MRT - Mass Rapid Transit

New MRT facilities can be enjoyed by its passengers in Singapore, now in every door equipped with route display panel as a train direction, the red blinking light shows which station we are now (so, no more self question ... 'where are we now? What station is this?) and yellow light shows the train route. This changing is really helpful because the train direction is a bit confusing me sometimes, especially when you are in Dhoby Ghaut (read in Indonesia : ' Dobi Got ') or City Hall station with lots of train tunnel. And it is refreshing my eyes with it's fancy look, even though it is a bit costly i guess ... of course, with that much train operation everyday in this island wide, in each door installed this route panel display, just imagine how much money government spent for this fresh look in this monetary crisis.

This helps prevent fat buildup in the body, thwarting weight gain. Vinegar has been used in folk remedies since ancient times. In recent years, research has suggested that acetic acid, the organic chemical in vinegar which gives it its sour taste, can help control blood pressure and sugar. The Japanese researchers, led by Dr Tomoo Kondo from the Central Research Institute of the Mizkan Group Corporation, found that vinegar could influence genes link to fatty acid oxidation and heat-generating (energy-burning) proteins. They feed mice a high-fat diet. One group of mice was given vinegar through a stomach tube. Another group was given a lower dose – vinegar diluted with water – and a third group was not given vinegar. The experiment showed that all the vinegar-fed m...
