The UFO lamp is not so alien when it perches by your bedside
The Star Wars and ET have managed to stir up our fad for UFO’s and space ships. Of course, these aren’t so much necessary when the fake newspaper reports could do the trick for many of us. It still remains a ‘flight of the imagination’ which you could have in the comfort of your home. Here’s a bedside lamp for $24, shaped like an Unidentified Flying Object, which could lull you off to sleep each night. If you find all UFO-like stuff cool, you might take a fancy for the UFO webcam or the UFO juicer as well.
Shoe cell phone holder is hideous and unnecessary
If you were given a choice to place your cell phone on a decent cell phone stand or a shoe, what would you choose? I reckon, it would be the former for most sane headed people. But there is a company called “Perfect Solutions” that has come up with a Shoe Cell Phone stand, not to mention an absolutely gruesome one, which I have seen on the feet of ‘morally disoriented’ women at the sidewalk. It comes with built-in channel for recharging, is that much of a selling point? Shoe cell phone holder is avilable For $19 at Amazon.

RIBA: The cute and adorable teddy bear robot nurse
As far as men are concerned, nurses equal to the image of hot women. Thank god, I'm not a man, so I can appreciate RIBA, the cute robot nurse. RIBA is short for Robot for Interactive Body Assistance” and it has been created by researchers at Japan’s Institute of Physical and Chemical Research (RIKEN) and Tokai Rubber Industries, Ltd. (TRI). Its main purpose is to assist nurses by lifting patients in and out of their beds and wheelchairs and toilets as well. However, you do have to be under the weight of 61 kilos for this 180 kilos robot to be able to lift you. It's a cute device that comes with long, multi-jointed arms embedded with an array of tactile sensors that help it optimize the lifting and carrying of humans and its body is covered in a soft skin molded from an advanced lightweight urethane foam developed by TRI. This makes sure the patients are comfortable. It's really cool that using visual and audio data from its surroundings, RIBA can identify co-workers, determine the position of those nearby, and respond flexibly to changes in the immediate environment.
Spilling drinks and messy hands no more a problem with RM-Z3SD, Sony’s Drip Proof Universal Remote
As blessed as I'm to live with some of the most amazing people on this planet, they also happen to be the clumsiest. So we are all dropping and spilling things together. This means that we do need a plethora of spill/drip proof objects around the house. You might be only too aware of this situation if you have children running around your home. So for people like me who live with grown up babies or for parents, the RM-PZ3SD, Sony’s latest cute universal drip proof remote is a perfect device. It can sustain greasy hands, spilt milk, sodas and anything else you throw its way. It's a nightmare to host a party and know that people are going to absolutely ruin your remote with their messy hands and drinks! Not anymore though. I like the pink remote, but if you want something that's less feminine and cute, there's white, black or blue to go for.
Bed Made EZ to smooth out all the wrinkles on beds
I'm going to let you in on a secret, I almost fall under the OCD category when it comes to wrinkles, especially wrinkled bed sheets.

Bed Made EZ looks like it's going to provide me some much needed aid however. It inserts without any hassle between box spring and mattress, lifting as it slides in. It has been created to reduce strain to the back, neck, and shoulders associated with the repeated lifting of heavy mattresses, so it's quite perfect for hotels to get for their room service staff and a somewhat delicate housewife! The feature that pulls me to it is that it can be used to tuck in linens. It's available for $30 at ComfortHouse.

Barbie Caf on Huaihai Road M. screams pink and delectable
After having created the Barbie suite in Palms resort, Las Vegas, the next Big Barbie dope they could think of is the opulent Barbie Caf in Huaihai Road M in China. The café rolls out everything right from pink cocktails to delicious Blondie brownies and pink mayo-frosted burgers. I always thought Barbie was candy-cute and ‘eatable’, so if you happen to share the same wicked fantasy as me, then you would definitely take a fancy for the pink Barbie Tini, Fashionista Salad and Shanghai Lynn Taro Gelato. The theme was conceived and designed by Mattel Barbie and David Laris of Laris of fame and the cafe is decked up with black, white and pink tiled zebra-like stripes. Apparently, the designers mimicked the herringbone swimsuit worn by Barbie on her grand debut in 1959.

Little girl cuts her 3 feet long locks for charity
Eight year old Tanhayer Lowe has never gotten a haircut before this resulting in locks that are almost 3 feet long. It kind of reminds me of Rapunzel. Eager to get her locks cut short, she finally convinced her mother that it was for the best. Her mother was in love with the long hair, but finally gave in. Little Tanhayer offered to give her trimmed locks to a charity which makes wigs for young girls who are having cancer treatment. She says, 'I am really happy. I wasn't nervous in the end and I am glad I have it done. I think it looks good and that the money will do a lot of good. It is nice that my hair will go to make a wig for someone. I wanted to raise money for children who aren't as lucky as me and I was looking forward to seeing what I look like with short hair.' Her mother who was reluctant at first is very proud of her daughter now. Tanhayer's long locks cut by a local hair dresser will be sent to the Little Princess Trust, which supports children undergoing chemotherapy treatment. She has raised $1000 for charity.
Butt Cam helps you buy the right pair of jeans
Going shopping for jeans in a pain in the ass, literally! It's so tedious to keep getting opinions if your rear end is being flattered by the pair of jeans you have on. It's annoying for the people who have to give their opinion too. There's a solution to this however. JeansWest has developed a fitting-room video camera that projects the customer's rear view on to a plasma screen in real time. Don't worry, it isn't recorded. So even if your bum does look fat, there will be no records of it! "It evolved from wanting to provide our customers with a specialist service when it comes to finding their perfect pair of jeans," she said. "Even if you're not an expert, you know it's all about how the jeans sit and hug the body", is the official statement from JeansWest spokeswoman Belinda Waller. The Butt Cam is certainly a stellar idea. I hope it hits the stores near here soon.

Beetle looks adorable with a flowery pattern
Maybe I don't dream big, but the Volkswagon Beetle is definitely my dream car. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy to see a photo of this colored Volkswagen Beetle at the auto exhibition of International Beer Festival in Qingdao, east China's Shandong Province, Aug. 25, 2009. The flowers give it a nice feminine touch and white is a simple and elegant base color. I think it's a gorgeous car and hopefully someday I can cruise around in it.
