2013 NY Fashion Week: 14 Men's Styles We're Glad Never Got Popular
05 sep 2013 23:39

Mercedes-Benz New York Fashion Week 2013 began this week and that should mean absolutely nothing to anyone reading this website. Here is the basic idea — a bunch of designers you can’t afford show off clothes you’ll never own to a crowd of famous people you’ll never get to meet. Occasionally, there are naked boobs. Instead of showing pictures of the absurd 2014 clothing lines, we went back into the archives to check out the awful styles of the past. Sadly, any of this stuff would work on the runway today. Here are fourteen men’s styles that thankfully never filtered down to your local Target.

Jack Nicholson Announces Retirement at Age 76
05 sep 2013 23:28

We really can’t handle the truth: Hollywood legend Jack Nicholson is retiring from acting. Nicholson, 76, quietly stepped down from a 50-year career. “Jack has — without fanfare — retired,” an insider told Radar Online. The rationale behind his decision has to do with his aging. “There is a simple reason behind his decision — it’s memory loss. Quite frankly, at 76, Jack has memory issues and can no longer remember the lines being asked of him,” the source revealed. “His memory isn’t what it used to be.” Nicholson, who was nominated for a record 12 Academy Awards for acting (winning three), will continue enjoying the spotlight — just not starring in it. “Jack has no intention of retiring from the limelight,” the source said, noting the Oscar winner’s regular courtside Lakers games and Academy Award presentation with First Lady Michelle Obama in February. “He’s not retiring from public life, at all. He just doesn’t want a tribute,” the source said. “He’s happy to tacitly join the retirees club like Sean Connery.” We’ll miss you, Jack!

Oh yeah baby. You KNOW I'll be on that Gaga news.
05 sep 2013 23:26

Lady Gaga will reportedly appear on ‘Saturday Night Live‘ for the third time come this fall, but unlike her past appearances, Mother Monster will be acting as both the host and the musical guest during an episode of the long-running comedy program. This will put Gaga in the same ranks as Justin Timberlake who recently did double duty on the show in one of the better episodes, as well as Justin Bieber, who was reportedly a good sport. A rep for NBC refused to comment on the reported lineup. Gaga has previously acted in small sketches on the show, including a digital short with Timberlake and Andy Samberg and a face off with Madonna as herself. She will also make her acting debut on the big screen next month in the purposeful B-movie ‘Machete Kills.’ She’s not going into this completely blind. Basically, the 39th season of the sketch comedy show is in for an interesting year. Even more so if Lindsay Lohan says yes to hosting for her sixth time.

'Breaking Bad' Best Show Ever, Says Guinness
05 sep 2013 10:52

Walter White, he knows all about your operation, your “TV show.” His partners tell him that you’re producing a series that’s 70% great, if you’re lucky. What he stars on, Breaking Bad, is 99.1% masterpiece. “So?” you might be asking yourself. “So,” Walt responds, “it’s grade-school T-ball versus the New York Yankees, but, like, the good New York Yankees, not the current limping New York Yankees. They’re terrible. What I am is classic Coke.” “Who the hell are you?” all other TV shows ask. “You know exactly who I am. Say my show’s name.” “Do what…? I don’t, I don’t have a damn clue who the hell you are.” “Yeah, you do. I’m the star of the greatest TV show of all-time, according to Guinness World Records.” “Bullsh*t. What about Homeboys in Outer Space?” “SAY. MY. SHOW’S. NAME.” “Breaking Bad.” “You’re goddamn right.”

New Trailer For 'Gravity' Shows Why James Cameron Praised It (VIDEO)
05 sep 2013 10:48

"I had a daughter. A little girl with brown hair. Tell her that I’m not quitting." So says Sandra Bullock while floating in space in the new trailer for Gravity. It’s director Alfonso Cuarón’s first feature film since 2006′s Children Of Men, and the beautiful long shots have totally sold me on this. The first 17 or so minutes of Gravity are one unbroken shot, which may be why other directors are praising it. Guillermo Del Toro said it’s five years ahead of its time. Earlier this week, James Cameron also lauded it in a Variety interview. “I was stunned, absolutely floored. I think it’s the best space photography ever done, I think it’s the best space film ever done, and it’s the movie I’ve been hungry to see for an awful long time,” Cameron said. The new trailer below includes some footage from previous clips, but it also gives us more backstory on Bullock’s character and extra scenes of her and George Clooney trying to save themselves. Warner has made the new trailer available in 2K HD. We recommend checking this out in the highest resolution. We also recommend bringing a change of pants to the theater.

