Beer Blaster is a blasphemy for beer lovers

Now they have this thing out and its a water gun kind of toy that shoots, not water, but beer! To get the whole crime underway all you have to do is shake your can and slide it into the little space made for it on the shooter. Locking it down will puncture a small hole in the can, thus causing the beverage to jet out of the can and off the nozzle of the gun. Make sure that you have the trigger pressed when the things aimed at someone’s mouth since beer wasn’t made to go anywhere else. The only respectable thing you can do to save the sad plight of all the beer that can be wasted is to purchase all of these and destroy them. Good for shooting haha!

Julian Hakes’ ‘Mojito’ shoes

They can hardly be called shoes but theoretically they are…

The idea of wraparound shoes with no plates appeared when the designer was observing foot prints in sand. He noticed that the force of movement was primarily put on the ball and heel, this meant the foot plate on shoes is not important.
The innovative shoes were created from carbon fibre (with rubber for soles and leather on the sides) that wrap and writhe around the foot, supporting the heel and the ball while the foot acts as a bridge between the two.

The result you can see at the picture. It doesn’t look like an average shoe but sure there is something interesting in it.
Wondering if these shoes shoes are comfortable, would it be a hit or a flop?

Hellz 2009 Fall “Midnight Riders” Collection


Contemporary fashion brand Hellz is pleased to present their Fall 2009 Delivery 2 Collection, entitled “Midnight Riders”, photographed by Brooke Nipar. By utilizing dark themes found in the iconic 80’s flick “Mad Max”, “Midnight Riders” aims to represent the ideology of the subversive in not only fact and fiction, but fashion as well.


Black, pewter gray and grenadine red are colors present throughout the collection to set the tone and to compliment the progressive and functional silhouettes by drawing attention to the details of each piece. Clever silhouettes, unique details, and the use of simple colors emphasize form and function while creating a true display of female strength, sensuality and independence that is: “Midnight Riders.”

No car and fast food neighbourhood will make you fat

This is a funny survey. The September issue of the Journal of Urban Health did a study where they say that if you don’t own a car you tend to become fatter. Why? Because it makes you walk to your closes restaurant and you can eat! They studied 2,156 adults from the Los Angeles Family and Neighborhood Study database and found that car owners weighed about 8.5 pounds more than those who didn't own cars on average. And they ALSO found out that in neighborhoods with many fast food places, non-car owners weighed 12 pounds more than car-less folks in areas without fast food restaurants, and 2.7 pounds more than their neighbors who owned cars. So you only become really thin if you had no food outlets nearby and neither a car to drive to one. Don’t have many comments on this.
