Motion Sensing Faucet

This is a new motion sensing faucet for home use. Most of us have probably used a motion sensing faucet in business or public washrooms by now, and are aware of their use in fighting germ transfer. Such a faucet would be just as useful at home. Here is some information from the manufacturers' site:

"The Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports that hand washing is one of the "most important means of preventing the spread of infection." It is the first line of defense for infectious diseases. In fact, after using a restroom, a single hand can have a bacteria population of 200 million. It takes just seconds for hands to become re-contaminated after washing - by touching dirty faucets.

That's why you have seen more and more automatic faucets in airports, public restrooms, and restaurants. However, automatic faucets cost over $250.00 and the installation is expensive and not easy.

Now it is affordable and easy for you to have something better!

Introducing the EZ Faucet^TM...
Just mount it to any existing faucet and the faucet will turn into an Automatic Touch-Free Faucet System instantly!

Guaranteed to fit all commercial and residential kitchen, bathroom, lavatory, restroom faucets and more."

The faucet costs $58.00. amd can be ordered here.

Voodoo Knife Holder

This is the Voodoo Knife Holder. I love it. I wish it came in other colors, though, I would love to have a blue one. This is for sale in the UK. Here is some information from the site:

"Thankfully there's nothing supernatural about the Voodoo Knife Display, even though it is one of the most amusingly macabre kitchen accessories we've ever seen. Designed by Raffaele Iannello the Voodoo Knife Display is a slice above other knife blocks and it's truly cutting-edge in terms of originality and design.

Crafted in blood red ABS plastic and depicting a Morph-like human form, the garishly grisly Voodoo has five strategically-positioned slots in which to place five quality knives, which are also included."

Pac Man Guitar

The Pac Man Guitar ($5600). It is playable, and the headstock blinks. A variable-speed knob is located on the eye to synchronise the blinker to the beat. Other features include a two-octave maple neck, double black-bound body made of basswood and finished in yellow cellulose lacquer, twelve blinking light bulbs nestled beneath translucent white acrylic on the headstock, ebony fretboard, three large round mother-of-pearl fretboard markers, traditional vintage-style tremolo bridge, two single-coil pickups with yellow covers, geared banjo tuners, and a single control each for volume and tone. I would like to hear this. Wonder if it sounds as good as it looks?
