NEW YORK 2000: ARCHITECTURE AND URBANISM BETWEEN THE BICENTENNIAL AND THE MILLENNIUM


About Cooper LightingHALO's 2006 recognition continued, being named the 2006 Best in Class award winner in the Lighting Fixtures Category for Interior Products by Professional Remodeler Magazine. The awards are the result of input from the magazine's commercial and residential remodeler readership.The Sony KDL32EX301 � Blending Seamlessly In Any Living Room SettingThe KDL32EX301 is included in Sony�s popular BRAVIA line of high-quality television sets. This TV model perfectly blends well to any living room environment without looking out of place, or ugly for that matter. It features a high-quality finish, and its overall performance is sure to rival, and will even outweigh the capabilities of other more expensive models.Equipped With Cinema Mode and 24p True Cinema TechnologyThe Television is also bundled with a Freeview digital tuner, and a 24p True Cinema technology, to make home theatre viewing more fun and exciting. With having a Freeview tuner, you don�t have to pay any monthly subscription fees, or sign any contracts, because all you need is an external aerial connection to get the digital signals. The Freeview digital tuner provides over fifty free radio and television channels, making it a cost-effective entertainment alternative to paid services such as Sky and Virgin.

New York 2000 makes for a grand visit to a stolid and only sometimes adventurous city, and yet it needs more of those visual connectors that bring the city alive. For example, the new Time Warner Center is shown in all its shining commercial glory at Columbus Circle, but nowhere do we look down from it at night onto the circle itself, newly designed by the Olin Partnership. With its illuminated fountains surrounding the Christopher Columbus monument and rivers of car lights swirling around from four different avenues, New York may now boast of its own glamorous Place de la Concorde. The reader will have to come see this for him/herself.
