The Cardboard Cops: @ Bangalore !!!

Instead of state-of-the-art speed cameras and number plate recognition devices, Bangalore’s police chiefs opted to swell their ranks with recruits who work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, without breaks, bribes or even a salary. The city sees two road deaths every day and officials hopes motorists will be fooled into slowing down after seeing the fake officers !!!!

Apple Imagines An iPhone That’s All Glass And All Screen, All The Way Around !!!
Apple just published a patent that imagines what an iPhone would look like if the whole phone body were a wraparound screen.
Here’s what Apple’s drawing looks like, via Patently Apple:
Patently Apple’s summary of Apple’s patent filing:
Today’s invention focuses on the flexible wraparound display that could be fashioned in aluminum, aluminum and glass or a fully transparent design. This future iPhone design won’t have any physical buttons so controlling the audio on the iPhone will simply require you to hover your hand over the side of the display to temporarily illustrate the controls. The new design could also produce 3D visuals through its unique dual display design. This is certainly one of Apple’s hottest inventions of the year.
Neat, right?
OK, but keep something in mind.
Apple files all kinds of patents for gadgets and technologies that never actually see the light of day. Apple does this to keep its options open. The rule is: think of an idea? Patent it. Before Samsung does.
So, the image above could be a preview of the iPhone 6 or iPhone 7 – or it could be a total red herring.

Perfectly Timed Self–Portraits Of a Japanese Girl Artist !!!
TAKING hanging around to a whole new level, for the last two years Tokyo-photographer Natsumi Hayashi has snapped a daily self-portrait of herself going aerial.
Armed with her tripod and Canon camera on self-timer, Hayashi ignores the confused stares of baffled onlookers to leap into the air seconds after she presses her shutter button.
The remarkable results make it appear as if she spends her days permanently floating around Tokyo, defying the laws of gravity.
“To achieve the look of levitation it’s crucial that you don’t appear to be jumping,” she says.
“That means a controlled facial expression and lack of movement. It should look like a moment frozen in time, not mid-jump.”

A Mom Buys A Multi Million Dollar Apartment in Manhatten For Her Child !!!!

MOST toddlers are given soft toys or parties to celebrate their milestones. Others get multi-million-dollar apartments in Manhattan.
A woman in China has done just that, buying a $6.5 million apartment at the Uber-luxury building One57 in Manhattan for her daughter, the International Business Times reports.
The woman’s daughter will be in wealthy company as the building, which will be finished next year, will also be the future home to several international billionaires.
According to the New York Times, the billionaire buyers include at least two others from China, a Canadian, a Nigerian and a Briton, as well as several wealthy Americans.
The building’s developers said that a handful of buyers were “significant Forbes billionaires”.
Kevin Brown, senior vice president for Sotheby’s International Realty, told China’s state-run news channel CCTV News this week that he was touring Manhattan with the mother when he asked her why she wanted to buy.
“She said that it had to do with her daughter, who was either going to go to Columbia or NYU, maybe Harvard, and so she needed to be in the centre of the city, and that was the reason why she was picking this one particular apartment,” he said.
“I said, ‘How old is your daughter?’ And she said, ‘Well, she’s two.’ And I was just shocked.”
The building previously made headlines in New York during Superstorm Sandy when a crane dangled from the roof due to strong winds.
Formerly known as Carnegie 57, One57 is a 90-storey skyscraper at 157 West 57th Street.

Steve Jobs On His First Day at Apple !!!!

Source: news.com.au
STEVE Jobs didn’t always wear his signature black skivvy. In fact, newly found photos showed he wore purple on his first day at work. Well kind of.
A former Apple employee recently discovered a set of photos of Steve Jobs taken on the first day of his return to the company.
Jobs had been fired from Apple in 1985 after allegedly organising a “Coup d’état” of the Apple board. He was invited back to the company more than a decade later in 1996.
Former Mac OS Evangelist Tim Holmes had been working late that night, and was invited by his boss to attend a “Town Hall” meeting which was usually for things like company announcements.
However, “it was clearly not a company meeting,” Holmes wrote on his Flickr account.

Holmes said he called his wife and told her to meet him there. “We had no idea what was about to happen.”
You can guess what happened next. Apple was about to introduce Jobs as the de-facto chief. (Then CEO, Gil Amelio would be ousted within a year).
The photos were taken with one of Apple’s first cameras, the Apple QuickTake. It was a camera Jobs himself would kill within the year, and probably for good reason. The colours were all wrong.
Holmes emphasized that Jobs was wearing a black jacket “in real life”, as opposed to the bright purple it appears to be in the photo.
“The colours are way off due to the poor quality of digital cameras in 1996,” Holmes explained.
