One of the inconveniences of modern times would be the lack of living space for the average person simply because nobody makes new land anymore – unless you are reclaiming it, of course, which is “cheating”. Not only that, property prices do not seem to get lower each year, but on average, they tend to hold and go north – unless there is a really bad recession, of course. Having said that, not everyone is able to afford a home with a swimming pool, so this is where the $1,400 Swimmer’s Treadmill comes in handy.
Such a swimming pool is basically the translation of a regular treadmill, except that you will be swimming laps in a stationary position. Sounds like some sort of sorcery, but actually, this 65′ square pool is small enough to be set up in garages, backyards, and even basements. A harness will wrap around your waist, as long as it is no smaller than 22″ and you do not have love handles that send the measuring tape more than 42″. A flexible elastic tether will also be part of the set up that suspends swimmers in the water, delivering different levels of resistance. For example, stronger strokes and kicks will yield additional resistance. Even better news is this – there is no need for any special tools, plumbing, or electrical work to get it installed, where all you need to do is fill up the 4.5-feet high pool with 1,500 gallons of fresh, chlorinated, or saltwater. It is about time you start burning those fats accumulated during the holiday season, of course, to get in shape for Valentine’s Day.




































We have seen a Doxie in action a couple of years ago, but as with most good things in life, an update to the current model is something that makes perfect sense if it were to remain relevant in the market. Having said that, there is a new Doxie model making its rounds – one which is capable of scanning just about anywhere you are without the need for a computer, following by sending that particular scanned image or text to devices as well as the cloud – sans pesky cables.
Everyone wants to be young – just take a look at all of the beauty products that claim that they can shave off years from one’s face, not to mention the wonders of modern plastic surgery. Well, here is something from Hammacher that might just interest you – the $399.95 Aesthetician’s Skin Rejuvenator. Relying on the same kind of therapy light that is used by aestheticians in order to diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and enlarged pores, this is the stuff that NASA dabbles with, so it had better work! Sporting two dozen LEDs which emit four pulsating wavelengths of infrared light in order to stimulate the production of collagen and cell growth, what you get in theory would be smoother, younger-looking skin.
