This hotel has only 19 rooms, but the sea view is guaranteed from all of them: Guntû is a luxury cruise ship sailing through the Seto Inland Sea in the Setouchi region of Japan, about 100 miles west of Osaka.
The ship, which is named after a local species of blue crab, was designed by architect Yasushi Horibe as a ryokan, a type of traditional Japanese guest house. Wood dominates the minimalistic, clutter-free interiors, created to convey a sense of serenity and detachment from urban life.

(CNN) — Ever been in an airplane that's landed sideways? Probably not given that it's a very tricky maneuver to pull off.
That didn't stop a TUI Boeing 757-200 make an incredible dramatic landing at Bristol Airport, in the UK, last week.
Storm Callum brought challenging high winds and stormy weather to parts of Britain last week -- so the aircraft's skilled pilot, Captain Brenda Riepsaame Wassink, had to go to extreme lengths to ensure safe landing.
Titanic が復活するかも❓ Titanic II として...

Blue Star Liner
悲劇の客船、タイタニック号、同型の姿で復活されるという話題です...
(CNN) — If you thought the long-delayed project to launch a full-size replica of the ill-fated RMS Titanic was sunk in the water -- think again.
Just like Celine Dion sang back in 1997, the travel project will "go on and on."
Australian businessman and politician Clive Palmer, who is behind the controversial initiative, announced in September that work on the ship had recommenced -- after a financial dispute with the Chinese government halted development back in 2015. The idea was first floated in 2012.
Allegedly the new ship will be an identical copy of the infamous liner, which sank in 1912 following a collision with an iceberg.
To avoid a repeat disaster, Titanic II will apparently be outfitted with plenty of life boats -- and will have a welded, not riveted hull -- plus modern navigation and radar equipment.

The timing was almost perfect. No snow was falling, but New Jersey just had its coldest morning of the season — with temperatures dipping down into the 30s across most of the state — when the U.S. Climate Prediction Center issued its early outlook for the 2018-2019 winter season.
So, will the Garden State get clobbered by snow and pestered with blasts of Arctic air this year? Government forecasters say th

For US$4950, you can spend a day learning how to fly the JB-10 with Mayman, the world's only FAA certified jetpack instructor (there's a nifty bullet point for the CV) and qualified pilot Boris Jarry. You'll do takeoffs, landings, hovering, forward, backways and sideways flight – Mayman says it's more or less a Segway in the sky and should be very intuitive for most people.
