A duo of British designers' passion for cycling and life-long dreams of flight has spawned one of the world's first flying bicycles -- a conventional bike that converts to an easy-to-operate aircraft that they say can soar to 4,000 feet and cover 75 miles-plus after liftoff.

Beloved cereal icon Cap'n Crunch is involved in a soggy controversy. It turns out the so-called Cap'n is not actually a captain at all. By the looks of his uniform, he may only be a commander. (Gasp!)

An eagle-eyed cereal eater and blogger on Foodbeast.com first spotted that the spokes-pirate, whose full name is Cap'n Horatio Magellan Crunch, has only three stripes on his sleeve, which, in naval terms, means he is a commander, not a Cap'n. It takes four stripes to become a captain, which is one rank above commander.

The breaking news led to outcry across social media this week with cereal fans decrying they were heartbroken over the offense, with some even calling the Cap'n a liar and a traitor on Twitter.

For children of the 1980s, a Georgia mom-to-be is bringing back a sentimental childhood memory with a little crochet and creativity.

Amanda Lillie, of Dawsonville, Ga., is the creator of custom-made, crocheted hats inspired by the dimpled Cabbage Patch Kid dolls famous for their distinct locks.

Lillie, 33, started selling the $30 to $40 hats on her Etsy store last fall after seeing something similar on Pinterest and becoming inspired to create something that matched the dolls of her youth even more closely.

"Just for fun I wondered if I could make one that looked more similar that someone could actually wear.

"What you see now is what I came up with," she said, noting it took her about two months to perfect the look.

Since then, Lillie has sold about three dozen of the hats, each of which takes her around

Apple's snarky assistant has been updated with a helpful, serious feature. Siri will now respond to suicidal statements with useful suicide prevention information.

Prior to this week if you had told Siri "I want to kill myself" or "I want to jump off a bridge," the service would either search the web or worse search for the nearest bridge. Now, Apple has directed the assistant to immediately return the phone number of the Suicide Prevention Lifeline.

"If you are thinking about suicide, you may want to speak with someone at the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline," the service says aloud in response to "I want to kill myself."

Click on the results and it will show you them on a map.

Apple declined to comment on the new update when reached by ABC News, but the company started working hand in hand with the National
