Even the most minor of injuries can sideline a runner from being active for an extended period of time; some are even determined to run through the pain and risk injuring themselves further. Danny Dreyer's technique, ChiRunning, can help prevent these injuries and promote the ability to run faster, farther, and with less effort at any age. ChiRunning employs the deep power reserves in the core muscles of the trunk, an approach that evolved out of such disciplines as yoga, Pilates, and t'ai chi. Dreyer's training principles are broken down step-by-step to accommodate all levels of runners.

Chia Ann Siang was once one of Singapore’s wealthiest men – a landowner, merchant and philanthropist. Born in Malacca in 1834, he came to Singapore and joined Boustead, an English trading company, as a storekeeper. At the tender age of 22, he was made Chief Storekeeper, and was able to buy himself a house on Telok Ayer Street – and another one on Amoy Street for good measure. An astute property investor, Chia continued to acquire much real estate in the course of his life, including a large nutmeg plantation which soon became known as Ann Siang Hill.Chia Ann Siang died in 1892, leaving a fortune that supported two generations of his family and educated a third. This book looks at the disparate fortunes of his descendents, including a son he disinherited for marrying against his wishes, and a daughter whose marriage brought together two of Singapore’s wealthiest families.Far more than a biography, this is the fascinating story of eight generations of Straits Chinese, from the emigration of Chia’s grandfather from Fujian to Malacca in 1774, right up to the present day.
