			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>When I was a kid, I often had small cuts and wounds on my knees whenever I stumble and fall down on the ground. The pain and agony are quickly relieved by the application of the good&#8217;ol Band-aid. My personal favorite were the brightly colored type especially the blue one.</p>
<p>Unfortunately though, there were times that my wounds were too long or too wide to be sufficiently covered by the plaster. I&#8217;m sure you&#8217;ve had the same problem too.</p>
<p>Designers Miyeon Kim &#038; Hoyoung Lee had come up with an interesting design to deal with this problem. Introducing their &#8220;<a href="http://www.yankodesign.com/2009/11/27/customized-band-aid/">Long &#038; short plaster</a>&#8221; that comes in a dispenser that looks and works like your average tape dispenser.</p>
<p><center><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZRNO7Xx_H0c&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZRNO7Xx_H0c&#038;color1=0xb1b1b1&#038;color2=0xcfcfcf&#038;hl=en_US&#038;feature=player_embedded&#038;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></center></p>
<p>Pretty neat if you ask me. Though I just remembered one thing, long cuts rarely form on a straight line. So that leaves out the idea of putting on one long strip of plaster. But hey, kudos to the designers. What do you guys think?</p>
<p>PS. </p>
<p>Would we see feminine pads dispensed in a similar manner and device soon? <img src='http://turbo1.jrocas.com.ph/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
