Dyson launches ‘world’s first’ smart robot vacuum with live cameras to map your house (and it even puts itself away)

Dyson today announced its first robotic vacuum cleaner, after 16 years of research and £28 million of investment.
The Dyson 360 Eye will cost in the region of £750 when it goes on sale in Britain next summer.
The robot uses a panoramic camera lens on top of the machine to map its way around the house, moving on caterpillar tracks and cleaning each room before going back to its docking station.

Slow cooking is a year-round activity. From meatballs and hearty stews in the fall and winter to lighter fare more appropriate to spring and summer, a big vessel of goodness is always welcome at the table. Of course, there is no law saying that you can’t mix it up every now and then; a deep, rich, rib-sticking stew could be just the thing for some on a hot summer day, and of course, chili is a favorite in any season. But when it comes to mixing it up, it’s not just what’s inside the slow cooker that matters.
The Hamilton Beach six-quart Wrap and Serve Slow Cooker (Model: 33760; MSRP: $39.99) features the ability to have its design changed up any time. It ships with four distinct wraps of two pieces each (for front and back of the slow cooker) that can be swapped out, so the small appliance can fit in on the countertop at any time of the year. In addition to the included decorative wraps, seasonal and holiday wraps will be available separately.
Kitchens not only come in all shapes and sizes, but colors, too. It’s no coincidence that so many appliances come in stainless steel, white, or black; those are easy to match with any decor. Those that appreciate a splash of color in the kitchen now have the ability to match the appliance to the walls — certainly easier than the other way around!

Slackers Slacklining & Ziplining is all the rage! Get out there!
What is Slacklining?
Slacklining is a practice in balance that typically uses 1 inch nylon webbing tensioned between two anchor points. Slacklining is distinct from tightrope walking in that the line is not held rigidly taut (although it is still under some tension); it is instead dynamic, stretching and bouncing like a long and narrow trampoline. The line’s tension can be adjusted to suit the user and different types of webbing can be used to achieve a variety of feats. The line itself is flat, due to the nature of webbing, thus keeping the slacker’s footing from rolling as would be the case with an ordinary rope. The dynamic nature of the line allows for impressive tricks and stunts.

What is Ziplining?
A zip-line (also known as a flying fox, foefie slide, zip wire, aerial runway, aerial ropeslide or tyrolean crossing consists of a pulley suspended on a cable mounted on an incline. It is designed to enable a user propelled by gravity to travel from the top to the bottom of the inclined cable, usually made of stainless steel, by holding on or attaching to the freely moving pulley. Zip-lines come in many forms, most often used as a means of entertainment. They may be short and low, intended for child’s play and found on some playgrounds. Longer and higher rides are often used as a means of accessing remote areas, such as a rainforest canopy. Zip-line tours are becoming popular vacation activities, found at outdoor adventure camps or upscale resorts, where they may be an element on a larger challenge or ropes course.
