You are a definite man’s man, and you absolutely loathe having to ask for help from different people during your moments of weakness. In fact, you live by the motto that “if you want something done right, then do it yourself”, so much so that you do not even trust the local barber to get your hair cut, preferring instead to do it yourself. If that is the case, then the $59.95 Single Handed Barber might be your cup of tea, as this electric hair trimmer is said to be able to cut evenly in any direction, allowing you to maintain your own closely cropped, clean-cut hairstyle without having to fork out more money for the barber.

In fact, the Single Handed Barber has been touted to be so easy to use as though you are combing your hair. Amazing, isn’t it? Just how is that possible? Well, the circular trimmer’s rotary cutting system and razor-sharp stainless steel blades will cut into your hair as the unit is moved circularly through your head, as it gently accommodates the contours of your pate. There will be a couple of attachments cut hair to four different lengths (1/8″, 1/4″, 3/8″, or 1/2″), and thanks to an ergonomic design, it will be able to fit nicely in the palm of your hand for a more precise control. Hammacher claims the rechargeable battery can deliver a quartet of five-minute hair cuts after a 16-hour charge, or you can plug it directly into the power outlet for extended preening sessions.

Dogs need an adequate amount of fresh water at their disposal at all times, and the thicker its coat, the more water it needs to drink to rehydrate itself. Of course, some of us do not mind letting Lassie lap up water straight from the tap without any boiling or filtering done, but for other folks who intend to go the extra mile for their four legged friends, perhaps the $69.95 Dog Activated Outdoor Fountain is a good idea to invest in for your home.

The Dog Activated Outdoor Fountain is pretty much self-explanatory, where it will dispense water whenever it detects that there is a dog nearby. Just how does it do so? No, there are no invisible leprechauns hanging around in your garden, ready to press a button each time a pooch ambles along, but instead, it relies on a built-in sonar proximity sensor which is capable of detecting a dog’s presence within 3′ and across a 40° angle, where it will then automatically turn on the water, and is smart enough to turn it off when the pet leaves. Thing is, your dog might be a labrador, and we all know how much labradors love water – so they might just hang around the Dog Activated Outdoor Fountain all day long. This particular unit is a snap to install – all you need to do is attach it to a garden spigot, and you’re good to go. There is also an integrated splitter which enables a hose to remain connected to the garden spigot, with its housing is made from weather-resistant hard plastic that will also be able to resist the curious dog’s chewing. A quartet of C batteries are said to deliver up to one year of juice, now how about that?

Most of us who own a notebook would also have an accompanying notebook bag to bring along with us on our travels, where it is rather obvious that one should always separate technological devices from regular clothes and other items that you bring along with you on your travels. After all, it sure as heck makes life a whole lot easier when traveling, especially when you have got all the little details down pat and divided into their different sections, right? The thing is, with so many different brands of notebook bags to choose from, just which particular model does one choose? Booq might have an idea, especially with their experience in rolling out premium laptop bags, backpacks and iPad carrying cases in the past. The notebook bag in question would be the Boa squeeze, which was specially designed to pack your 13-15” Macbook and other essentials in a simple yet luxurious and lightweight design, making this the ideal fit for today’s traveling creative professional.

On the outside, you will find a strong denier nylon exterior alongside water-repellent coating as well as contrasting water-repelling interior with rip-stop lining, where these will definitely do their bit to fortify the Boa squeeze from within and without. There is the densely padded interior laptop compartment which has been lined with soft Nylex in order to keep your gear safe and scratch-free, while a bunch of exterior pockets, including a quick-access iPhone pocket on the top of the bag, aim to deliver easy-access to your most frequently used accessories.

The asking price for the Boa squeeze stands at $129.95 at this point in time, where you will be able to bring your notebook around in comfort, safety and style, without having to compromise on Booq’s intelligent and professional design. After all, backpacks are meant to bring around a whole bunch of stuff, and since the Boa squeeze is lighter than its rivals, it would help put a spring in your step.

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.
