Nueske's Applewood Smoked
Described by New York Times writer R.W. Apple, Jr. as "the beluga of bacon," this is the world's finest, most succulent smoked bacon. It is produced on the famous Nueske family farm in Wittenberg, Wisconsin. The bacon comes from pork bellies fed a larger-than-normal percentage of barley, resulting in less fat without compromising taste. Unlike common bacon, these thick, rich slices hold their shape. The bacon is slow-smoked over Wisconsin applewood embers, infusing the meat with a hearty, delicious flavor. Most of the bacon fat is rendered naturally to produce more meat per slice than other bacon varieties. A pound of competitor's bacon renders 1/4 to 1/3 of a pound of table serving, but a pound of this bacon produces a table serving of approximately 3/4 of a pound. This three pound package provides between 16 and 20 hearty slices per pound. We regret that this item cannot be shipped to destinations outside the United States. |

Windchaser Products Inc.
Unlike common household fans that sit on the floor and are too low to effectively cool higher areas, this oscillating fan is 4' tall, yet occupies less than a 1' sq. of floor space, for a greater range of cooling height without having to stack boxes, clutter window sills, or block tabletop areas. Traditional fans have to be placed away from walls or other constricting spaces, but this unit can stand in a corner for greater air circulation throughout a room without impeding foot traffic. It has a digital programmable thermostat, three fan speeds for personalized cooling, and it can be set to oscillate through 90 degrees or remain in a fixed position for targeted air flow. A sleep setting automatically lowers fan speed at night to reduce noise levels, and all functions can be controlled by the key panel or the remote control that stores in a slot on the fan column. 48" H x 11" Diam. (3 lbs.) |

ECOSPHERE ASSOCIATES LTD
A self-contained, self-supporting ecological system is permanently sealed within this hand-blown borsilica glass sphere. Its careful balance of air, water, plant and animal life was developed as the result of years of NASA research into self-sustaining, bio-regenerative systems where the equilibrium must be maintained for long periods of time, such as long-term space stations. Inside, tiny shrimp feed on bacteria that metabolize organic waste into nutrients for the algae which, in turn, photosynthesize the oxygen needed for the shrimp and bacteria to survive. The life span of the shrimp is up to three years and that of the algae and bacteria is indefinite. 4-inch diameter. Available only in the Continental U.S. Premium or Express delivery is not available for this item. |

This is the commercial-quality bowling game found in taverns and restaurants that provides six different game challenges for up to four players. The game has a trackball that allows players to "bowl" down the virtual lane depicted on the video screen. Players can select from 21 different ball styles and 8 lb. to 16 lb. ball weights, and the game is programmed with precise physics models to more accurately reflect true lane bowling, including ball spin and direction, and the initial "oiled" section of the lane. The games include half-game regulation 10-pin, full-game regulation 10-pin, three game series regulation 10-pin, 10-pin poker which earns cards for each strike or spare and the best resulting hand wins, trick shot, and blackjack which challenges players to knock down 21 pins out of three racks without going over. Automatic score sheet keeps track of game play, and a slow motion replay allows players to revisit their most (or least) successful shots. The built-in jukebox plays 30 different songs from (and inspired by) the 1950s, including "Ain't That a Shame" by Fats Domino and "Tutti Frutti" by Little Richard. Plugs into AC. 63" H w 31" W x 33" D. (120 lbs.) |

Chicago Gaming
Asteroids®. Centipede®. Missile Command®. Tempest®. One hundred classic games return to life in this full size upright console. Unlike lesser imitations that are 70% the size, this console is the real thing: it uses the original programming that gave arcade games such a distinctive, groundbreaking feel, with all the lights, color, sound, and gaming action you remember. The console is made in the U.S. by the world-renowned Chicago Gaming Company, experts in arcade games for over 30 years, and makers of fine game systems for such names as Williams® and Konami®. This system is the same kind that has been tested in arcades for years, for true arcade-style play and feel. A crisp Wells Gardner 25" monitor (not a computer monitor) doesn't let a single classic visual detail escape the eye, and real arcade controls, including two joysticks, a 3" trackball, and multiple buttons lend a true-to-life feel that will give you the upper hand in challenging one-on-one game play. A host of vintage Atari® and Capcom games (100 in all, including the above-mentioned titles, as well as other classics like Battlezone®, Millipede, Super Breakout, Ghosts 'n Goblins, and Street Fighter II) ensure plenty of challenge variety. An interactive menu (controlled via the joysticks and buttons) lets you customize sound volume, delete high scores, and even add future games as they are made available. The only difference between this unit and the games in the arcades is you don't have to constantly feed it quarters or wait for your turn (authentic coin door does not work-commercial use prohibited), because this one sits right in your own activity room, ready for play whenever you are. Ages 8 and up. Plugs into AC. 68" H x 25 1/2" W x 33 1/4" D. (300 lbs.) ($200) |

Claber Inc
Designed in Italy, this device automatically waters up to 20 plants for up to 40 days without the need for a spigot or power outlet. Up to 20 drippers attach to a 32' PVC hose that runs from the system's reservoir to your plants and then back again; a single dripper placed in each plant takes care of watering, or you can use several drippers in larger plants. A washable polyamide filter removes rust, dirt, and other impurities so drippers won't clog. Four easy-to-set watering programs regulate the 6 1/2 gallon reservoir for 10, 20, 30, or 40 days of operation. The tank is separated from its support base to prevent condensation, and non-slip rubber pads protect table or counter surfaces. Requires one 9-volt battery for one year of use. Silver. 13" H x 14" W x 14" D. (7 1/2 lbs.) |

WAS 199.95 NOW 119.95 Designed by major league baseball scouts Abe Fores and Bo Hughes, this is the shoulder bag that is made of the same durable cowhide leather used by the world-renowned Rawlings company to make professional baseball mitts. The leather is tough enough to survive impact by thousands of fast balls pitched at over 100 m.p.h., yet is buttery-soft for a lightweight yet strong bag that easily holds basic day or overnight travel essentials. The satchel is hand-laced with the same glove lacing tool used to make Rawlings mitts, and each bag has it's own unique patina and will grow softer over time. The bag has a back compartment originally designed to accommodate a radar gun to measure pitch speeds, so it can easily accommodate a digital camera. A front magnetic flap covers four organizational pockets for a cellphone, PDA, glasses, and more. Two zippered panel pockets are large enough to carry maps, files, paperbacks, or newspapers. Nylon lining wipes clean with a damp cloth. Made in the U.S. Specify Tan or Black. 10" H x 14" W x 51/2" D. (2 3/4 lbs.) |

Bose Corp
These exceptionally comfortable headphones offer full-spectrum noise reduction along with renowned Bose audio reproduction-the result of years of research and development. The headphones reduce office noise, the clatter of commuter trains, or the effects of airline engine sound during flight-all while delivering the crisp, true audio for which Bose is famous. Research studies have confirmed a link between noise, human fatigue, and symptoms of stress, proving that noise levels may severely affect the way you feel. The headphones are streamlined for more convenient travel, the earcups fold flat for better portability, and the on/off switch is on the earphone itself for easier activation. Improved noise reduction and audio performance results in lifelike sound and full bass without the artificial enhancement of "bass boost" found on most headphones. Soft ear cushions increase the comfort of wearing the headphones for extended periods, and each ergonomically designed earcup swivels into position to fit the ear. Includes carrying case, 5' extension cord, and adapters for airline audio jacks and home stereo. Requires one AAA battery for 35 hours of use. 7 3/4" H x 6 1/2" W. (7 oz.) |
