  • NO WEB FOR FRANCE - In the crypt of the Capuchin Church of Burgio, a magnificent village situated 100 kilometres south of Palermo,Sicily, Italy on January 2019 the dead are perfectly staged. In all, there are around 50 mummies, most in the upright position, all elegantly dressed. The women wear splendid lace dresses, a little faded, and the men their best hat. Almost all of these mummies date to the 18th and 19th centuries. The most recent were added at the beginning of the 20th century. In the shadows, illuminated with a small bright torch, Luisa Maria Lo Gerfo examines the skull of an elegant bourgeois deceased 150 years ago. Anthropologist, biologist, archaeologist and Sicilian mummy specialist, she regularly works on mummies whether they are in an upright position or elongated in richly decorated open coffins. She measures limbs, diagnoses diseases according to abnormalities and scars, inspects dresses, mantillas, costumes, top hats and scarves. "Not everyone could afford to be mummified", she explains. "The more one was part of high society, the closer one was to the altar, the heart of the church. The poorest were buried outside the church." Sicily will reveal over time a real research laboratory on mummification. It is spreading throughout the island and there is not an important village in sight that does not display the bodies of their priests, monks or citizens in the crypt of their church.

  • August 22, 2017 - inconnu - A motorcycle bus able to link small remote towns where roads are narrow, has been unveiled.The Siroco is a gyroscopic motorcycle-bus designed to carry multiple passengers at a time. Even though the body is around the size of a city bus—it would stay upright due to its advanced gyroscopic technology and a smart auto pilot control system.Canada-based Imaginactive designer Charles Bombardier said :” The Siroco is made to offer the same feeling as riding a motorcycle while it carries a dozen people in climate-controlled comfort. “Its panoramic windows would offer an excellent view of the countryside and LCD screens could be embedded in the window panels to stream online shows and movies, provide information about location and travel times for example.He added:” The fact that this vehicle has only one row of wheels would allow it to take on curves faster, take less space on the road, and save energy with an aerodynamic body. “The Siroco could be used to transport passengers between smaller towns with a population of less than 15,000 people and ride on existing narrow roads. Its suspension system could be designed to ride on rougher terrain or smooth pavement. The current seating arrangement is one centre aisle with a single row of seats on each side.The gyroscopic technology would permit the Siroco to stay upright at any speed, and it would balance itself when it’s turning or when weight of the passengers isn’t distributed equally within. The internal battery pack could also move with a motor to help adjust the centre of gravity. An onboard computer would calculate in real time the orientation, acceleration turbulence, and vibrations and make adjustments to make the ride more enjoyable for its passengers.The Siroco could be used to ferry passengers on routes that are not being serviced by major bus lines today. Its operating cost would be lower than a regular bus—if you factor in occupancyâ�

  • South Africa - Plettenberg Bay - 14 May 2020 - Alexander Ritchie holds a mantis in a garden in Plettenberg Bay. From Wikipedia "Mantises are an order (Mantodea) of insects that contains over 2,400 species in about 430 genera in 15 families. Mantises are distributed worldwide in temperate and tropical habitats. They have triangular heads with bulging eyes supported on flexible necks. Their elongated bodies may or may not have wings, but all Mantodea have forelegs that are greatly enlarged and adapted for catching and gripping prey; their upright posture, while remaining stationary with forearms folded, has led to the common name praying mantis."

  • The latest cost-saving solution to pack passengers into airline’s cheap seats has been unveiled. Although the company producing them still call the draconian-looking devices ‘seats’ the near-standing slope could equally be termed air saddles. Unveiled this month at Hamburg’s Airplane Interiors Expo the ‘Skyrider 2.0’ is designed by Italian aerospace interior design company Aviointeriors Group. And while it might sound like something from Star Wars the Skyrider 2.0 has much simpler appeal to budget operators as according to the company it allows ‘an ultra-high density in the aircraft cabin.’ An Aviointeriors Group spokesman said: “Its main feature is the original bottom that ensures an increased upright passenger positon allowing installation of the seat at a reduced pitch, while maintaining an adequate comfort. “The design of this seat enables to increase the passenger number by 20% allowing increasing profits for airline companies. Furthermore, Skyrider 2.0 weighs 50% less than standard economy class seats and the reduced number of components enable minimum maintenance costs. No company has yet announced plans to adopt the Skyrider 2.0 but there has been an air of resignation around the subject of standing seats since Ryanair first expressed interest in a more punishing version of the Skyrider eight years ago. Ryanair’s plans for standing on it’s budget flights were thwarted by regulators who scoffed at the idea of standing-room only in 2012 before trials were able to start. 26 Apr 2018 Pictured: Is this the awful future of flying?.
