Every time you order a cone of ice cream, you always hope that whoever scooped it out knows what they’re doing. If the perfect balance is not there, you’re going to be looking at a giant mess toppling over as soon as you get it. Even at home, making a sundae for yourself can be risky business with a regular scoop, as you can project ice cream all over the place if you’re not careful. There’s always running it under…

Table Tennis is taken extremely seriously as a sport. I mean, it’s actually part of the Olympics, so there is definitely a degree of physical exertion it takes to play this game. However, if you just want some friends over, and enjoy playing the game casually, it’s hard to get more than two to play what with all the swinging and running around. That’s why the Quad Table Tennis set is such a great option for gatherings.

The art of writing seems to be disappearing as time goes on. By writing, I mean things like penmanship. These days we spend more time on the computer typing emails and status updates than we do with a pencil, pen or any other writing implement. Although, very now and then we like to write a letter to that relative who lives far, far away and won’t have anything to do with technology. Sure, you could use a regular old mechanical…

During the last few months, and especially in recent weeks there has been a lot of talk about SOPA and PIPA. Thankfully these bills, which had the potential to destroy the open internet as we know it, have been shelved. Of course, that doesn’t mean that they won’t be brought up again at a later time. What’s sad is that when you look behind these proposed pieces of legislature, you find little more than a group of lobbyists funded by…

If you’ve ever found yourself to be trapped in the wilderness, you know that making a fire is going to be essential to your survival. However, it’s a little difficult to actually get a fire going.

Everyone has had a use for a bucket at least once. Whether it’s for watering the plants, cleaning, or bailing out the basement which seems to keep flooding, there seems to be many a use for this simple tool. The only cumbersome thing about this particular tool is that it is rather large, and somewhat awkward to stow away when it’s not in use. This is why the Pack-Away Collapsible bucket is such a welcome relief.

We are definitely in an age of technology. Hundreds of tablets, Smartphones, and other high-tech devices are available to the general public. Being as bulky as they are, paper products are looking to become things of the past. However, a lot of important documents are still on the good old fashioned wood pulp, and if we want filing to be easy, it’s best to keep everything categorized and in order. That’s quite possibly why the iConvert iPad Scanner could come…

Sometimes our muscles get tired, so we go and get a massage. However, if you have ever experienced chin, neck, or facial muscle pain, you’ve probably discovered that there aren’t many people who are going to know how to properly massage your face. I can’t seem to tell if this is a serious product or not, but the Rhythm Slim Chin Muscle Exercise Beauty Anti-Aging Face Neck Jaw Pain Gadget (yes, that’s the real name) looks as if it is…

Those of us with good hearing often take things like watching videos for granted. Thankfully most movies and TV shows have the option for Closed Captioning, which translates the dialogue to on-screen text. However, this doesn’t always apply to videos watched online.

When eating fresh vegetables, you must know that those leafy greens came from outdoors. This isn’t a big deal, because that’s where most, if not all plant life thrives. However, being outside and situated in the dirt, there’s a good chance that bugs of all sorts have been having a field day on anything from your peppers to your leaves of lettuce. While it’s not problematic for your body to digest these bugs, some people can’t stand the thought of…

We are all met with the problem of pulling the wrong cord at a bad time. It’s not done on purpose, but shutting off someone’s game mid boss-battle, plunging a room into darkness by yanking the plug on a lamp, and unplugging a computer when an unsaved draft of a final paper is just sitting there can be extremely aggravating. These are annoying situations, but thankfully they can be saved by better cord organization.

Do you ever get the feeling that you were born in the wrong time? Maybe you feel like you’d have fared better as a gunslinger in the old West, or perhaps you could have been a valiant knight at Camelot. But what about those people who think they were born millions of years too late? Well if you ever thought that you should have been alive in the Cretaceous period, riding a T-Rex, then you can be comforted to know…

How many times have you walked out to your car in a parking lot, or up to the door of your home and had the sudden fear that someone is there too, watching you? Obviously, the first response you have is to get where you’re going as fast as possible. This will take away some of that feeling of being vulnerable, but opening the lock to that safe haven now feels like it’s going to take forever. Outside is dark,…

They say that you can’t judge a book by its cover, but that metaphor applies to all sorts of things. Take shirts, for instance. You might glance at the polo above, and think that it’s nothing more than an ordinary shirt. However, you would be far from correct. This shirt can stop bullets.
