Labrador Named Fred is Dad to 9 Ducklings. Wait till you see the ducklings riding on Fred's back. It would make a cool duckumentary - to follow the ducklings as they got bigger, you could imagine them swimming with Fred in a pond. A labrador named Fred has adopted nine ducklings after their mother disappeared near Britain's Stansted Airport.

Giant Flamethrowing Spider Is Actually A DJ Booth. Arcadia is a giant flamethrowing spider built to be a DJ booth at festivals. It has over 1,000 moving parts and it is mostly made from recycled military scrap material. The legs of the spider come from a government disposal yard, and they were giant cranes used for scanning trucks and containers at ports. Some of Arcadia's fire is also biodegradable and it is collected from chip fat from restaurants and chip shops around Bristol. Arcadia weighs 50 tons and is 50 feet tall. The fire can shoot 50 feet above the structure. Some of the DJs that played on it include Carl Cox, Fatboy Sli, Andy C, Chase & Status, and Skrillex

A U.S. federal judge rejected Alibaba Group Holdings Ltd.’s move to block Dubai cryptocurrency firm Alibabacoin Foundation from using the Alibaba name for its Alibabacoin virtual currency. In his ruling, Judge Paul Oetken of the Southern District of New York (i.e., Manhattan) denied Alibaba’s motion. This is amazing - suppose you came out with an Amazoncoin or a Microsoftcoin or a Facebookcoin, and you got away with it. These clever folks from Dubai have an Initial Coin Offering or an ICO for an Alibabacoin, and Jack Ma from Alibaba Group can't do anything about it. Alibabacoin contends that China’s ban on initial coin offerings eliminates any possibility that consumers in China will be confused into thinking the Alibabacoin is associated with Alibaba Group.

Ravens can talk! This is Mischief the White-Necked Raven they are found throughout eastern and southern Africa, and are common near human habitation. Cool facts about White-Necked Ravens: Their main diet is fruit, insects, and small reptiles, but if they find a small tortoise to eat, they will lift it up and drop it to the ground to break the shell. Ravens are some of the smartest of all animals. Ravens display a strange behavior in the wild called "anting". They roll around on anthills, let the ants crawl all over them, and then they chew up the ants and rub them through their feathers. Scientists are unsure why they do this.

Machine Washes Your Clothes While You Cycle. If our hi-tech, modern way of life ever ends, like the animated movie I Pet Goat 2 predicts will happen tomorrow, this bicycle clothes washer could become the next big thing among the surviving, but always off-the-grid folks. Any remaining supplies of gasoline will be gone within a month, and hand-crank flashlights and shortwave radios will be very popular. Why not start to think about how to live without electricity and gasoline. Imagine how handy a human powered old-time speeder would be on the train tracks - remember Charlie Chaplin used them in his movies, two guys standing, taking turns pumping the handle to drive the speeder. The motto of folks learning to live without modern amenities will be: Pretend You're Camping

Will space junk end our modern way of life ? - The Kessler Syndrom.  This is ironic - of all of the threats to our hi-tech way of life, we're only one satellite collision away from a chain effect causing catastrophic damage to our complete society. No more GPS, you have no idea how much our lives could change without real-time stock market updates - all the stock exchanges could crash overnight, Oil Tankers stop moving and run aground, Self-driving vehicles all crash at once, are you starting to get the picture? Without GPS, all your location data fails, just think of how many places GPS and other satellite-based data are used and expected. The good news is that you don't have to worry about if it will happen, because given enough time, human errors and omissions, combined with the magic of the butterfly effect and mechanical failure, it's guaranteed to happen. The hilarious part is that this video is a very high quality presentation on the Kessler Syndrome, and it's only got 5 views in over 7 months on YouTube, because everyone is playing Farmville and watching cat videos.

