Customized Robot Jeeves - Virtual Butler Summoned Through Magic Mirror (GALLERY)

Imagine never having to stick your hand in a toilet bowl again, never having to scrape crusted on food off a pan or never having to scrub at scuff marks on the floor. In the future, you could have a robot that does all the messy work for you thanks to a new customized, Virtual Butler. Even simpler than a magic genie in a lamp, summoning your charming robo maid is as easy as evoking him from a magic mirror (which looks normal until you call on him!)

Talk about cool cribs. The 16-foot circle of flooring is fitted with four motors and some wheels beneath the steel frame of the floor.

A Building Made Of Cash

Do you remember Donald Duck's wealthy uncle swimming in his vault of coins?

5 Decadent Hot-Spots of New York - Luscious Desserts

Are Fashion Designers Collaborating? - Paris Fashion Week Originals (GALLERY)

This faucet belongs in Futurama home. It totally changes the way hot and cold water are mixed and controlled. Get this: you move the ball in or out to control the flow and pressure.

UAE No. '1' License Plate Sets World Record - $14 Million Goes To Charity (GALLERY)

I think its a good strategy by the Emarati government to auction exclusive vanity plates to ridiculously wealthy people and use the money for a good cause.

Think the Chinese don't know fashion? Jefen may change your mind. Not having celebrities next to the catwalk or on the catwalk doesn't mean you can't find some cool and unexpected fashion.

The Diamond Scrabble board is absolutely gorgeous, and is more likely to go up on a wall (behind a glass case) than on a table top for family game's night.
