Our boy Eric Lowry from Royal Oak has been creating custom kicks since high school. He was recently featured on Red Bull's featured artist page!
Via Red Bull, "Detroit artist, skateboarder and sneakerhead Eric "El Cappy" Lowry has built a worldwide following out of his passion for custom kicks. His designs are exclusive one-offs that challenge the basic offerings currently on the market. See more of his work on his site.
El Cappy is also a guest judge for Red Bull Rubber & Sole, an innovative sneaker design contest happening in Detroit on November 30."
Very nice! Keep up the dope work.

Toilet Soccer Goalie
Via: Spoon&Tamango
Do you think you have what it takes to score a goal on a shitter? Japanese toilet maker TOTO has devised a toilet that can block shots by som of the greatest players in the world. How does it work? Two high speed cameras capture and analyze the trajectory of an incoming shot and predict the final location of a ball in just 0.1 seconds. The toilet then adjusts its position and shoots another ball at the incoming projectile to deflect the shot. Amazing!
Check out the video below:

The Athlete Machine
Via Redbull, "Derived from the German adjective Klug (meaning "clever"), Red Bull Kluge combines complex machinery patched together with the energy and prowess of world-class athletes, to see what happens when physics gets physical."
These athletes have to execute their tricks perfectly for this Kluge to work....crazy!

Not too shabby! And don't forget about the removable, two-piece, 13-pound, carbon fiber top for all you rappers out there! I think this is what Borat meant by a car with a Pussy Magnet.
B.o.B. - Fuck Em We Ball [Artwork]

Here it is, B.o.B.'s artwork to his new mixtape Fuck Em We Ball, set to release on November 15th. One of the things I emulate B.o.B. for is his vast versitility, he can go in on almost any type of song and I love that. I guess I'm not the only one in the mood to go hard lately, I don't expect to hear many songs for the ladies on this one... #wheremymoney

Via: Yahoo!
Who is the most talented football player in the game? Is it Adrian Peterson or Marshawn Lynch? No. It's Sam "Sweet Feet" Gordon, the 9-year-old female tailback who torches the boys in their own game. That's right, Sam Gordon is a talented young girl who plays in the boys football league and not only is she doing well, she is straight dominating.
In her first season playing tackle football Sam racked up 25 touchdowns, 1911 yards (with a 8.2 yard per carry), and 65 tackles on defense. Her main weapon: speed.
Check out her highlight reel below and prepare to be amazed!

ECAL Rocking Knit Chair
via. LikeCool
#Swere #Swag #SoSweet This Chair is off the meat rack! The "Rocking Knit" is a crazy cool invention from the students at University of Art and Design Lausannne Danien Ludi and Colin Pellex and I am impressed with there innovation and out of the box creativity! The chair actually knits a winter hat as you rock with no exertion whatsoever. I would question the comfort and I would attempt to add a reclining feature myself, but seriously, I'm sold! After I sign my first record deal I'm buying one of these bad boys for my loft. Great conversation starter!

"I Still Love NY" Hurricane Relief T-Shirt
"Sebastian Errazuriz’s studio was paralyzed after the hurricane. Unable to work and tired of watching the horrible disaster unfold on the news, Errazuriz decided to design something to help raise much-needed relief funds. This idea occurred to him after seeing the water line marked on the walls of the flooded galleries in New York’s Chelsea art district."
100% of the profit goes to Hurricane Sandy relief programs.
If you have it in your budget, this would be a great purchase that would help a lot of people in need. My brother lives in Queens and has see a lot of the damage first-hand. Not only is this a great shirt for a great cause, but these are limited edition!
Order yours HERE.

Yellow Tape [feat. Lil Wayne, A$AP Rocky & French Montana]
Here we go, Fat Joe doing his thing again on this one!
The beat is crack, I definitely can see it being a good club song. Maybe I'm overly bias, but my only criticism is it feels like these guys are imitating a little on this one.. more specifically, this sound like they are coping a little style from my boy Wiz Khalifa and our Mid West hip-hop. I guess even trend setters can be influenced...

Swifty One Scooter
I'm usually bikes over scooters all day but for anyone traveling shorter distances where bike space is an issue, this bad boys' for you! Trendy and stylish with dozens of color customizations and some small convenience's like a real front brake and the added option of folding the scooter completely flat and I'm seriously sold.
Of course for all this coolness you're going to have to pay a bit more. Coming in around $640 it might be hard for most Michiganders to justify this over a bike of a similar price, but I still think it's a blog-worthy item. Check her out and order yours HERE.

My Thoughts: November Vibes
It's only November 2nd and I already feel good! I can feel a very productive, focused month on it's way... Great vibes!
No matter what your path is, make it a point to make this November more significant in some way than any previous months this year.
Challenge yourself.
And remember; Working hard means playing hard... It's Central/Western Weekend in Mt. Pleasant, and on the east side of the state we are throwing a party tonight! Great start to a great month!
Let's get it Detroit!

Kansas DB Intercepts a Snap
Yes, you read that right...
Dodge City [Kansas] High wide receiver and defensive back Immanuel Galloway was blitzing the opposing teams's quarterback when he saw a botched snap fly high into the air. He grabbed the loose ball out of the air and scrambled to the end zone for one of the most bizarre touchdowns of the century.

Quote of the Day: Kasimir Malevich
 |
| Black Square, 1915, Oil on Canvas by Malevich |
Kasimir Malevich is a Russian artist who has a very interesting outlook on life. In the excerpt below he describes his idea of how everyone plays a role in life and we get so carried away with our roles that we never have the opportunity to explore our true nonobjective self.
"A bishop is nothing but an actor who seeks with words and gestures, on an appropriately "dressed" stage, to convey a religious feeling, or rather the reflection of a feeling in religious form.
The office clerk, the blacksmith, the soldier, the accountant, the general...these are all characters out of one stage play or another, portrayed by various people, who become so carried away that they confuse the play and their parts in it with life itself.
We almost never get to see the actual human face and if we ask someone who he is, he answers, "an engineer," "a farmer," etc., or, in other words, he gives the title of the role played by him in one or another effective drama."
- KASIMIR MALEVICH, “NON-OBJECTIVE ART AND SUPREMATISM” (1919)
