Hi, we are considering building next year and thinking about polished concrete for the kitchen/meals/living area. Just wondering if its cold? Slippery? Easy to keep clean? Expensive? The house we rent now has black high gloss tiles and they are a nightmare!
Posted 25 February 2012 - 08:42 AM
We have had polished concrete put in to our open plan (reno).
No, it is not cold. It can feel cool but we have not had winter with it yet, although we have underfloor heating so we should never really experience a cold floor.
It was not cheap but should last for quite a while. Often people think it there are tiles there.
We avoid spilling water on the floor as it can be slippery but have not had any problems with "slippage" as yet.
Colours like red and orange that get spilt on the floor can seem to cause stains but generally everything comes off. It is easy to clean.
Our floor is white concrete with neutral coloured stones in the mix. It looks a treat. If you look at my "look at my openplan" thread you should be able to see the floor in the pics.

Love polished concrete flooring, but has to be the 'right' kind of building IMO - warehouse, loft, industrial kind of feel...
It is expensive, so not a cheaper option at all.
that's my two cents anyway

My GF has this on her first floor which is mainly open plan, hers was stained as well
It didnt feel cold, and she said it was supposed to have the hot pipes through it but it never happened and its been fine in Sydney winters....it looked fantastic and with 3 kids she said it was a godsend and easier than floorboards...

Interesting read.
We are building now, and our slab got laid last week. We are going polished concrete in a lot of rooms, using it as thermal mass to help keep our energy bills down and stabilise the house temperature. We have gone a colour and a nice stone mix. It is expensive, but using it as thermal mass as we are should help pay for itself.
I have a blog, and update it regularly. The slab will be getting polished in the next week or so, as soon as it has I will be posting pics, feel free to check it out.
Good luck making your decision.

Slipped on my grandparents polished concrete flooring when I was a kid. It hurts.
Posted 26 February 2012 - 09:44 AM
We lived in a house for a few years with polished concrete floors. I would never do it again. It caused me and DH terrible foot, leg and back pain because of the lack of shock absorbency. We could never walk bare foot around the house.

I know this is an old thread, but how do you guys that have it, clean it? Just enjo mops?
Posted 06 February 2013 - 06:18 AM
I use Sugar Soap or a low Ph (i think that is the right term) product to clean. Just use a mop and broom. Stains i use BiCarb soda.
Posted 06 February 2013 - 01:34 PM
Ahh, okay thanks Katpaws... I have a few scuffs (I think from dragging boxes around) so the sugar soap should help get those off!

Panel rules Brooks can stay in office
Send this to a friend
- Dave Williams
- Staff Writer- Atlanta Business Chronicle
Georgia Rep. Tyrone Brooks will not be suspended because federal charges accusing him of mail, wire and tax fraud are not related to the performance of his office, a panel of three state elected officials ruled unanimously Friday.
Brooks, D-Atlanta, was indicted last month on 30 counts after a federal investigation accused him of pocketing more than $1 million in contributions from a nonprofit charity he founded in 1990 and the Georgia Association of Black Elected Officials.
During a brief hearing Friday before the three-member panel, former Gov. Roy Barnes, acting as Brooks' lawyer, cited a provision in the state constitution that allows Georgia lawmakers to be suspended only if they have been charged with crimes relating to their elective position.
"It has to be an act connected with [performance] of the public office," Barnes said. "The constitution prevents the removal."
Under a process established in the state constitution for elected officials charged with crimes, Gov. Nathan Deal appointed the three-member panel to determine whether Brooks should be suspended from office while his case is adjudicated.
The Republican governor named to the panel GOP Attorney General Sam Olens and two legislative Democrats – Rep. Stacey Abrams of Atlanta, minority leader in the Georgia House of Representatives, and state Senate Minority Leader Steve Henson of Tucker.
During Friday's hearing, Barnes objected when Olens, who was presiding over the panel, refused to allow witness testimony.
After the hearing, Barnes said that when he was governor, two suspension hearings involving former state Sens. Diana Harvey Johnson of Savannah and Van Streat of Nicholls included testimony from witnesses.

