The first - in Woodleigh Close - is seen as an attractive site by property consultants, as it is a short walk from the Potong Pasir MRT station and the yet-to-be-opened Woodleigh MRT station. Developers can build 260 to 290 apartments on the 1.08ha site, which has a maximum gross floor area of 30,167 sq m. Property consultants expect the site to attract bids of $300 to $370 per sq ft

There is a LOT of conspiracy theory in this article, so be warned, but the underlying message is most likely right on. There are too many people who would be hurt in the wallet by Ron Paul, and some of them may already have plans to deal with him if he were to become a serious enough threat to think Ron Paul could win. Daniel Estulin says he has received information from sources inside the U.S. intelligence community suggesting that people from the highest levels of government are discussing "eliminating" Rep.

newsmaker Much of the future success of Adobe Systems hinges on the work done by its Platform business unit headed by Kevin Lynch, the company’s chief software architect. But if the pressure’s getting to him, it’s not showing. Plus, he figures, Adobe’s got the Web at large working for him.
Adobe makes the bulk of its money from packaged software in its Creative Suite, which includes Photoshop, Illustrator and other creative design tools.
As it looks ahead, Adobe is trying to diversify into online services for consumers and businesses. And it would like to keep its audience of Web developers and designers loyal and not lose them to Microsoft, which is increasingly competing with Adobe.
That’s where Adobe’s Platform group comes in. It designs the plumbing that will allow Adobe product groups to offer online services and other companies to write cutting-edge applications.

Vegetable Plots. (Landscapes 5)Simple and straightforward, vegetable plots behind some cottages in the village of St Bartelamy. There is nothing fancy about these little plots of land; they exist simply to provide food. They are tended every day by old men and women, there is not a weed in sight, and a well-trodden path leads up to the boules pitch. This is a life, not much talked about but well lived and hardly changing. To me this path running up to the backs of the cottages illustrated so well that timeless feeling that villages have, especially when you go round the back way, off the road and along the snickets.25.5cm x 20.5cm. 10in x 8in.Watercolour .

Britain is a small country in comparison to America and is reliant on immigrant workers for many of its industries. In this case it was a group of physicians that were conspiring to commit terrorist acts. People are shocked that doctors would do this but it is just proof that religious extremism crosses all socio-economic and educational boundaries. The question I would ask is has Britain willingly allowed itself to become dependent upon these foreign doctors? If so why? Why would a country hand over such a vital part of a support industry such as the medical field to foreigners? Crazy you say? Asking for trouble you say? How about a country that hands over its fresh food industry to foreign nationals without so much as a check to see if they are in the country legally? Would they deserve what they get if they suddenly had major outbreaks of food contamination such as oh say e-coli?

Reports are coming in about a flaming car that has crashed into an airport terminal in Scotland. Using classic fear-mongering tactics, the mainstream press has been alleging that this incident and car bombs found in London yesterday (free registration required) are Islamic terrorist plots, ruling out the possibility that these actions could come from elsewhere in the world or spring from other ideologies. Don’t get suckered in. Listen to what actual officials are saying, not what the press is insinuating. If you read each article closely, you’ll notice that officials have yet to blame anyone for either of these plots, which is the right way to handle these issues, in my opinion. Wait until you have the facts, please.

This Man Leads Al Qaida's Nuclear '9/11' Plan
He is the most wanted man in America yet most Americans have never heard his name. He has been described as the "Fixer" of the Sept. 11 attacks. Several captured al-Qaida operatives have revealed this is the same man who bin Laden has tapped to lead the terror group's diabolical scheme to detonate nuclear devices simultaneously in several U.S. cities.

DDA has not been able to woo a single buyer for any of nine hotel plots put for sale on Tuesday. Hotel developers are showing the least interest and finding cites to be located at unattractive places. The auction concluded a two day effort by the land holder to sell 19 plots, of which only three were sold.
What is putting off the prospective buyers from buying the plots is DDA’s poor choice of location, according to a poll of hoteliers. Considering the same, some of the plots were being priced as low as Rs 14.15 crore for about a third of an acre, or about Rs 33 crore per acre.
The plots are located in the areas including Rohini, Dwarka, and Mayur Vihar and in other secondary areas of Delhi. The authority’s failure to sell the hotel plots has raised questions regarding the government’s ability to accomplish its target of 30,000 additional rooms in the Capital by 2010. This seems to have discouraged the tourism ministry which is completely counting on DDA and other hotel agencies

Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, one of the main plotters of the 9-11 attacks, has confessed to being the mastermind behind as many as 28 terrorist plots and attacks:WASHINGTON (AP) - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, confessed to that attack and a chilling string of other terror plots during a military hearing at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, according to a transcript released Wednesday by the Pentagon."I was responsible for the 9/11 operation from A to Z," Mohammed said in a statement read during the session, which was held last Saturday.The transcripts also refer to a claim by Mohammed that he was tortured by the CIA, although he said he was not under duress at the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo when he confessed to his role in the attacks.In a section of the statement that was blacked out, he confessed to the beheading of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, The Associated Press has learned.

Liverpool boss Rafael Benitez is reportedly plotting a summer move for Barcelona striker Samuel Eto'o.The Spaniard tried to sign Cameroon striker Eto'o two years ago when he left Real Mallorca but couldn't match Barca's spending power.However the arrival at Anfield of American tycoons George Gillett and Tom Hicks has given Benitez money to spend, and has coincided with reports Eto'o will leave the Nou Camp in the summer.The 25-year-old has fallen out with Barca coach Frank Rijkaard and team-mate Ronaldinho in recent weeks after claims he refused to come on as a substitute against Racing Santander.That has led to him being linked with a move to both Chelsea and Arsenal, but it appears former Valencia manager Benitez's contacts in Spain have sprung Liverpool to the front of the queue in the race for Eto'o, who has been rated at anywhere between £20million and £50million by the media.If Eto'o does move to Anfield, he will join Andriy Voronin there, with the Ukraine striker movi

MI5 tracking '30 UK terror plots'
BBC: MI5 knows of 30 terror plots threatening the UK and is keeping 1,600 individuals under surveillance, the security service's head has said.
Dame Eliza Manningham-Buller warned the threat was "serious" and "growing".
She said future attacks could be chemical or nuclear and that many of the plots were linked to al-Qaeda.
Prime Minister Tony Blair said the terrorist threat was "very real" and spoke of "poisonous propaganda" warping the minds of young people.
So, the world, mostly in the UK and US was turned upside down once again by a 'Foiled Terrorist Plot". Yesterday's news in the UK caused a lot more panic and disruption than any other recently, which begs a lot of people to question what's actually in the works behind the scenes.The important section of this post comes at the end (Re: Alex Jone's Prediction) but, to help put this into another perspective, I'd like to share some articles of interest. First up is this article by JOSHUA MICAH MARSHALL of Time Magazine, which was published on July 7th.http://www.time.com/time/nation/...htmlA snippit:In these perilous days, we must be ready to think the unthinkable. No, I don't mean the possibility of a catastrophic terrorist attack. After 9/11, that's all too easy to imagine.
