The Power of Yoga
Everyone keeps telling me about the beneficial effects of practicing Yoga, but this is too much. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen what Yoga can do for older people, but that doesn’t make these photos any less impressive. I was around five or six the last time I was able to bring my foot […]

Clown Funeral – Tragically Hilarious
Seemed like a catchy title, but there’s really nothing hilarious about it, just tragic and bizarre. These photos were taken at the Fairview Cemetery, in Springfield, where 79-year-old Norman Thompson, member of the Antioch Shrine Funster Clown Unit, was buried, on May 29. His clown-friends dressed up for the occasion and honored Norman, for the […]

The CarGo Concept may not be the best-looking car out there, but with the ever-worsening traffic, it’s just what we needed. CarGo is a battery-powered vehicle with three different configurations.

Bull Wins the Fight for a Change
It doesn’t happen as often as it would if the fight was actually fair, but it’s nice to see the underdog win for a change. Israel Lancho had the misfortune of getting impaled by a bull, last Wednesday, in Madrid. The bull’s horn went in 8 inches and doctors said it was a miracle that […]
The Multi-Angle Bike
I could totally see Fred Flinstone riding one of these things. Not much is known about this weird multi-angle bicycle, only that it was invented by Guan Baihua, a Chinese man who thought he should give people ‘an alternative to the normal, boring bikes.’ It doesn’t look too fun to ride, with a polygonal wheel […]
Tire Shoes – A Crysis Must-Have
Believe it or not, shoes can be a luxury item in poor countries. But we humans are resourceful creatures, so we rarely let lack of money stand in our way. Case and point, these guys in poor African and South-American countries use old tires to make their own slippers. Sure they may not make to […]
