“Vasek and Honza, two pupils of an elementary school in a small village, artfully move through the expositions of the Brno fair. They collect many leaflets, thoroughly inspect everything and constantly gorge themselves with various delicacies, which gives Vasek a bad stomach. The next day, however, everything is all right. These two boys, whose overactive imaginations keep them far from the top of the class, tell their classmates about their adventures, both real and made-up. In their dreamed-up world, there is an automatic machine which can fulfill one wish to everybody.” NFA.cz on IMDb

I know that we espouse the virtues of monochrome laser printers, but if you really need the ability to print in color, Canon's Pixma MX922 is worth your consideration. Carrying a #1 seller badge on Amazon and over 7,000 mostly positive user reviews, this is the rare Inkjet printer that you might not actually hate.
This model sells for $90 pretty consistently, but today, you can snag one for $70.
Escort's Max II is one of the most advanced radar/laser detectors you can buy, and $400 is the best price Amazon's ever offered. If it saves you from a few speeding tickets, it'll have paid for itself.

If you're a student, or know one that will lend you their identity, you can stream every out of market NFL game, plus Red Zone channel and DirecTV Fantasy Zone for just $100 for the full season.
I had this last year, and it made it incredibly easy to watch my Atlanta Falcons piss away a promising start to the season. You can stream on just about any laptop, tablet, smartphone, or game console. When you sign up though, you'll need to supply a valid school, student name, and birthdate, though oddly enough, not a .edu email address.
Just note that you'll only be able to stream out of market games, so you'll need an antenna to watch anything on your local Fox or CBS affiliate, and it won't get you access to nationally televised games on NBC or ESPN.
Summer isn't kind to your wiper blades, so if you've been struggling to see the road through streaks on your windshield, Amazon's offering up a pair of Bosch Insight Blades for just $22 right now. Just pick the two you need, add them to your cart, and the discount should appear automatically. The deal even allows you to mix and match sizes, so you can almost certainly find a combination that will work for your car.
Note: The discount will only work on blades shipped and sold by Amazon directly. No third party sellers.

HBO's Westworld premieres on Oct. 2 at 9 p.m., just shy of two years after it was first announced in 2014.
The series is inspired by the late Michael Crichton's 1973 film in which a future-world amusement park's lifelike robots malfunction and start murdering guests. The HBO take, created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, expands on that premise in a way that touches on current tech trends.
Nolan explained in a prepared statement that he'd like the show to ask the question, "If you could be completely immersed in a fantasy, one in which you could do whatever you wanted, would you discover things about yourself that you didn't want to know?" Read more...

And for the first time in history, The International Olympic Committee named 10 refugee athletes — from Syria, South Sudan, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo — who will compete as Team Refugee Olympic Athletes.
