Hi 1A2,
It's been quite a long time ever since i posted something.
So today i am going to post something new.
Those who reads Reader's Digest,you will know.
The tittle is Reader's Digest : Facts
The "Facts" here means that it answers to life's little mysteries.
So let's begin....

Question: Why don't cats like to swim?

Many people think that cats are afraid of water. They're not. Occasionally, one can see a cat pounce spontaneously into the water. Nature documentary fans can attest to the fact that many of the cats' larger relatives, such as tigers and jaguars, love to swim.

So why isn't your cat likely to stick a paw into the pool? For the same reasons it always drives you nuts: it has a cleanliness and fetish, and it's lazy.Your cat refuses to have a good time.
It won't get wet because it figures it isn't worth the effort needed to dry and clean itself with it's tongue to enjoy something superficial as marine frolic.

Unless you starve it and stock your pool with fish,your cat is likely to remain landlocked.

That's all folks!

Cool regards,
Kush

Hi there 1A2,
Some of you pleaded me to post about Thomas Alva Edison.
So,HERE IT IS!!!
Thomas Alva Edison

Thomas Alva Edison (February 11, 1847 – October 18, 1931) was
an American inventor and businessman who developed many devices
that greatly influenced life around the world,including the
phonograph and the long-lasting, practical electric light bulb. Dubbed "The
Wizard of Menlo Park" by a newspaper reporter, he was one of the first
inventors to apply the principles of mass production and large teamwork
to the process of invention, and therefore is often credited with the creation
of the first industrial research laboratory.

Edison is considered one of the most prolific inventors in

history, holding 1,093 U.S. patents in his name, as well as many

patents in the United Kingdom, France and Germany. He is credited

with numerous inventions that contributed to mass communication and, in

particular, telecommunications. His advanced work in these fields was an

outgrowth of his early career as a telegraph operator.

Edison originated the concept and implementation of electric-power

generation and distribution to homes, businesses, and factories - a crucial

development in the modern industrialized world. His first power plant was

on Manhattan Island, New York.

Knowledgeable,

Kush

Message by blog master-Kush

It's been a great pleasure being a student of 1A2.I truly enjoyed the different times we all experienced-times of joy and times of sadness.Majority of us are going to another class,some of you may think that that's the end of 1A2'08.But,think again,we can still communicate with each other through the blog-after all,that's what the blog is meant for.

People of 1A2 turned strangers into friends and friends into enemies.To me,this is normal.In fact,i believe we do it everyday.

The good and bad memories of 1A2'08 will be remembered and hence will make a place in everyone's huge heart.

Right now,i believe that all of us are disappointed that not all classmates will be together again.For those who will be together again,my advice to you is to treasure that moment very much.You will be separated one day because no one is the same.

All of us should understand that the last day of 1A2'08,is not the last day of the world.We can have some meet-ups once in a while.

The moments i had together with 1A2 is commendable.I believe that 1A2 is a courteous and a joyful class.I will really miss 1A2,for not only its peers but its spirit as well.

Remember to try your best to visit this very class blog regularly.At least,all the memories won't be washed away that easily.

By the way,i would like to wish every single one of you all the best for everything you come across in life-no matter easy or difficult.

With that,i would like to end my speech.

Thank you once again.

I will dearly miss 1A2.

Goodbye!

Warm regards,
Kush

Hi 1A2!
Singapore News
AG asks for substantial fine against Dow Jones Publishing in contempt case

SINGAPORE: The Singapore attorney general's contempt of court proceedings
against The Asian Wall Street Journal (AWSJ) opened in the High Court on Tuesday.


Attorney General Walter Woon said laws against contempt of court are not a
restriction on freedom of speech or expression.


At the centre of the proceedings are two articles and a letter in the AWSJ which,
the attorney general argued, impugned the impartiality, integrity and independence
of the Singapore judiciary. The articles appeared in June and July this year.

Professor Woon said the right to criticise does not give anyone the licence to make
irresponsible accusations against the judiciary.

He said many of the AWSJ's readers are "opinion-shapers", and the intent of the
articles is clear - that is to influence their opinion against Singapore's courts and
judiciary.


Senior Counsel Philip Jeyaretnam, representing the AWSJ, gave his client's

interpretations of some words cited for contempt in the articles.

The attorney general also addressed the issue of sentencing during his submission.
He said if the Dow Jones Publishing Company is found guilty of contempt, then a
substantial fine be imposed so that a strong signal is also sent to others.

The case was heard before Justice Tay Yong Kwang. Justice Tay has reserved his
judgment till November 25.

Hi 1A2,
As promised that the Tourist Attraction Week will resume after the exams,here it is!
Well,today i am going to share with you about Jurong Bird Park.
let's begin our adventure!
Famous attractions in Jurong Bird Park:

1) Waterfall Aviary

This two-hectare Waterfall Aviary remains as the world’s largest walk-in aviary with the highest man-made waterfall standing at over 30 metres. It is home for some 1,500 free-flying birds from Africa and South America, and provides visitors with a unique opportunity to watch them roost, bathe, feed and even raise their young in their nests. Set in a valley, the Aviary is landscaped with 10,000 exotic plants comprising 125 species of trees, bamboo, palms and ground-cover vegetation to simulate a tropical rain forest. In addition, an artificial 8-m tall tree moulded from an actual 100-year-old Barking Deer’s Mango tree has also been planted to enhance the rainforest landscape.

Red-crested Turaco Red-throated Bee-eater

Visitors can stroll along shaded walkways and enjoy the rainforest experience, which comes complete with mysterious bird calls, a rambling waterfall, and mist profusing along gorges. A rustic suspension bridge offers a breath-taking view of the waterfall while two observation posts at the top offer grand views of the Aviary.

A thrilling encounter is the feeding of the bee-eaters and starlings in all shades of blue as they hunt after their food – grasshoppers, crickets, worms and other insects – which are released during feeding times. You can get to feed the birds too!

The Aviary is accessible both by foot and the Park’s air-conditioned Panorail train. The latter is, however, a more dramatic way of arriving at the Aviary. In fact, the Park scored a first in the world when it incorporated a Panorail Station inside a walk-in aviary.

2) Royal Ramble

Scheepmaker's Crowned Pigeons

Victoria Crowned Pigeons

Victoria Crowned Pigeons

A 40-metre long walkway takes you right through the enclosure, featuring the Crowned Pigeons, the largest pigeons in the world. There are railings to lean and benches to sit on, all designed for a leisurely encounter with these birds who are often mistaken for miniature peafowls.

Named after the Crowned Pigeons' noble looks and regal walk, Royal Ramble offers an unobtrusive view of the largest pigeons in the world.

Whether the birds are rambling on the ground, or roosting in the treetops, you'll be privy to their lacy crowns and elaborate plumage, funny sunbathing poses and intricate courtship behaviour of bows and deep vocalisation.

If you are lucky, one might just decide to display its courtship ceremony to you.

This is how intimate an encounter the BirdPark is offering you.

3) Jungle Jewels

Paradise Tanager Sparkling Voiletear

Sparkling Voiletear

The design of Jungle Jewels walk-in aviary creates an environment where visitors can observe at close proximity a fraction of the amazing diversity and complexity of the South American rainforest.

High in the treetops live fruit-eating birds like the tanagers and cotingas. In the lower levels, honeycreepers and finches are more common. On the forest floor and streams live the waterbirds like teals and pintails.

Now i will tell you of how you can go to Jurong Bird Park and opening hours.

GETTING THERE

If you are driving,

  • From AYE, use Exit 17.
