The Philips R & D team have been busy of late and found a way of weaving LED lights into fabric material, which they are calling photonic textiles. The special material is as soft as conventional fabric and can be used as bedding or even worn.

Over the past 5 years digital cameras have been gaining popularity amongst photography enthusiasts and everyday Joe’s alike. So it is no wonder that digital picture frames have now slowly began to catch on.
With a digital photo frame, you are able to have a number of images available with easy to use flash cards. You can have the images scrolling, or just have your favorite picture set.

Unfortunately the Foodsaver is a genuine “as seen on TV” range of products which generally doesn’t bode well for a quality item, at least over here in the UK (cue vision of Chuck Norris extolling the virtues of an ab-workout machine…) Having said that though this does look quite cool.
Why vaccum pack your food? For one, it lasts longer in the freezer. The second and possibly less obvious reason is that when you dig out a vacuum packed item from the bottom of the freezer it tends to be recognisable. If you’ve ever stared helplessy at 3 month old freezer bag that’s covered in frosty condensation and played the “guess the contents” game then you’ll know what I mean.
The foodsavers are small (counter top sized) devices, come in a range of budgets from just under $100 to about $300 and use their own special bag which I guess is how they get you in the long run.
You can get them from Amazon and no doubt other online stores.
We all at one time or another have tried to find an easy way to rid our home of rats and mice without the poisons and unsightly traps. Well today, there is an answer the Non-Toxic PestChaser® Electronic Rodent Repellers.
This unique PestChaser sends out high frequency ultrasound waves between 32 and 62 kHz to create, with sound, a very hostile environment for rodents. This sound will keep them out of areas that are protected by the PestChaser. The sound can not be heard by humans or most pets and is so much safer than poisons or traps that do not end the return of more mice and rats into your one. Ridding your home of mice and rats with poisons and traps is a never ending saga that will go on and on. But, with the PestChaser, they never even come into the protected areas.
