I gave this game four stars out of five as I tend to be quite biased about this series (haha) and I am trying to give a helpful, open minded review. The graphics are excellent, even when played through an old banger of a TV like my own,and the dance coaches are sharply defined against more imaginative backgrounds than the previous games.
Gameplay is as easy as it always was; choose a mode, pick a song, then dance. You can use the ready made screen names so you can get dancing straight away, otherwise you can choose to create a new DancerCard. This is the first "new" feature of the game and basically it's so you can quickly track your statistics (play time, best songs etc) or in Sweat Mode, to keep track of which classes you have completed and the overall calories you have burned. To create your DancerCard you simply have to enter your name, age and gender. You can then choose an avatar, the first feature I noticed reminiscent of Just Dance 1 (remember that chibi thing and the doughnut?) though until you've played the game a bit and started unlocking rewards there are only about ten to choose from.
Choosing a song to dance to is the same, again the song selection screen slightly similar to Just Dance 1. There's a good selection of music here, most of it very lively, though I expect some people will have their complaints.(See full track list above on main page).Read more ›
I only received it today...but I have already been playing it for 3 hours straight. Just Dance 4 is really addictive and fun and being able to achieve next levels encourages you to play for even longer.
I got 'Just Dance the Best of' and really liked playing that, so I just had to get this.
This game is even better, good music and dance moves. A bit more difficult to learn than the other games, but that makes it better!
Over 40 songs and you can buy even more with your wii points if you like.
The just sweat part teaches you dance moves and work outs - you can choose which types of dancing you like most and learn the moves/ work outs.
I'd recommend this game to anybody who loves dancing!
It is 43 songs, not 50 and has no "PSY Gangnam Style" on it.
-the main reason for this, is that you can put on the Just Sweat mode, dance through a few songs, and have a daily 30-60 minute work out.
The enjoyment coming from being able to pick the songs you want to dance to and be able to determine whether to take it up a notch, slow down the pace, or just focus on beating your high score on your favourite routine.
Then enter JD4…
Now, I will hold my hand up and say that graphically, this is the best of the lot, and there is a great selection of songs on it…
but, I am left flabbergasted by the decision to ruin the Just Sweat mode.
Call me crazy, but you cannot truly believe you are improving on a game, when you take away something from it?
…and especially something so fundamental!
To clarify this, the Just Sweat mode on this game gives you ONLY the choice of doing selected work-out routines, which are made up of randomly computer-selected songs, interspersed with aerobics and warm-ups.
So in other words, you are at the mercy of the game as to what you dance to, and cannot pace yourself with your favourite songs and routines.
This is an awful piece of regression by the makers, and there is no reason for it.Read more ›

The school has a lot of people from different races and ethnicities. The only problem is that many people here are ignorant about the cultures that exist here and how to behave correctly around the diverse cultures.
Towson is an extremely diverse university. There is a lot of diverse students.
Very diverse student crowd in University.
There is a lot of diversity on campus and in the Greek life.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
Students have mixed feelings about the diversity on campus. Some say that the campus is very diverse, while others do not at all. Many feel that the image of diversity is not portrayed that well, either. This is because students on campus tend to stick with people who share similar backgrounds in terms of race, social class, and ethnicity. There are also many organizations available for minority groups, which offers minorities the opportunity to find friends who share similar backgrounds.
It can take some time to meet new friends or to join a multicultural organization you are interested in, especially because students tend to surround themselves with people who share similar backgrounds. As a result, the image of diversity can become slightly skewed. The best advice for students who would like to overcome this standard is to join multicultural organizations or just reach out to someone who is very different from the people they normally hang out with.

La. Sports Hall of Fame welcoming 8 new inductees
Published: Saturday, January 10, 2009 at 11:30 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, January 10, 2009 at 11:53 p.m.
NATCHITOCHES Former NFL stars Marshall Faulk, William Roaf and Michael Brooks, along with former MotoGP world champion Freddie Spencer and golf great Hal Sutton, are among the eight 2009 inductees in the Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame.
Womens basketball coaching trailblazer Sonja Hogg, innovative LSU athletic trainer Marty Broussard and Carrice Russell Baker, the states winningest all-time girls high school basketball coach, complete the Halls 2009 induction class.
They will be enshrined Saturday, June 27 in Natchitoches to culminate the June 25-27 2009 Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame Induction Celebration.
Broussard will be honored posthumously.
A 30-member Louisiana Sports Writers Association committee selected the 2009 inductees.
The panel considered a record 132 nominees from 21 different sport categories.
