Shoes That Make Everyone The Same Height
Berlin-based artist Hans Hemmert threw a party where guests wore shoe-extenders to make them all the same height of 2 meters (6 feet 7 inches).Aside from bringing the partygoers all to a common eye level (and eliminating the awkward postures of party talk between the tall and the short), the gathering is lent an infographic nature by the shoes: all made from blue foam, the person's real height is read in the visual uniformity of the sole instead of at the head—like a walking bar graph.

Rotel Tours Feature A Hotel On Wheels
This bus owned by a German tour company features a six-foot-long bed for each of its passengers. The company claims to operate some 3400 "Betten auf Rädern," or "beds on wheels." Want to see Africa lying down?
Answers to the obvious questions: Yes, there is a bathroom, but no, there are no showers. Each bunk is about three feet wide and three feet high; you enter it through a zippered curtain. And the cabin is patented, so no, you can't steal the idea.The company is called Rotel Tours (the word is a portmanteau of "rolling" and "hotel") and it has, unbelieveably, been hosting bus-bed tours of Europe, Asia, and Africa since 1959. It was founded in 1945 by a man named — we are not making this up — George Hötel. His firm's buses cater almost exclusively to German tourists; in the past fifty years, they have done everything from crossing the Sahara desert to traversing Mongolia and Vietnam.
Cool, but we can't stop thinking about the shower thing. According to the never-wrong Internet, the buses make "occasional stops" at RV parks and campgrounds for the "express purpose of bathing." Yummy. Smells like... German spirit?

Lady GaGa tells Q magazine
"The last thing a young woman needs is another picture of a sexy pop star writhing in sand, covered in grease, touching herself. My image was an issue at my record label. I fought for months and cried at meetings. I got criticized for being arrogant because if you're sure of yourself as a woman they say you're a bitch whereas if you're a man and you're strong-willed it's normal." Souce: Perez Hilton
