Wyclef Jean's Wife Provides Haiti With Housing

More than three months after the January 12th earthquake, over 1 million Haitians still live in tents. With the rainy season approaching, Yele Haiti has taken a big step towards supplying housing for the people of Haiti. Spearheaded by Wyclef Jean's wife, temporary homes are being built to provide tenants with a dry and warm place to live.

The units are made of wood and cement with metal roofs and last several years, or until permanent housing becomes available. The temporary homes can also house up to six people, as they are 12 feet by 12 feet in size. Women and children will be the first ones to live in the facilities.

“They’re getting wet from the hard rains. The temporary houses have been tested and keep out rain, even on days and nights when it rains nonstop," says Claudinette. "“What we take for granted is so important to everyone."

Steampunked Cycles

How do you get noticed as having the most extravagant hog on the highway? You find a way to get the Solifague Black Widow Chopper. Sure, nothing beats the classic black and chrome of a Harley, but this year you promised yourself you’d go a little more outside the box when it comes to your rides, so it’s time to put a little polished brass between your legs.

As with all steampunk contraptions, the Solifague Black Widow Chopper has a look captured by yesteryear, but don’t think this baby is just a steamboat on wheels. No sir, though the chassis may look like it’s from the industrial era, I assure you the inner workings are all space age.
