Holland & Holland / Overfinch Range Rover with 1 year free liquor!
British sports gun-maker Holland & Holland and tuning firm Overfinch have built what they called the most luxurious off-roader ever built. I don't really know about that since I dont really anything i can compare it with but i'll take their word for it...
-5.0-liter 503HP Supercharged or TDV8 diesel versions
-20-inch alloys (22’s are optional), all season mud and snow tires
-special cast exhaust outlets along with the headlamp
tail light and the bumper trims which come from Overfinch’s depot
-top grade leathers with contrasting stitching, optional aviation-style quilted leather or Alcantara headlining
-Overfinch trimmed interiors with a 31-piece wood veneer kit also available in the choice of Olive Ash Gloss, European Burr Walnut with special diamond pattern inlay, Matt Gunstock Walnut and Piano Black Lacquer with silver inlays
-center console with an integrated refrigerator and a storage compartment
-trunk outfitted with a bespoke “cupboard” hand-crafted in veneers to match the interior woodwork
-three drawers fitted to carry eight further matching Holland & Holland crystal tumblers and flutes, shotguns, along with a cleaning kit as well as cartridges and the bag to carry them all
-Overfinch has plans to replenish all six types of drinks (Pol Roger Champagne, Balvenie single malt whiskey, Hendrick’s single batch gin, Ivan the Terrible luxury vodka and Willow Spring Water), which are housed in the center console, for a whole year to make you an addicted off-roader.

Chinese dude builds a fully functional sub
for some reason i would not want to go in this thing.
"Tao Xiangli, a Chinese inventor, is reported to have built a functional submarine:
Amateur inventor Tao, 34, made a fully functional submarine, which has a periscope, depth control tanks, electric motors, manometer, and two propellers, from old oil barrels and tools which he bought at a second-hand market. He took 2 years to invent and test the submarine which costs 30,000 yuan (US$4,385)."

yike bike - the 21st century penny farthing
yep. kinda dope.
"Released at EUROBIKE on September 2, 2009, the “YikeBike” by the Kiwi design team is a radical electric bicycle that just weighs 9.8 kilograms and folds to 67×56×12 cm to fit in a backpack. Featuring a small powerful 1.2 kW electric motor and controller that replaces chain pedal, gear box, mechanical brake, cables or levers, the YikeBike is gonna be the first bicycle on the market with electronic anti-skid brakes. Looking like a mini version of a penny farthing (mini-farthing), the vehicle also integrates lights, indicators and brake lights on a hard carbon light platform, ensuring the safety as well ease of the ride.
Intended for city journeys of up to 9km, the bike is capable of reaching a top speed of 20km/h, thanks to the high power brushless electric motor. In short, the zero emission bike not only allows a safe and brisk ride on cramped city roads, but also lets the users play their part in sustaining the environment. The YikeBike costs $4860."

almost...
"Monkey vs mouse: This lucky rodent came very close to being a lemur's lunch after straying a little too close to its cage.
The wild field mouse narrowly avoided the primate's outstretched claw at the Five Sisters Zoo in West Lothia."

Japan's new First Lady Miyuki Hatoyama: 'I went to Venus in a UFO'
something tells me that the japanese are totally accepting of weirdo behavior....
"It was in a book of interviews with prominent people, entitled Most Bizarre Things I've Encountered, that she revealed her extra-terrestrial jaunt which occurred during her first marriage.
“While my body was sleeping, I think my spirit flew on a triangular-shaped UFO to Venus,” she said. “It was an extremely beautiful place and was very green.” Her first husband suggested that it was probably just a dream — but Mr Hatoyama, she insisted, would not be so dismissive. “My current husband has a different way of thinking,” she said. “He would surely say, ‘Oh, that's great!’”
