You can’t believe how many times I have complained that I didn’t have the right chair. Sitting long hours in front of the desk is not healthy, we all know that. We just complain and suffer, that’s pretty much all that we can do. And sometimes we get clever enough to think about buying a special chair or an exercise ball to sit on. But that’s where it stops, we run out of solutions, our evolution has brought us to this point were we will suffer forever by sitting at a desk for long hours while our bodies haven’t evolved fast enough for such modern ways. The life of the modern man is behind the desk. It all seemed like we would all suffer until StandDesk came along. The desk that evolved with our modern ways. It’s a normal desk except that it allows you to get off the chair and stand. Finally a smart solution to our evolution. Just press a button, stand up and work you modern man! It’s worth every penny and they need your support on KickStarter, or should I say, we need their support, our backs need their support. Let’s support them so that they can support our backs.

In mother Russia anything is possible and this motorcycle is a tribute to that. The front wheel is driven by a chain, as is the rear, as you can see when it’s disassembled. The tires are massive floatation devices that act like paddlewheels and the whole bike seems to weigh about as much as a bag of toddlers, based on the way the rider manhandles it around.
This reminds me so much of the Balloon Wheels Vehicle from Belarus.

A 22-year-old woman has had the whole top of her skull replaced with a customized 3D-printed implant. The patient had been suffering from severe symptoms as a result of a condition that causes a thickening of the skull. It is believed that the procedure was the first of its kind. 3D printing has already been used in the medical field to produce lower jaw implants, prostheses and cells.

Hugh Herr is building the next generation of bionic limbs, robotic prosthetics inspired by nature’s own designs. Herr lost both legs in a climbing accident 30 years ago; now, as the head of the MIT Media Lab’s Biomechatronics group, he shows his incredible technology in a talk that’s both technical and deeply personal — with the help of ballroom dancer Adrianne Haslet-Davis, who lost her left leg in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing, and performs again for the first time on the TED stage.

Almost all “live” pop performances now are lip-synced, and almost all recorded performances are auto-tuned. We almost never hear real singers’ voices now. That’s a well known fact and that is probably not going to get any better with the invent of better auto-tune technology. Check out the article “the formula behind every perfect pop song“.
