Remember when Coca-Cola first rolled out Vanilla Coke? Get ready for a fruity remix. Later this month, Coca-Cola will be introducing a new spin on a classic flavor combo: Vanilla Orange Coke. The drink it set to hit store shelves Feb. 25 and will be available as regular Coke and Coke Zero Sugar.

Each of those little straight roads in the background replicate some section of local highway, like Pontiac Trail or the various "mile" roads.

Flexible wheels that bend but don't break. Michelin and Maxion Wheels have created this flexible wheel. To eliminate road-based damage to tires and rims. The Maxion flexible wheels are made with Michelin Acorus Tech. Designed with rubber so that they bend instead of break, they absorb impact from potholes and curbs. Maxion Wheels says this flexibility also improves ride comfort. The flexible wheel is designed to work with any brand of tire.

Michelin has been working on similar concepts for a long time. I have an old pic somewhere of an integrated tire/wheel that is flexible.
Makes more sense to have the tire and wheel separate so you don't have to pitch the whole thing when the tires tread is gone.

A Rare Bird Indeed: A Cardinal That’s Half Male, Half Female

Researchers believe that the cardinal is a rare bilateral gynandromorph, half male and half female. Not much is known about the unusual phenomenon, but this sexual split has been reported among birds, reptiles, butterflies and crustaceans.

Wonder what happens if the spoke part of the wheel hits a pothole? No bending there

Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa is proud to offer this unique 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1. This car not only has the famous first-generation Mach 1 351 Cleveland V8 engine, but it is literally bulletproof. I do not mean that as terminology, but this car’s cockpit is equipped with a clandestine NIJ level 3a ballistic protection package. If you want to be like John Wick and be able to look awesome but also feel protected, finally the car has arrived. This armor will protect against a .44 Magnum, Semi Hollow Point bullets and 9mm full metal jacket bullets with nominal masses of 15.55 g impacting at a velocity of 1,400 ft per second or less. It also provides against most handgun threats as well as level I, IIA, and II threats. The windows and glass are not rated to stop projectiles. The Ballistic package present in the vehicle is meant to be hidden so protection cannot be observed.

Titanosaurs were the giants of the giants—four-legged behemoths that stomped around Cretaceous South America and Africa 100 million years ago. The discovery of a previously unknown titanosaur in Tanzania with a unique heart-shaped tailbone is adding to our knowledge of these enigmatic beasts, and how they lived and evolved on the African continent.

Nature is certainly capable of creating some pretty amazing things, and one resident of Sparta, Michigan, just happened to be in the right place at the right time to see one of the winter's most beautiful formations.

Last week, Andrew Sietsema was pruning some of his apple trees after freezing rain had hit the area and while he was working, he snapped a few pictures of what he has since dubbed “ghost apples” — hollowed-out ice casings of apples that were never harvested.

All of you who questioned the bonafides of the wild all-electric eCOPO Camaro dragster can officially shut up. The car peeled off a 9.837-second pass last weekend. And yes, it happened in competition at a sanctioned event, thank you very much.
