Unfortunately, Grandpa won’t be able to take a hit off of this giant tank—it’s only for show. But as a unique lamp it certainly will strike up a conversation or two. Additional images are available after the break. Product Page (Prices available upon request)

I love how angry the girl looks about having her picture taken with the giant oxygen lamp.

I told you back in August, 2005, about "point and shoot" camera called the Firefly being developed by Israel -- you point a grenade launcher and shoot the "grenade cam" over enemy positions to get battlefield intel, which is beamed back wirelessly. Now, the UK military industrial complex is working on what sounds like an even better GRENADE CAM called the I-Ball. Like the Firefly, the I-Ball can be lobbed over a battlefield with a ...

This past weekend, Mark Beeson took some time in the service to address the historic presidential election that we just went through. Many people have responded with MUCH ENERGY over his comments. It is my guess that our church reflects our society as a whole in its' voting patterns. That is, probably half voted for Obama and half voted for McCain. I applaud Mark for his leadership through this very difficult subject. He could have ...

Совладелец ОАО "Вимм-Билль-Данн Продукты питания" Михаил Дубинин вложился в масштабный интернет-проект, посвященный рынку недвижимости. Сайт gdeetotdom.ru содержит внушительную базу фотографий домов в городах России и СНГ, на создание которой было потрачено более $1 млн. Ресурс рассчитывает привлечь риэлтеров, девелоперов и пользователей с нерешенным квартирным вопросом. Похожие ресурсы в рунете появлялись и прежде, но спросом они не пользовались.

This zany lamp created by Marieke Staps outdoes most lamps in more ways than one: the electricity is powered through the organisms contained in the mud. The mud is enclosed in cells that contain copper and zinc, which conducts the electricity in the LED. Besides doing wonders for your energy bill, Staps claims that the only thing the lamp needs is a "splash of water" every now and then. I wouldn't stand too close when ...

Ever since daylight saving time ended last weekend, I've been a little depressed. By the time work is through, there is nothing but bleak, cold darkness outside. It perpetually feels later than it really is, and the horrible reality is that it will only get worse. By December 21st many of us will be experiencing full-on seasonal depression. The good news is that there are plenty of gadgets out there designed to reverse these effects ...

Ok so some days I feel old… not because of the aches or pains, but because things which seem new to others, are sadly familiar to me. In a career which has spanned 30 years ( wow, that looks even worse in print then in my head) I have seen the economy rise and fall, and companies, and industries along with it. When the economy is strong lots of businesses survive with mediocre products or ...

You may be tempted to buy the Neon Scarface Rifle Lamp, and you may even notice that it has an affordable $67 price tag. But we don't recommend the purchase because somewhere, deep beneath the Earth's crust, there lives a little mole-like man who keeps a very large list, and people who buy things like this lamp, Elvis plaques and fart detectors go on that list. While no one knows the ramifications of having one's ...

The design of this desktop floodlamp mimics those found in large stadiums, making it ideal for sports fans. It may not be the most eco-friendly lamp with six burning bulbs, but on the plus side you probably won’t need to heat the room during the winter.

Essentially just an old iBook case stuffed with fluorescent lighting tubes, the simple mod recreates the glorious Pulp Fiction briefcase effect: Those who witness the full glowing beauty of the lamp must wonder if today is the day of Apple's Rapture. Patience, my friends. Our victory will come soon enough. And some of you with awesome lamp-making girlfriends need ...
