Airbus has unveiled the futuristic design of a transparent plane that will come around sooner tan we think! for panoramic views. The plane is designed in such a way that the flyers would be able to see through the cabin and the roof. With this futuristic travel option, the business class and economy class will be replaced with custom-made sectors that offer space for relaxation, interaction and working.

The see-through aircraft cabin will come with various options that will allow the rider enjoy panoramic views outside the aircraft. The comfortable seats could be made to take up any size and shape for each passenger. If we talk about entertainment, the boring small TV screen will be replaced by a larger Interactive zone together with virtual holographic golf courses or virtual clothes shopping.

According to the Airbus engineering executive vice-president Charles Champion say,

"Our research shows that passengers of 2050 will expect a seamless travel experience while also caring for the environment. The concept cabin is designed with that in mind, and shows that the journey can be as much a voyage of discovery as the destination."

You Tube user Suzyj87 now has a permanent collection of her friends right to hand, as it were. Who need a smartphone?

Of course the question begs – how does she add new friends, and what happens when she unfriends someone? Laser removal?

She said it said took months to get all the profile pictures onto her arm. I daresay.

Rapper T-Pain has been credited with the trend after he got a Facebook tattoo on his arm that read, ‘You don’t have to like me’ with a Like logo on it.

U.S. Breathes Sigh of Relief As Tsunami Soaks West Coast But Causes Little Damage

By Natalia V
People along the coasts of Hawaii and the West Coast held their breath as a tsunami raced across the Pacific at 500 mph threatening to strike with waves as high as 9 feet high, but what arrived did little more than soak the beaches and cause traffic jams.

They breathed a sigh of relief as the tsunami turned out to do little more than delight surfers along the California coast and irritate thousands who rushed to higher ground.

The biggest danger appeared to be dangerous currents along the coast.

The 8.9 magnitude earthquake that rattled Japan today triggered a tsunami that sped across the Pacific Ocean at a velocity that matched that of a commercial jetliner.

Tsunami warning sirens went off from Hawaii to Alaska and Oregon. Evacuations jammed roads and prompted fistfights at gas stations, and the federal government prepared to deploy emergency relief teams.

Is It The End Of The World In Dubai?

By Natalia V
Reports came out yesterday stating that the islands shaped like countries are sinking back down into the water.
dvtogetty33187460.jpg
The project has been in trouble for years due to the debt-ridden state of Dubai as well as the logistics of building hundreds of islands in the middle of the water. The picture above shows the project back in 2006 but more recent reports tell of a more misshapen development plagued by erosion. At a property hearing, Richard Wilmot-Smith QC, a British lawyer for a company that ferries people to the islands, told the tribunal that the land is gradually falling back into the sea. Penguin Marine sought to get out of its contract with the developer Nakheel, saying that fewer people are going to the islands is and that the project is essentially falling apart.

Work on the islands has reportedly been stopped for over a year. The project is becoming an ocean wasteland, a half-finished project of rocks and sand surrounded by breakwaters. Work has stopped inside the manmade lagoon and instead of neatly defined islands in the shape of recognizable countries and continents, ragged sandy blobs pushed barely above the water remain.

SideNote: The UAE Money has always been in Abu Dhabi.
Dubai is, and has always been an over hyped mess.
