LIMA — The 1969 Major League baseball season was at the halfway point, and sportswriters were starting to realize the Cincinnati Reds had something special.
"Spurred by Lee May, Tony Perez, Bobby Tolan, John Bench and Alex Johnson, the Reds boast an all-around attack stronger than that of the awesome 1956 squad which tied a National League record with 221 home runs," the Associated Press declared in a July 1, 1969, story.
From 1970 to 1979, Cincinnati's Big Red Machine would dominate the National League, winning four pennants and two World Series.
Although the "awesome 1956 squad" of the Reds never came close to that success, it did boast a lineup that included Frank Robinson, Ted Kluszewski, Gus Bell and Ed Bailey.
And, right in the middle of all that power in the mid-1950s was Wally Post. Described by reporters as "the quiet farm boy from St. Henry," Post once hit a home run that might have gone 600 feet if it hadn't thudded into a scoreboard. On the back of his 1957 Topps baseball card is this praise: "Some experts think that Wally hits the longest ball in the National League. They also feel that he rivals Mantle in distance blows. Again last season 'Wallopin' Wally' struck terror in the hearts of pitchers by tying for 4th in home production and was the Redlegs' No. 2 man in runs scored."
The "quiet farm boy from St. Henry" actually was born down the road in the Mercer County crossroads of St. Wendelin on July 9, 1929. "Wally was a shy boy, pleasant, quick smile," Charles Karcher, Post's baseball coach at St. Henry High School, told the Cincinnati Enquirer for a June 22, 2003, story. "Unassuming, the kind of kid you want to know and be around. He was a little chubby when he first came out for the team — about 5-9 and 167 pounds — but by the time he was a junior, he was 5-11 and 190. He was so good the Reds signed him after his junior year; he couldn't play as a senior."
Post signed with the Reds in 1946 as a right-handed pitcher. By 1947, he was playing for the Reds farm team in Muncie, Indiana. "Muncie's Packers mired the visiting Lima Terriers deeper in the cold, cold Ohio State League dungeon here last night by winning 8-1," The Lima News reported on June 14, 1947. "Main fly in the Lima ointment was a 17-year-old boy, Wally Post, who took the local hill, (and) allowed Lima only seven hits. Lima's lone run was unearned."
When injury ended his pitching career, Post was moved to the outfield. Post had displayed his prowess as a hitter while at St. Henry High School, where, along with his brother, Eddie, he had anchored a formidable team. Karcher recalled Post hitting a home run 400 feet in a game against Houston High School.
"Eddie was the better pitcher," the Enquirer wrote. "Wally threw harder, but his pitches didn't have much movement. The Reds converted him to a right fielder in the minor leagues. He and the Brooklyn Dodgers' Carl Furillo had the best arms in the National League."
Post made his Major League debut on September 14, 1949, against the Boston Braves. "Post looks like a cinch to stick and wind up as a regular Reds gardener," a story in the March 21, 1951, edition of the News predicted. "Although he has been playing the outfield only two years and has failed to hit .300 in the minors, he is an aggressive type player and will improve. He's fast and an excellent judge of a fly ball."
He didn't stick and logged only 15 games with the Reds that season. A year later, a headline in the News pronounced Post only a "near-cinch" to make the Reds. It became a recurring theme. The promise of spring would fade and Post would spend his summer in the minor leagues before returning to the Reds in September.
Finally, in May 1953, after breaking camp with the Reds, Post again was sent down. The demotion turned out to be the break Post needed. In 133 games with Indianapolis that season, Post hit .289, smacked 33 home runs, drove in 120 runs, made the American Association All-Star team and won the admiration of his manager, George "Birdie" Tebbetts.
That November Tebbetts was named the new manager of the Reds. "In my opinion," Tebbetts told a reporter at the time, "Post was the outstanding player in the American Association and the fans here are going to love him." Post opened the season with a game-winning hit and took off from there, belting 18 homers and driving in 83 runs for the season.
It got better. "That boy has improved 50 percent since spring training last year," Tebbetts said in March 1955. Post hit .300 with 40 home runs and 109 RBI in 1955 and was named the Reds most valuable player for the season. He followed that up with a 36-homer, 83-RBI season in 1956.
For his part, Post gave credit to Tebbetts for his success. "I'd been up and down since '49 until 'Birdie' came along," Post told reporters on July 26, 1955. "On the first day of spring training last year he told everybody, 'Post is my right fielder.' That did a lot for my confidence."
Following the 1957 season, during which his batting average, home runs and RBI dipped, Post was dealt to the Philadelphia Phillies for pitcher Harvey Haddix. In the summer of 1960, Post, unhappy with a drop in playing time with the Phillies, looked to return to Cincinnati. "I won't be 31 until July and I think I've got at least four or five good years left," Post told reporters on June 2, 1960. Two weeks later he was traded back to the Reds.
Post played a key role in the Reds 1961 pennant-winning season which also saw Post belt a monumental home run. "Veteran observers agreed Saturday that Wally Post's home run off the left field scoreboard during the St. Louis-Cincinnati game Friday was probably the most powerful home run ever hit in Busch stadium," the United Press International reported on April 15, 1961."Most players and officials said the ball would have traveled 600 feet had it not struck the scoreboard."
In the fall of 1961, the Reds faced the New York Yankees in the World Series. The Yankees won in five games although Post had a good series, hitting .333 with one home run. In the spring of 1963, he was sent to the Minnesota Twins, who released him after the season. Declaring "I think I've got some baseball left," Post signed a contract with the Cleveland Indians in November 1963 but was released after only eight plate appearances in 1964.
Post was elected to the Reds Hall of Fame in 1965.
As he had every offseason, Post returned to St. Henry when his baseball career ended. He frequently spoke to church groups and service clubs, and joined other retired players teaching the game to youngsters at baseball clinics in the area. He died in St. Henry on Jan. 6, 1982.

