In their induction powered lamp, the closer the lamp gets to the induction the brighter the lamp becomes. So naturally, as you work, sleep, read near such a flexible lamp, you can just bring it closer or not to you to receive more or less light intensity. Tesla would be proud!Video Posted by Cati Vaucelle @ Architectradure

Synchronized Floating popup Form
2009-02-27 17:52:00 This Form is designed specifically for inquiry purposes (not for Data Entry). The Source Data Table has several fields and the information in them can be categorized into different groups for viewing. For example, the Employees Form, in Northwind.mdb sample database, has been divided into two parts, viz. Company Information and Personal Information. The Company Info part is designed on the first Page of a Tab Control and the second part Personal Info category of fields are placed on second page of the Tab Control and stays hidden till it receives a click on the second page of the Tab Control, to bring the data into view. Let us assume that the Company Info is the most frequently viewed or updated information and it is kept in full view and Personal Info kept behind because it is not so often viewed or updated. We will design them differently with an interesting trick involving two separate stand alone Forms without linking them as Main Form and Sub-Form. Company Info on one F...

Strawberry & Vanilla Floating Islands
2009-02-02 07:05:00 It had been a while since I had the night off to bake something just for us. No book recipe to test, no challenge, no order or request. Just for us. In moments like this I tend to gravitate towards childhood memories and desserts I learned to make with my mother and grandmother. Simple desserts made so often that I bake them from memories with only the guidelines they used to whisper as I was standing on the little step stool next to the kitchen counter. It always amazes me how clearly I can still hear my grandmother's voice every time I make Floating Islands for example.Many years after her passing, Mamie Paulette is still here as I separate the eggs and mix them with sugar to make those lovely clouds of meringues. Everytime I cut through a vanilla bean I respectfully scrape every bean to the last one "pour ne pas gaspiller" (not to waste) and put the pods in small jars of sugar to flavor it. Whenever we would make creme brulees, we would have floating islands or "iles flottantes"...

Free-Floating Anxiety and a good relaxation technique.
2008-11-25 23:37:00 Anxiety is often classed as "free floating", that is to say it has no recognisable cause or trigger. Often this kind of anxiety, especially when it has been present for some time, is more irritating than worrying. It seems to be almost in the background, a little niggle that stops you from relaxing fully, perhaps a slight difficulty breathing or a tightness in the neck, throat or other muscles. Sometimes this free floating anxiety can manifest as fidgeting, a chronic cough or other physical symptoms or other things like insomnia. Of course free floating anxiety is not always just an irritant, it can for some people be a deeply worrying and disabling occurrence, leading to panic attacks or sever bouts of anxiety and stress. Either way, you can not avoid this kind of anxiety because it is either always there or creeps up on you suddenly and without warning and this is perhaps what leads some people to self-medicate alcohol or non-prescription and illegal (recreational) d...

The Floating House By Confused-Direction
2008-11-11 20:42:00 The Floating House (or Das Schwimmhaus) may, with its prefab style set aboard a floating platform as if a cabin, seem like a confused direction, but, in fact, this German-designed and German-moored home is making good use of urban density and sprirally living costs for its owners. Combining the dual experiences of Germany design company Confused-Direction's Flo Florian (interior design) and Sascha Akkermann (master carpentry,) The Floating House fulfils the increasingly modern craving for a new type of existential habitat, and one which works with our pocket alongside the planet. Sourcing a local workforce committed to sustainability and re-usability, Florian and Akkermann have created a home which is not only eco-friendly in regards to building materials, but also in allowing the inhabitants a grassed-roof garden area. Financially speaking, this kind of home makes sense particularly for those on a quest for uber-contemporary living on a budget as a recent Grand Desig...

Lilypad - A Floating Ecopolis.
2008-08-20 18:15:00 Lilypad - A Floating Ecopolis.The planet is warming, ice caps are melting, and water levels are rising and the international scientific community predicts that a temperature elevation of 1°C will lead to a water rise of 1 meter, resulting in massive land reduction and more than 50 million people will be affected by this change; imagine what would happen when it goes to 2 meters. Vincent Callebaut, a visionary Belgian architect has come up with his proposal 'Lilypad, A Floating Ecopolis' as a solution. Lilypad, a prototype of auto-sufficient amphibious city is a true amphibian - half aquatic and half terrestrial city. It will be able to accommodate 50,000 inhabitants. The floating structure of the Ecopolis is directly inspired by the highly ribbed leaf of the great lilypad of Amazonia Victoria Regia. The goal is to create a harmonious coexistence of humans and nature, exploring new modes of crosscultural aquatic living. Source: 1, 2, 3, 4.Other Posts:Glass Floor.Face Painting.Toot...

Income expert favors floating rates
2008-06-05 07:00:00 "A good idea during a period of interest rates uncertainty is to buy funds that hold 'floating rates' securities," explains income expert Richard Lehmann (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2070) in The Forbes ETF Advisor (http://www.thestockadvisors.co-m/ccount/click.php?id=2070)."On-e month investors run to safety, then they run to yield, with none having a good idea of where interest rates are going in the short or long term. A possible solution to the uncertainty is to buy funds that hold adjustable rate securities. "Floating rate securities aim to keep their value constant while interest rates change. These floating rate funds pay descent dividends and trade at hefty discounts to their net asset value."We looked at closed end floating rate funds that had the best mixture of discounts to NAV and high yield. Most of the funds use leverage to enhance their returns and invest in below investment grade securities to garner higher rates. "Their holdings of many...
