GPS technology on Rugby field


Wow, now why is it that the Uk is doing this for Rugby and American Football is not? American Football, those guys on the line are huge, sucking wind every chance they get. Imagine that on Fox monitoring the stats of a linebacker and the quarterback. The coach could take them out before they blow up and sub when needed. Wow this could completely change sports for the good. Would make it a heck lot more interesting to watch, cause why do they drink liquid every chance they get?

Jumping Light Skipping Rope With Torchlight

img src="http://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2010/01/11/jumping_light1.jpg" width=350"
Carrying exercise over into the night during the summer is hard, how cool would this look at night, better than fire flies.
With all the energy you expend while jumping rope, imagine using some to power a handy torchlight fitted within the skipping rope handles. Torchlight in any form is a good idea, but the cool quotient in this Jump Light comes from the fact that you won’t need any batteries to power the bulb. It simply runs by converting the kinetic energy from your jumps to electric energy. Now if that isn’t motivational enough for you to skip just a bit more!

Rambler Socket Built-in Wall Extension Cord by Meysam Movahedi � Yanko Design


I want to be able to recharge my gadgets and gizmos with this, what a great idea.
Rambler Socket maybe the solution most of us are looking for as far as extension cords are concerned. I mean if you hit “Extension Cord” on YD, for most of the posts you will see readers nitpicking and finding fault with the design. Here’s why Rambler Socket will knock your socks off. It’s this 1.5 meters cord that unfurls from a cavity behind its socket. When you don’t need extensions, it’s neatly tucked away. When you need it, simply pinch the sides and wind it out.

After the deed is done, you simply give the wire a gentle tug (activates a spring mechanism), and it recoils back into place. Ideal for using with electronics like vacuum cleaners, hair driers etc where you don’t need extension cords on a full-time basis.
