Clothing Care Symbols

Ever look on a clothing tag for laundry instructions only to find a bunch of hieroglyph-like symbols that you can’t decipher? Primer Magazine has a simple chart that shows you what each one means.

Most of them are pretty easy to understand: a crossed out iron means “do not iron,” a crossed out dryer means “do not dry,” and so on. Other symbols are more confusing: a circle means “dry clean,” a triangle means “bleach,” and three dots means “high heat” inside of whatever other symbol is present.

Viral Video Lab teaches you how you can make a paper airplane fly forever, with the help of a preheated electric stove.

This awesome video shows you how to make a paper airplane fly endlessly. The principal is the same as in real aviation: thermals. Thermals allow real sailplanes to fly for hours. As real thermals are to strong for our self-made paper airplane, we are using a miniature thermal that everyone has in his kitchen: Hotplates. Four hot plates producing hot air which rises and let our paper plane fly as long as we want. The paper aeroplane must be centered while it performs it turns, in the middle of the for heating plates. so it took me about 87 takes to produce this video. if the paper airplane isn´t exactly in the centre of the plates, it will drop off. So feel free to build your own paper plane and let it fly as long as you want in your kitchen. Good Luck.
