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?
The range of speakers on the market is as saturated as the sky on a clear night with stars, so you have to do something really special to stand out. Since the North Star was already occupied, something else had to be found. And the Om/One was born, a speaker that floats with the help of a magnet and will probably be a real magnet for buyers because of its appearance, especially since it quickly caught on to the audio nickname Death Star.
If you want to shoot 'action' shots, but you don't like the GoPro camera, the Polaroid Cube is your right choice. Although it's a cube that's not much bigger than a sugar cube and, unlike the GoPro 'horror', it's downright sweet to look at, just to eat, but it has everything the big ones have. It is waterproof, shockproof, Full HD (in 1080p resolution), and with the help of a magnet it adapts to all possible surfaces/objects.
Especially if we know that a picture is worth a thousand words. But anyway. Judging by the number of followers, you would think that it is a famous person. But no, Rober Jahn is not a well-known face, but he is the face behind the camera and the processing of the photos that he publishes on Instagram, which took his name under the pseudonym Nois7 from the world of anonymity.
Summer is like ordered for fruit. With its juiciness and freshness, it is a natural air conditioner for our overheated and dehydrated bodies. And, if we add to that the fact that it takes care of our health and appearance, it simply cannot be missing from the menu. But even if we know the fruit until we visit or to pedestrians, but this does not mean that we know how to enjoy it properly. Well, I don't mean when, but especially how.
The words leftist and rightist have had a rather negative connotation ever since they came into the hands of politicians. But let's wave our hands - right or left? - at this definition and rather focus on the real problem of leftism and rightism, which is not political, but biological in nature. In a world tailored for right-handed people, it's not easy for left-handed people.
Paul Mawhinney, a former record store owner in Pittsburgh, has been collecting records for more than 40 years, and by last year had accumulated about three million records. Among them, many that were just crowding the shelves and could not find buyers even at ridiculously low prices. Although it is an heirloom in dire need of a digital record, Paul did not find a buyer for a long time. Until the music omnibus was bought by bus magnate Zero Freitas.
The beginnings of adrenaline rides date back to the 17th century, in Russia, and the wagons were first placed on rails in France in the 19th century. 131 years ago, we got the famous "Gravitational Pleasure" railway in New York, where the "first hand-held" cars "crushed" at a speed of 10 km/h. Yes, you read that right, 10 km/h. Which is nothing compared to the speeds they reach today. And where in the world can we find the craziest trains? In America, of course!
Advertisements are full of stereotypical images that very narrowly define the ideal of beauty and social roles and, despite the declarative emancipation of the sexes, are still too often based on lived-in, patriarchal values, not to mention the departure of female and male images from the norms of authenticity. But what happens when we apply female stereotypes to men? The video has the answer.
They say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Well, apparently sometimes, at least if we judge by Apple's series of products that they tried to sell under their own brand in the 80s on the wings of the Mac's success. Mind you, there used to be a time when it wasn't a given that people would grab everything Apple had to offer. iSurfboard, iToy Truck, iClip. Yes, even Apple has its bad apples.
You know photobombs, right? What aren't the upper arms and forearms in selfies just that? With the difference that these photobombs are not added value, but spoil the photo. But if we want to be in the team, this is the only option, even if it is a rotten compromise. As is also the manual tripod, which only treats the symptom, while the "alien" disease remains in the photo. But no more, here comes the cure, CaseCam for iPhone 5 and 5S, a selfie savior.
Julius Caesar's saying "Divide and rule" has always been relevant, but probably never more so than with the advent of Facebook and Twitter. In a little while, likes and retweets will become currency, because it seems that ruling the Internet and advertising is no longer enough. Chasing them is a modern gladiatorial game, which does not measure the quality of the 'competitor' but his popularity. And there is no better arena than a music video.
