Someone Invented Magic And It Is Freaking Us Out
For more stories about ridiculous things, follow us on Facebook. - “I am so sick of my T-shirt getting wet whenever I pour a lot of liquid on it!” “I wish my iPhone 4 or 5 would not get so damaged every time I carefully place it at the bottom of a jug filled with water!” “My new white shoes have been stained by the chocolate sauce and mustard I squeezed on them earlier! What gives?!” “This cardboard box I chose to hold all of the water is just not doing a great job of it! These are all things you’re used to saying, but you will be saying them no longer! It is “a family of super hydrophobic coating that completely repels water and heavy oils,” and you can buy it online here for $20 a can. Couple questions left unanswered: A) What does it taste like? B) What does it feel like? C) How much cancer will it give me, and how quickly? D) What happens if you get it on your hands and then you want to wash it off your hands?

First ever sighting of a White Lady Spider - Animal Camera - BBC cool spaces in donosti: COOL SPACES TOUR: Italian Rest in Notting Hill My love is sincere of this restaurant. Apart from the delicious food, I like rather than that the way they have added natural and artesanal touches in the decoration, as the food they cook. Just as in the kitchen and with truncs in mirrors. The use of the colour is another thing I like in this local. Enjoy the pictures! Este restaurante me gustó realmente. Enter your email address:

However, many chemicals with "everyday" uses are still available. This site gives an outline of chemicals that can be bought by private individuals and the companies that sell them. Contents List of Inorganic Chemicals List of Organic Chemicals List of All Suppliers The List and How to Use It This list should be regarded as a guideline, rather than a fully comprehensive directory of chemicals. The given suppliers are only those that I happen to know of. Unfortunately, the lists of suppliers are heavily biased towards Britain and America. For many chemicals, multiple sources are given.

Black Powder: Potassium Nitrate Note: There really are much easier ways of getting hold of this stuff. When I was a kid it came in decent quantities in chemistry sets. But if you insist on playing James-Bond-behind-enemy-lines, then give this a shot. I’ve sure as hell never tried it. — Tooch Potassium nitrate can be extracted from many natural sources and can be used to make nitric acid, black powder and many pyrotechnics. Note: Only the ratios of the amounts of ingredients are important. Procedure Punch holes in the bottom of the bucket.

Small Attic Loft Apartment In Prague The design of this modern loft conversion located in Prague, Czech Republic uses natural materials such as stone, brick and wood to enhance the flat and angular surfaces. Designed by architect Dalibor Hlavacek, the two-storey attic loft makes good use of limited floor space. The living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom are on the lower floor. The upper gallery, accessible via staircase and a steel footbridge, creates an intimate space for the study, which can also be used as a second bedroom.

Conservatorium Hotel by Piero Lissoni In the heart of Amsterdam nests this hotel that features 129 rooms and suites. Before the building was purchased by The Set Hotels, it was known as the historic Rijkspostspaarbank building and was occupied by the Sweelinck music conservatorium. Milan-based architect, Piero Lissoni, redesigned the building to satisfy a more modern palate and it opened as the Conservatorium Hotel in 2012. Conservatorium Hotel by Piero Lissoni: “Conservatorium Hotel Amsterdam occupies the famous site of Amsterdam’s former Sweelinck music conservatorium. Knuttel was praised for his ability to fuse simplicity and functionality, and the award-winning Milan-based furniture and interiors designer Piero Lissoni has embraced this tradition through the re-incarnation of this spectacular building 100 years later. Against the backdrop of the building’s incredibly rich history, the hotel has been consistently imbued with Lissoni’s signature style. Photos courtesy of Conservatorium Hotel
