There are many wonders to this world that we leave in but the most intriguing has to be that of a woman’s handbag. My mom never knew what was in there half of the time and I dreaded her asking me to look for something in there.

Opening the zip activates the switch which powers the internal lining. Energy is stored in the internal battery which in turn is charged by an external solar cell. [via bbc news]
