  1. I didn't know got such competition and a Singaporean is the most talented. Maybe should include this SEA game.. Watching her perform was enchanting and I watched til the end. http://www.straitstimes.com/sport/indoor-skydiving-kyra-poh-wins-two-golds-at-wind-games-in-spain?utm_campaign=Echobox&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&xtor=CS1-10
  2. So we have been hit by strong wind lately (sometimes very very strong wind), right after the Dec rains. I remember traditionally we get rain and wind in the later part of the year, like Nov-Dec, and the condition usually dry up, making Feb-march very dry and April-June very hot. However, this year the wind seem to blow non stop, and getting stronger. Any expert can share why and when this strong wind going to go easy?
  3. Curious to know everyone's experiences and views on these 'common' accessories - wind deflectors (also known as window rain guard, door visor, etc.) and mud guards (splash guards or mud flaps). Do the deflectors really reduce noise, or add noise, etc., does lowering the window slightly with deflector actually help, etc. Are mud guards still relevant now? Do they really reduce splashes/mud etc. or do they end up trapping them? Looking to find MCFers' thoughts.
  4. Any bro can advise me on how to DIY stubborn water spots on car wind screen? tks u.
  5. Another one! RIP Seems like a major recall of the big names up there. Must be one helluva rocking concert.... Earth, Wind & Fire soul band founder Maurice White dies From the sectionEntertainment & Arts Image copyright: Getty Images Image caption: In a career that stems back to the 1960s, Maurice White was a singer-songwriter, producer and Earth, Wind & Fire bandleader The founder of soul group Earth, Wind & Fire, Maurice White, has died in the US, his brother has said. White, 74, died in his sleep in Los Angeles on Thursday morning. He suffered from Parkinson's Disease. His band had a series of hits including September, Boogie Wonderland, Shining Star and After the Love has Gone. The singer-songwriter was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 1992 but his condition was reported to have got worse in recent months. Earth, Wind & Fire were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2000, and Maurice was individually inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2010. Image copyright: AP Image caption: Maurice White (centre) pictured here in 2003 with fellow Earth, Wind & Fire band mates Phil Bailey (left) and Ralph Johnson picked up numerous music industry awardsImage copyright: Getty Images Image caption: Earth, Wind & Fire is perhaps best known for its exuberant, horn-driven mix of jazz, funk, gospel and Big Band music Image copyright: Getty Images Image caption: Maurice White (left) is reported to have shown symptoms of neurological disease as far back as the 1980s Popularly known by his nickname of Reese, he worked with various well-known recording artists such as The Emotions, Barbra Streisand, Cher and Neil Diamond. Earth, Wind & Fire have sold more than 90 million albums worldwide. "My brother, hero and best friend Maurice White passed away peacefully last night in his sleep," Verdine White, also a member of the band, told The Associated Press on Thursday. "While the world has lost another great musician and legend, our family asks that our privacy is respected as we start what will be a very difficult and life changing transition in our lives. Thank you for your prayers and well wishes." Earth, Wind & FireA nine-piece band centred around the two White brothers and singer Philip Bailey The band's most successful period began with the 1975 album That's The Way of The World They remained prominent in the charts for at least a decade afterwards White publicly revealed he was suffering from Parkinson's at the time of the band's Hall of Fame induction He stopped touring with the band in 1995 because of a combination of tiredness and health problems White said in an interview with the Associated Press news agency in 2000 that he wanted Earth, Wind & Fire's music to inspire people rather than just entertain them. "That was the whole objective, to try to inspire young people to believe in themselves and to follow through on their ideas," he said. "We've touched so many people with these songs." A former session drummer, White formed a band called Salty Peppers in the Chicago area in the late 1960s. He subsequently moved to Los Angeles, disposing of all of the band members except Verdine, The band was renamed Earth, Wind & Fire after the three elements in his astrological chart. Many of the group's earlier hits were characterised by Bailey's bright falsetto voice. The band is perhaps best known for its exuberant, horn-driven mix of jazz, funk, gospel and Big Band music played at concerts where they performed in glitzy costumes underneath multi-coloured lights. They played at many top venues including the Super Bowl and the White House. "We live in a negative society,'" White informed Newsweek at the peak of the band's success. "Most people can't see beauty and love. I see our music as medicine."

  11. Hi, thinking of installing Thule roof rack but heard that it can be noisy at high speed, even with the Thule Aerobars. I want to leave the bars on the car when not transporting my bikes. Not too concern about FC but particular about excessive wind noise. Thule have new product call Wingbar, claim to cut down noise to almost cannot hear. Anyone use before can comment if it really works and really is noiseless? Is it worth it to pay more for Wingbars? Normal aerobars New Wingbars

    Windy days at Geneva

    These are the first official photos of Renault's brand-new small coupe-roadster model, the Wind. It will have its world premiere at the Geneva Motor Show in early March. Known as the Twingo CC from the spy shots over the past couple of years, the Wind will go up against the likes of the Peugeot 207CC and Opel Tigra in Europe when sales start later in the year. The strictly two-seater model shares its platform and mechanical hardware with the Twingo. Measuring 3.830mm long, it's 230mm longer than the hatchback. Despite the fact that Renault pitches the car as a coupe-roadster, unlike other CC models with retractable hardtops, the Wind uses an electric roof that rotates 180 degrees into the trunk. The whole process takes only 12 seconds and since the roof sits on top of the boot, the Wind's luggage space remains at 270 liters whatever the position of the hardtop. The French automaker is keeping a tight lid on other details for now, but it is expected that the Wind will be offered with two of the Twingo's petrol engines, a 1.2-liter turbo with 100HP and a naturally aspirated 1.6-liter unit with 133HP.
