It’s been a while since we featured any form of lighting here on TFTS but the moment we came across this fascinating concept from Norwegian designer Daniel Rybakken, known simply as ‘Daylight Comes Sideways’, which uses a series of dimmable LEDs to not only create false daylight (an artificial window if you will) but that also ads artificial shadows allowing for animated details, such as a cloud passing by or a tree swaying in the wind, we just knew we had to feature it here.

A couple of years back I took advantage of an introductory offer on a .co.uk TLD domain name. I can't remember the exact deal, but at the time it was something like £2 for a 2 year registration. At the time, that was cheaper than my current registrar which worked out at about £1.99 per year, so £2 for 2 years wasn't to be scoffed at (especially when you are registering 50 or so .co.uk's a month). The first of them is nearing renewal and so the 60 day renewal warning turned up in my inbox, and as I expected they increased their renewal price to £9.99 a year. I'd already started the transfer to my current registrar so it wasn't a problem. As I said, I was expecting the hike, and I only registered with them to take advantage of saving a packet. What I didn't ex

The length of the day is determined by the rotation of the Earth around its axis. A short explanation can be found here [1]. In principle the rotation of the Earth is what is driving the changing of day and night. Furthermore, the place on the globe has some influence. If you are close to the Equator, day and night are both around 12 hours across the year. When you go away from the Equator, the fact the Earth's axis is tilted has some influence, making days longer in Summer and shorter in Winter. What you are describing sounds like a sudden change in day length. The only thing that could cause this is a slow-down and speed-up of the rotation of the Earth (this would also cause tidal waves). However, the amount of energy required for this is massive. We can compute the amount of energy the

Why is daylight savings on a Saturday night/ Sunday morning? Why don't we switch our clocks on a Friday night? Next time that is what I'm doing.We switched our clocks about noon on Saturday, we ate dinner that evening an hour early, put the kids to bed an hour early... but they stayed awake asking "why is it not dark?"*****************************Sorry posting has been light...

Last night around 2 am, the daylight saving time begun, now we had another hour in advance, I love this time than before since we had another hour to sleep! Well, I forgot about it though, today, especially on updating our clocks. I just noticed it until I was kind a worried since we're going to be late for a birthday dinner for my brother in law, I thought it's already 6 pm but it was still 5 pm, my husband was kind a like, what?! lol! Well, just never thought about it. We don't have it in the Philippines! lol!Let's recollect of how this Daylight Saving Time works:Daylight saving time (DST) is the convention of advancing clocks so that afternoons have more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward
Just a friendly reminder that you should change all your batteries in the smoke detectors twice a year. Since today is the first day of Daylight Savings Time then it's a good time to change those batteries. Even if you have electric interconnected smoke detectors you still need to replace the back-up batteries. I'm glad to see Daylight Savings Time since it should mean spring is getting closer. After the winter we've had here in New Hampshire the warmer weather will be a very welcome sight!

Where you live helps determine your sleep scheduleResearch on the effects of 'spring ahead' across the country shows that television, not the sun, determines sleep schedule.Most of the nation is once again readying itself for losing an hour of sleep with the arrival of Daylight Saving Time. This is a “shock” not only to those of us who value our sleep, but also (very temporarily) to all levels of the economy, from the individual to the world.In a forthcoming article for the Journal of Labor Economics, researchers look at the brief fight between American’s natural timing cues -- the circadian rhythms determined by the sun -- and the man-made cues brought on within the last century, mainly by the creation of time zones and the television broadcast schedule.In this relatively brief time

A study shows an increase in traffic accidents immediately following the spring daylight savings time shift.
When clocks are set back an hour in the spring, accidents go up according to a 1998 study of the effect of daylight savings time. Sleep deprivation is considered the most likely cause of a 17 percent increase in accidents on the Monday following the time change. The study also found no significant reduction in accidents in the fall when clocks are set back an hour.
The study used data from NHTSA's Fatal Accident Reporting System from 1986 to 1995. The same researcher had concluded in 1996 that sleep deprivation led to a 6.6 percent increase in non-vehicle deaths after the spring change, with an insignificant 1.5 percent decrease following the fall clock change.

Daylight saving not saving anythingDaylight saving appeared originally in ancient times, but the first recorded proposal for the use of this convention came from Benjamin Franklin, during a visit in France, when he proposed that Parisians could make a more economic use of candles if they were to wake up earlier in the morning. In 1905, William Willett invented daylight saving time, or DST, also known in the United Kingdom as the summer time, and two years later he proposed it for implementation.Daylight saving time basically means that during the summer period, clocks must be set one hour in advance, so that the human species makes better use of the light received from the Sun. Aside the obvious advantages which descend from the use of such a time scheme, there is also the myth of electric

Treehugger blogged this week on the self-scoring the EU released on their progress toward Kyoto emissions and energy goals. The outlook was not that great, altogether, though progress has been made in the appropriate direction, unlike the US and Japan, which also received scores, and seem to be heading in the wrong direction. Unfortunately, according to the scorecard, the EU is still not on track to meet those goals.

