Singapore Circle: China to consider hosting 2018 Finals
http://singaporecircle.blogspot.com/2007/03/china-to-consider-hosting-2018-finals.html
Thursday, March 1, 2007. China to consider hosting 2018 Finals. LONDON - CHINA is considering a bid to stage the 2018 World Cup Finals, said Fifa president Sepp Blatter. It had hosted the inaugural women's World Cup in 1991, and will also host this year's tournament from Sept 10-30. As for its men's national team, they made only one appearance in the World Cup Finals - in 2002, when Japan and South Korea co-staged the event. But I'm not a prophet. I can't see where the World Cup is going.'. It may also b...

http://singaporecircle.blogspot.com/2007/03/england-feel-full-weight-of-law-in.html
Wednesday, March 7, 2007. England feel 'full weight of the law' in Leverock. ARNOS VALE (ST VINCENT) - THE British press have a new pin-up: Bermuda's Dwayne 'Sluggo' Leverock. The roly-poly left-arm spinner dismissed two of England's best one-day batsmen in their World Cup warm-up match on Monday. The 35-year-old Leverock's 120kg frame was an excuse for sports editors to trot out a few weight-related jibes yesterday. 19st part-time bowler flattens England stars' was The Sun's headline. However, Ireland's...

Singapore Feed: Encourage older people to downsize their homes in order to be financially viable in their old age
http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/encourage-older-people-to-downsize.html
Saturday, March 3, 2007. Encourage older people to downsize their homes in order to be financially viable in their old age. I refer to the letter, 'Estate-duty laws unfair to the middle income' (ST, March 1). I have often wondered, and for a long time, why there is such a disparity of exemption in estate-duty laws, namely, $9 million for property assets and only $600,000 for all 'Other Assets'.

Singapore Feed: Window changes mar beauty of Punggol 21
http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/window-changes-mar-beauty-of-punggol-21.html
Saturday, March 10, 2007. Window changes mar beauty of Punggol 21. I WOULD like to highlight a situation that is occurring at Punggol 21. Each cluster of flats in Punggol has its unique look and identity. For instance, some flats have azure blue full-height windows. However, many flats in the estate have crossed the five-year mark and have been put on the market. Then comes the renovation. Unfortunately, this often involves a change of windows which are invariably different from the original ones. Encour...

http://singaporefeed.blogspot.com/2007/03/microsoft-slams-google-over-global.html
Friday, March 9, 2007. The censure by top Microsoft lawyer Tom Rubin came as the two corporate titans step up their competition in both software and online content. His remarks were a foretaste of a speech he was making in New York on Tuesday to the Association of American Publishers. Google has already said its practices generate more earnings for authors and publishers. Mr Rubin called Google's goal of compiling a vast database of indexed literature, accessible from anywhere, 'a worthy goal'. Mr David ...

Friday, March 9, 2007. Kaka's goal sees Milan through to last eight. MILAN - AC MILAN had Kaka to thank, after reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League. But the Italians' stilted all-round display against Celtic raised questions about how much further they can go. The 24-year-old Brazilian scored in extra time to give the six-time European champions a 1-0 win over the Scottish side on Wednesday. I'm very happy to have helped Milan in a match that was so difficult,' said Kaka. Jarosik saw his f...

Friday, March 2, 2007. O'Neal fires season-high 23 points. WASHINGTON - JUST like the old times, Shaquille O'Neal assumed dominance when it mattered most on Wednesday.

Said O'Neal, who missed 39 games this season with a knee injury: 'I don't have the same explosiveness yet, but it's coming back.'. He is scheduled ...
