Water fights eh? Remember them? A perfectly fun way to muck about in the summer shooting each other with lovely refreshing water and having a good old laugh about it. WRONG. Forget what you think you know about water fights soldier and get ready for some serious aquatic combat! This Water Pistol Vest set contains two target vests and two water pistols (which are pretty darn powerful it has to be said). The difference is though that scoring a direct hit on these vests actually causes the victim to bleed! Well maybe not actually bleed but some clever thingamajig in the vest material means that water shows up in red on the target which as we all know means that you’ve been got. It takes the idea of a standard water fight to the next level as instead of just mercilessly pummelling each other with water the object is now to avoid being hit yourself. The winner is the one who has managed to lay waste to their opponents without getting a single speck on themselves. With pistols as accurate and far-reaching as these that’s an awful lot harder than it sounds. So turn your summer into an all-out offensive manoeuvre with this great excuse to run around shooting your mates and covering them in fake blood. Wonderful.

The Eye Massager does all this by combining three therapies in one superb massager: 1. Massage Therapy – When eyes are strained and tired, massaging the temple and surrounding area helps remove tension by stimulating nerves around the eye, reducing stresses within. Such stimulation improves micro-circulation, activating and regulating the muscle fibres helping to increase resistance to eye diseases. 2. Pinhole Therapy – The eye massager uses a lens with multiple pinholes many focused images form on the retina and a clear natural image is seen. No effort is required from the eye muscles as the only rays entering the eye are already in focus, consequently there is a dramatic relaxing effect. 3. Magnetic Therapy – For hundreds of years wonder and magic have been associated with the mysterious forces exerted by natural magnets. Magnetic devices have been claimed to relieve pain and to have therapeutic value against a large number of diseases and conditions, the most common being the improvement of blood circulation. Although not proved scientifically, many believe that magnetic therapy does have a well-being effect upon the body. With this in mind the eye massager emits a mild Bionorth body facing magnetic field intended to further enhance the blood circulation.

Ichnographia urbis Londinii… (A Plan of the City of London, after the great FIRE, in the Year of Our Lord 1666.)
See Larger Image Here
An extremely scarce 1744 map of London showing Sir Christopher Wren’s plan for reconstructing the city following the 1666 Great Fire of London. In 1666 the Great Fire swept through the old Roman portions of London, laying waste to most of the original walled city. Christopher Wren, a well known architect of the period was quick to respond to the disaster as a opportunity to dramatically redesign and modernize London’s center. Wren having been schooled in Paris envisioned an elaborate classically influenced reconstruction of the city with broad avenues meeting in a series of Piazzas. Despite, or perhaps because of, Wren’s promptitude in producing a plan for a major post-fire reconstruction, his plan exhibits a number of dramatic errors. Wren did not take the city’s topography into account and consequently much of the this plan is unfeasible. Despite claims to the contrary in the document itself, Wren’s plan was never seriously considered by either the King or the Parliament.
Today Wren’s original 1666 plan is lost. This version was drawn in 1744 by the once fashionable engrave P. Fourdrinier, who claims to have replicated exactly a scarce 1724 original owned by the Earl of Pembroke. This map covers London along the north side of the Thames River from Strand Bridge to Great Tower Hill. Shows Wren’s detailed reconstruction plan, along with the regions originally destroyed by the Great Fire. Identifies the proposed locations of parochial churches, markets, piazzas, bridges and warehouses. A vignette in the lower left quadrant depicts Thamesis, the river god for which the Thames River is named. The upper left quadrant bears the image of a phoenix, suggesting that, like the mythical bird, London too would rise from its own ashes and be reborn in fire. The lower quadrants of this plate include the map’s title in both English and Latin as well as a detailed “Explanation of the Plan”.
This plan is highly uncommon and rarely appears outside of institutional collections.

Cartographer: Christopher Wren (October 20, 1632-February 25, 1723)
Christopher Wren was an English architect and geometer active in the later 16th and early 17th century. Wren is considered to be one of the most prolific and highly acclaimed English architects in history. In the late 17th century architecture such as we know it today did not exist, rather it was considered a branch of mathematics and as such was consequently an acceptable hobby for the gentleman of distinction. Wren acquired an interested in architecture as a young man and developed his interest through varied studies at Oxford. Wren career as a architect received a significant boost from the Great London Fire of 1666, which facilitated an almost complete reconstruction of much of the city. Wren is responsible for some 55 churches as well as numerous other significant works. In recognition of his accomplishments Wren was knighted on November 14, 1673. He was also a founding father of the Royal Society. Though sickly as a child, Wren lived to a ripe old age 90. Wren is said to have passed away after taking ill on a trip to London in order admire his greatest masterpiece, St. Pauls Cathedral.
