Don’t get too excited, if you’re one of the millions of fans of the movie, because the Twilight Watch I’m about to present has nothing to do with the popular movie that drove people crazy, but with an actual twilight.
The device is quite intriguing, as it was designed to remind all of us the miracle which is known under the name of “sunriseâ€. We’re talking about a natural phenomenon that is transposed continuously by the Twilight Watch, as its face changes from light to black and back, each 20 seconds that pass by. If you wonder how such thing is possible, then you should know that the optical effect was turned into reality with the help of two polarized disks that were designed to rotate with the seconds.
The case of the watch measures 36 millimeters (which means 1.42 inches) in diameter, being all made of brushed stainless steel. The watch is provided with “a glove-soft black leather bandâ€. A very important aspect is the fact that the device is resistant to water to a depth of 100 feet (or 100 meters).

The Twilight Watch is available at Think Geek, for a price of no more than $119.99, and can be purchased right away. But, as I said, it won’t remind in any way of the movie, just in case you’re one of its adorers!
Well, if you weren’t afraid by now, then let me tell you should start being afraid, because if you do dare to mess with Mother Nature, it will find a needle for the devil’s skin. To be more precise, it will wake you up precisely in the happiest moments (of your dreams, of course).
However, it might be that some of you would like to be woken up by sounds of nature in those early mornings when you feel like lazing for a little bit more, but you know you just can’t, because there’s a long hard working day ahead of you and you can’t waste your valuable time.

So, this transparent Sphere Alarm Clock is designed to help you open your eyes with sounds of nature. It has a light of different colors (seven, actually), six natural sounds, a clock function (it can display the month, date, hour and minute, and the weekday), a snooze function (for those who have troubles with waking up at a precise hour), a snooze interval that can be adjusted from 1 minute to 1 hour, and temperature detection ranging from 0 to 50 degrees Celsius.
The device is powered by 3 AAA batteries which are not included in the package, measures 100 x 97 x 80 millimeters and weighs 145 grams. It’s available at Gadget4All for $16.00.
People are afraid of getting married, maybe because it’s too much responsibility involved in such a huge step. On the other hand, life is about freedom, and marriage is often perceived like an institution that fences people in. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I strongly believe that humans are made for a free life, and they are tempted to reject every little thing that is meant to make them prisoners.
But we shouldn’t consider marriage to be such an obstacle, even if recent statistics are quite alarming, as we’re told that approximately 47 percent of men and no more than 32 percent of women decide not to get married before their early 30s. And one of the main reasons for such thing to happen is that people are more and more focused on career, rather than on the family aspect.

The Marriage-Hunting Bra (also known as Konkatsu Bra) is a concept lingerie designed by the famous company Triumph International that is meant to help the women who are very skeptic about marriage to surpass their fears. The bra shows the time a woman has left until the day she thinks she’ll tie the knot on a very easy-to-read LED display.
There are a ring holder and pockets that can be used for a pen, for example, and official stamp seal. These will be very useful when the bride will have to fill out the marriage license application. Triumph puts its hopes very up when it comes to the results of the release of this new concept.
To be more precise, the creators of the Marriage-Concept Bra is aimed at encouraging people to get married, as it was inspired by a best-seller that creates sensation these days in Japan called Konkatsu-Jidai (translated as “The Times of Marriage-Huntingâ€), written by Toko Shirakawa. The book talks about a continuously diminished marriage rate in Japan and the obstacles people run into when they’re trying to find a partner for a lifetime.
I’m reading an article about a Darth Vader Alarm Clock and all I can think about is the next question: “Who in earth is Darth Vader?â€. Not to mention the fact that I can’t stop asking myself whether this guy is very important if someone came up with such an idea. I’m rolling my eyes and I’m sure I look like a stupid human being, but I don’t know who Darth Vader is.
But Google does it all, and Wikipedia also. So I found that Darth Vader is, in fact, a character from the so very famous Star Wars movies. Well, it’s understandable: I haven’t seen any of them so there was no chance for me to recognize him.

Anyway, the point is you will all have the chance to have your own alarm clock shaped as a Darth Vader helmet, being introduced in the camera by Sakar. The only thing that will make you realize you have no reasons to be afraid consists of this creature’s eyes. You’ll see that numbers glow in his eyes, which means the time is displayed in the eyes. In addition, there is an integrated AM / FM radio and you can choose one of the three different sound effects that are able to wake you up in the morning.
Even if the alarm clock isn’t to be found on Sakar’s website, but it’s expected to become available in the near future for an amount of no more than $30.
Actually, most expensive laptop ever must be not only Swarovski-studded, but also made of gold, encrusted here and there with expensive diamonds, with the display all made of sapphire crystal, just like we’ve been accustomed by the luxury cell phone manufacturers.
Talking about expensive laptop, here you have a relevant example that might horrify you, so you’d better be careful! Looking at the picture, I surely understand why people are sick and tired of so many gadgets that are aimed at the fairer sex and I couldn’t blame anyone for having such an opinion, which, as a matter of fact, I am sharing with them.

Ok, people are different, which means they like all sorts of things, but this isn’t a justification for the bad taste. And they usually need something luxurious to make them feel different, to make them feel like leaving their mark on the things they use on a regular basis. The Ergo FashionNote mini-notebook is a laptop adorned with approximately 1,444 Swarovski crystals.
The screen is only 8.9 inches, which is a little bit disappointing, but this might give you a hint on how small the laptop is. Unfortunately, the Ergo FashionNote mini-notebooks aren’t available for being purchased for the moment, but it seems that in just a couple of weeks you’ll be able to have one of your own (April 20th is the day you must wait for). The design of the covers is the creation of designer called Sbranchio.
As for the features, the laptop comes with a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, UMTS/HSDPA SIM card slot, with Bluetooth connectivity, Wi-Fi, 2GB DDR2 RAM, 16GB SSD and a webcam. Every model is equipped with the so-called Energy Star Label, which means that the laptop will help you save energy.