This summers inductions will be the Hall of Fames golden anniversary induction class.
The initial three inductees baseballs Mel Ott, world champion boxer Tony Canzoneri and LSU football great Gaynell Tinsley were enshrined in 1959 after their election a year earlier.
The eight new inductees will raise the total of Hall of Fame members to 269 men and women.
Their achievements will be soon be celebrated in the 27,500-square foot, $18.3 million Louisiana State Museum-Natchitoches/Louisiana Sports Hall of Fame complex in the early stages of construction in his-toric downtown Natchitoches.
The 2009 Induction Celebration will kick off the evening of June 25 with a press conference and reception.
It includes three receptions, a June 26 afternoon celebrity pro-am golf scramble at Oak Wing Golf Course in Alexandria, and a June 27 youth sports clinic hosted on the Northwestern State University campus.
Tickets for the induction ceremonies and dinner, and golf entries, will go on sale in April, Hall of Fame chairman Doug Ireland said.
Also to be honored at the event will be the winner of the 2009 Dave Dixon Louisiana Sports Leadership Award and the recipient of the 2009 Distinguished Service Award in Sports Journalism presented by the Louisiana Sports Writers Associa-tion.
Those award recipients will be announced this spring.

Aug 20, 2009 • Review of Pentax X70
I am very interested in this camera. I rated the camera only on other's opinions. However I am wondering about the EVF not having a diopter. What about those of us who wears glasses and without a diopter it may become difficult to focus.
I would like to hear from someone who has the K70 and wears glasses.
No problems 'til I actually use the camera on speculation in the store.

Product Description
From the Inside Flap
The past three decades have been challenging ones for macroeconomists. Key variables in macroeconomicsthe levels of output, inflation, and unemployment; interest rates; and foreign exchange rateshave proved difficult to explain and predict. This period also has been an active one in macroeconomic theory, a period of controversy but also of progress. The years since the late 1960s saw a growing number of challenges to Keynesian economics, which was the dominant paradigm of the early 1960s. The 1970s witnessed a growing interest in monetarism and the emergence of the new classical economics. In the 1980s, Keynesian policy prescriptions came under attack from a group called the supply-side economists. The 1980s also witnessed the development of two contrasting lines of research on the business cycle: the new Keynesian economics and the real business cycle theory. However, there has been progress as well as controversy. During the past 30 years there have been significant improvements in the handling of expectations, in our understanding of labor market institutions, in accounting for the macroeconomic implications of various market structures, in the modeling of open economies, and in accounting for the ultimate sources of economic growth.
In this book I have tried to explain macroeconomics, inclusive of recent developments, in a coherent way but without glossing over the fundamental disagreements among macroeconomists on issues of both theory and policy. The major modern macroeconomic theories are presented and compared. Important areas of agreement as well as differences are discussed. An attempt is made to demonstrate that the controversies among macroeconomists center on well-defined issues that are based on theoretical differences in the underlying models.FEATURES
Distinguishing features of the approach taken here include the following:
- An up-to-date summary of the Keynesian position, including research that has come to be called the new Keynesian economics.
- A detailed analysis of the challenges to the Keynesian position by the monetarists, new classical economists, and real business cycle theorists.
- An extensive treatment of monetary policy that considers the optimal strategy for monetary policy, including targeting on monetary aggregates versus targeting on interest rates, as well as consideration of recent policy changes in central bank operating procedures in a number of other countriesmost importantly the move to inflation targeting.
- An analysis of the post-1970 slowdown in U.S. output growth, capital formation, and growth in labor productivity. Within this context of intermediate-run growth the views of the supply-side economists and their critics are examined. Also within this context of the determinants of rates of intermediate-run economic growth, we consider whether there are signs that the productivity slowdown of the 1970s has been reversed. Is there a "new economy" developing for the new century?
- A consideration of the determinants of long-run economic growth. Both the neoclassical growth model and recent models of endogenous growth are discussed.
- Consideration of foreign exchange rate determination, including discussion of recent proposals for policy coordination, target zones for exchange rates, and common currency areas, in particular the euro-zone.
- An examination of monetary and fiscal policy effects in the open economy, within the framework of the Mundell-Fleming model.
Part I (Chapters 1-2) discusses the subject matter of macroeconomics, the recent behavior of the U.S. economy, and questions of measurement. Part II (Chapters 3-13) presents the major macroeconomic models, beginning with the classical system in Chapters 3-4. Consideration of the classical system at the start is useful because the Keynesian model can then be viewed as an attack on the classical orthodoxy. Challenges to the Keynesian position can then be rooted in the parts of the classical model that provides starting points for their analysis: the quantity theory of money for the monetarists, and the classical labor market clearing assumptions and choice-theoretic-based behavioral functions for the new classical and real business cycle economists.
