Here is a cute project for those with pets – particularly with the hot weather coming up here in the Southern hemisphere. It is an Automatic Pet Water Bowl that works in the same way as water coolers in offices. And it looks really really easy to build. Full instructions on the site.

Also, there is a story on the SMH about how Hollywood is going crazy for a new teddy bear from Australia. It’s called the Flatout Bear and is billed as “the ultimate luxury teddy bear”. The bears – made “flat” from Australian sheepskin – are used as baby comforters or toys. So cute.
