Super Sexy Roll

Super Sexy Roll

Say hello to the Rollerphone concept! At first glance it’s merely a wrist band that projects time, much like the Alessi Concept we saw earlier, but then you realize it’s actually a phone with a retractable transparent screen at the base. How high-tech! It features perfect ergonomics and anthropometry in design thanks to customization – meaning the screen unfurls only to the tip of your fingers, so basically it give you a good fit between the ear and the mouth.

Besides the obvious features found in the latest cellphones, Rollerphone boasts of an enviable media centre. You can watch videos, chat online, play games, read books and listen to music. It’s going to be hard parting with a phone like this, who wouldn’t want their entire digital world on their wrist!

Foreign workers help to create more good jobs for Singaporeans: PM

By Millet Enriquez, Chris Howells | Posted: 21 April 2011 1146 hrs



SINGAPORE: Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong said that by allowing the controlled entry of foreign workers, Singapore has attracted one of the largest investments in the country and created more jobs for Singaporeans.

Mr Lee said this during a speech at the opening of chipmakers Intel and Micron's joint venture manufacturing plant IM Flash Singapore Nand Flash Wafer Fab on Thursday.

The 300 millimetre NAND facility is a first in Singapore and is one of the largest investments at US$3 billion.

The plant manufactures NAND flash memory chips using the 25 nanometre process technology that are used in smartphones and tablets.

Mr Lee said it is expected to bring significant spinoffs to supporting industries.

Currently, IM Flash Singapore employs 1,200 workers of which six in 10 are Singaporeans and permanent residents (PRs), while four in 10 are foreigners

"Without the foreign workers, we would not have attracted this US$3 billion investment, and Intel and Micron would have built its wafer fab elsewhere," PM Lee said.

"But by allowing in a controlled number of foreign workers, far from disadvantaging Singa porean workers, we have created more good jobs for Singaporeans," he continued.

"For every one foreign worker, we have created 1.5 local jobs in this project," PM Lee said.

So far, Singaporeans and PRs take up about two-thirds of the managerial and professional positions, while two-thirds of technician and manufacturing jobs are done by the foreigners.

The opening of the facility comes as demand for consumer electronics is increasing amid better economic conditions globally.

The construction of the facility was put on hold in 2008 as consumer sentiment collapsed in the wake of the financial crisis.

It now aims to be at full production levels later in 2011.

Save Baglee, vice president and director of NAND manufacturing and operations at Intel said, "The IM Flash joint venture has been able to create tremendous momentum and industry leading manufacturing capabilities. We look forward to adding IM Flash Singapore to our global manufacturing network."

Dodge Tomahawk Bike

Dodge Tomahawk Bike
Author: Admin Filed under: TechnologyDate: Feb 12,2008

This is 8200cc Monster of a Bike. Dodge Tomahawk Bike is the fastest and the most powerful motorcycle in the world. It’s like riding a 2-wheeled Train Engine. Descriptions and pictures of the Dodge Tomahawk bike are showed below

Toyota i-Real Concept is a three-wheeler personal mobility vehicle with variable wheelbase and height layout.

According to Toyota, the i-REAL represents "a step toward commercialization in the near future" for this kind of products.

The i-REAL is the latest evolution of the Japanese automaker’s research in the personal mobility vehicles field. It follows the PM, i-unit and i-Swing concept vehicles.

The i-REAL has a three wheels layout (two at the front and one at the back).

In low-speed mode, the shortened wheelbase allows it to maneuver naturally among pedestrians at similar eyesight height without taking up a large

amount of space.

In high-speed mode the wheelbase lengthens to provide a lower center of gravity and

better driving performance.

The safe handling – both to the driver and those around the vehicle – is ensured by employing perimeter

monitoring sensors to detect when a collision with a person or object is imminent and alerts the driver by

emitting a noise and vibrating. At the same time, it alerts people around it of its movements through the

use of light and sound.
