Offensive Notes Preseason Game 3 Ravens @ Washington
Posted by Ken McKusick | Aug 29, 2021 | Featured, The Articles | 0 |
How do the Ravens Replace JK Dobbins?
The injury to Dobbins overshadowed a record-setting win. The Ravens now need to deal with the aftermath.
Here is what I expect the Ravens to do:
The coaches will decide what components of the offense required Dobbins as opposed to another back
In terms of which backs are ideal to sign, they will want:
Complementary skills to their top 2 backs
Fit to scheme (speed, pass blocker/pass catcher, ability to cut, special teams ability, etc)
Limited treadwear so they are not buying into production decline
Future value (ideally the back obtained will not be simply a 1-year solution, but a 1st-contract player)
In short, although this is a 1-year problem, the Ravens will address it with a multi-year solution.
OL Usage by Series
The most significant indication of roster decisions during the preseason is the order of entry.
Here are the offensive linemen by series, something that often tells a story about the team's plans:
Drive Plays Net Yards Result Q Beg Time LT LG C RG RT
1 11 65 FG Miss 1 13:33 Stanley Powers Bozeman Zeitler Villanueva
2 9 89 TD 1 5:46 Schofield Powers Colon Mekari Phillips
3 9 60 FG 1 0:03 Mekari Phillips Colon Bredeson Schofield
4 7 57 TD 2 9:58 Mekari Phillips Colon Bredeson Schofield
5 6 55 TD 2 4:28 Schofield Powers Colon Bredeson Phillips
6 10 75 TD 3 15:00 Schofield Cleveland Colon Bredeson Sarell
7 10 72 TD 3 7:59 Schofield Cleveland Colon Bredeson Sarell
8 3 3 Punt 3 3:03 Schofield Cleveland Bredeson Sarell Ealy
9 6 11 Punt 4 13:29 Schofield Cleveland Bredeson Sarell Ealy
10 12 29 EoG 4 8:18 Schofield Cleveland Bredeson Sarell Ealy
Notes on the OL rotation:
The Ravens had what appears to be their week-1 starters together for the first series with Lamar Jackson and drove the ball 65 yards on 11 plays.
Stanley had nice push on LB Mayo in L2 (Q1, 11:06). It was good to see him get into space to make a block in his brief trial.
Bozeman had 4 blocks that made my notes (all positive) in just 1 series (Q1, 13:33; Q1, 12:54; Q1, 11:06; Q1, 10:17). He's ready to go and if the physicality and movement from this game is a good indicator, he'll be effective at center.
Kevin Zeitler had 2 weak pass blocks among 6 opportunities. He was bulled by DT Tim Settle for the initial pressure on what would become Rotimi's strip sack. I am convinced this offensive scheme is both easier for him than any in which he's previously played and a good fit for his skillset. If he can play the full year, he's a good bet for a Pro Bowl.
Villanueva didn't make my notes and retired after 1 series.
Powers sealed DT Settle on Edwards' RR21 (Q2, 10:17). He connected on a pull vs DB Jeremy Reaves as Williams found the edge for RR22 (Q1, 3:53). This was a 2nd consecutive physical effort from Powers. I dislike the notion that he fell face first into this job. While it's true Phillips has not played well enough to beat him out and Cleveland has missed a lot of camp and preseason, Powers has had consecutive exceptional games at LG after a poor opener where a lot of his difficulties were at RT. He'll be fine to start the season and the Ravens have a good backup ready to go.
Phillips was bulled for pressure by Wise (Q1, 4:28) and again by DT Bada (Q2, 13:11). He missed his pull on CB Roberts which was part of a Keystone Cops play which resulted in McCrary's RR-4. The Ravens may decide to have Phillips practice at RT from here on with Cleveland apparently healthy.
Cleveland got his first extended playing time and was excellent (see scoring below). Guards often end up patrolling a gap without an assignment on pass plays, particularly vs a 4-man rush. That seems even more pronounced with Cleveland, who no one seems to want to engage as a pass blocker. I don't believe teams will be able to control rush lanes during the season if they take this tack, because Cleveland throws some devastating help blocks for either the C or LT and has lots of experience from Georgia processing such situations. The possibility of gaping holes in pass rush lanes may either dictate defenses use a spy or create more scramble opportunities for Jackson..
Mekari played the 2nd series at RG and then 2 more at LT. It's been a difficult preseason for Patrick. He's played mostly LT and has not been effective there. Given the relative quality of Schofield's play and the depth at G, the Ravens may decide they only need to keep 1 of Colon and Mekari.
Colon had an extended trial at C, looked solid, and on-target with his snaps. I think he may be first up at C if something happens to Bozeman.
Bredeson played 5 series at RG and the last 3 at C, a good omen for his future with the Ravens. He's a 2nd-year player in competition with Mekari (year 3) and Colon (year 2) for 1 or 2 roster spots. I have him for 1 negative and 3 positive run notes, but nothing as a pass blocker (no news is good news).
Schofield entered on the 2nd drive and played 68 scored snaps (see scoring below), including 2 series at RT and the rest at LT. The sort of pressures he allowed in this game are ones often given up by Stanley where he gives ground to continue to mirror the pass rusher. That often results in a late pressure and one Jackson can escape with his legs. It's a much more serious error to let the QB get hit to disrupt the throw as he did once. Despite a modest grade, I think he remains the Ravens best choice as the backup LT. As a veteran, he can be released on Wednesday and resigned the next day once the IR shuffle is complete.
Adrian Ealy played the final 3 series. I scored his 18 snaps (see below), even though that does not meet my normal 20-snap minimum for a grade. He's a developmental player who might be worth stashing on IR for the entire season. If the Ravens try to put him on the practice squad he might not draw a waiver claim, but as OT depth erodes during the season, he'd be a player that other teams target.
Sarell played the second half at RT and RG. He's a candidate for the practice squad.
Mancz was traded this week. That was a nice dividend from having the OL back to full health.
After a week of responsibilities focus with just 1 OL position per player, the Ravens returned to having players audition at multiple spots. In total, 5 linemen saw work at more than 1 position.
Individual Grades and Notes
As in past years, I have given each Ravens player a grade from +3 to -3 reflecting how much my expectation of their impact on this year's team changed based on their performance (game grade before the front slash, cumulative grade after). I don't rate starters, players who have no place on the team, or anyone for whom I don't think I have any data for a judgment. The players here are new to the team, rookies, on the cusp of making the team, have new responsibilities this season, in positional battles, or have otherwise have something to prove.
Bateman (0/0): DNP. I presume he'll make the cut then be placed on IR after 24 hours, which essentially provides the Ravens with an extra player on the roster with the 3-week IR rules again this season.
Boykin (0/0): DNP. I still expect him to make the roster and possibly start the season on IR. Incredibly, the Ravens top 3 X receivers are hurt.
Bozeman (0/0): See notes above. As the starting center, he did not require expectation grades this preseason. He looks the part and has been on target with his snaps for the most part in camp and preseason games.
Bredeson (0/0): See notes above.
Cain (-1/-1): He returned and was open for some big plays, but ended up catching just 1 of 5 balls for 5 yards. He may land on the practice squad.
Cleveland (+2/+1): He saw his first action and did not disappoint. He did not allow a pass rush event or otherwise log a negative play. He missed 4 blocks, 3 of which were losses at the LoS. He made 7 blocks in level 2, delivered 1 pancake, and connected on 2 of 3 pulls. He had 5 highlights, including 3 on the final drive (Q4, 8:18; Q4, 4:05; Q4, 2:33) for which context is a legitimate question. However, we may have been treated to a preview of the manner in which tired defenders will get bullied by him.
