Obama Calls Kanye A Jackass


I'm sure you've all heard about/seen Kanye's interruption of Taylor Swift's award acceptance. I personally don't think it's that big of a deal because A) he never explicitly said she should have lost, he simply said Beyonce's video was one of the best of all time, and B) Does anybody even really care about/respect those awards? They're pretty much a joke. I mean, half of the Best NEW Artist nominees have been making music for some time now. Also, I think Jay Leno might have gone a little too far when asking Kanye what his dead mother would have thought and if she would have lectured him. Cold, Leno, real cold.

Rematch BJ Penn!

When I watched UFC 94, Bj Penn vs George St. Pierre, i was literally astounded at the ease in which St. Pierre was able to continuously pass Penn's guard and in doing so, beat the shit out of him. As a jiu jitsu practitioner I have become very familiar with the Bj Penn's accomplishments which lead to the motivation behind his nickname "The Prodigy." He was the first American to win the World Jiu Jitsu Championship and has been known for his amazing leg dexterity and flexibility. He is a true fighter with a will that won't quit. That is the reason for this post. All MMA fans should know what transpired on that night and these videos go into detail about the event and what exactly happened. This series is cut into three parts and you can view the coinciding videos after the jump. EDIT: Once again this fucked html set up is down the drain so one page for all.

Battle of the Brands: Audi vs. BMW

The easiest way for car manufacturers to market themselves is through TV commercials. Usually, though, they have about 30 seconds with which to cram in all the statistics and impressive stuff about their car that they want you to know. That's not enough time for some friendly (or not) ribbing on the competition.

Billboards, on the other hand, are always there. But, they're only effective if they've got something catchy on them.

Enter Audi, masters of marketing (what new movie doesn't have an Audi in it?). The four circles ad had a new A4 with the tagline: "You're move, BMW"

Bavaria's response across the street? The M3, along with a single word: "Checkmate."



Kind of hard to come back from that, but Audi shifted gears and went with their beast, the R8, along with "Time to check your luxury badge. It may have expired." The only problem I have with this is that Audi chose to go with the R8, their most sport oriented car....




BMW decided they had owned their German counterparts enough, and gave the billboard space to Barneys, the department store. Audi, let's just stick to the Transporter series, shall we?

Respect My Speed! Time To Feed!

The eagle is reminiscent of the F1 Reno car that led Alonso to the pole position victory at the Monaco Grand Prix in 2006. A finely tuned piece of engineering genius that executes his will. The Osprey finally catches the fish that was on the scale in his war against Goliath. The eagle's speed and technique eclipse the distance. The ease at which he tracks down the osPrey; His ability to only do what was necessary to obtain his goal. his need; These are statements that resonate in the world. Where do you stand to fight? Do you even stand? Pass or Fail. Good or Evil. Surprised at which ones hold the keys.

Beautiful is the Lion

I have seen this video before but never really put it into perspective. The lion chose to charge his imminent attackers, and while doing so his fear, inspite of the dangers, with every intention of crushing it. At that moment he was willing to die for his virtues. That is the true definition of bravery. I applaud this lion and hope that more people will see the true meaning of life. Living in fear is the only avenue to something this tragic. Lets celebrate this lions life and make it mean something to you.

Wow look at that

The new BMW 7-series has perhaps the best looking gear shifter I've ever seen. It looks like it could let you make that car take off and fire a few missiles with that high tech look. It got me thinking about the artistry that has always gone into making higher end cars. I then came across a certain teaser trailer for something called "P1." It's purposely unclear what that is right now (we'll find out in March), but if you watch the trailer in the expanded post, just pay attention to the design of things. There's beauty wherever you look for it.

The Track Monster

Twenty one years ago, a meeting was being held at Chrysler HQ. In it, then Chrysler President pulled one of his chief designers aside and asked him to come up with a modern AC Cobra. The result was poisonous. Because of its long body, sleek, wide stance and scaled hood, there was no doubt that this monster was snake-like. They tried to call it the Copperhead, but this didn't sound menacing enough. So, it came to be known as the Dodge Viper.

My favorite Jeremy Clarkson quote is meant for that first generation Viper- he said it "handled like it was drunk." The car was fast, no doubt, but it couldn't be taken seriously as a high performance sports car. It had heating problems, cooling problems, and it didn't have suspension. But now, at 21, the Viper has reached maturity.


It's called the Viper SRT-10 ACR (American Club Racer), and it is the car I would have were I asked to save the world. The original 8.0 liter engine has been enlarged to 8.4 liters, hissing 600 horsepower and 560 lb.-ft. of torque, in a 3408 lb. body. It costs less than 1/10 the price of the SLR Stirling Moss while being faster around the Nurburgring than a Ferrari Enzo. In fact, it's the fastest production vehicle ever around the Nurburgring (7:22.1). That includes the Corvette ZR1, definitely faster than the Nissan GT-R and Porsche GT2, and trounces any of the Italians.

While this record will inevitably be broken, I find it incredible that that Viper was able to destroy a car like the Nissan GT-R. The GT-R is the pinnacle of engineering technology, based on the premise than computers can do things more quickly for humans than humans can themselves. The GT-R is about the technology, while the Viper is about the driver. The snake's unique, upright gear shifter commands you to sit up straight and pay attention when driving. You would be able to get away with sloppy driving in the Nissan, but the Viper would bite if you slipped on the throttle. Dodge redirected the heat from the exhaust- a major fault in early generation Vipers- while maintaining the absolutely beast-like sound.

This car is too brutal to drive everyday, but when you need something savage, this is it.

Vans (Jordan midsole) Owens Hi



Vans just dropped these for Spring 09 a.k.a. Now. These are available at Grip for a buck eighty. These are a little on the expensive side but these shoes are dope. I'm just glad one of these Jordan collab shoes (this is not technically a collab. Vans just racked that Jordan midsole right off the wall...cough cough) doesn't involve those ugly ass Nike Air Force Ones. This shoe has lifted a weight off of my sole....cuz the forces are bulky. haha. I will regrettably post the black colorway as well. That sole is one of the major drawing points of the shoe and the black colorway, specifically the Vans Owen Hi Vulc ($140), has that SAME OLD Vans sole. I am not hating on that sole however. I love that basic white sole with the waffle grip on much of the Vans line, but on this shoe, that Jordan sole is too legit. If you are trying to save a little money and don't mind missing out on the Jordan sole then be my guest. I just can't deny that quilted white upper with the red accents. Ups to Vans for sure. I hope they continue on this path.

You Know His Name

Chris Cornell, of Soundgarden, Audioslave, and James Bond fame, has a new album coming out in which he shows off even more range. It's called Scream and was produced by big nig Timbaland. Cornell is one of the few guys who, I think, has a voice that can pretty much sing anything (Freddy Mercury, Bert McCrackin, and the guy from Linkin Park are his peers on that front). In this album it sounds like he's trying to go for more of a rock/pop sound.

Click after the break to see the video for his single, Scream. The entire album is supposed to drop sometime in early March, but as this is the internet, it's already been leaked in full quality. Overall I think it's a pretty good album, definitely an interesting style for him. Click here to download.
