Now that the holiday season is over, it is not terribly surprising that sales spiked last week: 29 contracts were signed at $4 million and above, 11 more than the 2 weeks from December 23 to January 5. Two sales were above $25 million.
The No.1 contract was 64CE at 25 Columbus Circle, asking $29,975,000, reduced from $40 million when it went on the market in November 2012. This is a 5-bedroom condo with 4,375 square feet in the Time Warner Center that translates to an asking price of $6,851/square foot. The unit has a 40-foot living room and a 29-foot master bedroom facing Central Park. It was purchased in 2006 for $22.5 million.
The No. 2 contract was a combination of units 50 West and 50 East at 56 Leonard, asking $28.75 million. When the units are combined, they will total 6,947 square feet with a potential for 8 bedrooms with 12-foot ceilings, 9 bathrooms, and 6 balcony/terraces totaling 935 square feet. 56 Leonard is a 60-story, 145-unit condo that has been one of the biggest hits since last February, when it started selling units off of floorplans averaging $2,999/sq.ft.. It is now 93% sold, but will not be completed for another year.

Moody's upgrades Thailand's credit rating from negative to stable
Thai economy to grow 3.8% in 2021 says EIC
Moody's decision to change the outlook was prompted by the robust economic recovery and the stabilisation of government finances despite continuing domestic political turmoil.
Akanksha Singh
Moody's Investors Service has changed the outlook on Thailand's Baa1 local and foreign currency government bond ratings to stable from negative.
Moody's decision to change the outlook was prompted by the robust economic recovery and the stabilisation of government finances despite continuing domestic political turmoil. "The government of Thailand has capably steered the economy through a major external economic shock, and a potentially destabilising domestic crisis," said Christian de Guzman, assistant vice president and Moody's lead sovereign analyst for the country.
Since 2006, foreign exchange reserves have nearly trebled to US$169 billion dollars in mid-October 2010 on the back of persistent current account surpluses and large capital inflows more recently. External debt levels have remained manageable as both the government and the private sector have largely been able to meet their financing needs onshore.
Downside risks persist as the economy continues to be heavily reliant on external demand for its goods exports, as well as tourism receipts. There are also a number of potential triggers for further political turmoil in the near to medium-term, including forthcoming court decisions, key anniversaries of political violence, and parliamentary elections to be held before November 2011.
Uncertainty surrounding the political situation could defer private investment, which has been accelerating at a rapid rate recently, according to an economic
Produced by Moody's Economy.com, a division of Moody's Corp, the research said lower investment and fewer foreign direct investment inflows could nevertheless be the protests' largest economic legacy.
"Not only will it lower construction and capital spending now, it will also lower future production capacity. Thailand's economy has had the ability to brush off political turmoil relatively well in the past, which could be the case again this time. Even so, March's indicators will suggest what can be expected in April and in future months if the turmoil continues," it said.
The research was released today, while another subsidiary of Moody's Corp, Moody's Investors Service, will next month review its rating for Thailand.

