How To Demolish A Skyscraper One Floor At A Time


How do they do it ?

First they replace the support pillars at ground level with computer-controlled metal columns. Then, a crew carefully demolishes the entire floor by hand, leaving the structure resting on the mechanical pillars, which then go down slowly until the next floor is at ground level. They replace the support pillars again with the mechanical ones, destroy that floor, and repeat the operation until they get rid of all the floors.

This makes it look as if the building is shrinking in front of you, or being swallowed by the street. According to the company, this method greatly reduces the environmental impact of the demolition, as well as the time. Kajima says that it speeds up the task by 20%, while making it easier to separate materials for recycling, as well as reducing the amount of products released into the air.

Mowercycle


Mowercycle: "This MowerCycle was created by some DIY-genius out of an old bicycle and a broken lawnmower, we’re saying “DIY-genius” because his identity remains unknown - and this cannot be found at online do-it-yourself stores or something. Of course the efficiency of this is questioned since we assume riding a bike on grass isn’t the easiest thing to do, but the concept is brilliant!"

What Are the Odds?

What Are the Odds?: "About one out of every three people in the United States thinks that winning the lottery is the only way to become financially secure. But the odds of winning a single state lottery are about 18 million to 1.

That’s why I laugh at my friends who buy lottery tickets—to me, it’s just throwing money away. The likelihood you’ll be killed by lightning is roughly 2,650,000 to 1—a lot more likely than winning the lottery.

Have you ever wondered how the odds stack up against each other? For instance, did you know that your odds of winning an Olympic medal are roughly the same as drowning in the bathtub? Check out these odds:"

Joakim Soria Is Totally Fine With Being Called the 'Mexicutioner' - MLB FanHouse: "During the All Star Live Blog, someone kept mentioning the 'Mexicutioner' in the comments.

Top 10 Real Men of Genius Ads

Top 10 Real Men of Genius Ads: "One of Bud Light’s funniest ad campaigns to date, the Real Men of Genius commercials made a somewhat smooth transition from radio to television. ‘Somewhat’ in the sense that our imaginations will always be funnier that what is visually spoon fed to us, and mostly because the singer from the ads is better heard and not seen. The following are 10 of the best Real Men of Genius’ which have been rated based on the following criteria:

1. The levels of sarcasm in Deep Voice Guy’s commentary.
2. The vocal quality and lyrical hilarity provided by the Stephen Tyler wannabe.
3. The value of the service/invention provided by the featured “genius.”
4. The urgency with which some of these genius’ need to get the hint.

While some have not made it to television yet they are still worth listening to."

Passenger Strips; American Airlines Boston-LA Flight

Passenger Strips; American Airlines: "American Airlines Flight 725, scheduled to fly nonstop from Boston to Los Angeles on Friday, was diverted to Oklahoma City after a disruptive passenger took his clothes off and had to be subdued.

American Airlines told KNBC that as the passenger stripped his clothes off, he was restrained at first by other passengers. After being forced to put his clothes back on, flight attendants subdued him with a flexible handcuff.

The plane, which was due to land at 2:05 p.m. at Los Angeles International Airport, landed in Oklahoma City, where the disruptive passenger was handed over to local law enforcement authorities, the airline spokesperson said.

The plane refueled and took off for Los Angeles, where it was expected to arrive at LAX shortly after 3 p.m."

Ten Historic Spots to Whet Your Whistle

Ten Historic Spots to Whet Your Whistle: "Walking into a bar with a sign that says “Established in …” instead of ruby red ropes and flashy new interiors always makes me feel like I’m not just drinking a beer, I’m drinking in history. While every major metropolis has its “it” bars, nightclubs, and eateries to see and be seen in, there is something about drinking a cold ale surrounded by rich history that’s much more alluring to me.

Whether it’s the oldest bar in town, or the historic spot where great politicians, authors, and celebrities have tippled, these are a few of my favorite “old” watering holes that make me feel like I’m not so old after all … at least for a night."

Nudibranchs, The Most Colorful Creatures in the World by COLOURlovers

Nudibranchs, The Most Colorful Creatures in the World by COLOURlovers: "Part of the mollusk phylum, Nudibranchs are the shell-less relatives of the snail and are known for their garish colors. These tiny sea creatures are usually only 2cm - 6cm in length and can be found worldwide. They are able to thrive in any depth of salt water from the deepest darkest ocean floors to warm shallow water.

