This calendar truly deserves the synonym menology, and if you're quick with your order you might be able to get it in time for Christmas. Priced at US$14.99, all the net proceeds will be donated to NYC's University Settlement that aids working immigrants and low-income families.

  • Carpark Review: Junction 8

    Built in the 1980s, Bishan (or Bishan New Town) may not be one of the earliest housing estates in Singapore, but it was the first whose HDB architecture saw a departure from the more brutalist designs of the past and featured more variation in height and design.  Residents are primarily served by Junction 8, which opened in 1993. Now more than 30 years old, it remains the sole mall in the Bishan East area. Driving there? Here’s our quick review of the carpark.  Manoeuvrability: T
