Fridge Locker Secures Your Snacks From Crappy Roommates and Co-Workers [Food]
Tired of your lunch being stolen by your roommates and co-workers? Instead of hiding your snacks, get serious about security with the fridge locker.
Essentially, it's a polyurethane cage full of goodies that you store in the fridge and secure with a combination lock (included). Of course, there's nothing preventing thieves from stealing the entire cage and working on it later with a hacksaw...

RC Bowling Ball
Yes, 900 Global’s Remote Control Bowling Ball is cheating, but it’s for a good cause: designed for disabled children, it uses an internal weight to adjust the movement of the ball.

re:Use Canopy Upcycled from Plastic Cups by BIOS Design Collective
One of the main principles of permaculture is that “the problem is the solution.” Problem: tons of waste cups created by attendees of the OutsideLands concert in San Francisco. Solution: a fabulous recycled cup canopy. BIOS Design Collective tapped a keg and invited their friends over for a canopy party, building a gorgeous wave of concave color at Stable Cafe just in time for Architecture and...
Wash your clothes by pedaling your bike (with video)
Credit: Dave Askins, homelessdave.com.
You don't need electricity to do the laundry. It's as easy as riding a bike. My wife's 90-year-old aunt still washes her laundry by hand, and dries it with a wringer. God bless her. But if you're a little busier, you can keep your clothes clean with pedal power. GreenovationTV has a segment on the low-tech solution....Read the full story on TreeHugger

Paying homage to the integrity of the working class, Ospop today added a new set of travel bags to their collection of durable goods, aptly called the Migration Series.

Coolest Bike Parking in San Francisco
Copenhagenize.com - The Copenhagen Bike Culture Blog
I've not seen such cool bike parking in ages. At my hotel in San Francisco - the W Hotel - they have three Danish Biomega bicycles for guests to use free. Okay, three isn't much, but it's what they do with them that counts.
It's like a museum the way they hang them up on the wall like that. You ask the valet for a bicycle and he walks over with a crank and proceeds to lower - slowly and...

Hmm, yes, quite clever, but I think it would be cleverer if it came with some sort of cap so that you won’t get pencil marks everywhere. Although, you could just use a bic pen cap or something similar.
Possibly the worlds cleverest pencil, handmade in east London. Each white pencil has a clip carved into it, so that it can be attached to pockets, satchels and book covers just like a biro. It...

Creative Commons 3D print of Thom Yorke's head
Someone on Thingyverse extracted a mesh of Thom Yorke's head from the Creative Commons version of Radiohead's video clip "house of cards". They then took the resulting point cloud and 'skinned' it with the Point Cloud Script for Blender. This script is a great tool to create a working mesh from a simple point cloud. They then made the mesh manifold and all that using Meshlab. The resulting...
