can also be made to "suck" air up to the ceiling. Thus especially if one has a high ceiling; the air can…

1. At the recently renovated Hawker cum Market at Clementi Central; spotted:- 2. There is a circular hole drilled next to each of the table number. 3. I don't think it is for inserting an umbrella as the hole looks or seems too small for some umbrellas. Or is it because it ain't raining? 4. Have not seen anyone at this market making full use of this small circular "hole". 5. Neither does the cleaner "push" food remains into this circular hole? 6. What do you think this hole is for?

Confidence and Self-Esteem were best friends. They went everywhere together. If Confidence bought a new dress, Self-Esteem bought one just like it. They were very close. One day a new kid came to their school. His name was Peer Pressure. He had a friend called Hateful Words. They decided to give Confidence a hard time. They constantly teased her. They forced her to do terrible things. It was so terrible that Confidence lost Self-Esteem. When Self-Esteem wanted to start dance class, Confidence said they wouldn't be any good. Then one day, Peer Pressure introduced Confidence to Doubt. He wanted to ruin Confidence, but Peer Pressure said he couldn't yet. Self Esteem couldn'…

THE TRACKLESS TROLLEY OF SINGAPORE The early history of Singapore is shrouded in mystery. It seems to be established that the Malays settled there 1360 A.D., followed in 1377 A.D. by the Javanese who had invaded the island. Marco Polo does not mention it though he wintered in Sumatra on his way backin Europe. It was supposed to have been an important trading center in the early centuries, but when Great Britain acquired it, it was wholly uninhabited save by a few families of wild Malay fisher folk andl was a rendezvous of pirates. Today it is one of the world's chief distributing points for the commerce of all nations, truly a "crossroads of the world." Under British ru…

Hello everyone: When I was in Hawaii I saw trees that looked like the shape of fish scales. I don't know the name of this tree but I believe it is in the pine family. I haven't seen these trees here in California. Would anyone know the name of this tree? I am curious as to whether having one on your property is "good luck" or portends "bad luck" in Chinese lore. Thank you.

I applaud your idea to write a book using humor to educate the general public regarding all the charlatans practising FS & readings out there. I am a Western astrologer,constantly appalled at the horror stories of my clients tell of readers before they found me. The Forum user who wrote in re: being afraid of a medium's ghost is typical of the fear con artists put into their client's heads and then milk them for money. I hope that everyone will do some research into the "readers" they use BEFORE getting a reading. Unfortunately, a lot of clients want flash and pazzaz and just aren't happy unless some "Magic Bullet Remedy" is suggested (to buy). I tell everyone that th…