Scoring: 38 plays, 34 blocks, 4 missed, 30 points (.90 per play). That's an A with adjustment.
Colon (0/+1): See notes above.
Ealy (0/+1): He played the last 3 drives, beginning late in the 3rd quarter. He was bulled by DE Rotimi for a pressure shared with Sarell (Q4, 4:49). Of his 4 misses, 3 were losses at the LoS. He made 1 block in level 2, delivered 1 pancake, and was not asked to pull. He had 3 highlights, including 2 on the final drive (Q3, 2:24; Q4, 8:18; Q4, 7:35).
Scoring: 18 plays, 13 blocks, 4 missed, ½ pressure, 12 points (.67 per play). That's below the 20-snap minimum I use for grading, but would have fallen on the C-/D+ border.
Gray (0/0): He caught a 16-yard pass among 19 snaps and 3 targets.
Hill (0/-3): DNP. He may have gained ground with Dobbins' injury, but it also seems as if the Ravens will be looking outside for more RBs. He remains a valuable special teams player and could still make the team.
Huntley (+3/+6): Not everything is perfect about his ball placement, but we saw perhaps the greatest preseason game ever by a Ravens QB. He did not commit a costly error, protected the football as a runner, looked good with what was outstanding time to throw, and completed some nice balls while under pressure.
Mariner (0/0): He played 8 snaps, fewest in a thin WR corps.
Mason (0/+1): He played 35 snaps and had 5 carries, including 3 first downs. I recorded him twice for positive blocking notes as well. He's an odd combination of a player for whom the Ravens:
See specific value in their offense
Want insurance value in 2021
Want the future upside
May still not have a roster spot
Due to the low number of fullbacks around the NFL and further migration from 21 to 12 personnel, there also aren't many other teams who are likely to want him. If he could be retained on the practice squad, he provides the Ravens an extra component of roster flexibility that could be valuable.
McCrary (+1/+1): He was injured and appeared to ask out of the game a little later, but was told to stay in. His running stats were depressed by being the ballcarrier when everyone knew the Ravens were going to run. I like his bounce and he's had several runs where he showed the ability to change direction as a play breaks down. He will probably land on the practice squad.
McSorley (0/-2): DNP. He is reportedly practicing again Monday and should have a spot on the practice squad.
Mekari (0/-1): See notes above. With the entire line healthy, I'm less sure he has a roster spot sealed than before. His value as a backup G/C is limited by the fact the Ravens have 2 younger players (Bredeson, Colon) who play the same positions.
Moore, Jaylon (0/0): He played 23 snaps and was not targeted.
Oliver (0/0): It was nice to see him have a couple of longer targets, including a 13-yard reception (Q2, 2:00) and a bomb between the hashes which was slightly overthrown. He's made the team, but I have yet to be particularly impressed with him as a receiver. We'll see how he meshes with Jackson on play action come week 1.
Phillips (0/-2): See notes above. He's gone from being a competitor for the LG starting spot to a backup RT. Since it seems he's 3rd on the LG depth chart and no better than 2nd at RG, it's unlikely he'll see time at guard in 2021. With the team thin at tackle, the Ravens may have him practice there until he is needed.
Poljan (0/0): He entered for the last 3 series and played 14 snaps without a target. He made my notes just once when pancaked by LB Jordan Kunaszyk (Q4, 8:18). He's raw, but could be a useful player for the practice squad.
Powers (+2/+3): See notes above. Between Powers and Cleveland, the Ravens have 2 good options at LG.
Proche (+2/+2): This was the game we've been waiting for to corroborate Proche's practice results with live-fire success. His highlights warrant individual review:
(Q1, 2:31): He collected the deflection by DT Gabe Wright for PM7
(Q2, 13:11): He reached back to grab Huntley's pass and still managed 6 YAC on PM17 (11 + 6) [2]
(Q2, 8:01): He blocked CB Jimmy Moreland in L2 to help lead Williams RL12
(Q3, 10:00): On 3rd/4, he snatched PL20 TD with CB Roberts' arm between his hands, maintained control of the football to the ground, and lost his helmet
Taking the ball away from CB Roberts reminded me of Anquan Boldin's vice-like grip on the football on 3rd and 1 in Super Bowl XLVII. It's amazing he did not erupt for a taunting foul after losing his helmet.
Sarell (0/0): See notes above.
Schofield (-1/+2): He struggled with the bull rush from DEs Bunmi Rotimi and Shaka Toney. Michael surrendered a total of 7 full pressures as I scored it (Q2, 9:19; Q2, 8:41; Q2, 1:23; Q3, 12:27; Q3, 10:00; Q4, 11:46; Q4, 11:03). This differs from other published sources because I use a 3-second standard (PFF uses 2.5). The only really bad pass rush event he surrendered disrupted Huntley's throw into a lazy popup (Q4, 11:03). Of 3 missed blocks, 2 were losses at the LoS and a 3rd was L2NB. In stark contrast to the Panthers game, he made 11 blocks in level 2 and delivered 1 pancake. His highlight was a combination block to tee up DT David Bada for Cleveland followed by a L2 block on CB Cole Luke (Q3, 13:07).
Scoring: 68 plays, 58 blocks, 3 missed, 7 pressure, 44 points (.65 per play). That's a D+ after adjustment. It wasn't a game Schofield will want to show his grandkids, but as mentioned above the pressures he allowed were low risk for a mobile QB.
Tomlinson (+1/+2): For the second straight game he showed his chops as a receiver, including the 8-yard TD on an extended play from Huntley (Q2, 7:19). It's good to see any receiver find space for a QB under pressure, but it's especially nice to see it happen with Tomlinson who has so infrequently been targeted. I have 1 positive and 1 negative note for him as a run blocker.
Verity (-2/-1): The misses effectively eliminate any chance Verity will be traded for a draft pick. There is still a hance he catches on somewhere.
Victor (+2/+2): He caught all 5 balls thrown his way and in so doing touched a lot of bases as a receiver. Let's review:
(Q1, 4:28): He caught a three-yard pass between the right hash and numbers and took it for 27 YAC
(Q2, 3:11): He showed spatial awareness to collect PM6 (4 + 2) [4] to convert 3rd/4
(Q2, 1:23): He high-pointed PL25 TD [1] contested by S Troy Apke and maintained possession to the ground
(Q3, 6:24): He high-pointed PL11 (11 + 0) [1] and neatly tapped his toes inbounds
(Q3, 4:37): On 3rd/10, he caught PM13 (13 + 0) [2] and absorbed a helmet hit from DB Jeremy Reaves (unflagged)
If one had to create a set of WR drills for a workout, you'd want to include some form of each of these (excluding the helmet-to-helmet hit).
Wallace (+1/+2): He caught all 3 passes thrown his way and played 57 snaps, most of any Ravens WR. Roman got him out of his comfort zone to make 2 receptions in the middle of the field in a 4-play sequence (beginning Q3, 7:20). All 4 of his targets vs the Panthers and most of his college receptions were outside the right hash. The touchdown (Q3, 4:19) was making space on a rollout which should serve him well as a red-zone target for Lamar Jackson.
Williams, Ty'Son (+2/+4): Williams had made the team prior to this game, but now figures to be active every week and have a significant workload. Against Washington, he ran the ball effectively (4 for 42) and made 3 big blocks:
(Q1, 4:28): He maintained a block on LB David Mayo to help Victor pick up 27 YAC
(Q1, 1:17): He made the key block on LB Khaleke Hudson to lead Huntley's RR10 TD
(Q2, 7:19): He delivered an ideal cut block to create ATS on what would eventually become the 8-yard TD pass to Tomlinson
In a college career spanning 5 years and 3 schools he had 29 receptions for 231 yards. This preseason he caught all 8 targets, but for just 37 yards (4.6 YPT).
Offensive MVPs:
Tyler Huntley
Binjimen Victor
Ty'Son Williams
Honorable mention to James Proche, Ben Cleveland, and Ben Powers.

