Just one glass
This strangle looking red wine glass was featured at the Korean Design Week 2009. The device consists of a bulb shaped container with the glass below. When the amount in the glass decreases, a constant amount is poured from the tank into the glass, never overflowing from the glass because of air pressure and water pressure.

O.Ont
For a spacecraft it's a little bit different, but that perfect once in a lifetime photo rarely comes for most people. Maybe you've had it but missed it because you left your camera at home, or maybe you were just too slow. I'm talking about the kind of photo that you can look at all day and never get bored of it. Maybe its the shot that will make you a small fortune one day.
The iconic photo of O.Ont as she runs naked down the road after being severely burned on her back after a napalm attack is a prime example. The Pulitzer Prize winning photograph taken in 1972 by Nick Ut, it shows the horrific civilian casualties suffered as a result of the Vietnam war, a scene rarely seen by the rest of the world.

Cassini
Some unbelievable photographs taken by the Cassini spacecraft of Saturn and its moons. Amazingly abstract shots which look more like the paintings of a geometric modern art fanatic than of the solar system.

Timothy Saccenti
Timothy Saccenti has new site up and running, designed by Build. He has an amazing portfolio with some surreal pieces and others which are just weird! The shots of women with bizarre alien head pieces on are possibly the strangest photographs I have ever seen! Yet for some reason I can't stop looking at them.

Mum, I want a pet mouse...
Ever thought what it would be like to live in a Rococo style world with a giant mouse?

Polanski
No more than a sexist depiction of women or a celebration of the female form?
The creators of Polanski describe it as "A project designed to provide a commentary on, celebrate and show up the shameless pillaging of the internet and disgraceful disregard of artists’ ownership in the world of blogging, taking the form of a minimalist library of fashion photography".
Whether you believe in this approach or not, the site received 75,000 page views within 2 weeks of its birth and within a month, Polanski rose to be inside the top 150 tumblogs.
So quite a few people obviously agree.