The Keynesian model is analyzed in detail in Chapters 5-8, beginning from a very simple model; more complex models are built up to incorporate monetary influences, wage and price flexibility, changing price expectations, and shocks to aggregate supply. Chapter 9 examines monetarism and the issues in the monetarist-Keynesian controversy. Chapter 10 examines the monetarist view of the unemployment-inflation trade-off and the natural rate theory, as well as the Keynesian view on the same issues. Chapter 11 considers the new classical theory with its central concepts of rational expectations and market clearing. The Keynesian response to the new classical economics is then considered. Chapter 12 examines two recent directions in macroeconomic research. One, very strongly rooted in the classical tradition, is the real business cycle theory. The second, the new Keynesian economics, is, as its name suggests, firmly in the Keynesian tradition. Chapter 13 summarizes and compares the different models.
Part III considers open economy macroeconomics. Chapter 14 focuses on exchange rate determination and the choice of an international monetary system. Chapter 15 utilizes the Mundell-Fleming model to examine the effects of monetary and fiscal policy in the open economy.
Part IV deals with macroeconomic policymonetary policy in Chapters 16 and 17, then fiscal policy in Chapter 18.
In Part V we present extensions of the models and consider parts of the models in greater detail. Chapter 19 examines questions of long-term economic growth and the determinants of growth over intermediate periods, periods too long to fit the short-run framework of the models of Part II, but not necessarily situations of long-run equilibrium. Chapter 20 is a more detailed examination of the components of private sector demand: consumption and investment expenditure. Finally, Chapter 21 extends the earlier analysis of money demand.
In the section on macroeconomic models, the conceptual approach taken is to develop each model within the aggregate demand-aggregate supply framework in order to facilitate comparisons among the models. Throughout the book the aim is to provide a clear and rigorous analysis. Other pedagogical features are the explanatory captions provided for the graphs in the text and end-of-chapter questions and problems.
Most chapters also contain Perspectives sections, which relate the material in the text to events in the real economy.NEW FEATURES IN THE SEVENTH EDITION
- There have been a number of pedagogical improvements in this edition. These include: better graphics, some simplifications in notation, more use of graphs rather than tables to display data, and more numerical examples.
- A number of new Perspectives sections have been added, several dealing with international questions such as the launch of the Euro, the possibility of a "liquidity trap" in Japan, and the use of currency boards or dollarization as alternative exchange rate mechanisms in countries such as Argentina and Ecuador. Other new Perspectives consider the possibility of "irrational exuberance" in the U.S. stock market in the 1990s and the implications of complete elimination of the U.S. national debt.
- The chapter on fiscal policy has been revised to reflect the move from a situation of large budget deficits to one of huge surpluses (at least in the near term future). Longer-term budget trends are also considered.
- The ordering of chapters has also been changed. The international section (now Part III) has been moved forward to directly follow the main section on macroeconomic models (Part II). The policy section (Part IV) comes next, followed by extensions (Part V).
- In order to cover new material without increasing the length of the book, coverage of topics that have become less relevant has been cut back. I have attempted to make the analysis as simple and concise as possible.
Overall, there has been an attempt to make the book more student friendly.ANCILLARIES
- Instructor's Manual with Test Bank: This resource manual provides the instructor with detailed chapter summaries, answers to end-of-chapter questions, and a complete test bank. For each chapter, there are 50 to 70 multiple-choice questions as well as 10 to 15 problems and essay questions.
- Computerized Test Bank: Prentice Hall's Custom Test, a Windows-based test program, permits professors to edit and add or delete questions from the test bank to generate their own customized classroom tests.
- Study Guide: Each chapter contains a detailed overview with a tips section on equations and graphs called Techniques in Depth. The Study Guide also provides a self-test with 30 multiple-choice questions and 10 problems and essay questions.
Reviewers recruited by Prentice Hall to help with the preparation of this edition provided many useful suggestions. These reviewers are: Peter Hess, Davidson College; Sharon Erenburg, East Michigan University; Bryce Sutton, St. Louis University; and Darryl Getter, U.S. Naval Academy.