A bunch of wedding caterers lead by Santhanam run from trouble and land in Trichy – only to find more trouble. In Trichy, the problems are bigger than before and running away is not an option. When Vishal realises it, he uses force to handle the situation. What follows is an action scene right at the end of first half. This is followed by the revelation of Vishal's bitter past that has its share of some melodrama.


Though it will surely date me, the fist thought that popped into my head upon seeing this Wrist Watch as Neck Choker Display was Zippy the Pinhead from my counter-culture youth. But if Cadillac used Led Zeppelin soundtracks to sell luxury automobiles to my generation (I drive Mercedes Benz, though I would consider Cadillac for the sake of Led Zeppelin, see 2 commercials here), maybe it could be done with Zippy the Pinhead for luxury watches? But pinheads aside, I actually liked this display and thought it interesting. Please leave a comment of your own, pin-headed or not. See the thumbnail for an alternate view.

fun concept. it think you could make something out of this. I think should keep up going.
Cool concept! It was fun. I like that I had infinite lives because I died several times in a row.
Nice concept, core mechanic is an interesting twist on the typical platformer. I felt the music didn't fit very well but I was having so much fun with it that I had to go back and start the game up again before rating because I didn't even notice the music the first time lol. Extremely enjoyable over all though. great job!
Once I got the hang of it, it was really fun, I was kind of sad that it ended so quick, but I still enjoyed this one. Would definitely love to see an expansion of this game!
I really like the central mechanic. I think the clouds should spawn a little further forward relative to the player, but that might just be personal preference. I agree that it's too short, but at least I got to save the world!
Really nice game! Fun to play. Wish to see some Doodle Jump like levels with this mechanic!
I also couldn't play the web version. I downloaded the Windows version and absolutely loved the gameplay. I think it's a great core mechanic, one of the best of any of the submissions. But the game is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too short! And I don't mean I would've liked it to be longer because I loved it so much, even though that is true. I mean it feels like you didn't really explore the possibilities with this concept at all. I finished this game quicker than I quit some games that I don't find interesting. It's a shame really. And although the aesthetic really fits here, there wasn't anything technologically or artistically advanced that should have taken up so much time as to prevent further level design. I believe all the backgrounds were just static black. And the game doesn't even support different resolutions or window sizes. Considering all these constraints, the game should've had at least 10 levels. I think in the end, it had 3 tiny ones.
Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, I wanted to do more, but I had to take it easy because of a cold.
web version appears to be broken. can't play windows version as I don't have any windows PCs - all Linux here.
Thanks for commenting, I'll do my best to get it fixed!

More than eight years after the start of the Great Recession our labor market is far from recovering by most measures. At 5 percent the current unemployment rate is not very different from its pre-recession level, but the main reason it is so low is that millions of people have given up looking for work and dropped out of the labor force. These people are no longer counted as being unemployed.
And contrary to what is often claimed, this is not a story of retiring baby boomers. The percentage of the prime age population (people between the ages of 25-54) that is working is down by two full percentage points from its pre-recession level. This translates into 2.5 million people who have given up looking for work at an age where they should be at the peak of their working career. That looks like pretty solid evidence of a weak labor market.
There are two ways to deal with a situation in which the number of people who want to work exceeds the number of jobs. The first is to increase demand in the economy, thereby increasing the demand for workers. We could in principle do this with increased government spending, but people don't like budget deficits.
Reducing the size of the trade deficit would also increase demand, but this requires that our politicians make trade deficits a priority, which is not likely.
Some politicians claim that they have a magic formula that will cause companies to go on an investment spree. Unfortunately, the magic seems to work only in the elections, never once they are in office.
If we can't increase the demand for labor, we could go the other route and share the amount of work available more evenly. This can be done through a variety of mechanisms, such as shorter workweeks, mandated vacations, paid sick days, and paid family leave. The idea is that we would get most workers to put in less time on the job, thereby creating demand for more workers.
That shouldn't sound like a strange concept. It was exactly this sort of thinking that got us the 40-hour workweek back in 1938. Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act, which required employers to pay time and half if they required workers to put in more than a 40-hour week.
There were people at the time who pronounced the law a disaster and job killer, but the facts disagreed. The economy was lifted out of the Great Depression by the spending associated with World War II. We then had the three most prosperous decades in the country's history as we saw strong wage and productivity growth accompanied by low unemployment.
The Fair Labor Standards Act was part of a steady progression toward shortening work time as the country got wealthier. Unfortunately, it was also pretty much the end of this progression. Since expensive non-wage benefits like health care insurance and pensions were largely provided as fixed cost per worker, employers decided they would rather require more hours per worker than hire more workers. As a result, the 40-hour work week was largely frozen in place.
This makes the United States an outlier internationally. Workers in other wealthy countries put in many fewer hours on average than do workers in the United States. To take one prominent example, according to data from the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the average number of hours worked in Germany is almost 25 percent less than the average for the United States. This has helped push Germany's unemployment rate down to 4 percent. And, unlike the United States, the share of the population in Germany with jobs is far above its pre-recession level.
We cannot of course make our economy a carbon copy of Germany, but we can pass laws requiring paid time off for family leave and sick days, as many states and cities have already done. In Germany, workers are guaranteed six weeks a year of paid vacation. We can start at two or three. And, we can restructure our unemployment insurance system to encourage firms to reduce hours with work sharing rather than layoff workers.
Technology is supposed to be about making our lives better. An important way in which it does this is by reducing the number of hours that we have to spend working so that we can have more time to be with our family or enjoy other pursuits. There is a great fear across the country that robots will take our jobs. If we correctly structure the economy, robots will give us more free time, and that will be good.