Isabel 6 heralds a new era with different name and look
New Belgian multibanking application Seven innovates
Brussels, 20 June 2019 – Isabel 6, the multibanking platform of Isabel Group, will be given a new look in September 2019. With a new name – Seven – and a fresh image, the focus will lie on ease of use, mobility and connectivity with 26 partner banks.
In 1995, Isabel was the first to offer a multibanking solution on the Belgian market. Twenty-four years and numerous integrations later, Isabel 6 has become an essential fixture for many Belgian companies. The platform processes € 7 billion per day.
Security and innovation
Customer feedback indicates that professional users want to consult their bank accounts and sign business payments on mobile devices. However, security is a significant concern. With its new, mobile, and highly secure environment, Seven meets the expectations of business users.
In addition to connectivity with 26 Belgian banks, Seven offers a financial dashboard and will enable additional financial services. When it comes to security, which is one of the platform's strengths, apart from the current Isabel SmartCard, there will also be additional methods for mobile registration and signing payments, such as itsme®.
Future of multibanking
Jean de Crane, the CEO of Isabel Group: "The current ecosystem of Isabel 6 with its 26 partner banks ensures that companies can manage all their transactions via a single multibanking platform. The innovation aims to strengthen our position as the Belgian market leader even further. With Seven, Isabel is ushering in the future of multibanking for professional users. We are aiming to achieve half a billion B2B payments by 2020."
An initial version of Seven will be available from September 2019. The 50,000 Isabel 6 customers will be invited in phases to switch to the new environment at their own pace.

A SPARKLING SHOW Following limited yields in 2003, Krug was blessed with good enough weather the next year to create two beautiful expressions for 2004. Krug 2004 is a blend of chardonnay, pinot noir and meunier, with aromas of candied citrus and spice. The Krug Grande Cuvee 160eme Edition is more familiar, as it is simply the 160th recreation of the House's annual Grande Cuvee. Made from a blend of 121 wines from 12 different years, it boasts the same roundness and acidity we've come to love from one of the best non-vintage champagnes out there. SUMMER SIPPING French and Italian wine harvests are at a historic low this year, but let's not forget that there are still delectable bottles to be savoured from the New World. Cloudy Bay has released its 2017 Sauvignon Blanc and it has, according to senior winemaker Tim Heath, "an elegant and concentrated palate with ripe, juicy stone fruit and lemongrass, supported by a lovely minerality". While its crisp acidity and long finish might suggest its capability to age well, we recommend grabbing a chilled glass and a tray of oysters as soon as possible.