Many people have been helpful in preparing the various editions of this book. I have benefited from comments by Roger Waud, Art Benavie, Alfred Field, and Pat Conway, all from the University of North Carolina, as well as by Lawrence Davidson and Williard Witte, Indiana University; Dennis Appleyard, Davidson College; Alfred Guender, University of Canterbury; Homer Erekson, Miami University; Allin Cottrell, Wake Forest University; David Van Hoose, University of Alabama; Michael Bradley, George Washington University; Rexford Santerre and Michael Tucci, Bentley College; Art Goldsmith, Washington and Lee University; Thomas Havrilesky, Duke University; Sang Sub Lee, District of Columbia Government; David Bowles, Clemson University; Michael Loy and Lawrence Ellis, Appalachian State University; and Richard Selden, University of Virginia.
Editors have been helpful at all stages and I wish to thank Rod Banister, Gladys Soto and Maureen Wilson at Prentice Hall and Lynn Steines at Carlisle Publishing Services.

N.B. gov't supports Opposition bill to release member expenses
Exterior view of the New Brunswick legislature in Fredericton on Saturday, June 7, 2003. (CP / Andrew Vaughan)
The Canadian Press
Published Wednesday, March 19, 2014 1:35PM EDT
FREDERICTON -- New Brunswick's deputy premier says the Tory government supports a Liberal Opposition bill to publicly release all member expenses as long as some amendments are made.
Paul Robichaud says some of the wording in Bill 14 would have to be changed, but otherwise the government supports the legislation.
Liberal Leader Brian Gallant says he is open to any changes suggested by the government as long as it leads to the release of all member expenses.
The bill, which was introduced in November, has received second reading and must still be debated.
The Liberals asked the government about the bill's status today, a day after the province's legislative administration committee agreed to review all constituency allowance expense claims filed by Tory member Greg Davis since he was elected.
The committee says the review's findings will be made public after it meets Tuesday.

Re: 3 collection
s removed why hasnt score gone up
Was this your only 3 collections? Have you verified that they came off of your report? What other baddies do you have? How old were these collections?
In some cases if you have a lot of collections removing 3 won't cause a score change. Also if you newer collections and removed 3 old ones it could cause the score to stay the same.
Starting Score: EQ 549 (5/2012) | TU 594 (7/2012)

Product Description
The Thermos brand is well known as the quality and performance leader in insulated food and beverage products. The Stainless King series creates a new chapter in Thermos' storied history with a modern line that blends out newest technology with a dash of the past.
Why Thermos?
An ideal choice for people on the go, the Stainless King Vacuum Insulated Food Jar is built to last and loaded with features to make for a more enjoyable eating experience. Thermos vacuum insulation technology virtually eliminates temperature change within the food container by creating an airless space between two stainless steel walls. The result is an insulation layer that performs better than any other. A superior insulated container you can depend on to keep your food hotter, colder, fresher, longer.This food jar keeps items hot for 7 hours or cold for 9, making it a great choice for long days where mealtimes might be a little irregular.
Features and Benefits
Constructed with double wall stainless steel, this 16 ounce food jar is virtually unbreakable, yet its sleek design is both eye-catching and functional. The contoured body shape is easy to grip and the wide mouth opening is easy to fill, eat from and clean.
The lid serves a dual purpose by also functioning as a serving bowl. As a bonus feature, this food jar also comes equipped with a full-size folding stainless steel spoon that fits right into the lid so you won't need to worry about packing separate utensils.
Leak-Proof and Worry-Free
The Stainless King Food Jar features premium, double wall vacuum insulation so the stainless steel body stays cool to the touch with hot items and condensation-free with cold items. Only the best materials are used to construct this food jar and are 100% BPA free.
Recommended Tip for Maximum Enjoyment
In order to maximize the incredible insulation technology, it is recommended to either pre-chill or pre-heat the food jar just prior to use. This can be accomplished by filling the food jar with cold or hot tap water, attaching the lid and letting it rest for a few minutes.
Before you are ready to use, simply empty the water and fill with your favorite food item. Attaching the lid will further increase the thermal efficiency.

Customer Reviews
Top Customer Reviews
I was sick of microwaving my food everyday, and following a suggestion from a colleague, I decided to start using a stainless steel thermos to keep my food hot!
Oh my goodness, you will NOT go wrong with this item! I put soup in it at 7am in the morning, and it's still piping hot at 1pm when I eat lunch!! It will hold an entire can of Chunky or Progresso soup, which are normally two servings per can, so you have more than enough to eat!
It's a bit pricey, but trust me, it is so well worth it! I use this everyday!
