Photographer Al Fenn was commissioned to prepare a photo essay for LIFE magazine about life with an American (tree) leopard, a smaller version of the South American tabby cat, domesticated in the 1960s (1961) by a couple from Manhattan (New York), Si and Meg Merrill . Back then, exotic animals such as leopards, chimpanzees and even kangaroos were allowed and very popular as pets.

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?
They say that a shoe cannot be worn without a fly. We are slowly realizing that this is no longer true. Just look at the mini device that goes by the name of Dorothy. This one will get you out of an awkward situation when you tap your heels, much like Dorothy's red shoes from The Wizard of Oz. Of course, it can do much more.
The virtue of inventions is supposed to be their practicality, but not all of them know how to "fit into society", even though their utility should not be denied. The masters of strange inventions are certainly the Japanese, but funny and strange inventions are not geographically limited, because by finding new ones we want to make life easier for everyone and answer the challenges of the times. That's why we got a phone, a car, a remote control, etc., and some glitches are a byproduct of that. Check!
Leeo is the extended arm of smoke detectors that often prove ineffective. After all, what good does the detector do if we can't hear it because we're somewhere else? Leeo therefore informs you about the presence of smoke via the mobile application. If most detectors fail so badly when it comes to effective notification, Leeo makes them better and makes sure that your apartment does not burn to the ground, even if you are not home to notice it yourself.
Winter has already made it clear in the higher elevations that it won't be long before it conquers the lowlands as well and wipes the dust from our radiators, fireplaces and stoves. With the cold air outside, the heating also brings dry air behind the four walls. This is where the Dyson humidifier and air purifier comes in, which not only prevents the appearance of dry air, but also ensures that the apartment is free of bacteria with UV light.
Did you know that 30% is recognized by more people as the McDonald's sign than the cross, and, like God, is almost everywhere, except physically rather than metaphysically. More precisely, this American chain has 31,000 restaurants in 119 countries around the world, serving 58 million customers daily. Their architects, brothers, Dick and Mac McDonald, founded it in 1940, and since then it has left its mark not only on our structures, but also on the architectural landscape.
Of course, the primary purpose of a motorcycle helmet is to protect the head, and any savvy motorcyclist knows that this is the most important piece of equipment. It is therefore a reflection of his maturity, but it can also be a reflection of his personality, because, like all other pieces of clothing, it is "vulnerable" to style or fashion commandments. In addition to protection, it is also a trademark.
The Internet is an integral part of our daily tasks, indeed of life in general. It is an inexhaustible source of data, information, misinformation, weirdness, ideas, etc. It allows us to know everything about everything. In all of this, however, we often know too little about the source that provides us with all of this, i.e. the World Wide Web. Although you probably know that it is a difficult task to separate opinions from facts on the Internet, we assure you that we have already made a false choice.
Facebook's design team presented the Rooms application, a virtual refuge for everyone who likes to advertise incognito, that is, under a pseudonym. This social network requires a real identity to open a profile, but for many people, the web is the only place that gives them freedom of expression through anonymity. And since everything happens on Facebook, these virtual rooms for chatting about any topic allow them to be where everyone is.
Even though the leaves fall in autumn and life becomes monochromatic, this does not mean that the humor disappears with it and that the world becomes black and white. "Little Budo" is one of the best Balkan black comedies of the last decade, which is coming to our big screens on October 28, 2014.
This is one of those stories that we can all relate to. Toilet paper roll and its replacement. We know how unpleasant it is to come across a clearing when the bulk of the work is already behind us. When we're at home, it's easier to solve than in a bar, even though we're not exactly proud of yelling for help from behind the toilet. And since the rule "whoever uses paper, replaces the roll" usually does not work, the RollScout is a smart holder here.
Ugh, that was a hair. Namely, only one year separates us from the time when the movie "Back to the Future 2" (1989) took place, when we saw Michael J. Fox on a hovering skateboard. Science fiction has already inspired many inventors, including the creators of the Hendo hoverboard, which, like the movie, instantly became a big hit. Not on the movie screens, but on Kicksarter.
