Why is it that the Japanese always have the best stuff and now they have smart toilets that give the user a general health check while they are in there doing the business? Personally, it sounds a little off putting but I suppose if it is bad news, you are in the right place!

So what does a smart toilet do then, it weighs, checks temperature, tests urine and takes your blood pressure, it's enough to put you off and wait until you get home! Image being told that you are overweight, got high blood pressure, ragging temperature and to cap it all you are pregnant too!

This looks like a classic Russell Crowe action movie, and adding Elizabeth Banks to the mix only makes it better. I would break my wife out of jail. For sure.

From Apple:

Life seems perfect for John Brennan until his wife, Lara, is arrested for a gruesome murder she says she didn’t commit. Three years into her sentence, John is struggling to hold his family together, raising their son and teaching at college while he pursues every means available to prove her innocence. With the rejection of their final appeal, Lara becomes suicidal and John decides there is only one possible, bearable solution: to break his wife out of prison. Refusing to be deterred by impossible odds or his own inexperience, John devises an elaborate escape plot and plunges into a dangerous and unfamiliar world, ultimately risking everything for the woman he loves.

Director: Paul Haggis
Cast: Russell Crowe, Elizabeth Banks, Liam Neeson, Brian Dennehy, RZA, Moran Atias, Lennie James

Even in the home and office there are often in purities in the air, they can get in if the window is open or every time that somebody opens the door. Most of the time these fairly harmless, but over time they could become harmful and that cannot be a good thing at all.

This purifier plugs into the wall power socket and slowly goes about filter the air within 540 sq ft room, the entire process takes only five hours to completely clear of any impurities that may have crept inside.

Here are the specs and features for the modern styled air purifier:

An independent testing laboratory showed it removed airborne dust, pollen, pet dander, and smoke particles as small as 10 nanometers–100 times smaller than the average bacteria–and it’s effectiveness will not wane over time like traditional air filters. Capable of cleaning an entire 540′ sq. room in five hours, the virtually silent air cleaner produces only 5 db–half the decibel level of normal breathing–and it does not produce any ozone. The collection tube is removable and rinses clean for a lifetime of reliable air filtration without additional cost. Plugs into AC. 26″ H x 7 1/2″ Diam. (4 1/2 lbs.)