I just ordered two more---one for a Christmas gift,and the other to put my oatmeal or grits in, when I'm rushing in the mornings and don't have time to eat breakfast at home.
Oh yes!! There's a tip that's included with the thermos: If you're putting hot foods in it, then put some hot water in the thermos for about 5 minutes before adding the hot food. It extends the time that your food will maintain it's heat.
It's not necessary as I've used it without putting hot water in it prior to adding my food, and my food remained just as hot.
I've actually placed this container in my Built NY lunch bag with ice packs to keep my other foods like yogurt and fruit cool, and it still didn't affect the heat within the thermos.
Also, there is a cute little spoon that extends to full sized enclosed in the lid. Very handy!
You won't go wrong with this one! :)
* Compact size;
* Folding spoon;
* Easy to clean -- low profile;
* Great price;
* Clip for spoon;
* Tight lid ---- kept temperature for 7 hours --- I burned my tongue.
* Cup is a little small;
* Only comes in one color, like the model T ("They can buy any color they like, as long as it's black."(Henry Ford)).
I am thoroughly happy with the product after using it for 2 months.
If this review was helpful, please add your vote.
Except this, it is a grand new nice thermo container! I have to keep it since I really don't have time to do return & refund .
It was perfect...for a single use. He heated soup, put it in around 7am, had it for lunch and put the container back in his lunch bag to be washed at home. When he took it back out of his bag, the metal top had come apart from the plastic "bowl" part inside of it. It's just glue holding them together but you would think they would be using a glue that could withstand temperature changes given the way the product is advertised.
Aside from this, it kept the soup scalding hot (he said it was even hotter than when he put it in), was convenient and he had no issues eating it from the container with the spoon provided.
He is going to try to re-glue them and keep using it but I am extremely disappointed in this quality. If such a thing had happened after a few weeks or months, I would chalk it up to husband wear and tear. Obviously this was not the case. I expected more from such a popular item from such a company...

Post-war period (1945–62)
Internal self-government (1955–62)
Merger with Malaysia (1962–65)
Republic of Singapore (1965–present)
The Hock Lee bus workers' strikes began on April 23, 1955. The incident was a result of failed negotiations between the Hock Lee Amalgamated Bus Company and its bus workers. The workers wanted better working conditions while the employers wanted to protect their business interests. The strikes eventually escalated and resulted in a clash among the Singapore Bus Singapore Bus Workers Union, Hock Lee Employee's Union, the Singapore Chinese Middle Schools Student Union and law enforcement on May 12, 1955. The event has been commonly understood as a violent confrontation between colonialists and communists. The event was however also born out of the conditions of colonial society as well as being part of a necessary modernisation trajectory that Singapore was embarking on.
The oppression from the Japanese occupation carried forward into post-war Singapore when the British resumed their rule on the island. Decolonisation was underway for many of the European colonies in Southeast Asia, including Burma (1948), Vietnam (1945), Cambodia (1953), Laos (1953), Philippines (1946) and Indonesia (1949). By 1948, Malaya and Singapore were the last foothold the British had in Southeast Asia. The global trend of decolonisation, led the way for the liberalisation of Singaporean politics. The 1948 constitution that reformed the political and judicial systems in Singapore paved the way for Singapore's first elections in 1948.[1] This partial liberalisation was impeded as the British saw their strategic interests in Southeast Asia being challenged by peasant uprisings especially in Malaya.[2] The British then used terrorism of the 'communists' to spark panic and fear in the masses and enacted emergency regulations in 1948, that saw an increased restriction on civil society meetings in Singapore.[3] A turning point came as the Rendel Constitution was accepted by the British government and resulted in elections that brought David Marshall and the Labour Front party into power. This new constitution led to the provisional easing of restrictions under Emergency regulations, which in its turn sparked off much interest in politics among the people living in Singapore.[4] This renewed liberalisation led to the establishment of many trade unions during this period which would have alarmed many employers that were worried about their business interests.[5] Oppressive colonial educational and labour policies discriminated against Chinese students and workers.[6] This led to much unrest, including the May 13 National Service Ordinance unrests which happened in 1954. 1955, in particular was also ridden with workers' unrest with three significant strikes, the Hock Lee Bus workers' strike, the Singapore Traction Company strike and the Singapore Harbour Board strike.
