Fashion For A Change
Choose your cause. So, shopping is undeniably a likable pastime for many of us. Whether we are trend followers, setters, or simply individualists, fashion is something that is understood by all to some degree. Fashion is also universal, every country, sect, or individual in the world can participate. One of the best things about fashion then, is its ability to extend ourselves. There is no limit, whether you are traveling around the smallest town in Italy, or Paris the fashion hub, you can find a piece of fashion that fits who you are. Let's talk about a facet of fashion, jewelry. Jewelry is definitely a means of accessory, it is an addition to our personality. But let's face it, at the end of the day jewelry is essentially stone and fashion is only fabric. Have you ever thought about fashion as a vehicle for change? The choices we make as consumers can make a difference. This is how you can get involved. ChooseYourCause.net is a jewelry company that is committed to the idea of fashion for a change in the world. Here is what it does: the company sells its jewelry and at purchase, allows you, the consumer, to choose a charity to donate to. 20% of the proceeds go to causes championed by the Hollywood Foundation which donates money to charities for: Breast Cancer, Better Lives for Children, Autism, and Parkinson's Disease. The main line of jewelry that promotes this cause are their bracelets. There are four different colors for each charity: pink for breast cancer, green for children, red for Autism, and gold for Parkinson's disease. The bracelets are made of cord and each of them contain either silver or gold charms for the charity. They are discreet, yet bear more meaning to the owner. Be a part of making change in the world, by being involved with fashion. It's easy, one click. Make it a fashion that is part of you.

Noooooooooooo
This blender is what we call squirrel nuts! It turns golf balls in to sand sized granules, turns marbles into dust, and even though we hate to say it it can even shred an iPhone. If you're and apple lover like us geeks at JL think twice before watching because this is a bit graphic and sent shivers down our spine.

Baby Making Music
Sebastian Tellier's Album, "Sexuality", is probably some of the best "baby making music we've ever herd. Being produced by Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo of Daft Punk we knew he must be good, I mean come on have a look at the guy and his album cover. Purely amazing. But the guy does actually have some skill and he slows that whole synth-electro scene down to expose us to smooth relaxing beats and woos. With his quiet vocals mixed in babies are surely to start popping out of any woman in close proximity.

More Pools
Here at Jetlag we've been dreaming about floating around a nice lavish body of water with a tropical drink in hand and a pair of Ray Bans over our eyes. When we stumbled into these underwater creations we couldn't help but drift away thinking about the possibilities. We think it is about time we start to build a P-Air shaped pool on the roof of JL and when its done you are all invited to the party.

In light of the new Apple Macbooks and Macbook Pros released yesterday (not going to bother plugging that, cause they will bring probably bring out something new again tomorrow.) this little tool seems to be very handy for the portable computer user. Basically the space station eliminates the frustration of 1 million cords coming out of your laptop and everything else you have pluged in (modem, ipod, scanner, printer, card reader...etc) and essentially turns your laptop into a desktop. Smart, clean, and affordable. Get it here

R-Kelly should stay trapped in the closet
This is definitely R-Kelly's finest hour. Or one and a half hours, the man behind the piss had pieced together a musical masterpiece that makes Johnny look amature in Sweeney Todd. This is my favorite chapter by far, and for good reasons. Watch and be mind boggled.Labels: Midget, Musical, Worst song ever.

Ive seen these guys live a few times and to be brutally honest I've never really love them on stage. I've seen them both smaller and larger crowds and both times they never blew me away. that's not to say I don't absolutely love the music, cause I do. Anyway to the point, Cut Copy are releasing their new album on the 22nd of March, through Aussie hipster label Modular. If your not an Australian you probably wouldn't have heard some of the new stuff that will be on this album, but let me assure you its by far their best stuff yet. The album will be called In Ghost Colours (spelt the proper English way), so get heavily involved because you wont be disappointed. Ive also added a link to a Cut Copy hour long remix that will tide you over.
