Bet you never know about this creature, a GeoDuck?

They are definitely not “ducks”, nor do they have any relation to “geo”-logy. In fact, they seem alien enough to be “from Mars” and, for all I know, possess a malign intelligence.

Modern biologists easily classify it as large saltwater clam, a bivalve mollusk with a huge “neck”, or a “siphon”. How huge, you’ll ask? Up to two meters in length.

Green sex toy could 'help save planet (Strange, news, wierd, product, news, report, event) Auckland, New Zealand

Environmentally conscious women are getting a buzz out of a new hand-cranked vibrator that makers say could help save the planet.

The eco-sex toy - dubbed the Earth Angel - uses a small wind-up handle to power up rechargeable batteries inside the casing.

It had originally been planned as a sex aid for the Third World where batteries and electricity supplies are unreliable.

But Irish manufacturers Camden Enterprises have been swamped with interest from Green followers after displaying the vibrator at an electronics fair in Linz, Austria, this week.

"We wanted to produce an environmentally friendly sex toy that appealed to all consumers regardless of gender, age or ethnicity.

"It has been in its development stage for the past two years and we are excited that our vision has become reality," said a spokesman.
