...built on top of and within an existing six-story masonry warehouse. It was the SHoP architects who discovered the old warehouse. Then they went to Jeffrey M. Brown Associates, a Philadelphia-based developer and former client, to broach the idea of partnering with him to purchase and transform the property. That architects-as-developers business model is one they have since used to generate several other projects...
...Perhaps, although she has certainly used the incident to transform her life into something quite unlike that of millions of other women. She resigned from her police job, underwent breast augmentation surgery ("I had always wanted it, my brother paid for it, I am paying him back in installments") and parlayed her beauty, and the media attention she garnered over the suitcase incident, into the beginnings of a show business career.

That's essentially free movement, and scientists can transform that micromotion into electricity in a number of ways. One should be familiar from high school physics class. A magnet hooked up to be sensitive to vibrations wobbles inside a copper coil, generating a current through electromagnetism. Steve Beeby, an engineer at the University of Southampton in Britain, created a vibration harvester that works...
