An egg timer is placed (off-center) on a centrifuge. By varying the speed of the motor, you can control the duration of the timer. To enhance visibility, the timer medium (which could be either solid or liquid) is made out of a fluorescent material, and the centrifuge has an integrated black light.

SAN FRANCISCO (CN) - A group of press and open government groups in California are backing a court transparency bill recently introduced by state Senator Leland Yee requiring that court administrators give the public and news reporters prompt access to newly filed public documents.
The bill, now pending in the state Senate, seeks to remedy a steady deterioration in press access to California's trial courts. It is backed by the California Newspaper Publishers Association, Courthouse News Service, the First Amendment Coalition and Californians Aware.
"Delays in public access have unfortunately become epidemic," said Yee from San Francisco. "SB 326 will help rekindle some light on the actions of courts and lawsuits that greatly affect the public."

The Issue of Homework Use a timer. A stove timer or egg timer set for predetermined intervals can act as a nice incentive and aid for focusing on work. For a younger child who has a total of 30 minutes of homework to do, you might set the timer for 10 minutes. |

I bought a timer today to help me with my writing. I use the Pomodoro Technique and always wanted a manual timer rather than using an app on my phone. Ideally I would have liked one in the shape of a tomato (as pomodoro is Italian for tomato) but I had to settle for an egg shape.
