Geekologie - Gadgets, Gizmos, and Awesome House With Separate Staircase Made For Small Dogs
This is a house in Vietnam designed by architecture firm 07Beach with a separate set of stairs made especially for small dogs so they don't have to tackle the regular sized stairs. Some people really care about their pets. Other people walk their dogs and pretend to be texting while they know good and well their dog is shitting in my yard. Those people do not care about their pets because good pet ownership involves RESPONSIBILITY. You don't get to ignore the parts you don't like. "Whatever, you let your dog shit in my yard." That is not my dog's. I also pee in your pool at night. Keep going for a couple more shots.Sent with Reeder

Clayton Kershaw rolled into Queens last night and took a katana to the Mets’ lineup, striking out 11 and allowing just three hits in nine shutout innings. But whatever, the real star of the show (as usual) was Bartolo Colon.
The show is called Sekai No Hate Made Itteq! (translated: Riddles at the Ends of the Earth!)

Always a little befuddled about how to style your coffee table so that it looks good but not too cluttered? So that it makes the rest of your living room feel great but also functions? There are six styling "formulas" you can stick to that are guaranteed to always look good.
iOS/Android: No one likes standing around to wait for a table. You’re hungry and bored, and if you head to a different place, there may be an even longer wait. This free app alleviates some of that frustration by telling you the wait times of nearby eateries.
NoWait uses your location to map out nearby establishments, then it simply tells you how long you can expect to wait for a table. The app asks for your phone number, but you can also skip this step and just look at the list or map of restaurants. If you do give your phone number, you can also use the app to communicate with a handful of restaurants to claim a place in line.
Of course, in order to work, these restaurants have to use NoWait’s service. So it can be hit or miss, but a number of big chains use them: Buffalo Wild Wings, Chili’s and and Friday’s to name a few. The app has thousands of other chain and independent restaurants in their directory, and they’re expanding.
I was surprised at how many restaurants were included in my area, but I should point out that not every restaurant near me was included. Again, it can be hit or miss, and your mileage may vary depending on your location. But with so many partners, it’s a useful app.
In their privacy policy, they do say they collect information about how you use the app. Here’s how they say they use that info:
We use the information that you provide us to: fulfill transactions; operate the Service; respond to your requests; improve our Service, and; communicate with you. We DO NOT sell your PII to third parties or mass marketers. Unless you consent to the disclosure of your PII, only NoWait and our affiliates, technical consultants, third-party administrators and other third parties who make our Service available, enhance its functionality, or provide associated services, have access to this information.

Minor league promotions are a mixed bag. For every gloriously bizarre event like “bring your badger to the ballpark” or whatever, there’s a 4-H Night or a grass giveaway or a sad appearance by a washed-up celebrity. Sunday’s appearance by Corey Feldman at the State College (Penn.) Spikes appeared to fall into the “boring” category, but it attained an air of mystery after the team issued an apology—but for what exactly, it wouldn’t say.
Now that Ant-Man is out, Phase Two of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is over. This slate of six movies began with Iron Man 3, and included some bold experiments (Guardians of the Galaxy) as well as huge upheavals. Now that it’s over, where do all our favorite characters stand? Let’s get you up to speed for Phase Three.
