"The Books Spiral is four floors of book stacks, connected by gentle ramps. The majority of the nonfiction collection — 75 percent of the entire collection — is located on the Books Spiral. This lets the nonfiction collection exist in one continuous run, and avoids the problem of having to move books into other rooms or floors as the collection expands. ....
floor mats throughout the Books Spiral are labeled with Dewey Decimal System numbers to help people find the items on each floor."

Museum of Technology [Muzeum Techniki] 1985 S 1935 TehWar_09
Sokół (Polish: Falcon) was a brand of motorcycles manufactured in Poland before World War II for both civilian and military use. Initially designed and produced by the Centralne Warsztaty Samochodowe CWS company (Central Automotive Workshops), they were continued after its takeover by the PZInż between 1934 and 1939.
A vast collection dedicated to the history of everything technological inside the equally enormous Palace of Culture & Science, this museum is only missing a map. Truly huge, and clearly laid out by somebody with a sadistic sense of humour, the scores of rooms are scattered willy nilly and organised with what appears to be a contemptuous disregard for reason and logic. Highlights include a cavalcade of impossible-looking motorbikes and aeroplanes, a room packed with 19th century musical boxes, historical cars like a 1936 Lux-Sport limousine chassis and a small exhibition celebrating space exploration that could do with some serious updating. Decorated with lace curtains and staffed by an army of sinister-looking old ladies, this museum guarantees that you won’t learn a thing no matter how hard you try, but it’s a strangely rewarding experience that really has to be seen to be believed.
Ensuring every student has access to technology is a top priority at DMPS.

Financial technology has altered how money moves. What risks are posed to banks and customers when these funds are brokered between banks? Are brokered deposits the risky form of “hot money” associated with troubled banks? Or, are they tools of cash management serving a new financial landscape? Do regulations need to change and, if so, how?

I know the mobile phone was invented by Martin Cooper in 1973 but for me the late great Steve Jobs and his team at Apple invented the very best in technology.
I use a MacBook Pro, an iPhone Pro and an iPad Air on a daily basis and know that Apple "inventions" are used by millions of people, worldwide!
Okay, I'm somewhat biased, I know!!

A major review has confirmed the UK is uniquely positioned to develop driverless car technology.
Up to now, the scope for testing driverless cars has been limited, but industry has been given the green light for testing on public roads.
The UK’s regulatory environment now sets it apart as a premium location for developing new technology, with tremendous potential for reducing accidents and making traffic flow more smoothly.
See press release for further information.
