I like to think that I’m pretty good when it comes to troubleshooting computers. I’ve spent enough of my time solving error code mysteries and translating beep codes to know what’s up. However, when it comes to babies I’ll admit to being practically clueless. When they start crying it could mean any number of things. Sure, if they smell like poo then they probably need changed, past that I’m lost. Well thanks to a breakthrough in infant clothing, you’ll be able to tell if the child is running a fever just by looking at them.

The new Babyglow clothes contain a special ink pigment which are heat-sensitive. The clothes come in pink, blue and pastel green, however, once the baby’s temperature gets above 37c they turn white. Sure, you could probably feel that the baby is a bit warm and take their temperature, but some new parents might not know how warm is too warm, or any other number of factors could come into play. These clothes take out the guesswork and allow parents to rest just a little easier. You will be able to purchase these later this year for around $35 a pack.

If there’s one thing that scares me more than sharks, it’s this: sharks with guns. I’m relieved to report that Armor of America has seen this problem coming leagues away and has developed a bulletproof vest that also, somehow, floats. The ArmourFloat vest uses lightweight hard plate armor that can stop most assault rifle rounds, and includes shotgun shell holders and plenty of pockets for ammo clips. It’s available now in all kinds of colors including, for some reason that I can’t fathom, desert camo.

And in answer to your question, yes, the only reason I’m posting about this is so that I had an excuse to photochop a picture of a shark with a gun.

These electroluminescent glowing tees are pretty common these days. You can get ones that feature everything from a working graphic EQ, to a simulated game of Pong to a backlit whiteboard.

But since there’s a Star Trek film in theaters right now that seems to be pretty popular with the kids (I’ll get around to seeing it at some point) I figured I’d throw up this light-up tee which features the classic Star Trek logo and the Enterprise blasting through the darkness of space. Or maybe it just happens to be a black t-shirt. Either way it’s a good effect, and you can order one from Gadgets.co.uk for about $46.

This clever tee designed by Steven Lefcourt manages to combine two major pop-culture trends into a shirt that doesn’t actually end up looking that geeky. It’s available from supercombo in black or white and small to x-large for about $22. (£14.99)
