Now THAT'S a Knife

The guys Ethan Becker of BK&T and John Benner of TDI put their heads together to create the KA-BAR Becker(Poor Benner couldn't get his name in there? Maybe if he'd had on of these strapped to his side he could have.) Tac Tool. It smashes! It bashes! It prys! It hammers! And, yes, it even cuts – assailants in half

Top This

Jar Tops are the latest and greatest thing to hit food jars since Bandana's Banditos Jalapeno Mustard. Waite ... I don't think I've ever tried that. In fact I'm not sure how it got in my fridge. A set of Jars includes long-handled cap, an oil and vinegar cap, a cocoa shaker(?) cap, a creamer cap, and a sugar shaker cap. You can even buy the from the MoMA store.

Bookmark II

Great idea! I think I'll make my own with a giant rubber band and a sharpie.

Beer Bellty

If I liked the taste of alcohol and/or was an alcoholic(and was sober enough to do so) I'd buy/wear/use this.

Magnets for Dummies

This is brilliant! From what I gather just by looking at the photos, one would use the bottom half of the magnet hold an item in place. You would initially place the magnet in the "off" position. When you want to stick an object to a surface, (1) insert from below the magnet, then (2) press "on". And it sticks -- on the surface! When you want to take it off, flip to the "off" position. Clever! Love the functionality.

Chair Furnace

At first glance, I thought this was a chair; don't make the same mistake. It's an ethenol furnace.
Piet is a chimney-free indoor stove by Fredrik Hyltén-Cavallius that burns ethanol instead of wood. With a brass reflector, this stove gives off no smoke or soot and can be placed wherever convenient. There is a layer of rock wool fire insulation between the reflector and the outer ceramic shell, so Piet can be placed near walls or furniture.
Thanks MoCo Loco!

Student/Ninja Kills Burglar/Idiot

Probably shouldn't lunge at a sword-wielding vigilante, moron. Baltimore Mayor(Sheila Dixon) says that she's "concerned that the students ... will call 911". I'm glad she realizes that ninjas can take care of themselves -- and clean up the streets. Maybe the cops need some ninjas. Read the full story here: baltimoresun.com
