Pool Pavilion, an Intriguing Recreational Building Design

Pool Pavilion is a very interesting project designed by Peter Gluck and Partners Architects and located in Adirondack mountains, New York, near Lake George. The residence has two levels and was built in order to have a recreational purpose for the owners, their family and friends. The exterior is highly original, especially the undulating roof which also serves as a green terrace for leisure. The ground level looks like a rift in its environment while the upper floor serves as a home office and as a “guarding point”. Floor to ceiling windows allow unobstructed views of the surrounding landscape here, as opposed to those from the first floor, that offer a limited perspective. This fun retreat houses a gym, a theater and a spectacular pool flanked with glass and iron panels. What do you think- appealing enough for a family vacation?

This was beautiful

Be careful if you make a woman cry,Allah counts her tears. A woman came out of a man's rib.Not from his feet to be walked on, not from his head to be superior over,......but from his side to be equal. Under the arm to be protected,and next to the heart to be loved

Toilet and Bidet Bench



eh eh well done bathrooms are a joy to experience
tell me you are not feeling this new look..

G-Full Toilet and Bidet(bench) from Hatria

Italian company Hatria come up with an interesting idea for the bathroom that hides toilet and bidet smartly under the stylish solid wood cover, so when is not in use it converts into an elegant bathroom bench. Hidden away from view, the toilet and bidet are revealed when you flip up the wooden cover. The G-Full system is wall mounted, and is not something very useful but it looks good. – Via

The world's most expensive hotel opens up with the world's largest outdoor pool at 55th storey

largest-outdoor-pool-1.jpg It's finally happened! The $5.95 billion Marina Bay Sands Hotel, Singapore finally opened its doors to public in a gala event, and it also managed to dethrone the Emirates Palace Hotel, Abu Dhabi from its position as the world's most expensive hotel. But that's not all, the main attraction of the hotel is a 650ft wide pool perched up at the 55th storey of the magnificent hotel, making it the largest outdoor pool in the world that high. Called as the Infinity pool, the drop at the edge of the pool spills into a three-tiered catchment which pumps water right back to the main pool! The hotel also has a boat-shaped 'SkyPark' on top of the three towers.

The hotel features 2,560 rooms that would cost you $520 a night. Designed by Moshe Safdie, the structure is said to be based on the design resembling a deck of cards. The hotel décor includes an indoor canal that has Sampan boats to ride in, a casino, an outdoor plaza, a convention centre, a theatre, a crystal pavilion and a lotus flower shaped museum. The resort will open employment to over 10,000 locals, enough to generate $72m each year.

Aston Martin 77

Aston Martin One-77 worth $1.75 million makes the loudest 'vroom'

Aston_Martin_One-77.jpg Aston-Martin's new car One-77 has certainly come out as a winner amongst many prototypes at the Concorso d’Eleganza. It seems that the sound it's capable of making is nothing short of awe inspiring. You have to expect a loud roar with the 7.3-liter V12. Apparently, the sound is so ear shattering that it really reverbated off the Villa d’Este’s walls. You have to hear it to believe it. The sound stood out amongst other powerful noises made by engines of a Jaguar D-Type, a Lamborghini Miura and various Ferrari 250 GT’s, so you can grasp what I am saying. I'm completely floored hearing the Aston's engine rev. Being worth $1.75 million, it better sound like this.

Imagine just walking around the Richardson Bay and spotting 390-foot yacht parked right there! Atleast that is what greeted spectators off Sausalito, as Russian billionaire Andrey Melnichenko$300 million yacht called “A” stood parked at the bay. Owned by Melnichenko and his wife Nikolic Melnichenko, the yacht features a 2,500-square-foot master suite, three swimming pools and has entry secured by a fingerprint access system. The all white bomb proof vessel also comes equipped with six cabins, 37-member cabin crew and 5-member staff, hot tubs, pools, spas and a 60-inch plasma TV retracting from the ceiling just adjacent to a king-size bed on a rotating platter.

One of the rooms is said to be done up in white stingray leather, another is made with hand-stiched calf leather. The main deck however contains chairs crafted out of alligator skins and Kudo horns. So opulent is the entire set up, that the two main landing boats for the ships are 36-feet mini yachts in themselves, costing over $1 million a piece!

