Where Does Your Phone Come From?

Your phone has probably been to more countries than you have. That’s because it also contains more pieces of the periodic table than you do: a study found that the average smartphone contains about 62 distinct elements out of the 83 stable, non-radioactive elements in the periodic table as opposed to the paltry eleven non-trace elements identifiable in the human body. You don’t get all 62 of those elements from the same place, and some of them are only available in a few places on Earth, meaning that without a global supply, chain not even China, with its disproportionate share of resource production (over 90%… Read more

Woof – spritz! PetSafe training collars use safe spray for pooch behavior modification

NEWS – Constant barking is one thing that all new dog owners dread.  Stopping your pooch from waking you and the neighbors at all hours of the day or night is tough.  PetSafe has a solution with their new training collars.

There are two new models, a bark collar and a remote training collar.  Both fit pups eight pounds and up with up to a 27-inch neck. The collars are USB rechargeable and have a claimed 40-hour battery life.  They use either unscented or citronella scented recyclable refill cartridges, each good for 35 sprays.

The bark collar uses vibration and sound to determine your dog’s specific bark, eliminating false sprays from barks from other nearby dogs. Once your dog’s bark is detected, the collar emits a short burst of spray to discourage unwanted behavior.

The remote training collar has a digital remote trigger that works up to 300 yards away. It can be used for behavior training with three modes – tone, vibration, and spray. The remote is backlit so it can easily be used both day and night.

Both collars have LED status indicators – red for low battery and yellow for low spray. They are available directly from PetSafe now and will be available from pet supply retailers in April 2019. The Spray Bark Collar is $84.95 and the Remote Spray Trainer is $164.95.