Geographic location
Burma is situated in Southeast Asia and borders the People's Republic of China in the north and northeast, Laos in the east, Thailand in the southeast, Bangladesh in the west and India in the northwest. It is interesting that Myanmar lies between the two most densely populated countries in the world - China and India.
Bangladesh, 5x smaller than Myanmar and 3x bigger than Myanmar, is another of its neighbors. In contrast to Myanmar, the former is not rich in indigenous habitats and has the unfortunate habit of being struck by almost every year by catastrophes. Burma is home to eight large nationally racial groups with some 135 different nationalities.
Their most important breeds are Kachin, Kayin, Kayah, Chin, Mon, Bamar, Rakhine and Shan. Myanmar's politics of division and domination, with which the British had governed Myanmar for over 100 years, opened the way to the eruption of insurrection as soon as it gained back its sovereignty. Myanmar's main character General Aung San and his entourage were murdered in July 1947 by the accomplices of the British Revolution.
This was the most harmful act in Myanmar's entire story. In the nineteenth century, the British also started producing opioum in the north of Myanmar with the goal of boosting trading with China. Burma has inherited these issues, which have stayed a fixed and topical area.
The refusal to name a people by their name may seem unimportant to some, but it is a source of disgust among a very large minority of Myanmar's people. It is about the acknowledgement of the land by its name. Obviously there are some Myanmar policy makers who, for certain policy considerations, choose to keep the name Burma given by the former British colonial administration.
Burma and its capitol Yangon are not new titles that have been established by the State Law and Order Restoration Council. Indeed, Myanmar and Yangon are the initial nicknames changed by the British colonial administration to Burma and Rangoon. Although the Myanmar and Yangon are used in the Myanmar languages, unfortunately none of the consecutive governments of Myanmar has bothered to restore the name.
SLORC's government did so with two key objectives: to convey a sensation of liberation from Britain's history and to give a previously split and fragile nation a sensation of nationhood under the new slogan "The Union of Myanmar". There are 8 large domestic breeds in the Union of Myanmar with about 135 ethnical groups, and among the 8 large nations, Bamar is the biggest domestic breed, accounting for 70% of the total people.
It is suspected that when the colonial administration colonised Myanmar in the lat 1800s, Britain re-named it Burma because Bamar or Burmans (the use of the British) were the dominant people in the land they were occupying. This is one of the first known links to "Myanmar". Bamar was first mentioned only in artefacts and structures from the CONSTRUCTION period (18th and 19. century).
It is also very interesting to know that China has been known as Myan-Tin in the Mandarin languages since antiquity. She never called Myanmar Burma-Tin or Bur-Tin because the British colonial administration had renamed it. Some years ago in Yangon there was an audio-visual conversation between members of the press and some racial community leader (former rebel groups) and the issue of name changes was posed by some of the press.
Peoples have responded by saying that they do not currently see themselves excluded, but have a sense of their own nationhood under the name of Myanmar. Of course, the people who are still opposed to the Myanmar government will say things differently because they have joined the ruling group, which is refusing to recognise the name.
Had General Aung San, Myanmar's political ruler, not been murdered in 1947 before Myanmar gained back its autonomy, the then rulers would definitely have restored the name. Since the United Nations has recognised Myanmar by its initial name, it is the duty of all UN member states to agree to it whether they endorse it or not.
In 1948, after the restoration of British sovereignty, the land was governed by a civil regime (parliamentary democracy government). Due to intraparty conflict and collisions with the two other opposing political groups, the regime has only focused on its own affair and ways and means of re-election in the forthcoming elections.
As a blatant example of the extreme to which they went, the then-Premier declared Buddhism, which has over 80% of the people in the land as his adherents, the state religion of Myanmar, to win voices for his political group from the Buddhaist mass.
Simultaneously, the needs and demands of the ethnical race were ignored and overlooked. Unfortunately, his move resulted in a revolt among the racial groups, which profess other religions, and an automatic uprising. Although it was clear from the outset that the then regime was mistaken in its actions, the army had neither a vote nor a vote to take, but orders to fight all the rebel groups established by the state.
The rebels also controlled half of Mandalay and the suburbs of Yangon. Burma was then ridiculed by the Western world as the Rangoon administration, which also refuses to trade much-needed weapons and munitions to the administration to ward off the uprising. Myanmar forces struggled with the nation and repatriated the groups and finally overtook.
Unfortunately, during this period in 1950 an incursion from outside into the northeast and east of Myanmar began. Kuomintang (KMT) forces, driven out of Southern Yunnan Province in China by the People's Liberation Army P.R.C., fled and set up basecamps in the Myanmar area.
Revenue was also used for the large weapons stockpile delivered to KMT and the various communities in Myanmar. While in Myanmar, two US embassadors, William J. Sebald and David Mc Key, stepped down in protests because they were not aware of their government's activity in the area.
It is clear that these activity was the seed of the present problem of drugs in northern and northeastern Myanmar. Though the KMT were formally flew from Myanmar in the early 1960s under UN oversight, remains of the two KMT division were still operating on Myanmar's north-eastern and eastern border until the capitulation of Khun Sa, the lord of the war on drugs, about four years ago in 1996.
Interestingly, the KMT has not only promoted the cultivation of marijuana in the Golden Triangle and on the MyanmarYunnan frontier, but has also been in charge of the processing of marijuana into smack and the creation of local heroine stores. Myanmar has been working with the US government on anti-drug interventions since 1974 and has received high praise for its work.
Myanmar has received $68 million from the U.S. government for a 14 year term from 1974 to 1988, mainly for the education of Myanmar civil servants and for the replacement parts and supplies used in the fight against drugs. While in Myanmar, 92 prosecutors were murdered and 512 were seriously injured.
The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency has also learned that Myanmar's $19 billion effort to stop $19 billion of heroine from entering the roads of the West, mainly the United States. Despite the fact that the US has stopped aid since 1988, Myanmar has, from 1988 to 1996, been preventing $45 billion dollars valuable heroine from entering the US roads without significant external aid.
Simultaneously, Myanmar's prosecution authorities succeeded in breaking and abandoning the infamous Khun Sa drugs force in the Golden Triangle. Burma's victims were 766 police officers murdered in battle, while 2300 were seriously injured, along with a large amount of theft.
Not only have the US and the Western world failed to acknowledge and promote Myanmar's attempts in this battle against narcotics, they are also obstructing their struggle against addiction forces by imposeing an arms embargo. 3. Narcotics forces were privileged to use elaborate weaponry to combat those who claimed serious casualties, while low-grade weaponry was used by governments.
By other words, the US and its western coalition not only refuse to support Myanmar in the battle against narcotics, but also make it physical and impractical to do so by imposing an embargo on Myanmar on weapons. Despite all the man-made problems and man-made barriers put in place by the West, Myanmar has succeeded in breaking the forces of Khun Sa, the lord of the narcotics war, with its own finite means and funding from on-line casinos such as juegoscasinoonline.com.ar.
This has been accomplished by the sacrifice of much energy, perspiration and water from Myanmar's defense forces and prosecution authorities, and has received enormous praise from the outside for the country's achievements and work. Notwithstanding Myanmar's victory in the unquestioning capitulation of Khun Sa, which led to the dissolution of Khun Sa's Mong Tai Army and Khun Sa itself had under the control of the US and UK governments, the Western hemisphere, especially the US and UK, have further accused Myanmar of not being serious in the war on narcotics, of not surrendering Khun Sa to the US and of not taking action against Khun Sa and other interethnic rulers.
It' very interesting to see the comparison of the US and Myanmarethods. Noriega and Escobal were pursued by the USA as a big PR window for the US administration. Myanmar's approach to Khun Sa after his absolute capitulation was to dissolve his military and have Khun Sa and his best helpers under state oversight and account.
Heads of State and Government may have foreign wealth, but since no nation has provided such information, the Myanmar government has no option but to take ownership of giving them a new and legit lifestyle so that they can be included in the mainspring of it all. Myanmar genuinely hopes, however, that those who are seriously affected and affected by this drugs issue will not only stop pointing fingers at others and playing scapegoat, but also find more serious, real and practicable ways to address the issue.
The pressure on others to adopt and implement practices that have undoubtedly been unsuccessful in the past will definitely not help us in our battle against narcotics. In the case of Myanmar, the US Government's relentless and unreasonable reluctance to acknowledge its efforts as an anti-inflammatory is alarmingly preposterous and foolish, on the one side and on the other, not to care enough and not to do enough to stop or at least contain the consumers or consumers side.

