GOOD Magazine

GOOD Magazine

from GOOD:

We see a growing number of people tied together not by age, career, background, or circumstance, but by a shared interest. This revolves around a passion for potential mixed with fierce pragmatism and creative engagement. We sum all this up as the sensibility of giving a damn. But to shorten it, let's call it GOOD. We're here to push this movement and cover its realization.

While so much of today's media is taking up our space, dumbing us down, and impeding our productivity, GOOD exists to add value. Through a print magazine, feature and documentary films, original multimedia content and local events, GOOD is providing a platform for the ideas, people, and businesses that are driving change in the world.

'The ultimate man pant, available in three different models - the Original, the Bare, or the G-String...the Ballbra range features an exclusive hi-tech harness pouch which provides comfortable cover for the full male package, or just the testicles... At night, the Ballbra becomes a high-tech sex aid which can be worn during sex to cradle the testicles and increase orgasm intensity.'"

YouTube - Outkast-Hey Ya (performed by Peanuts)

The song "Hey Ya" is always good to hear now and then again BUT pairing it with the incredible dance moves and stylings of the Peanuts gang in their Charlie Brown Christmas Special is just dang gone superbical (there is no word to describe it ... superbical - a seussical word created by Noah meaning superb and incredible).

Having a freeze frame of the dance scene from the Christmas Special may make my reviewed a little bias which means you should only be compelled to watch it more since you need to seek the truth for yourself!

The Edge Annual Question 2008

The Edge Annual Question 2008

Edge asks today's most brightest and progressive thinkers one question: WHAT HAVE YOU CHANGED YOUR MIND ABOUT? WHY?

When thinking changes your mind, that's philosophy.
When God changes your mind, that's faith.
When facts change your mind, that's science.
