I don’t know what it is with me and tall buildings. But this one especially amazes me. There is no name yet for this city-in-a-skyscraper. But what we do know is that it is going to be approximately 8184 Ft tall (2447 Meters!!) and it will be built in Dubai - Jumeirah City. This city-in-a-skyscraper will consume 37,000 megawatts per hour per year, with a 15MWH peak usage, but as the plans show, it has been designed to generate most of it using wind, thermal, and solar power. It has the environment in mind.
Dubai’s current architectural marvel the 3,280 feet-high 200-floor Nakheel Tower (still under construction) is nothing compared to this! The building is so tall that its main elevator is in fact a vertical 125mph bullet train. Personally I do think it looks breathtaking. Everything cool is being built in Dubai at the moment. I need to save up so I can go there for a holiday~

Named the “Nakheel Tower” or the Al Burj, this enormous megastructure will stand approximately 4,593 ft. Thats 1.4 kilometres high!! It is to be built on the Dubai Skyline and will have 100 floors, making it the the tallest man made structure ever built. Wouldn’t it be cool to live on the top floor!
When constructed (date has yet to be released), the tower would be planted at the Dubai Waterfront and will be a combination of offices and apartments.. This sky scraper will rival the Burj Dubai which currently stands at 707m (2,320 ft) and its still under construction. This is a proprosed picture of what the Al Burj may look like:
If it is built, I think it would be a true marvel of human engineering and will show us that we can literally build anything if we put our minds together and do it!

Many of us want a response from our users on various aspects of our site. And I found this great plugin while searching for a customizable contact form that fits in with my design. I personally think Cform is the most customizable plugin I have ever used. It lets you customize every single option and an advantage would be the use of Ajax in this plugin. It allows your readers to submit the form without refreshing the whole page.
cform is a highly customizable, flexible and powerful form builder plugin, covering a variety of use cases and features, from attachments to multi form management, you can even have multiple forms on the same page!
Localization
It offers convenient deployment of multiple contact forms throughout your blog or even on the same page. The form submission utilizes AJAX, falls back, however, to a standard method in case AJAX/Javascript is not supported or disabled. Plugin Homepage | Author Homepage | Plugin Download
