Description

Just think little fashionistas! This will help you know what coat and shoes to wear to school!

Learn to interpret the weather answers that are blowing in the wind. Once you've set up your own weather station, you can use your high-precision wind-speed meter - and tools that measure temperature, humidity, and other weather indicators - to put together a complete weather outlook.

Build a barometer, measure air pollution, rain, and rain pH, and best of all, have fun learning with the 32-page activities book. Wind-Speed Meter can be hand held, too!

Also includes 2 thermometers, collecting vials, measuring cylinder, pipettes, balloons, lighted storage case (and more). Requires 3 AAA batteries and 2 AA batteries, not included.

For ages 8 and up.

Hot Jet-Ski Action with No Environmental Reaction

I can ski above the water with an electrically charged motor? Sign me up! The Foiljet MR1 provides a speedy water motorcycle experience while supposedly causing minimal wake in the water and relatively no noise when in operation. Mermaids better keep their heads down for this one.

Designers Matt De Bellefeuille and Robert Vandenham bring it to you straight: “An environmentally friendly recreational vehicle powered by a high torque 48 volt electric motor with benefits that include increased safety, efficiency and low noise. A unique and innovative vehicle which utilizes the latest in battery technology to provide unique thrills with no cost to the environment.”

Check out the imagery and additional words below and tell me where the first race is because I want to be there with a big soda to watch the crashes.

Fireworks Car Locator

Blast those blonde moments sky-high....

from Yanko:
Fireworks Help Find Your Car

Every time I get out of a car I yell to my friends the exact floor, side, and column it’s located on. Two hours later we’re all wandering around trying to find it. Constantly clicking the remote keyless entry doesn’t help unless you’re within audible distance. I need something bigger, something I can’t miss. How about fireworks?

The Fireworks Locator system by futurist with a sense of humor Mac Funamizu uses holographic projection technology to set off a display of lights and color you can’t miss. A remote activates an emitter installed on the top of your vehicle. That’s pretty much it. Feasibility aside, I could totally see Honda using this idea in one of their future ads. Imagine hundreds of Hondas creating an unforgettable light show. (via Yanko)
