Shanxi Granite Hearth Table

Home improvement ideas are not all that difficult to come by, although sometimes, you might want to get some inspiration or idea from the magazines off the shelf. For those who have a decently sized lawn that has nothing on it, you can opt to spruce it up with the $3,000 Shanxi Granite Hearth Table. Yes, it is rather pricey, but what do you get for that kind of seemingly insane money? After all, do not judge a gizmo or gadget by its cost, heh!

The Shanxi Granite Hearth Table will be different from grouted tile patio tables where the latter are subject to mildew, cracks, and discoloration. This is a cooking hearth table which sports a solid granite top that were cut from the mountains in China’s Shanxi province. Individual handcrafted tabletops are unique, so no two grain patterns or colorations are the same. There is a cutout section in the table center that holds a 23″ diameter stainless steel fire pit with propane tank fitting which is capable of delivering a powerful 40,000 BTUs for cooking at your dining area. This table will hook itself up to a standard 20 lb. propane tank, and sports a set of gas fire logs to create the feel of a wood fire.

Body Heat Mimicking Mosquito Trap

When summer comes, there is nothing quite like spending some time sitting on the patio or balcony if your home happens to have one (or both), watching the sun set, and sipping on a pina colada. Unfortunately, some of us live in a place where there is this pesky insect known as mosquitoes, and getting rid of them can be quite a task. Since we all know that prevention is far better than cure, how about picking up the $599.95 Body Heat Mimicking Mosquito Trap for your home?

This is one mosquito trap that relies on a different kind of “gimmick”, where it is touted to realistically mimic human body heat production in an effort to attract and eliminate mosquitoes across the space of an entire acre. This unit is capable of generating constant heat from the center to mimic the human neck, and there is also intermittent heat on its dome which will trick mosquitoes into thinking the warm spots are human veins, hence doing its bit to draw them closer to the trap. Odorless carbon dioxide is produced using propane to lure these pests, and the inclusion of a blue light, which is a color to which mosquitoes are naturally attracted to, will help enhance its lure.

Talking Hand Strengthener

“Speak to the hand, because the face, it ain’t listening” is a phrase that I am quite sure that many of us have heard of before.

Other than that,it works just like any other hand strengthener as each squeeze of the device’s handgrip would strengthen the extensor muscles in your hands, wrists, and elbows, while helping reduce the painful symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, and tendonitis. Some of the announcements include the force of the current squeeze, the accumulated force of all squeezes, total number of repetitions, and maximum squeeze force (up to 110 lbs.) in a pleasant female voice, with the slew of statistics being shown off on an LCD panel. Of course, sometimes when you need a little peace and quiet, just mute it, and also save on the two AAA batteries that are required to run it.
