Which color, size or sex is

Bye bye Venus
Wednesday, 06 June 2012
Seven telescopes pointed on our star has allowed us to admire one of the most fascinating and rare that nature offers, the transit of Venus across the Sun. So rare an event that has occurred in the nineteenth century and never occurred in the twentieth, which will repeat again in 2117. We’ll not see it

Flying? Do it yourself
Wednesday, 06 June 2012
It’s called Jodel but it’s not Tyrolean. To build it you need a design, a wooden frame like an IKEA closet, Dacron, the engine of a Beetle, the brakes of an Apecar and a basement or garage where to work. It has the colours of a Lego toy but it flies, and you can also

Bookcases: weird is good
Wednesday, 06 June 2012
Extravagant bookshelves… the web is full of photo galleries. The interesting thing is that the designers have managed to combine the functionality of the object by placing their books to particular and extravagant appearance… I’ll almost dare say: trendy.

The ill-treated: Pink Floyd, More
Wednesday, 06 June 2012
PINK FLOYD, Soundtrack from the film MORE, EMI 1969 It’s easy to say Pink Floyd. Everyone says they love them. Once at a market I met a guy who said he loved Pink Floyd and Pooh (!!!). Maybe he was a bit confused, but his eyes did light up when I mentioned Pink Floyd. He

Flying with historical wings
Wednesday, 06 June 2012
What is a tourist flight? On a travel site we see that it’s an “actual flight organized as per special rules and procedure solely for tourist purposes”. In other words, for those who love airplanes but do not content themselves with just a plain airline flight, with an investment of EUR 500 or more they