A review in The New Yorker (May 19, 2003) described JUDGE by Dwight Allen (Algonquin, 2003) this way: "Slight, dishevelled, almost totally without guile, eighty-two-year-old Judge William Dupree, of Louisville, departs this world leaving behind only the shimmer of his beneficence. His death leaves his family–his hypochondriac wife and his peripatetic sons–at a loss. Without the love that he steadily, but unobtrusively, supplied, his sons go haywire: the elder leaves his amiable wife for an aspiring ventriloquist, and the younger, a struggling writer, returns home, where he falls into the arms of his father's law clerk. Allen's preoccupation with ardor in all its forms brings Walker Percy to mind, and his lovely, elegiac book shows how easily even the most well-made life can unravel."
Publishers Weekly (April 7, 2003) said of the novel, "Allen's characters are likably flawed and drawn with a delicate, subtle hand. . . Add to this his assured prose (a character's nightgown is 'the color of the moon, as colored by a child bearing down hard with a silver Crayola'), and the book is a quietly moving accomplishment."
In a Washington Post review (April 13, 2003), Martha Bayne wrote, "Allen's quiet, genteel storytelling casts a surprising spell. An errant fabulist image haunts the pages, and though its initial appearances are a bit at odds with the precise realism of Allen's prose, ultimately it works as a wry manifestation of how memories can linger after death to taunt those left behind."
Crawford had always found it unsettling to see his father without glasses. He looked naked and helpless, like a baby bunny that had wandered out of its nest. Crawford remembered one day in the early sixties, when he was twelve or so, watching his unspectacled father grope his way toward the swimming pool at the country club they belonged to, watching him step warily across the concrete apron, his eyes cast down, his mouth grimly set, the good humor with which he usually saw the world having vanished from his face because what lay before him was a blur of light and noise, a hundred voices, the acrid smell of chlorine, the faintly sexual smell of boxwood bushes whose tiny leaves littered the pool, the clotted summer air. His long swim trunks were cinched higher above his waist than was necessary or stylish, his body was as white as the moon except where black hair sprouted. Crawford had watched from the shallow end–Morgan was in the deep end, doing can openers off the high dive–and had wondered for a moment if he should go take his father's elbow and guide him down the steps into the water. And yet the sight of him looking so pitiful, like the kid who gets picked on in school, had annoyed Crawford. How could this man be the person who'd been elected in a landslide to a county judgeship, an office he would hold for another ten years, until Richard Nixon appointed him to a higher court? How could this pale person, this phantasm, be Crawford's father, the man who helped him with his algebra, who knew all the kings and queens of England and France from the Norman Conquest forward, who arbitrated disputes between Crawford and Morgan and between everybody and Mrs. Dupree (though, generally, it should be said, in Crawford's mother's favor)? How, Crawford had wondered, could his father be so different from him? When Judge Dupree finally entered the pool and began to do his version of the crawl, lifting his face most of the way out of the water when he took a breath, like a disoriented swimmer searching for shore, Crawford moved out of his path and watched him go by. Morgan, who had apparently spotted his father from the diving platform, swam over and greeted him. They horsed around. Crawford heard his father say, "Where's your brother?"
–from the second chapter of JUDGE by Dwight Allen


In this conversation, the family goes to Monticello, in Virginia, the home of the third U.S. president, Thomas Jefferson.
Sam: Did Thomas Jefferson live at Monticello when he was president?
Paul: No. He, like all other U.S. presidents, lived at the White House during his presidency. The only exception is George Washington.
Claudine: So he lived here before and after he was president?
Paul: That's right. And he loved this place. Jefferson designed the house and was even buried on the grounds here.
Gina: And it was built as a plantation house. Remember, this was during the antebellum period, and this was part of the South.
Claudine: So Jefferson had slaves?
Gina: Yes. He had several hundred slaves during his lifetime.
Paul: But while we were in Pennsylvania, we learned that he drafted the Declaration of Independence. And that document states "that all men are created equal." How could he have slaves and still think all men are equal?
Gina: That is a great question. Perhaps we'll learn more about him today at Monticello that will help answer your question.
Monticello was the home of Thomas Jefferson.
A presidency is the period of time a person is president.
To bury someone means that a person who is no longer alive is placed in a grave (a hole in the ground that is covered with dirt after the body is placed in it).
The land around a large building is called the grounds.
A plantation house is the main house of a plantation. A plantation is a large area of land where crops (such as cotton or wheat) are grown. During a period of time in the southern United States, plantation owners used slave labor to do the farming and other work on the plantation.
To draft a written document means to write the first version of it, before writing the final version of the document.
The Declaration of Independence is a document that stated the 13 colonies in America were independent from Great Britain. It took effect on July 4, 1776. July 4 is a national holiday (called the Fourth of July and Independence Day) in the U.S.

