Onya Bags
by sbrothier
We do go on about plastic grocery bags and what a blight they are. Yet how often are we shopping and realize that we did not bring our box/canvas carrier/reuseable bag and guiltily take one or two for our groceries. Onya has a clever solution to the problem: Its bag comes with a pouch and becomes your key chain, so you always have it with you.

Wind Power
by sbrothier
Wind power can be an excellent complement to a solar power system. Here in Colorado, when the sun isn't shining, the wind is usually blowing. Wind power is especially helpful here in the winter to capture both the ferocious and gentle mountain winds during the times of least sunlight and highest power use. In most locations (including here) wind is not suitable as the ONLY source of power--it simply fills in the gaps left by solar power quite nicely.

Couches de poches Swaddlebees
by sbrothier & 1 other
Swaddlebees sont probablement la couche de poche la plus convenable et mince que vous y trouverez jamais. La région entre les jambes a été coupé pour réduire le volume inutile entre les jambes du bébé, pourtant elles laissent d'assez de pièce de mettre d'autant d'insertions comme nécessaire.