Bad Food For Your Teeth
Our teeth do a lot of important things for us, like keep us alive by helping us chew our food. Pretty important, right?
So it's a good idea to do what we can to take care of them.
We know that brushing our teeth and flossing are essential components of oral health. But we can do more to keep our teeth in good shape, and that includes watching the foods we eat.
Eating certain foods, especially in excess, can do a lot of damage to our teeth. So here is a list of foods and drinks that are best to avoid.
Dried Fruit
Even though these foods are fruit, the dehydrated nature of them means that they are sticky. And sticky foods stay in the crevasses of the teeth and can cause decay. Plus many dehydrated fruits have sugar and unhealthy oils added, which can damage teeth. Instead of dried fruits, eat whole, fresh fruits.
You might think that since ice is made of water, ice is a great way to hydrate your body. That may be the case, but ice can easily damage your teeth because it is common to aggressively chew it once it gets in our mouths. Instead of ice, drink plain water.
Lemon and lime can brighten up any dull dish, and a squeeze of lemon in water is refreshing any time of day. But high levels of citrus can break down enamel, leaving our teeth vulnerable to decay. Citrus can also aggravate any sores in the mouth, causing pain and making it harder for them to heal. Instead, ditch the citrus and drink your water without.
Coffee and Tea
Studies have shown that warm drinks can have health benefits when consumed in moderation, and they are two of the most consumed beverages of the planet, so it's hard to say this… but coffee and tea are not great for the teeth. The reason is twofold: consumers often add sugar to their morning cup, and both drinks can stain the teeth. Instead, drink herbal tea and refrain from adding sweetener if you are going to have a cup of caffeine.
Sodas and Sports Drink
Some of the worst offenders out there are sodas and sports drinks because of the very high sugar content. Despite clever marketing, these drinks are terrible for the teeth. Fizzy beverages are highly acidic and break down the protective coating on the teeth and sports drinks are excellent at causing decay. It is hard to repair the damage once it is done. Instead, plain ol' water wins again.
Drinking alcoholic beverages causes the body and mouth to become dehydrated. Overconsumption of alcohol can cause a reduction in the flow of saliva, which can lead to tooth decay and can accelerate infections like gum disease. Red wine is also especially good at staining teeth, and heavy alcohol use can increase a person's risk of mouth cancer. Instead, reduce intake to special occasions and enjoy non-alcoholic cocktails when available.
So are there any foods that are good for the teeth?! Yes – just stick to the basics. Fresh fruits and vegetables that are high in calcium (like leafy greens and broccoli), whole grains and plain beverages like water. If this sounds boring, don't worry, it won't take long for your taste buds to adjust.
Remember to do what you can for your teeth – they do an awful lot for you!

Cruise ship jobs entail skills quite different from those required for similar shore-based jobs. With thousands of people in a relatively small space so far away from emergency services on shore, understanding passenger behaviour and knowing how to react during crises is extremely important.
Most cruise ships have their own on-board training programmes to ensure you are familiar with their in-house practices. However, some basic training is required before you take on cruise ship jobs.
One of the fundamental training programmes required is STCW – Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping. This certification offers training in coping with emergencies on board, including fire fighting and preventing fires, personal survival techniques, elementary first aid, and the various personal and social responsibilities you must adhere to while living and working on board.
An STCW certificate is a prerequisite to joining the cruise line, and there are refresher courses to keep your certificates updated with the latest requirements every five years.
On board, each cruise line will have training programmes that orient crew with the specific workings of that particular vessel. You will need to know your way around the ship as soon as possible. Some courses give you information and tips on how to deal with guests in varied situations and what the hierarchy is when escalating a matter.
Emergency drills and safety training on board are the most important programmes cruise ship jobs put you through. These tips stay with you for life and can even assist you in situations back home as well.
Paying attention to on-board cruise ship safety training helps avert disasters, particularly since guests can quickly switch to panic mode. Young children and old people need to be given special attention.
Strictly following the protocol of your cruise line can keep everyone out of harm's way, with the best chance of survival in case of disasters. Each department ensures that all its personnel are given refresher courses, and are allotted responsibilities that need to be fulfilled in various situations. Training is also provided in handling emergency equipment such as life jackets, fire extinguishers, life boats, hydrants and breathing apparatus if any.
All crew members will need to know the locations of various emergency equipment, where to locate life jackets during emergencies and how to help passengers with putting them on.
Cruise ship companies also hold leadership training to find crew with aptitude to control crowds. This programme teaches employees the right kind of communication to use while helping large numbers of people to safety while maintaining order and keeping them calm.
Such training programmes help cruise ship crew learn how to first stay calm themselves, and then guide others with clear, coherent instructions. Crisis situations can cause tempers to fray and conflicts to arise between passengers. With training, crew members learn how to recognise situations before they escalate and diffuse stressful scenarios to aid the smooth flow of crisis management plans.
Other equally important training programmes on cruise lines include tutorials on using crew devices for communication and information, getting staff oriented with processes and standard operating procedures specific to your line of work, awareness of HESS policies (Health, Environmental, Safety and Security), etc. Some of these, particularly orientation and policies, are often made available to employees before they come on-board for their cruise ship jobs.

