Chips are generally meant for eating, but this one right here is meant for playing. The Dancing Terra chips jump around, make noise or laugh when you clap at them. The chips bag may come in handy when you’re trying to put your kids off to sleep by terrorizing them through the ‘ghost’ inside the chips, until of course they realize that they’re battery operated. The side effects: Be prepared for a dose of mockery when you open a packet of real chips.

Beds and Pillows, TV and Remote control are two pairs of living room entities that are intertwined and inseparable as the couching time approaches. When I’m not comfortably seated on the remote, its lost in some corner of the couch, till I rummage around the entire place and find it tucked inside a pillow. The pillow has become its absolute resting place, unintentionally (or intentionally if you’re hiding it from your baseball addict brother) The remote control pillows make your job legitimate by providing a special pocket for the remote to be tucked inside and the organic cotton and help pillow comes with an embroidered illustration of a remote.

This is yet another MP3 player. I wonder if hey could ever be tired of manufacturing one. They say this one is special as it is made for workouts. Ofcourse the features remain the same like the other babies in the market. Even an FM tuner is a great extra, since it'll let you tune into the TVs at the gym...and tune out of the sometimes mind-numbing repetition of physical activity. Headphone manufacturers also continue to churn out better and better fitness-friendly sets; namely, sweat-resistant models that offer various design features to ensure the 'phones stay secured to your head during activity.

The markets are flooded with these. It a digital frame in different shape. Indeed a best gift to someone special. The NEC has developed a way to make TFT LCD panels able to feature shapes besides the average square or rectangle. This is nice for those that would enjoy something a bit cuter, like a sweet little heart shape.

This is a tub you would like to relax in when out of swimming pool. Well I think it is a bit awkwardly designed that hinders the comfort level, but a fun element that can be placed besides poolside. Designer Michael L. Wendel’s chair is sculpted at 1/8th scale using Sculpey clay. From there, the model is cut into ¼ inch slices. These slices were scanned, blown up to full scale, and plotted to be used as a template for the full scale model. From there, the templates were adhered to 2 inch pink insulation foam, cut out, and assembled to the full scale form. Countless hours of sanding later, the form is coated in 4 coats of Elmer’s glue to protect the foam from resin. After the glue is dried, the form is sprayed with chopped fiberglass using a chopper gun. Once dried, the fiberglass is sanded down, then coated with Bondo. After sanding the Bondo as smooth as possible, it is painted with high epoxy glossy white paint.

Well its unbearable to listen to Hannah Montana everyday, everytime you switch on to the next channel to avoid her. But this product is quite interesting. Apart for Miley Stuart screeching in your voice every time you tune into the attached speakers. The pillow with a washable diary is nice. Well it’s a bit expensive, but its good for dumb teenagers who think Hannah Montana is a rock star.

One of the major risk factors for heart attacks and strokes is blood pressure, alternatively known as hypertension, which could be curbed through cutting down of salt intake and incorporating exercise regime into day-to-day life. This disorder for most people involves a cocktail of tablets and drugs, which cause several other side effects like tiredness, insomnia, cold hands and feet, dizziness and constipation. But no one ever thought of controlling blood pressure by means of slow breathing and meditation, which eliminate any kind of side effects infused by the tablets and drugs. Resperate is a device that lowers blood pressure by teaching patients to slow their breathing which promises to cut the risk of heart attacks and strokes without the use of drugs. The device starts off by monitoring the number of breaths taken in by a patient per minute. Then it introduces musical notes through the headphones which helps the patient to inhale in one note and exhale in the next, scaling up the length of each note, allowing the patient to breathe slowly. The contrived effect is that the slow breathing relaxes the muscles in blood vessel walls making them more flexible, eventually easing the pressure exerted on them when the heart tries to pump blood round the body.
