Designer Jim Rodda wants to make sure Barbie is ready for battle in this 3D-printed medieval armor.

Barbie can be anything — an astronaut, doctor, Air Force pilot, rock star, police officer, computer engineer — so why not a warrior? That’s exactly what 3D designer Jim Rodda, known as Zheng3 in the hobbyist 3D-printing community, envisioned when he started a Kickstarter campaign to create Barbie-compatible 3D-printed medieval armor.
It started because Rodda’s 4-year-old niece has a birthday coming up and he wanted to design and print a unique gift for her.
“The original plan was to make My Little Pony-compatible glitter cannons, but the engineering turned out to be beyond what I could handle in a reasonable amount of time,” Rodda told Crave. “So I back-burnered that idea, but was still interested in making accessories for toys she already had. I’ve been playing Dungeons and Dragons since forever, so my design thinking often goes towards fantasy medieval themes. From there it’s a short mental hop to armor for Barbie dolls.”

HTC had admitted that it needs to do a better job at marketing and advertising to improve its sales. The company launched a very costly campaign last year featuring Robert Downey Jr. That campaign was entirely focused upon change, but it didn’t quite bring the results that the company would have hoped for. So now its turning towards another Marvel Avenger. HTC has started building up hype as its 2013 flagship is going to the big screen. The HTC One is going to make an appearance in the upcoming Marvel flick, Captain America: The Winter Soldier.

At Mobile World Congress 2014 last month Samsung announced its new crop of wearable devices, two new smartwatches as well as a fitness tracker. A few weeks after that rumors started floating around about another wearable device, even though the company hadn’t said anything about it during the event. It was believed to be the second generation S Band. While the company hasn’t made an official announcement yet, it has already started showing off the wearable device in Germany. The device is called Activity Tracker, and it does pretty much exactly what the name implies.

Eating a slice of pizza on the go isn’t the neatest option on the menu. But it’s technically a quick meal on the go, and if you’ve gotta eat, you gotta eat.
Aiming to make eating pizza less of a mess is KonoPizza.
With over 130 locations worldwide, KonoPizza serves up pizza in a cone in all sorts of outrageous flavors, including the likes of Tiramisu pizza that’s filled with cream, biscuit and coffee syrup. There’s also the breakfast-in-a-cone pizza called Pancetta Prima that’s filled with eggs, bacon, and cheese. If you’re not as adventurous, you can go for the usual pizza toppings as your cone fillings, like cheese, sausage, and ham. Plus, each KonoPizza is portion-controlled, so they’re actually pretty low in calories and fat.
So far, there are only a couple of U.S. locations of Kono Pizza, including one in Edison, New Jersey, and another opening very soon in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Mmm-hmm!
