The rotate skyscrapers, which are planned worldwide, have floors which rotate independently to create a building that constantly changes shape. (June 24)Is it the skyscraper of the future? Or just a "pie in the sky" idea? Italian architect David Fisher unveiled in New York the design for what he's calling the world's first "building in motion." It's an 80-story residential tower with revolving floors, ostensibly set for construction in Dubai this fall. ((David Fisher, Architect)) "It's the first building that is dynamic, changing its' shape. You can adjust the shape any given moment." Fisher says he is also slated to build one of the "dynamic" buildings in Moscow, and, he hopes, New York City. He says the buildings also double as power generators: wind turbines on every floor will provide power. "Wind has a very negative affect on skyscrapers we all know. So I say 'why do we want to fight the wind?' Why don't we use the wind, to our own benefit? The Dubai condos are going for three-thousand dollars a square foot. Lifts will allow penthouse residents to park their cars right in their apartments. Fisher says the building parts will be prefabricated in a factory in Italy then assembled at the final location. The architect says he'd like to have the Dubai building ready to live in by 2010. Ted Shaffrey, The Associated Press, New York

StrangePlans for First Rotating Skyscraper UnveiledPlans for First Rotating Skyscraper UnveiledThe Associated PressAn Italian architect said he is poised to start construction on a new skyscraper in Dubai that will be "the world's first building in motion,'' an 80-story tower with revolving floors that give it an ever-shifting shape. (June 25)It may look like something out of a science fiction movie....But Italian architect David Fisher showed up in New York Tuesday, saying that he was poised to build the world's first moving building in Dubai. SOT: David Fisher, Architect and Creator of Dynamic Tower: "First of all, it's the first building that is being, that is dynamic, changing the shape. You can adjust the shape the way you like every given moment.The model being pitched is an 80-story skyscraper with revolving floors ... That would provide residents with a constantly changing view of the Persian Gulf.A few apartments that would take up entire floors would be able to spin on command ---while the rest of the building rotated in patterns that could be altered over time.SOT Fisher: It's designed by life, shaped by time.But movement isn't the only unique feature about this building --- Designers say they plan to build it all in a factory in Italy.... When its complete, they'll ship the structure to Dubai...where they hope it will be ready for offices and residents by 2010.And for those of you worried about getting dizzy?....Fisher says not to worry....he says the rotations will be slow enough that they won't be noticed. ___ ___, The Associated Press.

iPhone OpenGL Demo - Rotating Textured 3D Cube A demo application I wrote (not from scratch - see Acknowledge section), compiled as native application using toolchain under cygwin and ran on iPhone 1.1.2 OOB More details on this can be found on my blog: http://andreicostin.com Perhaps I will add the binary with some instructions how to install/use it with your own texture in raw format. This is just a demo to satisfy my curiosity about OpenGL ES 1.1 on iPhone.

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope is serving as an interplanetary weather satellite for studying the climate on Earth's neighboring worlds, Mars and Venus. To the surprise of researchers, Hubble is showing that the Martian climate has changed considerably since the unmanned Viking spacecraft visited Mars in the mid-1970s, which was the last time astronomers got a close-up look at weather on the Red Planet for more than just a few months. Hubble images of fleecy clouds, and spectroscopic detection of an ozone abundance in Mars' atmosphere, all indicate that the planet is cooler, clearer and drier than a couple of decades ago. In striking contrast, Hubble's spectroscopic observations of Venus show that the atmosphere continues to recover from an intense bout of sulfuric "acid rain" triggered by the suspected eruption of a volcano in the late 1970s. This is similar to what happens on Earth when sulfur dioxide emissions from coal power plants are broken apart in the atmosphere to make acid rain. On Venus, this effect takes place on a planetary scale. Although the close-up visits by numerous unmanned spacecraft provided brief snapshot glimpses of weather on these planets, the long-term coverage offered by Hubble has never before been possible. Knowledge about the weather is critical to planning future missions to these worlds. In the case of Mars, being able to predict the weather will be critical prior to human exploration and, perhaps eventually, colonization. Studying conditions on Mars and Venus might also lead to a better understanding of Earth's weather system. Apparently, processes that occurred early in the solar system's history sent terrestrial planets along very different evolutionary paths. The neighboring planets are grand natural laboratories for testing computer models that will lead to a general theory of the behavior of planetary atmospheres.

The Begane Rotating Percusssion Handgun is the first weapon concept of the 21st Century. The begane is an exceptional firearm that is aimed at reducing the high firearm accident rate among adults and especially children, Begane is considered by experts as the World Safest Weapon. Begane was considered the World Invention of 2004 in Geneva, Switzerland. Begane is the first model of a new weapon category, named and patented as the "Rotating Percussion Handgun" and is considered the World Safest Firearm; it has a very low accident risk if compared with all the existing weapon concepts such as the pistols, rifles and any other firearm that use traditional shooting trigger systems. Begane is a special Non-Lethal firearm which also has various defence and safety mechanisms that offer a high level of effective protection. "BEGANE", was created and developed with the objective of reducing firearm accidents, it is also an excellent support for law enforcement and military applications. Begane is a non-lethal, small caliber, civil system for domestic defense, a way of defense for family protection that provides a solution to an ongoing search for a more effective and secure weapon concept.
