Another wonderful stumble upon find!

The GE Ecomagination team has come up with something that is pretty cool. While it doesn’t do much other the display something pretty cool, it def gets your attention and with the right graphics, makes you read and find out more about it.

With a web cam and a printer, you can get a “3D” image to appear in front of you!  If you have a web cam and some time to play around, visit the GE Ecomagination Smart Grid site to play around with it.

Oh Yeah, while you are there… learn something about how to save and reduce energy why don’t you!!!

While in Maui for our Honeymoon, I really fell in love with the Polonishian style of architecture!  The open space and breez ways was just awesome. While it was nto realy secure, but there was no need for air conditioning.  This bath tube design really reminds me of the style.

We use to o something like this in college in order to play beer pong.  Only, we actually took the door off the hinges.  How awesome is this?

Over the last couple of years now I have really taking a liking to coffee and HAVE to have at least one cup in the morning.  Some days I require more.  As any avid coffee consumer knows, if you do not drink your coffee at a ‘quick” pace, the coffee can be come room temperature quickly.

Well, some Physicists from Fraunhofer Institute have created the Perfect Coffee Mug.  The mug is able to maintain the beverages exact temperature for 30 minutes.  The Perfect Mug has some pretty cool things going on inside of it.  Inside there’s an aluminum structure which gets filled with PCM, (Phase Change Material).  PCM is a substance used in construction of witer clothing and is capable of storing and releasing heat or cold.

In its original state it is a solid but. Then, when it receives heat, it absorbs it like a sponge liquifying into a gooey wax. As the PCM solidifies it releases the energy at a steady pace, keeping any liquid or room at the perfect temperature. In houses, they achieve this by filling hollow walls with PCM, which absorbs heat from the sun, and then releases it as the atmosphere cools down, keeping the room at a perfect temperature.

Sounds like a lot of science.  Which is all good and neat, just hurry up and MASS PRODUCE IT ASAP please!

Another great flickr find via one of the many Lego creator groups on flickr.com.

Doing a little late night stumbling last night, I can across this great idea for a FULL sized wall Calendar.  I though it was quite unique.  While I don’t know how practical this would be for a daily calendar, it might be great for marketing or repeat events such as birthdays and so forth.  It gives a very quick and LARGE view of what is coming up.  Just might have to “implement” this sometime soon.

I found this while trolling around the internet last night.  A great lay out of a hoe entertainment center.  I prefer to have everything hidden in a back room with minimal controls out front, but to each their own.  The touch screen controls is pretty impressive!

Last night I was going through my apple sites and one of the images on a certain post about tethering your iPhone had this background. Well I could not fins that exacte wall paper any where, but I did find the monitor back ground that used the image.

So a little snip snip and a crop crop there, and presto, the iPhone wall Paper.  If you like it and wish to use it, the image is not mine and I could not find any copyright info on it.

But, you can donwload it by clicking the image so enjoy!
