If you hate being stuck in traffic jams, don’t worry, because the new flying car PAL-V is on it way. This Dutch project is a hybrid 3-wheel vehicle that can fly as a gyrocopter and also be driven as a regular car, or to be more precise, like a motorcycle.
Following an accident time is of the essence and, in the adrenalin fuelled aftermath of such incidents the emergency services invariably have to work frantically amidst the chaotic throng of police, fire crews and over inquisitive onlookers in order to assess the status of the injured who may be drifting sporadically in and out of consciousness.
A wealth of information has to be amassed concerning blood groups, known drug allergies and the extent of the injuries sustained in as quickly as possible so as to enable correct prioritisation of care and, in the heat of the action, even the slightest mistake occasioned by something not being documented or communicated correctly can cost lives.
We all need the odd compliment from time to time and for those of us who don’t deserve said compliment here’s the answer. the Ego Boost Keyring.

Everyone knows what fish lazing around inside fish bowl looks like, but how many of you have actually laid eyes on fish swimming inside a tea cup? Why not make that piece of imagination come true by picking up the Teacup Fish Bowl? This unique ‘aquarium’, if I may have the liberty of calling it so, is shaped after the traditional teacup albeit in a much bigger proportion. The inclusion of a handle definitely adds a nice touch to the setup, giving fish lovers yet another choice when it comes to choosing the proper home for their finned friends.

Their lifestyle requires them to be ready to leave at a moment’s notice – pretty much like a nomad of yore. This briefcase might not contain a single piece of clothing, but what it does do is bring relief during the most constipated times in your traveling life. Have you ever been stuck in a traffic jam or during those long commutes, where you’re even willing to sell your own mother just to take a crap in the john? Assuming the Gotta Go Briefcase concept takes off, that will be a thing of the past, as this fully functioning briefcase doubles up as a portable lavatory.

Now, we all know the accessory market for the iPod is like. . . empty, I mean, there’s nothing you can buy for it. Well, some ingenious company decided that you need a privacy guard for your iPod.
