Man’s Beard Lifts A Whole Child

“We know you’ve all been waiting with baited breath for a final update about the exploits of the man who has been lifting incredibly heavy objects with his beard, for charity. You’ll be delighted to find out that, after web donors smashed his fundraising target of $5,000, Eamon Daly has completed his final, epic beard-lift. His facial hair raised a 56lb weight off the floor – and of course, when we say ‘56lb weight’, we actually mean ‘a child in a sling.” w/ photo

Alphabet/Number Cake Pan

“Make any letter or any number… as a cake! Simply arrange the 2″ square blocks in the aluminum pan to form an endless variety of letter and number combinations. Grid grooves secure the blocks so they won’t move when the pan is filled with batter. Once the cake is cooled, remove the inserts. You’ll be left with a perfect centerpiece—great for birthdays, anniversaries or any special occasion. Includes instructions for creating 10″ or 14″ letters and numbers, as well as several novelty cake designs.” w/ photo

Solar Powered Water Bottle Cap

“The lightest, brightest LED cap available. Turns your water bottle into a solar powered lantern. This small, lightweight (just 2.6oz) cap fits on any “standard” water bottle (2″ wide mouth) such as Nalgene, Camelbak, GSI and most others, turning your bottle into a solar-powered lantern. With clean, green solar energy powering your lantern there are no more burned out batteries to worry about or replace (adding to our already toxic landfills).” w/ photos

“If only the world of Willy Wonka were real, with skyscrapers made from caramels, chocolate rivers and cities built of shortcake and whipped cream. Living in an edible world is only a dream, but these 10 examples of architecture made from food show that smaller scale versions can be almost as fun.” w/ photos + video
