You can never tell when a fire is going to begin – it is just one of those things in life, but this is where being prepared comes in handy. Every home should have a fire escape plan for all the family, in addition to a fire extinguisher as well as smoke detectors. Instead of getting a boring looking smoke detector, why not chic things up with the £34.99 Chick-a-Dee Smoke Detector ? Yes sir, this unique smoke alarm will certainly shed the tags of being boring and ugly, where it resembles a bird on a twig instead

Thanks to a new plan developed by the FCC and CTIA, an organization that represents the wireless communications industry, cell phone customers should soon see an end to “bill shock” — that sinking feeling of dread we experience when reading through a monstrous, completely unexpected wireless bill. The plan is slated to roll out during the next 12 months, and should help prevent consumers from getting hoodwinked by unanticipated service fees and roaming charges. The “ Wireless Consumer Usage Notification Guidelines ,” as the plan is called, is simple: AT&T, Verizon, Sprint and T-Mobile will send free alerts to consumers who are about to incur pricy international roaming charges, or are on the verge of surpassing their monthly limits on voice calls, data use, and text messaging. Under the plan, carriers must provide notifications for at least two of these four areas by this time next year, and must provide notifications for all four areas by October 2013.

I can’t believe I didn’t see this company when I was at CES last January, but Telikin has created computers that were originally made for senior citizens, but could easily be made for any person, young and old. According to their web site, Telikin has two designs. The first is the Telikin touch 18 inch touchscreen computer, and the second is the Telikin Elite, also a touchscreen. Each of them have similar features with an all-in-one design and virus resistant.

A crafty family decided to do a series of portraits while dressed in improvised body-armor from a notional post-zombpocalyptic world. I love this little girl’s zombie-hunting outfit! When your dear significant other asks you for a family portrait that includes Post Apocalypse zombie slaying, well of course you just smile, nod, and say yes! ChainCrafts got lucky, his wife requested exactly that for her birthday. Jumping at the opportunity, he used his crafty skills to create armor for his family from upcycled hubcaps, railroad crossing sign, soda tabs, strips of stainless steel, various bits of sports equipment, jump rings, and aluminum from duct parts
