These are some of the most sophisticated pot accessories I've seen

New York-based Marley Natural has just unveiled its Black Walnut Accessories Collection, a beautiful line of pot gear that will do exactly what a plastic bottle from your fridge will do, but in way more style.

The collection is made from black walnut wood pieces that are accented by heat resistant hand-blown glass. There's a taster ($35), a spoon pipe ($68), a steamroller ($72), and a bubbler ($162). The glass pieces are debuting alongside two trays ($65 and $78), two storage containers ($30 and $52), and a grinder ($88), and look like "something I would display, rather than hide, when company is over," says David Merten, Marley Natural's creative director.

When Mickey Went Gothic

In the 1930s, Universal's hits like Dracula and Frankenstein had everyone buzzing, and Walt Disney wanted a piece of that spooky action for his biggest star. The result was The Mad Doctor —a frantic, gothic horror show where Mickey Mouse has to brave a booby-trapped castle full of dancing, self-assembling skeletons to rescue his snatched dog, Pluto. It was the first time audiences saw a truly terrified Mickey. Not only did some theaters refuse to screen the short film, but the British Board of Film Censors (BBFC) outright banned it, deeming it "too gruesome" for kids.
