Incase Designs x DC LIFE 2009 Spring Collection



A friend of mine just recently bought an Incase bag, she seemed to really like it. This is a special one due out this spring. They did in collaboration with extreme sportswear brand, DC . Not only will it keep your laptop(in my case MBP) safe but youu can pack your board and whatever you would want to as well.

20101 Lotus Evora







The first Lotus I would actually consider buying.

The 276-hp Toyota-sourced 3.5-liter V6 with a 6-speed manual gearbox is standard. A close-ratio version of the gearbox will be available as an option. Cast 18-inch front and 19-inch rear alloys shod with Yokohama Advan Sport LTS rubber are the standard fitment, while forged wheels are available for an extra cost.

Namir by Giugiaro the world's fastest hybrid car








Frazer Nash has developed a series hybrid drivetrain (like the Voltec drivetrain in the Chevy Volt) that uses an 814cc rotary engine driving a generator. The generator charges a 400V lithium polymer battery pack that feeds electrons to a pair of electric motors at each axle with a cumulative output of 362 hp. The system is claimed to give the Namir a top speed of 187 mph, 0-62 mph acceleration in 3.5 seconds while still managing 91.7 mpg (US)! Not too shabby.

iPhone Bluetooth Gun Headset



Hate wearing Bluetooth headsets, but have an Airsoft gun laying around? This project should do the trick. Simply "pull the trigger to receive calls, listen through the barrel, and talk into the grip." Video after the break.

yea it's real, but it's also a hilarious joke thats why I'm posting it.

BASIC ECONIMCS


"See the only way to survive in this society is to have a hustler mentality. See as long as you're working for your money, your money is not working for you; you'll forever be a slave."

I realizing now, that I'm addicted and am interested in those that have found/seek truth in life. This is one of my all-time favorites.

Sebastian Onufszak [Graphic Artist]







Probably one of my favorite graphic artists, definetely up witht he likes of chuck anderson and such. I love the vibrancy and the sheer energy in the colors that come through in all his work

Ye - Storytellers



"More than a artist, I'm a real person. And, real people grow... and I just wanted to sing my growth."
-Ye'

The live strings on this track always get me. Watching this make think about how lucky I was to have seen the Glow in the Dark Tour. It was a tour that will go down in history as one of the best shows of my generation.


That statement pretty much summed up what he was trying to accomplish with 808s perfectly (and all his albums really). Unlike most rappers, and artist in general, he realizes the importance of evolution. Continually trying to reinvent one's self while stiling trying to push the envolope of an entire genre and still trying to maintain ones identity, has to be the hardest thing for an artist to do. Although the outcomes from the process might not be widely accepted, but from artist to another, he should atleast deserve your respect undoubtly.