Understanding RTP in Online Slots
Category:	Casinos in Atlantic City
You've tried your luck in slots for months now, and every time, you only get too close to winning: one moment you believe that the stars have finally aligned in your favor and the next second, you lose it all or win an insignificant amount. Sounds familiar? Well, the deal with slots, in general, the looser the game, the better. And when it comes to choosing the best casino to play slots in Atlantic City, then there is only one mathematical and statistical element you need to know about: the return to player rate (RTP).
RTP refers to casinos' expression of a player's odds of winning. It is the percentage of money that you bet on a game which will be ultimately paid back to players. What this means is that if the slots game you are playing has a 92 percent RTP, then it means that for every $100 that you bet on, you should expect to win back $90. While smiling about this possibility, you should remember that the RTP and the house advantage are both calculated to indicate the overall and long-term performance of the game meaning that you might have to spend more than $100 get back that $92.
When playing slots in Atlantic City, note that nothing is ever guaranteed, especially in the short-term and the likelihood of you seeing that slot's actual RTP might not come because you could have run out of play money.
Using RTP to your advantage
Despite the inevitable losses, RTP remains a significant factor that determines the best casino in Atlantic City. The best payout slots in Atlantic City was recorded at 92.1 percent RTP by the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement after a thorough review of the casino industry in seven leading online casinos in the state. It would appear that the best slots in Atlantic City have an RTP of over 88 percent for one and two-cent machines with the loosest slots recording an average of 95.2 percent RTP for the 5-cent slot machines.
Keep in mind that the looser the slots, the better. Also, don't forget that even with all the statistics to watch, the best thing you could do while playing is to manage your bankroll and have fun.

The Neverending Quest to Reboot The Crow Somehow Still Continues
After spending nearly 10 years in the TBD pile at Relativity Studios, the reboot of The Crow has been picked up by Sony Pictures. Does that mean we'll ever see the damn thing get made? It certainly elevates the chances, at least a little bit.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the reboot, titled The Crow Reborn, would be "a more faithful adaptation of the indie comic created by James O'Barr that was first published in 1989." James O'Barr's comic is about a man who comes back to life hellbent on revenge after he and his fiancée are horrifically murdered by random thugs. Alex Proyas' stylish and grim big-screen adaptation came out in 1994, and gained eerie notoriety well before its release when star Brandon Lee, the 28-year-old son of Bruce Lee, died after he was accidentally shot on-set.
The Crow Reborn's shift to Sony comes after financial troubles at Relativity, where the project was most recently slated to star Jason Momoa (Aquaman), who stepped in after Luke Evans dropped out, who replaced Danny Huston. And so on. It was to have been directed by Corin Hardy (whose next film is the upcoming Conjuring spin-off The Nun). However, THR notes that the studio change will likely mean a whole new team will come aboard—so you can look forward to reading a while new crop of updates while wondering, once again, why this reboot needs to even happen in the first place.

Though the creatures feature prominently in primitive tauren mythological cycles, the existence of this talon suggests the creatures truly existed at some point.

Q: BottomNavigationView with fragments in MVVM way We have bottom navigation tabs(4) and each tab is having fragment in it. Could anyone help(give idea) how to design the structure in MVVM way with keeping the fragment state for each tab. I know that this is not the place for poor questions but I am looking for conceptual advice. To accomplish it in a best possible way.

A: With the latest arch components life become so much easer.
Now I don't have to care about keeping my fragments alive as long as I implement business logic (state) inside ViewModel i am fine. It survives the config changes.
If you ask me how about when system kills your app in order to claim the memory,
with latest ViewModel feature you can manage this inside you ViewModel. So you can eliminate extra boilerplate code/communication code between View and ViewModel to pass savedState (e.g id, url, etc..). This would be true separation of concern.

A:
Google (through Nick Butcher) announced the release of the v25 of the Android Design Support Library which includes the new BottomNavigationView.

For my money, Darwin is one of the most important thinkers the human species has ever produced.
You probably wouldn't hate me.
I am thinking that Twenty-first century evolutionary science, if Darwin could return to see it, would enthrall, excite, and amaze him.
However, he would recognize it as his own. We are just coloring in the details.
Darwin raises our consciousness to the sinewy power of science to explain the large and complex in terms of the small and simple. In biology we were fooled for centuries into thinking that extravagant complexity in nature needs an extravagantly complex explanation. Darwin triumphantly dispelled that illusion.
There remain big questions, in physics and cosmology, that await their own Darwins.
Why are the laws of physics the way they are?
Why are there laws at all?
Why is there a universe at all?
Once again, the lure of "design" is tempting, but we have the cautionary tale of Darwin before us.
We've been through all that before. Darwin raised our consciousness, and we are emboldened to seek true explanations of genuine power.
Why a door handle? It's Monday. I always keep my promises.
1/ Just for fun, see my dissertation on "Social Darwinism". But, my thoughts on Darwin's Natural Selection are proliferated throughout this Blog history.
2/ Don't get to worked up around Faith and the Christ elements. They are tied to – and, transcend an idea. There is more to it than that. Also, Faith is likely a state of being.
An interesting – albeit unrelated – aside that struck me while reading this: Charles' son was named George Darwin, and he followed his father's footsteps into the realm of science. But, when your father revolutionizes science and a initiates a paradigm shift, you're almost always guaranteed to be the intellectual runt of the litter. This held true for George. His two Big Ideas to rival his dads place in history: 1) That the moon was formed when lava was pulled free from the earth by solar tides; and, 2) That a pear shaped rotating fluid body shows stability in space. Alas, both are incorrect.
Additionally, Charles' granddaughter, Frances Cornford, wrote poems. I remembered having read it, but it wasn't poignant enough to elicit immediate memorization. So, I've just gone and Googled it. Called "To a Fat Lady Seen From the Train", it goes like this: "O fat white woman whom nobody loves / Why do you walk through the fields in gloves", and so on.
Coming from humble means, I have to wonder: Is greatness inherited? Or attainable by all? I suppose we can all be successful in our own way.


