Swan Lake Returns to Singapore on 16 October Starring World-Renowned Mariinsky Soloist Oksana Bondareva

  

Swan Lake Returns with Ballet Superstar Oksana Bondareva. Singapore welcomes back the timeless Swan Lake for a one-night-only encore on 16 October 2025 at The Star Theatre. Featuring international ballet icon Oksana Bondareva of the Mariinsky Theatre, this performance is a cultural landmark for the city. Known for her breathtaking technique and artistry, Bondareva embodies the legendary roles of Odette/Odile in a show that promises passion, power, and perfection. Presented by Crescendo Asia and Saint Petersburg National Ballet Theatre, this is the ballet event of the year for Singapore’s arts scene.

This October, the legendary Swan Lake makes its highly anticipated return to Singapore, bringing with it one of ballet’s most revered stars — Oksana Bondareva. In a role that has defined generations of prima ballerinas, Bondareva will take the stage as the White Swan and the Black Swan — Odette/Odile — in a performance that promises to be both emotionally rich and technically flawless.

A rare appearance by a true Mariinsky soloist, this production marks a monumental moment for the Singaporean arts scene — one that ballet lovers and culture seekers alike will not want to miss.

Oksana Bondareva: A Ballet Icon of Our Time

An alumna of the prestigious Moscow State Academy of Choreography, Bondareva has held principal roles at the Mariinsky Theatre, Mikhailovsky Theatre, and the Russian National Ballet. Her mastery of both technique and storytelling has left audiences spellbound across the globe. From Europe to the Americas, and now to Southeast Asia — Bondareva brings with her the legacy of world-class ballet to the Singapore stage.

An Iconic Return in 2025 Presented by Crescendo Asia and performed by the acclaimed Saint Petersburg National Ballet Theatre, Swan Lake returns following a completely sold-out Southeast Asia tour in 2024.

“This isn’t just a ballet — it’s a cultural milestone,” says Dimitri Montalto, Director of Crescendo Asia. “With Oksana Bondareva in the lead, the Singapore performance becomes a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness ballet royalty in action.”

Ripple deeply integrates with RICH Miner, XRP users usher in a new daily income model


 Ripple has officially announced an in-depth cooperation with the cloud mining platform RICH Miner to open a new passive income model for XRP holders. This integration will incorporate XRP into RICH Miner's smart mining system, allowing users to automatically obtain stable returns every day without selling assets or deploying hardware.

Ripple has officially reached in-depth cooperation with the cloud mining platform RICH Miner, which has attracted great attention from the industry. This cooperation marks the official integration of XRP into RICH Miner's passive income system, providing a new and stable way for global currency holders to increase their assets.

Regardless of how the currency price fluctuates, XRP users can now use the platform to achieve an easy profit experience of daily automatic income without active trading.

1. XRP itself cannot be mined, but it can be a "profit entry"

Unlike Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH) that use the proof-of-work (PoW) mechanism, XRP is a pre-mined cryptocurrency that cannot be "mined" by traditional mining machines. But this does not mean that it cannot bring profits.

On the RICH Miner platform, users can use XRP to purchase various computing power contracts (including mining plans for currencies such as BTC, ETH, DOGE, etc.) to participate in daily profit distribution. This model essentially uses XRP as an "entry asset" for mining investment, opening up a new passive income method.

2. How does RICH Miner cloud mining run the XRP profit process?

The following is a typical participation process for XRP on the platform:

1. Register an account:

Visit the RICH Miner official website and register to receive a $15 novice reward;

2. Use XRP to recharge your account

After registering on the RICH Miner platform, users can choose XRP as the recharge currency. The system will generate a unique XRP address for recharge.

3. Select the contract and confirm the purchase

The platform provides a variety of cloud mining contracts. Choose the appropriate mining contract according to your preference;

●(New User Experience Contract) Investment amount: $100; Term: 2 days; Daily income: $3; Total income: $100.00 + $6.

●(Canaan Avalon A15XP) Investment amount: $600; Term: 8 days; Daily income: $7.20; Total income: $500.00 + $57.60.

●(Bitdeer SealMiner A2) Investment amount: $1,300; Term: 13 days; Daily income: $17.30; Total income: $1300.00 + $221.39.

●(Bitmain Antminer L7) Investment amount: $3,000; Term: 17 days; Daily income: $42.30; Total income: $3000.00 + $719.10.

●(Bitmain Antminer S21 Immersion) Investment amount: $5600; Term: 24 days; Daily income: $84.00; Total income: $5600.00 + $2016.00.

●(Bitmain Antminer L9) Investment amount: $12,000; Term: 32 days; Daily income: $204.00; Total income: $12,000.00 + $6,528.00.

4. Daily income distribution, support for reinvestment or withdrawal

After the contract is purchased, the system will distribute mining income daily according to the computing power ratio, and automatically distribute it to the user's account.

