03.30.2006Motorized salt & pepper mills
I'm not big on salting and peppering my food, but I know some people who season their already seasoned food so heavily, they could actually use motorized salt and pepper mills. These run on four AAA batteries, and shine a beam of light onto your plate so you can see how much seasoning is actually coming down. I just like their thoroughly modern look. I don't know if they're available anywhere in the U.S., but they're sold at online store innovations-e (Spanish language site). Via Gadgetizer Posted by Hoyun

03.30.2006A Perfect Clock Radio
Oh what a radio! The Boston Acoustics Receptor Radio is in a class without peer because: the front left knob can be tuned to preset stations. Yes, preset stations are a common feature on both stereo and car radios – but I challenge one to find it on a clock radio! And on a clock radio is where you need preset stations the most – since you're probably listening in the dark, at night and, depending on how early you get up, in the morning. This radio presets both AM and FM stations, so no need to switch bands. The second most remarkable thing is the sound quality and perfect reception. The sound is rich and deep in bass. Even after owning one for over a month, I’m still surprised when I turn it on. Friends look around for the stereo in my room and when I saucily point to the clean white box beside my bed, they say, “NO way!” I am not a morning person. Most days I am grumpy and angry, or depressed. But now I look forward to waking up, my radio faithfully kick starting me into a day. The sound is that pleasurable. Get it at Amazon. Posted by Christy

03.30.2006Mold and Germ Destroying Air Purifier
How clean is the air you breathe? Well if you have a Mold and Germ Destroying Air Purifier at home, I'll wager it's pretty good. This little compact air cleaning unit heats air to 392°F, destroying mold, bacteria, pet dander, and much more (like dust mites - ew!). Unlike other air cleaning units of its type, this purifier does not increase levels of indoor ozone, in fact, it lowers them. Plus it's easy to clean and maintain and will not alter the overall room temperature (even with its smokin' hot core). It is however, recommended that you run the purifier constantly (like 24x7). But at least the machine claims to draw less power than a 60 watt light bulb so if you're the type to forget turning the lights off at night you won't be any worse off when it comes to your electric bills.

03.29.2006Just in case you thought Ambervision sunglasses were making a comeback…
Nike Vision has introduced serious contact lenses for serious athletes. Nike Maxsight lenses block most of the blue light that causes glare, enhancing clarity and contrast. Available in both prescription and non-prescription formats, there are two colors to suit your sport: grey-green for golf and running, and amber for soccer, tennis, baseball, etc. The lenses are manufactured by Bausch & Lomb, a leader in the contact lens industry. They can appear a bit strange to others, as they cover your entire pupil in a dark color. Kind of reminiscent of those 'for fun' lenses that give you cat eyes or all white eyes and are popular at Halloween. Should you wish to be a trend-setter and bring back the oh-so-stylish Ambervision, you're in luck, as they're still available! Posted by Brian

03.29.2006Off to see the Whiz (ard)...
Awhile ago we blogged the Feminal, but what about those times when you don't need to store it away for later disposal? Well there's always the Whiz. Like the Freshette, the Whiz redirects your feminine flow, allowing you to be just like one of the guys. Try it if you have to go camping. I bet it sure beats having to crouch. Posted by Katherine

03.29.2006AZERTY objects
I love computer-themed jewelry for keeping it real and paying homage to the nerd life. AZERTY Objects use selected keyboard characters and turn them into lovely rings. Who knew? Now those tap-tappin' keys can grace your hands, giving you a clever "esc" or "help" whenever you need it. Posted by Katherine

03.28.2006Grobag Egg Room Thermometer
I've become nearly obsessive about monitoring the indoor temperature of our rooms - something about having to pay for my own heat for the first time and having a kid really compells me to check that thermometer 10 times a day. These Egg Room Thermometers change colors accordingly - yellow for a comfortable sleeping temperature, blue for cold, red for hot - so that you can get a quick general reading without turning on the lights. It also doubles as a soft glowing night light so that, if you're like me, you can check in on your sleeping kid at least twice before turning in yourself. Posted by
