Daniel Rybakken?s Daylight Comes Sideways Animated LED Ambient Wall Light [
2008-05-01 14:30:00 It?s been a while since we featured any form of lighting here on TFTS but the moment we came across this fascinating concept from Norwegian designer Daniel Rybakken, known simply as ?Daylight Comes Sideways?, which uses a series of dimmable LEDs to not only create false daylight (an artificial window if you will) but that also ads artificial shadows allowing for animated details, such as a cloud passing by or a tree swaying in the wind, we just knew we had to feature it here.

The Other Side of Daylight
2008-04-28 08:14:00 It is 2pm here in Malaysia and I have been awake more than 20 hours already. I actually planned to go to bed early last night but then hubby needed to go to the office and he wondered if I wanted to accompany him. Being the good wife I am, I said ok and so that was where we were till this morning around 9am. After hubby's partner arrive, we had breakfast then proceeded home to catch some zzz.Then at around 11am, we got a call from my MIL saying that one of my SIL was admitted to the hospital. Seeing how we were still fresh after the breakfast and the morning shower, we thought, ok let's go visit SIL and see how she is. We could also go and collect the luxury watches that my FIL wanted us to pick up for him.So guess where I am right now??I am again at the office!! Lolzz!!...We are going for lunch soon and I figure if I get tired in a short while, I'll just sleep in my room here.Cheerio...

Daylight Saving
2008-04-06 08:20:00 Oh no, it's 6.15pm and it's DARK. Bethany and Michael are playing Lego and I am trying to figure out what I should do. Normally I would have a few more hours to potter around in the garden or for us all to go for a walk as a family....but oh no, god damn you daylight saving hours, the lights are on and the curtains are closed. However this year NZ experienced their first year of extended hours with us enjoying an extra 3 weeks longer in the sunshine evenings. Considering here in NZ we have the same amount of daylight saving months it still feels like it's a million times longer than it ever was in the UK. We have really had summer here since early November and it's been magical. The weather has changed so dramatically though over the last few days really coming into perfect line with the new hours. Outside now it's now pouring with rain (despite it still being 16 degrees) and it's the perfect staying inside, listening to soft music and lighting candles type scenario - that rea...
Internet Sharks - Domain Registration or Daylight Robbery
2008-04-06 00:00:00 A couple of years back I took advantage of an introductory offer on a .co.uk TLD domain name. I can't remember the exact deal, but at the time it was something like £2 for a 2 year registration. At the time, that was cheaper than my current registrar which worked out at about £1.99 per year, so £2 for 2 years wasn't to be scoffed at (especially when you are registering 50 or so .co.uk's a month). The first of them is nearing renewal and so the 60 day renewal warning turned up in my inbox, and as I expected they increased their renewal price to £9.99 a year. I'd already started the transfer to my current registrar so it wasn't a problem. As I said, I was expecting the hike, and I only registered with them to take advantage of saving a packet. What I didn't expect was an email from Nominet. Nominet is the Internet Registry for ALL .uk TLD's. How Domain Registration Works The next part is to give you a basic understanding of how domain name re...

TunesDay: daylight kissing night
2008-03-25 18:34:00 My old friend Adam Marsland has just released Daylight Kissing Night: Adam Marsland’s Greatest Hits, a greatest hits collection that draws from the best of both his solo and Cockeyed Ghost efforts, and boy howdy, am I jacked. If you don’t already know Adam’s music, let’s go ahead and get the triangulation out of the way. He’s kinda like a modern-day cross between Elton John, Brian Wilson, KISS and Todd Rundgren, with a dash of Elvis Costello, Raspberries, Big Star and Foo Fighters sprinkled in for good measure. And now, for my favorite Adam Marsland moment. A few years back he was playing a solo show at a little place up in the Denver Highlands neighborhood. For his first set he played mostly his own tunes, and when he came back out for the second set he announced that we were going to play Stump the Band. People began shouting out songs, and one after another Adam nailed them. I decided to have a little fun, as I’m wont to do after a couple of fi...

Why do we have Daylight Saving Time?
2008-03-10 18:54:00 The main purpose of Daylight Saving Time (called "Summer Time" in many places in the world) is to make better use of daylight. We change our clocks during the summer months to move an hour of daylight from the morning to the evening.OS9USERDoes anyone know what time it is ? :)
railing against the daylight (where's my savings?)
2008-03-10 16:27:00 The time change isn't agreeing with me. No 'I' statements here; it's all the clock's fault.I'll own Friday's late night with the kids, post-hockey game that threw their tender bodies into chaos. They slept in Saturday, just in time for the springing forward and further sleeping in on Sunday.See the pattern? Even my Human Alarm Clock is struggling; Greg is lugging himself out of bed around 4:30 or 5 which by my calculations means he is working in the middle of the night now.And paying $3.67 to fill the tank before he drives all over our little corner of the world.(I feel a case of the Mondays coming on.)My trusty CBS News Sunday Morning reassured me that our family needs more sleep and I'm on board, epecially for Greg's sake, if I could figure out how to pull it off. How do you manage, dear readers?