When I was a child, every Veterans Day meant that I would be attending the Veterans Day Parade. My grandmother would drive us to downtown Phoenix, early so that we could find just the perfect spot to view the parade. My grandfather would sit proudly in his wheelchair, wearing his VFW hat. My sister and I would sit on the curb or on Grandpa's lap and watch as marching bands, colorful floats honoring the veterans, and groups representing various veterans organizations made their way along the parade route.
Pray for veterans and their families, especially those who have died or are wounded. Pray for those on active duty defending our freedom.
Make cards or write notes and deliver them to veterans hospitals or veterans groups in the community.
Adopt a veteran in your neighborhood, especially if there is someone without family nearby. Invite your adopted family member to Thanksgiving dinner.
Create an online memorial for a veteran–a family member or friend. There are many websites available that will host your memorial. Here are a few: forevermissed.com, remembered.com, Last-Memories.com.
Display the American flag on Veterans Day. With your children read the rules for displaying a flag. Make sure that you follow the rules carefully to show proper respect.
Donate to a veterans organization such as Wounded Warrior Project, Disabled American Veterans, or Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW). Have all family members contribute by doing extra chores or doing without something.
Play patriotic music or sing patriotic songs. Challenge your children to learn the words to our national anthem, "God Bless America," or "America the Beautiful"–all the verses.
Watch a movie that shows sacrifices made during wartime. Saving Private Ryan, Windtalkers are excellent movies, but their R rating makes them inappropriate for children. Warhorse, Pearl Harbor, U-571, Behind Enemy Lines, and Unbroken are all rated PG-13.
Read the Gettysburg Address and discuss it's meaning.
Green light a vet. Change one of your outdoor lights to green in honor of veterans. The green light represents hope and well-being.
I would love to hear how you celebrated Veterans Day. Please tell me by leaving a comment.
My thanks to those of you reading this who have served our country. You will forever be in my heart. And to those who have family members on active duty, you are in my prayers.


NAIROBI, Kenya: Kenyan police have identified three suspects in the kidnapping of an Italian woman and are offering a reward of one million shillings ($9,750) for information leading to their arrest.
The 23-year-old Italian Silvia Costanza Romano was seized on Wednesday from a coastal community by gunmen who also wounded five people, including children.
Such attacks had become rare after 2011, when Kenya deployed forces to neighboring Somalia in a bid to stop the Al-Shabab extremist group from kidnapping foreigners.
The suspects are Ibrahim Adan Omar, Yusuf Kuno Adan and Said Adan Abdi.


