Paris public transport authority RATP has come up with an etiquette guide for tourists on how to navigate the city’s subway system. The Manuel de Savoir-Vivre
is an e-book containing 12 humorous rules for tourists to follow to
ensure a pleasant ride on the metro. It was the result of collecting
thousands of suggestions from commuters over several months. The
guidelines are accompanied by helpful illustrations and are aimed at
improving tourists' manners, and educating them on the dos and don’ts of
riding the subway. Some of the rules are tongue-in-cheek, such as “Have manners:
Share your new musical tastes on your social networks. Today, you can
express yourself in silence” and “Be helpful: Hold the exit door for the
person behind you. In life, never pass on the chance to come across a
pretty glance”, while others are common sense. The guide is currently only available in French and you can check it out here. (designtaxi)

When Ferrari wanted to race in Formula 2 with its new V6 engine named
after Enzo Ferrari's son Dino, the company faced a problem. They needed
to build enough cars to satisfy the homologation rules, so Ferrari
turned to Fiat for help. A deal was struck with Fiat to build the Dino
Coupe and Spider, and with this, Ferrari got its chance to compete in
Formula 2. Danny Soukup always loved the way the Dino Spider
looked, so for decades he worked his way into a position to buy the car
of his dreams. There is a lot of history surrounding Fiat and Ferrari
during the time period of this car, and Danny gives us a look into this
as well as the design, thoughts, and inner workings of a Fiat Dino
Spider. He also shares the new perspective into life that his car has
given him. (petrolicious)
