Want to play games on your Playstation but got a deadline for an exam or report that didn’t match your gaming ambitions?

Then you have come to the right place.

Send trashed files and blame your faulty computer, instead of confessing that you are a lazy bum who just wants to play videogames.

Wicked.

We’re not sure which way to run on this one; to hang our heads in shame at the desecration of one of the ultimate showcases of automobile artform, or to grab the keys and to experience the sprinting ability of this beast from zero to 60 mph in less than 6 seconds, and the rush of cruising the plains at the top speed of 170 mph… all with a pair of truely enourmous 9-foot gullwing doors allowing six extra boys in the back to join in on the fun. What do you think - monstronsity or monstrous amount of fun?

Scrap doesn’t equate to junk.

Back in 2005, the ScrapHouse, a structure composed entirely of recycled materials, was built as the centerpiece of World Environment Day. According to the official ScrapHouse website, the project presents the following challenges:

Challenge 1: Design
Rethinking a standard single-family home floor plan, the ScrapHouse Design Team generated an elegant design solution, inspired by the abundance of scrap material. Every material, from the foundation to the front door, was reclaimed and re-used.

Challenge 2: Search
Finding appropriate innovative materials was the next challenge. The team spent three weeks scouring the Bay Area for building materials, furnishings and finishes; purchasing new only hardware and fasteners. Some salvaged materials were re-used for their intended purpose, while others were reincarnated in unusual ways.

Challenge 3: Build
The ScrapHouse team’s final challenge was a two-week blitz build, kicking off the last week of May and concluding with the public opening of the house itself on June 2, 2005.