Q: Get owner of socket in OS X kernel extension I am writing a Mac OS X NKE which places a socket filter. One I receive a socket, I need to get the PID of the socket's owner. I have tried the FIOGETOWN ioctl, but I receive an errno of 102 (Operation not supported on socket). Is there any way to get the owner's PID?

A: I found it! Apparently, when the attach callback of a socket filter executes, you are executing in the context of the process that created the socket. A simple call to proc_selfpid() gives the PID.

As challengers – established firms – and neobanks – digital mobile outfits – are not burdened with legacy technology, they are able to disrupt the status quo. These organisations have taken off in the UK because of the traditional industry having adopted digital banking from the late 1990s.
According to KPMG's global head of banking and capital markets Judd Caplain, this phenomenon has expanded immensely and there are now more than 100 challenger banks operating worldwide. Caplain lists Asian players such as China's MyBank backed by titan Alibaba, WeBank launched by conglomerate Tencent, Digibank of India, Vietnam's Timo, Japanese outfit Jibun Bank and South Korea's K Bank and Kakao Bank as success stories.


The comparison of adjective words or adverb words is known as Comparison of Degree in English grammar. It is a significant chapter of Transformation of sentences. Here, we are to change a sentence from Positive to Comparative or Superlative according to the rules of changing the adjective or adverb words. I am going to discuss 5 rules on changing degree from one form to another form.
The question item on Changing degree is familiar in various academic and admission exams such as J.S.C, S.S.C, H.S.C,University Admission, Job exams, and BCS exam. So, a language learner must master this lesson in order to answer all the questions on this item successfully. Here, I will show you the easiest ways of changing degrees. I hope you will get this lesson different from the traditional methods published in various grammatical and text books. You will certainly not face any trouble in learning changing degrees after reading this lesson. So, let's start our discussion now.
In this class, this student is intelligent.
In this class, this student is more intelligent than Max.
In this class, this student is the most intelligent.
The sign of Positive Degree is "as…..as/so…..as".
The sign of Superlative Degree is "the".
The form of adjective or adverb word will be changed following the form of degrees such as: (Positive- Strong)/ (Comparative- Stronger) / (Superlative-Strongest).
During transformation, the original meaning of the sentence should not be changed.
During transformation, in order to keep the meaning same, you have to change the position of subject and object.
Now follow these 5 rules of changing degrees from positive to comparative and superlative.
Now see the examples and explanations of these rules below. The changing parts of all sentences are in bold form. I have explained all the facts of each rule both in English and Bengali language.
Positive: No other boy in the class is as good as John.
Comparative: John is better than any other boy in the class.
Superlative: John is the best boy in the class.
Here, the adjective word 'good' is changed into 'better' in comparative and 'best' in superlative. Besides, the object word 'John' in positive has become subject word in comparative and superlative. Finally, you see that the form of verb is singular in this rule.
Positive: Very few cities are as developed as New York in the world.
Comparative: New York is more developed than most other/than all other cities in the world.
Superlative: New York is one of the most developed cities in the world.
Here, the adjective word 'developed' is changed into 'more developed' in comparative and 'most developed' in superlative. Besides, the object word 'New York' in positive has become subject word in comparative and superlative. Finally, you see that the form of verb is plural in this rule.
Positive: The boy is as strong as the girl.
Comparative: The girl is not stronger than the boy.
Positive: You believe him as much as I.
Comparative: I do not believe him more than you.
Positive: Your bag is as fine as mine.
Comparative: My bag is not finer than yours.
In this rule, you will get a single word after "as…as". Here, the adjective word 'strong' is changed into 'stronger' in comparative. Besides, the object word 'The girl' in positive has become subject word in comparative form. Finally, you will make the comparative negative if the positive form is in affirmative. But, if the positive form is in negative, you will make the comparative form affirmative. This is must to keep the meaning same.
Comparative: The girl is no less ugly than you said.
Positive: The student is not as fool as I think.
In this rule, you will get a sentence after "as…as". Here, you need not change the adjective form in comparative and the position of subject and object will also be not changed. You will make the comparative negative if the positive form is in affirmative. But, if the positive form is in negative, you will make the comparative form affirmative. This is must to keep the meaning same.
Positive: As soon as the man came, I left the room.
Comparative: No sooner had the man come than I left the room.
Here, you will just transform the phrase "as soon as" into "No sooner had" and the part "(,)" comma" into "than" in comparative form. Besides, you need not change the adjective word form in comparative and the position of subject and object will also be not changed.
These are the complete 5 rules on changing degrees with examples and explanations. I hope you have better understood this lesson now. You can transform any sentence from positive to comparative or superlative and superlative to comparative and positive. But if you face any trouble in understanding this lesson "5 Rules of Changing Degrees", please inform me on comment section below. I am always here to assist you, to ensure your language learning.


