iCage, The Bike Lock For Your iPod

Master Lock claims that 4-percent of all robberies are due to iPod thefts, so why not slap a bike lock on it? You just spent your entire month’s allowance on that brand new iPod Touch. Now, you’re looking for a lock so you can hang it up on any street post to force the general public into listening to whatever it is you listen to nowadays.

You’ll be dismayed to know that Master Lock’s iCage, the metal case that secures your iPod to a fixed object, is only designed for the 4GB and 8GB iPod Nano at $14.99 and iPod Classic models at $19.99 per lock. The latest Apple gear won’t fit into this. What a bummer.

Helicopters Can Fly Upside Down?

Filed under: Transportation, Videos

Chuck Aaron, the only FAA-certified helicopter stunt pilot in the US, is showing off his piloting skills at the AirVenture show in Oshkosh. The single-manned Martin Jetpack isn’t the only eye popping, sky soaring demonstration going on in Oshkosh. Chuck uses a Eurocopter BO-105 CBS 4 Twin engine helicopter with a fixed rotor kept in the positive pitch allowing it to do aerobatics. Check out the above video to see him do a wicked nose dive that’ll make your nose bleed just by watching.  I hope he’s got a Lifebag in the event of engine failure.