Published: 12 May 2011
by Carey Goldberg, Beth Jones and Pamela Ferdinand
(Piatkus, £13.99)
She chose his sperm because his exam scores were better than hers. Donor 8282 was also 6ft 5in tall, blond and blue-eyed. So far, so clichéd.
But what happened when 39-year-old New York Times writer Carey Goldberg ordered eight of his vials at $175 a pop is an extraordinary true story of our times. It charts the lives of three high-flying friends - all journalists and all members of the "I can't believe it - I forgot to have a baby" generation. But being scarily intelligent East Coast go-getters, they don't let a lifetime of failed relationships stand in the way of motherhood.
The penny drops for Carey when she overhears her scientist boyfriend tell a colleague he was looking for "somebody who really attracted me".
Oops. That was enough to send her marching into the arms of donor 8282, while continuing to try her luck on a dating website, where she quickly comes across and falls in love with Sprax, who, despite his unfortunate name, loves Mandelstam's poetry and is an outdoors adrenaline junkie.
We then get introduced to Carey's friend Beth Jones. After six years of marriage to a complete prat called Russell, she arrives home one night to be told: "I want a divorce and I don't want to talk about it." Russell simply hands her a sheet of paper listing the pros and cons of their marriage, including "sex not satisfying" and "incompatible spare-time activities". American men - don't you love their self-obsessed honesty?
Fortunately Beth, who teaches at Harvard, lands a divorce settlement worth $10 million. At 37, she is a rich women who only wants what money can't easily buy - a baby. So Carey, who has managed to persuade Sprax to be a father if not a husband, offers Beth the vials she no longer needs.
On then to Pam, the award-winning Washington Post journalist who recently met Carey at a cemetery tour of New England Spiritualists (is it any wonder these women are childless?). Most of the men she knows through work are editors or criminals, so she resorts to a multitude of losers on JDate.com before meeting Adam, "a nice Jewish boy" who turns out to be not so nice. One day she finds a note he's written to himself saying: "Pam may not be the most beautiful girl but she has a good heart." Adam gets the push and you can guess where the increasingly broody Pam is heading.
Three Wishes is a perfect girlie page-turner for Londoners with loud biological clocks, packed with hilarious and tragic anecdotes, plus lots of gynaecological detail. A big hit in America, the film rights have been sold to the company that made The Kids Are Alright, the lesbian film starring Annette Bening and Julianne Moore.
"Turkey basters" could well become a new film and literary genre but I was left wondering what became of Donor 8282 and his nine children. Now that's a truly great real life story waiting to be written.

5 ways the EPA's power plant rule will affect business
Send this to a friend
- Kent Hoover
- Washington Bureau Chief
- Email | Twitter | Google
The Environmental Protection Agency's proposed rule to cut carbon emissions at existing power plants could raise electricity prices and drive U.S. manufacturers to countries that don't mind dirty coal.
Or it could save businesses and consumers money and spur innovation, while protecting coastal communities from rising sea levels and reducing health care costs.
Both scenarios are being painted in reaction to EPA's proposed regulation, which requires electric utilities to reduce carbon emissions by 30 percent from 2005 levels by 2030. Power plants account for one-third of all greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S.
The rule gives states flexibility on how to meet this carbon reduction requirement.
Here are five ways the proposed rule would affect businesses:
The cost of generating electricity will increase
The carbon emissions mandated by the rule would speed up retirement of coal-fired power plants in the U.S. and force electric utilities to turn to cleaner fuels for power generation. It also could lead to carbon capture requirements for natural gas.
This transition could cost utilities billions of dollars, costs that will be passed on to their customers, according to business groups such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. It estimates consumers will pay an average of $17 billion more a year for electricity as a result of the rule.
Manufacturers use one-third of the energy produced in the U.S., and they've benefited from relatively affordable energy in recent years.
"Today's proposal from the EPA could singlehandledly eliminate this competitive advantage by removing reliable and abundant sources of energy from our nation's energy mix," said Jay Timmons, president of the National Association of Manufacturers.

