whites metal detectors
Will airport security xray ruin my 35 mm film?
I am leaving for Mexico tomorrow and i am going to Logan airport. I was just wondering if putting my black and white 35 mm film through the x-ray machine will effect my film? Or what if i put it in my pocket when i walk through the metal detector? will the detector go off? or can that even hurt my film?
You should definitely not have any film go through checked luggage as, all checked luggage is powerfully x-rayed. The carry-on x-rays are not as powerful, but there is a chance of problems with undeveloped film. Lead bags do help, but some are better than others for protection.
I'm not sure what the rules are in Mexico, but in the US you have the right to request a hand check of your carry-on baggage if you have film. So you should do that on your way there.
On the way back you can certainly ask for a hand check, but I don't know what the rules are there. Your safest bet is to have your film developed there at a reputable photodeveloper. X-ray scanning does not affect developed film.

Kuku Impenetrable Metal Ball Puzzle
$89.99
The Kuku is driving us cuckoo here at ThinkGeek. We keep passing the shiny metal sphere around the office, but nobody can figure out how to open it. Even our smartest monkeys are totally stumped. There just doesn't seem to be a way to get it open! It's quite possibly even harder than the Isis Puzzle, which we also can't solve. If you want the ultimate bragging rights of being smarter than a ThinkGeek monkey, you need to solve the Kuku (or Isis, or both!) and send us pictures so we might sing your praises and laud you as some sort of shiny brushed metal puzzle deity. If you ever do make it to the center of your Kuku, you'll find a token that can be registered online to play the vault game. To open the vault, you must decode a picture clue to identify a 10 digit code. The first person to enter the code correctly is admitted into the vault for five minutes. In those five minutes, you explore the three dimensional room and choose a safety deposit box. In the box could be cash, a gift voucher, various electronic gifts, or even a new high quality puzzle. According to the manufacturer's website, no winners of Kuku have stepped forward to claim their prize - will you be the first?

Metal Gyro USB 3-Ch R/C Helicopter
$39.99
This next generation copter features an all metal body and built in solid state accelerometer (just like the iPhone). What good is a gyro you say? Well young captain, you may recall that all R/C helicopters require trimming to make sure they don't corkscrew or rotate right and left in the air. This Metal Gyro copter uses it's accelerometer to stay locked on whatever direction it's facing. When you rotate right or left in the air it moves incredibly precisely and stops instantly. Watch the video to see the full effect. What this means is that we've just upped the ante for the most controllable small copter ever. In addition you get the added advantage of charging the copter via USB from your computer. Sure, you can still charge from the remote in the standard manner, but why waste batteries when you have an unlimited supply of power from your laptop. If course you get the standard 3-channel copter perks including full control with forward, reverse, up, down and rotate right or left. If you're looking for the latest and greatest small R/C copter look no further. This is it.

Digital WiFi Detector
$49.99
We haven't seen any WiFi sniffing dogs at the airport, but we suspect that somewhere there is a small group of individuals dedicated to training such useful helpers. Until these canines are trained and domesticated we have a device that can assist in "sniffing out" the presence of WiFi. It's a nice unit that offers several improvements on currently available WiFi detectors. Your typical WiFi detector will only show the presence of a signal and relative signal strength - not very helpful. This Digital WiFi Detector has a backlit LCD screen that provides information on signal availability and strength as well as essential network information, including SSID, security status and channel. When multiple networks are present, the LCD will allow you to scroll through information for each network. Also has these great features.
