World’s Largest Building : An Amazing Display of Modern Architecture!
New Century Global Centre,
acclaimed to be the world’s largest building is a vast wavy rectangular
box of glass and steel that will house shops, hotels, offices and a
faux ocean beach with a huge LED screen for video sunsets..
Pacing ahead of
Dubai in terms of largest building, China is on the path of growth and
development. Opened last month in the southwestern Chinese city of
Chengdu, New Century Global Centre has
19 million square feet of floor space equivalent to 329 football fields,
emerging above Dubai’s airport, the previous record holder. This building is about a third of a mile long, more than 1300 feet wide and about 328 feet high.
The New Century
Project illustrates that China's growth has spread from the country's
more prosperous eastern and southern regions to the west, where wages
are lower and the central government has encouraged development with
subsidies and tax breaks. The construction of the building is backed by
local governments and this largest building aims to boost the global
stature of the capital city of Sichuan province, known for its spicy
cuisine.
According to the plan, the building once completed will comprise of a water park with a 1300-foot coast and beaches under a gigantic glass dome, as its central piece and a 492-foot-by-131-foot LED screen above a section of water playing videos of an ocean horizon. The building is so large that up to 6,000 visitors will be able to sunbathe, play in a wave pool, sip cocktails or feast on seafood at a time.
It will also consist of two five star hotels, 14-screen movie theater and an ice rink.
In addition, set in a facsimile of a Mediterranean town under faux blue
skies, the building will also comprise of high end boutiques. The
shopping section in the building has been accessible to the public since
June and the building’s office space has been occupied for some time.

Samsung Galaxy S III explodes, injures 18 year old girl.
An exploding cellphone is no joke. A Samsung Galaxy S III exploded in the pants of 18 year-old Fanny Schlatter, and as you can see, it did plenty of damage to her thigh not to mention the handset. Now, we've seen people claim that their phone exploded out of nowhere only to find out later that the device was put in the microwave to cover up the fact that it had been dropped in the toilet first. Looking at this situation, one can see that this is not the case here.
There isn't much information on what caused the explosion, but the victim's paints had to be cut to prevent her from sustaining further damage.
The explosion took place at the girl's place of employment and Samsung Switzerland said that it is investigating and will probably send the phone back to Korea for a an examination.
