Hacked STOP Signs (Photos)
While it may be illegal to deface traffic signals for a variety of reasons (violent car crashes), these stop signs feature a clever line or cliché that includes the word stop. They may not be the world's coolest bus stops, but they might make you think twice before rolling through an intersection. It's hard to stop at every stop sign you see, especially if the sign's behind a bush or tall people crossing the street. Officials in Oak Lawn, IL tried to change things by modifying the city's stop signs to be a little more eye-catching. Submitted by Mark S: See more from our friends around the web...

This Awesome Urn Will Turn You into a Tree After You Die | Design for Good You don't find many designers working in the funeral business thinking about more creative ways for you to leave this world (and maybe they should be). However, the product designer Gerard Moline has combined the romantic notion of life after death with an eco solution to the dirty business of the actual, you know, transition. His Bios Urn is a biodegradable urn made from coconut shell, compacted peat and cellulose and inside it contains the seed of a tree. Once your remains have been placed into the urn, it can be planted and then the seed germinates and begins to grow. You even have the choice to pick the type of plant you would like to become, depending on what kind of planting space you prefer. I, personally, would much rather leave behind a tree than a tombstone.

The Most Badass Alphabet Ever | Sometimes I find things on the internet that leave me speechless with their awesomeness. And considering it’s my job to find crazy stuff all day long, that’s actually saying something. But today I am bowing down to “The A-Z of Awesomeness,” a series of illustrations by Neill Cameron, where he takes each letter of the alphabet, crafts an absurd sentence around it, then brings it to life with an excellent drawing as you can see above. There are 25 more epic letters to go, and you must check them all out below:

Caught Fail Videos, Funny Clips, & Sexy Pictures Portraits of Strangers | Shooting Strangers in Orchard Road When I’m out on the streets, I often encounter faces that make me look twice; faces that stand out in the crowd without trying; faces that are out of the ordinary. They range from the exquisitely beautiful to the strangely wonderful. I started to approach these strangers for permission to take a photo of them. Read more about the project here. To view all the other photos, please visit my facebook set here or my flickr set here. I saw her sitting on the stairs outside of a mall, talking with her friend. A year and a half later, I got to connect with her through Facebook. I saw her from afar, walking briskly, standing out of the crowd with her short blonde hair and tall stature. She was walking with her boyfriend. He was sitting outside the mall, wearing dark sunglasses. It was one of those days where I was walking around for about 3 hours and couldn’t find a good face to photograph. I got only one portrait that day… but it was worth it. I saw her walking alone in Orchard.

Terry Border Makes Everyday Objects Come Alive (18 pics) Mail-Order Bride Artist Terry Border is one of those people who has a secret gift. He can take boring, everyday objects and make them come alive! In fact, his art can be appreciated for the clever thought behind it. What I love most about his work, though, is that it can be enjoyed by everyone. Young or old, we can all get a good chuckle out of his hilarious, bent objects. Today, I asked Terry where he gets his ideas. "Basically, I get ideas for photographs when everyday objects remind me of something else. "Then again, sometimes an idea just pops into my head.

Mistaken Identity In 1903, a prisoner named Will West arrived at Leavenworth. The record clerk took the photographs above and, thinking he remembered West, asked whether he had been there before. West said no. The clerk took some measurements, went to the file, and produced this record, bearing the name William West: Amazed, the prisoner said, “That’s my picture, but I don’t know where you got it, for I know I have never been here before.” Incredibly, this was true. The case became a strong argument in favor of the new science of fingerprinting.

Deer loses head-butt with Wisconsin lawn ornament By Bob Lamb La Crosse Tribune Posted: 11/10/2009 12:01:00 AM CST | Updated: 4 years ago This 640-pound concrete elk statue lies on its side in the backyard of Mark and Carol Brye s home in rural Viroqua. The dead buck lies about 20 feet away. A love-struck buck ran out of luck a week ago. The seven-point buck was killed when it rammed a 640-pound concrete statue of an elk in the backyard of Mark and Carol Brye's home in rural Viroqua, Wis. Bucks often fight during the breeding season, commonly called the rut. Mark Brye, who owns Brye Plumbing in Viroqua, was still laughing about the suicidal buck he found near his elk statue last week. Brye said his morning ritual is to rise early and look out at the life-like statue about 40 yards from his home. "Our son and daughter gave it to us for Christmas four years ago because we like to hunt elk," Brye said. Brye said he knew exactly what happened when he saw the statue tipped over. He didn't realize the buck lay dead a short distance away.
