Australian designer underwear Aussibum is to men's crotch bulges what the Wonderbra is to women's cleavage. Yes. Using space-age technology, you too can increase the size of your bulge when you're at the beach, at the gym, or even in the comfort of your own home.
It's "all natural," with "no rings, string, padding, or anything." It uses all your "own parts" to make your bulge as large as possible. Sounds good to us.

Payjr: another way to avoid talking to your kids

  It should be perfectly obvious to everyone that the reason there are so many problems in this world is because we're giving our children way too much love and attention. Luckily, technology is keeping up with our need to communicate more indirectly with our children. Enter PayJr. Because for too long we've been treating our kids as family members instead of what they really are: little employees. Now you can keep an online schedule of the chores the kids have to do. You can send details through text messaging, email, or instant messenger. Way more efficient than actually talking to them. Then you can pay them electronically by having the money added to a pre-paid MasterCard, ensuring that you can avoid the personal interaction when settling up.

Now, theoretically this tool could be useful if it was used in conjunction with talking with your kids. But it's hard to imagine that if you do have excellent communications with the children, that you'd need an online tool to keep their chores straight. Unless you're running a sweatshop or have 60-some odd kids there's no way that there are enough chores going on that you need to bring the internet into the equation. But whatever. Everything's online now, why not this?

Underwater Camera reaches 75 feet without housing

 

Well you have to give it to the SeaLife ECOshot, regardless of how good or bad it takes underwater photographs, any camera that can take a direct drop from over six feet has to be a crowd pleaser in our clutzy world. It’s got a sleek design that’s encased in rubber handholds for easy gripping, even with dive gloves on.

Powered by a pair of AA batteries to keep the camera small and light, the EcoShot can reach a maximum depth of seventy five feet without an underwater housing. That makes it great for snorkeling and beginning to intermediate scuba divers who are looking to take pictures of the underwater sights rather than set dive records. And with a 6MP CMOS sensor, it hits the digital camera “sweet spot” which states that six megapixel chips are an ideal balance between megapixels and light sensivitiy. And considering that it can get pretty dark down below six feet, the ability to take in and record as much light as possible – even with a flash is a good thing.

The camera also has an interval meter which can set the camera to shoot pictures automatically anywhere from 5 seconds to five minutes. It comes with a small 14MB of internal memory, and sadly, it can only take 1GB SD cards. And at $230, you’d think a diver could at least slide a 2 Giger in there. But this baby’s strengths are in it’s robustness, not in it’s storage capacity.

The Visible Body Brings Interactive Anatomy to the Web

Those who were in high school and college a few years back will likely remember those transparent plastic scale models of the human body that used to live in science and anatomy classrooms. They were called the "Visible Man" and "Visible Woman," designed to help students learn how the body works. Now, thanks to The Visible Body, those models are online and completely free to use.

The Visible Body was designed for students and medical professionals looking for another tool to add to their information arsenal. The tool is remarkably complete, and after downloading the 3D plug-in and loading the app, you get a completely interactive, 3D view of the human body. You start with the skeletal system, and you can add other systems on top of it, including the circulatory system, the endocrine system, the muscular system, and more. You can click on each to show or hide it, rotate your view of the body in 360-degrees, and zoom in and out.

As you click to add different systems, you can expand the category to pinpoint particular organs or areas of interest. For example, you can open up the nervous system category to drill down into the central or peripheral nervous systems. Inside each of those categories are specific parts of the nervous system that you can add to the 3D model without having your view cluttered by other organs and parts.

You can also search for a specific body part or organ using the search function in the sidebar. If your search term is recognized (I had spotty results with this), the part you're looking for is added to the model and you're zoomed directly in on it. Even when zoomed in, the body's parts and functions are shown in incredible detail.

The Visible Body has some relatively hefty system requirements, so make sure your system is up to the task before even trying to sign up. First of all, the Web app only supports Windows 2000, XP, and Vista, and only works in Internet Explorer. No Mac or Firefox users need apply. That's a huge drawback, but it seems to be a limitation of the Anark 3D interactive plug-in required for the tool to work. The 3D plug-in is very resource intensive, so I wouldn't try doing much else while using Visible Body.

Complaints aside, The Visible Body is incredibly useful, and a lot of fun to browse. The service is currently in beta, and the developers plan to add more features and details in the future. I hope they open up the service to Macs and other browsers, but in the meantime, The Visible Body is a good reason to fire up Internet Explorer.

Search and Replace Specific Formatting (fonts, styles,etc) in Words

 Search and Replace Specific Formatting (fonts, styles,etc) in Microsoft Word

If you've ever worked on a document originally created by somebody else, you'll most likely immediately be frustrated by their horrible choice of fonts and formatting. What you might not realize is that the search and replace functionality in Word allows you to replace more than just text.

You can easily search and replace all bolded or italicized text in a document, for instance. Or you could remove that ugly Heading 2 style they used… what were they thinking using bright red?

Open up the Find and Replace dialog from the menus, or just use the Ctrl+H keyboard shortcut.

Click in the blank Find box, and then you can use the regular keyboard shortcuts to specify specific formatting. For instance, if you wanted to replace all bolded text with regular text, you'd use Ctrl+B in the "Find what" box, or for italics you would use Ctrl+I. You can even use multiple search criteria here.

If you have styles that are more difficult to replace with simple keyboard shortcuts, you can click the "More" button on the lower left-hand side to show a lot more options.

The "Format" dropdown will give you access to select specific formatting options, like fonts or styles. Just make sure that you first click in the "Find what" box before you select an option.

For the "Replace with", you'll need to click in that box first, and then select the options that you want just the same.