- Was the Dog Protecting its Owner – If a family member of the dog was being assaulted and the dog came to the person's aid, and the dog bit the person attacking its family member, then the individual bit by the dog protecting its family is partially liable for the bite.

Foreign Contribution Regulation Act in India
Rajiv Kumar
Filed in:
Things to do near Malone, WA » Business » Development-Meeting
NGOs meaning to receive funds and donations from various other countries ought to first registered under the arrangements of Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, 1976. Either permanent registration or prior authorization for a specific contribution can be sought from the FCRA Section of Ministry of House Affairs. A registered NGO having presence for a minimum of three years can be registered under this arrangement.
The NGOs can not take foreign contribution straight. For this function they need to be signed up under the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act 1976, commonly referred to as the FCRA.

Online lenders. If you surf a lot on the internet you can easily find online lenders who offer loan that you can get instantly. But you have to be careful because there are risks when you borrow money from online because of fraudsters.Payday loan. This is a type of loan that most online lenders offer. They usually target people who are desperate to get a home loan especially for borrowers who have bad credit history. Usually they offer unreasonable high rates and this may even pull you into deeper debt.

Hard Money Loans for People with Bad Credit Score
Need to apply for a loan but having a problem with approval because of a bad credit history? Are you losing hope and having second thoughts if there are lenders out there who will trust your capabilities to repay a loan? Well, if you're asking if you can still get a loan with bad credit; then the answer is yes. First, let's define what bad credit is. Bad credit is the credit history where your bankruptcy records, late payments, collection accounts, and all the negative transactions you've had with your previous loan and your capability to repay will reflect on your credit score. But how will you get a loan with a bad credit? Let's see what we have to do to get your instant approval loan application approved despite of having a bad credit history.
Start by checking your credit history and rebuild your credit by offering collateral like cash secured-loans where in you borrow against the money you have on your savings account so if you were unable to comply they can easily just take the cash you have on your savings account that's why it's the easiest way to get approved and improve your credit history substantially. You can also try credit unions or smaller banks since these institutions focuses on community and might work with you even if you have a bad credit history. Sometimes it's really frustrating especially if you badly need to loan but don't be fooled by non-bank lenders that you see across online. Yes, they may take advantage of your low credit scores and beware of what they called "payday loan" wherein it's more expensive than traditional loans because of the accumulating fees. If everything fails, try to talk to your family or friends if they can lend you some money but make sure to write every detail in a document or if they have good credit they could be your co-signers.
Lastly, don't make your loan applications too obvious that will make you look like you're struggling financially. Instead, submit all your loan applications in a short period of time. This will give lenders a point of view that you're just shopping around and not trying to look desperate to get a new loan every month.