Bad habit

Have u ever had that one bad habit
someone u could not stop seeing or thinking about
you could not help yourself..you just wanted to be near this person
maxwell highlights this
I can’t control the feeling
Girl cause I know you’re here
I fill you from the floor to the ceiling
Girl, I’ll feel you when you comb your hair

Lady, when we lock it low (ah, ah)
We get together, it’s an overdose
I’m slippin’, I’m here, I’m on my knees
I feels my heart’s about to explode
This is the highest cost,
Take you and make you off
Live you and leave you lost
Will you forgive me?

Asked (Asked?) out all over town
Drags you and keeps you down
Two times and I take a round
Will you forgive me?

Baby, to tell the truth
When I’m sober I jonez for you
When its over I’m overdue (huh)
Girl, its no one as bad as (no one as bad as you)

You got me, you got me
You got me
Slippin around with it
Around with it, awhile

You got me sick with this love, baby
I’m so, I’m so in love
I can’t come down

You’re my bad habit baby
You’re my, you’re taking
My soul, down to the level
Can’t escape the way you got me locked up baby
I gotta break from you, break from you
Break from you

in this last verse he breaks up and lets it all out crying..
hehe lovesprung...indeeed...
punk??

back then




well i was looking through these and boy was i laughing
i have to come up with some extremely cute and memorable snaps for my brothers' wedding photo book and these are wat i salvaged...

Statistics [bitter truth]

25% of all men are unstable
25% of all men can't be faithful
30% of them don't mean what they say
and 10% of them in maybe 20 is gay

That leaves you a 10% chance of ever finding your man
That means you better paid attention to these words that I said
I'm gonna teach you how expose the 90%
and show you what to do to keep the other 10.

RULE #1
Don't be a booty call
If he don't respect you girl he gon forget you girl

RULE #2
If he's in a relationship
If he will cheat on her that means he will cheat on you

RULE #3
Tell him that you're celibate
And if he wants some of your goodies he gon have to work for it

RULE #4
Be the person you wanna find
Don't be a nickel out here lookin' for a dime

STATISTICS!

15% of all men got a complex
15% of all men don't practice safe sex
20% of them come from homes without a father
and there's a 50/50 chance that you'll marry a coward

Something to think about when you're taking a shower
Something to swallow when you're drinking bottled water

I'm gonna teach you how to expose the 90%
and show you what to do to keep the other 10

Be patient! He's waiting!
You don't gotta settle for that
Leave what is past alone!
Get you a backbone!
Stop being (sorry for) yourself!

Have you no checklist?
It's gonna take patience
Time is still wastin'

Don't be a booty call
If he don't respect you girl he gon forget you girl

If he's in a relationship
If he will cheat on her that means he will cheat on you

Tell him that you're celibate
and if he wants some of your goodies he gon have to work for it.

Be the person you wanna find
Don't be a nickel out here lookin' for a dime.

Independene

A certain man in kenya said
"Did we struggle this much for independence to have ten millionaires and ten million beggars!!"

New look

Hehehe jus figured out how to stretch my post layout
damn it was looking all funny and iish
we back
next month i get the iphone 4 and can happily continue with the blogging..

Free Thinking

I pay attention to the tiniest detail
I appreciate the smallest gesture
I see things differently [ i want to see things differently]
I want to understand
The free thinkers...
Who are they..
They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.
About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward.Maybe they have to be crazy.
How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art? Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written? Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?
While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.
Lets start from here, thinking how to make a difference and not just follow without reason
Lets build paths and not follow trails..
Lets think differently..

A few words of advice

Watch your thoughts, they become your words Watch your words, they become your actions Watch your actions, they become your habits Watch your habits, they become your character Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.
The longer we dwell on our misfortunes, the greater is their power to harm us
Until you make peace with who you are, you'll never be content with what you have
The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it.

Death can be so sudden so painful yet so real a timely reminder to all our souls that there will be a time when we have to leave earth and attone for every little thing we did on this earth. Its a reminder to let us know what it feels like to loose something. Its a reminder to the most important fact of all that human life is sacred and cherished.. i will miss you all. some slightly more because i believe i didnt get to know you as much as i wanted to. some because i never got to say goodbye or even talked to in a long time. but i love you and i wish God rests your souls in peace.