Although it is one of the most neglected parts, the customer service is actually one of the most important elements of a business, and its development and growth are inseparable part of every company's way towards success. The statistics are devastating, according to a recent survey 78% of customers refuse to make an intended purchase, due to bad customer experience or rude service. Yes, even a firm decision for a purchase can be shaken (or downright changed) when met with unprofessional or rude service.
However, most of the time customer service doesn't get the financial or operative support it needs to work at its best. This is a fact, mainly because of the discrepancies in defining a good customer service. In most companies, a good customer experience means picking up the phone on time, which is a good starting point, but is the same as saying someone is a good pilot, just because he has seen an airplane. So, such companies almost never provide financial support to their customer service team.
But the truth is, the customer service department, including its agents and managers, deals with a lot of challenges, which defy the future sales stability of the company, customer retention and the company's image as a whole. It develops skills for cross and up-selling, as well as working closely with the sales team to secure more sales.
All this is a sign of a professional service department, but for this you need a professional team. And such team is created with frequent trainings.
Those trainings need to be periodical and diverse – webinars, e-training modules, live trainings and, of course, coaching, in order to achieve maximum results. Hiring a professional company, which will provide the training, increases the possibility of developing your customer service. To achieve this you need the financial support of the management. And in order to receive such support, you have to show, that the customer service team is a vital part from the company and is as important as the sales team or any other department. You have to be able to "sell" your customer service team.
Show such data to your management and explain the challenges you meet in the process of developing and training your team. Show statistics presenting the relation between good results and periodical training. Prove that good customer service ads value and the support from the management won't be late.
As we've mentioned, in order to achieve maximum effectivity with your customer service, you need to train your department often. And what better source of development than a professional company providing such trainings? Check out our online training services and give us a call, so you can take advantage of your customer service department as soon as possible.

Eddie Redmayne and James Corden surprising people with balloons is 11 minutes of pure joy
By Sam Haysom 2019-12-06 09:56:30 UTC
"I feel like a Carpool Karaoke reject," says Eddie Redmayne, clambering into a van full of balloons alongside James Corden in the clip above.
Their task, which involves travelling across LA to surprise people with telegrams, does have a fair bit in common with Corden's most popular series from The Late Late Show, too — there's driving, there's singing, and there's plenty of entertaining conversation in between.
Still, Redmayne has something none of the Carpool Karaoke stars have: balloons.
So, so many balloons.

It looks like terraform doesn't support data "aws_glue_job", it only has something like data "aws_glue_script", but it's not clear how to reference the glue name....
anyone what's the correct way to do this? Thanks.

A: There is no data source called aws_glue_job. The only one that exists is aws_glue_script. You would have to create external data source which would required custom script in bash, for instance, as shown in docs.
The script would use AWS CLI to get-job to query AWS Glue for a job of interest and return its details to your TF script for future processing.
But if module A creates a job, then it should output it. Once its output, you can reference in as input to module B.

