This Lion Sculpture Is Made out of Tires: I Said Tire Iron, Not Tire Lion!
This lion sculpture is made entirely out of old shredded tires by artist Yong Ho Ji and was spotted by Redditor m1keyth while at the Beyond Limits sculpture expo in Chatsworth, UK. All I can say is that lions look awesome made from tires. I’d love to see a dragon now too.
Who knew that tire art could look this good? We should be making tire sculptures everywhere just to stop them from going to the landfills. At least we know that if this lion ever comes to life, it is going to be able to get a firm grip on you with its claws, even in the rain.
I would hate to be the guy who has to Armor All this sucker. That would be an all day job.
You can check out numerous other awesome tire sculptures over on Yong Ho Ji’s website.

Lion Hat Turns Your Pet Cat into a Pet Lion
Some cats are small but terrible – in a good way of course. Like they say, the best surprises come in the smallest of packages, and cats fit this description to a tee: they might not be the biggest pet in your home or the biggest creature in the world, but they’ve got personalities as big as can be and they’re often not afraid to show it.
This is why the Lion Hat is so appropriate and fitting for your feline companion.
It’s basically a miniature mane that’ll transform your cat into a miniature lion. It’s probably already the king (or queen) of your home as speak, so why not make it official and crown it with a fiery mane of glory?
Of course, it’s not limited to feline use, as the Lion Hat fits most average-sized cats and dogs. So if you want, you can also dress your canine pals up to be the king of their own domains. The hat is made from synthetic fur, while the ears are crafted from plush felt.
It’s as adorable as pet hats and costumes can get, and it’s available online for $38(USD) at Nesta’s Nest on Etsy.

OS X camera RAW compatibility update adds Sony RX1, Nikon D5200 and more
Apple's 'Digital Camera RAW Compatibility Update 4.04' is out, and although we rarely report on these frequent releases, there are a few notable shooters named in this particular version. Available for Macs running OS X Lion 10.7.5 and above, or Mountain Lion 10.8.2 and above, the update now allows RAW snaps from Sony's compact Cyber-shot RX1 and Nikon's D5200 SLR to play nice with Aperture and iPhoto software. Plenty of other cameras are also on the changelog: Leica's X2, V-Lux 4 and D-Lux 6, as well as Pentax's Q, K-30, K-5 II and IIs. A quick trip to the App Store will get you on the latest version and have you cooking something up in Aperture before you can say "medium-rare." Bon appétit.
