Volvo has always been synonymous with safety, and nothing is more important to the Swedish car brand than passenger safety. It signed many safety innovations and was among the first to adopt the three-point seat belt and rear-facing child seats. And speaking of children. You may not know, but Volvo also has its own line of child seats, but now it has taken the safety, and especially the comfort of the little ones, to a higher level. Only for them, in the luxury concept edition of the Child Seat Concept XC90, the passenger seat was abandoned and replaced by a child seat facing the back seat.

Sometimes I walk around the keyboard, sometimes in nature. One time I twist the heels, the other time the kitchen. I press the trigger once, the pedals a second time. And one time I play the role of a moviegoer, another time a nanny. Life offers such a wide range of things that it would be pointless to dip your brush in just a color or two, right?
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Pitt have serious problems in their marriage. Officially only on screen for now in the upcoming film By the Sea. Angelina Jolie Pitt has a motto: "If you want to do things right in Hollywood, do them yourself." Five years ago, when she was writing the script for her film In the Land of Blood and Honey (In the Land of Blood and Honey). , a love story amid the whirlwind of war in Bosnia, she toyed with the idea of handing the project over to another director. In the end, he decided that this would not be the case, as the story could be "lost in translation". This is her third film where she sat in the director's chair.

Swincar is the most unusual all-terrain vehicle in the world. The electric "quad", which resembles a spider, is not stopped by any terrain, because the independent suspension for each wheel separately and the body, which moves separately from the chassis, allow it to cope with terrains that until now seemed impassable.
The Aljaž Tower, a symbol of Slovenia, today on the top of Triglav, at 2,864 meters above sea level, has been offering shelter and a photographic motif to mountaineers for 120 years. Defender of Slovenia was founded by Jakob Aljaž and three assistants on August 7, 1895, after he bought 16 square meters of land on the roof of Slovenia for a goldsmith. Have you ever taken a picture with him?
The Bolt M-1 is still fundamentally "just" a bike. You can drive it. But the point is, you don't need one. It is an electric bike with a battery that can take you 80 kilometers on a charge, and it can "cruise" at a speed of up to 64 km/h. The high-tech bicycle with regenerative brakes is connected to a smartphone, where through a special application you can access all collected data such as speed, distance, etc., and you can also unlock it wirelessly.
What would Google look like if it had been invented in the 80s? This is the question that puzzled the Australian company Mass:werk, who made a working vintage version of Google based on the technology that was available at the time. Are you curious about what browsing Google would have looked like thirty years ago? Check it out for yourself.
Motorcycle concepts The BMW Urban Racer Concept is a mix of old and new. The 3D modeler from London Jans Slapins, who also has a modified Ford and Lamborghini in his portfolio, signed up for the study, and lastly he presented the aforementioned elegant two-wheeler with a white and blue propeller.
We all know that Apple's sheep take the things that this brand offers to customers for dry gold. Like the orthodox, they also cannot see beyond what Apple offers, so any argument with them that there are better products in the world is fruitless. As such, they are the target of pranksters, and finally they were indulged by Dutch "pranksters", who presented the long-awaited iOS9 operating system to passers-by on an iPhone, which was actually Android OS in disguise. And the reactions? They were thrilled!
How to commemorate the greatness of the man who was the first man to conquer all eight thousand people and the first to climb to the roof of the world without supplemental oxygen? With a book? Maybe a documentary? Reinhold Messner already has all this, but now a museum has been dedicated to this legendary Italian alpinist from South Tyrol in the Italian Alps. It was "curved" by Zaha Hadid, the famous British-Iranian architect, who placed it on top of the mountain.
This month marks five years since 33 Chilean miners collapsed in the San Jose copper and gold mine in Chile's Atacama Desert, and just one day after the fifth anniversary, the biographical film The 33 is coming to cinemas, revealing all the details of their survival. The drama, watched by the whole world on television, had a happy ending after 69 days of being trapped 700 meters underground, but much of the story has not been heard until now.
Happaratus are electric gloves that you can use to shape wood and stone by hand just like you would shape clay. It sounds like science fiction, and it is, except you don't have to become a superhero with special powers, you just need to put on the "augmented reality" gloves of Royal College of Art graduate Morten Grønning.