Yahoo!'s New Logo Isn't As Good As Its Fake Ones
05 sep 2013 10:38

In case you’d forgotten, or more likely hadn’t noticed, Yahoo! is rolling out a new logo today, after spending thirty days showing off “old” logos. Yes, they’ve wanted us to get excited over typefaces, and I write “us” because I’ve had a Yahoo! email address for more than a decade now. And above is the end result. First of all, it is kind of condescending to try and get us hyped up over a logo. “Here, get excited about a signifier for a brand that few people will actually care about, and as a brand, barely even qualifies as a logo!” Secondly, a month of demanding attention for this? This has an announcement video, because of course it does.

Here's Robert Pattinson's Uncensored Dior Homme Ad [VIDEOS]
03 sep 2013 09:38

It’s finally here … Kinda. Dior has now shared more than mere stills or teasers of Robert Pattinson‘s Dior Homme fragrance ad campaign by giving us several behind the scenes video as well as an uncensored director’s cut. In it, we learn that if you use Dior Homme you too will be able to land a supermodel like Camille Rowe and will therefore spend your time macking it to her, standing around while brooding on top of buildings and crashing parties for foreign dignitaries. Possibly. It’s kind of unclear in perfume commercials exactly what’s happening. Directed by Romain Gavras and featuring Led Zeppelin‘s ‘Whole Lotta Love,’ you can check out the entire uncensored ad above. Side note: even though it’s labeled “uncensored,” it’s not that scandalous, unless it’s set in the town of ‘Footloose’ where dancing and suggestively cuddling is bad. As for behind the scene shots and actual uncensored clips? You can check out those below.

Amazon Enables 1-Click Within All Your Android Apps
28 aug 2013 17:13

In-app purchases are a pretty big deal to developers; there’s a reason the “top grossing” apps in the Android store are mostly free. Now Amazon is trying to extend that logic to buying… well, anything you see inside an app. Amazon calls it the “Mobile Associates API”, and essentially, it means you can make anything in an app an ad for it on Amazon. And it’s not necessarily a bad deal for developers, either: "The Mobile Associates API allows developers to sell real products from the millions of items at Amazon, whether physical or digital, from inside their apps or games while earning up to 6% in advertising fees from those purchases. The Mobile Associates API is an extension of Amazon Associates, our successful web-based affiliate program created in 1996, paying advertising fees to hundreds of thousands of affiliates worldwide." 6% may not sound like much, but consider that some apps can be seen by millions of people in a given day. 1% of those buying could put a lot of cash in the pockets of developers, and you have to admit, being able to click a link to buy a book is a lot less annoying than having to hit up your friends on Facebook for in-game gold. The ultimate goal, of course, is to crush all retailers under Amazon’s heel as it builds a massive fulfillment network that makes consumer gratification instant and Jeff Bezos can afford his own planet. But, hey, it’s convenient!

The Onion Trolls CNN Hard Over Miley Cyrus; CNN Editor Responds

Satirical publication The Onion published a satirical article about CNN.com’s very real head story about Miley Cyrus at last night’s VMAs, entitled “Miley Cyrus Tweks, Stuns VMAs Crowd.” Alone, this would have been funny enough, but The Onion attributed the satirical article to CNN.com’s very real Meredith Artley.

Hugh Laurie's Love Letter To Los Angeles
27 aug 2013 21:39

I present this — Hugh Laurie’s love letter to Los Angeles — to you guys today because I’ve never really been a big fan of LA. It’s always been one of those places I’ve been fine with to visit but would never want to live. But I have to say, Laurie’s pro-LA argument is quite persuasive. I’ve actually come to think that I wouldn’t want to kill myself or someone else if I had to live there.

Mississippi Residents Love Porn More Than You
27 aug 2013 21:35

There are two main insights to be enlightened by from PornHub’s data dump that’s now steaming up the Internet like some sort of steamer, perhaps in Cleveland. Fact the first: America really loves “creampies,” “college,” “teens,” and “compilations.” Those four pornographical categories are the top-searched “adult-based terms” for over 30 states in AMERICA, with the occasional outlier of “anita queen” in Nevada and “smoking” in Wyoming. Fact the second: Mississippi’s love of porn is far greater than your state’s.

