Located just a short walk from University District's Central Park and its adjacent collection of restaurants and retail (Save-On Foods, Village Ice Cream, Fergus and Bix, Una Pizza and on the list goes), Magna, built and designed by Jayman Built and inspired by the magna cum laude distinction for university degrees, is a collection of 82 one- and two-bedroom homes and six penthouse-style homes spread across two six-storey buildings. There is an internal central courtyard that features infinity-style water features, pergolas and seating. Homes range from 844 square feet to almost 2,600 sq. ft., and all have outstanding outdoor terraces.

Monica and Bruce purchased the Amelia, a one-bedroom plus den model with 977 sq. ft. of living space and a large outdoor terrace that overlooks both the surrounding Northwest Commons Park and the interior courtyard with its water features. The couple says it's the perfect amount of space for them.

'In the house that we are in now, which is over 2,000 square feet, we essentially live in our kitchen and family room and sleep in the bedroom. That's it. We don't use the rest of the house,' says Bruce.

The terrace was a non-negotiable design feature and the couple wanted a floor plan that had the terrace flowing from the kitchen.

Amid BRS family feud, Kavitha's Hyderabad rail roko call sets up a litmus test
K Kavitha, Bharat Rashtra Samithi leader and daughter of Telangana's former chief minister K Chandrashekar Rao, is set to face a political litmus test on July 17. Amid an unabating feud with her brother and the party's working president, K T Rama Rao, Kavitha has called a rail roko in Hyderabad on that day to demand the implementation of 42% reservation for Backward Classes (BC) in local body elections. She has a formidable ally in BC leader R Krishnaiah, a BJP Rajya Sabha MP. Sources close to Krishnaiah said, 'K Kavitha was the first to reach out from her party to seek a meeting. She convinced (Krishnaiah) to give her a listen even though they are from two different parties.' Kavitha is learnt to have reminded Krishnaiah of the support he gave the BRS during the agitation for Telangana's statehood. Sources close to Kavitha said she is of the opinion that the BRS should regain its stature as a party that starts an agitation whenever there is a need for it. Her brother, widely known as KTR, however, prefers to be in 'governance mode', the sources said. In a media briefing earlier this month, Kavitha had said, 'Isn't BC reservation a matter that the BRS leadership is concerned with? From Telangana Jagruthi, we plan to take up agitation for the BCs.' While Kavitha has won part of the battle with Krishnaiah's support, her stature in Telangana politics will be defined by the success of her rail roko call, which brings up memories of the agitation that the BRS, led by her father KCR, had taken up for the cause of a Telangana state between 2009 and 2014. During this time, the BRS was known as a party born of a people's movement. 'We hope Kavitha can resurrect a similar sentiment among people. She is focusing on a major voting bloc, the Backward Classes,' said a leader close to her. According to a survey conducted by the state government, BCs account for at least 56% of Telangana's population. However, 42% reservation for the BC would breach the 50% reservation cap set by the Supreme Court and would need the Centre's nod for implementation. The Congress government in Telangana, under Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy, had passed a Bill recommending implementation of 42% reservation for BCs in education, employment and local body elections in the state. While this Bill got the assent of the Governor, it is pending approval at the President's office. BRS's protest is therefore a nudge to the Centre to implement 42% BC reservations, sources close to Kavitha said. 'Other than passing the Bill and visiting Delhi to meet the Congress High Command, Revanth Reddy has not done much to convince the Centre to allow the breach of the 50% reservation cap,' a BRS source said. The rail roko will also bring to the fore the leaders who support Kavitha. 'Clearly, there is a division in the BRS leadership from the top. We need to see how many leaders of the BRS come out in support of the rail roko and how many want to work with Kavitha on the ground,' a BRS leader said.

Retiree dodges scam by choosing to cook dinner
Compiled by BENJAMIN LEE, ALLISON LAI and R. ARAVINTHAN A RETIREE in Hangzhou, China, narrowly avoided losing 1.66 million yuan (RM980,000) – by simply deciding to cook dinner. The woman, known by her surname Xu, in her 60s, received a call from someone claiming to be from the 'China UnionPay Association', warning her of fraudulent charges. Surprisingly, Xu fell for it, despite this being a common scam tactic, as reported by Nanyang Siang Pau. The scammer made several calls, guiding her to download an app, add a contact and enable video calls. They also instructed her to transfer 1.66 million yuan from another account into her savings. During this process, her SMS verification code was even leaked. But just before making the final transfer, Xu decided to cook dinner. It was past 5pm and she told the scammer: 'I need to cook now. This isn't urgent, I'll handle it later.' The scammer had no choice but to wait. Meanwhile, her bank had alerted local police to the potential fraud. After failing to reach Xu, officers rushed to her home. Their timely intervention prevented the transfer. > A high school student in Taipei, Taiwan, was detained for hacking an EasyCard, a contactless payment card used for transport and shopping. He used an C (wireless technology) reader-writer to repeatedly add value to the card for free, China Press reported. This incident marks the first known financial loss for EasyCard Corporation. Police solved the case within two months of receiving a report. The student, despite not being from an electronics background, converted the free top-ups into cash at Metro ticket machines and used the card as an ATM. The above articles are compiled from the vernacular newspapers (Bahasa Malaysia, Chinese and Tamil dailies). As such, stories are grouped according to the respective language/medium.
