 But if you need to get more high tech in the backyard, check out this crazy grill. If you tax your kettle and half barrel like I do, this is probably not for you, but it's completely state of the art cookery: TECs Revolutionary New, Flare-Proof, Infra-red Burner System The innovation begins with the burner system you see above. Specifically constructed of 100% stainless steel, TECs new burner is the first ever developed to produce 100% infra-red heat. Although radiant energy is inherently non-uniform, the apertures of this burner are specially configured to distribute heat evenly across the cooking surface. The radiant glass panels, a layer of high temperature glass resting between the burners and the cooking grids, block air flow below the cooking grids that causes flare-ups and vaporizes food drippings to create a smoky vapor that imparts a delicious outdoor grilled flavor. The end result is a flare-proof grilling system that cooks with 100% Infra-red energy, evenly distributes heat across the entire cooking zone - with no hot or cold spots - and infuses food with a great charbroil flavor.

Blu-ray won out to become the high-def disc format of choice, but its competition has never been fiercer. Digital downloads from a variety of online sources are selling on the convenience factor. Upscaling standard DVD players are much cheaper and produce a decent-quality picture. Is there any room left for standalone Blu-ray players?

 You know, I lost my PC last year, and I couldn't get any of the data off because the RAID controller went down with the ship.... well, if I had just backed up to something as easy as an external firewire drive, I probably wouldn't have spent an additional $750 just to recover those files. ---------------------------- NTI Shadow puts an end to losing valuable data, photo, video, and music files that have been modified in between scheduled backups. It maintains real-time, continuous backup of all changed files without burning up valuable system resources. By adding new technology we've expanded your options to include backup to any optical media...including Blu-ray. Now Shadow will back up to virtually any system-attached drive including USB flash, mobile storage devices (micro drives), internal and external hard drives, NAS devices, and more. You can schedule multiple and concurrent backup jobs in their native file format, which means no additional proprietary software is required to restore files. Restoring is literally as easy as drag and drop. With Shadow and external storage of your choice folks simply won't lose a photo, a file, a video, a song again. You can download a free demo version of the software - - to make sure that it's backing up, even when you're not. The demo is FREE, the software is less than $30/US

 Professional chefs have relied on this technology to accurate detect the surface temperature of a pan. The key to consistent results is a consistent technique. Generally, this is almost impossible for most people at home. Ovens vary, cookware varies, etc... This is why Thomas Keller's French Laundry restaurant (top in U.S.) uses a laser thermometer. If a pan needs to be 325F, it can be. The culinary laser themometer uses infrared technology to easily and quickly measure surface temperature without touching the surface. The laser is merely a pointer to assist with aiming. Just aim, pull the trigger and the temperature will be instantly displayed on the LED display. Great for pan temperature, BBQ, checking the performance of your oven or refrigerator, and much more. Plus, there's a cooking temperature reference guide on the side of the thermometer, insuring perfect results every time. As an extra bonus, this version of the Bonjour laser thermometer also has a probe thermometer for measuring internal food temperature. Measures from 0F to 932F. Batteries included. It's about $80 US. Find a lower shipped price? They'll beat it. http://www.chefsresource.com/bonjour-laser-thermometer.html Posted at 09:00AM May 27, 2008 by ko maruyama in Prestige | Comments[0] Samsung develops 256GB solid state drive