I got a tattoo that plays music. This is so lame, it amazes me. The concept is interesting - your tattoo plays music. Here's how it works - the tattoo is basically another form of a QR Code, that only one custom app can interpret. Then once it 'analyzes' the tattoo, it does a lookup match online for the same shape, and then plays the associated audio clip. It doesn't need to be a huge ugly waveform, it would work just as well if it was a simple QR Code one inch square, instead of a hideous ink blob halfway up your arm. The tattoo only works when you have internet access, and if buddies server goes down because he's letting people have access to DCMA licensed content, your tattoo will no longer work at all. How do you do a cover up on one of these ink wave forms?

These Driverless Snowploughs Are Clearing Runways In Norway.  Guess what robots can't do? Write clever comments like this one that is below this roboplow video on YouTube: So Random question, how come people keep their salaries a secret to their co-workers? Like let's say someone recently hired asks his supervisor how much he makes only to be told that's classified information because you can't talk about salaries. At many jobs that I had my salary was supposedly 'Top Secret', but all usually it took was is a few beers after work on Friday with my coworkers, and I knew everybody's salary. I think there should be a Blockchain of Wages and Salaries or BWS, that is only accessible by a 'member of the Blockchain' - an employee of the company - that way everything is public within the company, but still secure, because every access of the BWS information would be permanently recorded, as part of the BWS.

The Future of Wind Power? - Kite Power Systems. Imagine living on a remote island, on top of a Ski hill, or in a remote Native territory, and you get an 8 foot storage container with everything you need to set up a very cheap Kite Power System, and even start mining Bitcoins, and other Cryptocurrency coins. The system would soon pay for itself, and you would now have free power and satellite internet. Kite Power Systems is an ingenious design with two huge kites on long steel cable tethers, and are controlled by an electronic guidance system that maintains the optimal flying angle for each kite, with both kites flying in a figure 8 system. As one kite flies upwards at high speed, the energy from that climb is used to reel in the second kite which is now flying downwards, with each kite alternating upwards and downwards flight.

Place a Clothespin on Your Ear For 5 Seconds The Unexpected Effect Will... The Unexpected Effect is Extreme Ear Pain, lol. Dig this - all you have to do to become a New Age Health Guru is search the Dollar stores for tiny, brightly colored wooden clothes pegs. Then come up with a cool name for your new business like EarBliss or PainPal or The 2 Minute Makeover. I hope you don't choose PainPal because you might attract the wrong clientele, lol.Then make up a colorful logo, rent an old house downtown, put out your sign and get your business cards printed. After about 6 months, when your clients ears start to get bruised, discolored, dis-formed (remember cauliflower ears that boxers used to get?), and your clients now have to see treatment for their constant ear pain, it's time to switch to something safer, like Pet Psychic or Dream Art Therapy. How about Golf Caddy to Virtual Golfers, you just stand there with a bag of clubs, you never have to walk anywhere, lol.

What Is Reality? The Future creates the Past, which then Creates the Future. At 2:36 my mind melted completely. First the radical concept of a 3 Dimensional Crystal being projected onto a 2 Dimensional flat plane is presented, with the product being a 2 Dimensional QuasiCrystal, that has a direct and connected relationship to the 3 Dimensional Crystal. Next the concept is expanded to an 8 Dimensional Crystal that is projected at a very specific angle to create a 4 Dimensional QuasiCrystal. Then from the 4 Dimensional QuasiCrystal they derive a 3 Dimensional QuasiCrystal - Cha Wing - the building block of our universe. The coolest part is that it completely explains unexplained effects like The Placebo Effect, Photon Entanglement at great distances, how Twins know when the other twin is in trouble or dies, and it could even explain reincarnation, Near Death Experiences, psychic coincidences, Miracle Healing, and Remote Viewing.

What a Space Cadet. Listen to Donald Trump specifically call for a new branch of the US Military - The Space Force, which will conduct battles in Outer Space. With who - the Aliens from the movie Starship Troopers? Here's what Trump says at 1:07 "Space is a war fighting domain, just like the land, air, and sea. We may even have a Space Force, develop another one. Space Force. We have the Air Force. We'll have the Space Force. We have the Army, the Navy."
