The previous record was the $1.8 billion paid by Kushner Cos. of New Jersey in January 2007 for 666 Fifth Ave., also in Manhattan.Buying the GM Building gives billionaire Mortimer Zuckerman's Boston Properties, the biggest U.S. office landlord, an iconic, 50-story white marble tower with 2 million square feet of offices at the southeast corner of Central Park. The deal helps New York developer Harry Macklowe, the seller, pay off some of his $7 billion in debt. It may also give a lift to the New York office market.

I'm still playing it 10 years after its release and I can't wait for the sequel. There is a Starcraft's custom map/mod called Tower Defense. Your purpose in this mod is to kill all units before they reach the other side of the map. If a unit reaches the destination you lose. Your only way of stopping those units is by building and upgrading different kind of towers. You pay for the towers and the upgrades with the money you earn by killing creatures. There are many flying units, armored units, fast units, bosses that come wave after wave, with each wave getting stronger as time goes by. This sounds simple and silly but it's exactly the opposite. It's an extremely addictive and enjoyable puzzle game. You could call it "antilemmings on steroids".Desktop Tower Defense is a flash version of the game with some minor differences.

| Tower Developers Afraid of Foreign Players | | 2008-01-09 01:22:50 | | TEMPO Interactive, Jakarta: The Association of Telecommunications Tower Infrastructure (Aspimtel) has said it is concerned over foreign developers that have started to expand their market in Indonesia. Aspimtel has asked that the government make a policy to protect domestic developers. “Everything is dominated by foreign parties. How can they own the infrastructure, too?” Tagor H. Sihombing, Deputy Secretary General of Aspimtel, told Tempo last weekend in Jakarta.“Don’t let us only be spectators.”Aspimtel’s concern has been voiced in the run-up to the issuing of the regulation on joint telecommunications towers. The government will obligate telecommunications operators to the joint towers together with other operators. Tagor confirmed that domestic developers or entrepreneurs are already able to fulfill the demand for towers. Tagor said that foreign players have larger capital compared to domestic entrepreneurs. Generally they can submit proposals to maintain more than 1,000 towers. National entrepreneurs are only able to maintain less than 500 towers.

| O-14 tower by Reiser + Umemoto RUR Architecture P.C | | 2007-10-19 10:00:00 | | L'agence d'architecture Reiser + Umemoto RUR Architecture P.C., créée en 1986 à New York par Jesse Reiser and Nanako Umemoto, a conçu à Dubai une tour à destination commerciale avec une peau extérieure, qui permet de rendre captif l'air ambiant dans une colonne et ainsi provoquer son refroidissement avant sa pénétration à l'intérieur, réduisant ainsi le besoin de climatiseurs.
Située dans le quartier d'affaire de Dubaï, cette tour nommée O-14 est haute de 91 mètres.
The Reiser + Umemoto RUR Architecture P.C. agency created in 1986 by Jesse Reiser and Nanako Umemoto has conceived a commercial tower in Dubai with an outer skin that allows ambiant air to be captured in a chimney effect, and thus making it cooler before entering the building, reducing the need for air conditioning.
Located in the business area of Dubai, this tower named O-14 rises at 91 meters.

| Lessons From the Ivory Tower | | 2007-08-17 11:15:00 | | Everyone plays a role in teamworkIn the world of academia and academic publishing, giving and sharing credit are hallmarks of the trade — and the driving force behind innovation. It is this very tangible recognition of their work that is the coal for the creative engines (or perhaps I should say ethanol for the hybrid cars) that are the professors and the researchers in the field.Too often in the business world, a team’s work goes unnoticed while CEOs and other managers receive credit for the diligent research, creative thinking and long hours of their underlings. Consequently, much of the expertise and worth of team members is unrecognized, untapped and not adequately shared with the rest of the group. While managers would argue that their staff is paid well for humbly completing their task, true innovation is almost always spurred on by the promise of achievement, career development and, yes, recognition.Managers can get more out of their team by giving individual members the cha... | | By: Gordon Whyte's Blog of the daily challenges of an | | |

| Tower Village Becoming Toys "R" Us | | 2007-08-14 18:48:00 | | I was in Greenwich Village yesterday, and I walked past my old haunt, the old Tower Records store on East 4th Street and Broadway (pictured). It has been empty since last December 22, when the chain officially closed for good. I had been wondering who was going to take over that very valuable piece of real estate. Yesterday I finally found out who will.I saw a sign in the window on Broadway that said that Toys "R" Us will be taking over, and they will be "open in time for the holidays." I would guess it will be up and running by late November, around Thanksgiving.I will definitely check out the new store when it does open. I would also bet it will be one of the more surreal experiences of my life when I do walk in there.I thought Tower would be there forever. I was proven wrong.... | | By: The Mighty Quinn Media Machine | | |

| Tower of Foil - Faster than your eye... | | 2007-08-06 09:03:00 | | As regular visitors would know I've become quite a fan of the musical universe of Sweden's Tower of Foil over the past year. So needless to say I was pretty excited when the band contacted me a few weeks back offering me the opportunity to post an exclusive pre-download of the title track of the band's new EP Faster than your eye. The EP (which will be the band's 11th since 2000) will be released on Friday, August 10 (for the ridiculous amount of €3), but as always it will also be possible to download the 3 tracks for free from the band's webpage, if you cannot afford to spend a little pocket-money. The number of members has varied through the years, but on the new recording the band should more accurately be called a duo, as the current line-up consists of Daniel Björck (vocals, guitars, keyboards, music & lyrics) and Tomas Larsson (guitars). Both are also members of The Idle Hands and among several other side jobs Daniel played piano on the Celestial album Dream On released e... | | By: Hits In The Car | | |

| Burj Dubai: The Tower that Slaves Built | | 2007-08-05 23:33:00 | | Will the Burj Dubai mark the top of the Dubai property boom“…Tall building syndrome is a well known phenomenon. The topping out of the world's tallest buildings has frequently happened at the point when a local market turned down… When it is completed next year the Burj Dubai will be a symbol of Dubai's achievement in quadrupling local GDP in the past decade. Then the global competition to build higher will take a new turn, and Australian James Packer has just announced plans to build a super-tall building in Las Vegas…â€Touch the sky“…High-rise housing has a rich history that embraces the very top and the very bottom of the social pile, serving paradoxically as the preserve of both the super-rich in their glamorous skyscrapers and the poor in their tenements and concrete slabs. It is the ultimate dream of the modernist architect, offering up the minimalist visions of Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe as well as the extravagantly sculptural forms of the latest blockbuster buildings. It is a form that fascinates and seduces planners, developers, designers and homebuyers. And this has never been more true than today…â€The Tower that Slaves Built“…According to news reports Burj Dubai is set to overtake Taipei 101 and the Sears Tower as the world’s tallest building in the coming months. The Burj, which means tower in Arabic, will have 124 floors upon completion, as well as a luxury hotel and four luxury swimming pools along with offices and residential units. Designed to resemble a glittering desert flower, the Burj Dubai when completed will also be the tallest manmade object ever built on earth… Indeed, given this iconic position on the human landscape, the Burj is not unlike the Egyptian pyramids of yesteryears which were also testaments to the wealth and might of the burgeoning Pharoanic kingdom and commanded awe and respect from all who viewed them. Undoubtedly the United Arab Emirates is now a world trading giant, having successfully harn... | | By: ChileSoc | | |