Mitch Hurwitz Confirms Arrested Development Movie In The Works
27 aug 2013 21:19

Exactly a month ago Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz and Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos confirmed that Arrested Development would return in some form or another. And in the short amount of time since Mitch Hurwitz has apparently gotten hard to work. He’s just checked in with Rolling Stone to confirm that the next installment is in fact — in his mind anyway — a movie. Mitch Hurwitz has good news for Arrested Development fans. “I’m working on the movie right now,” the show’s creator tells Rolling Stone. “I can’t get into much more detail because I don’t want to scare anybody off. I don’t want to be presumptuous about it. I don’t own the property outright – it’s a 20th Century Fox property. But everybody seems really into it and really eager to make a movie.” OK, so it’s not set in stone, but I’ve gotta believe that if this is the direction Hurwitz wants to take the Bluths no one is going to stand in his way. He also must have gotten some form of a go ahead if he’s already working on the feature film version. And since we already knew Arrested Development would be back in some form or another the movie news is super swell and all but what I found most interesting came at the end of the interview…

The mayor of Birmingham, William Bell, noted a long debris field, with the airframe broken up into several parts, and that there were no storms in the area. AL.com reports that authorities tell them that no distress calls were made to the tower prior to the crash.

11-Year-Old Boy Raises $16,000 for Tornado Victims Mowing Lawns
13 aug 2013 15:30

Dyllon Orthman cut a lot of green to raise a lot of green. The 11-year-old Dalhart, Texas boy cut lawns to raise $16,000 for victims of this year’s tornado in Moore, Oklahoma. Dyllon cut almost 90 lawns in a two-month period and said “If a little boy can help, then anyone can help.” The money was given to the Hudson family, whose home was ruined in the tornado. Ursula Hudson lived in the house with her six kids and says she’s blown away by what Dyllon accomplished, adding, “How does one little boy accomplish so much and contact so many people? How does he grow such an amount for us, when he didn’t even know us to begin with?” Proof that heroes come in many sizes.

'Breaking Bad' Ratings: Through The Roof
12 aug 2013 20:08

So there’s this show…oh, what’s it called again…it’s final season kicked off last night…oh dammit what’s it called again…oh yeah, Breaking Bad. Well, a lot of people watched it last night — double than the show’s previous high — which I’m guessing means a lot of people did some binge-watching via DVDs, Netflix etc. during Breaking Bad‘s hiatus, adding more fans to its roster. Reports the Hollywood Reporter: "Breaking Bad surged to a series record on Sunday night, bringing in 5.9 million viewers in its first airing — nearly doubling its previous high…The first half of Breaking Bad’s final season opened with 2.9 million viewers last July, making for a 102 percent gain, year over year. A record at the time, the series eclipsed the haul several episodes later with 3 million viewers tuning into the penultimate episode before the show’s break." Breaking Bad also surged in adults 18-49, jumping 87 percent from last summer’s season premiere with 3.6 million viewers in the demo. Adults 25-54 also saw gains, rising 81 percent to 3.3 million.

Lake Bell Is Naked On The New Cover Of New York Magazine

There was a nude scene featuring Lake Bell in How to Make It In America that rates as one of my favorite nude scenes of all time, mainly because it featured Lake Bell nude. I recall her breasts being particularly glorious, and I’m not even really a boob guy. That said, I subscribe to New York magazine and am very much looking forward to getting this week’s issue in the mail, as it features Lake Bell nude on the cover. It’s going to look great sitting on my coffee table for the rest of my life. Here’s the full, mildly NSFW cover…

You Can Rent Basquiat's Former NYC Loft For $650 Per Night On AirBnB

Twenty-five years ago today, Jean-Michel Basquiat died of a heroin overdose at the age of 27 in New York. If you’re feeling overcome with Basquiat nostalgia because of this, you should maybe consider renting his former loft in Soho for a spell. The place — which pre-fame Madonna reportedly stayed in when Basquiat traveled — is currently listed on AirBnB, after all. In addition to the one up top, here are a few other pics of the place…

'World War Z' Is Now Brad Pitt's Highest Grossing Film Of All-Time
12 aug 2013 20:04