Some work has been done to study the significance of certain figures that arose from United States government sources.[7] The seeds of a communist discourse was being sown by American diplomats, pressuring the British government to take subversive actions against student and labour movements in post 1954 Singapore.[8] Thus leading to the construction of events like the Hock Lee incident as a violent event instigated by communists. Ramakrishna's latest work on the communist threat in Singapore necessitates the polarisation of the scholarship on Singapore history and suggests that historians should take sides.[9] Conventional historical narratives have represented the workers and students actions as violent and conceived out of communism. The emerging work on the Hock Lee incident have foregrounded the experiences of the people through the provision of accounts that focus on the social and economic anxieties that were felt by both the students and the workers due to life in colonial society.

Bilveer Singh stated that the Hock Lee riots revealed "the ability of the communists to mobilise other elements of the [Communist United Front], such as the students."[10] Singh's reconstruction of the Hock Lee riots rely on the works of Bloodworth,[11] Drysdale,[12] and Lee.[13] His analysis agrees with the colonial perspective and concludes that the students' involvement in the Hock Lee incident was part of a larger plan of communist subversion.[14] Bloodworth starts his narrative by accusing the 'communist' students of being at the centre of the violence that occurred in the Hock Lee event.[15] He attributes the cause of the unrest to union leader, Fong Swee Suan and takes on a perspective which favours the actions of the bus company.[16] The above conventional accounts commonly attribute the student involvement to be one of communist action and again do not give the students any form of political consciousness. The students who were involved in the riots were part of the Singapore Chinese Middle School Student Union (SCMSSU). The relationship between the workers and the students is one that is often overlooked in many accounts of history and thus leading to the common conclusion that students' involvement was part of a violent extremist movement.[17] The British adopted a substitution strategy to replace Chinese schools with English institution.[18] A ten-year education plan unveiled by the colonial administration in 1949 sought to significantly decrease student enrolment in Chinese vernacular schools.[19] Chinese students were faced with the implementation of high school exams that served little purpose in ensuring the students' path into university.[20] The National Service Ordinance act also disrupted the education of Chinese students as the colonial government was unwilling to allow them to defer if they had to sit for examinations.[21] This eventually led to the May 13 incident in 1954.[22] In January 1955, the students' application to register the SCMSSU was rejected and subsequently met with many obstacles which the students felt were unreasonable demands by the colonial government to prevent the set up of the student union.[23] Newspaper reports of the government not providing help or compensation to victims of World War Two in Singapore also served as a reminder to students that they were being asked to fight for a government that does not have their interests at heart.[24] Students were seen to be the allies of the workers serving as a political force that could influence the decisions of the ruling elite.[25] Loh et al. highlighted that many of the workers were ex-students and that the Chinese school students knew that the workers who were intertwined in labour negotiations was a reflection of their future.[26] The anxieties of the students coupled with the students' sympathy to the workers resulted in their support for the Hock Lee bus workers.[27]
C.M. Turnbull saw the cause of the riots to be a battle between moderate and left-wing politics within the People's Action Party (PAP) and attributed the workers' involvement to be one of "joint direct militant campaign of obstruction and violence."[28] The book Men in White also frames the Hock Lee event as a "demonstration of the ruthlessness of the communists and their capacity to unleash violence in Singapore."[29] In both these accounts, the bus workers were not given any political consciousness as the event is seen as a spontaneous one that was initiated by the communists that eventually went out of control. Workers in the 1950s were subject to the many effects of colonial society. As previously mentioned, the Rendel Constitution paved the way for the liberalisation of Singapore politics coupled with the workers increasing anxiety about wages and working conditions as seen from an increase from 11 trade unions in 1946, to 236 unions in 1955.[30] The post-war colonial administration was seen to be corrupt and inefficient and blamed for the poor working and economic conditions that the workers were subjected to.[31] Strikes became more frequent as progression in the trade union movement was being challenged by the employers' refusal to recognise the unions and in its turn form splinter unions that would threaten the existing unionised workers.[32] The Paya Lebar Bus Company labour protest was one of 275 strikes that took place in 1955.[33] These activisms set the backdrop for the Hock Lee Bus workers' strike. There is evidence that the Hock Lee Bus workers' strikes were not fully under the direction of the Malayan Communist Party (MCP) and that the workers were so passionate about their fight against colonial oppression and exploitation that even the MCP were not able to effectively restraint the workers.[34] Therefore, the Hock Lee Bus Incident was not a moment of spontaneous communist action but was the effect of the intersections between opposing workers' and employers' sentiments towards the progressive establishment of trade unions which was one of the positive aspects of the Rendel Constitution.[35] These activisms also arose as Singapore was going through a tough economic climate with goods prices increasing by almost 19 per cent; but wages only increased by 0.8 per cent between the period of 1950 and 1955.[36] Workers like Lee Tee Tong, who were subject to poor working conditions and the harsh realities of the colonial political economy led them to be increasingly unhappy with the government.[37] This led to unrest among the workers as many were struggling to make ends meet. These strikes proved to be effective as the wages of workers increased by about 10 per cent on an hourly basis over the course of 1955-1956.[38]