There are over 3,000 known species of nudibranchs, and scientist estimate that only half have been discovered so far. The creatures soft-body and short life span of 1 year make it possible for many of them to live undetected and vanish from the earth without a trace."

Somebody Forgot to Tell Rocco Mediate the U.S. Open Is Over

Somebody Forgot to Tell Rocco Mediate the U.S. Open Is Over - Golf FanHouse: "I know it's only Thursday and talking about a winner is premature, but could there be a better story than Rocco Mediate winning the British Open after that heartbreaking loss last month at Torrey Pines?

Mediate, who has only finished in the top-30 once in a British Open, is your current clubhouse leader, firing a one-under 69 that included a chip-in on 17 for birdie from the rough and a tricky birdie putt on 18.

Rocco went out with three bogeys in his first five holes, but played the last 13 holes four-under. Smiling the entire time, Mediate appears to have the perfect attitude to approach a golf tournament without the best weather. With the 'whatever happens, happens' mantra, Rocco seems to have accepted the playoff loss to Tiger Woods and improve from it."

Lenovo ThinkPad X200 - Review

Lenovo ThinkPad X200 - Review: "The ThinkPad X300, introduced last February, is easily Lenovo's greatest gem. But though it's as close to an impossible act to follow as an ultraportable can get, it has one major flaw—it costs $3,000! This was done, presumably, to give its other X-Series siblings such as the ThinkPad X200 ($1,199, direct) room to flourish. The X200 isn't likely to trump the X300 anytime soon, but it does have several things that make it a terrific business ultraportable. It's one of the first laptops to receive Intel's latest Centrino 2 platform (codenamed Montevina), including a powerful 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 processor that has a very favorable affect on battery life. Furthermore, every wireless technology imaginable is at your disposal, and your savings account won't take nearly as big a hit as with the X300."

Pandora Usage Stats Prove It’s iPhone’s Killer App

Pandora Usage Stats Prove It’s iPhone’s Killer App: "Pandora’s internet radio has always been one of those sites that was really cool in concept, but too inconvenient to ever go mainstream. The service was long tied to computers only, and while it eventually expanded to special internet radios and some mobile phones, it still has yet to become a household name. But with the launch of Pandora’s new iPhone app last Friday, it looks like the service is about to hit critical mass. It’s a free, mobile, digital radio station that only plays music you like and lets you skip the stuff you don’t. And it rocks."

Why You Should Stash Cash at Home | MainStreet:
"When the unexpected happens, it's always good to be prepared with some extra cash.

Many people no longer feel it's necessary to keep any significant amount of cash at home or in their wallet because it's just as easy to use credit cards at most establishments. If cash is needed, there are ATMs around virtually every corner.

Even though it can be quite easy to access money in these ways most of the time, there are still compelling reasons to store some extra cash under your mattress.

Here's a list of some events that would make you glad you had a bit of money at home."

Baseball Physics: Deception and Battered Expectations

Baseball Physics: Deception and Battered Expectationsl | LiveScience: "On fields of dreams, the duel between the batter and the pitcher at times assumes aspects of humiliation and farce. And never more so than when a batter misses a pitch, swinging so forcefully as to nearly sprain something. The culprit in such cases is usually either a rising fastball or a so-called drop curveball.

From the batter's perspective, a rising fastball follows a normal trajectory until it is quite close to home plate, at which point it seems to jump several inches, as if lifted by some mysterious force. A drop curveball, on the other hand, appears to drop straight down right in front of the plate, from twelve o'clock to six o'clock—hence its other name, '12-to-6 curveball.'"

The well-documented importance of exercise in maintaining fitness has created the idea that individuals can manage their health by increasing their activity.

Two new studies suggest that the inclination to exercise may be strongly affected by genetics."

Eisenhower to develop ARPA (Advanced Research Projects Agency) which would assemble of some of the greatest minds in the United States and eventually create the first internet. This teams first project was to put the first US Satellite into orbit and they accomplished the task in just 18 months. Afterwards, ARPA turned its attention to the need for improved military communications in 1962, with a focus on computer networking. By 1968, ARPA brought a lot of its research contracts to the university level, pulling them from the private sector. Many breakthroughs occured in this time period but none more than:"

Broken bats are commonplace in baseball games, but the Rhodes incident along with similar injuries this year to a hitting coach and an umpire, are making people wonder: Has America's pastime suddenly become a lot more dangerous and is the new trend in bat wood to blame?"