When all is said and done for movies in 2013, and the Academy has handed out every last gold-covered chocolate statue for the Best Picture and Best Actor and everyone has clapped the loudest for German actor Dieter Pfaff during the In Memoriam segment, perhaps the biggest achievement of this year will have been the box office success of World War Z. In the last week or so, the Brad Pitt zombie action film managed to crack the $500 million mark worldwide, and that’s notable not just because this movie seemed like a textbook failure from Day One, but also because it’s the first Brad Pitt film to ever do that. Prior to WWZ, Pitt’s highest grossing film worldwide was the 2004 Ancient Greece war epic Troy ($497 million), while his biggest domestic box office performance was the 2005 action comedy Mr. & Mrs. Smith, which hauled in $186 million in the U.S. and $478 million globally. Smith was also Pitt’s biggest box office opening, as people shelled out $50 million to see him star opposite the woman that stole him away from Jennifer Aniston, which was, of course, the most important story of 2005 and perhaps the entire 00s. And now it’s World War Z, the movie that cause countless fanboys and especially me freak out because it wasn’t staying true to the Max Brooks book that we all love so much, that has set the bar the highest for Pitt, with its $66 million opening weekend, $197 million domestic and $502 million worldwide grosses. I wonder what Pitt thinks about all of that…

Lady Gaga Releases 'Applause' Single Early [AUDIO]

Lady Gaga is not about to be one-upped by Katy Perry. The two pop stars were both victims of hackers and leakers who released their highly anticipated music to the masses early, so Gaga responded to the hype by sharing her song in full on her own to her beloved Little Monsters — who were trying to steal the thunder from Perry’s ‘Roar’ as best they could. ‘Applause’ was originally slated for an Aug. 19 release, which would make it closer to the Nov. 11 drop date of ‘ARTPOP.’ Gaga posted a flurry of tweets for what she called an “emergency” in support of ‘Applause.’

Tito Ortiz Showed Up On Last Night's Impact Wrestling

If there are two thing TNA Impact Wrestling loves, they’re: 1. Unnecessary mysteries 2. Past-their-expiration-date MMA guys Yesterday it was announced that UFC legend Tito Ortiz would be coming out of retirement to face Quinton “Rampage” Jackson at Bellator’s first pay-per-view event. Bellator’s TV show is “sister shows” with pro wrestling also-ran Impact Wrestling. When Rampage signed with Bellator he was on Impact within the week, so it makes sense that Tito would be announced for a fight and also show up there. Thank goodness Impact had just begun running a story about a mysterious bald man threatening to beat up wrestlers from the shadows! Yes, the August 1 Warnings mystery man who’d been threatening the wrestling organization for weeks turned out to be Tito Ortiz, and if the crowd reaction to Ortiz’s appearance is any indication, it was well worth the money. And by “well worth the money” I mean “thank goodness they fired the pregnant lady and all the injured wrestlers to make cap room for an old MMA guy who hasn’t fought since 2011 and only won one out of his last nine fights.” Awkward and embarrassing all around. Here’s the clip.

VIDEO: Bruce Willis's Awkward Interview for Red 2 on British Radio
07 aug 2013 00:58

In the age of AMAs and live threads and long-form podcast interviews, the movie press tour is such a contrived anachronism that I’m surprised testy interviews like this don’t happen more often. You can almost feel the actors going “really? we’re still doing these?” Here, Jamie Edwards, an entertainment correspondent for London radio station Magic 105.4, tried his damnedest to squeeze some enthusiasm out of crotchedy old Bruce Willis, who seems like he just awoke from hibernation. Edwards’ enthusiasm seemed to only make Willis more angry, like bonking a bear on the nose with a tree branch. Willis seems annoyed solely because Edwards seems so happy to be there. God, I love it when older dudes completely stop giving a sh*t.

MUSIC NEWS! Drake Brings Kanye West On Stage At OVO Fest
06 aug 2013 00:00

Drake and Kanye West have had a pretty cold relationship over the last few years…bordering on an under-the-radar feud. Part of the reason is their massive egos, but the two rappers just couldn’t seem to get on the same page. They’d throw shots at each other (Kanye accusing Drake’s producer of jocking his styles) or passive aggressive little one-ups (Drake being seen hanging out with Amber Rose), but it now seems to be over. As part of Drake’s massive OVO Fest show in Canada, he brought out everyone from TLC to Diddy and Mase. But the biggest surprise came when Kanye West came out and performed “New Slaves.” Then the bromance went into full effect with each rapper praising the other to the extreme. Kanye said he and Jay DASH Z wouldn’t have made Watch The Throne if not for Drake’s music putting pressure on them to make a classic. Then Drake said he only raps because Kanye inspired him. If you’re looking for videos, our guy Nigel over at Real Talk NY will have them up shortly since he was in attendance. All in all, it looks like OVO Fest is the rap show to be at from now on. Who saw that coming?

