Luxuriating
Bear taking a break after our morning walk on the nice dog bed the hotel provided. He has TWO nice beds in the room.

Dog Friendly Hotel Monaco
They delivered dog amenities that included this nice bed, bowls, a rope toy AND an all-natural dog biscuit. Peanut butter flavored!
Giant Tree
Welcome to the Great Northwest! Bear looks especially small next to the Redwood. And yes, he did pee on it.
Bear's Impersonation
This is Bear's impersonation of luggage, c'mon quit it Bear you're not fooling anyone! Heee.
Road stop at the Avenue of the Giants
Mike and Bear took a little break by a river while we were in the Avenue of the Giants area. That area was the old 101 highway that ran through some pretty huge redwood trees. Bear went straight for the water and wanted to walk in it. Bear looks so happy walking.

Bear's First Hotel Stay
Bear's Big Shrimpy even matched the bedding at the Quality Inn at Medford. He was great at his first night! He started to bark a little bit when someone was walking outside the room but Mike calmed him down. Good Bear!
PY, MM, and Bear Grab Some Grub
Yup, we ran out of time trying to find a dog friendly eating establishment on the way so we resorted to the BK Lounge. Bear ate his meal in a parking lot and then waited in the car for us to eat this delicious meal.

PY, MM, and Bear go to Portland
My sister and her bf are taking a road trip to Portland from San Fran, where they live now. Hopefully she'll remember to send me pics along the way!
Here's a pic of Beary Bear chilaxin' in the back of the Mini in his Big Shrimpy bed.

Pivot Power Creative Outlet
Now this is something that I would definitely get. Such a cool concept.
Power strips never want to budge, they just stay stick straight. Well thankfully Quirky Products is offering a new solution. This one will be able to move and conform to any shape that pleases you. It’ll make stashing it into small spaces a whole lot easier than the straight strips. You can even just put it in a zig-zag shape for silly decorative reasons.
Being a Quirky product you get to feel more like you’re a part of the process. It shows you just how many units of the bunch have been sold and how much money is going to each of the inventors and contributers involved in the making of this odd little power strip. These are currently up for pre-sale for $23 through Quirky.

White iPhone 4: early DIY edition, with a touch of black
Ewww, it's ugly....
Sorry, we couldn't wait -- having spent 11 hours on the streets waiting for the iPhone 4, it's only natural to give our precious new toy some extra special care. With the help of iFixit's teardown guide, we decided to take the plunge with our steaming hot Chinese delivery -- a white front cover (with a shiny proximity sensor area above the earpiece), a white back cover (with 'XXXXX' marked as the model number, ergo a prototype), and a Retina Display unit. Alas, there weren't any white buttons in stock at the time, but let's pretend this black-and-white combo is the new cool. Read on to find out how the surgery went.
P.S. -- We've had many readers asking where we got the parts, but the link's already in the post. Knowing some Chinese helps, too.

Swing Clock hypnotizes guests
This is kind of a cool, I would get it for my apartment, as soon as I get one... lol.
If you ever wanted a clock capable of stopping your guests in their tracks, then this is definitely the ticket. Just seeing the clock out of the corner of my eye while I type is enough to make me just a little bit dizzy. Sure, it probably won’t put them in a trance, but it’ll at least keep your evenings interesting. I’d just advise not putting this above the TV or anything else that you tend to look at for long periods though.
This eye catching clock offers quiet and smooth operation and can used anywhere you like. If you happen to hold some kind of job position with power it’d be fun to put it directly above your head. Then you can hypnotize all of your employees or at the very least put them in a little bit of a daze. You can purchase the clock through Think Geek for $19.99.

Acoustic Immersion Pod
It seems awkward for me to just sit there and listen to music without doing something else. Music is usually something I turn on when I have to clean or do some other tedious activity. It's a cool thing none the less.... :)
Want to get the best out of your music? If you’re seriously considering upgrading your home audio system with money being no object, how about the Acoustic Immersion Pod from Hammacher? This uniqe pod will immerse a listener in an acoustically optimized chamber, where it offers an enveloping audio experience with its robust six-speaker surround sound system. Inside, you will find it lined with open-cell acoustic foam, similar material used in recording studios which will deflect, disperse, and absorb sound waves, helping create a personal sound environment which will not annoy those nearby especially if you’re a huge fan of manufactured pop music living in a household who loves classical tunes. The Acoustic Immersion Pod offers a frequency response of 20 Hz-20 kHz for a full range of sound ideal for movies, sporting events, music, or games. You can choose from a Red shell with red foam or Black with gray foam, where either color will make your bank account $3,000 lighter.04 June 2010
William Li: Can we eat to starve cancer?
My pops sent me the link to this video on cancer. It kind of makes you understand your body a little better and why these things happen. I never thought at my age I would know so many who lost their battle with this disease.
Alarm Clock Tea Maker
I'm thinking I would buy this....
This has to be the strangest combination gadget ever and yet I could see it becoming very handy. Instead of waking up to an obnoxious beep, you could wake up to that beep noise and quickly recover with a nice hot cup of tea. Of course maybe you should keep away from the chamomile, it’s probably best not to do anything that might help you fall back to sleep.
If you like instant coffee instead of tea, it can do that as well. Should you be a tea fan though it’ll require 2 of your favorite tea bags and your own cup and saucer set. You just put either your mix or tea bags into the teapot the night before and fill up the Teasmade with cold water. A few minutes before the alarm it’ll boil the water and then the alarm will go off after the water is finished. You can purchase it for £59.99 or about $88 through MenKind.
