Abstract: A spice mill includes a gear mechanism operable in a first operational state wherein the gear mechanism is coupled to a first grinding mechanism and a second operational state wherein the gear mechanism is coupled to a second grinding mechanism. A selector connected to the gear mechanism is movable between a first position and a second position. In the first position the gear mechanism is operable in the first operational state and in the second position the gear mechanism is operable in the second operational state. A cover part is rotatably mounted to the body and connected to the gear mechanism. Rotation of the cover part in a first direction rotates the first grinding mechanism when the gear mechanism is in the first operational state and rotation of the cover part in the first direction rotates the second grinding mechanism when the gear mechanism is in the second operational state.

Abstract: A water kettle randomly selects lottery numbers as it boils water. The water kettle enables one to randomly select six numbers for a lottery game, such as the “Pick 6 Lotto” game. As heat is applied to the water kettle to boil water for tea, for example, through steam power generated by the boiling water, a set of balls is agitated. Each of the balls in the set has a number painted or otherwise associated with it. As the steam agitates the balls, the balls randomly drop into a tube. At the same time, the noise of the agitating balls alerts a user that the water has boiled. The design and colors of the kettle echo the themes of the lottery. Moreover, the shape of the kettle matches that of a lottery ball.
