EXPENSIVE X-rays!
X-RAYS of Marilyn Monroe’s
chest and pelvis have sold for a
cool US$45,000 at a Hollywood
Legends memorabilia auction in
Las Vegas’ Planet Hollywood over
the weekend.
The three x-rays sold for more
than 10 times their pre-sale
estimates, and were a product of
Marilyn’s visit to Cedars of
Lebanon Hospital in 1954.
Other memorabilia under the
hammer at the rather macabre
auction included the last chair
that Marilyn sat in for a photo
shoot (US$35,000), a dress worn
by Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face
(US$56,250) and the Superman
costume worn by Christopher
Reeves in Superman IV
(US$32,500).
WHY drive to work when you can
simply get in the car and fly?
Following its receipt of a special
exempton from US aviation
authorities, a brand new flying car
is set to go into production for
commercial distribution.
The Terrafugia Transition is a
two seater front-wheel “car”
which has foldable wings and a
rear propellor.
In order to be able to operate
the Terrafugia, owners will need
to have clocked 20 hours of
flying time, and take off only
from an airport or piece of flat
privately owned land of suitable
size that has a 1,700-foot runway.
The car/plane has a range of
460 miles and a cruising speed
of 115mph.
Although not as yet fixed,
reports are estimating that the
Terrafugia will retail at around
one hundred and thirty thousand
pounds.
So far the manufacturer has
reported it is holding 70 preorders.
