Ferrari Prank Proves That Women Only Care About Money (Video)
November 8, 2013
Hahahaaaaaaa! That last … ummm … girl (yellow tank top)… was P*SSED! Wasn’t even gonna give dude the time of day, huh? Until she saw his candy red Ferrari. Then she had the nerve to get mad when he tells her she is actually not going for a ride in it. Tsk, tsk, tsk… At least this way she wouldn’t have to ‘ride with a stranger’ right?
We went out with a 2013 Red Ferrari Italia 458 to go on a social experiment and see if it can pick up ladies no matter how you look and this is how it went.:)

Puerto Rock Steady 2013 (Video)
November 6, 2013
Foundational Hip-Hoppers The Rock Steady Crew take the party to Puerto Rico in the best way. Widely known fact that influences in Hip-Hop arts and culture from PR. It’s only right that the Crew travel down to one of the seminal sources of b-boying and more. First Annual Puerto Rock Steady was a smash. Check out what Crazy Legs had to say about the event…
“The event took place in Isabela, Puerto rico. The dream is to make this an international music and dance festival to serve as an alternative to other events that may be great, but are missing the soul that exist in many genre’s of music. The vibes, music, people and scenery at Puerto Rock steady were nothing less then AMAZING! Picturesque from morning to sun set. Puerto Rock Steady is only in it’s infancy and and we expect to grow very fast. The resort that it was held on was sold out with out any promotion outside of Twitter and Facebook. The word of mouth after event is already putting us ahead of schedule for 2014 with bookings.”
Watch out 2014. Here it comes! Check out the recap clip above to experience a bit of the fun that was had.

Travel: The World’s Nicest Prisons (Video)
November 5, 2013
If you live in the U.S., nine times out of ten, you or someone you know has been to jail… even if it’s not JAIL jail (e.g. prison). They might have come out with that dismissive steely-eyed thug life declaration, “Jail ain’t sh!t.”
And you, knowing better, didn’t believe a word. You know jail SUCKS. But traveling outside the U.S. and getting incarcerated in one of these facilities… well… you could do worse. Some might say the prisoners of these facilities live in relative luxury. Of course, no prison can be considered “luxury accommodations” because, by definition, imprisonment takes away the one accommodation we all supposedly have from birth – LIBERTY.
That’s as deep as this post gets. I swear.
Above: Watch a “promo clip” for the ‘world’s nicest prison’ (in Norway) with clips for some runners-up embedded after the jump.

Crate Diggers: RJD2 Shows Off His Vinyl Collection (Video)
November 4, 2013
RJD2 digging back in the day with a simple mission: Find something to sample that hadn’t been sampled before. Simple. Understandable. Worthwhile. Just like this episode of Fuse TV’s Crate Diggers. RJD2 talks about the other things that make him pick a particular record, and why he thinks vinyl digging is doomed to die out soon.

David George aka ‘The Bug Chef’: The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook (Video)
October 25, 2013
David George Gordon – known the world over as the ‘Bug Chef’ came to Seattle (Washington, USA) to promote “The Eat-A-Bug Cookbook” and to cook up some delicious creepy-crawlers… spiders. scorpions, you know… delicacies.
WHAT??? I know… Blech!!
Nah, for real. The cookbook features “33 ways to cook grasshoppers, ants, water bugs, spiders, centipedes, and their kin.” And as you will see in the clip above, he makes little attempt to ‘mask the natural bug flavor’ of his dishes. A dash of spice, a quick steam over lemon juice, and viola! Grub… yeah, he probably has a grub worm recipe or three, too.
“Of all the different dishes I make, I think the tarantula is actually the tastiest.”

The Electric Superbike Of The Future (Video)
October 25, 2013
Conventional combustion engine motorcycles vs. Mission Motorcycle’s electric superbike. Way less mechanical noise with much the same speed, Mission’s RS model (above) is a limited-edition, top-end bike.
The RS’s electric motor produces a huge-but-not-unheard-of 160 horsepower; the 130 foot-pounds of torque puts it at least in the superbike world. Even then, the bike’s lack of a transmission means going from zero to 60, which takes less than three seconds, requires nary a shift. Hitting its limited top speed of 150 miles an hour requires little more than twisting the throttle and holding on.
– Vice Motherboard
For $58,999, you get the best suspension, carbon wheels, and perhaps the most advanced gauge, navigation, and telemetry system available on a bike. It’s worth the money, if you have it. Today’s concept is almost as good as current gas-powered peers… almost…

Dwyane Wade – Journey To 3 (Documentary)
October 23, 2013
“The journey is to 3… Three symbolizes to me a lot of what I believe in – The Father, The Son, The Holy Ghost… I needed to lean on my faith…”
Suffice it to say the game is more than basketball to champions. It’s life – mind, body & soul. But to watch this D. Wade documentary – Journey To 3 – you get a real chance to see the man being real. Miami Heat basketball is definitely the context, but watch for what you learn about the athlete taking care of himself, the man persevering through adversity, and the father being with and for his family. A lot expertly squeezed into half a half-hour.
ICYMI: @DwyaneWade released his new “Journey to 3” documentary yesterday! http://t.co/O4hVLSFqRJ Check it out! #DWadeJT3

Another Fresh Off The Boat with Eddie Huang. Hilarity and insight pepper over a culture and history lesson… you know how Eddie do. We certainly post enough of his videos on here. And we will continue to do so as long as he keeps hitting us with incredible travel content like this.
In this episode of Fresh Off the Boat, Eddie heads to Mongolia to take part in the Naadam festival, which celebrates the “three manly sports” — archery, horse racing, and Mongolian wrestling. Then he chats up some camel herders (politics) over a cup of home-brewed camel vodka. Eddie goes on to check out a meat market, an outdoor metal festival, and making some modern restaurant cuisine…and there will be sheep eyeballs (tasty). All this, and Eddie even makes an appearance on Mongol TV later.
Three parts… start above; and continue after the jump.

