Silverlit Sky Challenge Attack Helicopters

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2eEden1guIA

I think the Silverlit Sky Challenge attack helicopters are so awesome. A couple weeks ago I got a remote control helicopter at Toys R Us. It was just a small one to goof around with indoors. But the controls worked great and you could really fly it with the remote controls.

Today I’m in Toys R Us again and see this new pair of attack helicopters. They are both on seperate remote controls and have infrared firing guns so you can have air battles with another person. When you score a hit the helicopter goes flying to the ground. It’s very fun! I hope you enjoy the video which shows a couple tips on flying them. There are many more videos on YouTube of these in action too.

Price for the pair of remote control helicopters? Under $50 – now that’s awesome!

Zaia World Premiere August 28 2008

*Update – Premiere completed and successful. Everyone very happy.*

It’s finally here – our world premiere of ZAIA, Cirque Du Soleil’s new show at the Venetian in Macau (SAR) China on August 28, 2008.

It was over a year and a half ago that Cirque said to me “Would you be interested in Macau?” – I said yes because I prefer to always keep as many doors open as possible, but I had no idea what Macau even was. Then about a year ago that they officially signed me onboard for the gig.

UCLA Study Results Released

A study conducted by UCLA’s Department of Psychiatry has revealed that the kind of face a woman finds attractive on a man can differ depending on where she is in her menstrual cycle.

For example: If she is ovulating, she is attracted to men with rugged and masculine features.

However, if she is menstruating, or menopausal, she tends to be more attracted to a man with duct tape over his mouth and a spear lodged in his chest while he is on fire.

Dubai Firm Buys 20 Percent of Cirque Du Soleil

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/08/06/ap/business/main4324809.shtml

Excerpt:

The government-controlled developer of palm-shaped islands off Dubai’s coast and a related investment arm said Wednesday they have bought a 20 percent stake in international circus touring company Cirque du Soleil.

Property developer Nakheel and investment company Istithmar World Capital did not say how much they paid for their share of the group, which began performing in Quebec nearly a quarter century ago and is today a mainstay of theaters in Las Vegas and the Far East.

The agreement keeps control of the Montreal-based entertainment company in the hands of founder Guy Laliberte, putting to rest for now speculation that the troupe would be sold outright.
