Home Look Inside BMW's Ultra-Green i3 Factory BMW claims to have halved the production time from what it was a decade ago, partly by buying into the sourcing process with a joint venture with carbon specialists SGL Automotive Carbon Fibres to weave carbon thread into dry mats at its hydroelectric powered plant in Washington State. The mats contain a binder agent, and when they arrive at the Leipzig factory they are preformed using ultrasound to activate the binder agent and hold an approximate shape. Each body side uses nine panels. Before the resin is added, most of the excess is trimmed. Cleanliness is so vital that workers wear gloves—the sweat off a finger can ruin a glued joint.

Antoni Gaudí Antoni Gaudí i Cornet (Reus o Riudoms,[1] 25 de junio de 1852 – Barcelona, 10 de junio de 1926) fue un arquitecto español, máximo representante del modernismo catalán. Dotado de una fuerte intuición y capacidad creativa, Gaudí concebía sus edificios de una forma global, atendiendo tanto a las soluciones estructurales como las funcionales y decorativas. Estudiaba hasta el más mínimo detalle de sus creaciones, integrando en la arquitectura toda una serie de trabajos artesanales que dominaba él mismo a la perfección: cerámica, vidriería, forja de hierro, carpintería, etc. Asimismo, introdujo nuevas técnicas en el tratamiento de los materiales, como su famoso “trencadís” hecho con piezas de cerámica de desecho. La obra de Gaudí ha alcanzado con el transcurso del tiempo una amplia difusión internacional, siendo innumerables los estudios dedicados a su forma de entender la arquitectura. ”La belleza es el resplandor de la verdad, y como que el arte es belleza, sin verdad no hay arte”.
How to Find Fulfilling Work By Maria Popova “If one wanted to crush and destroy a man entirely, to mete out to him the most terrible punishment,” wrote Dostoevsky, “all one would have to do would be to make him do work that was completely and utterly devoid of usefulness and meaning.” Indeed, the quest to avoid work and make a living of doing what you love is a constant conundrum of modern life. In How to Find Fulfilling Work (public library) — the latest installment in The School of Life’s wonderful series reclaiming the traditional self-help genre as intelligent, non-self-helpy, yet immensely helpful guides to modern living, which previously gave us Philippa Perry’s How to Stay Sane and Alain de Botton’s How to Think More About Sex — philosopher Roman Krznaric (remember him?) explores the roots of this contemporary quandary and guides us to its fruitful resolution: Never have so many people felt so unfulfilled in their career roles, and been so unsure what to do about it.
Friedensreich Hundertwasser Hundertwasser (a la izquierda) 1965 en Hannover. Hundertwasser 1998 en Nueva Zelanda. Friedrich Stowasser (15 de diciembre de 1928 en Viena - 19 de febrero de 2000), más conocido como Friedensreich Hundertwasser (en una creación suya se autodenomina "Friedensreich Regentag Dunkelbunt Hundertwasser") fue un artista austriaco multifacético. Nieto del conocido filólogo Joseph Maria de Stowasser, se desempeñó en diversas áreas de conocimiento como la pintura y la escultura haciendo algunos diseños de edificios. Composición de su nombre[editar] Adoptó el prefijo Sto (en Checo significa "cien") que es lo mismo que "Hundert" en alemán, siendo esta la razón por la que es denominado Hundertwasser o Stowasser. Características e Influencias[editar] Las características originales de Hundertwasser son la expresión del shock en el arte pictórico, la filosofía del ambientalismo, el diseño de fachadas, sellos postales, banderas y vestidos (entre otras áreas).

Finally, A Transition Plan towards a Resource Based Economy: The 4-Hour Work-day When explaining what a Resource Based Economy is and how it would help society and the planet to live a better life, one of the most asked questions by the audience or public in general is the one about transition. If we manage to convince the audience that the Resource Based Economy model is the way to go, we will get questions like: “Ok, it sounds great but......how do we get there?” Carlos “Carlin” Tovar, a Peruvian architect, graphic designer and a renowned cartoonist, is proposing a reduction of working hours from 8 to 4 hours a day. But technology is not the problem, he adds. “Carlin” (Pronounced Kar-leen), as people call him in Peru, has launched a campaign to promote a worldwide strike to reduce the work-day to 4 hours a day in a global scale. The campaign promotes a progressive reduction of working hours to allow markets to adjust: A reduction of half an hour each month, so in 8 months we would accomplish the 4 hour work-day. It’s all up to us now.
Autodesk Homestyler: software gratuito para diseño de interiores Microwave News | Would You Believe… Specific Frequencies Block Growth of Cancer Cells A couple of months ago, the British Journal of Cancer published a paper detailing some extraordinary results: very specific types of weak electromagnetic (EM) fields were able to stabilize and shrink liver tumors in advanced cancer patients who had exhausted other treatment options. A press release was issued describing how the EM treatment was far more effective than the only available FDA-approved drug. It was pretty much ignored. No one believed it. Today, the British Journal of Cancer is releasing a follow-up paper by the same research group, led by Boris Pasche of the University of Alabama medical school in Birmingham. The new paper shows that the same signals that were effective in patients disrupted cancer cells in the laboratory. Pasche concedes that there is no known biophysical mechanism to explain what they are seeing. Another striking aspect of the work is how little RF radiation is needed to cause such a profound effect on the cancer cells.
