Kits and cuts and kegels for dudes.

THE BEAUTY OF THE PROCESS:

One of my favorite visual artists in America forwarded this lovely video our way. It shows how a NOMOS Glash¼tte is made. WANT.

CUTTING THE CABLE: Without actually cutting the cable. In other words, there are secret menus for your small screen viewing pleasure.

CUTTING SOMETHING ELSE ENTIRELY: Consider this a Dossier update. Also, consider yourself warned. If you’re squeamish about terrible-not-at-all-pleasant things happening to your best little buddy, don’t click here.

THE CRUELEST CUT: The lowly male octopus. Sorry dude.

THERE MIGHT BE A REASON…your cat is an entitled arrogant master of your domain. SCIENCE! 

AND A ONE AND A TWO…snap to it fellas.

GOOD NEWS ON THE Z’S FRONT: You might have just gained one hour of time in front of the tube.

COMMONWEALTH GAMES: The bad, the bad, and the ugly.

 

First, for those readers who do not live under Her Majesty’s , a little background.  This year there seems to be a great deal of buzz surrounding the uniforms Scotland and Australia have recently unveiled. Unfortunately, it has not been the good kind of buzz. Nope, not at all. At least the Scots can take comfort in their totally bitchin’ mascot, right? Big thanks to Dappered contributer Chris for the tip. He’s currently living in Glasgow. Near a stationery version of “Clyde“.

WORD: I’m just going to leave this right here.

TO OUR CALIFORNIA BRETHREN: You have been warned. Also, dayum.

TO YOUR HEALTH!

GIGGLES VIA GEOGRAPHY: Why yes, I do have the maturity of a teen boy.

OFFERED WITHOUT COMMENT: Your scientific abstract of the week.

VACATION PLANS: The ultimate TV binge party.

HERE’S LOOKING AT YOU KID:

This is a juvenile live bay scallop and those bright blue spheres are eyes…nearly 100 of them. 

SCHEISSE: Perhaps their legendary engineering can make things right?

SCHEISSE: Number 2.

CORRECT ME IF I’M WRONG…but if this is what it takes to have affordable housing, something is terribly wrong with our society. Mostly. More or less.

ONCE UPON A TIME:

BUYER BEWARE: You very well might end up in the middle of the next financial bubble.

OUCH OUCH AND OUCH: When things go horribly wrong. Numbers two, eight and nine seem especially nasty. Numbers three and six are all time favorites.

MARES EAT OATS…and occasionally juice it up. This is a problem when you are owned by QE2.
