A blender having a base, a container, and a blade base includes a motor, a microcontroller, memory, a sensor and a user interface. The blade base connects the container to the base and includes a blade unit having at least a first blade and a second blade of a different design from the first blade.

A blender having a base, a container, and a blade base includes a motor, a microcontroller, memory, a sensor and a user interface. The blade base connects the container to the base and includes a blade unit having at least a first blade and a second blade of a different design from the first blade. The microcontroller is in communication with the memory, sensor, motor, and user interface. Programs with preprogrammed motor commands for desired operations are stored in the memory. The user interface includes a liquid crystal display, or function switches and light emitting diodes. Upon selection of a particular pre-defined function, the microcontroller retrieves the appropriate program from the read only memory and specifies the preprogrammed motor commands to accomplish the selected function.

The system of claim 1, wherein the notification comprises at least one of a message communicated via: electronic mail; a facsimile machine; a telephone; or a paging device. 6. The system of claim 1, wherein at least one of the plurality of applications comprises code that explicitly generates event messages to be communicated to the event router. 7. A system for generating notifications, comprising: a plurality of applications that each generate event messages; a router in communication with the applications, the router operable to receive the event messages; a plurality of event handlers in communication with the router, each event handler operable to receive one or more of the event messages received by the router, each event handler communicating registration information to the router specifying which event messages should be communicated by the router to the event handler upon receipt of the event messages at the router; and a set of rules within the router, the set of rules being determined by the registration information received from each event handler, each rule being associated with a selected subset of the event messages and comprising at least one conditional statement to be applied to its associated selected subset of the event messages; when the router receives an event message, the router is operable to evaluate the one or more rules associated with the event message, and for rules that evaluate to True, forward the event message to
