Here's a few of the one page science strips I've been working on recently. I'll be doing many more of these. Anyone interested in giving them a home in their publication or website should let me know.

Uma casinha de cachorro high-tech, cortesia da Samsung

by Ronaldo Gogoni

samsung-dream-doghouse

De vez em quando a gente se esquece que a Samsung faz outras coisas que não sejam smartphones, TVs e lavadoras. A companhia é gigantesca, tem um setor de pesquisa e desenvolvimento que enche os olhos e causa inveja em muita gente, e sua equipe vira e mexe brinca com coisas menos comuns, por assim dizer.

É o caso dessa coisinha fofa acima. OK, estou falando do cachorro, mas o destaque é a casinha modernosa desenvolvida para uma feira de cães que será realizada no Reino Unido na próxima semana: é de matar o Astro de vergonha.

Sendo justo, não dá nem para chamar a Samsung Dream Doghouse de “casinha”: ela é praticamente um spa completo, com tudo do bom e do melhor, dando ao seu cãozinho um espaço bem confortável. Segundo o diretor de produção Brian Dowling, ela é “o canil do futuro” e tem de tudo um pouco. O design é retro-futurista com dois ambientes e porta transparente, e o acabamento interno com temas que segundo a Samsung cães acham atraentes, como ossos, patinhas e fotos de outros cães. O interior é todo estofado, como não podia deixar de ser.

Falemos da parte high-tech: a casinha possui um dispenser com um botão que o cãozinho poderá acionar quando quiser comer, uma esteira com grama artificial, uma mini-piscina de hidroterapia para banhos de rejuvenescimento e claro, um Galaxy Tab S embutido que o dono poderá alimentar com vídeos dedicados a sua mascote.

Crufts 2015- Samsung Dream Doghouse

Claro que todo esse luxo não é barato: a Samsung Dream Doghouse custa 20 mil euros, ou R$ 65.901,23 (valores de hoje). A mansão canina estará em exposição na Crufts Dog Show, uma feira de cães que está sendo realizada em Birmingham entre os dias 05 e 08 de março antes de mudar de endereço: isso porque a Samsung já sorteou a mesma em um concurso nas redes sociais.

Não há previsão de quando a casinha chegará ao mercado, mas imagino que muita gente vai se interessar mesmo por esse produto. Afinal, nossos bichinhos merecem conforto.

That’s right, hon-naaaaay, I am the Royal Flycatcher. Emphasis on the “royal” part. So if you can let go my leg and bow down before my regally epic fabulousness, we’ll get along fine.

You’re On Candid Camera, Rieke!

unnamedThere are some photos that make you smile instantly when you see them. We’re happy to present a few of those here! (From Tanja at the University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna, Austria.) This happens to be Bebeh Orang Rieke, born at the Berlin Zoo on January 12th. The staff is taking care of her after her mother unfortunately showed no interest in her. :( Photo from DerStandard.at.

sixpenceee:

Mount Roraima, South America: This tabletop mountain is one of the oldest mountains on Earth, dating back two billion years when the land was lifted high above the ground by tectonic activity. The sides of the mountain are sheer vertical cliffs, with several waterfalls, making it nearly impossible to climb.
