Cats always could see well in the dark.  Rechargeable flashlight – no additional batteries needed. A hand crank recharges the permanent battery when the juice is low…or you can just rub it against a balloon.

Once you’ve had it 6 months you can’t throw it away (unless you live in Mexico). 

You’re looking at the birth of a completely new kind of jewelry.  The Origin necklace is an interesting piece found at Studio Mango.  Habit may have you trying to wear this on your face, but it actually fits around your neck.  If you don’t like it there, the Origin jewelry piece is also available as a bracelet.

There’s something clever and compelling when we can relate an aesthetic accessory (or any consumer based object for that matter) with a secondary image or concept.  Why have a beautiful necklace when you can have a beautiful necklace that doubles as a sculpture?  Why have a knife holder when you can have a piece of art decorating your kitchen?  This concept tends to be especially true when the inspiration is derived from nature.  There is a 1 in 1,250 chance that you will look retarded wearing this necklace*.

*Odds may increase if you are over the age of 35.

According to Wired (or rather a source of theirs), Audi’s plans of producing the all-electric R8 for the world at large has been kaput.  Apparently, the German automaker see’s the limitations of todays battery technology and feels that baby steps to the tone of hybrid-electric A1, A3, A4, and Q7’s are a more sagacious road to eventually unleashing a pure electric model that will sell to someone other than the sociopathic millionaire with micropenis and an external locus of self identity.

BoostTurbine2000: Rechargeable USB Battery Pack with Hand Turbine Power Generator

Charge this back-up battery from a conventional wall outlet, or in a pinch use the hand-crank to create about 30 seconds of call time for each minute of manual labor; depending on your level of rotary expertise and gumption.

According to Eton, the Boost Turbine 2000 and 1000 model numbers denote the mAh capacity of the batteries in each unit, and should for most smartphones transfer a full or half charge respectively.  Though this device is pretty nifty, it doesn’t seem particularly practical.  If you ever find yourself in a situation where your phone is dead and there’s no place to charge it, borrow another phone, or just wait, are you really going to be lugging around a back-up charging device; and even if you do, is this place even going to have signal?

Well, if your situation calls for a back-up phone charger, this might be a good choice.  The 2000 unit is $59 and the 1000 model is $49, which considering the price of phone batteries and the application versatility, it’s a pretty good deal.

Today Apple finally announced the new iPad mini, Thank God!  The other one was so damn cumbersome.

After months of rumors, Apples CEO Tim Cook introduced the new device at an exclusive event in San Jose, California.  Much to the crowds chagrin, he was not wearing a turtleneck or Ben Franklin spectacles.

The new iPad mini is Apples response to America’s attention span as well as Google’s Nexus 7 and Amazon’s new Kindle Fire HD.  About 2 inches smaller than the regular iPad, with a 7.9-inch screen, the mini weighs about half that of it’s porpoise brother.  The weight differential may be attributed in part to the mini’s waist line, at only 7.22mm thick (a hair over a quarter inch for all you non-metric readers). Though disguised with it’s beveled edges, the original iPad was a full 3/8th of an inch thick…how is this easier than metric?

Ok, so what does it cost?  Again, to the crowds chagrin, about $329 for the basic 16GB model, but it doesn’t really matter, Pavlov’s Mac-er’s will lineup around the block to eat from the Apple.

Talk about anorexic.  The 3D Ribs Dress from Back Milk is limited, so if you want it, you need to act soon.

It’s about time there’s a dress that’s slimming and not black.  The Ribs Dress isn’t overly flashy, just the bare bones.  Want to make an impression at your next job interview?  Want people to know what you’re made of? Want men to know you have a backbone?  Try the dress that tells everyone what kind of creature you are. Remember, it’s what’s on the inside that counts.

This is a hip dress with nothing humerus about it, but don’t be surprised when people find a bone to pick with you.

Aside from this dress looking pretty damn cool, the 3D feature actually works!  You get a free pair of 3D glasses when you purchase this dress so that you can see your ribs in 3D, of course, your image in the mirror is already 3D, so I guess you’ll see these in 6D! Awesome.

I imagine 6D looks like a 3D Picasso painting or maybe like Barbra Streisand’s face after a heavy dose of LSD.

Sugar is #sweet and you are #teews…think about it.

If you’re not a HTML coder or savvy geek ,
to you, this shirt is basically Greek.
So, what is hexadecimal html color code you ask”?
It’s a radix 16 color system for assigning a web task.
Still don’t get it, don’t worry its not worth your time.
Plus, I can’t explain it better and still have it rhyme.

If you do understand what this shirt is saying,
you might wonder if the price is worth paying.
The answer to that question is: “why, yes of course”
I can guarantee you will not have buyers remorse.
For, to see all the simple people with blank stares,
is silent satisfaction for all their options and shares.
When they’re puzzled staring through their glasses,
yell, “surprise” and jam your resignation up into their pockets.

I leave you with:
Roses are red, Violets are blue
Some poems rhyme, this one doesn’t

 
Now you can have Uranium and you’re ketchup all in the same place!

A fun way to learn your elements or subject your children to your quirky interests.  The Periodic Table Magnets from Simple Memory Art comes in one sheet and can be separated into individual elements (well, not actual elements, but you get the idea). 
Mix and match the elements to arrange your own table, perhaps outsmarting Dmitri Mendeleev in the process, but you’ll probably just make a mess.

Size: 7.4" x 10.5" (Sheet)

I have an idea, let’s combine the best taste ever with the best feeling ever then sell it for under 10 bucks!

The Chocolate Pen Set from Gasworks Inc. is a pair of 1.4 ounce chocolate and strawberry body pens. Use the tasty paste to draw designs or write love notes on your lovers body.  The pens are easy to write with and can even be used for decorating cakes and other baked goods.

By heating the pens in warm water, you can determine how viscous you want the chocolate to be.  Never mind the application, the taste alone makes this a great product, I give the chocolate pen set two thumbs up.  These make a great wedding or anniversary gift, as do the other risqué products from Gasworks Inc. 

*Size: Each pen is appx 6" tall x 1" wide
