It might look like baby steps, but for robotics, it's a giant leap. Boston Dynamics shows their Atlas robot walking over uneven ground with small footholds — something almost comical to watch compared to the ease with which a human could perform the same feat. But while Atlas might be slow now, this small step puts humanoid robots even closer to an every-day reality.

McGinley, and Michael Rooker, the film's slated for release March 17, 2017.

Like fine timepieces, quality pens require detailed craftsmanship. That's evident in the perpetual calendar mechanism of the Anytime pen from Paolo Favaretto and Montegrappa. The pen's lid has three notched dials for the date, day, and month that provide haptic feedback when adjusted and lock into place using technology from the company's ratchet piston-fill mechanism. The pen is available in two models: Maestro, with a black resin and Delrin body with stainless steel trim, and Supremo, with a red resin body and yellow gold-plated brass trim. Both rollerball and fountain versions are available; the latter models have 18k gold nibs, and every pen regardless of model is limited to 365 numbered pieces and arrives pre-adjusted to show the date of manufacture.

Never underestimate the power of editing. If you thought The Witch was just a terrifying New England folktale, you'd be completely wrong. Just add some classically-styled music, a few title cards in Futura font, and you have the next eagerly-awaited Wes Anderson film.
With approximately 105,000 nuclear weapons in the world, nukes are all around you — if you live in a nuclear-capable country.