The 24th of June saw the last day at Tanjong Pagar Railway Station of the ever popular Ali Nacha Briyani stall. At 11 am on the day a queue of at least 30 people could be seen snaking around the confined space of the M. Hasan Railway food Food Station by the main hall of the station. Some in the queue were seen to be ordering as much as 20 packets of briyani which resulted in the queue reaching lengths never seen before. By 12.45 pm, a green sign was put up to tell customers that the briyani was sold out, bringing an end to the chapter for the outlet at Tanjong Pagar Railway Station. Fans of the railway briyani may like to know that Ali Nacha would be starting a new chapter at Block 5, Tanjong Pagar Plaza, #02-04.
The media was all over the Ali Nacha Briyani stall, as the queue snaked around to the side of the station building.
By 12.45 pm, the Briyani had been sold out, brining to an end a chapter for Ali Nacha at the Tanjong Pagar Railway Station.
Tanjong Pagar Railway Station began its life in the fourth decade of the 20th Century, opening with a promise that it was to have been the southern point of a rail network that was to span the continent of Asia and connect to the then well established European rail systems. The vision was an ambitious one, a link would not only be created between Europe and the Far East through the railway, but it would also have the potential to reach across the Pacific and Indian Oceans via sea routes, with Singapore – already then a well established port, serving as the principal gateway.
The first act of the station, was however not as a terminal for the carriage of goods or to see the rush of passengers through its main hall. With the station's main building close to completion at the end of 1931, it provided a venue for a Manufacturers' Exhibition that opened on 2nd January 1932.
The exhibition was the first of its kind in Singapore. Coming at a time when the world was still suffering from the effects of the Great Depression, the exhibition purpose was to bring to light Singapore's hitherto unheard of manufacturing potential. Providing local manufacturers with a platform to showcase their products and capabilities, the exhibition also helped to promote Singapore's growing importance as a economic centre in the British Far East – with the very grand looking new station as its centrepiece.
The exhibition's aim, stated in the official guide, had been "to present as many aspects as possible of actual and potential manufacture in Singapore". Included amongst the exhibitors were companies that were to become household names in Singapore including the likes of Robinsons, John Littles, Malaya Publishing House (which was to later become known as MPH), Diethelm and the Straits Trading Company. Opened by the then Governor of Singapore, Sir Cecil Clementi, the exhibition also provided many members of the public with their first view of the internals of the main building of the new station.
The main building of the station was first used as a venue for the first Singapore Manufacturers' Exhibition which opened on 2nd January 1932 (image source: Willis' Singapore Guide, 1936).
The actual opening of the station to railway traffic wasn't until some months later on the 2nd of May 1932. This was commemorated with the arrival of a passenger train, the first to pull into Tanjong Pagar. As reported by the Straits Times on 3rd May 1932, it "comprised of an engine and three saloons to travel over the new deviation". Leaving Bukit Panjang Station at 4.30 pm, it carried a load of guests including the Governor, the Sultan of Perak and Mr J Strachan, the General Manager of the FMSR and arrived "punctually at 5.15".
We stand here at the southernmost tip of the continent of Asia; and, since the Johore Strait is now spanned by a causeway which was opened for traffic on June 28, 1924, we may even say that we stand at the southernmost top of the mainland of Asia. This point is, therefore, a real terminus as well as a natural junction between land-borne and sea-borne traffic; and it is very right that the terminal station of the Malayan railway system should be built at Singapore, the gateway between the Pacific and Indian Oceans and immediately opposite the Tanjong Pagar docks, where every facility will be afforded for interchange between railway and ocean shipping.
While this, eight decades later, has not quite come true (although we are still talking about a Pan-Asian rail network) for the station, there is little to dispute Singapore position as a transport and communications node in the modern sense. The Governor could not of course have predicted the phenomenal growth that air transportation was to see at that point in time.
The location of the station, across from the docks at Tanjong Pagar, was deliberately selected so that the southern terminal of the what would have been an intercontinental overland railway network could be integrated with ocean shipping and extend the reach over the Pacific and Indian Oceans (image source: Willis' Singapore Guide, 1936).
The station, one of many of Swan and McLaren's masterpieces, even in its current state of disrepair, is a wonderful piece of architecture to marvel at and was described by an article in the 7th May 1932 edition of the Malayan Saturday Post as having a "palatial appearance". Overshadowed by the towering blocks that have come up at its vicinity,an elevated road, and buildings and containers stacked high at the docks it was meant to feed, it does however take a bit of effort to take in the station's grand appearance.
A feature of the grand building that is very noticeable is the entrance arches,which are flanked by four triumphal figures. The work of sculptor Angelo Vannetti from the Raoul Bigazzi Studios Florence, they stand guard over all who pass through the arches and into the station's grand vaulted hallway. Described as "lofty and cool" in the same article, the main hall extends three storeys or some 21.6 metres above the visitor, providing a "sufficient pocket of air" to allow the hall to be kept cool in what even then must have been the oppressive tropical heat. It is this lobby that impresses the most. Six sets of mosaic panels, designed to resemble batik paintings, catch the visitor's attention immediately.
The main vaulted hall of the station in its early days. An impressive integration of architecture and public art. The lamps and the clock seen in this picture – has long since disappeared, but the hall remains, even in the state the station building is in today, a particularly impressive piece of architectural work. Caption reads 'Booking Hall, Singapore Station' (image source: Willis' Singapore Guide, 1936).
There is a lot more clutter in the hall today … the lamps and the clock we see in the hall in the station's early days are also missing.
The Willis' Singapore Guide (1936), gives us an idea of Tanjong Pagar and the operations of the FMS Railway from the station in and around the time of the station's opening. It describes the FMSR as running from Singapore for 580 miles to Padang Besar. There it meets the Royal State Railways of Siam.The FMSR also incorporated a 121¼ miles of the Johore State Railway, which was leased to it.
As is the case today, the East Coast Line branched off at Gemas and extended to the port of Tumpat some 465 miles from Singapore. A short branch line connected the line there with the Siamese Railways at Sungei Golok.
We are also told of a branch line connecting Port Swettenham (now Port Klang) with branches also serving other ports along the west coast of Peninsula Malaya. These were at Malacca, Port Dickson, Teluk Anson and Port Weld.
A total of 1321 miles of metre gauge tracks were laid, providing some 1067 miles of track mileage. The guide also provided information on the daily schedule of trains from Singapore to Penang, with a day and night express service run daily. It would then have taken some 22 hours to reach Penang from Singapore and some 9 hours (which doesn't seem much different from the journey these days) to reach Kuala Lumpur.
The journey in the 1930s to Kuala Lumpur took some 9 hours.
On the evidence of the guide, which I suppose would for first class travel, the service provided does seem a lot more luxurious and comfortable as compared to what we've become accustomed to these days. As described by the guide, the Restaurant Car served "an excellent breakfast, luncheon or dinner", at a "reasonable price".
Sleeping Saloons with two berth cabins were provided on the night trains (as they are now) and a "commodious Buffet Parlour Car is attached to the night express trains between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur". Breakfast, tiffin and tea baskets were also available at the principal stations. This could be ordered en route with the "Guard of the trains or any Station Master" who would have been able to "telegraph free of charge".
Once the last train pulls out of Tanjong Pagar Station, it would bring to an end a little over 79 years of operation of a station that was to see centuries as one of the 'most nodal points in the whole world's scheme of communications'.
The information contained in this post has been put together from various newspaper articles and as well as the Willis' Singapore Guide 1936, to provide a glimpse into the early days of Tanjong Pagar Railway Station.

Together with a group of yesterday.sg fans, I had another look around Tanjong Pagar Railway Station, on a 45 minute tour run by the Preservation of Monuments Board (PMB), to provide participants with a better appreciation of Singapore's latest National Monument, before operations end on the 1st of July this year. Besides meeting with yesterday.sg's Shaun Wong, from whom I learnt that the inspiration for the name of the website was the Beatles song "Yesterday", I also had the pleasure of meeting fellow blogger P.Y. of Oceanskies, who incidentally has provided a comprehensive account of the tour, and Belinda Tan who I am grateful to for stirring up quite a fair bit of interest in my blog by posting links to my set of railway memories. The short but informative tour was led by a PMB volunteer, Rosanne, who provided a fair bit of information on the background to the station, the reasons for its establishment and the choice of location. What interested me in particular, was the information that related to the station's architecture, which provided me with a better appreciation of the station.
I had the opportunity to join a PMB tour of Tanjong Pagar Railway Station courtesy of yesterday.sg.
The station we were told by Rosanne, was built to provide a grand station that was to be the terminal of what the British had envisaged as a intercontinental transport network that was to span from Singapore at the southern tip of the Asian continent to the British Isles. The choice of the location close to the docks at Tanjong Pagar signaled the ambitious extent of the British Empire's intent in expanding transport and communication links between the British Isles with Asia and further afield, with Singapore's strategic location being seen as the gateway (by sea) to the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Designed by Swan and MacLaren, the station is thought to have been designed after Helsinki's Central Station and sharing elements with Washington D. C.'s Union Station. The style of architecture, Art Deco, that was selected was one that it was felt combined both Western and Eastern elements and influences. Art Deco is in fact very much in evidence around the station – geometric patterns in the details of the ceiling and arches of the portico an example. Another example of the Art Deco style that is evident is use of triumphal figures in the form of the four Angelo Vannetti sculptures at the façade that represent the four pillars of the Malayan economy, being Agriculture, Commerce, Transport and Industry. Our attention was also drawn to portions of the roof which featured a green tile structure inspired by the roofs of Chinese Temples.
The Chinese temple inspired green tiled part of the station's roof.
Lions on the window details at the station's side are meant to represent Singapore.
Inside the hall, our attention was drawn to the six sets of batik style mosaic mural panels which feature some 9000 tiles that represent the economies of the Federated Malay States (FMS), as well as to the two crests – one being the crest of the Federated Malay States – which comprised of the four British protected states of Selangor, Perak, Negeri Sembilan and Pahang, and the Straits Settlements. Closer inspection of the coat of arms reveals a shield that is coloured with a colour from each of the four state flags in the case of the FMS, and in the case of the Straits Settlements, the shield is made up of four quadrants each representative of the three settlements, Penang, Malacca and Singapore, and also Christmas Island which was annexed to the Straits Settlements in 1889. The station when it was built was designed to maximise the comfort, particularly of first and second class passengers embarking on what was to be a long journey (Rosanne mentioned it took something like 29 hours to reach the Siamese border by train from Tanjong Pagar and the Japanese during the occupation, improved the speed of the passenger trains to 60 km/h and goods trains to 50 km/h, cutting the journey time by some 5 hours), equipped with amenities such as passenger waiting rooms, refreshment rooms, dining rooms, a hairdresser's shop, dressing rooms and lavatories. Based on news reports of the opening of the station, we are also told that there were other rooms such as a telegraph office, parcel room, offices for the necessary station staff and included a few bedrooms.
Batik painting style mosaic mural panels in the main hall depict the economies of the FMS.
The coat-of-arms of the Federated Malay States - the shield features colours of the four protected states of the FMS.
The coat-of-arms of the Straits Settlements with each quadrant of the shield representing the each of the Straits Settlements which then also included the Indian Ocean territory of Christmas Island.
The 45 minute tour ended at the start of the departure platform which now features immigration counters introduced after the separation of Singapore from Malaysia, when travel across the Johor Straits required a passport. When I first started taking the trains in the 1990s, we would have to pass through the Singapore Immigration counters at the near end before going through Malaysian Immigration and Customs further down the platform … this practice was discontinued from mid 1998 when Singapore shifted its immigration to the CIQ Complex in Woodlands, insisting that the Malaysian authorities do the same. This has been resisted right up until today – and up to the 30th of June, one of the things you can still do is to enter Malaysia before leaving Singapore (for a more detailed explanation on this please read my previous post "A final journey from Tanjong Pagar: into Malaysia before leaving Singapore". The platforms we were also told were some 1,200 feet long, built to cater to the longest of mail trains. We were also shown some of the features around the platform of historical value that would be retained – this included the hydraulic buffer stops at the end which apparently are the only ones found in the stations operated by the Malaysn Railway. The tour ended with a little excitement – first from the animated voiced coming from Malaysian immigration officers who tried to tell us we had strayed a little too far along the platform. It was then time for a quick catch up over some teh-tarik at the cafeteria with my fellow participants and new found friends ….
A train on the departure platform - the platforms are 1,200 feet in length to accommodate the longest of the mail trains. We were also told that 3rd Class passengers had to use a side access to the platforms.