The Joker as a Satanic Character
Heath Ledger as the Joker
Laughter of the Damned
Given the myriad ways of understanding Heath Ledger's portrayal of the Joker one notices how difficult the character's motivations are to discover. Alfred, played by Michael Caine, provides an anecdote of his own experiences and surmises, "Some men just want to watch the world burn." Though this view may be correct it does little to deepen the audience awareness of the film's questioning of whether human conduct is either good or evil at its root.
The best way to get to the heart of the film's understanding of this dilemma is for the audience to view the Joker as a satanic character—not solely because of his wanton destruction but also because of his philosophical perspective. The Joker's alluded worldview is that good behavior and civilization are the joke, and that just below the surface everyone is as brutal and vicious as himself. He is all the worst parts of the human Id without any restraints, like an Olympian god who cannot suffer mentally or physically from the crimes he commits. One sees his thesis at work in his deeds. The Joker won't kill the hapless Wayne Enterprises accountant who will give up Batman's identity, someone else will do it for him if put under duress which the Joker creates by threatening to bomb a hospital. The same attitude is seen in his plot with the boats. All the people have to do to survive is kill another boat full of people by turning the detonator, an event the Joker anticipates given his belief that someone will want to live so badly they will do monstrous things to each other to remain alive. Of course, the joke is on everyone else; the Joker will blow up a hospital whether or not his demands are met, and he intends to blow up both boats whether or not a dreadful choice is made to murder other people so that one might live.
A close parallel to this mindset is observable in the Book of Job where Satan's primary argument is against human goodness. Just as the Joker's main victim is the heroic Harvey Dent, Satan targets God's righteous servant, Job (Job 1:1). Satan's contention is "put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face" (1:11). Satan assumes that deep down, Job is as ungrateful and if God's favor were taken away—if Job were under the proper duress—the essential evil of his being would emerge (2:5).
In the end, both the Joker and Satan are set back. Decency emerges in difficult times as the would-be victims refuse to blow each other up and Job maintains his innocence, refusing to curse God for his misfortunes. These parallels serve as a solid understanding for not only the otherwise mysterious motivation of the primary villain of The Dark Knight but also the question of human morality that rests at the core of the film.
- Batman - The Dark Knight
Batman - The Dark Knight is the most anticipated movie by the comic fans. In my humble opinion comic movie industry has lost the soul to game like action movies like Spider-Man. Batman movies always had a...
© 2009 Seth Tomko
hmm hm
the joker...he is just a man but with a different side of the normal human being and he did not born like that but he was so because of some circcumstancces as he said in the movie he can not feel pain he is a carless man he is smart and foxy and he is full of deep darkness no sense at all he is just not alive he did not born he still locked in a far away dark and he is also did not die...
If the Joker is Satan, I'd like to know the role you think Batman plays. The metaphor of the unstoppable force and the immovable object comes to mind...
If you did, it wouldn't be the first time; however, you teach English so you probably have better judgment of books than most of us. I'll take my chances.
You know, that makes sense. In a sense I already knew this, but you brought it to light. It appears you've done a number of book reviews. I'll know where to go now, when I want to discover new reading options.
the joker is defintely an iconic character even more becase of heath ledger death
a rare insight, nice to see an analysis of the joker character from the dark knight movie.
wow, thats a really good analysis there. I never really thought of the Joker that way before, but it does make a lot of sense.
A very deep thesis here, friend. And I think you have hit the bulls eye. I enjoyed reading your insights.
I thought it was ingenious how the Joker made up such elaborate lies to tell people about the scars. The Dark Knight was a great movie.
Interesting analysis. I never really thought of The Joker as a satanic character, but I do see the similarities. Especially his multiple attempts and success at tempting people to do things against their will. I also think the fact that he could not be identified contributed to his demonic persona.

An ode to Singapore through the eyes of plein-air artist Lim Cheng Hoe at National Gallery Singapore
The exhibition which features works by one of Singapore's finest watercolourists will open from 2 August 2018
Images courtesy of National Gallery Singapore
Singapore, 26 July 2018 – Reminisce the 1930s to the 1970s with National Gallery Singapore as it presents its latest exhibition, Lim Cheng Hoe: Painting Singapore. This survey showcases Lim's inspiring journey towards becoming Singapore's leading plein-air (the practice of painting outdoors) watercolour artist, as he captured the country's evolving landscapes and people across four decades.
Dr. Eugene Tan, Director of National Gallery Singapore, said, "We are committed to continue expanding upon the current available scholarship and documentation of our Singapore artists and their practice. Special exhibitions such as Lim Cheng Hoe: Painting Singapore complement our permanent gallery displays to build greater understanding towards our art history and the local artistic figures we have such as Lim Cheng Hoe. Through the exhibition, we hope to inspire visitors with both his artistic talent and the influential role he played towards the subsequent development of watercolour in Singapore."
A unique eye for the local, distinct, and natural
Comprising over 60 definitive works of Lim Cheng Hoe (1912 – 1979), the exhibition brings visitors into the mind of the artist through the lens of his diaries, to understand his thoughts that inform his paintings. Acknowledged as one of the finest watercolour artists of his generation in Singapore, Lim was dedicated to portraying his subjects in their natural selves and mood. Many of Lim's works were preoccupied with depicting the transient effects of light and weather on landscapes of Singapore.
Lim's dedication towards plein-air painting imbued in his landscape paintings a sense of place and local identity for Singapore – a Singapore that was in the throes of urbanisation and industrialisation. Lim documented these subjects around him through motifs such as kampongs (villages), boat traffic on the Singapore River, hilltop views, fishing villages, land reclamation and construction sites, as the country moved towards modernisation during a period of decolonisation, self-governance and independence.
Presenting a comprehensive outlook of Lim's practice, the exhibition draws works and artefacts from an expanded range of sources, including the artist's family, private lenders and various public and institutional collections. It would also reveal the lesser-known aspects of his practice including his experiments with a range of subjects and mediums, from oil, ink and still life, to portraits in pastel and chalk, and even exploratory works with unusual brushwork and colours.
Casting spotlight on self-taught artists in Singapore
Though without formal tertiary art education, Lim was undeterred in cultivating his keen interest in art. He went on to master the craft by himself by reading publications such as Artist, International Studio and through social interactions with other watercolour artists; which gave rise to the emergence of the 'Sunday painters' in the 1950s. Together with these artists, Lim would travel to multiple locations around Singapore every Sunday in search of suitable sites to paint before critiquing each others' works in hopes of helping each other explore different approaches towards art. Lim was also known to join a group of artists at the Wesley Church on weekends for indoor studio sessions with live models. All these activities would lead to the discerning construction of his paintings, and a rich and enduring legacy in providing mentorship to the next generation of artists through groups such as the Singapore Watercolour Society.
"This exhibition is a celebration of the life, dedication and practice of Lim Cheng Hoe as a largely self-taught artist. In the exhibition, we draw deeply from his diaries as a way of providing an entry point for visitors to engage with the artistic language that he learnt and experimented through his time under Richard Walker and subsequent informal education." said Qinyi Lim, curator of the exhibition.
Lim Cheng Hoe: Painting Singapore will be held at the City Hall Wing, Level 4 from 2 August 2018 to 9 June 2019. It will open from Saturday to Thursday from 10:00am to 7:00pm and on Fridays from 10:00am to 9:00pm.
This exhibition is co-curated by Qinyi Lim, Goh Sze Ying, Teo Hui Min and Zulfadhli Hilmi, together with guest curator Low Sze Wee, Chief Executive Officer of the Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre and former Director of Curatorial, Collections & Education, National Gallery Singapore.

