| Marauder Armored Vehicle Featured in Top Gear Posted: 30 Mar 2012 01:47 PM PDT Top Gear episode 1 of season 17 aired on the BBC featuring a high-mobility armoured personnel carrier called the Marauder. Claimed to be the "world's most unstoppable vehicle" the Marauder can provide protection against mines, IEDs and ballistic attack. It can also carry up to 10 fully armed troops and can be configured in a number of variants depending on the role. Designed and built by the Paramount Group of South Africa, Top Gear sent co-host Richard Hammond there to put the Marauder through a series of extreme challenges. Without breaking a sweat, the Marauder flattened cars, smashed through brick walls and fended off attacks by hungry lions in the South African bush. As a finale, a Marauder and a Hummer were blown up in explosions simulating the roadside bombs faced daily in conflict zones. The Hummer was totally destroyed, but the Marauder was barely damaged and drove away. Weighing around 15 tons, the Marauder can carry 3 tons, hit a maximum speed of 120 km/h (75 mph).                                    Via: 4wheelfun

| Gaming is Good for You [Infographic] Posted: 29 Mar 2012 07:30 PM PDT Our latest infographic goes over some really great things video games are responsible for. It's pretty surprising to find that genre to genre, games can do some remarkable things for your brain and body. While I'm not thrilled to find my kids three hours in to a Halo session, I'm certainly relieved to learn that some real good can come out of their gaming. The other useful thing I took away is that moderation is crucial to healthy gaming. It makes sense. Video games have very real benefits but too much of the same thing, day in, day out, actually ends up hurting you. As a dad, it's a relief to hear that if I have to, I can still yank the plug and point to the door. Check out the inforgraphic and see what good gaming can do for you. Click on Image to Enlarge.
