The architectural firm Philippe Barriere Collective (PB+Co) designed this structure as a work of art combination of western medicine and natural alternatives through conservation practices and technologies.

The tower is wrapped with the layer similar to the skin that is able to swells and shrinks to control the temperature and the entering light by creating an internal air buffer zone.

Al Ain city government wants to build an iconic project that will realize the progress of environmental sciences, green technology, and medical treatment that is directly connected to nature.

The idea was then poured in a tower design that includes a Chelation Clinic, Integrated Dental Domes, and a Healing Center/hospital. The Clinic includes a Hotel Bungalows Residence for the international patients combining leisure and recovery processes.

The medical complex will be around Al Ain Lake, as the home to many species of plants and attract the birds, fish, and reptiles and other animals to create a biodiversity.

Project Napier: The Wild Turbo Honda Monkey That Took 20 Years to Build

Turbo Obsession - When we talk about iconic motorcycles with a cult following, the Honda Monkey instantly comes to mind. It's quirky, small, and full of character. For decades, it’s been beloved by riders around the world for its charm and compact design. But what happens when you take that lovable machine and push its boundaries far beyond its original purpose? Enter Project Napier—a mind-blowing transformation of the classic Honda Monkey into a turbo-charged drag monster that defies every expectation you might have of a small motorcycle.

Behind this jaw-dropping build is Adrian Mortimer from OORacing, who dedicated an incredible 20 years to crafting this beast. The goal? To reshape the tiny Honda Monkey into a machine that could dominate the drag strip while still keeping the soul of the original intact. What sounds like a simple idea turned out to be an incredibly complex project. Every inch of this bike had to be reconsidered, reengineered, and reconstructed—all while working around the limited space the Monkey offers.

The most jaw-dropping part of the transformation lies in the heart of the machine. The stock single-cylinder engine was pumped up to 170cc and fine-tuned to push out a staggering 50 horsepower. Yes, you read that right—50 horses from what was once a humble little engine. This massive power boost was made possible with a custom-developed turbocharger system, making Project Napier is the only Honda Monkey in the world sporting this kind of drag-spec turbo setup.

Fitting all the critical components—fuel pump, coil sensor, ECU, intercooler, battery—into such a compact frame was an engineering puzzle in itself. But Mortimer found a way to balance form and function, managing to squeeze all the necessary parts into the limited chassis without compromising the look or performance of the machine. What emerged was not just a visually aggressive bike, but one that actually lives up to its intimidating appearance.

Testing the limits of its potential, Project Napier was taken to the legendary Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah—a proving ground for speed records. There, the turbo Monkey hit a jaw-dropping 100 mph (around 160 km/h). For a bike of this size, those numbers aren’t just impressive—they’re astonishing. It takes a remarkable combination of skill, patience, and obsession to achieve such a result, and Mortimer’s commitment truly shines through.

Project Napier isn’t just a radical take on a classic—it’s a celebration of how far creativity and technical brilliance can go when pushed to the limit. While it started life as a humble Honda Monkey, this bike now stands as a one-of-a-kind machine with global recognition, built not for showrooms, but for speed and innovation. It’s a bold reminder that even the smallest motorcycles can make the biggest statements when in the hands of someone who dares to dream big.

 
Kept spur your adrenaline on the power of two-wheeled monster and stay alive with the true safety riding. God will forgive Your sins and so does the cops.... *** [EKA [23072016] | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | OORACING | RIDEAPART | PIPEBURN ]

Coffee dregs could reduce the levels of heavy metals in water

The residual waste of coffee that is often discarded because it is considered useless. However, through the study of five students of the Faculty of Public Health, Department of Environmental Health, University of Jember, namely Puput Baryatik, Uswatun Asihta, Wita Nurcahyaningsih, Azzumrotul Baroroh, and Herdian Riskianto, the coffee waste became useful materials to absorb toxins in the water, especially the heavy metal cadmium (Cd) which can lead to many diseases in the community.

According to Anita Dewi Moelyaningrum, a lecturer at the Faculty of Public Health, University of Jember said that the industrial and household waste are not managed properly, often the cause of environmental pollution, especially ground water. There three of heavy metals, ie lead, mercury and cadmium, commonly found in ground water or wells contaminated of heavy metals due to industrial and household waste.

"Waste is collected by community or waste that goes into landfills without separation between organic and inorganic, so the battery waste, plastic waste, as well as medical waste sometimes comes in to the landfill, and also the waste of pesticides packaging sometimes still mixed in one location at the landfill. Then the rain comes, with the help of natural processes as well, then a wide range of heavy metals can come out, flow through the ground water then go into the well," she said further.

Utilization of the residual waste of coffee that many discarded by the coffee lovers in Jember becoming a research subject of University of Jember students to find the model-based environmental management of organic waste.

Puput Baryatik, one of the students who conducted the research, said the results of processing the residual waste of coffee proven to reduce levels of cadmium in water polluted with heavy metals by more than 50 percent.

"Jember itself is one of the biggest centers of cultivation of robusta coffee in East Java. The result showed the decreasing of cadmium level was 55.75 percent with the concentrations of active charcoal of coffee dregs was 10 grams per liter," said Puput Baryatik, the chairman of the student researcher.

Anita Dewi added, the absorption of coffee dregs can be more optimally after converted into an activated charcoal form.

"To get more optimal absorption rate, then converted to the form of elemental carbon, so charred then activated with HCl, then neutralized again and then exposed to water contamined by cadmium heavy metal," explains Anita Dewi Moelyaningrum.

Puput hopes the results of research done by the students of University of Jember can help people, especially those living around the landfills and the area where the water is polluted, in order to utilize the residual waste of coffee to improve the quality of ground water in their neighborhood. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | VOA NEWS]
