Pretty cool looking bottle opener. Though being a Bears fan, it holds a little something extra for me. Here's the details:
Whether you're having a hopping party or just enjoying a brew for two, this wild wall-mounted bottle opener is sure to come in handy. Affixed on the wall of your den next to a few potted plants and some wood-paneled speakers, this mottled red-brown and black, cast iron bear will feel right at home. Thanks to its awesome appearance and practical purpose, this item will prove to be a v-ursa-tile addition to your decor.
You can grab one of these for for $14 over at the ModCloth site HERE.

The new Lotus Evora S has a 3.5-liter V6 that's been sourced from Toyota that pumps out 345 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque.
The engine will push the car from 0-60 in 4.8 seconds with a top speed of 172 miles per hour. Not overly fantastic, but it has some neat options.
It has a button that changes it to a sport option, that let's you control the throttle response, an exhaust bypass valve, increase the rev limiter, and change the stability control. Though I'm not sure why you would ever really turn that off, but it's an option.
You can check out more information and pictures of the car over at Autoblog HERE.

Interesting device. Here's a few details:
Charcoal Companion Steak Station 4-Probe Steak Thermometer is the perfect tool to help you keep track of up to four different steaks at once. Its easy to use color coated probe system allows the griller to keep track of different desired degrees of doneness in up to four steaks. Temperatures range from 115 to 170 F.
This would be pretty useful for a cookout, though you might need to get two of them. At only $22.50 though, that wouldn't be too costly.
You can grab one over at Amazon.com HERE.

This is a pretty basic looking watch, though some might call it a clean look also. This is one of those watches that I just couldn't see spending the money on, but if you like this style, it's not bad at all. Here's a few details about it:
Xetum’s Tyndall Swiss automatic timepiece blends modern aesthetics with instrument-style functionality. Based around an elaboree-grade ETA 2895 Swiss automatic watch movement, the Tyndall seamlessly integrates features such as 24H indicators and a small second subdial into Xetum’s signature lugless case.
The watch costs $1,395.00, and you can check it out HERE.

This is strictly a concept, so there's not a whole lot of detail about how it would actually work. It is a cool looking idea, and here's a little bit about it from the designer:
This is my bachelor thesis in Industrial Design which I have finished this month. Basically it is the transformation of a Piaggio APE 50 tricycle into a small one man camper. Corresponding to my field of study particular attention is paid to the design of the vehicle.

I like this idea. It's a disposable flask that holds 7.5 ounces of whatever you want to put in it. The bonus is that it is actually reusable too, so you don't have to just chuck it in the trash when your done. Finally, it's freezable, and has a plastic twist off cap.
Each flask costs $5.50 (not including shipping) so if you do chuck it, it's not too bad.
You can grab one at the Urban Outfitters site HERE.
