Don't you just hate it when your cheese tries to electrocute itself... It's called fried cheese.

ROCKIN' RAY-BAN PRINTS

Ray-Ban recently teamed up with some of the world's best print makers to launch a collection of colorful Rare Prints. These prints bring back a vibrant splash of retro-color that Andy Warhol, Jerry Garcia and the Kool-Aid man would be proud of! Who said Ray-Bans ever went out of style? Think again.

THE BEAST

Is this a tank, a modified BAT MOBILE or a vehicle fit for the President of the United States? Check out the specs!

The Presidential 8-tonne Cadillac has nicknames ranging from, The Stagecoach, the First LIMO & The Beast.

With most of the world's attention on the NATO summit in Portugal on Friday, its main agenda is to promote clean-energy and use of electric cars. The event was however overshadowed by the arrival of the "Obama-Mobile," a gas guzzling Cadillac tank that gets an astonishing 8-miles per gallon. While other Prime Ministers and heads of state arrived in their quiet electric cars, all eyes focused on 'The Beast' and his presidential motorcade as it rumbled to the elite gathering.  Can GM not make 'The FIRST LIMO' a hybrid or does BP have a say in that? Obama loves pistachios in case ya didn't know.

WHITE TRUFFLE

Are you addicted to white truffles?

A bountiful white truffle harvest from Alba, Italy.

Yesterday marked the annual white truffle auction at the castle of Grinzane Cavour, in the Italian region of Piedmont. Most everyone familiar with the boom in popularity of the white truffle of Alba was in attendance. The sale raised a total of 305,000 Euro, with the prized funghi being purchased by Antonio Bertolotto for 100,000 Euro. This is not his first investment of the sacred funghi tartufo, he previously purchased two others for 8,000 Euro. 

STARBUCKS AT SEA

It seems even more impossible to avoid seeing a Starbucks nowadays. Well, Starting December 5th you can get your frappacino or favorite caffeinated beverage on-board Royal Caribbean International's new Allure of the Seas, the world's largest and most innovative cruise ship. The passenger capacity of the ship is over 5,400, not to mention the countless staff waiting for their next caffeine fix. With a single Starbucks, expect hefty lines at the Royal Promenade located at the center of the ship. This marks the first time Starbucks will be available at sea, congrats! What's next, a Starbucks opening on Singapore Airlines long-haul flights? I'll have one GRANDE, ICED, NON-FAT VANILLA LATTE please.

BELLISSIMA!

You may have never heard of Roberta Mancino, but you will never forget her. She has been named the sexiest female in sports by Mens Fitness magazine. The 30-year old Italian skydiving bombshell has taken the dive over 5,000 times. It's not the clothed dives that got their attention, it's the four she did naked that opened their eyes. She explained, " I did a jump for a magazine shoot once and it was very cold. The plane was full of other skydivers and I kept a blanket over me until it was time. It was chilly, but once I jumped it was a nice feeling to have the wind against my body and to not have a jumpsuit or any clothes flapping against me." She has posed for Playboy France and is pretty sexy with her clothes on too. She is the Italian national freestyle champion and the Free Fly Record Holder, and also holds other world records. Forza Italia!

BRIDGING THE GAP

With slowing sales in the United States, one of America's most popular apparel brands -Gap Inc.- continues to make its push toward Asia.

Gap Inc. opened its first Asia flagship store in Singapore  in December 2007 and continues to open outlets throughout portions of Asia. The company eventually plans to open its other brands including, Old Navy and Banana Republic in China. With most of its clothes manufactured in China, it was only a matter of time until Gap Inc. made its debut for the fashionable Chinese consumers.

FREE WI-FI AT 35,000 FEET

Passengers on all US domestic Delta, Virgin America and Air Tran flights between November 20 and January 2, 2011 get free use of Gogo in-flight Wi-Fi. Last year there was also the same promo, but Delta did not have all their planes wireless ready, but this year they do. There is one catch however, you have to use Chrome to log in for free. In a time when US domestic carriers are severely lacking behind other global air carriers, it's nice to see this service offered during the holiday season. Only problem, dealing with those angry folks working for the TSA.

MEDICAL TOURISM

The demand for luxury health-care continues to rise, while hospitals around the globe try to keep pace.

Health is one of the most important components in life. Here we understand that and want to emphasize the necessity of receiving the BEST health-care money can buy. In recent years there has been a shift in the perception of health-care, with many companies offering 'Red Carpet' treatment for affluent patients seeking health-care. From places like Singapore and Bangkok, these companies create a 'rock star' image by placing a 'blindfold' over the eyes of these well-off international patients seeking better treatment. The perception of being whisked away in a stretch limousine from the airport, while accompanied by a medical butler and a bottle of chilled bubbly just isn't "The best health-care money can buy." Sure bragging rights are nice. Boasting to your family and friends that, "I went to Singapore on a Medical Tourism trip and was picked up at the airport by a stretch H2!" On the exterior these frills are nice, but lets get to brass tacks... You want the best treatment for you and your family.

More times than not, these tending physicians are referring to the MAYO CLINIC Website for assistance in treatment and handling each patient. It's absolutely nuts to think these patients are being suckered into a treatment package with all these unnecessary extras when they could use that hard-earned dough and get the BEST health-care money can buy. Ya wanna know bragging rights? "I took two business-class flights to the USA and received amazing treatment at arguably the world's best hospital." Accept nothing less than the BEST for you and your family, otherwise you may just as well roll the dice.

24-HOURS ISN'T ENOUGH

All this talk about beer probably has it running right through you.  There's one locale we can think of with a groovy twang to do all of your business... if you're not at home that is. The Goldman 25hours Hotel Frankfurt is a boutique hotel for the, 'make your own rules' type of traveler. 25h is a member of Design Hotels and has several locations all over the globe. Remember gentlemen, if you shake it more than three times, its considered foul play.

CANNABIS POWER

Cannabis Red Power Beer is smooth, plus its brewed in Germany!
You may have just found your favorite beer!

Sticking with the spirit of Oktoberfest, one of our favorite beers that flies under the radar is produced by Euro Brau in Deutschland. You may not find this quality beer readily available in the US because many frown upon the label alone, but for the most part its widely available at supermarkets throughout Europe. There was a time when a twelve-pack of Cannabis Red Power Beer was a perfect way to spend a Saturday afternoon in the park with friends. It's 8% alcohol content shouldn't fool you, because its smooth and won't weigh you down like many other beers. On your next European travels, bring a few bottles back for your mates to try, they will be most grateful. Enjoy a frosty cold one on your next trip to Europe and make sure you have plenty of pistachios to accompany your frosty brew... a pre-rolled spliff doesn't hurt either. Prost!
