Ipod Cases

If you have an iPod, then you can be sure that you also already have many of the accessories geared for an iPod. These include such things as iPod cases, covers, screen protectors, car kits, FM transmitters, and even iPod socks.

No, these aren’t the type of socks that you can wear, but they are instead socks for your iPod to go into. They come in different colors and are normally available in packs of six socks or so. They are cute and they can be useful, but they are no way a good substitute for iPod cases.

Whereas the iPod socks will protect your iPod to some extent (it protects the screen and can keep your iPod from getting dirty), they do not give the same protection to your iPod that iPod cases do. However, not all iPod cases are the same, so if you’re thinking of getting a case to protect your iPod, you might first want to check whether it does the job it’s supposed to.

If you are interested then, you will find that there are many different types of cases available to buy, and they come in the same different sizes that the iPods come in as well. This is because one shoe, or in this case, iPod cases, won’t fit them all. Since the iPod also comes in a number of different sizes, the iPod cases are also manufactured to come in those specific sizes.

So you can’t get a case for an iPod shuffle and expect it to fit your iPod mini or even your iPod nano. One size most definitely does not fit all. If you wanted to though, you could invest in a case which was slightly larger than your iPod size, and this way when you throw in your old iPod for a newer generation iPod, you can be certain that of all the iPod cases that you have, this one will fit your new one as well!

iPod cases can also come in a variety of different materials, ranging from leather iPod cases to hard cover iPod cases to silicone type iPod cases. New iPod armbands also have a casing to place your iPod in, instead of a clip to clip it on. The best use for these types of iPod cases however, is for people who are constantly on the go and who love to use their iPod to workout with.

Alessi Tea Kettle

Alessi Tea Kettle - If you know your kitchenware and dining utensils, then you are probably familiar with the name “Alessi.” An Italian family, the first Alessi was called Giovanni of Luzzogno, who was among those who went to Germany in order to learn the trade of pewter-making. One of his descendants was also called Giovanni and he became the founder of what is now literally a household name – Alessi.

Known for their quality and well-done work, many products sold under the Alessi name won acclaim for their workmanship and perfect finish. They are quite simply beautiful pieces of metallurgical work as though molded from poetic design.

While the Alessi company manufacturers a range of products, among their specialties, under the “Alessi” brand are kitchenware and dining utensils, such as kitchen knives, biscuit boxes, containers, silver objects, pots and pans, and of course, Alessi tea kettles.

Mami Alessi Tea Kettle

Designed by Stefano Giovannoni, the Mami Alessi tea kettle is an oval casserole with lid and plain, brushed aluminum finish. The kettle represents hard work, both from a technical and production standpoint. Its 14-liter oval body requires complex and expensive moulds, and yet its sinuous shape harkens back to the feminine, maternal code present in all Alessi Tea Kettle of the “Mami” project.

9093 Alessi Tea Kettle

The Alessi tea kettles are known as products made by Italians. As such, the misconception is that they are tea kettles made by Italians for Italians. The Alessi company sought to change that in the 80s and 90s by introducing the 9093 Alessi Tea Kettle. As the first product by an American designer included in the catalogue of Alessi tea kettles, the 9093 kettle makes its mark with its playful design style. In fact, this funky design of the 9093 paved the way for more fun and playful designs in tea kettles in the eighties, making it one of the most recognizable icons of the Eighties.

Pito Alessi Tea Kettle

“Pito” means “whistle.” Thus, the Pito Alessi Tea Kettle is actually a whistling kettle but its bizarre design separates it from all other whistling tea kettles out there. The Pito is done in steel mirror polished with handle and cap. The whistle is made with mahogany wood for more “melodic” whistling sound once the water starts to boil.

Mama-O Alessi Tea Kettle

Another Alessi tea kettle under the “Mami” project, the Mama-O kettle has the characteristic oval design of all “Mami” works and the unique and inspired design of all Alessi products. Produced in 1992, the Mama-O is a kettle in steel mirror polished with handle, caps and melodic whistle.


There are plenty more tea kettles produced under the Alessi brand name. With their unique and inspired designs that highlight the sinuous beauty of metal as well as showcase the metallurgical skills that are in the Alessi blood, the Alessi tea kettles are the embodiment of the fusion of aesthetic design and beautiful form.

Home Heating Oil Prices...

Winter as many people in the northern countries know is a time for very cold weather. At this time of the year people who live in cold states and countries will increase the use of oil to heat their homes. As a result of this you can expect to see an increase in home heating oil prices. This price rise is also dictated by the supply and demand equation.

The more people need heating oil, the higher price they will need to pay. This is because the demand is sometimes more than the supply countries can meet at this time of the year. This point however is not something that makes the consumer happy as they are on the receiving end of the price hike.

So what can you do to control your home heating oil prices? There is no clear answer though many companies and people are thinking about ways to alleviate this problem. One way in which you could control the rising cost of heating fuel is to make sure that your home is well insulated.

Try using another type of heat source until the price range for home heating oil becomes more stable. You could even try switching to another home oil supply company. These however are just options which are available to you.

As you have no way of controlling the home heating oil prices you will need to take some type of action before you lose control of your monthly budget during the winter months. First step you should look into is that of the insulation.

Find the best way of insulating the exterior of your house and also the interior of the house. Once you have fully insulated and double glazed your home, the heat that you use in the day time will become trapped in the house. You can also use wood burning fires to provide heat for the various rooms in your home.

These alternatives can be used in conjunction with that of the current home heating oil which you have been using. These procedures together with that of your usual heating fuel will help to keep to home heating oil prices at an acceptable level.

On the face of it there is nothing that you can do about the home heating oil prices. Closer inspection of your home however will reveal some great ways to halve your heating bill in the winter. With a little luck you will have enough fuel left for a really cold day.

World Of Warcraft Clans

To play World of Warcraft takes skill and patience. But as you go up the level ladder, you will find that it also sometimes takes more people than just you or your one or two friends to complete a quest. This is where the World of Warcraft clans come into play.

World of Warcraft clans, or guilds as they are also known, are groups of people who get together for some reason or other, mostly because you do have certain advantages in having a large number of people by your side if ever you need them.

There’s also the little fact that if you’re part of one of the World of Warcraft clans you always have the ability to ask your guildmates any questions about the game to help you through it.

To become part of any of the World of Warcraft clans you have two options available to you. You can either, form a guild of your own, or you can ask to join an already existing guild.

If it’s the former you will find that there are a few things that you will need to do before you can form your own guild. These are listed below.

To form World of Warcraft clans you will need to first find an NPC (Non-Playable Character) Guildmaster who can give you a guild charter. You will then need to add a minimum of 10 players to this charter, including yourself, and then return the charter to the same Guildmaster you received it from.

After you complete this process to creating your very first of World of Warcraft clans, you can then go about the business of finding a suitable name for your clan. You might find that you need to go through quite a few before you will be able to find one that you like.

With over 8 million players worldwide most of the names you think of for your guild are probably already in use! Your World of Warcraft clans name also needs to be something that is not offensive otherwise it can be renamed and/ or your clan disbanded.

After going through all of that you can then go about the business of creating a clan tabard. This can only be done by approaching a guild creation NPC who can help you to purchase and create your tabard.

You will then need to put down a further 10 gold pieces in order to unlock the tabard. With World of Warcraft clans you also have the option of using private chat channels to be able to speak with your guild members privately.

To join World of Warcraft clans which are already formed you will need to receive an invitation, or you can put in a request to join that clan. And if you find that you don’t like that particular guild you can always leave it and look for another one to join.
