She prefers to be called Horny Granny rather than Goat Granny.

101 year old Zhang Ruifang is quite the celebrity in her Chinese village of Linlou, due to the 6 centimeter black horn growing from her forehead. It began sprouting out last year and now she fears another one is growing on the other side. They appear to be cutaneous horns, which are made up of compacted keratin, but it's highly unusual (and pretty gross) to see them grow this large.

Her six children are worried that she's becoming a goat, while bloggers believe she has been possessed by the devil himself. She refuses to visit a doctor to get them removed because she's probably enjoying her new found fame. Perhaps she should get flashy and decorate the horns with ornaments, or she could be more practical use and just hang her keys.

While Japan's advancements in technology are practically unparalleled, the toys and gadgets they come up with are quite questionable.

First, we have the wasabi spraying smoke detector. Its creators wanted a solution to the problem of the hearing impaired not being able to hear smoke alarms while sleeping. Some genius cried out, "Let's soak them in a spicy spray of wasabi sauce!" Well, it doesn't actually spray the sauce; it simply emits a synthetic wasabi odor which wafts you awake.

 

Next, some Japanese Stress Balls. While they're not a new invention, you may not have seen ones like these before.

It was just another afternoon of bluffing, blinds and antes when six masked bandits stormed into the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Berlin during the European Poker Tour Saturday. 

Some reports say the robbers got away with 100,000 to 200,000 Euros when they raided the registration desk near the entrance of the hotel. Witnesses say they saw guns and machetes, but the thugs yelled that they also had grenades and bombs. 

It was Day 4 of the event and cameras caught some of the panic inside the poker room as well as the chaos outside in the lobby. Watch how a security guard manages to take down one of the crooks, but releases him when he's charged by another outlaw wielding a metal pole.

No gas tank? No tail pipe? No way!

Move over hybrids... the Nissan Leaf is a 100% battery powered electric car!

The Leaf can drive 100 miles per charge, and since 80% of U.S. drivers commute less than 62 miles each day, this car claims to be the perfect everyday vehicle. Convenient home charging units need only 4 to 8 hours to get the Leaf back on the road again. For longer trips, there will be quick charge stations, like gas stations, that will offer boosts to the battery in only 26 minutes. Nissan reports it will accelerate like a typical V6 car and reach speeds up to 90mph.

Prices have yet to be released but some test models may be seen on the roads this year, while they should be ready for mass production in 2012.
