A Tall Order
The sky isn’t the limit for an architect building the world’s first invisible skyscraper.
Charles Wee, one of the world's leading high-rise architects, has a confession to make: he's bored with skyscrapers. After designing more than 30, most of which punctuate the skylines of rapidly expanding Asian cities, he has struck upon a novel concept: the first invisible skyscraper.
As the tallest structure in South Korea, his Infinity Tower will loom over Seoul until somebody pushes a button and it completely disappears.
When he entered a 2004 competition to design a landmark tower, the Korean-American architect rejected the notion of competing with Dubai, Toronto, and Shanghai to reach the summit of man-made summits. “I thought, let's not jump into this stupid race to build another ‘tallest’ tower,” he says in a phone conversation. “Let's take an opposite approach — let's make an anti-tower.”
The result will be a 150-story building that fades from view at the flick of a switch. The tower will effectively function as an enormous television screen, being able to project an exact replica of whatever is happening behind it onto its façade. To the human eye, the building will appear to have melted away.
It will be the most extraordinary achievement of Wee's stellar architectural career. After graduating from UCLA, he worked under Anthony Lumsden, a prolific Californian architect who helped devise the modern technique of wrapping buildings inside smooth glass skins.

Our bodies produce a small steady amount of natura! morphine, a new study suggests. Traces of the Chemical are often found in mouse and human urine, leading scientists to wonder whether the dmg is being made naturally or being delivered by something the subjects consumed. The new research shows that mice produce the “incredible painkiller” — and that humans and other mammals possess the same Chemical road map for making it, said study co-author Meinhart Zenk, who studies plant-based pharmaceuticals atthe Donaid Danforth Plant Science Center in St. Louis, Missouri.

After príson blaze kilis hundreds in Honduras, UN warns on overcrowding
15 February 2012
A Unned Nations human rights official today cailed on Latin American countries to tackle the problem of prison overcrowding in the wake of an ovemight fire at a jail in Honduras that killed hundreds of inmates. More than 300 prisoners are reported to have died in the blaze at the prison, located north of the capital, Tegucigalpa, with dozens of others still missing and presumed dead. Antonio Maldonado, human rights adviser for the UN system in Honduras, told UN Radio today that overcrowding may have contributed to the death toll. “But we have to wait until a thorough investigation is conducted so we can reach a precise cause," he said. "But of course there is a probiem of overcrowding in the prison system, not only in this country, but also in many other prtsons in Latin America."
