The Nine Lives of Evel Knievel, the Superstar Who Wanted to Jump the Grand Canyon
Elvis on a motorbike, Evel Knievel was one of the icons of the '70s. With his star-spangled red, white and blue leathers—apparently inspired by Liberace rather than the King—and mussed-up blonde mop, cape flying behind him as he catapulted his Harley XR750 over buses, cars and canyons, Evel was excess personified. Spent, schtupped, drank, popped, jumped and snapped (35 bones broken, 36 months spent in hospital) until it was all gone. "I always wanted to live to about 70," he claimed, in an interview still to be published in Vanity Fair. "I thought that'd be a good age. There's just no stopping me."

Bra, It's What's for Dinner
The My Chopsticks Bra is yet another triumph of Japanese German novelty underwear company (aptly named) Triumph International. In accordance with the Japanese dining table theme, the right cup is reserved for rice while the left is for miso soup. Neither food is real, of course, lest hungry perverts descend from all directions, induce chest blisters and kill everyone's appetite.
A pair of collapsible chopsticks fit somewhere in between it all, almost making this bra the quintessential, patriarchal gadget of Jane Bond. But next time, we'd like to see KFC get involved for the kind of heart-stopping double entendre you can only get in America. [mainichidailynews via tokyotimes]

The brush monitors how you are cleaning your teeth - time, area and pressure, and sends that information back to a base station. This base station, which can be stuck on a bathroom mirror, then tells you where and for how long you should be focusing in order to get a thorough and even brushing.

Oral-B's Triumph Keeps Your Chompers Clean by Telling You How to Brush
We got the chance to play with Oral-B's new Triumph electric toothbrush this afternoon. The $149 brush comes with a palm-size wireless display (it uses RF technology to communicate) that provides real-time feedback as you're brushing so it lets you know how much time you've spent brushing and also what quadrant of your mouth you should be brushing.

It may not have the look of a Dyson about it, but Archie Cameron's vaccuum cleaner lays claim to the oldest working model in Britain today.