Despite a slight rise in the number of major delays, the overall performance of the MRT network improved by 30 per cent last year, said the Ministry of Transport.
Trains travelled an average of 174,000km before encountering delays of more than five minutes, up from 133,000km the previous year, said the authorities.
This was due to greater investment in renewal and upgrading efforts, as well as intensified maintenance regimes, Permanent Secretary for Transport Pang Kin Keong said yesterday.
The number of major service delays on Singapore's rail network increased slightly.
There were 16 major breakdowns - delays lasting more than 30 minutes - on the 180km network last year, compared with 15 in 2015.
Last year's figure was double that of five years ago.
The ageing East-West and North- South lines had the most delays: Five and four, respectively.
Mr Pang, who announced the figures at the third Joint Forum on Infrastructure Maintenance, said: "Despite the improvements, the number of service delays of more than 30 minutes has increased in the past three years. I think more needs to be focused on this front."
The best showing of reliability came from the newest line, the Downtown Line, which clocked 260,000km.
The Circle Line, despite suffering a number of delays due to its signalling system last year, achieved 228,000km.
The North-East Line hit 174,000km, while the ageing North-South and East-West lines averaged 156,000km and 145,000km, respectively.
Reliability on the LRT network also improved from 42,000km in 2015 to 49,000km last year, despite having more major delays of more than than half an hour.
There were 18 delays on the Bukit Panjang and Sengkang-Punggol LRT last year, up from 15 in 2015.
However, some commuters said they still encounter delays regularly.
Research nurse Pang Yan, 29, said that she experiences about two delays a month, some lasting more than 10 minutes, while travelling on the East-West Line.
She said that the effects of the delays are particularly bad at interchange stations.
"It can get very crowded at Buona Vista when there is a delay. Sometimes, people even have to stand on the staircases," said Ms Pang, who travels daily from her home in Lakeside to her workplace in Kent Ridge.
Singapore's network reliability falls far short of Hong Kong's MTR, which clocks 360,000km between disruptions, and Taipei's metro, which has a reliability standard of 800,000km.
Mr Pang, however, said that he was confident about meeting the Government's target of 400,000km by 2018.
The Government will spend more than $4 billion on improving rail assets in the next five years, in addition to the $20 billion being spent on new rail lines during the same period, he noted.
The Land Transport Authority (LTA) will work with operators to expand its monitoring tools, including a new-generation automatic system to look at track conditions.
The LTA has also set aside grants to support innovative ideas on how to improve or automate the maintenance process, and will be calling for proposals later this year.
Mr Pang said that the intermittent loss of signalling on the Circle Line last year, which led to a number of delays, was a "clear example" of the need for the LTA, rail operators and the industry to develop deeper knowledge and expertise. "We need to complement the support provided by the system manufacturers with our own technical expertise, and the knowledge we bring of the local operating conditions," he said.