VICE: The Florida Mandingos (Documentary) [NSFW]
October 17, 2013
Although swinging culture in Atlanta is something I’m told is growing I can readily admit it’s a lifestyle that’s not for me. The racial element to interracial swinging is also one that is not that easy for many to comprehend as well, but in this ‘Vice Guide To Sex’ documentary we ran across featuring a Florida man by the name of Art Hammer, he attempts put into perspective as to why any man would be comfortable with another man having sex with his wife & the racial elments of the lifestyle. VICE reporter Alex Miller covers all the kinky angles for this story for VBS.TV. Although this is a news piece some of the video & content, although blurred out, is still strong & graphic so therefore it may Not be Safe For Work.
“VICE follows Art on a road trip leading up to a ‘Hot Chocolate’ party he’s hosting at a purpose built sex bungalow called the Shangri Lust. Along the way we meet the key players who make up the lifestyle: the insatiable wives and their cuckolded white husbands obsessed with sex with black men, and Art’s A-team, the crème de la crème of [The Florida] Mandingos.”

Technology: You Can Have A Flying Car In Your Garage In 2015 (Video)
October 16, 2013
Might as well face it… the future of private transportation WILL include aircraft! We already posted on the James Bond-esque seaplane coming out. Cool, but you need 750 feet of clear water or land strip to take off or land. Enter Terrafugia’s flying concept TF-X car, slated to go to market in 2015… no pilot’s license required, can fit in a standard garage, and will VERTICALLY TAKE OFF AND LAND! Yeah. You could fly out of traffic jams. Terrafugia is already testing a flying car for pilots. This is happening people.

VICE: The Japanese Love Industry (Video)
October 16, 2013
‘In a society that commoditizes everything, sex sells, and the Japanese are buying!’
– Ryan Duffy, VICE
VICE with another very interesting expo. We posted the one on successful women ‘hiring out’ for boyfriends a short while ago. So, what might happen to a society that, on the whole, does more ‘microwave dating’ than mating and creating families? VIBE found an answer… Less focus on family, and more focus on buying, has left Japan a nation that is dying.
‘Japan is a country that is dying—literally. Japan has more people over the age of 65 and the smallest number of people under the age of 15 in the world. It has the fastest negative population growth in the world, and that’s because hardly anyone is having babies. In these difficult times, the Japanese are putting marriage and families on the back burner and seeking recreational love and affection as a form of cheap escape with no strings attached. We sent Ryan Duffy to investigate this phenomenon, which led him to Tokyo’s cuddle cafes and Yakuza-sponsored prostitution rings.’

VICE: Black Bike Week (Video)
October 11, 2013
“We call it Black Bike Week. Whether you’re Black, White, Asian, Chinese, or Japanese, we don’t give a f**k! We ridin’!”
VICE covers the annual Black Bike Week in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, over Memorial Day weekend. Half a million Black (mostly) bikers and event go-ers gather for several days of riding and partying… and traffic-stopping flossing and bike stunts up and down the seafront strip.
And…
‘Hordes of women—known as “huggers”—also flock to Myrtle Beach for the event, hoping to be picked up for a ride, and maybe something more. A girl will often perform the “pillion clapping” move as a passenger—essentially twerking on the back of the bike. Unfortunately, the combination of partying and biking without a helmet isn’t an especially safe one, and every year there are people who don’t make it home. The event also attracts a ton of prostitutes, but more and more women are starting to ride their own bikes and each year an increasing number of female biker gangs show up for the party.’
– VICE
Sigh… if there was a seedy side to this week of debauchery, you know VICE would expose it. Let’s watch and learn… about that ‘clapping’ thing, too.

Technology: Do You Want To Know When You’re Going To Die? Check Your Tikker (Video)
October 8, 2013
“Dubbed the ‘death watch,’ Tikker has been created by Swedish inventor Fredrik Colting but far from being morbid, Colting calls it ‘The Happiness Watch’ and claims it has been designed to help people make the most of their life and cherish the time they have left.”
– DailyMail UK
The way it works: Users fill out a questionnaire about their medical history before subtracting their age from the results to get their death score. This score is entered into the watch and the countdown begins.

Technology: The Icon A5 Collapsible Seaplane (Video)
October 2, 2013
The Icon A5 aircraft is a collapsible seaplane straight from a James Bond movie! Intuitive design (e.g. almost anyone could learn to fly it quickly), portable (no more trouble to transport than towing a speedboat with a hitch)… can run on regular fuel… Man! Now, if they could drop that sticker price a touch. Incredible tech (and ‘big boy’ toy) right here.

Founder Ali Mahmoud Speaks On Alif Laam Meem – America’s First Muslim Fraternity (Video)
September 23, 2013
This looks interesting.
Ali Mahmoud shares the origins story of AΛM, aka Alif Laam Meem, the first and only nationwide Muslim fraternity in the United States. Though the things that come to mind typically associated with fraternity life probably turn off most followers of Islam, Founder and Executive President Mahmoud provides insight on the organization and why it might benefit those who belong to it.
“Why would any Muslim want to join a fraternity? …There’s some really good connections that build up over time in a fraternity… Some great leaders, Martin Luther King, was part of a fraternity. And just the human need to make friends… there was a void that needed to be filled… some kind of way for a Muslim male… [to live a] lifestyle that is synthesized with an organic college social experience.”
– Ali Mahmoud
You can learn more about AΛM by visiting the frat’s website – almfrat.com – and by watching the information brief after the jump.