GOOD WILL HUNTING - The Park Bench Scene
By Nobby
"One of the most powerful scenes in the film. It sums up what wisdom is. Robin Williams plays the part of 'trust me, I know more than you here' without it coming across as too patronising. It feels like he's reminiscing on a part of his own life. His face is etched with pain. You can almost see the penny drop in Matt Damon's face towards the end of the scene."
By Sasha
"Mork and Mindy is possibly the first TV show I ever watched. It's definitely the first time I ever really laughed. Mork, an alien from the planet Ork, introduced us to an out of this world character, Robin Williams. And it was there,in his rainbow braces with his famed Nanu Nanu handshake, that we fell in love with a genius comic who brought us all so much happiness."
By Terry
"My favourite Robin Williams movie is 'What Dreams May Come'. Favourite moment in the film: when he finds himself inside his wife's painting!!"
Let's have a look...
By Kamila
" In One Hour Photo Robin Williams takes us on a journey far from where we usually expect him to take us. We explore darkness, obsession and a purely chilling scenario of a maniac that claims to have the right to walk into our lives in his boots. Williams' eerie performance and physical transformation pumped all the thrill into this otherwise average thriller. But I've always believed Robin Williams. I believed him when he made me laugh and I believed him when he made me cry and even when he made me think about the complexity of the soul and ironically of the loneliness that leads to decisions that can't be overturned..."
By Andy
"Not surprisingly, given the business I work in, my favourite Robin Williams movie is "Good Morning Vietnam" - When I first started working in radio, "Good Morning Vietnam" had just been released and it had a big impact on this impressionable 13 year old.

Hotel investors focus on Asia, 1.700 new top hotels
Friday, 8th March 2013
Source : TOPHOTELPROJECTS
Asia is ahead by a nose: with more than 1,700 hotel construction projects the hotel investors focus is on the Far East.
The billions of investment are mainly going to China currently there are more than 520 new hotels under construction in the Middle Kingdom in India there more than 295 new hotels planned. This data has been revealed by a study of TOPHOTELPROJECTS, the worldwide leading provider of global b2b hotel data.
In Japan there are 13 new top hotels in the pipeline besides the high saturation of the hotel market. The largest hotel project with 376 rooms is the Marriott Hotel in Osaka, which is supposed to open in spring 2014. With 346 rooms a new Hilton Hotel arises on Okinawa; opening is expected for early 2014.
Further outstanding hotel projects in Japan are the Ritz-Carlton in Osaka (136 rooms / opening May 2014) and a stylistic Andaz Hotel in Tokio (164 rooms/ opening early 2014).
But there is also removal: the former Grand Prince Hotel Akasaha in the centrum of Japans capital will be torn down.
This removal will not proceed as usually by a wrecking ball but with a new technique, removing floor by floor. The once 40 floor high hotel tower is already shrunk by the half. The area should then house a new skyscraper, certainly including a hotel.
Vietnam is an international hospitality hot spot. A lot of outstanding resorts already exist in this paradisiacal surrounding and there always arise new ones. One outstanding project is the Six Sense Resort Latitude Saigon River (
The eco resort comprises 150 rooms and villas and will open its doors late 2013. A further Six Senses luxury resort currently arises in Phu Quoc/Vietnam. The 136 suites property will open in April.

Compassion's Toll on Society of "Owners" Too Poor to be SickQuicklink submitted by Douglas Drenkow Permalink
|That crapshoot called health should never be the dividing line between comfort and poverty. In the United States, a health-industrial complex designed to punish the sick as it cures them is poverty's cruelest recruiter, and the middle class' gathering economic threat.

South Carolina game against Mississippi State sold out
If you don't have tickets to the Gamecocks game against Mississippi State Saturday, you'll have to settle for watching it on TV. The university ticket office says the game is sold out.
This the fourth sellout in the four home games this season for the 14th-ranked Gamecocks. The Florida game on Nov. 16 and Clemson game on Nov. 30 are sold out as well. The six sellouts this season are the most for the University of South Carolina since 1981.
Playing in the 80,250-seat Williams-Brice Stadium, the Gamecocks rank 14th in the country in average attendance at 81,752. In addition, Carolina ranks second in the SEC and 11th in the nation in capacity of the stadium filled at 101.87 percent.
The Gamecocks (6-2, 4-2 SEC) are riding a 14-game home winning streak, one shy of the school record of 15, set from 1978-80.
Saturday's game starts at 12:21 p.m. ET and will be televised by SEC TV.
Tickets remain on sale for the first-ever matchup between South Carolina and Coastal Carolina, on Saturday, Nov. 23.

