Sleek Looking Portable Indoor/Outdoor Gel Fireplace

There is something special about the warmth provided by a fireplace that a heater can never come close to; sure, a heater can warm a room but a fireplace is about so much more than just heating a room.  Unfortunately, not everyone has a fireplace in their houses/apartments or if they do, the fireplace is in just one room and putting a new one is quite costly.  Fortunately, there are products like the Holly & Martin Hudson Portable Indoor/Outdoor Gel Fireplace that should satisfy the caveman in you.

Periodic TableWare: Chemistry Glasses to Make Drinking a Science

There are very few problems with summer, but one that comes up every year is the sudden tendency for the internet to swell with recipes for low-calorie cocktails and commercials for beer so light you could inflate a balloon with it. It’s all given a manly spin with bacon laden extreme sport references, but let’s face it- no guy really wants to drink any of that crap. Instead of worrying about keeping with the trends and trying the newest raspberry ale or negative 74 calorie beer substitute, why not stick with what you love and switch up your glasses instead? Periodic TableWare looks classy and is full of SCIENCE.

Mia Schmallenbach Meeting Knife

A Puzzling Knife – Deglon Meeting Knife Set

I usually don’t care much for kitchen utensils and have never written about them before, until I saw the Meeting Knives designed by Mia Schmallenbach.  I’m not exactly sure why they’re called Meeting Knives, but maybe it’s because they all “meet” in one place and are stored in the bigger knife?  Or maybe it’s just a name? (I’m leaning more towards just a name).

The  Meeting Knives come in a 4 piece set, including a paring knife, a carving knife, a chef’s knife, and a filleting knife, all neatly

USB Flash Drives – The Wonder Of Portable Apps

A Standard USB Flash Drive With Blue Trim

I like to think of myself as a technology enthusiast. I follow the latest tech trends posted on sites like wired, I buy the latest video cards to run games I’ll never actually get around to playing, and I research the newest Android builds so that I’m well versed in cell phones that I’ll never actually buy. That’s why I find it so humorous that I’ve never owned and made use of a magical little device called a usb flash drive.

I recently  decided that instead of using Dropbox to store and sync my files – a messy business in and of itself – that I would instead start hauling them around on a usb thumb drive. This allows me to keep important business documents away from the prying eyes of the various covert agencies trying to acquire them, and well, it’s just a lot more convenient than having to install Dropbox on every computer I want to use to use my files.