Here's another report about a pedestrian being struck by a car while crossing an intersection in the early morning hours in Seattle.
If you recall, there was some reports about the increase of pedestrian-auto accidents during daylight saving time. The theory being that when daylight saving time goes into effect, it is much darker outside in the morning hours. Thus, more pedestrians are struck by motorists who cannot adequately see the person when it is so dark out. See also Wikipedia's report on daylight saving time and the increase of pedestrian accidents.
The Washington State Department of Transportation warns:
During this period of dark, rainy and foggy conditions, drivers are reminded to watch for pedestrians along school bus routes, intersections and transit stops

A cantora de R&B e ex-Desteny's Child, Kelly Rowland, lançou este ano o seu 2º album a solo intitulado "Ms. Kelly", que no geral era um bom album coeso e com uma sonoridade própria.No entanto, o album não teve muito sucesso, e nós achamos que se deve principalmente à má escolha dos 2 primeiros singles: "Like This" (feat. Eve) e "Ghetto" (feat. Snoop Dogg).Assim, Kelly voltou para o estúdio de gravação para gravar novas músicas com vista a re-lançar o seu "Ms. Kelly" em 2008. Trabalhou com Nate Danja Hills (produtor do novo album da Britney) entre outros.Download:Kelly Rowland - Daylight (feat.

Some may call it a mental problem but dealing with the daylight savings time that has been in effect today has some people suffering from sleep disorder issues encountering more problems. The transition from the old time to DST is really something that many deem as affecting the normal body clock of people. But then again, adjustments should be made to be able to get the proper amount of sleep.
People unaware of the time adjustments to daylight savings time would normally live their usual lives. The thing with people today is that adjusting is taken in vain. Just try ignoring this adjustment and there is really low to none adjustments if people so choose to do so.
Sleep can be considered a ‘change of shifts.’ There is the ‘awake’ day brain and the ’sleeping’ night brain. The transition or ’shift change’ from wakefulness to sleep normally takes approximately 10 to 20 minutes. The body needs time to properly shut down the ‘awake&rs
What I like about daylight savings is that it is easier to get the school-goers out of bed in the morning when the sun supports my efforts. It is also easier to get them in bed at night when that extra hour of darkness convinces them they are sufficiently late for bedtime.
But, I am the kind of person who keeps techy toys until they die. When the twisted idiot in charge of daylight savings
Yesterday, while childless heathens across the United States were nestling ever-deeper into the warmth of their childless beds, pulling their covers ever-closer to their smug chins and reveling in the circadian aftershocks of William Willett’s tireless advocacy of later tee times, Sunday morning in the psychiatric ward of our mental hospital began an hour earlier than usual because you simply can’t turn back the Combine of a child’s internal clock.
So, at a couple minutes before 7:00 am on Sunday morning Kathleen and I sat slumped over the dining room table in the common area of our institution, chronics in a vegetative state, our lifeless hands wrapped around our coffee mugs, sections of the Sunday Paper opened ornamentally in front of our thousand-yard stares.
Before I could even finish my first cup of dark roast or even garner enough indignant energy to launch into my compulsory and always relevant Sunday morning comics-induced tirade about how Bill Keane of Family Circus noto
“Spring forward, fall back.” This little phrase that’s used as a reminder for when to change our clocks for Daylight Savings Time is cursed at in the spring (when we lose an hour of sleep) and praised in the fall (when we gain an hour).
This past Saturday was one of those joyous occasions where we were to turn our clocks back and gain an hour of wonderful sleep. Only I didn’t. Because I forgot. Again.
As I pulled into church Sunday morning to a near-empty parking lot, I picked up my cell phone and called my mom.
“Where are you,” I asked.
“What do you mean? It’s only ten o’clock,” she replied.
“You forgot to turn back your clock didn’t you?”
She knows me too well.
Daylight Savings Time is an enigma I have yet to completely solve during my twenty-something years on this planet. And even on the occasions where I do remember to set my clock there is usually a fallout.

In the classic irresponsible fashion of youth, Hazel forgot that we turn the clocks back over the weekend because Daylight Savings Time ended or began – I can never remember which is which. So on Sunday, she was up and ready for action at six AM sharp. Megan and I weren’t as peppy, but so it goes with a human alarm clock.
The simple, arbitrary change to our timepieces pretty much bamboozled Hazel for the rest of the day. All the consistency we’ve meticulously built for her over the past six months was wrenched apart and strewn about the place like a scarecrow in a hurricane. Yes, Daylight Savings Time (DST [Not to be confused with WDST]) is truly an evil, winged monkey, with Hazel’s daily routine in its poop-flinging mitts. “My naptime is over there! And some of my afternoon walk is over there! And they took my bath time and threw it over there!”
I offer my deepest apologies for that quagmire of ill-worded imagery.

Yesterday, Nov 4 2007 was the last day of daylight saving in US. However, the Qlock kicks out last week on 29 Oct 2007. I check the Qlock setting and it shows the daylight saving ends at the last Sunday of October (29 Oct) which is wrong. The daylight saving should end yesterday. It looks the Qlock is not that accurate in daylight saving.Accidentally, I found out a new feature in Vista allow you to add additional clocks. It adjusts the daylight saving correctly. This is what I do:Click the Time at lower rightClick "Change Time & Settings"Click "Additional Clock" tabHere you go, just set the additional clocks that you want based on the time zone. Once you done, move our your mouse and you see the following tooltip:Then, click the time and see the following:Is it cool? The only problem is it only able to show 2 additional clocks. I think it still okay with me since I use the third clock (UK) once in a blue moon. This is only available in Vista but not in XP. Now, I start wondering s
It’s Monday again, which means it’s time for a new topic of the week. Since yesterday was Daylight Savings, I wanted to ask a couple of questions about that.
So, in the Fall, we go backwards, which essentially means our kids are going to bed earlier and waking up earlier. For me, the bedtime deal is great, but I am not the happiest camper in the morning. Instead of getting up between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m., I am now being woken up at 6:30 a.m.

In 2007, Daylight Savings Time started on 11th March 2007, three weeks earlier than normal. Daylight Savings Time is ending this year one week later than usual, on 4th November (tomorrow). Because in 2007 we've had four more weeks of Daylight Savings Time, your PC's date and time may be affected when Daylight Savings Time ends this weekend.
