Batteries become next WMD
As from tomorrow there is no point trying to get on a plane when in possession of lithium battery in a plastic casing.

If the batteries are new as if they are in the original packaging then they can be taken, but other than that, no lithium batteries will be allowed on a plane.

This hack will give you light from soda cans or rather energy drinks.

Materials needed:
1) 60 Watt light bulb (other wattages can be used)
2) Power cord (can be scavenged from anything)
3) Encasing (in this case, a “Jolt Energy Drink”)
4) Wire Strippers
5)Electric Tape (if you want to go the fast and easy route, a socket from a lamp and got it to fit with some slight grinding)
6) Soldering Iron
7) Solder

This makes a pretty basic lamp, but it is still a lamp.

Fancy being a farmer
Being stuck in an office is definitely an incentive for someone to want to live in the country and have a small holding.

These cows are interactive too, so you could get yourself a whole herd of these guys on your desk and drive everyone mad.

Urban chaos cars
It’s sometimes a good idea to get the kids what life is really like in the real world, this can be done explaining things in detail, showing them history in the making and buying those cars that look like that have just been in the one of the worst riots.

Whether this is a good idea or not, it will show what life is like for those less fortunate, but will these cars serve and lesson? It is doubtful if it would do so, but it is worth a try isn’t it?

Jet powered school bus
Now there are no excuses for the kids to be late for school any more.

This is a jet powered school bus which will burn up the road and reach take off speed, or rather you would have thought so but there is no data available on the performance, or in fact if there is any room left for seats anyway!
