Burj Dubai, World's Tallest Building, Now Open
The world's tallest building, rising up to 828 meters to touch the clouds, Burj Dubai, is now open for business!
Burj Dubai was opened today in a ceremony, celebrating the fourth anniversary of Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum becoming Ruler of Dubai.
As Dubai struggles with the economic crisis, the 160-floor-skyscraper is seen as a window of opportunity to pick up things and attract more business.
Construction on Burj Dubai began back in 2004. It was developed by Emaar and constructed by Samsung Engineering & Construction.
The building will house 900 residences on floors 19 through 108. The observation deck is on Floor 124. Sky lobbies on Floors 43, 76 and 123 will have fitness facilities, swimming pools and Jacuzzis. It has a hotel designed by Giorgio Armani.

CMYK Spraycan Design
The refillable Color Dial Spray is a novel design for a spray can that
contains four colour cartridges (CMYK) in the one can. The two Korean
designers, Kim Youngsuk Kim Woosik, have taken the spraycan game to
another level. Two dials(for hue and brightness) help the painter
achieve the exact color required. The user can immediately change the colour
by turning the colour dials near the top of the can.
The two dials allow for precise mixing of the particular colour desired.
The colour cartridges can be refilled many times over. This helps with
the reduction of waste.

Happy New Year to All the Readers
A New Year is a special time,
And I pray yours will be blessed.
May each new day bring happiness,
And everything's that's best.
I wish for you God's gifts of love,
Joy and hope each day.
That you will feel His presence,
Every step of the way.
A new beginning filled with love,
Is also wished today.
Because you are a special friend,
In every kind of way.
I look forward to the days ahead,
Spending time with friends too.
It doesn't matter whether old or new,
What matters is friends like you.
Happy New Year!
