Does the ‘Harry Potter’ invisibility cloak REALLY exist? If you are Harry Potter fan, the invisibility cloak might just be on the list of magical things you want to own. Well, the wish isn’t so far-fetched now as it seems like a Chinese firm has managed to create the cloak. Don’t believe it? [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Then you need to watch this video. Chen Shiqu, deputy head of Criminal Investigation Department at Ministry of Public Security China, shared a video claiming the cloak could be useful to the military. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] The caption of the clip reads: ‘This is a quantum technology-made cloth that is made of transparent material, it can reflect the light wave around the person who wears it so it can make the person disappear.” The 1.31-minute video that shows a man holding a cloak that hides him, while making the background visible has left many Netizens baffled. With more than 55,000 views, the clip has gone viral. While some were excited after looking at the video, others called it “fake”. “He’s literally just holding a green screen,” one user commented, and another one wrote: “Man behind the Cloak became invisible but the plants behind the man remain visible ….

Woman finds fox sleeping in her cat’s bed ... A ginger cat called George was recently outfoxed when he returned from a walk in the garden to find an uninvited guest had taken over his bed. “When I came downstairs, and walked passed the kitchen into the bathroom, I did a double take as in the kitchen window I could see a pair of huge ears,” said George’s owner, 47-year-old Meloney Blayze from Petts Wood, south east London. “‘I thought, “hmm, those are not the cat’s ears”, and I turned the light on to look at what was in the cat’s bed – and it was a fox.” [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Meloney had woken up at 4am to let George out of the kitchen window and into the garden, but the fox had sneaked in after she’d gone back to sleep and made itself comfortable in the unsuspecting cat’s bed.

[Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] “He was very tame, he did not want to leave,” she said. Given the cold spell sweeping the UK at the moment, we can’t really blame him! |

Delicate and offensive teacups to insult your guests with class. Social norms might restrict you from revealing to people how you feel about them, but that doesn't mean you can't get around it. Miss Havisham's has created a delicate series of not-so-subtly insulting cups "for the lady who speaks her mind," and the collection deserves to be inside everybody's cupboard. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] "A wise woman once told me, 'If you got hate in your heart, you gotta let it out,'" Melisa Johnson, the woman behind Miss Havisham's wrote. "By far, our favorite way to release it is by stewing over a scalding cup of tea." Available in blue, aqua, or yellow, each cup comes with a saucer and a strong dose of brutal honesty. The phrases include "Kindly fuck off," "Please, go die," and other classics. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] "I've been an animation producer for 20 years and this was a much needed creative outlet," Melissa explained her connection with tableware to *Bored Panda*. "My grandmother was a (crazy) sometimes-antique dealer and I grew up in an eccentric family surrounded by lovely, but often broken, things. Every woman in my family is a Miss Havisham to some degree so I guess old and creepy imprinted on me because pretty much everything I love is chipped and discarded." [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] "I love the juxtaposition of high brow and low. Here are these delicate and prissy cups that aren’t really what they seem on the outside and neither are most of us. They have a history and they also have spunk. Context is really everything. [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] They can be super mean I suppose but if you don’t get my sense of humor there’s really nowhere to go from there." [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] "We hate your baby" is Melissa's favorite phrase from the whole collection. "No one is going to say that out loud but we’ve all thought it at one time or another. Oddly enough, that cup is particularly popular with parents which surprised me." [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] [Verstecktes Bild - Registrierung notwendig] Available individually or as a set, these insulting teacups and saucers start at around $60.
