Road to Death - Crazy Routes
2008-02-17 13:07:00 Crazy Routes in Andes, Albania & New ZealandNecessity may dictate that you choose the "road less traveled", but for goodness sake, leave weaker-nerved passengers behind. They might experience life-changing (and underwear-changing) circumstances that they will never forget, or forgive. One of the Chinese military roads to "boost the morale of their troops"And here is how they navigate it:Tirana to Elbasan Road in AlbaniaThis is a hairy route, very high, badly maintained with high volume of heavy truck traffic - count on these Albanian drivers to be dare-devils, too. Whatever pictures we could get, look pretty serious: The cool thing about this road is that it leads to various interesting "rabbit trails" with ancient ruins at the end:The Skippers Canyon Road near Queenstown:Katie Laurence writes to us:"This road is made from a very narrow cut in the middle of a sheer cliff face.

New sQuba Car Can Drive on Water, Underwater
2008-02-16 17:30:00 This has got to be one of the craziest cars that Rinspeed has ever created, because not only can the sQuba concept car compete on dry land, it can actually drive on water, as well as underwater. Yes, you read that correctly and this apparently is no joke.The drop-top roadster is made of lightweight materials and can effectively use its wheels as some sort of rudder system, propelling itself across the surface of the water not unlike, well, a boat. To take things even further, the car can dive up to 10 meters underwater for a true scuba experience. Naturally, the driver and passenger will need their own air supply devices.Better still, the Rinspeed sQuba concept is a zero-emissions vehicle thanks to its full dependence on electric motors. This also eliminates the petrol motor's reliance on air. Crazy.Source: Mobile Mag More About: Drive , Water , Underwater

How to survive the terrible teens
2008-01-18 04:38:00 Wendy Miller on a guide to handling the mother and father of all warsIt's not easy sharing a house with someone who thinks you're a total idiot. But if you're the parent of a teenager you'd better get used to it. So say the authors of Surviving The Terrible Teens , a new self-help (or self-preservation) book, based on interviews carried out with 170 different sets of parents. Laments from cowed couples who took part in the project include: "We are like dirt under our daughter's fingernails"; "We're seen by our son as being the ultimate embarrassment"; and "We're like a bad smell".Nothing new there. We all know that the average house-with-teens is a war zone and we have become hardened over the years to front-line dispatches chronicling atrocities on both sides. But this book breaks fresh ground in the way it attempts, United Nations-like, to find common ground between the combatants."We found there were lots of books on the market aimed at parents with babies and small childr...