Die usually refers to the cessation of life.
Die may also refer to:
A die is a specialized tool used in manufacturing industries to cut or shape material mostly using a press. Like molds, dies are generally customized to the item they are used to create. Products made with dies range from simple paper clips to complex pieces used in advanced technology.
Forming dies are typically made by tool and die makers and put into production after mounting into a press. The die is a metal block that is used for forming materials like sheet metal and plastic. For the vacuum forming of plastic sheet only a single form is used, typically to form transparent plastic containers (called blister packs) for merchandise. Vacuum forming is considered a simple molding thermoforming process but uses the same principles as die forming. For the forming of sheet metal, such as automobile body parts, two parts may be used: one, called the punch, performs the stretching, bending, and/or blanking operation, while another part, called the die block, securely clamps the workpiece and provides similar stretching, bending, and/or blanking operation. The workpiece may pass through several stages using different tools or operations to obtain the final form. In the case of an automotive component there will usually be a shearing operation after the main forming is done and then additional crimping or rolling operations to ensure that all sharp edges are hidden and to add rigidity to the panel.
Die (French pronunciation: [di]; Occitan: Diá [ˈdjɔ]) is a commune, former episcopal see, and subprefecture of the Drôme department in southeastern France. The region around Die is known as the Diois.
Die is best known for the Clairette de Die, a sparkling wine. It was a county in the High Middle Ages. It was once the see of a Roman Catholic diocese and its cathedral remains.
Die is situated in a valley, surrounded by the Glandasse mountain (6696 feet), a massive and steep rocky barrier, which separates the area (Pays Diois) from the Vercors Plateau. The territory of the commune of Die is part of the regional natural park of these regions.
Clearly, there were inhabitants during the Neolithic age, this has been confirmed by Chanqueyras excavations. A big engraved standing stone and two small menhirs that are now in the Die museum were found near the wine cooperative, (these) also proved inhabitation in this area at that time.
The remains of the final Bronze Age were discovered at La Roche De Marginal, for example, some shards have been found at Chandillon. A first agglomeration seems to have appeared at the beginning of the roman era, on a little mountain pass overhanging the Drôme, and the small valley of Meyrosse, at the crossroad between the valley and the path to Trièves. Lots of clues show the extension of urbanisation during the 1st century.
At the beginning of the 2nd century, the city of Die constructs monuments and becomes a Roman capital, replacing Luc-en-Diois in that function for the Celtic people of northern Voconces. It seems it will be named as a colony towards the end of the 2nd century or during the 3rd century because the town became an important centre of fertility goddess Cybele's cult.
Thriller may refer to:
Thriller is the third full-length album by Lambchop, released in 1997.
The album title was chosen as a reference to the Michael Jackson album of the same name, one of the biggest-selling albums of all time, as an in-joke by frontman Kurt Wagner regarding the low sales of the first two Lambchop albums.
The track "Your Fucking Sunny Day" was released as a single from the album in a re-recorded "clean" version, under the title "Your Sucking Funny Day".
Three of the songs, "Hey Where's Your Girl", "Crawl Away" and "Superstar in France" are cover versions of songs from the album Poor Fricky by East River Pipe also released on Merge Records.
The sleeve is a painting by Wayne White, a childhood friend of Wagner who also provided cover art for Nixon, Aw Cmon and No You Cmon by the band.
Thriller is the third EP released by South Korean boy band BtoB. It was released on September 9, 2013, consisting a total of 6 tracks with Thriller as title track and the promotional single of the album.
On August 23, 2013, Cube Entertainment released concept pictures for "When I Was Your Man", a pre-release track from the album before the official release with a special music video for the song released a few days later. On September 4, 2013, BtoB uploaded the music video of Thriller on their official YouTube channel and on the same day they performed Thriller and When I Was Your Man on MBC's Show Champion prior to the release date of the EP.
The EP features a total of 6 tracks with 5 tracks co-written by the members of BtoB themselves and the third track of the EP titled 왜이래 (Why) was composed and co-written by label mate Beast's Lee Gi-kwang.
The EP opens with the first track When I Was Your Man, a classy and soft, laid back track. The song is about a man looking back at a past relationship, and reflecting how different he is now. The second track of the album, Thriller, a dynamic song with a story of a fallen knight coming back to life to finish their mission of saving their princess. It is a song that focuses on that rush they get as they rise from the grave. The third track Why is an R&B influenced track that tells the story of a man who has realized that his lover has no feelings left for him. The fourth track Catch Me is a song that is focused on the feelings one experiences that moment he falls in love. The fifth track Like a Crystal, is a song largely accompanied by an acoustic guitar and the last track Star is a ballad song that samples the bars of the famous nursery rhyme, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".

