Will Jewel @ Buangkok ad CT Hub 2 Be a 1-Day Sell-Out Development?

Despite a drop in new home sales in April, LIV on Sophia, CT Hub 2 and Jewel @ Buangkok is set to launch soon. Will this be a 1-day sell-out event?

2013-05-24

SINGAPORE, May 24, 2013 (Press-News.org) After strong sales in March with new home sales hitting record high, April's sales volume appears muted. Developers sold 1,375 units in the month of April, less than half that of 2,793 units transacted in March. However, a total of 1,158 units were launched in April - 67% less than that launched in March with 3,489 units.

The slowdown in new launches could also be due to the absence of large condominium projects, which greatly contributed to the sales in March. According to Nicholas Mak of SLP International, a total of 12 projects were launched in April with the largest project at Sant Ritz.

Bestseller projects last month include Spazio @ Kovan, Novena Regency and Bartley Ridge.

Upcoming projects include KAP Residences with 142 units, Corals @ Keppel Bay with 366 units, LIV On Sophia with 64 units, Jewel @ Buangkok, CT Hub 2 and also Cassia Edge.

Total monthly sales volume is expected to be between 1,500 and 2,000 units with total new home sales estimated to be 5,000 to 6,000 units in 2nd quarter of 2013.

Meanwhile, Executive Condominium (EC) also saw a strong response, with more than 70% of Twin Fountains sold in just less than a week since the launch on 11 May 2013. All the large units that include the dual keys were also snapped up. 39% of the buyers are first-time buyers while the balance are second-time buyers. Prices range between 660 to 795psf.

Another 2 executive condos are also in the pipeline in woodlands that include Forestville and another site that is beside Twin Fountain.

Recently strong new home sales depleted most of developers' land banks. To meet the demand, the government set out to launch 5 new residential sites in May that will yield a total of about 2,725 units. The 5 sites include Tampines Avenue 10, Toa Payoh Lorong 6, Prince Charles Crescent, Siglap Road and Geylang East Avenue 1.

Book Review from Prompt Proofing: The Virgin Cure by Ami McKay

2013-05-24

The Virgin Cure tells the story of Moth, a 12-year old girl fighting for an escape from the slum existence she was born into. The novel paints a gritty and often shocking picture of life in the poorest parts of Manhattan in the 1870s. There are many factual historic notes included in the novel that make disturbing reading to a twenty-first century audience. While Moth is an intriguing and engaging character, considerably wiser than her years would suggest, it is Dr Sadie - ultimately her saviour - who provides a strong female role model. Interestingly, McKay initially ...

Pay attention: How we focus and concentrate

2013-05-23

Publishing in Neuron, the team reveal the interplay of brain chemicals which help us pay attention in work funded by the Wellcome Trust and BBSRC. By changing the way neurons respond to external stimuli we improve our perceptual abilities. While these changes can affect the strength of a neuronal response, they can also affect the fidelity of that response. Lead author Alex Thiele, Professor of Visual Neuroscience explains: "When you communicate with others, you can make yourself better heard by speaking louder or by speaking more clearly. Neurons appear to do similar ...

NASA's SDO observes another mid-level solar flare

2013-05-23

An image, captured at 11:06 a.m. EDT on May 22, 2013, from the ESA/NASA Solar Heliospheric Observatory shows the conjunction of two coronal mass ejections streaming away from the sun. This image is what's known as a coronagraph, in which the light of the sun is blocked in order to make its dimmer atmosphere, the corona, visible. The M7-class flare was also associated with a coronal mass ejection or CME, another solar phenomenon that can send billions of tons of particles into space. While this CME was not Earth-directed, it has combined with an earlier CME, and the flank ...

University of Wisconsin chemists find new compounds to curb staph infection

2013-05-23

MADISON, Wis. – In an age when microbial pathogens are growing increasingly resistant to the conventional antibiotics used to tamp down infection, a team of Wisconsin scientists has synthesized a potent new class of compounds capable of curbing the bacteria that cause staph infections. Writing online in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, a group led by University of Wisconsin-Madison chemistry Professor Helen Blackwell describes agents that effectively interfere with the "quorum sensing" behavior of Staphylococcus aureus, a bacterium at the root of a host of ...

Depression linked to telomere enzyme, aging, chronic disease

2013-05-23

The first symptoms of major depression may be behavioral, but the common mental illness is based in biology — and not limited to the brain. In recent years some studies have linked major, long-term depression with life-threatening chronic disease and with earlier death, even after lifestyle risk factors have been taken into account. Now a research team led by Owen Wolkowitz, MD, professor of psychiatry at UC San Francisco, has found that within cells of the immune system, activity of an enzyme called telomerase is greater, on average, in untreated individuals with major ...

Study shows people can be trained to be more compassionate

2013-05-23

MADISON, Wis. – Until now, little was scientifically known about the human potential to cultivate compassion — the emotional state of caring for people who are suffering in a way that motivates altruistic behavior. A new study by researchers at the Center for Investigating Healthy Minds at the Waisman Center of the University of Wisconsin–Madison shows that adults can be trained to be more compassionate. The report, recently published online in the journal Psychological Science, is the first to investigate whether training adults in compassion can result in greater altruistic ...

New discovery in fight against deadly meningococcal disease

2013-05-23

"Neisseria meningitidis is an important human pathogen that can cause rapidly progressing, life threatening meningitis and meningococcal sepsis in humans," Professor Jennings said. "Until now we have not known how it attaches to the human host. It has been a long-standing mystery how it attaches to the airway to colonise" People can be carriers of the bug and not get any symptoms, while some people progress to invasive disease. To understand why, we need to know the detail of how the bacterium colonises the airway. Now that the pathway has been identified we can study ...

New screening approach uncovers potential alternative drug therapies for neuroblastoma

2013-05-23

Nearly two-thirds of patients with high-risk neuroblastoma —a common tumor that forms in the nerve cells of children—cannot be cured using tumor-killing cancer drugs. A study published by Cell Press in the May 23 issue of Chemistry & Biology reveals a new genomic approach to screen for compounds that could inhibit tumor growth by causing cancer cells to differentiate, or convert from immature cells to more specialized cell types. Using this screening method, the researchers identified a compound that causes neuroblastoma cells to differentiate, uncovering a promising new ...

White tiger mystery solved

2013-05-23

White tigers today are only seen in zoos, but they belong in nature, say researchers reporting new evidence about what makes those tigers white. Their spectacular white coats are produced by a single change in a known pigment gene, according to the study, appearing on May 23 in Current Biology, a Cell Press publication. "The white tiger represents part of the natural genetic diversity of the tiger that is worth conserving, but is now seen only in captivity," says Shu-Jin Luo of China's Peking University. Luo, Xiao Xu, Ruiqiang Li, and their colleagues advocate a proper ...
