cup holder for your desk
Smart cup holder for your desk.
The funny thing with this cup holder is that it would work like an absolute charm on the side of our desk here at Smart Stuff HQ. The sad part is that it's apparently sold out. We found it on another page that we browse with some regularity, but when we checked the MoMA (Museum of Modern Art, New York), web store it was nowhere to be found. It's called
DrinKlip an d it was a hefty USD 25:- but that apparently did not stop people from cleaning out the stock in just a few weeks. No we're hoping they'll re-stock soon. [Via]

Tracheotomy tube

Tracheotomy tube on a key ring.
It never hurts to be prepared, and a tracheotomy is no game. But if nothing else helps and a person is dying in front of your eyes, it would be a good thing to be able to help. We know of at least one occasion when a good friend of ours was very near to having his windpipe opened with an ordinary ball point pen from Bic just like the one below.

Kulspetspenna från Bic

Fortunately the salmon bone that had lodged in his windpipe came loose at the last moment, and the pen never had to be used, but it was pretty close. He would have had to live the rest of his life with an interesting scar on his throat and a good story to tell over a beer or two. Instead of the improvised pen (but somewhat more expensive) we can direct your attention to the LifeStat emergency tracheotomy tube, a device that can sit on your key ring and contains everything you need. And yes, it comes with instructions. The LifeStat is USD 125:- in alu/brass, but it's also available in 24k gold plate(!) at USD 250:-. [Via]

How long will your food stay fresh?

How long will your food keep? The answer is on the net.
It's been said that canned food can keep forever if the can is not opened or damaged. Anyone who has spent their military service in the Swedish Army can testify to eating age old but still edible canned foods. Actually we still have a so called "personnel mine" in our possession For those not in the know, that's a small can of Swedish Army liver paste. (It was actually quite tasty on the Army biscuits, but we've not even dared thinking of opening it for the last ten years or so.) If you haven't learned from bitter experience it's kind of hard to know how long food will keep. We have, however, found a site that can help. It's called Still Tasty, and they have information on just about anything you could think of putting in your mouth. A quick browse-through lets us suspect that they've been a bit pessimistic when calculating the times, but better safe than sorry, right? [Via]
