Posted: 02 Sep 2012 05:30 AM PDT Do you think that children these days tend to rely too much on modern day technology to keep them entertained? If you have answered in the affirmative, then surely you are part of the adult group who have asked your kids (or your nephews and nieces) to actually turn off the TV and console, and head towards the great outdoors to play, get some sunshine on their skin and basically explore what the natural world has to offer. Of course, it would help if your garden or backyard had some sort of kiddy props to begin with, and if you do not have any idea at where to begin, the $199.95 Instant Geodesic Dome does seem to shape up to be a decent place to start. To put it in a nutshell, this geodesic dome gains the "instant" tag since it can be assembled within 15 minutes (or less, depending on your engineering proficiency), making it ideal for indoor or outdoor play. Assuming you fix it up good and proper, it offers a durable, safe structure for children to scramble over, under, and through, helping them gain +1 to their agility as they climb and monkey around. Each of the 52 bars are capable of supporting up to 150 lbs. in weight when secured with the included snap-in connectors, meaning small sized moms can join in the fun as well. Thanks to the sturdy PVC plastic construction, the Instant Geodesic Dome is lightweight, and it will not rust, peel, or become too hot or cold to the touch as seasons make their mark.

Posted: 02 Sep 2012 05:00 AM PDT Mosquitoes – love them or loathe them, wait a minute here. Unless you are part of an extremely niche scientific community who loves spending time with mosquitoes because of your research work, I don't think anyone else would love them. In fact, we are armed to the teeth with plenty of anti-mosquito remedies to date, but none of them seem to be a permanent solution to the mosquito question. These tiny bloodsuckers have the awesome ability of sneaking into your home unnoticed, only to keep you awake all through the night with their incessant buzzing, while taking sips of your vitamin-nourished blood before sneaking away to return another night. I was given the InaTrap device to review, and since I live in a tropical country where it is perpetually summer all year round in humid conditions, it is the ideal tool to duke it out against those pesky mosquitoes. The big question is, does it work or not? Do I have a Dungeons & Dragons-style of 16' mosquito cone of silence when the InaTrap device is turned on? Well, before I answer that question, here is a little bit of background information on the kind of technology that you will be getting in exchange for $89.90. For instance, it is definitely a looker, where it resembles more of a high tech lamp than a mosquito trap, and nice to know it does not harm you, your pets, plants, and basically remains as quiet as a church mouse even when it is turned on. Basically, when the InaTrap mosquito trap is turned on, it will get about trying to entice mosquitoes to enter through the opening right under the pseudo-shade, where the whirring fan will suck them into the compartment which is located at the base, and those pesky bloodsuckers won't be flying out to bother you any more after that. What is the deal with the InaTrap that makes it more enticing than your blood? Well, the UV light will turn on to attract mosquitoes while emitting extremely low levels of carbon dioxide to be the bait. Of course, the manual says that this works best when you are not in the room, so you would do well to turn this on in your home whenever you are not around, and hopefully, by the time you return, you would find your fair share of mosquitoes inside. The spinning fan should make short work of the mosquito that goes through it, where you then pull open the tray at the bottom and dispose of the bodies. I personally have captured more than just mosquitoes with the InaTrap, although moths are not predisposed to it, there were other tiny winged insects that were sucked to their doom. So far, the InaTrap, while it managed to trap its fair share of mosquitoes, still did not make my apartment mosquito free even though I have made sure that there are no possible breeding grounds for them. Perhaps it is time to start checkout out that wardrobe of mine that is filled to the brim with old clothes, I am quite sure that a fair number of them literal suckers are waiting, biding their time to fly out while avoiding the fate of their brethren. Bear in mind that you will need to replace the CCFL lighting approximately once every couple of years in order to keep it running at maximum efficiency.
