If you are a fan of country music, you would know about Brooks & Dunn and you might have well appreciated their 20 year partnership which is soon going to end in 2010. They were sponsored for about 3 years by Tundra and Toyota teamed up with B.A.D. Company in order to build the Midnight Rider Tundra Tailgater.

The truck is an ode to country lifestyle, rodeos and the amazing music that the genre has given to people. It even comes with a Grill N Chill so that you could just pull out and cook. The beverage tap makes sure you get your share of beer enough. The ice chest and the infrared barbecue make your trucking experience a complete country experience.

It also comes with a 42 inch TV, dual subwoofer, amplifiers and etc to pump up the bass. You could have your own country party in the country! The truck comes with silver door handles in country style, Brooks & Dunn custom license plate, black leather seats and many more cool things such as that. There is no information about the price but I am sure it is going to be on the higher side.

When it is summer it is common to see people using a lot of ACs in order to keep themselves cool. While doing so, they may realize that they are running up huge bills of electricity and also leaving a huge carbon print behind them.

Thus, the Briz Solar powered Air-Conditioner uses water as a coolant and the water mist is used to humidify and cool the room in an easy and natural method. However, unfortunately for designers Nari Kim and Pullip Lim, the water based air conditioners are used widely in New Delhi already. Most people who cannot afford to use electrical air conditioners get a water based air conditioner.

Moreover, these water based air-conditioners that work on a similar technique do not necessarily work as efficiently as an electric one would. If Briz works better than the ones I have seen in New Delhi, I would say it is a great idea. Otherwise, it is neither a novel concept nor something that is good enough to be used. Of course, the pictures seem to reveal that the Briz would look much better than the ugly and bulky ones that are found in India.

Imagine yourself in a flight, on the way to your dream destination. You might certainly be looking forward to the holiday and the expectation of making new friends in a different country. however, the long flight will actually not only tire you but will end up boring you so much that by the time you land, you would be in no position to enjoy your holiday.

What you could actually do is pep yourself up with some cool music playing from your music player. If you were looking for some cool headphones, you could try the Jabra Stone which costs $130, and is worth every penny you would spend on it. It comes with an amazing style and shape, and it fits against your ear in a snug manner and you could fit it inside the charger to create a stone like shape.

The Jabra Stone also comes with Noise Blackoput Extreme technology thanks to which you can avoid the rumbling sound heard during flights. The soft rubber padding increases your comfort and the touch controls make increasing or decreasing volume really easy. I would say, get this pair of heaphones whether you travel or not.

The Mustang is an all American car that has been made famous by Ford. The car almost represents the automobile culture of the people from the other side of the Atlantic. It is known for its compact nature and the speed which it delivers.

Even after many decades of its launch, people are still designing cars that resemble the Mustang in some way or the other. Here is a cool and luxurious conceptual car by Mustang-experts over at Saleen. The S281 comes with an amazing body and the deep red colour only makes it irresistible. If you were to take on the highways with a car that is definitively powerful yet compact, you would choose this amazing S281 Mustang.

Unfortunately, it is still a concept and it might take a while for us to know if this car is ever going to hit the markets. Meanwhile, you could try and get a Mustang for yourself and take a drive along the highways, and who knows! You just might be able to purchase the Mustang S281 by Saleen when you return from your road trip! I would so love to get this car for myself.

If you were looking for a cool concept car, look no further. I just came across this wonderful and almost futuristic TVR Artemis which has been designed by Niels Van Roij. It is named after the Greek goddess of Hunting and the car’s body is made of high quality engineering while a down force is given thanks to the under hood spoiler system.

The very same system also helps to cool down the car. The car is extremely lightweight and the slits on the body of the car are illuminated by LEDs at night. This allows approaching cars to identify the Artemis from a distance and save the occupants from disastrous car crashes.

The wheels have a rather strange design and thanks to which the car also can move along with less friction. It has a retro sci-fi look but in my opinion the car would not make it to the mass market. The reason for this is that most people would not like to drive anything that is extremely futuristic, no matter what. There is no information about its price or availability as it is still in the conceptual stage.

If you did not know, water when it comes into contact with plastic, can have a disastrous effect on your health. Moreover, plastic is never a nice thing to be around and the more we get rid of it the better it is for the well being of our planet and our own health.

