<p>These socks are going to be made from Australian merino wool and will feature left and right specific fit designs in addition to having built-in arch supports.</p>
<p>Although it hasn&#8217;t been said when these socks will be released for purchase, I&#8217;m sure that this much attention to a pair of socks can only make your hiking or walking experience more enjoyable and easy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Talk about going all out.</p>
<p>Victorinox, the company that makes the famous Swiss Army Knife, has come out with a limited edition <a href="http://www.swissarmy.com/multitools/SubCategory.htm?category=victoria&amp;" target="_blank">Victoria Collection</a> to celebrate the company&#8217;s 120th anniversary.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the catch. There are only going to be 120 pieces made worldwide, with two designs: Gold and Platinum Editions, with both being lined with 430 diamonds.</p>
<p>Besides the sick amount of jewelry on the knives, the 3-inch knives come with a tweezer, 2 sizes of blades, nail file and cleaner, scissors and an orange peeler with screwdriver.</p>
<p>Brace yourselves for the prices. The Platinum knife is going to run for $70,000 while the Gold is going for a much cheaper $50,000.</p>
<p>Hurry! Since they&#8217;re only a limited amount of these collector&#8217;s knives, you may want to cash in on the kids&#8217; college savings and put the house up for sale.</p>
<p>You can be 1 of those 120 lucky people!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is truly remarkable.<img src="http://images.smarter.com/blogs/femalelion.jpg" align="right" height="236" width="186" /></p>
<p>These two men helped to raise this lion, released it into the wild and then decided to come back after a year to see if it was doing OK.</p>
<p>Pretty gutsy move, since they wouldn&#8217;t know how the lion would react and know if she would remember them.</p>
<p>I could have swore they were going to get mauled when she jumps on them, but I was wrong. What&#8217;s even more crazy is to see the other wild lion appear and how surprisingly friendly she was as well.</p>

Well this guy did it in real life.</p>
<p>But he&#8217;s been on a bike ride for the past 45 years.</p>
<p>Heinz Stucke left his house in 1962 at the age of 22, and has yet to return. He&#8217;s been peddlin&#8217; his little behind off for over 335,000 miles, 211 countries and territories and is still going.</p>
<p>All on the same 3-speed bicycle.</p>
<p>He&#8217;s like that Energizer bunny. But on a bike.</p>