GREENBURGH, N.Y. — Greenburgh officials are inviting town residents to join them Sunday at a ceremony remembering the nation's veterans.
Alan Hochberg, assistant to the town supervisor, said a dozen or so local veterans plan to attend.
"These men and women have sacrificed so much for what we call our democracy and our liberty," Hochberg said. "It's a matter of respect to show them that regular men and women care about the efforts and sacrifices that they made."
Greenburgh's ceremony will take place at 1 p.m. at DeSanti Plaza outside the Hartsdale train station.
The town began hosting the annual event in 2009. Town Supervisor Paul Feiner said he hopes people will continue the tradition by attending on Sunday.
Additional Veterans Day reminders:
- All Greenburgh schools, including Greenburgh Central 7, Edgemont, Elmsford, Maria Regina and Solomon Schechter, will be closed Monday.
- Greenburgh Town Hall and Elmsford Village Hall are closed Monday.
- There will be no sanitation pickup Monday. Collection will resume on a normal schedule Tuesday.

CHICAGO – The awesomeness of history loses any of its stuffiness with the incredibly fun, indeed educational show "Drunk History" from Comedy Central, its two seasons now released on DVD. Hosted by its creator Derek Waters, the show is a celebration of various historic figures and their under-appreciated true tales, as expressed by funny people narrating in the universal language of inebriation; their recounts are then reenacted by famous actors working with their given dialogue, dressed with the comic cheapness of a bloated biopic.

Wolff pleased with practice performance
Williams Martini Racing Williams development driver Susie Wolff says she is pleased with her performance after participating in Friday's opening practice session for the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim. Wolff ended the session 15th quickest of the 22 drivers but, like during her practice outing at Silverstone, her day was not without dramas. Her Williams FW36 developed a technical issue during her first lap of the session, forcing Wolff to return to the pits at crawling pace. "That was a tough moment because it was immediately clear when I left the pit lane that there was a problem with the drive, and then I lost it completely at the hairpin," she said. "I then said to...

Upcoming reissue Prime to have short stacks?
Monday, December 2nd, 2002 8:33PM CSTCategory: Rumors
Posted by: Professor Smooth Views: 61,153
Speculation has been high about the upcoming Convoy from Takara. As we all know it´s only the latest in a series of reissues done by Takara over the last couple of years. And fans have been wondering what they could possibly do to make this figure different. Already we know that the figure will include the ´energy axe´ used in More Than Meets the Eye/Arrival From Cybertron, but what else could they do? Well, one popular theory is that the figure could feature Hasbro´s new shorter smokestacks. To add fuel to the fire, there was recently a Takara Convoy prototype/test shot/ect that was found with the shorter stacks. Will Convoy´s latest reissue include them? Looks like we´ll have to wait until February to find out...

Download the Google Nexus 4 Toolkit v1.1.0 from here.
Install ADB/Fastboot Drivers
In order to unlock the bootloader of your phone, root and perform other adb/fastboot functions, the first thing users need to do is to install the adb/fastboot drivers. The drivers can be installed through the Toolkit.
a) Those users who do not wish to use Toolkit to install the drivers then they can try PdaNet for Android, download and run the 32-bit Windows 7/Vista/XP or 64-bit Windows 7/Vista and follow the instructions to install.
b) Once the drivers are installed, unplug the USB cable and switch off your phone. Hold the Volume Up, Volume Down and the press the Power button to boot the phone into Fastboot mode.
c) Navigate to the Control Panel on your PC and open Device Manager. You can see either the Fastboot driver is installed or you can install it manually.
d) Connect the USB cable. In the Device Manager a new item called 'Android 1.0' should pop up and then the drivers should install automatically. Upon the competition of installation you will have a new section in the Device Manager named as Android Phone without an '!' which indicates it is installed correctly.
Ensure that you have enable USB Debugging in Settings, Developer Options before connecting the USB cable in ADB mode so that the PC will detect the phone.
Note: In case the driver does not install automatically then double click the Android 1.0 item then click on the driver tab and select 'Update driver.' Then select 'browse my computer' and go to the Google Nexus 4 Toolkitdriver folder. Ensure that the sub folders are ticked. Drivers should then be installed.
Using Mskip's Google Nexus 4 Toolkit
a) Download the Google Nexus 4 Toolkit package and run to install the Toolkit to your computer. This installation will create a shortcut on your desktop called Nexus 4 Toolkit. You can have the option to include or exclude the drivers files at installation so if you are already having your drivers set up and are just updating the Toolkit then you can always untick the drivers.
b) After the Toolkit is installed, double click on the 'Nexus 4 Toolkit' shortcut on your desktop to run it. You can run the Toolkit with your phone either in Adb or Fastboot mode.
c) Once you enter the main Menu you will get to see 'Fastboot Mode' and 'Adb Mode' at the top. You will see your phone's serial number under the mode you are in at the time provided you have installed your drivers correctly.
d) Each option has complete and detailed information.
e) When you wish to exit the Toolkit, then use the X option from the main menu since this will terminate the adb process and not leave it running in the background.

