Stackable, Foldable City Cars
Posted on Sun Jun 29 2008
The vehicles are driven by robotic motors in each wheel, eliminating the need for any combustion engine, or even a transmission. This frees up a lot of space, so that the interior of the car is big enough for two, yet the exterior is about one quarter of the size of a regular sedan. Everything on board is controlled by a computer, and the car starts with the push of a button. The wheels have 360 degrees of rotation, which eliminates the need for U-turns, 3-point turns, or parallel parking! Mosquito Control

Charge Your iPod Using An Onion
Posted on Sun Jun 22 2008
Poke a hole in the onion to let more liquid in. Soak the onion in about 2 cups of the sports drink, until at least one cup has been absorbed by the vegetable. Who knew onions were capable of absorbing so much fluid? Once this step is done, dry the onion off and stick your USB cord into its side. What effect this has on the USB itself, and whether it can ever be plugged into a conventional port again, I have no idea. But, sure enough, the iPod turns on and begins charging— and as long as the onion has soaked up enough fluid, you can go for about 20 minutes!