NEWS! Christian Television Network Puppeteer Arrested For Kidnapping

Creepy puppeteer? Check. Creepy Christian puppeteer? Check. Creepy Christian puppeteer who lived alone? Check. Creepy Christian puppeteer who lived alone and served pizzas to the kids in his neighborhood? Check. Creepy Christian puppeteer who lived alone and served pizzas to the kids in his neighborhood and was arrested for, according to the Tampa Bay Times, “conspiring to kidnap a child and possession of child pornography”? Check. Florida, you done it again. “I imagine him wiggling and then going still,” [Ronald William] Brown told an associate in an Internet chat session, describing his plot to kill and cannibalize a boy at Gulf Coast Church. On Friday, Brown was arrested on charges of conspiring to kidnap a child and possession of child pornography and booked into the Pinellas County Jail. U.S. Department of Homeland Security agents who searched his home found lewd images of children bound and gagged, a flier for a missing child and “images of children that appear to be deceased.” According to the affidavit supporting the criminal complaint, Brown told agents that he and Kansas resident Michael Arnett, another alleged child cannibalism enthusiast, “did discuss killing, dismembering and eating” a specific boy at Gulf Coast Church. However, Brown said “it was just a fantasy and he could never and would never hurt anyone.” Brown worked for years for the Christian Television Network in Largo, the state’s oldest Christian broadcasting station. He performed with puppets on a Captain Kangaroo-style show called Joy Junction. In one episode, a video excerpt of which is available online, he operates a puppet that talks disdainfully about how some bad kids tried to show him pornography. (Via) I’d bet my life savings that Brown owns at least three helium tanks, for “balloon animals…yeah….”

CELEBS! Kate Hudson and Nephews Appear in New Ann Taylor Ad Campaign

Ann Taylor is a career woman’s fashion brand, but Kate Hudson is helping to inject a little youth and liveliness into its buttoned up and, well, tailored image with her Fall/Winter 2013 ad campaign. The bubbly blonde actress is doing so with her gorgeous smile, her beachy waves, her rich Bordeaux look lipstick, her killer body and her two young nephews. Of the campaign, K. Hud — who has been with the brand since its Spring 2012 line — said, “It’s a little bit about how I live and a lot about how women live every day. As working moms, we’re all just figuring it out as we go, right? But if I were to offer my advice, I’d say, Try to be present. When you’re at your job, be 100 percent committed to it and do the very best you can. And when you go home at night, leave all the work behind and show up completely for your family. That’s the best part of your day, so really be there.”

It’s a bit like you’re packing the bear a lunch. Or in this case, packing the bear a fridge. The video above from a Colorado Springs restaurant shows a bear deciding that, screw it, he’s gonna take the whole thing. Needless to say, there’s also a GIF:

Robin Thicke And The Roots Perform 'Blurred Lines' On Fallon
02 aug 2013 20:48

“Blurred Lines” is the hottest song in the galaxy. By far. The song, though, is only made better when the best band in the world backs him. And it’s even better if the aforementioned best band in the world is using kid’s instruments to do it. Fallon had an unconventional open to his show by having Thicke perform his hit with The Roots using elementary school instruments. I’m starting to think I like this version of the song better than the original. Add in Black Thought spitting a 16 and we have magic on our hands. Now excuse me while I hum this song for the rest of the day.

“Blurred Lines” is the hottest song in the galaxy. By far. The song, though, is only made better when the best band in the world backs him.

HOT NEWS! Ben & Jerry's Sued A Porn Studio Over Trademark Infringement
31 jul 2013 16:31

As a testament to just how deep the well of porn parody goes, the folks at Ben & Jerry’s recently had to file a lawsuit against North Hollywood adult film company Caballero Video because of a new series of adult films with names based on the iconic ice cream company’s flavors. The brass at Caballero, AKA Rodax Distributors Inc., agreed to a settlement with Ben & Jerry’s and agreed to not release any films under the previously planned and admittedly delicious “Ben & Cherry’s” titles. According to the Chicago Tribune, this was all about protecting the brand name and stopping someone from besmirching a wholesome company’s fine image. Ben & Jerry’s had said that Caballero didn’t have permission to reference Ben & Jerry’s or its trademarked ice cream flavors, which have names that the filmmakers evidently found to be a creative goldmine. Ben & Jerry’s flavor names include “Banana Split,” “Cherry Garcia” and “Everything But the…” — all of which became fodder for X-rated fare in Caballero’s hands. Caballero also used packaging that resembled Ben & Jerry’s well-known clouds and cows imagery.