Daylight Savings...
2008-03-10 06:28:00 The only place where 3 AM follows 1:59 AM is Daylight Savings (DS) - a concept followed by US, parts of Europe and Australia. The logic behind DST is that people use natural light to a greater extent and hence power consumption is reduced.But this concept never impressed me till date not just because it is so unnatural but also because of the fact that thousands of person hours are being wasted across the globe to maintain software and correct any defects due to this sudden 'drift' in time. IT companies don't mind getting paid for monitoring their client's software and the impacts if any due to DST changes, but why should such a huge amount of time and money be wasted on a crap concept?!I accept that humans can control their lifestyle and their social practices but meddling with nature and conventions is not even close to impressive. If you prefer using a lot of natural light, wake up an hour early and come to office by 7 instead of 8. Why does it need moving the hour hand back ...

As far as I know DST or daylight saving time was imposed by many countries including US and the Philippines to conserve energy and I as far as I can remember, in the Philippines we use DST during energy crisis sometime on summer during Aquino or Ramos regime. I can't really remember anymore. Well, through this gadget bloggers and "link baiters" will have at least a target keyword to optimize for their page to increase it's traffic.

Daylight savings yet again steals my sleep
2008-03-09 22:21:00 People who know me may or may not have heard me give my little rant on springing forward or falling back with our clocks. I will save everyone's ears from hearing the whole thing but the point of it is, DST has really no purpose and should be done away with. The popular reasoning for it lately has been to save on energy but a recent study done by a professor of environmental economics at U.C. Santa Barbara has said it might actually cost us more when we reset our clocks... Sorry it is just one of those things that make me tick. :pIt is also slightly irritating because since we had concerts until late last night and also had some friends spend the night we did not get to bed exactly early if you know what I mean. :D That extra hour comes in handy....Nevertheless, I fought off Sleepy Rufus in time to get ready and arrive on time at church where we sang a song that I love, "There Is A Higher Throne"There is a higher throne Than all this world has known Where faithful ones from every t...

TELEVISION HAS BIGGEST EFFECT ON DAYLIGHT TIME ADJUSTMENT
2008-03-08 14:50:00 Where you live helps determine your sleep scheduleResearch on the effects of 'spring ahead' across the country shows that television, not the sun, determines sleep schedule.Most of the nation is once again readying itself for losing an hour of sleep with the arrival of Daylight Saving Time. This is a “shock” not only to those of us who value our sleep, but also (very temporarily) to all levels of the economy, from the individual to the world.In a forthcoming article for the Journal of Labor Economics, researchers look at the brief fight between American’s natural timing cues -- the circadian rhythms determined by the sun -- and the man-made cues brought on within the last century, mainly by the creation of time zones and the television broadcast schedule.In this relatively brief time, they find, the markers for how we structure our day have been dramatically altered.How did these man-made cues come about? Daylight Saving Time has its roots in the Standard Time Act of 1918; t...

Daylight Savings Time is not for saving energy
2008-03-08 02:57:00 Daylight Saving Time was used during WWI, WWII and the 1970’s oil crisis to reduce the use of oil. It worked then, but times have changed. The energy load from air conditioners has grown to be a bigger part of the national energy pie. A reduction in energy used for lighting is more that offset by an increase in air conditioning usage when we shift our clocks to DST. When the recent extension of Daylight Saving Time was proposed, lawmakers noted; energy savings, less crime, fewer traffic fatalities, more recreation time and increased economic activity with the extra sunlight in the evening. A study of electric bills in Southern Indiana showed electric usage went up when daylight savings time was used in parts of the state where it had not been used before. It is the Economy Stupid People really do buy more goods after work when they are given more daylight to shop in. Industries that rely on evening activity such as golf and the barbecue industry benefit from daylight savings ...

Daylight Savings Time: Turn Clocks Ahead ? March 9
2008-03-07 00:00:00 Starting in 2007, daylight time begins in the United States on the second Sunday in March and ends on the first Sunday in November. On the second Sunday in March, clocks are set ahead one hour at 2:00 a.m. local standard time, which becomes 3:00 a.m. local daylight time.
