Fellow humans, pay heed: We are nearing the Singularity long promised by futurist Ray Kurzweilthe day when technology exceeds human capability and elevates existence to a hyper-efficient state that may or may not have room for mere mortals.

Witness: the iRobot Looj 330 Robotic Gutter Cleaner.

Set on two wee tank treads and sporting a rotating set of blades and brushes, the Looj is a simple contraption. Set it in your gutter, turn it on, and it will churn through all those dead leaves, gunk and squirrel droppings that humans, in more barbaric times, would have been expected to dig out with theirgasphands. Granted, you still have to climb up a ladder and point a remote control at it, but now you can hold a cup of coffee or stare into space while doing so.

According to the Home Depot websitethe Looj is an online-only productthis innovation is either a stunning leap forward, or a complete let-down. From the reviews: It was great! Ive long been a fan of robotics, and this task is great for one!; I knew going in that it was a gamble on whether or not it would work..and it didnt. Not even close.

Like the future, the Looj is uncertainand at $300, it is a gamble indeed. But we wont get to the Singularity without lazy people willing to shell out hard-earned cash to facilitate further laziness. Ask yourself: What would Ray Kurzweil do?

(WDEF) Gutter cleaning isn't glamorous, but it's one of the most important jobs on any fall to-do list. Angie Hicks of Angie's List said, "Your gutters should not be ignored because leaves will gather there which will lead to mold as well as bugs, even ice damming in the winter. And if you're like some people, you might actually get a garden growing in your gutters which can be pretty embarrassing. So, taking care of them can lead to better health of your home, especially your roof." Whether you do it yourself or hire a pro, don't neglect the downspouts when cleaning. Elden Foltz works as a handyman. He said, "You also want to make sure that all of your gutters are actually nailed in properly and look at your gutter boards and make sure that they are sealed." Once your gutters are clear, turn your attention to sealing drafts around windows and doors. Walk through your home with a lit candle or stick of incense to see where cold air is seeping in. Foltz added, "You can't take caulking and put caulking over top of it because all it's going to do is peel and break off. And it's not going to provide a good seal for that house." Finally, Angie's List says you should focus on your lawn. Angie Hicks of Angie's List said, "Many people think this time of the year, 'Oh, I'm done with the lawn. I don't even want to mow anymore.' But the treatments you give your lawn, the fertilizing, this time of the year is the most important fertilizing you'll have. So, you if you're looking to have a great lawn next spring, don't skip out on the fall lawn care." If you're not comfortable fertilizing your own lawn, consider hiring a professional lawn care company. Expect to pay about $60 per application.

Angie's List Report: Fall Chores You Shouldn't Ignore

After Dr. Craig Spencer fell ill with Ebola, two businesses he visited shut down temporarily, for cleaning. The experience of one of these businesses, The Gutter bowling alley, shows the disease can be hard to avoid, and expensive to respond to.

Biorecovery Corporation, which cleaned The Gutter on Friday night, estimated the cost at $10,000 to $25,000, according to Todd Powers, owner of The Gutter. Powers said that Biorecovery and his insurance broker are talking to his insurer, the Philadelphia Insurance Companies, and he is hopeful his policy will cover some part of his expenses.

But the Insurance Information Institute says most business insurance policies dont offer much help when it comes to infectious diseases.

Business interruption policies generally only cover weather and other events that cause physical damage to the business premises.

Liability insurance often excludes communicable illness.

In general, insurers are reluctant to pay for cleanup jobs that have not been ordered by the government. The Gutter was not under decontamination orders, but Powers felt he had little choice: his customers and workers expected it.

In one area, insurance does offer protection:almost all businesses are required to carry Workers' Compensation insurance. And if someone becomes sick in the workplace as happened to a nurse in Texas the cost of their treatment will be covered.

(FROM ANGIE'S LIST) - Gutter cleaning isn't glamorous, but it's one of the most important jobs on any fall to-do list.

Angie Hicks from Angie's List says, "Your gutters should not be ignored because leaves will gather there which will lead to mold as well as bugs, even ice damming in the winter.

Once your gutters are clear, turn your attention to sealing drafts around windows and doors. Walk through your home with a lit candle or stick of incense to see where cold air is seeping in.

"If you don't seal the windows what's going to happen is a lot of energy is going to be dispensed out and you're going to lose money."

When sealing a window, make sure the area is free from dust and old paint or caulk.

"You can't take caulking and put caulking over top of it because all it's going to do is peel and break off. And it's not going to provide a good seal for that house," says Foltz.

Three Fall chores you should never ignore

On Saturday at noon, Williamsburg bowling alley The Gutter re-opened after an Ebola scare forced its closure last Thursday morning. Gutter owner Todd Powers and Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams shook hands and held an informal press conference at the alley, before Adams himself bowled two frames.