Fox News Pats Itself On The Back For Its Infamous Reza Aslan Interview
31 jul 2013 13:10

Days have passed since Fox News aired arguably the single most stupid interview the “fair and balanced” cable news network has ever run without bothering to acknowledge that it ever happened. As you’ve probably heard by now, Fox weekend host Lauren Green asked scholar Reza Aslan, the author of Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth, “You’re a Muslim, so why did you write a book about the founder of Christianity?” But today the network finally acknowledged it, in typical Fox News fashion no less: they played the “the liberal media is out to get us” card by trotting out conservative media critic Brent Bozell of the Media Research Center, who accused Aslan of not being “a very good Muslim” — for writing a book about Jesus, you see — and called Aslan’s book a “very very biased and very very one-sided book. “It was the exact correct question that needed to be asked,” Bozell said. “She had every right to ask him, ‘Do you have a bias? Are you being influenced by your faith to write what you’re writing?’ He should have said, first and foremost, said, ‘Yes I am.’ To deny it shows the aloof arrogance of ‘How dare she even ask that question?’” I would bet good money Brent Bozell hasn’t even read Aslan’s book.

So, were you wondering how, precisely, Booker DeWitt and Elizabeth of BioShock Infinite fit into the timeline of BioShock? Did “a man, a city and a lighthouse” seem a bit thin? Turns out we’ve got an answer: Welcome back to Rapture… right before the fall, in BioShock Infinite: Burial At Sea. Here’s the trailer for the first part of this two-part adventure:

Braless Report Shea Allen Fired For Blog
31 jul 2013 11:00

There’s a lot going on in that headline, and I didn’t even mention the arrest yet, so let’s break it down. 1. Shea Allen is a special investigations reporter for the Huntsville, Alabama-based ABC affiliate WAAY-TV, or at least she was, before she was fired because of something she posted on her personal blog. 2. That something: the Lindsay Lohan-less “Confessions of a Red Headed Reporter,” including, “I’ve gone bra-less during a live broadcast and no one was the wiser,” “I’ve mastered the ability to contort my body into a position that makes me appear much skinner in front of the camera than I actually am,” and my personal favorite, “I’m frightened of old people and I refuse to do stories involving them or the places they reside.” I’ve often said that WAAY-TV has been sorely lacking in segments about the Old Country Buffet. 3. Allen deleted the post once it went viral, but it’s back up. “This post was taken down because I was momentarily misguided about who I am and what I stand for,” she wrote. “To clarify, I make no apologies for the following re-post. It’s funny, satirical, and will likely offend some of the more conservative folks. But it isn’t fake and its a genuine look into my slightly twisted psyche.” Uh-huh. I bet she really likes Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, too. 4. Allen has since tweeted that she was “terminated without cause,” but today came reports, from an ex-co-worker via Gawker, that she was a “ticking time bomb for termination.” Allen was arrested in 2012, suspended for saying “f*ck” on the air, and “allegedly followed that up with another warning for running a news package ‘that contained profanity and racial slurs.’” Man, I liked her, right up to the “racial slurs” part. The moral of the story here: all reporters should be Karl Stefanovic. Know what I mean?

Justin Timberlake’s New Video Is An Ode To The yet-to-be-invented NYC
30 jul 2013 17:25

New York City is a concrete bunghole where dreams are made up and there’s nothing you can do for us normal people, but for Justin Timberlake, it’s pretty darn awesome. In the music video for “Take Back the Night,” the first single from the second installment of his 20/20 Experience, Timberlake hangs around Yankee Stadium and the coolest looking nightclubs in Chinatown that don’t exist. Believe me, I’ve looked, and unless a menagerie of cats eating a pile of fish guts in a back alley counts as a discothèque, they ain’t there (except for Stefon).

Making a Stunning, Glow-in-the-Dark Fountain Is Surprisingly Simple
30 jul 2013 16:39

Bioluminescence is awesome. Essentially the production of light by a living organism, e.g. fireflies, certain types of jellyfish, etc—but it doesn't just occur in animals. There's even some plant life that has the potential to give off that lovely, ethereal glow. And as Mark Rober shows us in the video above, you can even harness that power to become your very own natural, eerie, and totally beautiful light source. Because fortunately for us, bioluminescent sea algae is perfect for our purposes and just happens to be for sale as a water mixture on our good ol' friend, the internet.

30 jul 2013 11:03

Yesterday, Google put out a lot of new updates and technology, but the show-stealer was the Chromecast, a $35 dongle that slots into any HDMI port and essentially streams any video you can think of: If it plays in a Chrome browser, it’ll play on Chromecast. But what makes Chrome different, and will it fit all your needs? Here’s how Chromecast compares to three other popular solutions.
