"A pious, peaceful man,
York had fought his country's enemy only after great deliberation and had to be convinced that war was sometimes necessary."
1 On this day let us remember
Sergeant York.

"After his wife left him, Tony Alleyne set out to create the
ultimate bachelor pad, painstakingly turning his flat into a Star Trek set... The 500-square-foot apartment features voice-activated lighting, LED lighting, running lights, air-conditioning—but no bed... A few years ago Mr Alleyne suffered from sciatica and was advised by his GP to sleep on the floor. 'It cured the sciatica and gave me the opportunity to convert the bed area into the Transporter area,' he says. 'Bed space is overrated...' His wife—who owns the flat—put it up for sale, but it fell through.

"At
Ceiling Scenes, we believe the ceiling has a fundamental right to take part in the
ambiance of any
interior space."
-- From their catalog (.pdf). Personally, I think
tin ceilings are much more nifty, but I can see how these photographic tiles could really brighten up a dull office or
classroom. Too bad they're so cagey about actually telling you how much they cost...

Where does Number 1 go? Interior designer/nerd gives his apartment the "Away Team Eye" once over and manages to make something pretty darn interesting. Sure it makes a great conversation piece, but could you live there?
More photos make the "future perfect" world of Star Trek look a little too busy for actual living.
