![]() “It has to be temporarily supported until it's completely built, tied to the very top and then the temporary structures are removed. "It's one of those structures where you can't just keep building it and it will self-support,” says Verma. This new building is complicated, with very tight tolerances, adds Ankur Verma, MATT Construction vice president. With the help of a program called LS Dyna, the structure was run through multiple earthquake scenarios to ensure its best behavior in an earthquake, she says. The team designed a steel diagrid structure that is basically a large base frame that will surround the space shuttle, Nulman explains. “So we used a performance-based design, alternate means of compliance to the code and even designed the diagrid that encompasses Endeavour to a higher level of seismic performance than a typical building code-based design,” says Nulman. “When the earthquake event happens, how do we make sure that both the artifact itself is safe and the building doesn't collapse on top of it,” she says. On top of protecting the artifact, designing the building that goes around it was also a challenge, says Amie Nulman, Arup project manager. “Job number one for us was to protect this national treasure,” says Zekioglu. He says the base isolators will allow the earth to move up to 30 in. The shuttle will be attached to the pad with its original launch pad anchor bolts, which are made of inconel steel and were used when Endeavour took off from Kennedy Space Center in the early 1990s and 2000s.Ītila Zekioglu, project director for Arup, says his team worked with ex-Boeing engineers from the space shuttle program, which enabled Arup to “fine tune how much base isolation was needed to make sure that every structural element of Endeavor, including the solid rocket boosters and the external tank, was maintained to be safe under a major earthquake.” Below the pad will be six base isolators to protect the vessel from a seismic event. The shuttle, complete with its original rocket boosters, will sit atop a concrete pad in the middle of the gallery. In the end, the solution was to put it up and then build a temporary building around it to protect it.” “Do you put the shuttle up and build the building around it and risk something falling on it and destroying it, or do you build a building with a hole in it and figure out how to sling the shuttle into the building after it was done. The biggest challenge his team faced was designing a building for a priceless piece of artwork like the shuttle, Hyman explains. ![]() “The idea is to make it feel like you are standing out there on the launch pad seeing the shuttle in the dark, ready for takeoff.” Hyman says visitors will enter the shuttle display from the third floor and see the ship completely vertical in the launch position, with the curved-shaped building “essentially evaporating” behind it. The main part of the building will be three stories, with the shuttle gallery rising six stories, topping out at 200 ft to allow for the height of the vertical Endeavour. “The design will give a nod to the shuttle and the technology used to build it,” says Ted Hyman, managing partner with ZGF. Evidence Design is in charge of exhibit design.

Even though he lost $40,000 by not getting the bonus round right, Jimmy had a good attitude about everything, saying that he had a "great time" on the show. He added, "I've been to some abnormal gatherings," then stated, "He was way off his mark," referencing the issue from before the puzzle. ![]() The category was "event" and after all the letters were chosen, Jimmy was looking at a puzzle that showed "_ N _ ORM _ L _ _ T _ ER _ N _." He couldn't figure out what it was, thinking that the first word was "abnormal" and unable to get that out of his head.Īs Vanna revealed that the correct response was "informal gathering," Pat said to Jimmy, "I don't know where abnormal came from," and laughed. Things were off to a rough start when Pat chastised the contestant over standing in the right place, asking him multiple times if he was on his mark. It happened during the bonus round with a player named Jimmy. Now, he seems to have mocked another contestant. However, the thing that caused many viewers to call for Sajak's resignation was when he allegedly made fun of a player's lisp. And it looks like he is, once again, being slammed by fans for being rude to a recent contestant. Is Pat Sajak planning to leave Celebrity Wheel of. Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak has been involved in some controversies as of late involving his behaviors, which includes mocking and scolding contestants. The incident occurred during the first minutes of the show as Sajak introduced the players, including contestant Chris Brimble, who has a lisp. White also revealed that one of the contestants she is rooting for in this season, is rapper Snoop Dog. ![]() Others have been less charming, like when made a suggestive comment to a contestant, called a contestant ungrateful, accused a contestant of lying, and had a rather icy exchange with a player over a bad pun. Pat Sajak is facing backlash following Mondays newest episode of Wheel of Fortune, during which he appeared to mock a contestant with a speech impediment. Some of the stories are a little embarrassing, like when he said "lift the ceiling" instead of "raise the roof," and when he accidentally opened the prize for the final round before the puzzle or unintentionally revealed a puzzle's solution. He's made some headlines recently with his on-air behavior and comments. ![]() After hosting Wheel of Fortune for over 40 years, some people think Pat Sajak has gotten a little too comfortable in his role. ![]() At only $35 (£30 or AU$49), the tiny streamer turns any stereo with an aux-in port into a wireless music system, with multiroom capability and 24-bit/96kHz playback for the audiophile crowd. If you're on a budget and hunting for the best deal to free music from your iPhone, our favorite Wi-Fi music player remains the diminutive Chromecast Audio from Google. If you're ready to shop, here's a quick overview of the Wi-Fi speaker landscape and be sure to consult our ever-updating list of best Bluetooth speakers too. (See "wireless adapters" below for some better AirPlay options. There's also the Amazon Echo, which offers voice-controlled music options (sans iPhone) over Wi-Fi, but also works as a standard Bluetooth speaker, too.Īpple also offers a Wi-Fi standard called AirPlay that offers better sound quality than Bluetooth, but AirPlay-compatible speakers tend to be more expensive. If you're interested in piping audio into two or more rooms, look at the prices and features of other products in the same product "family." All Sonos products work together, as do Yamaha's MusicCast, LG's Music Flow and Bose's SoundTouch products, to name a few. On the other hand, if you're at home with a solid connection, Wi-Fi speakers have their own benefits: They generally don't sound as shrill and lifeless as Bluetooth speakers and they're better for streaming music to multiple rooms in the home. The Bose SoundTouch 10 connects to your device over Wi-Fi and comes with an app that can save your favorite internet radio stations as presets. Wireless audio is by no means a new medium for speakers, but Bluetooth has become the standard in recent years for its sheer simplicity and low-cost benefits. But the best models are better than ever, and you can get some great ones at prices below $150 (£110 or AU$200) or even below $100.Ĭheck out a list of our favorite Bluetooth wireless headphones here. Yes, they have disadvantages: They still don't sound quite as good as wired headphones, and they need to be recharged. Wireless headphones come in all shapes and sizes, with features like active noise cancellation, fitness analysis and even augmented-reality access to fine-tune your aural environment. While it's true that sending an audio signal over Bluetooth requires further compression and processing that already mar the sound of digital audio files, most people welcome the trade-off if it means they'll never have to untangle a headphone wire ever again. ![]() ![]() If you want to cut the cord entirely, Bluetooth wireless headphones are the way to go. Sure, you'll need to lug around the 3.5mm adapter if you plan to plug into non-Apple sources, but the big advantage of Lightning is that it can supply power and data at the same time, so headphones like the new JBL Reflect Aware can now deliver active noise control in a compact earbud design.Ĭheck out the full list of Lightning headphones you can buy right now. Want to split the difference between a dongle and wired headphones? Headphone manufacturers like Audeze and Philips have already introduced models with a Lightning connector in place of the 3.5 plug. My colleague David Carnoy raises another interesting point: Apple could take advantage of the Lightning port to release certified powered accessories - things like noise-canceling headphones (without the bulky batteries) or maybe a dongle-size headphone amp. ![]() Apple's AirPods may look weird, but they'll change the headphone market.Apple's iPhone 7 is a familiar phone for unfamiliar challenges. ![]() There are currently 16 on the 1 Bedroom waiting list, 13 on the 2 Bedroom waiting list and 9 on the 3 Bedroom waiting list.

The live performances of the song were heavily praised by music critics and fans. ![]() Adele performed the song on several award and television shows including the 2011 Brit Awards, 2011 MTV Video Music Awards, Jimmy Kimmel Live! and The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Critics praised the video for being simple and perfect for the sound of the song. The video showed Adele walking alone through the streets with a sad look on her face. In July 2011, it became the first single of the decade to sell a million units in the United Kingdom and it was certified Platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), as well as being certified 5x platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) in the United States.Īn accompanying music video for the song was directed by Jake Nava and it was filmed in Paris, France.
