Architects and designers love flat roofs; they not only look cool but if you design them properly they can permit high-level ventilation and keep the house cool. This one, designed by Studio Dror, "creates a wind tunnel circulating breezes in the summer heat." Indeed, but who wants all that ventilation in winter and what about snow loads? ...

Il post di oggi mi sembra l’occasione adatta. Con ogni probabilità, le tesi di cui io sono a conoscenza rappresentano ...

Lord knows a lot of people seem to like Charlie Kaufman for the wrong reasons. Some of them confusing abstruseness with profundity and perhaps not really knowing what his films are about: 'hipster films' we call them that appeal to shallow nitwits. Kaufman's not having it either."You know, I really hate stuff that does that and I think some of those movies have been compared to things that I did with Spike or Michel Gondry. ...

It's been a long, arduous trek for Paramount's planned pseudo-biopic of connoisseur of the bizarre Robert Ripley. The movie was supposed to start filming in 2007 with Tim Burton at the helm. Then Burton ran for the hills. Michel Gondry was briefly rumored to take over, but that notion faded into the ether. Now, Variety reports that Chris Columbus is in negotiations to take over the project, with the plot and screenplay to be reworked ...

X-in' and O-in' with actual coach Tyler Sellhorn. Florida led the SEC in 2007 in total offense, passing offense, scoring offense, yards per pass, yards per play and pass efficiency, and was second (to Arkansas) in yards per carry. It was good at everything, largely because its quarterback was good at everything -- Tim Tebow can run, and if he doesn't possess a true golden arm, defenses were too busy worrying about his legs for ...

If you don't want to move to a missile silo in upstate New York, perhaps we can interest you in a giant, glass-enclosed skyscraper whose upper units dangle in midair? Today the architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron (who recently designed the "bird's nest" Olympic stadium in Beijing) revealed their plans for a 57-story building of irregularly-stacked flats at 56 Leonard St. in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood. Each flat will have a slightly different floorplan, and ...
