Oculus Yacht

Oculus is the first “design launch” of Schöpfer Yachts LLC. This 250-foot vessel was designed by E. Kevin Schöpfer, founder and owner of his namesake company.

Designed to accommodate 12 guests in extraordinary comfort and style, Oculus is a long distance cruising yacht capable of speeds upwards of 25 knots.

The exterior styling is representative of the jaw and eye socket bone structure of large oceanic fish and mammals. Featuring a dramatic reverse bow configuration, the yacht’s armature balances an elegant expression of symmetry and structure.

rocket ride for $95K

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — A Danish adventurer is first in line to ride aboard a privately funded, two-seat rocket ship designed by a California rocket maker to fly about 37 miles above Earth.

Xcor Aerospace said today that Per Wimmer, an investment banker based in London, will be the first passenger aboard Lynx, a space tourism vehicle designed to take off and land like an airplane. He’s also an investor in the Mojave, Calif.-based company.

Wimmer hopes his flight will come in 2011, after a series of test flights. Officials said tickets are selling for $95,000 each and reservations have been made for 20 flights.

Xcor’s main competitor is building SpaceShipTwo, an eight-seat craft that will take passengers some 62 miles above Earth for $200,000 each.

Kanye raps (reads: “talks”) about clothes, cars, music, and other things related to Kanye.

You can’t stop listening, and you won’t. It’s like 40 minutes long and the man is a complete ego-maniac. Every bit of success that anyone has is built on ego-mania, by the way, so if you’re hating then you’ve written your own check. Bitch.

Solar powered submarines

First civilian solar powered submarine in development. Submarines, by the way, are apparently taking the place of yachts for many a billionaire. Developed by Swiss company BKW and launched on the Goldfish Project heading.

Honda FC sport. You can’t get it, so don’t even try. Hydrogen powered and purely concept, Honda released the design at some pointless auto show the other day.

Designed by Rory Craig of the Art Center College of Design for racing enthusiasts…

Edit: Some people have written asking about this. It’s just a carbon fiber baby seat. Nothing more, nothing less. It looks cool, I suppose, like a race car seat. Stop whining.   – Ed.
