Airplanes could have stained glass windows

By Hicbd

"The portable 'stained glass airplane window' can be rolled out and stuck on an aircraft window to transform the cabin into a dazzling place of prayer. They have been created by San Francisco-based designer Danielle Baskin, who hopes they will make travel experiences more 'hopeful and whimsical'."

Bars / pubs could clean the beer lines

By Hicbd

"If you’re a pub owner in Ireland, you are affiliated with Guinness. One of the terms of that relationship is that every three weeks you’ll receive a visit from a Guinness representative who will flush the lines to your Guinness taps. Pub owners are supposed to do that on their own, but some are lazy about it and Guinness doesn’t want to take any chances. If the lines aren’t flushed, the brew will be compromised."

Men could hold hands

By Hicbd

"In India, it is quite common to see men holding hands while walking down the street or sitting together on a park bench. It’s a traditional way of expressing non-sexual affection, friendship, and camaraderie. For those unfamiliar with this cultural norm, it might seem strange or even make them feel uncomfortable. However, for Indian men, holding hands is a gesture of non-sexual affection that signifies a deep bond between two people."

The breastfeeding "Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative" could be harmful to new mothers / babies

By Hicbd

"However, a small but vocal group of pediatricians and nurses, led by the nonprofit Fed Is Best, has begun to criticize some of the strategies that Baby-Friendly hospitals use, arguing that not only do they unduly pressure mothers to breastfeed, but that the designation also may not improve breastfeeding rates in the first year of life as intended...On the Fed Is Best website, parents and health care providers tell stories of babies who were dropped or nearly suffocated by exhausted moms trying to breastfeed."

Purses / bags / clothing / jackets could be made out of sails

By Hicbd

"Sea Bags are born as sails and transformed into nautically inspired totes and accessories that bring our customers great happiness. You see, we believe that sails soak up sun, salt, smiles and adventure. Of course we clean our sails before we make them into bags, our materials retain the essence of what they once were, where they've been and what they've done. It's this previous life that makes each bag unique."

E-commerce returns could not end up as garbage

By Hicbd

"'From all those returns, there’s now nearly 6 billion pounds of landfill waste generated a year and 16 million metric tons of carbon dioxide emissions as well,” said Tobin Moore, CEO of returns solution provider Optoro. “That’s the equivalent of the waste produced by 3.3 million Americans in a year.' Moore says online purchases are at least three times more likely to be returned than items bought in a store."

Toddler formula could be unhealthy

By Hicbd

"Given the lack of regulation, it's not surprising that there is wide variation in the composition of toddler formulas. But what is particularly worrisome, says the AAP, is that some of these products are actually unhealthy. They may have too little or too much protein, or have added sweeteners. These added sweeteners can build a child's "sweet tooth" and set them on the path to obesity. Additionally, toddler formulas are more expensive than cow's milk, creating a financial burden for families — one that is definitely not worth it."

A polo could be made with a dress collar

By Hicbd

"Collars & Co. and the Dress Collar Polo™ was created because we hated wearing dress shirts under our sweaters and jackets everyday to work in NYC. It was always uncomfortable, hot, a pain to get on and then after wearing them, we would have to have our expensive dress shirts dry cleaned...We set out on a one year journey to find a factory, the perfect fabric and a designer that could create the perfect buttery soft polo with a standard English spread collar."

Nerve injuries / paralysis could be reduced during childbirth

By Hicbd

"Studies estimate around 40,000 new moms experience some form of nerve injury due to childbirth each year. A Facebook community of survivors has two and a half thousand members, and offers a supportive forum for victims who have suffered injuries ranging from temporary pain to permanent paralysis...She is also working with the Texas hospital to introduce new guidelines that instructs nurses and other medical professionals to move laboring women's bodies every 30 minutes. Now, experts say nerve damage related to lower body positioning should be granted more attention."