The roof over the platforms also show art deco features in the geometric patterns found on them.

Capturing memories and the station's last days of the station seems to be very much fashion these days.
The last opportunity to take a train from an old style station in the heart of Singapore, on a line that has served Singapore since 1932 (parts of it date back to the turn of the last century), through Singapore's countryside, before train services terminate at Woodlands by the time the 1st of July arrives.
Like much of the world we live in ... old is being replaced by the new.
I will certainly miss taking train journeys out of Tanjong Pagar ... something that will perhaps motivate me to take a few more over the next few months before the station closes.
Last light ... the light is fading on the train station as it will hear its last train whistle by the time the first of July comes around.
A fading memory ... the view out of the window of a train passing through Kranji area.
It was on a fine Saturday morning, that I decided to take a four and a half kilometre walk that was organised by the Nature Society of Singapore, along a part of the industrial history of a Singapore that was still finding its feet in the uncertain climate that had surrounded Singapore in the 1960s. It was at a point in time when Singapore was contemplating joining what was then referred to as the Federation, the Federation of Malayan States, better known as Malaya, that work on the Jurong Industrial Estate, a massive project that played a significant part of the island nation's rapid industrialisation in its early years. There is no doubt that the transformation of a marshy and hilly ground which would have been unsuitable for development had the effort that flattened the hills and fill up the swamps over a 3.5 hectare area to not just build an industrial complex, but provide housing and amenities in the area to the workforce that cost hundreds of millions – the biggest single project that had been taken on by the forward looking self-government and the brainchild of the then Finance Minister, the late Dr. Goh Keng Swee, contributed much to what was later, a newly independent Singapore's economic success. Along with the industrial complex that was to set Singapore on its feet, there was of course the big effort to provide infrastructure to support the massive project, which included a somewhat forgotten extension to the railway network on the island, the old Jurong Line.
The now abandoned old Jurong Line was built in the 1960s to serve the Jurong Industrial Estate which was being developed.
The line runs through a corridor which has been relatively untouched by the modernisation that has overtaken the island over the last four decades and forms part of a proposal by the Nature Society of Singapore to preserve the former railway corridors as Green Corridors.
Jurong was in my childhood, one of the ends of the earth, being in what I had envisaged as a forsaken part of the island, good only for the seafood at Tuas village, that meant the long ride along the long and winding old Jurong Road that took one past the creepy stretch where the old Bulim cemetery was located. It was also the object of many school excursions to the area which had in the 1970s, the Jurong Birdpark added to the list of attractions that meant the long ride on the chartered bus which would pass the wonderfully wide tree lined avenue named International Road and culminate in the smell that we would always look forward to with anticipation – that of the aroma of chocolate that would invariably waft out of the Van Houten factory that stood on Jalan Boon Lay. It was only later that I came to know Jurong much better, spending 16 years of my life working in a shipyard at the end of Benoi Road.
It was around when I had first started work there that I started to notice the old Jurong Line, only once spotting a train passing over a level crossing that might have been at Tanjong Kling Road, not significant enough to have caught a mind that was distracted by the early days of my career. I had of course known about the bridges – a truss bridge, similar in construction and appearance to the glorious truss bridges of the main Railway Line that gives the Bukit Timah area some of its distinctive character, that crossed the Sungei Ulu Pandan that was visible from Clementi Road on the double decker bus service number 74 that I occasionally caught home from Clementi during my days in Singapore Polytechnic, as well as a less distinct on that crossed the Pandan River. Beyond noticing the obvious signs of the Jurong Line, I never did find the urge to learn about it until maybe a recent bout of nostalgia for the railway in Singapore brought about by the news that we will see the last of the trains crossing the island come the first day of July this year prompted the urge in me to explore what is now a disused line, and so when I heard of the ramble organised by the Nature Society, I decided to get dirty and muddy in the effort to learn more of the line.
The truss bridge across the Sungei Ulu Pandan at Clementi is a very well recognised landmark.
The walk along the line started at Teban Gardens, which itself was a housing estate that owes its own development to Jurong Industrial Estate which it sits on the fringe of. The estate was constructed in the early 1970s to supplement low cost housing in the area which had been in high demand, as more people found jobs in the Industrial Estate. The first flats were completed in 1976 by the Jurong Town Corporation (JTC) which had been the body responsible for the development of the Indistrial Estate and the flats in the area – along with other JTC developed housing estates in the west of Singapore, have a distinct character compared to the estates developed by the Housing and Development Board (HDB) during that time. The start of the walk in the setting of the fast rising sun, allowed the plots of vegetables and fruit trees to be revealed along that part of the corridor along that area on the approach to the abandoned tunnel that runs under Jurong Town Hall Road, a scene reminiscent of some of the rural scenes of Singapore that I had hitherto thought had been lost in the wave of development that has swept over Singapore. It was nice to return to the that Singapore for a while and take in the "fresh" country air that came with what appeared to be the ample use of fertilizer on the plots of vegetables.
Crossing what were the tracks at Teban Gardens.
A scene perhaps from the rural Singapore of old - small scale farming takes place along some tracts of land through which the corridor passes.
More scenes from what rural Singapore might have once looked like.
It was refreshing start to the walk which continued through one of the five tunnels that the line had featured when it was operational, along with eight steel bridges, three of which we walked across or walked by. Built at a cost of S$5.9 Million by the Malayan Railway with a loan from the Economic Development Board (EDB), construction on the line started in 1963 and was only completed in 1966 with total of 19.3 kilometres of tracks laid, although a public run was made as early as in November 1965. The first service commenced with its opening by Dato Ahmad bin Perang, the then General Manager of the Malayan Railway on 4 March 1966. The line, which branched off at Bukit Timah station and ran under a tunnel across Clementi Road towards the west, ended up at Shipyard Road behind the Mobil Refinery which was then being constructed, with a branch line running to the National Iron and Steel Mills (the estate's first factory) and Jurong Port, and had apparently not been as well used as envisaged, and operation of the line finally ended in the mid 1990s without much fanfare, with the land being returned to the State and lies abandoned for the close to two decades that have passed.
The line featured five tunnels, including this one running under Jurong Town Hall Road.
The line also featured eight steel bridges, including this girder bridge across the Pandan River, along its 19.3 km of tracks from Bukit Timah Station to Shipyard Road and Jurong Port.
The abandonment was certainly pretty much in evidence throughout the walk, not just with "Danger" signs pretty much rendering the tunnel and the bridges along the route places we should have really avoided walking through or on. Trudging through the dark and dingy tunnel certainly wasn't a walk in the park as the thick layer of mud that lined the ground meant a slow trudge towards the light at the end of the tunnel which was a small opening in the zinc sheet that was meant to prevent access into the tunnel at the other end. The first of the bridges we passed was the one across the Pandan River, which looked a little worse for wear and was boarded up to prevent access to it. After that, it was through the Faber Gardens corridor where besides the obvious signs of the abandoned tracks, some being overrun by the vegetation, there were also some nice bits of nature to take in, with even a creek that showed evidence of a swamp in the area with some swamp plants being very much in evidence. It was in the area where two members of the Shield Bug family said hello without giving off the almighty stink that they are known for. This certainly is reason enough to support the Nature Society's proposal to turn the rail corridors into green corridors.