3. Why is it more efficient to choose XRP to participate in cloud mining?

Using XRP as a cloud mining investment asset has the following obvious advantages:

⏱️ Fast transfer speed. It takes an average of 3 to 5 seconds to arrive, which is much faster than mainstream currencies such as BTC/ETH

�� Extremely low handling fees. Usually less than 0.0001 XRP, which is almost negligible

�� High liquidity. The XRP market is active and easy to convert to other income currencies such as USDT, BTC, ETH, etc.

�� Support flexible contracts. RICH Miner provides a variety of contracts, supporting small participation and short-term/long-term income configuration

�� Suitable for mobile users. The whole process can be completed on the mobile app, which is convenient to operate and has a user-friendly interface

IV. Summary: XRP opens up not only transfer efficiency but also daily income for you

the cooperation between Ripple and RICH Miner is undoubtedly a big benefit. It not only broadens the application boundaries of XRP in actual scenarios, but also brings investors a new model of "holding coins means income". In this era of automated income, RICH Miner is becoming an important entry point for XRP users to layout passive income.

Now let your XRP really "move" and create visible returns for you every day.

Design Safer Boilers – Join PetroSync’s ASME Section I Training and Master High-Pressure Code Requirements

 

Master ASME Section I to design and construct safe, efficient high-pressure boilers. PetroSync’s training boosts your code knowledge and engineering value.

When it comes to ensuring the safety and efficiency of power boilers, ASME Section I stands as the gold standard. But if you're like many professionals in the mechanical or energy sector, understanding its full scope can feel overwhelming. This article is your friendly guide to the heart of ASME Section I—why it matters, what it requires, and how you can master it to elevate your career.

Let’s walk through it together.

The Legacy and Purpose of ASME Section I

More than just a code, ASME Section I has shaped the foundation of modern boiler safety. Introduced by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), this section was born from the urgent need to prevent boiler explosions during the industrial revolution. Even today, it continues to protect lives and infrastructure.

ASME Section I provides rules for the design, construction, and inspection of power boilers and boiler components typically used in electric power generating stations, industrial plants, and marine applications. The code isn’t just a recommendation—it’s a globally recognized legal requirement in many jurisdictions.

So, if you’re working in industries that involve high-pressure steam systems, understanding this code isn’t optional—it’s essential.

Essential Requirements for Safe Boiler Design and Operation

At its core, ASME Section I covers four critical areas:

Design Requirements – from allowable stress limits to pressure boundary components.

Materials – ensuring only approved and traceable materials are used.

Fabrication and Welding – strict guidance to minimize failure risks.

Inspection and Testing – detailed NDE (Non-Destructive Examination) and hydrostatic testing protocols.

For example, did you know that ASME Section I mandates that certain safety valves must lift at specific pressure levels, and that these valves must be tested with precise tolerances? It’s this level of detail that keeps operations safe.

Failure to comply—even unintentionally—can result in fines, shutdowns, or worse, endangering lives.

If you're responsible for pressure vessel safety or maintenance, having in-depth knowledge of these requirements isn’t just good practice—it’s your duty.

Common Compliance Pitfalls—and How to Avoid Them

Many companies think they're compliant until it’s too late. Here are some typical mistakes engineers and operators make:

Improper documentation of material traceability.

Incorrect welding procedures not approved by a qualified Welding Procedure Specification (WPS).

Overlooking periodic inspection intervals, especially after repairs or system modifications.

These errors usually stem from a gap in understanding or training. That’s where hands-on education becomes crucial.

Whether you're a fresh engineer, an HSE professional, or a seasoned inspector, the risk of misinterpreting the code is real. And unfortunately, so are the consequences.

Advancing Your Boiler Expertise Through PetroSync Training

If you’re serious about becoming proficient in ASME Section I, nothing beats learning from the experts. That’s where the ASME Section I training course from PetroSync comes in.

What makes it different?

Real-world instructors with decades of field experience

Interactive case studies that bridge theory and practice

Certification that strengthens your professional credibility

Small class sizes that allow for personalized attention and Q&A

Plus, you’ll join a global network of engineers, inspectors, and managers who share your commitment to excellence and safety.

By the end of the course, you won’t just "know" the code—you’ll know how to apply it confidently in your day-to-day work.

$12 trillion in pension funds will flow into cryptocurrency cloud mining - BTC Miner cloud mining smart choice


 

July 2025, New York / London - Bitcoin once again broke through the $120,000 mark, consolidating its position as the world's most valuable and influential crypto asset. Behind this rise is the confidence of investors in the upcoming US crypto legislation, especially the clear regulatory framework for the digital asset industry is gradually being implemented, paving the way for compliant investment.

At the same time, huge pension funds are preparing to enter the market. According to data from the US Department of Labor, as of March 31, 2025, the total assets of all employer-led contributory retirement (DC) plans nationwide have reached $12.2 trillion, of which 401(k) plans alone hold $8.7 trillion. With the opening of policies, this capital pool is very likely to become a key force in promoting the next round of crypto asset infrastructure construction.

Under this trend, the BTC Miner platform has taken advantage of the situation and provided compliant, safe, and zero-threshold cloud mining solutions to help global investors enter the world of encrypted assets and enjoy the structural dividends brought by cryptocurrency cloud mining.
