What make a real man is the knowledge on how to prepare the perfect steak. I am slowly teaching myself, but am happy that Lobel has decided to help me out with their Meat Bible! No more prepared, soaked in cheap sauce, steaks from the large Supermarket, but stroll over to the local butcher and use the Meat Bible to guide you to a perfect piece of cooked meat.
Today I am sitting behind my Mac, with all kinds of devices hooked up via extension cords to the main power source…. I now have found the thing to make less clutter, but also very stylish to charge all my devices. Powermat is a new gadget that charges your iPhone, Blackberry, iPod, PSP, Nintendo DS, and much more, by just placing it on the beautifully designed mat. You can charge up too 3 devices at a time. All you have to do is use the Powermat case for the iPhone, Special Battery Door, or the universal receiver with your device, and you are set to charge.

For coming spring Adidas Basketball made a very nice campaign starring Kevin Garnett and Derrick Rose.
For those who don’t know.. these two guys are the best young point guard and one of the best power forward playing in the NBA.
Finishing off Patta’s five year anniversary the guys from Amsterdam collaborated with San Fransico based HUF. This capsule collection consists of a cap and t-shirt, both in two colors. And a longsleeve in a grey colorway.
To me it looks like a nice collaboration and a good end to some great stuff Patta dropped over the last year for their fifth anniversary.
Good evening class! Today’s lesson, how to give birth to your very own AVATAR. Professor Peter Ammentorp will take us through the paces. Good Luck!
They could have chosen Michael Jackson’s last footage to be the main part of his last video, but Spike Lee decided to go with old footage and make us understand that MJ was a real person with an amazing talent. Thank you Mr. Lee
Dam-Funk have made a great mix called “Beautiful Music 4 Beautiful People” for the opening of their Clae shop-in-shop at the Stussy LA chapter. If you were not at the opening, you can either listen to it below, or download it for yourself…. Enjoy
After a great collaboration this fall / winter season between Pendleton and Opening Ceremony some images of the coming spring / summer collection for 2010 have been shared with us.
Some great shots, showing Opening Ceremonies view on Pendletons native American designs.
A great example of how a company like Pendleton, that has been founded 100 years ago, has been picked up again by high end shops and is now attractive to a entire new target group.
I hope you are all happy with the Christmas presents you got? If not, I got the great book to exchange it for! I was given The Book Of Conversations this Christmas by James from Perfect Fools and love it. With all raise in Online Social Networks, we are loosing the art of conversation. I notice this especially when I am in a group. The conversation always goes towards what we all do and how we can all make more money. It is never a conversation about a thought provoking questions.

Kanye is Back!!! Well actually this time to show off the A Bathing Ape‘s Spring 2010 lookbook. The Collection has a piece for everyone, from the quiet hustler to the loud pimp…. Great simple pieces mixed with the colourful print and solid pieces, makes it a overall collection. Gotta love Bape.
I came across BASTA SURF, a collection of swimwear, a few weeks ago, and loved the simplicity of the design. I read further and found out they thy combined fashion and function based on sophisticated shapes and fabric that feels like a second skin. They considered all female body types when creating the collection, while looking at the right material and seaming for the pieces. Another great story is that the hangtag is made of 100% recycled paper and embedded with wildflower seeds. This means you can plant it, water it and watch it grow. Talk about a growing collection! Read the piece on the founder and designer, Samantha August, below and read about why a portion of BASTA‘s sales go to Global Water.
adidas Originals have joined forces with graffiti artist Fafi. The lookbook shows Fafi showing off her collab apparel and sneakers. Love the look of the shoot.
Still looking for a Christmas present? Well I got a early present last week to test out. The Backflip from iAccessory is a iPhone case which not only protects it, but also makes it stand up on its own. What did I use it for till now? Well first of all I installed the Alarm Clock App, and used it as a clock next to my bed. Bringing back the feel of those old skool slarm clocks.
