The OnBike is as stealth as can be. Hidden cables, hidden chain and a finish as dark as night. The design even utilizes an off-center fork, a maintenance-free gear box and disc brakes to show off its unique composition. This bike is a smoke screen or oil slick spray away from being the official ride of Bruce Wayne himself.

These fuji apples were manipulated in the late stages of growth to appear to be “Apple” apples. By applying a sticker to the skin of the fruit about a month before they are harvested, this batch of apples are made into the cheapest Apple product you can buy these days.
And no, I didn’t see a line of people waiting to get their hands on one of these.

Here is a unique way to serve tea (not that I am a fan). The pivoting kettle aligns with the tea cup below and makes a perfect pour every time. Very classy.

In with the new…
Out with the old.
FedEx will be replacing a limited number of delivery vans in its fleet in Los Angeles this summer. They have reported that they will be introducing a few electric vehicles in order to save energy costs and fuel consumption of their land deliveries.
The new trucks look sleek and are probably a little quieter, and the price tag is a little heftier. I like it, and I hope it works out so that a larger number of these new vehicles can be introduced outside of the Los Angeles area.

For those of you who don’t know what an LP sounds like, check this out. This cleverly designed vinyl record was packaged in its own record player. Pop out the record, unfold it, place the pin on the record and spin it to hear it. Ahh, so simple, so unique.

If tossing, stashing and piling up used hardware has become a bad habit for you, take a look at this organizer. Cut-out shapes of common parts on the top of the box and a pull-out drawer underneath for each part to drop into.
Crafted by hand, this box can be stylized for many things that you never feel inclined to sort and store, like toys, tools, jewelry or batteries.
