Although the members of the Bogota Humana cycling team didn't do well in the race in Tuscany, they got a lot of media attention when their group photo in "naked" jerseys went around the world. Tricots that imitate the female genital organ have also raised eyebrows with the competent authorities at the International Cycling Union (UCI). Is sexism at work or is it just cheap advertising? Judge for yourself.

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?
Today is the start of the European Mobility Week, a week that snowballs, as every year it gathers new like-minded people who want to end the "auto-cratic" rule in urban environments and overthrow the "cult of the car". The auto-centricity of cities was sacred for many years, but heliocentrism also took its time. Cinema Dvor also wants to accelerate the leap in thinking, offering free activities on this topic on September 22.
The word "forever" likes to creep into the vocabulary when we build a strong friendship. And what, if not a thief, best seals this infinity (of friendship, love, belonging, etc.). People complement each other, even when it comes to tattoos.
Some things have become so embedded in our everyday life that it is hard to imagine life without them. A microwave is not indispensable, but a modern kitchen without it is like wearing pants without underwear. Something is missing. But at the same time, it's one of those devices that doesn't 'give much of itself'. Only to yourself. That's why Jake Rich introduced the Mediumwave microwave, which has only 'blood' in common with other microwaves.
A couch or sofa is one of those "territories" for which there is always a battle due to its strategic position, which no one can really appropriate and which is difficult to defend. This is especially difficult in large families. With the appearance of screens, which are an alternative to television, the fight has somewhat calmed down, but nothing will ever calm the situation more than the kilometer-long sofa that was recently erected on the Russian coast.
Ikea has already crossed the threshold of almost every household and does not need a special introduction, but because it is "at home" also in innovation, it always lends its finger to something new. This time, at the opening of the store in Clermont-Ferrand, France, she set up a vertical apartment, which is actually a climbing wall and which combines climbing holds with her own furniture.
Samsung may not have been 100 years ahead of its time like Nikola Tesla, but three years in digital years is practically the equivalent. When Samsung launched its "flashy" Galaxy Note phone in 2011, it was the target of ridicule from Apple because of its large "pumpkin". Now that the latter has done the unheard of and trampled on Steven Jobs' vision, offering a (too big) 5.5-inch screen, Samsung has decided to strike back. In a sarcastic way.
"No" is a pretty scary word (after all, the Japanese don't even have it in their dictionary!) because it has as many potential side effects as some antidepressants. No wonder we avoid it like the devil of the cross, when it can cut so deeply into a person. But if you know how to use it in the right way, you can even strengthen your position (level of satisfaction) with it, which you defend so convulsively by nodding.
ATMs, as we know them, serve primarily to withdraw money, while at Lamassu bitcoin ATMs, the transaction goes in the other direction. But it's not about deposits, it's about an "exchange" that changes euros (or any of the other 200 currencies it accepts) into bitcoins. Use is child's play. You scan your bitcoin QR code, insert money and voilà, you can already spend with the Internet currency.
Touchscreen gloves are nothing new, but classic winter gloves are not the only ones that come into contact with touch screens. There are also gloves for bikers, skiers, boarders, protective gloves, latex gloves, etc., which are not compatible with them, although they are very common. Well, thanks to the Nanotips bottle, which can easily be mistaken for nail polish, they just found a common language.
Sosia falls under sofa beds, but if you saw her in any other 'pose' you'd think she'd been put in the wrong category. Sosia is a real chameleon, but she was born from the sofa and hence the categorization. It is a piece of equipment that adapts to conditions and wishes and is the real girl among furniture for everyone. It can be a sofa, a bed, a Spanish wall, a partition, two armchairs or a dressing room.
First the bad news. We have been hearing for decades that the world is coming to an end, that it is only a matter of time before we get there. And now the good news. It's not the destination that matters, it's the journey that matters. And if you come across the photos packed in our gallery along the way, you'll be able to walk away at peace with yourself when the time comes. So don't delay, so you won't regret it in the end!
