Lillypad City: The floating city
The Lilly pad city is able to hold 50 000 people, it is designed to be built if the worlds cities flood because of global warming. It would travel all throughout seas and oceans with no boundless possibilities as to where it could go.

Awesome Nixie chess set now available as a limited edition kit
The gentle orange glow of a Nixie display tube has held a special place in the hearts of DIY device builders for as long as I can remember but they seem to be undergoing something of a mainstream revival of late. Many are used as clock displays (as evidenced by our recent coverage of the Ramos alarm clock and ThinkGeek’s DIY Nixie Tube Desk Clock kit), due to the most common tube featuring a stack of numerical cathodes. Some display scientific symbols, of course, and its these Nixie tubes that have been used in the creation of the gorgeous chess board you see above.

CARRY ME AWAY

Zindgi Naam Ko Hamari Hai
Zindgi naam ko hamari hai
akhri sans bhi tumhari hai

mujhse pucho chamak sitaron ki
maine ro ro ke shab guzari hai
Drinking and driving
I would like to share an experience with you about drinking and driving.
As you well know, some of us have been known to have had brushes with the authorities on our way home from the odd social session over the years.
A couple of nights ago, I was out for a few drinks with some friends at the Marriott Hotel and had a few too many beers and some rather nice red wine.
Knowing full well I may have been slightly over the limit, I did something I've never done before: I took a bus home.
Sharing
When we share laughter,
There's twice the fun;
When we share success,
We've surpassed what we've done.
When we share problems,
There's half the pain;
When we share tears,
A rainbow follows rain.
