The original Michelin Man from 1894.
He was is white because rubber tires are naturally white. It was not until 1912 that carbon chemicals were mixed into the white tires, which turned them black. The change was structural, not aesthetic. By adding carbon, tires became more durable.
Michelin also began reviewing restaurants so that more people would travel further distances in their cars to eat at these restaurants. This, in turn, would wear down their tires faster and force them to buy more.
The star system that Michelin uses goes up to three and is broken down by whether or not it's worth driving to the restaurant:
One star: "A very good restaurant in its category" (Une trรจs bonne table dans sa catรฉgorie)
Two stars: "Excellent cooking, worth a detour" (Table excellente, mรฉrite un dรฉtour)
Three stars: "Exceptional cuisine, worth a special journey" (Une des meilleures tables, vaut le voyage).

Established in 1880, Nara Park, Japan is home to over 1200 wild sika deer freely roaming around in the park and in the city, happy to be hand-fed by tourists. They are classified as a national treasure
This is what happens when it rains
