...residence is an individual work of art. Madrid's Hotel Puerta América has also gone eclectic. The boutique's 12 floors have been transformed by 19 architecture studios from 13 countries. Each level showcases a different avant-garde interior-design concept, from Zaha Hadid's sinuous lines and fluid spaces on the first floor to an exercise in geometry and light by London-based Plasma Studio's Eva Castro and Holger Kehne on the fourth. Other designs include Teresa Sapey's colorful parking garage, Christian Liaigre's Latin-inspired restaurant, Marc Newson's glass-enclosed cocktail...
...dangerous as not drinking enough. Research showed that hydrating too much over the long haul--during a marathon, say, or a long-distance bike ride--dilutes the blood's salt content and can lead to hyponatremia. The body's cells, including brain cells, absorb the excess fluid and swell, and growing pressure in the skull can cause permanent damage or death. Hyponatremia is surprisingly common; in a study of 488 runners of the 2002 Boston Marathon, 13% were over-hydrated. Many of the symptoms of hyponatremia--nausea, dizziness, confusion, lethargy--mimic those of dehydration. The authors of the Boston study...
...overthink this: good-looking people kicking each other's buttocks one-on-one, Fight Club style, in high definition. Is there really much more to life? The game play is not cutting edge, but Dead or Alive 4 may be the most visually impressive game on the 360, with fluid animation, wild new martial-arts styles, luscious lighting effects and insanely detailed background environments. And those fighters: really, really good looking...
...Grier’s group in 1997. According to Grier, a HOT “use[s] forces exerted by light to grab and move microscopic objects.” The HOT technology improves on previous methods to arrange nanowires by stochastic methods—like the use of fluid pressure to coax nanowires into place. Grier wrote in an e-mail that applications of the HOT technique “range from performing surgery within living cells to fundamental investigations of many-body statistical physics”—the investigation of large-scale motion of many small...
...Each person then claims the nail in front of them and grabs two cans of beer. The game begins when the first player flips the hammer upwards in a 360-degree motion, catches it, and then attempts to hit one of the other players nails, all in one single, fluid motion. The person whose nail has been hit is then forced to drink their beer in proportion to the damage inflicted. The game ends when all the nails are hammered into the Stump. Some fun rules include: “Home Improvement,” which happens when a player?...
