Eco-Friendly Water-Powered Clock Blue

 

Save money on batteries!
This clock is powered by water!
The epitome of a greener gadget.
With sustainable design and practical function in mind, this Eco-Friendly clock is actually powered by the very salt and water mixture that occupies 70% of the earth’s surface!
Without the need for batteries, the Eco-Friendly clock keeps perfect time as electrodes harvest energy from the water.
All you have to do to make the clock run is fill its tank up with tap water and depending on the particles that are in your water system you may need to add a small amount of table salt.
We also recommend that you cut a lemon in half and squeeze some lemon juice into the water tank.
This procedure will enhance the power generated by the clock and make it work more efficiently.
You need to change the water in the tank every so often and add water when it evaporates.
The clock has a memory function that remembers the time as you change the water. Save on the cost of buying batteries! Measuring approximately 4” high and 3.5” wide, this playful yet eco-conscious timepiece is truly what’s next in going green.
Do your part and participate in the fight against global warming today!

Change at Tumblr :)

The moment I saw this photo at tumbler, it kept getting into my mind. I find it so simple, yet so deep, so poignant :)

Well, I just remembered that I made a facebook account pala last April 2008. Ngayon ko lang naalala. If not for Eugene seeing my photo there, I wouldn't have remembered na nag-sign up pala ako.. ha ha ha! The silly that I am... Well, okay, you can visit my profile here! I haven't customized it yet. Eh sa na-bo-bore kasi ako dun! Updates are flooding and it bugs me. :)

Anyways, I made my Tumblr account an hour ago. It's a simple blogging tool.

Well, I already "reblogged" some of the images I found in icanread. Statement images, mostly. XD

Enjoy! :)

I Do Not Love You

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,
or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.
I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,
in secret, between the shadow and the soul.

I love you as the plant that never blooms
but carries in itself the light of hidden flowers;
thanks to your love a certain solid fragrance,
risen from the earth, lives darkly in my body.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where.
I love you straightforwardly, without complexities or pride;
so I love you because I know no other way

than this: where I does not exist, nor you,
so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,
so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.

by Pablo Neruda

Ode to the Book

When I close a book

I open life.

I hear

faltering cries

among harbours.

Copper ignots

slide down sand-pits

to Tocopilla.

Night time.

Among the islands

our ocean

throbs with fish,

touches the feet, the thighs,

the chalk ribs

of my country.

The whole of night

clings to its shores, by dawn

it wakes up singing

as if it had excited a guitar.

The ocean's surge is calling.

The wind

calls me

and Rodriguez calls,

and Jose Antonio--

I got a telegram

from the "Mine" Union

and the one I love

(whose name I won't let out)

expects me in Bucalemu.

No book has been able

to wrap me in paper,

to fill me up

with typography,

with heavenly imprints

or was ever able

to bind my eyes,

I come out of books to people orchards

with the hoarse family of my song,

to work the burning metals

or to eat smoked beef

by mountain firesides.

I love adventurous

books,

books of forest or snow,

depth or sky

but hate

the spider book

in which thought

has laid poisonous wires

to trap the juvenile

and circling fly.

Book, let me go.

I won't go clothed

in volumes,

I don't come out

of collected works,

my poems

have not eaten poems--

they devour

exciting happenings,

feed on rough weather,

and dig their food

out of earth and men.

I'm on my way

with dust in my shoes

free of mythology:

send books back to their shelves,

I'm going down into the streets.

I learned about life

from life itself,

love I learned in a single kiss

and could teach no one anything

except that I have lived

with something in common among men,

when fighting with them,

when saying all their say in my song.

Pablo Neruda
