Don’t be so pessimistic. Just because you’ve inherited your Mother’s big ass or your Father’s beer gut doesn’t mean your genes are destined for ruin. Our genetics are actually a lot more beautiful then our outward appearance might suggest.

Anything that can be seen as beautiful can be seen as art.   While everyone’s DNA is made of the same base materials, the patterns and strains are nearly infinite. DNA is much more unique than a fingerprint even. It’s the uniqueness of genes which makes it such an excellent base for artistry, as proven through DNA 11’s DNA Art.

FLIR systems make a range of night vision cameras that can be added to your boat (pictured), car or used in a security context.

FLIR (Forward Looking Infra Red) cameras let you see in total darkness. I can see this being handy in some situations, such as marine navigation - they don’t exactly put street lights on the ocean!

It’s also offered as an aftermarket addon for cars. FLIR systems can see further than conventional headlights so you get more warning of obstacles ahead. It could also offer you an advantage in foggy conditions too - visible and IR systems react differently to fog so you’d get a second view of the road.

You’re looking at around the $4000-$4500 mark fully installed into your car, unless you have a recent high end BMW in which case the factory option is "only" $2500. Pricey, but very neat!

Now, if only somebody would combine this with a head up display to superimpose the night vision picture on the windscreen. That would be pretty cool. BMW, are you listening…?

You often see them, those huge, 30 foot RVs towing a motorboat behind them as they’re off for a vacation of boating. It’s quite a convoy. But what if you could leave the boat at home and still enjoy a cruise on the waterways as well as the highways? Well, now it’s possible. The C.A.M.I.L.C Terra Wind is the world’s first luxury amphibious motorcoach. At a stock length of 42’6” and 8 feet 6 inches wide, the Terra Wind RV is designed around a marine grade fiberglass hull of plywood reinforced fiberglass and marine grade structural members. There’s also a retractible deck for lounging, fishing, swimming and diving.

These are yet another reason why I need a pool in the garden, Motorized Bumper Boats.

Each boat can carry a child or adult and has a top speed of 3mph. Okay they’re not that fast but ramming each other in motorized boat in your own swimming pool is my idea of an ideal Sunday afternoon.

Bumper boats cost $99.95 from Hammacher, I now need to start saving for:

• Bigger house with room for a pool
• A swimming pool
• Two bumper boats,
• Donations welcome .

Before I even begin to tell you why you absolutely need this here product, I know it’s mostly warm these days, but, in some remote, unfortunate places, it’s still wickedly cold. This made for TV gadget is for those people, even though they probably have something like this already. Now that I’ve got your expectations nice and low, let me introduce the Boot and Glove Dryer which will make sure you never have to wear those soggy, soaked boats or gloves again.

So, just because you live in that swanky apartment right smack in the middle of town, you think you’re cool right? Apparently, having boatloads of money does not automatically translate to being the best, as artistic flair and taste are things that even Bill Gates cannot buy. Just take a look around your pad and see if it is actually done up tastefully, or did you just tack on tons of different decorative items without giving second thought to an overall theme? Thankfully, there are some household decorative items that will definitely go along with the flow, and the Cereal Bowl Light is one of them.

The Innovan is like a portable mini-house that can be attached to your vehicle, it is made from lightweight material and designed in a form that it can be slided-on the tray back, this way you have 2 advantages: being able to drag a boat, trailer or anything else you want; and good performance on or off-road areas. This mobile home comes with plenty of features and as the name (innovan) indicates, innovation is the important part. Here some specifications with links to photos:

• 2 beds - image
• 100 liters of storage capacity under each bed - image
• 85 liter fridge/freezer - image
• Small toilet that rolls out from a compartment - image

We wrote about solar powered ventilation for the car a little while ago, now it’s the houses turn with the Solarventi: The Green Dehumidifier.
