Saitek Eclipse Keyboard
I play quite a few games that require me to have low lighting on around me, so I usually turn off the lights. Well then I can't see the keyboard! This keyboard solves the problem. It has variable light settings to illuminate the keys. It's dark enough to play the game, but I can still accurately use the keyboard. Perfection.
It's also very comfortable and easy to use when I am writing quickly or just blogging.
The award-winning design of the Eclipse Keyboard features patented TrueVu key illumination, so you can easily use it in any situation, from day to darkness!
Three lighting levels - off, low, high - vary the illumination beneath the silver keys with laser-cut lettering.
Also designed for ergonomic support and comfort, the keyboard offers a Zero-Slope design and adjustable wrist rest.
A user-friendly Plug’n’Play design with USB connector is provided, so it's ready to use right out of the box.
Compatible with Windows 98, SE, ME, 2000 and XP.
You can get yours at Scientifics.

Galilea Moon Phase Clock
Any other moon phreaks out there? Well if you are one or know one, this would make a great gift. I love mine.
Here is what the website has to say:
Enjoy the beauty of Luna, Earth's only natural satellite, with a sophisticated clock that maps the moon's phases. In addition to the date and time, the Galilea's hemisphere slowly rotates over 29 1/2 days, displaying the progressive phases of the moon. Made in France. Requires AA battery, not included.
OK, that aside, it is COOL! I bought one for myself and then a few more for friends. You can get yours at X-treme-Geek

Fearless Fourteen - Janet Evanovich
The Crime: Armed robbery to the tune of nine million dollars
Dom Rizzi robbed a bank, stashed the money, and did the time. His family couldn’t be more proud. He always was the smart one.
The Cousin: Joe Morelli
Joe Morelli, Dom Rizzi, and Dom’s sister, Loretta, are cousins. Morelli is a cop, Rizzi robs banks, and Loretta is a single mother waiting tables at the firehouse. The all-American family.
The Complications: Murder, kidnapping, destruction of personal property, and acid reflux
Less than a week after Dom’s release from prison, Joe Morelli has shadowy figures breaking into his house and dying in his basement. He’s getting threatening messages, Loretta is kidnapped, and Dom is missing.
The Catastrophe: Moonman
Morelli hires Walter “Mooner” Dunphy, stoner and “inventor” turned crime fighter, to protect his house. Morelli can’t afford a lot on a cop’s salary, and Mooner will work for potatoes.
The Cupcake: Stephanie Plum
Stephanie and Morelli have a long-standing relationship that involves sex, affection, and driving each other nuts. She’s a bond enforcement agent with more luck than talent, and she’s involved in this bank-robbery-gone-bad disaster from day one.
The Crisis: A favor for Ranger
Security expert Carlos Manoso, street name Ranger, has a job for Stephanie that will involve night work. Morelli has his own ideas regarding Stephanie’s evening activities.
The Conclusion: Only the fearless should read Fourteen.
Thrills, chills, and incontinence may result.
Once again, Evanovich delivers a great read. I love love love this series and recommend it to everyone. My friends, ranging from their 20's to their late 60's all love this series. Get your own copy of Fearless Fourteen!

Fujifilm FinePix Z10FD 7.2MP Pink Digital Camera
This is a great little camera to carry around with you. The color in the photo is true to the color I have. Don't worry, there are others. Blue, Green and Orange. If there had been a metallic purple, I'd have gone with that. But I have no complaints about this camera so far and have been annoying the dogs by taking pictures of them non-stop since I got it. Here is where you can get your own Fuji FinePix Camera.