An unspoilt part of Singapore - a creek by the old Jurong Line ... one of the compelling reasons to support the Nature Society's proposal to turn the areas around the tracks into a Green Corridor.
Shield bugs ... not uncommon, but rarely seen in urban Singapore these days.
Nature disturbed by the line but relatively unspoilt.
and in some instances, reclaiming their place on the old abandoned tracks.
More evidence of nature reclaiming the areas around the abandoned tracks.
It wasn't long before we got to the Sunset Strip – the area behind Clementi Town along the Sungei Ulu Pandan that leads up to Sunset Way. That was where we walked into the Chinese temple and a few more reminders of a rural Singapore that is no more, including a water hyacinth pond (water hyacinth ponds were commonly seen as these were often used as fodder for pigs as well as in ponds treating pig waste in the old kampungs). From there, it was across first the rickety old truss bridge that the lack of maintenance on it very evident and looks as it it would be destined for the scrap yard unless my friends in the Nature Society have their way … that provided an excellent photo opportunity and despite the signs warning us not to cross and the clear evidence of a structure that bears the scars of being left in the hot and humid environment without any renewal made of coatings that would have kept the corrosive effects of the environment at bay, proved to be a safer bridge to walk across than the operational ones along the Bukit Timah corridor. It wasn't far then for the human train to reach the sunset – Sunset Way – where another bridge – a grider bridge provides an overhead crossing over the road … where the short, but very interesting walk ended, leaving me with a much deeper impression of the old Jurong Line, and certainly of the proposal to turn the corridor into a green corridor, which I hope, won't as the old Railways across Singapore, ride and fade into the sunset.

In today's society, each and every person is thinking about a green world and when everybody is very much concerned about the threat of global warming and depletion in the ozone layer due to the excessive amount of chlorofluorocarbon in the stratosphere, use of solar panels is becoming very much popular among them. The main source of any solar panel is the sun rays and then it is transferred for commercial and residential use by some mechanical process. Sun rays or the solar energy is known as renewable energy and as the sun is always available during daytime, solar energy is easily gettable and very much reliable also. Depletion of non-renewable energy sources like coal, petroleum is also a cause for the growing industry of solar panels. In earlier days, installation of a solar panel was costly, but now with the advancement of modern technology, it has become very affordable even for home use.
Now if you want to take a step forward for the betterment of our world and in the campaign for the green world, you can install solar panels for your home use. But before installing any such panel, it is always advisable that you should consult with some agency which is well known in this field and will help you to get the job done in the cheapest rate without facing any type of problems.
210Solar Advisor is a reputed firm who offers easy and affordable installation of solar panels for both commercial and residential uses. It is one of the best consultants is this field and by installing solar panel under their consultancy you can actually avail local rebates on the rate and can take advantage of your tax breaks. Installing of solar panels mean you already have taken a step to reduce your electricity bill and to provide clear energy in your house. 210Solar Advisor offers solar panels under different brand names. For more information about the products, you can call their representatives who are always ready to assist you. Apart from this, 210Solar Advisor offers turnkey provisions like solar panel installation, financing issues, and warranty on solar panels. You can get details in their website 210SolarAdvisor.
Now talking about their installation process, it completely maintains routine step by step procedures. Firstly, a company representative will visit your house for necessary analysis because it will help them in order to install the solar panels in such a way which will give you maximum energy along with benefits. After that, they will again visit your house to take measurements and to decide the size and shape of the panels. Next, the firm will make some engineering drawing and submit them to HOA for approval purpose. Once, drawings are approved it will start installing the solar panels followed by testing, inspection, and commissioning.
There are also several points for which 210Solar Advisor is the best, first of all, it is an A+ rated firm and offers no money down option to avail low-interest loans along with insurance plans. Next, you can rely on them as it is a licensed firm and also carries certifications from different electrical contractors. Last but not the least, this firm merely takes one month to complete the whole process which is very much important regarding customer perspective.
