Lil Wayne feat. Young Money - Every Girl [Video]
The act of an established MC providing a platform for his artists after he achieves a level of success has become an expected tradition in Hip Hop. After conquering the mix tape game, the billboard charts, the Grammys and silencing a dwindling group of naysayers, Lil Wayne now directs the spotlight squarely on the members of his record label, Young Money. On the hyper infectious introductory track “Every Girl” Lil Wayne provides some mic time for MCs Drake, Jae Millz, Gudda and Mack Maine. Never the one for subtlety, Lil Wayne and crew express their love for the fairer sex in the only way they know how, with auto tune and explicitness.

Mini Hydro Turbine Concept
Whether the laws of physics would allow something like this to happen, I do not know, but Jin Woo Han's faucet dynamo concept for powering small electric devices with water power is a neat idea.
Even if it took a few weeks to accumulate enough of a charge from your daily faucet use to do anything useful with, for the right application (like slowly recharging a battery), this is cool. [Coroflot via Gadget Lab]

Creative Milk Packaging
Given milk's association with boring packaging, this creative design, consisting of letters, is a nice and refreshing change. However, we'd like to see a side view to see just how efficient the design really is -- mainly the width.

Blackbird, Fly by Powershovel
The Blackbird,Fly is a 35mm twin reflex camera by PowerShovel/Superheadz of Japan. Powershovel designs toy cameras, these are not reproduced from some old Soviet plans or found in a warehouse somewhere. You can pickup one of these toy cameras in various specialty shops around the US or by mailorder. It takes pretty cool pictures, a BBF Flickr Group has a lot of examples of the results. I love that it uses regular old 35mm film and the exposure frame overlaps the sprockets.

Sauna & Steam Shower by LineAqua
"Belize" from LineAqua is a wonderful solution for any bathroom to provide day to day hygiene needs while promoting self wellness. This design is a combination Finnish dry sauna and steam shower all in one tidy cabin. The name "Finnish sauna" refers to a small cabin designed for sweating where toxins are released from the body through perspiration. This model is great since it combines the "wet" with the "dry". There are times where I personally want water therapy and other times a dry therapy. Some features in Belize include: chromatherapy lighting, 4 body sprays, sauna stove, rain shower, and FM Radio. The dry sauna cabin is separated from the shower by a sliding door. There is a folding seat in the shower where you can sit and enjoy a shower or the direct massage jets. Measurements: 71" x 48" x 87". Price: $5,000.

Arch Daily Snefjord Road stop / Pushak
The site of the road stop is a paradox. Oftentimes, the hardest winds blow off the sea, and yet the most attractive view is toward the fjord. The obvious response in order to shield tourists from the wind would be to construct a view-blocking wall. Instead three “bench-boxes” prefabricated at a local wharf dot the area, and their differing orientations allow visitors to choose where to sit according to wind and sun conditions.
