POPSBeijing's Space Age Olympic Stadiums These are the spectacular arenas that will host thousands of spectators and athletes in the Beijing Olympics next month.It is clear that the Chinese organisers have spared no expense - and hired some of the world's leading architects - to ensure their venues are of the highest standard. A total of 10,500 athletes and seven million spectators are expected to arrive in the city when the Games begin on August 8. The arenas - which for two weeks will be the focus of worldwide attention - have set a stunning precedent for the organisers of London's 2012 Olympics. Many of the buildings use recycled rainwater in their air-conditioning systems or have specially insulated walls to ensure they stay cool in the sun.

POPS45 Amazing and Incredible Artificial Islands Artificial islands — those created by humans rather than natural means — constructed in the distant past and becoming increasingly rampant in recent years have been built by all sorts of revolutionary and bizarre methods and materials, from construction upon existing reefs, drudging of sand and blasted rock, to stainless steel, and even trash.

POPSTennis in Dubai -- to rj3sp I loved your pictures of Dubai and was reminded of these photos I had seen a couple of years ago. They're horrifying to me. My legs would not even hold me if I were that high! I was reminded of the Assyrian, Babylonian and Persian Empires of the ancient world and their amazing and elaborate architecture. They are rising again.

POPS"Spray-On" computing unveiled by Scottish scientists We are seeing this kind of technology in the Nintendo Wii and this is a very, very primitive form of what we will be demonstrating on Friday. As a huge fan of the Wii, I can only dream of the day that you spray on your controller. That's one great way to alleviate all the broken tvs and windows. Although I'm sure somebody would end up throwing themselves through a window when jumping for that tennis ball that get's returned on the opposite side of the court. Sounds to me like the idea from the movie lawnmower man isn't that far off!