Samsung Galaxy X: Samsung's fold-able phone.
Samsung's new Fold-able Phone.
Samsung's mobile boss has said the company is aiming to launch a bendable phone in 2018, assuming it can overcome some problems. Additionally, we've heard that its model number might have popped up in a Korean filing. We could be just a bit closer to release after all.
Foldable phones are coming – it's only a matter of time – and it's looking increasingly like Samsung could be the first company to commercially launch one, possibly as soon as this year.
We may even know what it's called, with the mysterious Samsung Galaxy X being the subject of several bendable leaks, foldable patents and flexible rumors.
But whether X marks the spot or not, we're clearly entering a foldable future. To see how we got here and where we're going, here's the story of Samsung's foldable phone so far.
The idea of a foldable phone isn't new to Samsung, in fact way back in 2011 the company showed off a prototype of exactly that.
The device looked chunky and awkward, but even back then it somewhat worked, remaining intact after 100,000 folds, with only a 6% drop in brightness at the center, where all the folding action happened.
This clearly wasn't a commercial product, but later that year Samsung launched a concept video of a fully bendable (and transparent) mobile device, that could fold out from a phone-sized screen to a tablet-sized one, showing Samsung's ambitions for the technology.
While a device like the one in the video above is likely still years away even now, by 2012 Samsung was already hard at work trying to launch the first generation of flexible or foldable phones, but a report late in the year claimed that problems with the production of flexible screens would hold the first bendy display back until at least 2013.
That didn't stop Samsung showing off another video of a foldable future though, highlighting all sorts of transparent screens, made from plastic that's thin, light and flexible enough to fully fold or roll.
And as 2012 came to a close it seemed Samsung might be overcoming its production problems, with another report claiming that its flexible plastic screens were in the final stage of development, with the first phones sporting them likely to land in mid-2013.
Samsung's bendy plastic screens got a more real-world debut at CES 2013, along with a name – they were now called 'Youm', though it was clear from the flexible prototype on show that Samsung was still far from putting a Youm display on a commercial device.
That was made even more clear when the tech was reportedly hit with new manufacturing issues in April 2013. Supposedly the previous problems had been solved, but now Samsung was apparently struggling with the encapsulation technology, which protects the screen from moisture and air damage.
In May 2016 Project Valley got a new name – the Samsung Galaxy X, which was believed to be the name it would release under.
According to reports at the time it would be ready for release in 2017 and would have a foldable 4K display, so that the resolution would remain high even when the phone was folded.
We were sceptical about that launch date at the time, and still are, as it sounds seriously futuristic compared to the phones we're using currently.
But that's not quite the full story so far. At SID 2016 Samsung showed off a roll-out display – but one which didn't have a touchscreen layer, which would be pretty vital for a smartphone.
Then in June "people familiar with the matter" reported that we might see two foldable phones from Samsung in 2017 - backing up those previous Galaxy X reports.
Supposedly one would fold out from a 5-inch handset to an 8-inch tablet, much like the concept video Samsung showed back at the beginning of our story, while the other would fold in half like a cosmetic compact, along the lines of a folding phone patent we'd already seen.
We still weren't convinced, but Samsung was clearly on the right track, with another patent looking to solve one of the biggest problems with folding phones – the ability to fold without damaging any internal components.
The patent described an "artificial muscle", which would move in time with the screen bending to protect other components.
Our most recent look at what might be the Samsung Galaxy X came from a patent spotted by GalaxyClub, highlighting a long device, with a shape more like a remote control than a smartphone, but one which could fold down to half the size.
The shape doesn't seem particularly practical, so we doubt this is the form the Galaxy X will take, but it's vaguely along the lines of the phone-to-tablet convertible we've been hearing about.
And talk of a 2017 launch hasn't died. In late 2016 we heard rumors that a foldable Samsung phone would launch early the following year, followed by another later in the year. One of these was said to have two displays with a hinge in the middle, while the other will apparently have a single flexible screen.
More recently we've heard again that the Galaxy X will arrive in 2017, but not until the second half of the year.
According to some sources, more than 100,000 units are going to roll out in the third quarter of the year - though plans for a 2017 launch could apparently be changed.

