NYC Spaghetti
11/02/09 - Pretty Cool
“What a brilliant use of packaging to create something so much more than the product itself: “I created this spaghetti packaging for a university project last year. The brief was to package one of 5 difficult items i.e. eggs, a rose, custard powder, spaghetti or marbles. I chose spaghetti. The spaghetti sits on a 3d model of the Chrysler building that was modeled on CAD by my friend Ben Thorpe. And then modeled out of high density foam at uni. Creating a spaghetti model of the Chrysler building!” Designed by Alex Creamer, a student at the University of Central Lancashire in the UK.” w/ photos
World’s Largest & Most Lavish Cruise
11/02/09 - Amazing
“Nautical fans got a treat today when the world’s biggest cruise ship sailed into British waters. The 20-storey, 1,180ft Oasis of the Seas dwarfed the Isle of Wight ferry as it made its way along the south coast to drop off hundreds of workers who have been making the finishing touches to its on-board luxuries. Enthusiasts flocked to the cliffs of Hampshire in the hope of catching a glimpse of the ship – not that they could miss it. It is three times the size of the QE2 – and five times as big as the Titanic.” w/ photos

The Last Delivery Birds In The World
11/02/09 - Odd Articles
“These pigeon couriers are members of the last avian postal service in the world – and could give Royal Mail a few ideas. The birds, from the U.S. city of Fort Collins, Colorado transport digital images of intrepid white water rafters to be processed in what is known as the ‘Pigeon Express’. They fly from the top of the Cache La Poudre River down to a base at the bottom where thrill-seekers can collect their snaps. The concept harks back to the days before the telegram. The birds are owned and trained by Rocky Mountain Adventures, who fly 19 pigeons five times every day, usually travelling a distance of between 20 and 40 miles. Using the pigeons is quicker than driving down from the river and it solves the problem of producing photographic memories for the white water rafting tourists. It takes them just 20 minutes.” w/ photos

“According to tradition, guys don’t give a crap about home appliances. To most dudes, home appliances are like tampons – sure, if we really wanted to, we could figure out how to use one, but who wants to? The average bachelor is satisfied with whatever junk he crammed into an empty beer case when he left his parents’ place. But there’s a whole world of cool stuff for your place that won’t make you feel like a old housewife when you buy it.” w/ photos
