Save Your Booty!!

by danni 10/31/2008 7:12:00 AM

A bike seat that could help restore full circulation to your nether region is now gaining popularity among men and women. The MoonSaddle is a bike seat that cut off the front portion to make it more comfortable and less intrusive on your private parts while riding. It's a crescent-shaped bicycle seat designed to improve your riding comfort and up your sperm count! A big claim from a bicycle seat so let's not get carried away. If you ride often then yes, this may be your problem. If you only ride once or twice a week for 15 minutes or less at a time then NO- this will not solve your sperm count issues! But the research does show that the old bike seats were responsible for some erectile dysfunction among men due to reduced blood flow to the region. And that problem went both for men and women. The new and improved "spermanomically" correct seat is on sale for about $85 at retailers nationwide. So jump on it! No pun intended. Wink

If you have a great invention or an idea you've come accross that you want me to feature e-mail me the info and I'll get on here.

 Have a Happy Halloween!

Purple Tomatoes May Scare Off Cancer!!!

by danni 10/31/2008 7:00:00 AM

Could purple tomatoes really be a threat to cancer!? New research from the journal "Nature Biotechnology" says that genetically engineered purple tomatoes have shown in tests that they can extend the life of cancer-prone mice. The special ingredient that is responsible for the effects is anthocyanins. Which are also found in blackberries and blueberries and they are associated with protection against a broad range of human diseases. Scientists are also testing whether the anthocyanins must be ingested from foods or if it can be taken as a supplement and have the same effects. Probably because maybe not everyone wants to eat purple tomatoes when the red ones look so appetizing. But who knows, eggplants seem to be a big hit and they're definitely purple!

Would you eat purple tomatoes if you thought they would ward off the threat of certain types of cancer? I think I would. These new bioengineered tomatoes are still being tested but stay tuned because they could be on grocery store shelves someday!

WARNING: DON'T CUDDLE THIS PET!

by danni 10/16/2008 7:57:00 AM
If this is the wave of the future I’m sad. This is a pet you definitely don't want to snuggle with, but is infinitely easier to care for. Hmmmm, it’s quite the conundrum. This "Pet Cactus" stands 1.75" tall and can grow up to 4.5". Not really sure why the Pocket Plant would take off except for working professionals with no time, money or energy to care for a real pet but still feel the need to nurture... your guess is as good as mine. This cute little plant requires little water, can be left in scorching heat and direct sunlight (in your car for example) and will be totally fine. It's definitely tougher than any of my previous green-thumb attempts. So- if you're looking for unconditional love with little effort and subsequently little, if any, return. The Pocket Plant should do it! If you have an invention, awesome or not, I'd love to hear about it, or if you want to get your ideas made into a prototype or something sweet try this out.

Sunshine in a jar!

by danni 10/15/2008 9:16:00 AM

A solar cell rechargeable battery inside this basic mason jar transforms it into a super energy efficient LED lamp! It's so easy to use. Simply leave it outside during the day so the battery can charge, and a sensor inside will automatically activate at night to bring the plain jar to life. The jar contains three LED lamps that are powered by those solar powered rechareable batteries. Perfect for camping trips or just a super energy saving tip for use even in the house, much safer than candles, this invention gets two thumbs up from me!

Solar power used to just be about big fields of solar energy cells to channel electricity for homes and business but now solar power is being scaled down for clever uses for the general public. Just one more way you can go green!

Mason jars are water tight and can be left outside in any weather conditions in direct sunlight to get a full charge. The jar uses two AA rechareable batteries, which are replaceable if they ever wear out.

If you have any great green ideas I want to hear about them! Or if you need to get information on how to get your inventions into the maine stream market like this sunshine jar- click here!

Does Radio Hold the Cure for Cancer??

by danni 10/3/2008 9:59:00 AM

Former radio station owner and lifelong inventor, John Kanzius, after discovering he was battling leukemia in the spring of 2002, decided to not only fight for his life, but to fight for everyone that has or may get cancer. His new dream, if accomplished, would be the scientific discovery of the century- to find a cure for cancer. You are probably thinking, as I was, that this guy is crazy. Hundreds of scientists and world renowned researchers have attempted to find a cure for cancer and have been, for all intensive purposes, unsuccessful. Well John, after 5 years and over $1million dollars, built a machine in his garage that has the ability to target cancer cells and heat them enough to kill them. The machine uses radio waves, which generate an electromagnetic field, which if intense enough, can, make the electrons inside a piece of metal move around violently- therefore generating immense heat. How it works is that a specific type of small metal particles are injected into the cancer cells (tumor), then the radio waves are released through a high-voltage system via a pair of antennas just inches apart. The 7 inch copper coils are precisely tuned to resonate at the same frequency. This creates what's called "resonant coupling", which allows the radio waves to be confined to a narrow beam. This allows them to target specific cells in the body. The electromagentic energy chooses to take the easiest path, to the metal injected into the cancer. The small metal particles superheat, killing the tumor and leaving the healthy tissue surrounding it completely intact and unscathed.

To date, the machine has been tested on rabbits and rats. John partnered with research scientists to further test his machine. They injected carbon nanotubes into liver tumors in rabbits and zapped them with John's machine. The initial results were very promising- it killed the tumor and left the rabbits healthy. They also received similar results when they tried testing using gold particles on rodents with cancer. The next step will be human testing which is still a few years off.

Sadly, John is still battling Leukemia, and he is often asked if he's used the device on himself. John's response is, "No. I wrote the patents- I know it won't work without that targeting particle. If it did, I'd be sitting in front of that thing every day," he said.  

So- has the cure for cancer been discovered? Let me know if you think this invention will work or not. Would you try it if you were battling cancer? I want to hear from you on this cool invention, or if you have a great life-saving idea that you want to patent or create a prototype for these guys can make it happen!

Let's Talk Trash

by danni 10/1/2008 9:28:00 AM

Emerging green technology plans will require a worldwide collective effort to not only conserve resources, but to turn what we deem “waste” into “want.” Science is at the doorstep of a whole new way to think about, use, and create energy from what we’ve been calling 'waste' for years. Everyday trash- “municipal solid waste” (MSW) is quickly becoming the new $$ maker. A new technique to create energy involves burning MSW to produce electricity as a byproduct of the incineration process. The EPA estimates that in 1998 17% of the nation’s MSW was burned and generated electricity- 14% in Pennsylvania, 2% in New Jersey and 2% in California. 55% of that waste was put in landfills, and 28% was recovered in recycling programs for reuse. The primary environmental concerns for this method of energy production is ash disposal after the waste is reduced 90%; and the air polluting emissions released during the burn process. Otherwise this is an awesome, innovative way to turn our massive over-filled landfills into cash for the U.S. economy (which is desperately in need of some help).

The other new popular energy source is animal waste. Elephants for example output 200 pounds of waste (poop) daily, which if harnessed would generate 39 kilowatts of electricity. A llama produces 16 pounds of waste and would generate 3 kilowatts of energy. But imagine how much the U.S. population, 200 million plus produces daily? This bioenergy is being used as the basis for developing new technologies, and the research for its worldwide implementation could be an astounding environmental and energy industry breakthrough.

Let’s face facts folks. It’s time to turn our trash into cash.

Sound off! Let me know what you think we should be doing and which new technologies you think will help fuel America through the next century. And, if you have an idea or an invention that you think I should know about, e-mail me (and include pictures) I would love to hear from you!