I have worked with the Working Person's Store for about 2 years and couldn't be happier. We were trying to standardize our process for safety shoes and found it very beneficial to bring in the WPS Shoe Truck. Harry has been incredible to work with! He has provided excellent customer service and makes sure to bring out a great variety of shoes within our reimbursement range for employees. I am thrilled with the relationship we have built."

Brand new release from the acclaimed label and online boutique – in collaboration with Uncle Howie Records – presents the 360-degree story of Non Phixion's 2002 debut. Extensive input from all group members is encapsulated in a premium, 80-page, hard-cover liner notes book, with dozens of photos and images.
GET ON DOWN, the record label and online boutique dedicated to presenting and celebrating music with unique packaging and exclusive extras, announces one of their most impressive deluxe sets to date: Non Phixion's The Future Is Now (Premium Edition).
Compiled and constructed in full collaboration with the group, there are two different versions of the box, whose exterior measures 7 ¾ inches x 8 ½ inches x 2 ¾ inches. Both sets – with a total print run of 1,000 worldwide – feature the following common elements:
· 2 CDs, containing the original album vocal versions and instrumentals
· 3 7-inch singles featuring original 12-inch artwork: "Black Helicopters," "Drug Music," and "Rock Stars"
· An 80-page, hard-cover liner notes book featuring dozens of group-sourced photos and archival images, and in-depth interviews with all group members by author Chris Faraone
· Full reproduction of the group's press-only sampler cassette from 2000 (with early singles, demos, freestyles and promos): "The Past, The Present and the Future Is Now"
· Expanded artwork from Mear One's original album visuals
An ultra-limited version of the Premium Edition set features all colored vinyl (each 7-inch with a different color), in a print run of only 200. Beyond the three 7-inches listed above, it also includes a fourth colored-vinyl 7-inch, "I Shot Reagan," which was first made available by Get On Down on Record Store Day 2013 (on black vinyl).
The other 800 sets feature 7-inches printed with black vinyl. [Note: the black vinyl sets do not include the "I Shot Reagan" 7-inch.]
By the time Non Phixion's now-monumental debut album hit in 2002, the group had been on an intense and labyrinthine journey, considering that they had originally formed in 1995. At the same time, it was somewhat fitting for a group that was as explosive and unpredictable as they were talented. But no matter how The Future Is Now had come about and what path they had taken to get there, rap fans jumped on the album at the time, and still revere it to this day.
Featuring MCs Ill Bill, Goretex and Sabac [Red] with DJ Eclipse, Brooklyn's Non Phixion made their first waves as a group in the mid-1990s with the indie singles "Legacy" (1996) and "5 Boros " (1997), released on MC Serch's Serchlite Music. They fit perfectly into an era in New York City that had produced not only the Wu-Tang Clan, M.O.P. and Mobb Deep, but also underground firebrands and peers like Company Flow and the Arsonists.
Aggressive, brazen, intelligent, and never predictable, they were impossible to ignore. Not-to-be-missed live shows helped to build their legend and fanbase throughout the end of the '90s.

