growing plants out of comic books?

An artist named Koshi Kawachi has created a technique called "Manga Farming". Basically, he grew radishes in between the pages of manga comic books. So if all you have are some seeds, water, and books, you should live.

Star Wars Lightsaber Nightlight

I'm afraid of the dark. And the dark side. So I'll be equipping my room with this lightsaber nightlight. It comes with a remote control that can change the blade to 7 different colours! I think I've been playing waaay too much Knights of the Old Republic...

Sometimes, when volcanoes decide to be even scarier, they produce LIGHTNING. Supposedly, this unexplained phenomenon may have something to do with electrically charged bubbles of magma and ash that rub up against each other. Sounds kinky.



Can you see it? This is a picture of the Sakurajima volcano in Japan erupting with lightning. Check out this video of more lightning in a volcano before you yell "FAKE!"
