Hot pepper spray reverses "permanent"
loss of smell

Hot pepper spray reverses "permanent"
loss of smell 04/12/2004 03:34 PM
The cold remedy Zicam (which I swear by) has been under attack for possibly causing permanent anosmia (loss of the sense of smell). But a new product on the market called sinus Buster, made from capsaicin (the ingredient that makes chili peppers hot) might reverse anosmia when you squirt it up your nose.

"When my husband ordered the sinus buster over the internet I was skeptical. But I said okay I’ll give it a try. As soon as we got it I used it that night and the next day I noticed I could smell certain odors. I couldn't believe it. The first thing I smelled was my daughter coming home after a night of partying, and I could smell cigarette smoke all over her. I had to bring her coat out to the garage because the smoke odor was so strong. Then my daughter told me that’s how she always smells after going out, but I never smelled the smoke before. It's absolutely amazing," Anderson added.

I've always had a pretty bad sense of smell. Maybe I should give this stuff a try. Link

Scorpion 200 Dual Action Stun Gun/Pepper
Spray 06/29/2004 01:39 PM

Like its namesake, the Scorpion 200 is a plastic combination device that shoots a blinding blast of pepper spray at attackers from up to six feet away, then provides a shocking 200,000 volt sting to anyone still making threatening moves. And like the majestic desert creature itself, the Scorpion also takes refillable liquid shot cartridges and can be purchased for around $130, if you can make it through the product copy ("Evil lurks in the darkest places.") without soiling yourself -- another great defense mechanism, let me tell you.

Six months ago, SiCap Industries consisted of a tiny lab in a dark basement in Schenectady, New York. Today SiCap is being recognized as a leader in the "headache and sinus" business. This unlikely "little company that could" has produced one of the most important medical breakthroughs ever known, and according to many medical professionals, they may have stumbled onto a potential cure for chronic headaches and sinus conditions.

Pepper Pad 2

Pepper Pad 2 09/08/2004 10:24 AM

I'm going to have to put the Pepper Pad 2 down as a "Huh, weird," product. A 624MHz Linux-based tablet PDAesque machine with a split QWERTY keyboard? It could be the best interface ever and I don't think anybody would want to buy it. It does, at least, have built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, as well as a healthy 8.4-inch screen, but just look at that thing. It's too huge to throw in your pocket and too ugly to leave sitting around the house.

A Brief Primer on Black Pepper

A Brief Primer on Black Pepper 06/15/2004 10:07 AM
Black pepper is a spice that nearly everybody in the world takes for granted. It has been a culinary staple in the eastern tropics for eons, and indeed for the last several centuries the entire civilised world. The most wealthy of Romans were known to have seasoned their exotic cuisine with liberal amounts of pepper. Black pepper can be found in almost any savory dish as has become custom of fine cookery during the Renaissance, particularly in the arts of French and Italian cooking. But what do you really know about our dear friend, the spice affectionately known as black pepper?

Shanghaied in Portland

Shanghaied in Portland 06/30/2004 10:55 AM
My post about CIncinnati's abandoned subway reminded BB reader Colin Sheridan of Portland's Shanghai tunnels. During the 19th century, this was the real underbelly of the city. Sailors would get drunk, drugged, and dragged through the underground tunnels to the port where they'd be sold to a ship captain as slave labor. By the time the poor saps awoke, they were already at sea. These days, tours are available and, of course, there's even a Shanghai Tunnel bar. Link

Ronco Spray-On Usability

Ronco Spray-On Usability 04/09/2004 03:58 PM
By focusing on Aunt Tillie (the archetypal nontechnical user), Raymond is ignoring the actual depth of the problem. It’s easy to say, The open source community needs to do better, we need to create software Aunt Tillie can use. But they’re so far away from this right now that even an expert like Eric Raymond can’t figure out how to use their software.

The strange thing is that there are many successful open source PHP projects with rich UIs such as phpBB or any of the Nuke variations that are used by non-programmers every day. To ask C hackers - especially those who have no respect for users - to write usable software is perhaps a bit too much. I think PHP coders do this better.