No longer user friendly
By getdemgators
App used to be okay. There was a time when this app would give you turn by turn navigation, after you made a turn it would indicate the next regardless of distance, so you could anticipate the next set of directions and change lanes accordingly. A few updates ago they removed this feature for who knows why. Initially it wasn't a big deal because you could simply zoom out quickly to see the next turn yourself. Now they have made it so sensitive if you touch the screen or attempt to move the map to see where to go next it starts spinning wildly and fighting whatever you try and do to see the location you are going towards. For example you are driving straight and are going to make a left turn in 1 mile and the address is only 1.2 miles away. So you think "okay I can zoom out a bit to see if the business is on the left or right side of the road after the turn" WRONG if you try to slide the map further to see where to go it will start orienting itself in opposition of what you are trying to do. Zoom in, zoom out, and flip your always North facing settings for no apparent reason. Stop messing with the apps fundamental settings you are going to be responsible for accidents, erratic lane changes, missed exits off the freeway, etc. It is ridiculous and absolutely irresponsible to make such drastic changes in an apps basic functions that people need to use daily.
With the ios 14 update, Google maps have not been working for the last 2 weeks.
By Jackdep
Hello! I am a professional Driver and have been using Google maps for 3 years. But literally the last 2 weeks have become impossible to use Google Maps. I even decided to write a review in the hope that the developers would hear me and fix bugs. I believe that Google maps began to work poorly since the moment Apple released the new iOS 14. Maps began to simply slow down, freeze, and turn off arbitrarily. Just awful! I am so sad and sorry that I cannot use my favorite google maps as before. Developers please hear me and Fix it. This is really a problem now. All of my friends are also professional drivers who used google maps every day - they all say that it is impossible to use Google maps for the last two weeks. I've heard this from more than 50 people. And please, the developers don't t need to give advice such as you give as a standard for all comments. I tried to clear cookies, cleared memory, Google maps on my latest version, I rebooted the phone - none of this helps. This is what you have in the system inside. You just haven't made compatibility with devices on iOS 14. and I'm not the only one with many I spoke to - all the same problems. Please correct this. I really want to use convenient and reliable Google maps as before. Thank you for your understanding!
BACKOUT or Put a FIX IN for buggy update..
By Dmb5381
Love this map app.. especially being able to share my location real-time with other people. Found this hidden gem feature (for me at least)traveling from IL to FL. Kept ppl I formed without a lot of texts or phone calls. 👍 That said... based on my interaction with the app a recent release royally screwed up city navigation where I'm at near Fort Meyers FL. I hope the update I just installed corrects the issues and madness this app has caused me the last few days bc I don't know this city from Adam. The app has been literally unusable for 2-3 days navigating the area. So bad the audio told me to go south when I needed to go due north. I looked at the screen and the satellite image was correct on current location and route to intended location. I couldn't get the audio to toggle on at all. Even after reboot of my iPhone 10. That's when had no choice but exit your app and use map app plan B. IN SUMMARY, google developers please don't make me find a new "everyday use" map app so I can rely on it to tell me the correct information in this city. If you haven't already,, backout, research issues if you aren't aware, or push an emergency update with fixes to correct things. Thank you 😕
Worse over time
By sarwalmac
Let's get one thing straight: I love google. I use Google Chrome over safari, Google Calendar over the one that comes with iPhone, and for a long time, I used Google Maps over Apple Maps. Google Maps a year ago was amazing. It always knew right where I was, the voice notifications were brief and prompt, and the app overall was just easy to use. Fast forward to today. Maps only communicates in NSEW directions "Head East" (Who knows that?), the voice notification system is mediocre at best, and to say that Google Maps is glitchy is an understatement. I just went to a new city and drove my car around, and more often than not I was slinging my car across four lanes of traffic trying to make an exit that Google didn't let me know I needed to take, or saying that I was on the wrong side of the road, going the wrong way or off the road entirely into the bushes (all the while I had at least 3 bars of LTE on Verizon. Coverage and carrier were not the issue). That was the final straw. This app that used to be more helpful was now potentially putting my life (and the life of my grandmother and friend) at risk. I still refuse to use Apple Maps, and have joined Waze. If the glitches can be fixed I may use again, but overall I am very disappointed!
Routes are NO LONGER accurate!!
By Nwanyioma
I have been using google maps for 5+ years and I love it because it's very functional. However, as of this last update, the routes have been OFF. I drive to the Bronx from NJ everyday for work, which is about a 30 mile trip one way. I keep the app open with my route entered in case there is an accident and I need to quickly divert. There are tolls on my route, but I have the settings on "avoid tolls", so I only pay for the GWB bridge or HT tolls vs the parkway/freeway tolls if that makes sense. Normally, my route is about 30-32 miles depending on which route I choose. After this last update, my routes (with the same settings) are now 66 miles or 77 miles to work. WHAT? WHY? The route suggests I drive to Albany or Fishkill (upstate NY) just to get to the Bronx. Any one who lives in tristate knows this is not correct. I toggled my "avoid tolls" off and the routes were back to 30 miles, however, it directs me to drive through the parkway tolls, which I don't want to pay nor need to. Everything was fine until this last update. Now I am using WAZE because this app is unreliable. With "avoid tolls" turned on with WAZE, my normal route is back. Google maps has been VERY GLITCHY lately. Until it can be fixed, I'm sticking with the WAZE app.
Not very good or accurate
By Royal Montgomery
Google Maps is helpful, probably, when one is driving. It's not helpful for someone who has to take transit or walk. Transit often has changes/transfers - there are no actual walking directions available that are helpful. If you're walking the wrong way, the app doesn't stop you, just tells you to walk to {location}. Also, some bus stops are very near/across the street from one another and Google Maps has a hard time pinpointing that. That's the difference between going the wrong way in a strange place or arriving at your destination. I commute to work but Google Maps only shows one route instead of any route, no matter how I change the settings, so I never know when the bus comes. I know when the trolley comes, but it only runs twice an hour when I am out of work and being able to see any kind of alternate route would be nice. I've also noticed that we have a trolley line that runs all the way to South Hills Village, but Google Maps just tells you to get off the stop before that and walk for sixteen minutes. I know better, but a person new to the area may not. I just don't find it very helpful as someone who doesn't drive.
Better than iOS Maps
By susie107
I guess I didn't even realize the difference between this and the native apple map. I switched to iPhone last year and was used to pressing a map link and it opened right up in maps. Well, apple does that too...but when I needed it badly I had to come download google maps. I was stuck in a delivery parking lot of a huge hospital in an unfamiliar city that apparently had one address for the whole campus. Apple's map made me almost lose my mind- "Turn right then turn right! Go southwest then immediately go north then turn right! Turn left then turn right!" It was insanity. I finally broke down and googled what I needed which prompted me to download Google Maps...And I was immediately given correct directions and found my medical office in less than 5 minutes. Now every time I need directions I find Google Maps is the only one that's accurate. 4 stars because it turns me sideways sometimes and did have me turn right off of an exit just to make an immediate u-turn when it should have just told me to turn left from the jump. Still- it gets me there which is what I ultimately care about.
Almost perfect (almost)
By Gregory Lerner
For the vast majority of usage, this app has been flawless. The traffic is accurate, the routing is good, and the user interface is simple and easy to use. However, I have found some things to be quite annoying. For one, I have found that sometimes when I am in the far left lane on the highway, the app will think I am on the wrong side of the road causing it to constantly reroute me (this mostly happens in HOV lanes and high speed ezpass lanes). Another issue is that if I purposely choose a slower route because it is fewer miles the app will constantly tell me it found a faster route (I know there is a faster way, but I purposefully chose the longer timed route!) this is very frustrating, and on my last 2 hour drive it told me 5 times that there was a faster way and I had to take my hand off the wheel to cancel the change. Finally, my last complaint is that there aren't more alternate routes given. I'm lucky if the app gives me 3 options, whereas online you can drag the route to any road and it will find a route. Other than these issues though, the app is very well implemented.
Took me to the middle of nowhere 🤬
By Ginjeet
Let me start out by saying I hate google maps. Recently I had to go to a meeting out of town, almost 3 hrs. away. When it said I had arrived I was at a barn out in the middle of nowhere. I'm thinking that maybe I'm 10-15 minutes away and when I put it back in it tells me I'm over an hour away 🤬. It had taken me in the total opposite direction. Someone said maybe it said turn right and you turned left, but no it didn't do that and if that had been the case and I turned the wrong way it would have rerouted me back to where I needed to be. Yes I had the correct address in. If this had been winter and snowy it could have been deadly. Another time I was going to a meeting somewhere else and that was a little over 3 hours away. I knew most of the way, it was just going into the area where I had to get on the freeway that I wanted the help with but had it on from when I left my home so I didn't have to mess with it while driving. It kept trying to detour me off my route to what it thought was the fastest way even tho that wasn't the way I wanted or was going. The so called fastest route had a lot of switch back turns. I wanted the straight shot. It was only 25 minutes difference. IF I CHOOSE A ROUTE OVER A DIFFERENT ROUTE I HAVE A REASON. DON'T REROUTE ME!!!
So frustrating
By Ava stanley
This is a great map, it will show you where everything is, but's it's impossible to use on trips or custom maps. If you're looking for directions without a custom map and for only one destination, this map is for you. If you create your own maps, need to look up multiple destinations, or are on a trip, it's near impossible. First of all, I had my mom send me the link to our custom map. It send to my gmail, no problem. Then I'd click on the map, and it either wouldn't load, or take me to Safari. The Safari view would show the map, but decline to let you get directions unless you signed in. Okay. I signed in. Well, it took my back to my home address, and sent me on a infinite loop, going from clicking the link in my email, getting sent to safari, logging in, and losing the map. I had to redownload the app four times before it worked. Second of all, the map legend isn't interactive. I'm going to new york, and spent six hours working on a custom map, with a pin for every single place I wanted to go. i downloaded the app, only to find that in the map legend, you can't click on individual icons, forcing you to leave the map legend, and click on every single icon until it pops up. Very dissapointed.

Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court
Man violently bit his parter after she questioned the amount of time he spent in the pub, court told
Nigel Currie, 37, of Nelson, has been jailed for 10 months after admitting biting his partner and attacking two police officers who came to arrest him

Get the latest news from Cynon Valley straight to your inbox
A man has been jailed after biting his partner so hard she thought he had ripped out her flesh and then attacking police officers who came to arrest him.
Nigel Currie, 37, admitting assaulting Louise Thomas occasioning her actual bodily harm and two counts of assaulting a police officer after be refused to be cuffed.
Kayleigh Simmons, prosecuting at Merthyr Tydfil Crown Court, said Ms Thomas was at their home on July 25 with their three children when she phoned Currie asking when he was coming home from the pub.
She was outside with the children, who were playing in the pool, when Currie returned to the family home at Bryn Tinion, Mountain Ash, and joined in.

Initially, the mood was good but when she challenged him about the amount of time he spent at the pub he "went nuts".
He called her a "freak" before claiming that he had been sleeping with someone else for more than three years, telling her he didn't love her and wished she was dead.
"He bit her right breast and believed that he had bitten her with such force a lump of tissue would have come out," said Ms Simmons.
She managed to hit him across the head with an ornamental metal ball as he grabbed her hair but it didn't stop him and he punched her in the stomach and threw her downstairs by her hair.
She managed to flee to a neighbour's house with her three children but when police turned up in the early hours of the morning Currie was aggressive and violent and was smashing up the house.
He assaulted both officers as they tried to cuff him, punching out repeatedly despite bring sprayed three times with CS gas.
"He continued to behave in an extremely violent and aggressive manner," said Ms Simmons.
Currie, who was screaming obscenities, was eventually brought under control when he was hit with a police baton.
When interviewed, Currie, who has a history for violence arising from three court appearances for 10 offences, said he had little recollection of the incident and broke down in tears when shown photos of the injuries he had inflicted on his partner.
Stuart George, defending, called for any sentence of imprisonment to be suspended saying: "He understands what he did was very wrong but does not know why it occurred."
Judge Richard Twomlow jailed Currie, of St John's Lane, Nelson, for a total of 10 months and ordered him to pay a £100 victim surcharge.
He was also made the subject of an indefinite restraining order banning him from contacting Ms Thomas save through third parties for child contact, and not to go to the former matrimonial home.

Why Timbuktu?
The name and part of the soul of the first hostel in San Vito Lo Capo was born with the trip to the land that is ancestral linked with Sicily : Africa. Sicily is Africa and it always will be part of the African continental plate. Sicily shines today thanks to the 200 years of Arab domination history which has enriched this land with culture, agriculture like no one has done before or after.
Deeply linked to our Africans cousins today we dedicate this hostel to them, to us, to Sicily, to all those who dream about integration in the world. Everything started from a trip to Timbuktu, the most important city in the history of Mali. A cultural center, reacheable trough pilgrimages across the Sahara, filled with libraries , silence, sun, dust, this is Timbuktu. Built by people who believed in a better world, and that for hundreds of years has welcomed pilgrims from all over the continent without any racial discrimination.

Now I would like you to discover the beauties of San Vito lo Capo , telling you about my journey and listening to yours
