As if I need another reason to get personal with the Pacific or get cozy with the Cordillera’s… We all know a good GoPro, but say hello to the the world’s only swim/ski/snowboard masks with integrated waterproof digital and video camera. You know, so your hands (and forehead) can be up to more important things. For the water babies, the Scuba Series HD 8.0MP camera can operate to a depth of 15ft/5m, making it ideal for use when snorkeling or in swimming pools. The goggle lenses are made of tempered glass and have integrated crosshairs that help you to line up shots.
The Impact Series features a 136 degree (full field of view) wide angle lens with Line of Sight™ video capture to record all the action while riding motocross, ATV, or downhill biking, while The Liquid Image Summit Series HD Snow Goggle has an integrated True POV HD Video camera and the ability to capture audio… oh you screaming hell yeah. Turn the Camera on, and choose a mode (video or picture) with the upper button. Simply press the shutter button to record pictures or videos. An LED inside the mask tells you if you are in still image or video mode. Downloading is as easy as plugging in the mask to your PCs or Macs USB port (USB cable included). The built-in 16 MB memory can store up to 27 high resolution pictures or up to 52 seconds of video. A microSD card slot allows you to expand memory up to 32GB for additional pictures or videos.
Note: Hot motorcross man not included.
Hells. Yeah.

“Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life - and travel - leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks - on your body or on your heart - are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.” — Anthony Bourdain (via travelchannel)

Seriously, no seriously, have staggered boxes ever been so beautiful? On a secluded hill in the wine-growing region of Valle de Guadalupe, these luxury cabins bring guests into direct contact with nature. Blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscape, the mountain views and wine-growing soils are the perfect place to post up. It’s as isolated as owners Carlos Couturier and Moisés Micha planned it to be. Situated just one and a half hours from San Diego, California… did you hear that? I said get in your car.
Goodnight Moon.

Taking adventure capitalism to a whole new level are we? James Cameron, Larry Page and other big-wigs are getting into the asteroid mining game… via nationalpost
A cryptic press release issued last week suggested a blockbuster team of investors — including Google Inc. co-founder Larry Page and Canadian film maker James Cameron — is set to back a space exploration venture that could have plans to mine asteroids.
The release contained few details of the team’s plans but suggested more would be revealed Tuesday morning during a news conference at Seattle’s Museum of Flight.
“The company will overlay two critical sectors — space exploration and natural resources — to add trillions of dollars to the global GDP,” the release said, adding that the startup would “create a new industry and new definition of ‘natural resources.’” (Photo: NASA/JPL-Caltech/Reuters)
