“Humane” Mouse trap

without comments

Having mice in your house or garage is gross. In college we caught over 25 mice in our house in just a few months, it was not cool! On the other hand I do not like animal torture at all, if you are going to kill, make it quick. In college we found the trap that worked quickly and effectively. When I saw the Rentokil RADAR I thought they be be going a little far.

  • Mouse is lured into the mousetrap via smell of food
  • Mickey is then detected by infrared sensors which closes the traps door
  • Cloud of carbon dioxide released, Mickey is asphyxiated in 45 seconds
  • Owner receives text message with the good news

South Korean boys cheering for the soccer team

Amazing, amazingly distracting from the game… amazing. There is not screen, just on color on the front of their shirt, another on the back, and different color pants.

here is another video on YouTube of the same kind of thing

New Bike from Cannondale

with one comment

Check out the new bike from Cannondale. I love Cannondale. So I love to see what innovative things they are doing.

Cannondale designer Chris Dodman shows off the prototype folding bicycle at Eurobike 2007. This is a full size bike with 26″ inche wheels that folds back so the front wheel overlaps the rear wheel. That beefy chainguard you see is also an integrated chainstay and rear wheel rocker, providing all of the support for the rear wheel. The non-drive side is completely empty. This bicycle has SRAM’s iMotion 9 speed hub which has been modified for the unique characteristics of this folder. Like the rear wheel, the front wheel is supported on one side with a one-sided “fork,” kind of like the Lefty fork, except this one is a “Righty.” This enables more compact folding of the bike.

Pee powered batteries

without comments

Hmmm… not much you can say about pee powering your palm pilot.

Forget about rechargeable batteries that are plugged to a nearby electrical outlet – there are now Pee Powered batteries that are being tested in Japan. Dubbed the NoPoPo (Non-Pollution Power) Aqua Batteries, these will come in AA and AAA form factors and will be available exclusively in Japan only. You can use a variety of fluids to charge them, including your pee….
