Wooden postage stamp from Switzerland


Wooden postage stamp from Switzerland 08/05/2004 12:10 PM
woodenstampDavid sez: "Following the w ooden turntable comes the wooden postage stamp! 'On 7 September 2004, Swiss Post will issue its first-ever wooden stamp. Worth five Swiss francs, the "Swiss wood - naturally" stamp is dedicated to Swiss wood... is made of high-quality fir and is 0.7 mm thick.'"

"Yahoo! News reports, 'Designed by Thomas Rathgeb, a graphic artist who works for Swiss Post, the stamps are made from 120-year-old pines felled in northern Switzerland. 'Rathgeb's design focuses on the sustainability and uniqueness of this natural, living material — the structure of the wood, integrated into the contemporary design, produces a different picture on each stamp. This makes each stamp unique, just as each tree is unique,' said Swiss Post."

"The Swiss Post site offers a v ideo clip (WMV) of the production process." L ink

imageSamsung is the latest company to use gold and diamonds on a piece of electronics, this time coming on the "YP-W3L." It's somewhat difficult to tell where the gold and diamonds are on the thing, but frankly, I like it more that way. Samsung didn't really skimp on the features, either: it's probably one of the first mainstream players I've seen that does MP3, WMA, Ogg Vorbis, WAV and ASF. Not that anyone actually uses ASF, but you know what I mean. There's an FM radio somewhere in there too. Available up to 1GB, according to infoSyncworld.

This article on the founder of IKEA reveals some interesting tidbits...

  • one can move to Switzerland and negotiate a fixed income tax rate related to the value of one's house
  • Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA, is richer than Bill Gates now, partly because of the slide of the dollar and partly because Billg has been giving money away; the 77-year-old guy is worth roughly $50 billion
  • like our local hero George W., Mr. Kamprad has had trouble with alcoholism (perhaps we need to encourage young people to drink more?)

Alcohol is supposed to be so bad for brain cells, productivity, etc.  How can we explain the fact that so many hypersuccessful people are or were alcoholics?