Strikes started[edit]
The Hock Lee Amalgamated Bus Company was one of the eleven Chinese bus companies in Singapore that was in operation. In February, 1955, the workers started their own union and joined with the Singapore Bus Workers' Union (SBWU), the company instantly fired the organisers of the union in an attempt to dissolve the union.[39] On February 24, the company went a step further to set up a rival yellow union and hired 200 new workers in the process.[40] Feeling threatened, on April 22, 1955, the bus workers' union put up a notice to strike.[41] The company proceeded to unemploy more than 200 workers who were related to the SBWU on April 24, 1955.[42] This angered the workers further which prompted them to set up human blockades at the bus depot, stopping the buses from leaving.[43] This injustice was not only felt by the workers but also by Chief Minister David Marshall who tried to plead their case with the company's management, but his efforts were futile.[44] As the anniverssary of the May 13 National Service Incident was approaching, the workers, many of whom were ex-Chinese school students would have also been reminded of what happened the year before. On May 12, 1955, multilateral talks to mediate the workers' disputes were hampered as police clashed with strikers which resulted in the death of four people and thirty-one people injured. [45]
On 12 May 1955, later known as, a major riot involving an estimated 2,000 people broke out in the streets of Alexandra Road and Tiong Bahru.[46] The police tried to break up the 2,000 students and strikers using tear gas.[47] Four people died as a result, including Andrew Teo, a Constable with the Volunteer Special Constabulary, who was severely beaten by a mob, another Chinese police officer who was allegedly burned to death, Gene D. Symonds, an American press correspondent, and Chong Lon Chong, a sixteen-year-old student whose death caught the most attention.[48]
A 16-year-old student, Chong Lon Chong, died from a gunshot wound. In an initial Straits Times report, the student was shot one mile away from a hospital, but was paraded around for two and half-hours by the students to further arouse the crowd's emotion without sending him for medical treatment.[49] The press, including the vernacular press and the English medium Straits Times, however later reported that it was revealed that the coroner stated in the lawyer's brief to Chong's mother that it was inconclusive as to whether the boy was dead or alive when he was shot.[50] Furthermore, it was also established after the trial that the four men who were arrested were not students.[51]
While the Hock Lee incident has conventionally been portrayed be one of communist subversion, other sources suggest that the students and workers' involvements in the Hock Lee incident were also due to anxieties felt by these two groups as a result of the conditions of colonial society. The Hock Lee bus workers' strikes can also be seen as one of the catalysts for the modernisation of the bus transportation industry in Singapore. The Hock Lee workers' strikes as well as other similar transportation workers' strikes resulted in the nationalisation of the Singapore transportation industry, specifically the Chinese owned bus companies. Shortly after the Hock Lee workers' strikes, the Singapore Traction Company strikes occurred which motivated the Hawkins Report of 1956. The Hawkins Report called for the reformation of the transportation industry in Singapore through a consolidation of the Chinese bus companies.[52] The Hawkins report advocated for a single entity to control transportation.[53] The report was an evident reaction to the operational challenges, poor administration and labour discontent that was evident in many of the bus companies.[54] In 1970, RP Wilson[55] was appointed to look into the reorganisation of public transportation in Singapore which resulted in the establishment of the government-led Singapore Transport Advisory Board in 1970, which sought to not only nationalise the bus companies but also to create a more efficient transportation system.[56] To many of the workers, these strikes helped them to gain a 'Singaporean' consciousness outside of colonialism.[57] The strikes and the workers' sentiments however were quickly put out. Part of Singapore's modernisation project was to expand its tourism sector and an efficient transportation system was important for this growth.[58] This did not leave room for any form of activism that would disrupt Singapore's necessary path towards modernity and economic development.
Media Representations[edit]
Media interest in the event has sparked off some public debate. The Singapore Broadcasting Corporation's television series, Diary of A Nation, produced in 1988 covers the Hock Lee event in episode ten of its documentary offering.[59] The Hock Lee incident has also been represented in Channel News Asia's documentary feature on violence and communism in the 1950s in Singapore, Days of Rage.[60] A reaction to the film was published in the form of a three-part critique named, "Hock Lee bus riots – fact or fiction by CNA?" by The Online Citizen.[61]
The riots were dramatised in the drama The Journey: Tumultuous Times. The student Chen Anguo in the drama represented Chong Lon Chong due to his controversial death.

