Snowboarding

Sherman Poppen is a surfer that found interest in surfing on a different medium, which, in this case, is snow. He built the first snowboard and called it the “snurfer”. The first batches of this board came out in the years 1965 to 1975. From a single board known as the “snurfer”, the snowboard developed into a “split type” at the beginning of 1991 to the early 2000s.

Lemon Curd

#British #lemon #curd is a rich and creamy #preserve. It pairs well with scones or tarts, but it can also make your plain old toast super fancy. Since lemon curd is made with egg yolks, it doesn’t last as long as other spreads. You’ve got about two weeks once you open up a jar of this lemony goodness. If you don’t eat it all before then, at least.

Let It Roll Festival 

Let It Roll is pretty much the mothership of drum and bass music. A former military airbase outside of Prague might sound like the perfect place for three days and nine spectacular stages at 170bpm. And that would be because it is.

When & where: August; Milovice, Czech Republic

Bottlenose Dolphin, Exceptional Intelligence

However, #dolphins also excel intelligence-based tests. Research shows that dolphins mirror self-recognition, cultural learning, comprehension of symbol-based communication systems, and an understanding of abstract concepts — comparable to #chimpanzees and other great #apes.

Wild One. The harness is both stylish and fits well. And it comes in several trendy colors — including lilac, blush and navy. You can also upgrade to a Walk Kit with a matching #leash and poop bag carrier. It takes a little wiggling at first, but it’s easy to slip on and off once you do it a couple times.