Aquaovo Ovopur is an amazing design which aims to reduce plastic use and also plastic contact with water. It is made from porcelain that is free of chemicals only the filtration cartridge and silicone gaskets. The egg shaped water filtering system has been awarded many awards and looks really sleek. The Ovopur water filter was even awarded the Best of the Year 2009 kitchen appliance by Interior Design Magazine.

Manuel Descrochers is the founder of the company and the product and he certainly deserves a lot of credit for bringing in such a healthy device which aims at cutting down the usage of plastic and also making the drinking water a healthy and sustainable drink which does not come with any reaction with plastic. The 4 layered egg shaped water filtration system is one of the best I have seen.

What could be better than working in a closed space without any disturbance? Well, I guess it has to be getting one of these egg-like environments which completely enclose you in a cubicle and make sure you are not distracted from any noise or even any sort of view.

Copenhagen-based design team GamFratesi has designed a really sleek and beautiful dinosaur egg like work environment for those who have problems concentrating on work. It comes with enough space to keep your desktop, a telephone and a few books and work unhindered in a really sleek area. However, if you are claustrophobic and do not like the idea of being enclosed in such a tiny space, you may not like the “Rewrite“.

Rewrite is a really cool design if you asked me and I would definitely buy one if I actually can. The reason why these work environments are getting popular is because people tend to get distracted very easily these days and that is not a great thing when it comes to working without getting distracted. Thus, designs like rewrite really work wonders.

San Diego is one of the largest metropolitan areas in the US with about 3 million people living in the vicinity. However, the city lacks a large airport and the present airport is a small stretch of dangerous runway which handles too many flights than it can handle.

There is also no space for the city to have a second airport. Thus, the nearby Pacific Ocean expanse is the only area where an airport could be built, like they did in Hong Kong. However, the Pacific is too deep for rocks and boulders to be sunk and an airport built over it.

Thus Adam Englund, a local lawyer and visionary ahs come up with the idea of a floating airport or rather, a floating city. The structure would float on the surface of the ocean about 10 miles away from San Diego shore, and it would also come with a free space of 200 million square feet which is enough to have a city in itself.

Thus, it would open up to possibilities of large residential areas, offices, complexes and other business apart from the airport which would sit on the top of the floating structure.

Unfortunately, the guy has not got the permission from regulatory bodies. We shall have to wait and watch if this plan ever takes off. Oh yes, it is also environmentally friendly.

There is nothing better than a hot cup of coffee to soothe your nerves and improve your mood, and especially if you have a luxurious coffee machine, you would definitely want to drink more of that wonderful cup of coffee. Philips has launched an opulent coffee machine called the Senseo Limited Edition which has been dsigned Marcel Wanders.

The Senseo Limited Edition almost looks bejewelled and the idea of having such a contemporary design in the kitchen is a very appealing idea. The Senseo Limited Edition comes in red and black and only 50,000 copies would be made available in France. Each of these coffee makers cost 120 Euros, and I must say that since it is a luxury product, it certainly is worth that much.

If you notice the embroidered design, you could understand the amount of hard work and effort that has been put into each of these coffee containers. However, do not expect this coffee container to work as a modern machine would, and it is just in the name that it is a machine otherwise it is a wonderful piece of art. Go ahead and get one for yourself before the whole of France purchases it.

There is nothing better than a vehicle that shows what kind of person you really are. If that means to say that you are a great fan of Dark Knight, it only gets better, doesn’t it? Here is an amazing bike which is inspired by the character of Dark Knight and the shadowy artworks portrayed in Gotham City.

If you are a great fan of Batman, the Dark Knight and also late Heath Ledger, you would most certainly love this eerie but stylish bike. The ZETH Stretched Cruiser has been designed by Vanguard Designs and the team in San Diego. This amazing machine is not just formidable but has been inspired by the fluid expressions of kinetic sculptures.

This modern iron horse is available for purchase and being an exclusive model, you will have to request for the price. I am sure it would be on the higher side but there is nothing better than roaming around the dark streets and alleys of your town at midnight using the Zeth Stretched Cruiser inspired by the Dark Knight!
