Clive Palmer, seorang milyuner tambang asal Australia, adalah  penggagasnya. Ia memiliki rencana untuk membuat replika dari kapal  Titanic dan menamainya Titanic II. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://cdn.kaskus.com/images/smilies/matabelo1.gif" title="Matabelo" /><br /><br />Titanic II dijadwalkan akan mulai berlayar pada akhir tahun 2016.  Keistimewaan dari Titanic II adalah ia akan memiliki desain interior  yang sama persis dengan pendahulunya, hal ini dilakukan agar penumpang  dapat merasakan seolah-olah berada pada kapal Titanic yang sesungguhnya.  <img alt="" border="0" src="http://cdn.kaskus.com/images/smilies/jempol2.gif" title="2 Jempol" /><br /><br />Titanic II mampu mengangkut 2435 penumpang dan 900 kru. Kapal yang  berada dibawah bendera Blue Star Line ini akan dibangun di CSC Jinling  Shipyard Cina dengan perkiraan biaya sebesar 400 Juta dollar <img alt="" border="0" src="http://cdn.kaskus.com/images/smilies/cool2.gif" title="Cool" />.  Palmer mengatakan bahwa sudah ada 40.000 orang yang menyatakan berminat  untuk mengikuti pelayaran perdana Titanic II padahal kapasitas Titanic  II sendiri hanya 2435 penumpang. Bahkan ada 16 orang yang menyatakan mau membayar hingga 1 juta dollar hanya untuk ikut pelayaran perdana tersebut. <img alt="" border="0" src="http://cdn.kaskus.com/images/smilies/matabelo1.gif" title="Matabelo" /><br /><br />Berikut adalah tampilan Titanic II kelak berdasarkan simulasi komputer. cekidot gan <img alt="" border="0" src="http://cdn.kaskus.com/images/smilies/jempol2.gif" title="2 Jempol" /><br /><br /><div class="spoiler"><div class="smallfont" id="bbcode_div" style="color: inherit;

Baoer 388 Fountain Pen

I was on a family vacation a few months ago and, as luck would have it, there was a fountain pen proprietor relatively close to where we were staying. I decided to go "souvenir" shopping with my son, and for some odd reason my Garmin navigation system guided me right to the pen shop's doorstep.<br /><br />I was able to resist the urge to buy another pen for myself, but I caved when my son asked me to buy him something as a souvenir. I gave him an allowance of only ten bucks and was surprised when he actually found a decent fountain pen for only nine dollars:<br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6bdu1wIAOblWKsR7xJFKw7d0h1dEFFnAbeST8YIQRcQqaA0NDlKOT1L_kXiiIyoIGermah7SB0epVmZfS1JLK2-2VPWj-ElWWGA2zjyR3UC4yKj8JtYVzyEY3T54a1MziUixVUgHqcFI/s1600/IMG_6252.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6bdu1wIAOblWKsR7xJFKw7d0h1dEFFnAbeST8YIQRcQqaA0NDlKOT1L_kXiiIyoIGermah7SB0epVmZfS1JLK2-2VPWj-ElWWGA2zjyR3UC4yKj8JtYVzyEY3T54a1MziUixVUgHqcFI/s200/IMG_6252.JPG" width="150" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Baoer 388</td></tr></tbody></table>The pen looks somewhat pleasing to the eye, and it has a body that is made of metal. The pen was not offered in different nib sizes, so I assume that it has a medium nib on it. It came with a converter, and it accepts standard international ink cartridges. The pen feels pretty solid in the hand, and it weighed in at about 25.2 grams with the converter inked up.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggn8Klqp330DBfvAb9jepZoWrdPfMwD-zFKwhMx9D4KUAtHg243pwwSbYfqIqbqVMaYUepZXbXIXX8r1YGj8qWcta_0F6e41Smvv_tp5MthaUGVjG2OILizhf3DBmzHD8R-CobFN3Pg1k/s1600/IMG_6255.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggn8Klqp330DBfvAb9jepZoWrdPfMwD-zFKwhMx9D4KUAtHg243pwwSbYfqIqbqVMaYUepZXbXIXX8r1YGj8qWcta_0F6e41Smvv_tp5MthaUGVjG2OILizhf3DBmzHD8R-CobFN3Pg1k/s200/IMG_6255.JPG" width="200" /></a></div><br />The nib performs in a satisfactory manner. It's not the best nib I've written with, but it's certainly not the worst. It has decent flow and writes smoothly most of the time. I have experienced some skipping incidents, but nothing out of the ordinary for a cheap pen.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4OP_DJ-Ntaacho5x_-synZfxURNsVNxSZ7m2R6-kHc3dfoHseJUPSOCE24fbQES_JpeDBxJoAGK8mw72ZBP_kX27vLcbR2WQyf2JXLdo-EcDBpGbXZHUzU5r5WzL8D93trNaua3Gjo6I/s1600/IMG_6254.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4OP_DJ-Ntaacho5x_-synZfxURNsVNxSZ7m2R6-kHc3dfoHseJUPSOCE24fbQES_JpeDBxJoAGK8mw72ZBP_kX27vLcbR2WQyf2JXLdo-EcDBpGbXZHUzU5r5WzL8D93trNaua3Gjo6I/s200/IMG_6254.JPG" width="150" /></a></div><br />My kid likes the converter and the gold tinted nib of the Baoer 388. I think its a great pen for him because I won't lose any sleep if he breaks it, trades it for a Pokémon card, or loses it. That said, he may be over this pen already because I recently overheard him saying: "I wish I had a GOOD fountain pen, like one of yours."<br /><br />Anyhow, my takeaway is this: the Baoer 388 is a decent choice for a beginner fountain pen. It's a "real" fountain pen with a converter, and it's compatible with standard ink cartridges, which makes it convenient. I would still recommend the Pilot 78G as a first option (I think the 78G writes better), but the Baoer 388 is a nice alternative.
