Kevin Scott's Bendable Bicycle
This bike design from British designer Kevin Scott is a bendable bicycle that you can literally wrap around a lamp post or a pole. It certainly will stop thieves from targeting your bike. The young Industrial Designer used a ratchet system built into the frame of the bike to make it possible to wrap the bike around a pole. The bike bends to lock onto itself, there's no need for a chain, a regular bike lock will be able to secure the frame and both wheels. His main objective was not just to secure all bike's components within the lock, but also to allow the bike to be stored in small spaces. A very cool bike design, indeed!

Wow, these pictures of redneck air conditioning are great! It must have taken a lot of work to compile all these. Somehow, these remind me of the site People of Walmart (okay, yes it's kind of sad to take pictures of people unawares and make fun of them, I agree, but I can't help but laugh at some of them).

Unusual MP3 Players
Not everyone likes to be old-fashioned and that's why the following MP3 players go beyond the boundaries of unusual. Even though some may be extremely wacky or weird, they do tend to do the job they're created for and that's playing your collection of music. But are they strangely cool enough for people to buy them? You be the judge.
101 Years Old Chinese Grandmother Grows Horn On Forehead
Her youngest of six sons, Zhang Guozheng, 60, said when a patch of rough skin formed on her forehead last year 'we didn't pay too much attention to it'.
'But as time went on a horn grew out of her head and it is now 6cm long,' added Mr Zhang, whose eldest brother and sibling is 82 years old. 'Now something is also growing on the right side of her forehead. It's quite possible that it's another horn.' Although, it is unknown what the protrusion is on Mrs Zhang's head, it resembles a cutaneous horn. This is a funnel-shaped growth and although most are only a few millimetres in length, some can extend a number of inches from the skin.
Cutaneous horns are made up of compacted keratin, which is the same protein we have in our hair and nails, and forms horns, wool and feathers in animals. They usually develop in fair-skinned elderly adults who have a history of significant sun exposure but it is extremely unusual to see it form protrusions of this size. The growths are most common in elderly people, aged between 60 and the mid-70s. They can sometimes be cancerous but more than half of cases are benign. Common underlying causes of cutaneous horns are common warts, skin cancer and actinic keratoses, patches of scaly skin that develop on skin exposed to the sun, such as your face, scalp or forearms. Cutaneous horns can be removed surgically but this does not treat the underlying cause.
