An owl that likes to land on people’s heads has rocketed a small Dutch town to fame. Menno Shaefer, a 48-year-old from Zaandam, Netherlands, managed to document this friendly 6lb (2.7kg) European Eagle Owl as it tried to roost on the heads of onlookers in Noordeinde town. There, it sat for up to a minute before looking for another resting spot.

As a parent you find yourself explaining things to your child that you never thought you'd have to explain in your life. You quickly find out that toddlers are like your drunk, overemotional friend that can have a complete swing in the mood at any given moment. "Reasons My Son Is Crying" is one of the funniest blogs on the internet. It's a hilarious collection of parent-submitted pictures of their child crying along with an explanation of why the kid is so upset.

We’ve all been there at one point or another: a time-out for not sharing your toy, a Saturday detention for passing notes in class, a stern talking-to from your boss for forgetting to make a copy of that really important invoice. It never feels good when you get caught doing something you weren’t supposed to do. These pups feel your pain…well, some of them do. Others don’t think that they did anything wrong at all, despite the signs of shame they stand beside — yet somehow we’ll always...

Sometimes things just suck. You try to be positive and put on a happy face and all that jazz, but sometimes? Let's be real. Sometimes things are just terrible. The good thing, though, is that you're not alone in the struggle. Here are some other instances of day-ruining events that, for once, aren't happening to you.

Unless you're spending an arm and a leg on high-end furniture, trying to assemble prepackaged parts that are supposed to resemble a couch you bought is pretty much futile. Either the instructions are difficult to understand, none of the pieces fit correctly, or there are missing parts. Why put yourself through the hassle of building a poorly designed, mass-produced piece of furniture when it won't even turn out right? Instead of wasting your time, you could build something like...

Lithuanian artist “Nestre” creates unique steampunk jewelry like earrings, pendants, rings, cuff-links, bracelets and hairpins. All jewelry is made by hand using tiny, real wristwatch and pocket watch parts (gears, cogs, arrows, wheels, bridges, springs etc.).

Skateistan, an innovative NGO in Kabul founded to empower Afghan children (and especially young girls), teaches children to skateboard as a gateway to get them more involved in education.
