Car manufacturers have always been scratching their heads with how to create the most economical and affordable car possible, and environmental controversies have only strengthened this. There are many ideas that go away from oil, but when we get to the lowest common denominator, that is, what is technically feasible, when the price is important, most concepts remain just that - a concept. That's why, instead of looking to the future, we looked to the past and the present and pulled out (also from mothballs) the most fuel-efficient cars we drive. Introducing

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?
Chinese smartphone manufacturer Huawei is an increasingly household name among mobile users. Although their latest smartphone, the Honor 6 Plus, is almost a mirror image of the iPhone 6, it makes up for what it lacks in design innovation with a number of goodies. It will fascinate photography lovers in particular, as it offers as many as two digital cameras.
Basketballs were traditionally made of leather, but today you will mostly find balls made of synthetic materials in stores. Well, Unofish Basketballs bring basketballs back to their roots, but only as far as real leather is concerned, as they include surfaces with patterns of alligator, ostrich, python, sea whip and other animals, giving each ball a completely unique feel.
Facebook in 2015 - It has become a social network that has no equal, and a lot of credit for this is due to its constant exploration of new terrain and the fact that it does not rest on its laurels. In recent years, he has outgrown even himself, and we can only wonder where the path will take him in 2015.
Best City Bikes of 2014 - There have been a lot of good bikes, but only a few can be the best city bikes of 2014. Cycling trends change very quickly and with demand growing, it seems like a new niche bike brand is around the corner every week. And if a few years ago, well-known brands dominated the market and dictated trends, 2014 is proof that the baton of innovation was taken over by smaller and (yet) unknown ones. In 2014, we devoted quite a few lines to such people at City Magazine.
True Story is, after all, a true story based on the memoirs of New York Times journalist Michael Finkel, who is portrayed by Jonah Hill in the film. It is a psychological drama that focuses on his relationship with Christian Long, the most wanted criminal on the FBI's list, who evaded arrest for many years outside the United States, passing himself off as Michael Finkle.
One of the recognizable signs of December are also Christmas-colored sweaters, which otherwise rest in the closet for a good eleven months. In happy December, sweaters of bright colors, full of patches, Christmas figures, etc. come alive. And although these are mostly fashion failures, this kind of knitwear has gained a cult status over the years. The more goofy, funny, or even ugly, the better.
Although many people think that Mars is our next stop, since it is in many ways the mirror image of Earth, NASA has been toying with the idea of life on Venus, which is also called Earth's evil twin, for some time. They developed the concept of a floating city that would grow in its atmosphere and enable permanent settlement. The project is called HAVOC.
Four-wheelers are a fixture at Lamborghini today, but when the LM002 dude SUV debuted in 1986, it was their first foray into the world of four-wheelers. Because it was a real beast (V12 engine), the title "Rambo Lambo" quickly caught on, and that was even before Sylvester Stallone came up with it. By the end of production in 1993, only a little over three hundred were built, so it is a real collector's item and one of them is going up for auction in January 2015.
Language is often an insurmountable barrier, but the popular service for free online conversations, which also offers cheaper calls to mobile and landline networks, Skype is trying to put an end to this. On computers with the Windows 8.1 operating system, she experimentally installed a universal translator (the Skype Translator application), which interprets the conversation between the two interlocutors in real time.
Exo is an excellent example of how humans turn to nature for ideas, to its models, processes and elements that help us solve human problems. The Exo iPhone case was inspired by the exoskeleton of an animal (hence the name) and discreetly protects the most sensitive and exposed parts of the phone, absorbing shocks that the case and screen would otherwise receive.
In September, Swedish programmer Markus "Notch" Persson became obscenely rich. His computer game Minecraft was bought by Microsoft for 1.93 billion. In December, however, he became the owner of a megavilla in Beverly Hills, California, which Beyoncé and Jay Z were able to view. Among the rappers, only Dr. could compete with the Swede. Dre, who, like Persson, made an outrageous fortune selling Beats by Dr Dre headphones.