"Brooklynites should feel self-assured and relaxed to know that, number one, this disease is not something you catch like a common cold," Adams said.

The eight-lane alley underwent an extensive disinfectant cleaning on Friday after Ebola patient Dr. Craig Spencer visited and bowled at on Wednesday, Oct. 22nd. It still smelled lightly of bleach as Adams reassured reporters that there was nothing to fearnot only at The Gutter, but across Brooklyn and all of New York City.

"People have a right to be cautious and concerned," Adams said, "but that fear should not stymie them to go on with their lives." The Borough President praised Mayor Bill de Blasio's organizing efforts since Spencer's Ebola case was identified Thursday, and stressed that the risk of the virus spreading to others was extremely low, if not non-existent.

Spencer, a member of Doctors Without Borders who had been working to treat Ebola victims in Guinea, visited The Gutter for roughly three hours last Wednesday night (you can see the full timeline of his movements here). The next morning, with symptoms of a fever and fatigue, Spencer was rushed to Bellevue Hospital where he tested positive for the deadly virus and was placed in isolated intensive care.

Adams wasn't The Gutter's only patron for long. Rafiq Ali Ladhani, of South Williamsburg, stopped at the bowling alley's bar at 12:30 p.m., ordering a beer and challenging Adams to a game of pool. A grinning Adams accepted, and the two swapped stories of their lives in Brooklyn between friendly barbs. "It's one of the things I've learned in the 13 years I've lived here: New Yorkers are really resilient," Ladhani said.

"You're just not going to get Ebola from this," Ladhani added, gesturing at the bar and booths before taking a long sip of his beer.

The Gutter's management received an all-clear from city Health Department inspectors Thursday, but hired Bio Recovery Corp to thoroughly sanitize the entire premises as an extra precaution. "We chose to do more because we wanted to make sure that everybody knew that we worked hard to ensure that they were safe," Powers said. We lost two nights of business, but all that doesnt mean anything. To make sure everybody's safe is what really is important to me and everybody here."

Those two nights of closure axed multiple music performances that had been scheduled at The Gutter as a part of CMJ, and the entire ordeal has made some uncertain about the bar and bowling alley's future prospects. Powers, though, was defiantly positive yesterday as he reopened and dismissed any suggestions that his business would have to fight any lengthy Ebola stigma.

Weve been getting so much support over Facebook and through different ways," he said yesterday. "Our regular customers are waiting for us to open so that they can come back and show their support. I think itll be a normal Saturday night, if not more.

TRI-STATE NEWS HEADLINES

From our newsroom to your inbox weekday mornings at 9AM.

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) Just days after the first Ebola patient was diagnosed in New York City, Brooklyn Borough President Eric Adams bowled the first frames at the Williamsburg bowling alley where the patient was said to have visited a day before he became ill.

The Gutterbowling alley reopened to the public Saturday afternoon following a thorough cleaning.

I was extremely comfortable and enjoyed myself, Adams told WCBS 880. I did not have the best bowling game, but at the same time I wanted Brooklynites to see that if the borough president was comfortable in going to The Gutter bowling lanes then theres no reason to be afraid.

EXTRA: More On Ebola From The CDC

Owner Todd Powers brought in a special cleaning firm even though the health department said that wasnt necessary, 1010 WINS Roger Stern reported.

The symbolism of bowling at The Gutter is sending a message to all Brooklynites that The Gutter is open and a safe place to continue to use recreationally, Adams said.

Many people who spoke with Stern said they would still go to The Gutter despite the recent events.

De Blasio, Brooklyn Borough President Work To Quell Publics Fears About Contracting Ebola

The Gutter will soon be the cleanest place in New York.

A biohazard company descended Friday night on the Brooklyn bowling alley where Ebola-afflicted doctor Craig Spencer played a few frames to rid the place of any trace of the deadly disease.

The hipster hot spots decontamination is being done by Bio-Recover Corp., which also handled the cleanup job at Spencers Harlem apartment.

The company promised a top-to-bottom cleanup, from the holes in the bowling balls to the light switches.

The first step is to use a fogging machine to circulate disinfectant throughout the facility.

Workers must focus particularly on the bowling balls. Traces of the virus could remain in a finger hole, and be transferred to another players face.

Of course, you go inside the ball, said Keith Capolino, who is president of Bio-One, another biohazard cleanup company.

Its the biggest risk of infection. We would spend the most time in those areas.

Cleaning the bathrooms and any areas where food and drinks are served would also be labor-intensive, said Capolino.

Porous objects, like bowling shoes, could be discarded to save time, or could be manually cleaned.
