Maybe this will be the death knell of the mega cruise ship, which based on either previous Boatlopnik or Earther reporting, I can’t remember which, seems like an unequivocal net positive for the earth. From labor, human rights, and environmental perspectives, the cruise industry can't die fast enough 

In Japan, LHD is actually a sign of status. This is why car manufacturers like Ferrari, Lamborghini, and Mercedes make a good number of their cars left-hand drive.

If you look at modern aircraft displays, many of them have gone back to skeuomorphic engine displays because they are easier for pilots to glance at and quickly interpret the necessary information.

The van driver should have pulled over on his own Accord. Now he’ll going to get a Civic lesson on hit and runs. Hopefully the punishment Fits the crime and he goes on an Odyssey to his local penitentiary.
