This collapsible bike helmet is pretty awesome. It might get people to wear a helmet that would normally never wear one. The Closca Fuga Black collapsible helmet offers a nice alternative to the typical helmet since it will easily fit in a bag and it even looks kinda cool. Kinda. It’s still a bike helmet after all.

It consists of is three circular shell components that fold down and nest inside one other so that it doesn’t take up much space. That makes it much easier to take with you and stow in a bag. The helmet has passed certification in Europe, Canada and the United States, so it also protects just like any other helmet.

You can pre-order the Closca helmet for €72.00 ($77 USD). Now you really don’t have an excuse not to wear one.

He’s not very good at actually hiding the eggs, but the kids like it anyway! Happy Easter from the Holiday Man and People of Walmart!!!!

Coined "the world's first pancake printer," the PancakeBot allows you to print out pancakes into just about any design you can imagine. The printer comes with user-friendly software that allows users to design their own pancake by tracing any image right on their computer. The machine was created by civil engineer Miguel Valenzuela in 2013 originally with Legos.

The Kickstarter campaign has raised over $320,000, which is $270,000 more than the original $50,000 goal. You can get your own PancakeBot early by contributing $179 to the Kickstarter campaign. The printer is set to go for $299 upon its official release.

The race is heating up between live-streaming apps Meerkat and Periscope — but it's too early and too close to call a winner quite yet.

Both live-streaming apps offer what largely amounts to the same experience: You can quickly and easily broadcast live video of what you're doing, allowing your friends and Twitter followers to click on a broadcast and tune in.

Meerkat dominated the tech scene for the two weeks leading up to this year's South by Southwest festival, gaining over 200,000 users ranging from Jimmy Fallon to the BBC. But at the peak of Meerkat's hype, Twitter, who had recently acquired Meerkat rival Periscope, decided to cripple Meerkat temporarily by shutting off its Twitter integration — which left Meerkat users without an easy way to connect with their friends.

Meerkat responded by adding new discovery features to its app to remedy the problem, but by then Twitter had officially launched Periscope, which quickly broke into the top 10 social networking apps in the App Store and became a trending topic on Twitter.

With Twitter and most of the tech press behind it, Periscope was now in the spotlight, and with the help of its close integration with Twitter and a fresh app design, it made a compelling case to the live-streaming crown.

But after a week with both Periscope and Meerkat released to the public, the race is heating up.

From a usage standpoint, Quartz's Dan Frommer points out that the two apps are now seeing similar engagement. By analyzing Topsy's data on the number of tweets per day, Frommer highlights that Periscope is only seeing "a few thousand" more tweets every day than Meerkat — proving that Meerkat could end up prevailing when all is said and done.

The next month will be critical for Meerkat.

Not only does it need to prove that its own ecosystem is better than Periscope's — a tough thing to prove now that Periscope is essentially Twitter -- it also needs to show that it can offer the same level of features and polish. Meerkat has done a great job releasing new updates at a fast pace, but Periscope already has some unique feedback features that some would argue give it an edge over Meerkat, and some of this extra thought and polish could be our first glimpse at the benefits of working with Twitter on an app's feature set.

Meerkat is now the underdog, however, and that can be a powerful thing. Twitter's initial move to hamstring Meerkat left a bad taste in the mouth of many, and Meerkat has more than doubled its user base to over 500,000 even with Periscope being available.

The race between Meerkat and Periscope isn't over quite yet, but it likely will be in a month.

Smoked Salmon, Lemon and Caper Deviled Eggs

This is the time of year that a favorite dish is frequently served: deviled eggs. As I love to entertain and to cook, I often have people over for meals. Many times, deviled eggs are on the table as one of the appetizers. They are always a popular item as they are traditional and delicious, yet also low carb, and their fat content can easily be adjusted if desired. I sometimes make them simply, with extra mustard, mayonnaise, a dash or two of either lemon juice, vinegar or hot sauce, and always a lot of chopped, fresh dill. If I want to get more elaborate, this recipe from Emeril Lagasse for deviled eggs with lump crabmeat is never left over. (My one deletion is the caviar/salmon roe.)

This article from Southern Living offers up nineteen ways to prepare deviled eggs. Their recipes look appetizing and simple to prepare, for the most part.

Are you a fan of this classic dish? If so, what's your favorite way to make them?