Every in-house team struggles with it at some point: not enough money to accomplish the job the way we'd like to. Free fonts and cheap stock photos may work in a pinch, but the phrase "you get what you pay for" definitely rings true for design. As the head of a small in-house team at the nonprofit National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA), I've found a few ways to improve our team's work by finding resources wherever I could.
If my team is working on a small brochure or report and the client says they have $5,000 to spend, I'll always ask if they can make it $6,000 or $6,500—enough to buy a few better photos or nicer paper, but not enough to break the bank. If that doesn't work, we'll typically complete the project on budget, then make two or three small but critical changes that nudge the budget up a bit. Then we'll show the customer both products. When they see the impact, there's a good chance they'll agree it's money well spent. And the next time they bring us a project, we'll encourage them to bump up the budget even more.
The same approach can be used on a bigger scale, especially when it comes to looking at your annual budget or the funds available for new hires. In most cases, asking for five percent more won't raise too many eyebrows, but if you do it year after year, it adds up.
Your design budget probably represents a small fraction of the money your organization spends. So rather than trying to increase your tiny slice of the pie, take a look at the other slices. After all, most in-house creatives spend the majority of their time serving other departments. For instance, when I wanted to revamp NPCA's tired annual report seven years ago, I asked the head of our development team if he would kick in $10,000. He agreed, recognizing $10,000 was a small price to pay for a polished marketing piece that would help him meet his $10 million fundraising goal. Even better, the money was permanently added to my budget the next year.
Making sure you spend every budgeted dime on the last day of the year is no easy task. Most careful managers end up with a little—or a lot—left over on day 365 and then frantically attempt to spend it all, often in ways that wouldn't be permitted in the first quarter (it's the "use it or lose it" mentality). Instead, two months before the end of the fiscal year, find out if any of your colleagues are in the same boat and then propose some long-overdue projects that meet an important need for your organization.
My chief responsibility is the production of National Parks magazine, which costs about $600,000 to print and mail each year—a huge sum. When my in-house team launched an internal PR campaign to encourage our coworkers to take advantage of the in-house team's expertise, we printed 100 branded T-shirts at a cost of roughly $500, and I coded the expense to the magazine, where it became a rounding error. Some might find this tactic a little underhanded, but as long as the expense is genuinely advancing your mission and you don't do it too often, I say it's fair game.
I've been hoping to hire one more graphic designer for my department for several years now, so each year, I ask our accounting department to show me what other departments have spent on freelance graphic design. Once that total tops $65K—and it will within a year or two—I'll show our management team that we could hire another designer at a salary that would save us thousands of dollars, allow our team to complete a lot more work and ensure we always have an expert in-house.
Another way to capitalize on the end of a fiscal year is to split a substantial cost between two years. A few years ago, National Parks magazine was in desperate need of a redesign, but it had a big price tag. So we asked our freelance design firm if we could pay for half in one fiscal year and half in the next. They agreed, issued two invoices, and the impact didn't raise an eyebrow.
Do you have other ideas about how to increase your in-house team's resources? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
Scott Kirkwood began his publishing career in Troy, Michigan, editing coupon books (yes, coupon books) but ever since moving to Washington, DC, in 1994 he's been writing and editing for nonprofit organizations including the Humane Society of the United States and the Child Welfare League of America. For the last eight years he's worked at the National Parks Conservation Association, where he oversees the group's magazine and other publications. And even though it's impossible to pick a favorite national park, he knows you'll insist on asking, so he'll reluctantly say Zion National Park in Utah.

Design feedback shouldn't be a painful process. In fact, if it's a painful process, I'd say someone's not doing it right. The most successful projects are usually ones with a collaborative workflow between a well-balanced team of designers, developers, project management, and of course — clients! It's essential to have a healthy feedback process, in which the client knows exactly what feedback is most helpful for the next round of revisions, and the designers and developers know how to translate and solve those problems.
I know, I know, both web teams and people who have hired web teams are out there groaning right now (we get it, and this isn't a soapbox). Everyone has had their fair share of difficult projects and poor communication, but it doesn't have to be that way. In efforts to improve the feedback process for web clients and design teams alike, I'm writing this two-part article about How to Give Good Web Design Feedback, and Turning Client Feedback Into Your Best Work.

By now there must be few
people who are unaware of the recent uproar surrounding the University of
California's rebranding effort. Seldom does
the media take such an active interest in design, so it was disheartening that they got their reporting so very wrong. The outcome
of that misreporting—fueled by an online petition and fanned by our very own
design community—has set back the course of design and cheated the university out of a progressive new identity.

cyberpetSyllabification: cy·ber·pet
Pronunciation: /ˈsībərˌpet /
Definition of cyberpet in English:
An electronic toy that simulates a real pet and with which human interaction is possible. Also called digipet or virtual pet.
Example sentences
- Loosely speaking, Creatures were cyberpets called Norns who operated in real time, were born with a few basic drives and had to learn from their environment - including how to deal with the baddies, called Grendels.
- The second-generation cyberpet, called ERS - 210, will be available in Japan from November 16 and cost around 150,000 yen - cheaper than the first Aibo which weighed in at $2,300.
- He has motion, devotion, he even has emotion - the new breed of cyberpet will soon be with us and, as far as his creators are concerned, he's only a tooth and claw off the real thing.

