Review: Testing Sanyo's Eneloop Rechargeable Battery
I've been working have less waste coming out of the house and so I was trying got find a rechargeable battery that would work well. I found the Sanyo Eneloop that comes charged out of the box and stays charged much longer than the current competition. The pack I purchased includes a charger,AA, AAA batteries. It also includes C and D adapter in which the AA batteries are inserted. I don't think it would last as long as a true C or D, but it could be useful in a pinch. StefanV says they store even better in colder temps like a fridge or freezer, and because of their long energy storage qualities they can work well for long term devices like remote controls and clocks. LT approved.

Here's a little refresher for the non committals among us. Some kinda sweet art for your car. Maybe you want a different look or maybe you want to cover that unsightly tangle with the parking garage. If so, here is the light. Follow it.

SuperSmoker - The alternative cigarette.
It's a microchip driven cigarette, sign me up! hahaha

Watch as the Swedish chef explains it here.

* SuperSmoker is an alternative cigarette. It looks like a real cigarette, tastes like a real cigarette and smokes like a real cigarette. It comes with an exchangeable cigarette filter.
* SuperSmoker contains no tobacco.

Einstein vs. Religion

Einstein: Religion

"In the letter, dated January 3 1954, he wrote: 'The word god is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weakness, the Bible a collection of honourable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish.

'No interpretation no matter how subtle can (for me) change this...'"

Just click through and give them your email and they'll send you a link to choose what kind of download you want, from mp3 to WAV. I'm listening to it right now and I would've paid for it. In fact I'm going to go and buy the Ghost (ambient) album right now.

Toyota FJ Cruiser Special Edition
I finally found a Landcruiser to match my Tacoma.

"Now, we've created the Trail Teams Special Edition FJ Cruiser. This unique FJ takes charge of the trail while sporting an exclusive Iceberg White exterior, black bumpers and side mirrors, a locking rear differential, the praised A-TRAC traction control system, plus legendary Bilstein� shock absorbers. And to make it all official, you'll find a TRD exhaust system, matte black TRD alloy wheels and a distinctive TRD shift knob. Happy trails."

Nice!

Project CUB/EZ90
I'm looking for a cheep fix for my Hypermotard addiction and this Honda Cub EZ90 from the 90's keeps popping up. It's just a fun trail bike with plastics to make it extra future cheesy, but this guy made it even better. If you find one for cheap, buy it for me and I'll get you back.

I am going to have at least one of these chair. Aluminum smelting does use a significant amount of energy, but these chairs are relatively green (according to them).

"Made from 80% recycled aluminum (40% post-consumer, 40% post-industrial)."

Besides, you can't argue with good design.

- Plugs directly into MAC + PC
- Plug-and-play, no need for software installation
- Works with all VoIP services (Skype, iChat, GoogleTalk, Vonage, Yahoo, etc.)
- Phone can plug directly into USB*ADAPTOR � ideal for use with laptop when travelling or in a WiFi zone
- Adaptors are included for compatibility with the majority of mobile/cell phones
- Reduces exposure to radiation from mobile/cell phones by around 95%
- Button answers and ends calls on most mobile/cell phones
- Handset Cord Length 1.5 metres

It doesn't hurt that the white ones are 40% off. Yes, it's a bit cheese ball, but that works for me too.

WTF!?!

Anti-ecstasy/meth antibodies
I might be missing the point, but why?

"Researchers applied for a patent on antibodies that bind to methamphetamine-like compounds such as Ecstasy to quickly remove the drug from a user's bloodstream."

So they can create antibodies for drugs that don't have to be taken , but they can't figure out how to cure diabetes, a disease where the victim must take drugs to live. Hmmmm I wonder who's side their on? (that was a rhetorical question)