Product Description
The book's success has much to do with its beautifully modelled sentences, its wry humour and its unwavering deadpan respect for its reader's intelligence . . . full of keen observation and flashes of genuine lyricism, acuity and depth. (Francine Prose)
Witty, funny, sophisticated, neatly tied up, and full of wise and illuminating insights. (P. J. Kavanagh Spectator)
De Botton is a national treasure. (Susan Hill)
I doubt if de Botton has written a dull sentence in his life. (Jan Morris New Statesman)
Single-handedly, de Botton has taken philosophy back to its simplest and most important purpose: helping us to live our lives (Independent)
It's a familiar tale but there is nothing predictable about De Botton's explanation of how love enthrals us all. This is no light romance but a sort of "When Harry Met Sally Meets Roland Barthes". . . A novel of wit and insight; whatever the state of your love life, it will make entertaining and sometimes painful, sometimes profitable reading (Time Out) --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

In her introduction to de Botton's book (Picador Classics) Sheila Heti begins, 'Essays in Love has been classified as a novel, but it's a very strange novel.' It is, she says, 'a guide through the landscape of contemporary romance.' In the book de Botton makes a habit of reflecting on a previous paragraph telling the story of (presumably his) love affair with Chloe, a woman whom he meets by chance sitting next to him on a Paris-London flight. Thus the novel-memoir seems at times to be a mere jumping of point to a profound analysis of the trite business of falling in love - and of course inevitably the disillusion inherent in that commonplace but unique event.
I must confess that I am often puzzled by the memoir genre - how much is 'true' and how much falsified for the sake of art? In books about love affairs, which this absolutely is, how constant is the point of view? How can the reader believe in the 'facts' as retailed by the narrator? Well, de Botton (who wrote this book in his early twenties) does a masterly job of analysing the ebb and flow of desire, beginning with rapture over finding that the lovers have so much in common that some supernatural agency must have pre-determined their meeting. 'I love chocolate, don't you?' asked Chloe. 'I can't understand people who don't like chocolate.' Well, the narrator, the 'I' in the story, de Botton or a version of him, hates chocolate: 'I had been more or less allergic to chocolate all my life.' So of course in the 'story' the narrator has to lie, or else run the risk of losing the 'angel' as Chloe is soon to become. This is the key to the novel, focusing on a mundane preference and lying about one's true feelings. It's what we all would do in the circumstances.Read more ›
The novel is so true to life that I found myself mirrored within the pages of the novel and I am sure I am not the only one.
This book is wonderful, truly. If you are contemplating buying one of Alain de Botton's novels, start with this one.

My not so quite satisfaction level in regards to parking at the community is partly due to the fact that there is an automobile that has been somewhat abandoned in front of Unit 1220. It has not moved in months and its tags are expired. It may not even belong to a resident here. A black Volkswagen with PA tags. This vehicle is taking up much needed space for residents. There is another resident, that when he gets in and out of his car, he has a habit of opening his door as wide as possible to get himself in and out that he causes scratches on other vehicles while doing so. We all know he is handicapped and has trouble accessing his vehicle but no one wants to park next to him because he is ruining our paint jobs, in a way he is taking up three parking spots. I know you can't do anything about him but getting that abandoned vehicle out of here would open one more spot. Overall I like this place.
Make sure to keep in touch more with residents and return calls or emails.
Residents who own dogs should be better monitored about picking up after them.
Advertise that there are 3 bedroom units.
A fenced area to allow your dog to run would be nice. It seems that most of the common area is not used for any particular use. Additionally, the tennis court seems to be a major waste of space that could be utilized in a better manner. Perhaps an outdoor cooking area where to community would have a better chance of interacting with each other would be another better use of all of this space. It also seems as though the trash units are not capable of handling the amount of waste being produced by tenants as of late, as they are often overflowing.
What is a Certified Resident?
A resident who lives at the property and has completed a resident satisfaction survey.
Advertising properties provide a list of email addresses of its residents to Kingsley Associates, a third party market research firm, who then sends out the satisfaction survey to the residents. Properties may also conduct satisfaction surveys of its residents through other third party market research firms. In those cases, we will publish those survey responses as long as the questions conform to our standard survey format.
Because reviews are from Certified Residents, and are managed by a third party, you can feel confident that the feedback provided is accurate and trustworthy.
