micro compact home

Horden Cherry Lee Architects’ micro compact home [m-ch] project is a ‘lightweight compact dwelling for one or two people’. Prefabbed off site, the units can be shipped [the website shows it on trucks, and getting air lifted into place] to basically any location, for what they describe as ‘short stay smart living’. They’re already available and being purchased in Europe, forming, for instance, a student village called O₂ and the ‘Tree Village‘ [shown below] is being developed for possible construction.

Tell a Friend!

Did you know that you could tell a friend about myninjaplease by clicking on that lil’ link down yonder below each post that says "tell a friend?" Well duhhh. You can also click the appropriate icon to add us to any of the social bookmarking sites we have listed. If you would like to see more or other features let us know!

Read our RSS and remember, SHARING MEANS CARING, my ninjas!!

[Ed: this would be especially crucial for the post right below]

{update}

Ace Dickerson asked us a question:

1. Ace Dickerson Says:
   November 20th, 2006 at 7:18 pm eTwo questions. Call me stupid, but:
   what is "RSS" ?
   and what are the three little image link buttons above "tell a friend" ?

Well Mr. Dickerson (and I do feel dirty calling you that), I’m glad you asked, you un-saavy ninja. RSS stands for either rich site summary or really simple syndication depending on what ninja you ask. Basically, those links in our sidebar are the links to our RSS feeds. If you use and RSS enabled device (phone, psp, camera, screen saver, browser, umm.. bag of peanuts) then you get a stream from our site of up to date content. That way you dont always have to log in to the site to know what’s going on in the dojo, my son. Thus and therefore, get down on it, my dude!

Now those little goofy little linked pictures see come to us by way of wordpress plugin Notable which allows you to easily submit an article from this site to one of (in our case) three bookmarking sites. A lot of people use these sites to find web content. For instance, if you have a digg.com account you can "digg" one of our articles by just clicking a button? Good deal, right?

I hope that answers your question and thanks for supporting [tag]mnp[/tag], famly.

Enviro-friendly showerhead that kicks ass?

All us ninjas here at MNP place a high priority on being environmentally-friendly, and we love green tech, but sometimes, even we don’t want to be eco-friendly. Case in point - remember those low-flow toilets that would clog all the time? Or the restrictors in showerheads that make your shower nothing more than a trickle?

Well, some pretty cool folks over at Australia’s National Research Agency have designed a showerhead attachment that makes your shower use 30% less water, but still feels like you are under one of those earth-wrecking units. How? When the device is retrofitteed to fill the water droplets with a tiny bubble of air. The result is the shower feels just as wet and just as strong as before, but now uses much less water.

Tekki Niche

This iron container, originally designed about 50 years ago as an ashtray, is handmade by the same technique used to make Japanese iron teapots. The black color is the result of a Japanese laquer glaze called urushi which prevents rust. It may also be used as an incense stand, a container for small articles, a flower vase (a small water container inside required), etc.
