The Audi Shark Concept and Police Chases

Yup…it’s that time again. It’s time for me to give you with a quick rundown of what Ben and I have been up to on our High Speed Stuff podcast over the past week. So, without further delay, here’s what you can expect to find on iTunes…

On Tuesday, with Discovery’s Shark Week well underway, Ben and I felt inspired to do a topic that somehow tied-in with the week-long event. We thought: Cars and sharks…sharks and cars…something sharky…hmmm. Then it hit us. The Audi Shark concept! Notice I didn’t say concept car. That’s because the Audi Shark concept is actually a hovercraft. I’ve always been fascinated by hovercraft, so this topic was a lot of fun for me. And I think Ben really got into this one, too. So, is Audi really going to build a hovercraft? And where did this unusual design come from? If you don’t already know, I truly think you’ll be surprised by the answer. Of course, we spent a little time covering the basics of hovercraft operation, too. We even discussed the idea of using a hovercraft as daily transportation. Would it be practical? What would be the benefits and the limitations? I guess you’ll just have to listen to the podcast to learn why we’re not all able to drive hovercraft to-and-from work or school everyday.

And before we knew it, it was Thursday, and Ben and I had an entertaining discussion about police chases. I swear to you, this was not inspired by anything that happened over last weekend…seriously. We just both have an avid interest in learning how these things typically unfold — sometimes even on live television. We talked about the many, many ways that officers are trained to effectively put an end to a high-speed pursuit and, of course, why it’s a really bad idea to run in the first place. Man, for some reason I really want to see an episode or two of “COPS” right now.

So anyway, that’s what’s happening on the High Speed Stuff podcast this week. If you’d like, surf over to iTunes and give it a listen. And as I mention every week: Yes, it’s free. Just don’t forget while you’re there to take the opportunity to browse through some of our older episodes and give us a little feedback. You can also let us know what you think in the comment section below, or if you’d rather send us an e-mail, you can do that, too. Ben always reads the address at the end of each podcast.

    どのジャージにおいても、タテに走るネイビー色のラインは生地に直接染めてありますNIKE ジャージ。
    レプリカジャージはナイロンメッシュ生地です。NIKE ジャージほぼ同じ倍率にも関わらず、メッシュ穴の大きさが他の２つに比べて、小さく非常にきめ細かに入っていることがわかります。またナイロン独特のテカつき があるのも特徴ですNIKE ジャージ。
    一方、スウィングマンジャージはポリエステルメッシュ生地で出来ていますNFLジャージ。レプリカジャージよりもメッシュ穴が大きく、目を凝らすと生地の織り目まで見えます。オーセンティックジャージ（≒実使用）にも同じ生地素材を採用 してい用いるチームが多いため、より選手が着用する実使用の物に近い仕様になっております。また、手触りはレプリカジャージと異なり、reebok ジャージザラザラしているのも特徴です。

    My dream gucci handbags - This gucci bag, in whiskey, is the ultimate everyday gucci bags sale. louis vuitton handbags has the look of a good vintage purse and is well constructed with leather.Handbag lv is roomy enough for all of my purse stuff, and I carry quite a bit. The lv bags two front pockets are roomy enough for a cell phone, keys, and more. The shoulder strap is just the right length. Aside from the fact that the inner pockets and divided sections prevent me from my usual routine of taking everything out of my lv designer handbags to find what I need, the best part is that coach handbags looks as good in person as coach leather handbag does online, which isn't always the case. I've been looking for a long time for a rugged leather bag in a good color and I finally found one!xxhhjjzz

    The nike basketball shoes is a shoe that has fantastic color blocking options. Usually even the general release models are very nicely put together in terms of color way so when style maven Nike Air Shoes got his hands on a pair to make over the results were set to be magical Nike Kobe IV.
    The man with a Louis Vuitton sneaker named after him got a chance to design a very limited number of SB Trainers and he chose a very standout palette from materials to colors. Green suede meets pink nike air max 2009 and its held together by green croc and black leather. As previously stated these are extremely limited as only 2 pair have been created. That means just savor the images below.

    The Air Jordans are being worn by Melo and word is that 3000 pairs will be made available at select outlets including House of Hoops, Niketown and Eastbay. How's that for building a design portfolio? No word on release date, nike basketball shoes but we’ll keep you posted.
    Future Sole design contest winner Air Jordans has us all jealous. Not only did the guy get to design a sneaker for Carmelo Anthony, but they are now actually seeing a release. Air Max 90 is a phenomenal feat and definitely commendable.
