Japanese are losing fish harvests due to Nomuras. They kill the nomuras caught in their nets, but nomuras will drop their eggs and sperm upon dying, therefore "seeding" the next generation. This makes the likelihood of catching more jellyfish instead of food fish. Japanese rely too heavily on the sea and are creating more of a mess with their policies.

Great article, thanks for sharing. Couple of comments; the monorail I remember seeing in a book as a kid back in the '70s and have a suspicion it was at Disney...
As to the anonymous commenter saying about the HST here in the UK being gas-turbine, they could not be more wrong: it is conventional diesel-electric.
They may have confused it with the experimental Advanced Passenger Train (APT-E) which was gas-turbine powered http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_APT-E
Cheers.

"Terrorist state"? That phrase has no meaning. Iran is a democracy.

if iran is a democracy, and the popularly elected leader of the country is a representation of the will of the people, then surely the people of Iran are insane. Ahmaninejad is a hitlerite kill-the-jews, kill-the-americans, kill-anyone-who-challenges-islam type; his support of numerous terrorist groups places him below sanity.

Stop believing all the propaganda about Iran. It is a developing democracy just as all the modern democracies today once were. Also it has a diverse population including a large jewish population who've lived there since the old testament (remember Daniel in the lions' den?). Does supporting organisations fighting illegal occupation make Iran a terrorist state? You should visit the place as they're famous for their hospitality.

Kinser - What state do you live in? And if you don't think that Iran is so beautiful in these pictures, then perhaps you should take a look at this:
http://www.worldisround.com/articles/73022/index.html
http://www.worldisround.com/articles/98910/index.html
And Kinser, I don't think Iran is any more terrorist than the U.S. is! I'll tell you why: First of all can you mention any terrorist activity where the terrorist or terrorists have been Iranian?
Iran supports Hamas and Hezbollah, but these organizations are no more terrorist than was the Contra which the U.S. supported. The CIA has also supported the murderous fascist "grey wolves" of Turkey, and several congressmen and the current U.S. establishment and Pentagon have supported /are supporting an anti-Iranian terrorist group by the name of MKO or MEK (Mujahedin Khalq Organization) which also happens to be listed on the U.S. list of terrorist groups! So I really can not see how you can think that Iran is any more a "terrorist state" than the U.S. is.
And finally here is another great album: http://www.worldisround.com/articles/343042/index.html

Kinser cracks me up. "And quite honestly i've seen better scenery here at my home state."
only an american would bother to post something so rude. plus it is like saying there is only one pretty girl, or only one good wine, or only one good swimming hole. "Quite honestly, " are there degrees of honesty? "we have better swimming holes in my home state.' home? state?
as for the terrorism charge, it is debateable and depends on your perspective. some would say bombing with depleted uranium is the height of terrorism. it is pretty clear that the people dodging the american bombs were terrified.
as with most things, i suggest you follow the money. some people are making billions from our war culture. all wars end up with arms sellers behind them. the people would like q chance to get along

My parents bought a D-series at the factory in 1959, drove it around Europe and then shipped it home. It was bronze, looks like the one here floating on orange balls. We kept it until the mid-70s, and it was one of the first cars I ever drove. It was one amazing piece of machinery. Thanks for this trip down memory lane!

Yes, the famous DS study. Citroen has to be praised for daring and innovative designs in the past and today. They went through a bit of a dullness phase during the 80s and 90s, but they're coming back strongly now. When it comes to design, these guys know their stuff.

That very special DS was made for the 1958 Universal Exhibition of Brussels.
It was an exhibition where a new kind of design begun.
People there were also amazed by the Atomium building: a crystal metal molecule made 165 billions times bigger!
That building stills up today and have just be resurfaced. So if you're in Brussels some times, be sure to see it! You can even go in and walk in the balls, up and downs stairs and escalators.
You can actually see a life size picture of the DS (the same picture) in the main hall.

The right hand drive conversion at the top is actually a US product intended for rural mail carriers. The base vehicle looks like a Jeep Cherokee or Liberty
at chapter 4, moving things, the second picture, the dark blue sedan charged with boxes, is not actually russia, but romania. thelicense plate is romanian, and the car make is a Dacia 1310, most popular car ever in the country
In part 4, most of the pictures are not from Russia: the 1st is, most probable, from India, for example. Well, 2/3 of all pictures here fiatue non-Russian cars :)
This post is very intriguing, it stirs my curiosity. People are fond of traveling from place to place. Its our nature as human beings.
But car safety should our main concern for us to enjoy more.
