Automatic Nut Roaster

Posted: 24 Oct 2010 05:15 PM PDT

No, wives and jilted girlfriends should get the idea of the Automatic Nut Roaster out of their heads if their previous husband/partner have had other flings outside of what was supposed to be a monogamous relationship. This isn’t meant to roast any bodily parts (no matter how strong you feel to do so), but will rather be a whole lot more suitable for that lovely and ideal Christmas family setting. After all, it is capable of roasting, stirring, and glazing nuts automatically. Boasting a 1,000-watt integrated heating element, it is capable of producing even heat across the entire cooking surface while reaching temperatures of up to 375ยบ F to roast one cup of nuts in seven minutes. There is an internal paddle to automatically stir nuts to ensure they cook evenly and are thoroughly coated with any seasonings or glazes. The roaster itself comes with a non-stick cooking surface, a durable plastic lid, and stainless steel paddle, where all of them are hand-washable. Don’t like nuts? Make popcorn instead – it can serve up to 6 quarts of delicious popcorn. The Automatic Nut Roaster can be yours in time for the holiday season for $49.95.

Nerf Raider might make you king of the heap

Posted: 24 Oct 2010 05:00 PM PDT

There are some offices these days that are more fun to be in, simply because the higher management decided to let employees destress via impromptu Nerf gun fights. Well, the Nerf Raider will definitely help you prepare for ‘Nerfageddon’, as this £29.99 purchase is capable of rapid firing foam missiles courtesy of its rather large side-mounted drum clip. Capable of holding up to 35 darts at once (which is more than any other Nerf blaster, word!), it is the ideal platform to deliver what others might think to be a seemingly endless barrage of boingy bullets. All you need to do is pump the handle, squeeze the trigger and you’re ready to shower a whole world of foam bullets at the enemy! It also has a tactical rail for attachments and an adjustable stock for comfort, the Raider is one of the more essential weapons to have on your team if Nerf gunfights are a staple in your part of the office.

Zibra tool opens up just about any package

Posted: 24 Oct 2010 04:45 PM PDT



You know how some of your purchases these days (especially electronics) which are small enough to fit in a bag come with a packaging which is nigh impossible to cut open with a regular pair of scissors? Well, Zibra has your best interests at heart in such situations by creating its latest innovation that is touted to rid the world of package wrap rage, in the form of Open It!. This is one highly anticipated package opener which will deliver a five-in-one method that will open everything under the Christmas tree in a jiffy. You can read more about its various functions in the extended post, so do make the jump!

  • Cut It: Long cutting jaws cut quickly through sealed clamshell packaging
  • Snip It: Hardened, precision ground steel blades snip through zip ties and twist ties
  • Slice It: Slices CDs and DVDs and the auto-retract system prevents blade from being exposed when not in use
  • Unscrew It: Removable screwdriver for easy use and convenient storage
  • Pop It: Bottle cap opener is cleverly built into jaws

You know that this coming holiday season will see plenty of presents being passed around, so getting a package opener as reliable as the Open It! isn’t such a bad idea after all. You know what would be ironic? The Open It! coming in an extremely hard to open packaging, but we doubt that Zibra will be that cheeky to its customers. Created to greatly reduce the amount of package opening-related injuries during this frenzied holiday shopping season, the Open It! intends to do its part to reduce the current number of people who visit the hospital as a result of lacerations incurred from packaging – around 300,000 in total.

Sporting a bold green color and features an ergo-design that will sit down well with southpaws, it comes with patented angular jaws keep your hands free from all sharp plastic edges. Retailing for $9.99 a pop, this sounds like a nigh affordable purchase for any home, so head on to your nearest Walmart, Bed Bath & Beyond, Walgreen's, Office Depot, Office Max, Michaels and other retailers nationwide to pick one up.

Balance disorder treated via implantable device

Posted: 24 Oct 2010 04:43 PM PDT



Have you ever heard of Meniere’s disease before? It is an inner ear disorder which affects about one percent of folks living in the US, and is a particularly disabling condition since attacks of vertigo can occur without any prior warning. In order to treat it, ordinary folks are required to lay still for several hours at a time before they can get back on their feet again. Since it strikes like a thief in the night, this ever-present possibility will inevitable cause sufferers to avoid certain activities, situations and perhaps, even careers. Both medication and lifestyle changes will do their bit to alleviate the situation, but it will not solve it completely. Of course, there is always the alternative to go under the knife, but that typically results in depleted hearing and/or balance functions of the affected ear. Good thing for progress though as a team of scientists from the University of Washington Medical Center are currently working on a new cochlear implant on their first human test subject. The main idea? To remove the patient’s symptoms without sacrificing functionality in either ear.

Meniere's disease is yet to be understood in its entirety, although its attacks are widely believed to be caused by the rupture of an inner-ear membrane. This results in fluid leaking out of its vestibular system, which will subsequently throw off the brain's sense of balance. Thanks to the new intended method of treatment, the implant will be surgically placed in a small well created in the skull's temporal bone which is located right behind the patient's ear. A trio of electrodes will extend from it, right into the canals of the inner ear’s bony labyrinth. All patients will have different placement spots since they must be individually recognized via neuronal signal testing. Not only that, the patient also wears a small external processor behind their ear, which will line up directly with the implant.

Whenever the wearer feels an impending attack, all they need to do is activate the processor tosends a signal to the implant, which results in transmitting electrical impulses via the three electrodes. These impulses will override the malfunctions in the inner ear, enabling the patient to maintain balance until the attack passes. Sounds pretty neat! This device was four years in the making, and recently received the nod of approval from the FDA.
