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!

Virginity for Sale: $5000

Selling your virginity online is not something new. But it was never SO cheap. Don't get me wrong. I wouldn't buy this girl's virginity, but $5000 don't seem like a lot of money compared to such deals that we've seen lately. For example, 22-year-old American Natalie Dylan has netted a $3.7 million offer in 2009 and an Italian model was selling hers for 1m Euros in 2008. This 18-year-old girl Lera is making headlines in Russia right now after she posted these photos to her blog.

15 Horrifying Couples That Shouldn't Procreate

For centuries unintelligent and rather unattractive people have been allowed to breed freely which is why the world is starting to decline so rapidly. Now I'm not agreeing with the people who say that there should be laws against ugly human breeding because that's not the job of the government. If we want to get rid of the uglies we should start by getting rid of the grub worms that are in our soil because ugly people love grub worms. Another way to get rid of ugly is through ultrasonic devices. They create a high pitched sound that will make the ugly people think there is another ugly person in the area. Ugly people are very territorial.

Unusual MP3 Players

When you're looking to purchase an MP3 player (that's not an iPod) at your local electronics store, you know what to expect. There are different models based on size, colour, screen display and of course, cost. If you're looking for something out of the ordinary, chances are you probably won't find anything at the nearest retail outlet. But that's not the case for Internet stores.
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

An elderly Chinese woman has stunned her family and fellow villagers by growing from her forehead a horn than resembles a goat's. Grandmother Zhang Ruifang, 101, of Linlou village, Henan province, began developing the mysterious protrusion last year. Since then it has grown 2.4in in length and another now appears to emerging on the other side of the forehead.The condition has left her family baffled and worried.
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.
