]]>“Originally working on an iPhone, my found fashion can be picked-up on a lunch break and made back in the office.

]]>Since the crowdfunding launched on July 22, it has been published on the web, TV, newspaper and several media outlets. In just one week, they exceeded the target amount of 66 million yen and received over 69 million yen with 4,200 supporters.
The project was two years in the making and the team surveyed businessmen in Tokyo about how they’d like to stay cool while wearing suits. Sony created the model and it works by using thermoelectric cooling which can lower the user’s body temperature by 13 degrees Celsius (23 degrees Fahrenheit). Sony said it can also be used as a heater on winter days, raising your temperature by around 8 degrees Celsius.
Reon Pocket comes with a custom-designed t-shirt that has a pocket at the base of the neck. The device connects to an app which allows users to control the temperature through their smartphone. The portable air conditioner, which weighs around 85 grams, works with both IOS and Android via USB-c and has a battery life of 90 minutes and a charge time of 2 hours.
Sony aims to launch the wearable device in time for the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Watch Reno’s Pocket’s preview below.

]]>“Our goal,” according to the website, “is to merge fantasy with the playful side of Africa and infuse a little fun, color, and magic into the everyday things in life.”
Though life is difficult in many parts of Africa, there is also a lot of joy, laughter, creativity, development and so much more that we don’t see very often.
“I also believe that there are a lot of beautiful and interesting aspects to African culture and legends that people from all over the world can appreciate. And when I noticed how hard it was to find books that incorporated African culture in a light-hearted and fun way, I decided to write one,” Brownstone wrote on Bored Panda.
Her book is an illustrated chapter book series for children, featuring Feyi Fay, an African fairy who travels the world with the help of a magical app to help children of the world with their everyday problems such as bullying, making friends, etc.
Each series is packed with a magical adventure full of mystery, science fiction, suspense, humor, and life lessons. Though each story takes place in a different country, every book contains a touch of Nigerian culture, legends or folktales, that kids will surely adore.

]]>“As a reputable construction and landscape grading company, we know how to construct and quickly change the landscape of a property to the satisfaction of the owner. Whether the job entails digging out a plot of land or grading the ground so that our pond installers can fix a retention pond, we’re capable of performing any professional-grade excavation,” reads the website.
The construction company specializes in designing and building beautiful “swimming ponds” that have crystal blue water surrounded by sand. The installation services include planning and digging the pond and adding equipment, accessories, and landscaping. Zydeco guarantees their ponds and pools to be long-lasting and can withstand constant use, extreme weather conditions and other severe elements. Their materials such as pumps, liners, waterproofing products, and tiles are top of the line, manufactured by leading suppliers in the country.
If you want to build a swimming pond in the backyard, Zydeco can transform your dream into a full-fledged reality. Prices vary depending on the size and additions that can be added to the pond. They also sell custom and stock pond designs for anyone looking to subcontract out the work themselves.
