PIR Motion Sensors
Using an Arduino for motion sensing is a fun project. It’s fairly inexpensive, and doesn’t require a high skill level. You can trigger an LED, an alarm, or even open a door. From Blue Smoke Labs: One of our best

We blogged about the Speakjet chip previously, but here is a snap on shield with all the hard work done for you, you can concentrate on creatively assembling speech, sound effects, and tones to your hearts content. Become the Maker
A master list of plugin “shields” for the Arduino family. Everything from display shields, ethernet, wifi, even sound and data logging. Over 100 and still increasing. Check it out! Sick of trying to figure out which pins are used
In cooperation with Hacktronics.com, we are giving away a free Arduino UNO to one lucky subscriber of our Arduino discussion group. Tell your friends, join the group, and discuss all things Arduino. If the giveaway is popular, we may continue
Give your Arduino the ability to talk with the Speakjet Chip! From http://www.practicalarduino.com/projects/speech-synthesizer: Synthesized speech was for a long time the Holy Grail of computing, and back in the 1980s when a 4MHz CPU made your computer the fastest machine

Using a Arduino as a furnace or boiler controller is fairly simple. You need a thermostat, a flame sensor, and a set of relays (electromechanical or solid state) to control the blower or circulator(s), and fuel pump if using fuel
