This is a cool hack if you happen to have $1000, an old RV, a pile of bowling balls and an industrial robot. If they just worked a bit on it's accuracy this thing would be a dodgeball nightmare.

This has to be one of the coolest learning exhibits I've ever seen. The Robot Zoo features 8 robot animals you can interact with including a chameleon that can change color and has an extendable tongue and a grasshopper with spring loaded legs. It sure beats a field trip to the saltine factory.

The furries finally have competition for the most pathetic group award. It seems between 150 and 200 real-life superheroes, or "Reals" as some call themselves, operate in the United States. 50 more around the world swell their ranks and dirty tights. They say most large cities have a "Real" but it is rare to find more than one or two operating in the same area. Proving once again, the law of geek diffusion.

How violent are public schools in South Africa? Violent enough that the Minister of Education has asked parents to make schools safer by searching their children for drugs and weapons before they leave home. Detention will be phased out soon and replaced with waterboarding.

In the U.S. we have life coaches to help you focus and change your ways. In South Korea you have a mock funeral. The funerals which cost $325 are part of a fad called, "well-dying". It has become so popular that many companies send employees to improve job performance. At least there aren't any trust games or team building exercises when your dead.

What's filled with 48 birds and takes 8 hours to cook? If you answered the little pet shop by my house, you're right but now there is something else. A creation of Devon farmer Anne Petch, dubbed "The True Love Roast", weighs four stone, feeds 125, costs £665, and takes 4 hours to bone and put together.