Richard Goldstone does not fit the model of alienated anti-Zionist Jews who promote boycotts and have no other involvement with Israel or the Jewish community. Quite the opposite. He is an active member of the community, is involved in Zionist groups, and has a daughter who lived in Israel.
So other explanations are needed for the harshness of his report on Gaza. From his activities, speeches and writings, some themes emerge.
Judge Goldstone's life is intensely focused on the "laws of war", in which he strongly believes, rejecting all debate or criticism.
My visit last week to the headquarters of one of the battalions stationed around the Gaza border was deceptively tranquil. The road leading to the base may still be full of craters created by Hamas mortar shells, fired in the years of bombardment leading up to Operation Cast Lead last January. But in the neighbouring kibbutz, work is going on peacefully in the fields, right next to the border fence.
For the first time in a decade, children in the nearby town of Sderot started the school year two weeks ago without having to first practise running to the bomb shelters.
One of the less known items on Binyamin Netanyahu's CV is his stint as the sales manager of an Israeli furniture manufacturer, before he joined the diplomatic service. The PM will need all his sales acumen now to market two totally different products to the American administration and the Israeli right wing in the run-up to the highly anticipated "peace summit" at the UN next week.
The suspension of Human Rights Watch senior analyst Marc Garlasco is a devastating blow for the reputation of a group which stands or falls by the independence of its reporting on government abuses.
It is hard to imagine why anyone would wish to surround himself with the ephemera of fascism.
And yet, it is theoretically possible for an individual to be fascinated by Second World War military history and remain objective when reporting on the Israeli-Palestinan conflict (one of Mr Garlasco's areas of expertise).
Israelis are a pretty divided lot. Ashkenazim fight with Sephardim, the Orthodox squabble with the secular, Arabs bicker with Jews and so it goes on. Little seems to unite this hot-blooded nation.
Yet when it was reported on Sunday that Asaf Ramon was killed in a jet fighter accident, arguments were set aside and people entered a period of collective mourning.
In the evening, as families sat down to watch the news, there was a feeling of déjà vu.
There was nothing edifying about the sight of trade unionists fighting each other in Liverpool this week over an attempt by the Fire Brigades Union to introduce a boycott of Israeli goods .
Did no one tell the brothers there is a recession on?
Beirut is abuzz with talk about Salah Ezzedine, a financier who bilked thousands of Lebanese out of their life savings before declaring bankruptcy late last month.
Dubbed the "Lebanese Bernie Madoff", Mr Ezzedine took a financial beating when the collapse of oil prices last year decimated his holdings in Eastern Europe.
In a desperate attempt to recover from his losses, Mr Ezzedine raised hundreds of millions of dollars from Lebanon's insular Shiite community by offering a reported 40 per cent annual return. In the blink of an eye, the money was gone.
Israel is a world leader in solar energy. About three quarters of all households use the sun to heat water, using a technology called solar thermal.
Israeli firms are also widely recognised as leaders in the field of solar electricity. For example, BrightSource signed a major deal in February to create a solar power plant in southern California, which will generate enough electricity for almost a million homes. A much smaller plant is planned for the Negev.
An Israeli Arab man has been indicted for allegedly passing on information about the IDF Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Gabi Ashkenazi, to Hizbollah, in a plot to have him assassinated.
Rawi Sultani, 23, is a law student from Tira in central Israel, who worked out at the same gym as Lt Gen Ashkenazi. He was first contacted by Hizbollah when he attended a summer camp in Morocco organised by Israeli-Arab party Balad.
The accusations against Ehud Olmert in the indictment go back 20 years, all the way to a plane ticket allegedly bought for his wife with illegal funds.
Rumours of financial wrongdoing, both on a personal level and connected to party finance, have been swirling around him since the 1970s. He still managed to become a senior minister, a two-term Jerusalem mayor, a prime minister and the second longest-serving Knesset member in Israeli history after the eternal Shimon Peres. How did he get so far and why finally now, after scaling every possible height in political life, is he facing trial?

Carus said the skiers who were in the southeast snowfield on Saturday "were lucky not to be in its path. This is not something where you quickly scoot out of the way. If you were anywhere on the slope it's hard to imagine people surviving it. People typically die when they're buried more than three-feet deep and this was up to 20-feet deep."
"There were a lot of people entering the mountains that now have well-developed avalanche paths and warm conditions in the alley lead people to believe it's spring-like, stable snow but in fact we still have winter conditions."
The Mount Washington Avalanche Center will continue issuing avalanche forecasts until June 1, said Carus, after which "we'll do forecasts for other hazards" on Mount Washington, including crevasses and ice-fall hazards.
