Playpump channels the energy of children for fresh water
I’ve always told my wife that the ratio of energy between children and adults is completely disproportionate. It’s like parents need twice as much energy than they already have to deal with half the energy their children already possess. That might sound confusing to some readers, but if you have children, you probably have noticed how easily they can wear you out.
Fortunately, there are ways to channel the energy of children into something that can help their future. This is what the Playpump is designed to do. This merry-go-round is connected to pumps, and when children spin it, they are able to tap into the fresh water below.

Cooper Cooler Chills Cans, Quickly
It is New Year’s Eve, and you’re probably going to want to drink some cold beverages tonight. If there is one thing I can’t stand, it’s when you go to reach for a cold one and find nothing but warm cans. “Oh, why didn’t I take the time to put the cans in the fridge!”
This situation should never occur with modern-day technology. After all, we have microwave ovens that can make things hot in a short amount of time, but what we need is something that can make things cold, quickly. This is exactly what the Cooper Cooler Rapid Beverage Chiller is designed for.
All the user has to do is fill the Cooper Chiller’s compartment with ice and water and put the can in. The machine then does the work of spinning the can for about sixty seconds, which will cool it down to 43 or 34 degrees Fahrenheit.

Water Bottles made from Paper
It’s good that more people are drinking bottled water these days, but what isn’t good is that there are many plastic bottles that often do not get recycled. Even the plastic bottles that get recycled are not 100% renewable.
Fortunately, Brandimage has created the 360 Bottle. I’m assuming it is called the 360 because it is 100 percent recyclable. How is that possible? Because the Brandimage 360 is made of paper.
Granted, the 360 Bottle doesn’t have the clear aesthetic of most water bottles, but I think we all need to sacrifice a lot of plastic to Save the Earth. It certainly is an idea whose time has come, and it has already received an IDEA (International Design Excellence Award) for this concept.

Photo Identification Ignition Interlock device
Smart Start, Inc. from Irving has recently rolled out the new Photo Identification Ignition Interlock device that could potentially help save lives on the road. What does it do exactly? Well, this device uses patented technology which remembers photographs of the interlock user and associating it with an ignition interlock device. This device is smart enough to know who is actually taking the breath test, and is almost 100% foolproof since it works on each and every test, including attempted tests. Just to get a better idea of how secure and effective it is, Texas Judges have required 250 offenders to install the Photo-ID interlock device as an additional sanction on the SSI 20/20 Interlock device since September 1st this year.

Guinness 250th anniversary marked at Irish pub

There is nothing quite like a pint of Guinness after a hard day’s labor, and it is not surprising to see that this dark beer retain its flavor a few centuries after Arthur Guinness brewed his perfect blend with little or no change over time. If you happen to love all things Guinness, take note that Neiman Marcus’ Fantasy Gifts section is offering an Irish Pub sporting Irish artifacts for $250,000, ready to be installed in your home much to the chagrin of the missus. This tap system will offer a year’s supply of Guinness draught, but don’t you go holding parties every weekend or you will find yourself running dry within a couple of months. For 250 grand, you can also gain access to first-class accommodations during your trip to witness the pub in mid-construction.

Beer on a Stick
When I first heard of Beer on a Stick, I thought it was some sort of alcohol infused ice lolly. Boy, was I wrong – this is meant to be a cup holder instead, purportedly helping keep the beer cold since your hands won’t be holding the mug. I thought that was what the mug handle was for anyways?
It’s an injected-molded polystyrene 3 piece cup holder. Our intuitive design makes it easy to assemble. Our low order minimums make it easy for you to try Beer on a Stick at your next event! We are sure you’ll share our enthusiasm for this new product. Sit back and enjoy one of your favorite beverages using the Beer on a Stick cup holder and we’re sure you’ll agree that this item is truly unique and fun.
Well, there is nothing quite as manly as making a toast using a frosty mug that you hold in your hand, and not some pansy-looking device like this. I’m not sure who the target market is, but it would be interesting to see just how many people or corporations pick this up for their next dinner bash.
