monday morning coffee shot
AeroShot Pure Energy is the brainchild of Harvard professor David Edwards whose culinary innovations include inhalable chocolate and many others.
It delivers an airborne shot of instant energy: Each cartridge contains 100 mg. of caffeine, 6 to 8 puffs of fine powder that dissolves instantly in your mouth. It provides as much caffeine in one shot as a large cup of strong coffee. It´s safe and healthy, completely calorie free (unlike coffee or energy drinks), plus it won´t stain your teeth.
AeroShot will be hitting the stores soon, but you can apply at their website for a free sample.
Found here. More info here.

Melancholia (the real one)
On November 8, an asteroid 400 meters across will pass by the Earth, missing us by the very comfortable margin of about 320,000 kilometers.
It’s name is 2005 YU55 and it’s classified as a Potentially Hazardous Asteroid because its orbit intersects ours, but observations have shown it won’t be a danger to Earth for at least a century, and probably much more.
There’s been some scare-mongering about it over the past few months, but the truth is that the rock will pass us safely, sailing on into the night.

Oh, such a perfect day…
Murplejane is a young Athenian architect and this is her first video attempt, shot exclusively on her phone. No words, no unnecessary emotionalism, no extra effects, just powerfully edited glimpses of a day in Syntagma square in Athens and a comment on Greek actuality. Well done!
Monodrome
3rd Athens Biennale censored trailer. The director Giorgos Zois attempted to deliver the theme of the 3rd Biennale ‘Monodrome’ (meaning one-way) in a series of slow-motion images of a forcibly accelerated reality depicting the one-way contemporary condition.
Instinctively and suspiciously the national Greek television judged the content to be against the law that forbids ‘messages that contain elements of violence, or encourage dangerous behaviors, or insult human dignity’ . I guess the daily transmission of aggressive porn-like governmental policies, does not count as an insult to viewers.Via

Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t there
An interesting interpretation of the concept of faith, as a belief that is not based on proof:

Having absolutely no taste is far worse than just having bad taste
Can someone please solve this for me:
How can someone whose whole persona is based on image and aesthetics, live in an apartment like the above?
This is Maddona’s Manhattan apartment as it was featured in Architectural Digest back in the early 1990s.
It looks like it’s inhabited by an affluent yet totally style ignorant 60 year old aunt. I strongly believe that Madonna herself is inhabited by that person too.
Click on images to enlarge them, I posted them small because mediocrity hurts my eyes.

throwable / panoramic
The “Throwable Panoramic Ball Camera,” is designed by Jonas Pfeil as part of his thesis project at the Technical University of Berlin.
It creates spherical panoramas after being thrown into the air.
Umbrella Coat Raincoat
G spot
G spot mouse by Andy Kurovets. It has all the buttons of a usual mouse, plus a secret one under the scroll for extra fun. Eeh sorry, functions.

Can I get an A-Men?
The debut promo for the new season of RuPaul’s Drag Race S04 is out (not as revealing as you might expect) and the good news are that the extravaganza will finally hit the globe on January 2012, w/the same weekly judges Michelle Visage and Santino Rice. Werk!
The Couture Collection
Suites from the Parisian hotel La Maison Champs Elysées, re-designed by the Belgian fashion house Martin Margiela. The designer created 17 hotel suites called the Couture Collection, also a restaurant, a smoking room, a bar, and the reception area of the historical part of the building.
The photos above are from the Curiosity Case Suite (pix 1-4) , a room with black painted walls and black stained parquet oak floor. The following two photos are from the White Cover suite (pix 5+6) , where all objects and furnishings are draped with loose, white covers. And the final three photos are from the Lost Mouldings suites (pix 7+8) and the corridor (pic 9).
