<% rating = 5 %>It's a scary sight, a conventional mattress (top) and a Serta mattress with FireBlocker (bottom), three minutes, 30 seconds after ignition (caused by friction, etc, etc). During tests conducted at the Underwriters Laboratories (UL), the Serta mattresses with FireBlocker smoldered at very low temperatures for 30-minutes, whereas conventional mattresses immediately became engulfed in flames... which is not good... even if you are the one spontaneously combusting. FireBlocker is a fire barrier system made of a blend of natural and synthetic fibers that helps isolate the impact a fire and block its spread. So, the next time you are looking for a new mattress (you know you need a new set!) check out Serta’s 2004 product line that includes FireBlocker.

We've seen the Lamborghini Police Cars, but Dodge is upping the ante in the law enforcement market with a new rear-wheel drive Dodge Magnum police car powered by the legendary HEMI V-8 engine. The 2005 Dodge Magnum SXT model will be available this fall for police special service use. For 2006, Dodge will introduce a police package which will be offered on the Dodge Magnum model. I bet it will even make the thieves not want to out run the cops, so they can get a better look at the car. [via PRNEWSWIRE]

We are bombarded with studies that prove we are getting bigger. The New York Times reported in March that the first national survey of adult size since World War II found men and women all bigger in 240 different measurements "from tip to toe." Manufacturers have even rushed to churn out a huge array of products for our growing population. Everything from scales that go up to 1000 pounds, to super-sized towels and oversized steering wheels are now available. But until Aitan Levy developed The Big John Toilet Seat, nothing had been done to provide comfort for that vital area right between tip and toe that had been crying out for relief -- the BOTTOM. Aitan's background involved high-class design and manufacturing for 5 star hotels and high-end kitchen and bathroom products.

REUTERS -- Don't trust the driver of a fast car. Porsche drivers are less faithful than any other group of car owners, with almost 50 percent of them cheating on their partners, a survey published in German magazine "Men's Car" has revealed. Among German men, Porsche drivers were the least faithful, with 49 percent admitting infidelity, followed by BMW drivers at 46 percent. Among women, Audi drivers were the least reliable, 41 percent admitting to affairs. The most faithful group were owners of Opel-Vauxhall cars, with only 31 percent of male and 28 percent of female drivers in Germany having committed adultery. The survey was carried out by Hamburg-based opinion poll institute Gewis, which questioned 2,253 male and female drivers aged 20 to 50. The results follow similar findings from the same magazine showing that male BMW drivers had the most sex.

If you have ever broken a limb or had surgery you know what it feels like when you can't take a shower until you remove your cast or stitches. The only solution has been to wrap it in a bulky garbage bag. With StayDry there is no longer an excuse to not shower. It is manufactured to accommodate half of the arm and leg and the full arm and leg. It comes in a range of sizes to fit young children as well as adults up to 6' 6" tall and is made of surgical latex that can stretch up to 600 percent without tearing. For the StayDry leg products, the sole features the Non-Skid Grid to prevent slipping. It costs more than a plastic bag, about $29-$39. One thing that I still can't understand is why in the photo, they chose to have a swimmer in just a speedo, swimming by a diver in a full scuba gear... for fun, post a caption about the photo.
