A particularly optimistic design firm in Dubai called Timelinks has proposed designs for the Ziggurat, a complete city to be layered inside of a massive pyramid that could serve as home for a million people at a time. Timelinks is currently seeking patents for a variety of technologies that would make such a building possible, including a three axis public transportation system that would run residents up, through and across the pyramid. They've also claimed that with a hybrid wind, solar and s

Aaron Sorkin has created gripping movies like A Few Good Men, and television shows like The West Wing. Now, he’s going to write a story about the creation of Facebook. Sony’s bankrolling the feature film, with Scott Rudin producing it. Here’s the thing. I’m worried that Sorkin is going to write a movie based largely on all the fawning stories that have already been written about the company’s founding, with his own crude spin. He thinks the Facebook cofounders started the site to “meet girls

LITTLE Green Footballs spots a mosque. And thinks it’s a scoop: Zombie: The Mosque in Denver’s Civic Center Zombie’s latest report is on the mosque that was constructed in Denver’s Civic Center Park, within sight of the capitol building. The mainstream media don’t think this is newsworthy. It’s only newsworthy if you re a Muslim looking for somewhere new to pray. But why else would it be newsworthy? Discuss. Source

It was big news this month when Hershey Co. announced that it was raising its wholesale candy prices by 11%. This is the second price jump for them this year, in January they raised prices by 13% for select products in their line as well. Most of this is due to increased cost across the board. Rising fuel prices in all sectors means that it costs more to buy energy to operate their factory candy kitchens, air condition their warehouses and drive trucks around. Add to that the biggest change,

Few things are more unsettling than hitting into a greenside bunker. If you have problems hitting out of greenside bunkers, you could probably cut a stroke or two from your golf handicap just by improving your bunker play. Unfortunately, weekend golfers almost never practice bunker shots. Most golf ranges don’t have practice bunkers. As a result, they lack the confidence needed to hit a good bunker shot under pressure. In bunker play confidence is half the battle. But building confidence isn’t

From most accounts that I’ve heard, Montana Gov. Brian Schweitzer gave an excellent speech last night. Unfortunately, I was airborne on the way to Denver and was unable to attend. Here is the full speech: Below, I’ll parse the majority of Schweitzer’s speech, picking out some of the good and the bad. There were plenty of high points, but there is also enough troubling language to give me pause before praising it wholesale. A generation later, we face a great new challenge, a world energy

Having worked in the architectural field for almost 22 years, I’ve gone from doing ink-on-mylar drawings hunched over a drafting table to spending my days on a computer putting together project drawings and specifications, all while having much of the information I need at my fingertips thanks to the internet. All but gone are the days of drawing up plans and running them through an old-fashioned blueprint machine with the special yellow printing paper, sucking in all those nice ammonia fumes.

Many vulnerable species are facing reduced numbers because the adaptations that have served them for thousands of years make them unable to survive small changes in temperature or precipitation.