Better Late Than Never is coming back for more.
The series has been picked up for a second season at NBC, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.

"This innovative format allows for unprecedented escapades that cut through the clutter and grabbed viewers' attention. We can't wait to see what places they explore and how they adapt to their environment in season two."
Added Winkler: "The success of season one was such a joyous surprise. I can't wait to see where Bill, Terry, George, Jeff and I will be exploring next. Anybody know where we are going? They don't tell me anything!"
Winkler exec produces Better Late Than Never with Craig Zadan & Neil Meron, Jason Ehrlich, Alex Katz and Tim Crescenti. Universal Television Alternative Studio produces the series in association with Storyline Entertainment, Small World IFT and CJ E&M.
The show is based on the original series Grandpa Over Flowers, which airs in China and South Korea.

FORT STEWART, Ga. — Master Sgt. Rollie Jenkins, a wheeled-vehicle mechanic by training, told his soldiers again today that he would destroy boxer Floyd "Money" Mayweather in a martial arts fight, sources confirmed.
After spending five days of training in the Army's martial arts system, the Modern Army Combatives Program (MACP), Jenkins said he was ready to finish what Conor McGregor could not.
"Too easy too easy!" Jenkins said. "Floyd's defensive by nature, he's weak. I'd be aggressive, I'd get the violents [sic] of action goin', and I'd achieve the clench on him. Boom."
Defense analysts estimate that MACP training has caused more than 25,000 casualties to soldiers who thought they could "totally fuck that dude up" after achieving Level 1 certification.
To spur a possible matchup with Mayweather, Jenkins said he plans to release a YouTube challenge video, recorded vertically on his cell phone, that demonstrates his skills while calling Mayweather out.
"He ordered me to get choked out on video until I peed," said Pfc. Tom Larson, one of Jenkins' soldiers. "Twice."
Still, Larson and some other soldiers are skeptical of Jenkins' claims.
"That old fart hasn't done PT since 9/11," Larson said. "He took one intro course and thinks he's a goddamned black belt now. He broke his ankle trying an arm-bar last month."

By Susi Hately, BSc. Kinesiology, C-IAYT Yoga Therapist
Last weekend a friend posted on Facebook that he was headed to one of the bigger malls in Calgary "on the last Saturday before Christmas and to check back in with him to make sure he came out alive".
If you too are feeling overwhelmed by the hoards, havoc and the sometimes chaos that can arise in these last few days, here is are two easy breathing techniques that can support you.
1. Straw Breathing
What I love about straw breathing is that it very naturally lengthens the exhale. How? Breathing through a straw requires you to lengthen your exhale. The real beauty of this exercise is you don't have to think about trying to lengthen your exhale, which can cause mental tension and frustration – you are just breathing through a straw, and the straw does it for you.
Why it works. It is often believed that to get more breath in, the inhale needs to be deeper. In reality, if you empty your exhale completely you will often get a much fuller and more effective inhale in. This can go a long way to feeling calmer, more at ease, and more able to deal with some of the goofiness that can arise during this festive season.
How to do it:
- Sit quietly with back against a wall or in a chair. You can do this on your back too.
- If you are sitting be sure your pelvis is settled equally between the sitting bones.
- For 1 minute, breathe normally and count the number of breaths you breathe – on the exhale.
- After 1 minute, place the straw between your lips and exhale through the straw. Inhale through your nose. Continue breathing like this through the straw for 3 minutes. Exhale through the straw, inhale through your nose.
- Count your breaths again for 1 minute and notice what has changed.
Over time, you can increase the straw breathing from 3 minutes to 10-15 minutes.
Note: There are people who will find that straw breathing makes them feel claustrophobic, and more anxious. Please do not try to force your way into the exercise. Just drop the straw, and try the following.
2. Reverse The Cycle of Your Breath
Even though breathing is a continuous cycle, we often think of breathing as inhale first then exhale. This exercise shifts it up, focuses moreso on the exhale, which can bring about feelings of calm and ease.
Why it works. It comes down to perception, shifting awareness and focus. Just by changing your focal point, the feeling inside can also shift.
How to do it:
- Sit quietly. Breathe.
- After a couple of normal cycles, focus on exhale first, then inhale.
- Repeat 6-10 times. Notice what you are aware of, what you are present to.
- Continue for another 6-10 times. And again notice.
- Bring the exercise to a close. Pause for a breath or two, and continue on.
Take care of yourself this festive season.
