Having the steel rods meet at a ball saves alot of work- and looks good:
The little balls make it so that the ends of the metal rods don't have to be cut at an angle to fit with each-other. They don't join to each other, but always to a ball, so the rods can all get a square cut.
This is good for the sanity of the welders, who have to make about 220 welds a day to keep up with the schedule.
The pipe in the center of the structure is temporary. The center of Bliss Dance will be open. If a bird got in there, it would have an interesting space to fly in, with lots of perches.

UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.
MORRIS ELFENSON, OF TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA.
LIFE-SAVING AND SWIMMING DEVICE.
Application filed May 31, 1924. Serial No. 717,158. . .
To all whom, it may concern:
Be it known that I, MORRIS ELFENSON, a subject of the King of Rumania, residing at the city of Toronto, in the Province of Ontario, in the Dominion of Canada, have invented new and useful Improvements in Life-Saving and Swimming Devices, of which the following is a specification.
The invention relates to improvements in life saving and swimming devices as described in the present specification and shown in the accompanying drawings which form part of the same.
The invention consists essentially of a plurality of air chambers intercommunicating through passageways and provided with a valve so disposed that when the device is strapped in position upon the wearer the same lies conveniently situated in proximity to his mouth for purposes of inflating the device.
The objects of the invention are to provide a device of the kind referred to that may be stored or kept ready for use in a deflated condition, that it may be quickly inflated and used as a buoy to be thrown to a party in distress in the water; one which, furthermore, can be used as a swimming device of the “water-wings' variety; and as a boy to be carried on board-ship, where, in the event of danger, it could be continuously worn in its deflated condition by passengers and inflated by them when emergency arose.
Referring to the drawings, Figure 1 is a view of the device deflated. Figure 2 is a view of the device in place upon a person.
Like numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in each figure throughout the drawings. …”
No question about it, Keira's favorite mobile device is her Kindle. She spends way too much time on it. :)

for those who have never seen it.
my keys were sticking so i had to clean it out
it was nasty in there...but here it's clean
A flashing rear-end device on an eastbound Union Pacific train makes a nice pattern of lights. It's not in focus, but what the heck.
ISO 100, 81 seconds at f36, 91mm.
A Medusa-like device in Raleigh-Durham airport that will charge every mobile phone and PDA on the planet for $3 while you wait to board your American Airlines flight.
This is an orange channelizer drum, (construction barrel, cone, barricade, etc.) that was seen indoors at a rest area/welcome center in GA.
Over the last couple of years, the Arsenal footballer Emmanuel Eboue has been accused of diving, feigning injury, shirking, mouthing off, failing to control his temper and being not very good at football. And while there have been many occasions when these accusations have been justified, he has of late become a scapegoat for many Gooners struggling to explain the miserable season that has been endured so far.
I think that this is going a bit far but I suspect that only when Eboue becomes the next Lionel Messi will some of the whingers belt up about him. Thus far, mere positive thought on my part has failed to effect this transformation, so I have built the Eboue Device you see here.
In its quiescent state, the device is nothing more than a circuit board on which Eboue's squad number is displayed as a pattern of LEDs. Once activated, however, it emits a high-intensity beam of Ebouitron particles and these particles are known to induce a significant peformance enhancement in any previously mediocre footballer from the Ivory Coast wearing the displayed number on the back of an Arsenal shirt. I will ensure that the device will be activated for every Arsenal game in which Eboue features from now on.
I hope they don't change his squad number next season. The LEDs are soldered in and these widgets are £4.99 a pop from Maplins.
Perhaps I should say Great Grandparent's letter scales. It belonged to George Jefferson and Jessie Kate Brown, my mother's parents. See www.flickr.com/photos/fishchap/5330698856/in/set-72157625...
During a recent exploration to Kepler22b, an exoplanet from the Kepler-16 binary star system, Boris Chimp 504 found some metallic objects on its surface. Though the origin of these objects are totally unknown, it's probably a piece of technology from an extraterrestrial civilization. Boris has sent these objects in an hyperspace capsule to the Vladivostok Space Center, on Earth.
It is believed that it's a part of a machine, a mechanism or a device of some kind. Recent investigations on the objects lead to believe that it is an interface to control the position and orientation in space and time of something bigger, a spaceship maybe.
These objects are being presented in a series of interactive installations called "Non Human Device".

Windows 9 Will Adapt Its UI Depending On Device

Crickets are small programmable devices that can make things spin, light up, and play music. You can plug lights, motors, and sensors into a Cricket, then write computer programs to tell them how to react and behave. With Crickets, you can create musical sculptures, interactive jewelry, dancing creatures, and other artistic inventions -- and learn important math, science, and engineering ideas in the process.
Crickets are based on more than a decade of NSF-funded educational research. Lifelong Kindergarten researchers collaborated with the LEGO company to create the first "programmable bricks," squeezing computational power into LEGO bricks. This research led to the LEGO MindStorms robotics kits, now used by millions of people around the world. While LEGO MindStorms is designed especially for making robots, Crickets are designed especially for making artistic creations. Crickets were refined in collaboration with the Playful Invention and Exploration (PIE) museum network, and are now sold as a product through the Playful Invention Company (PICO).

If we learned anything at CES this past January, it’s that sensors are pervasive in every new cool tech getting to market these days. And health is definitely leading the way in this sensor proliferation. Constant tracking and monitoring through interconnected devices opens up unlimited possibilities for disease management and prevention leading up to new and remarkable business opportunities. Get the ins-and-outs of how these sensors can play to both individuals and enterprises and what companies are now doing with all of this data.

Running Debian on Inexpensive Network Storage Devices
von Martin Michlmayr (Debian Project)
Donnerstag, 31.05.2007, Saal 4: Kaiserslautern , 16:00-17:00 Uhr
Network Attached Storage devices (NAS) are gaining popularity and are available quite inexpensively. For most customers, they are basically just a hard drive that you connect to the network for file storage. In reality, these devices are complete, even if fairly low-end, computers - and Debian can be installed on some of them. This talk will show how combining a NAS with Debian gives you a low-power and quiet server for home use. In particular, it will cover two devices: the Linksys NSLU2 and the Thecus N2100.
