Lamborghini Reventón


Inspired by the F-22 Raptor fighter jet, US$1.5 million Lamborghini Reventón was unveiled. If numbers mean anything to you – the new supercar is powered by a 650hp 6.5L V12 engine, accelerates from 0-60 mph in just 3.2 seconds and has a maximum speed of 211 mph. The Lamborghini design team used the technical base of their Murcielago LP640, compressed it and then amped it up. As with other current models, the Reventón is defined through its sharp edges, smooth surfaces and aerodynamic lines. Tempted as you may be, put away your check books and credit cards, all twenty models that will be manufactured are taken as the Lamborghini brand reinforces its legendary status.

Magic Carpet Ride

I guess this is how Osama prays in his cave:
The "Sajjadah 1426" is a piece of art and a great example of the electroluminescent phosphor printing technology. It is also quite practical. It assists the person who performs the divine service of prayers, called namaz, not just by creating an amazing atmosphere, but by actually finding the right direction to pray towards.

With the help of an imbedded compass module, the lighted motifs of the rug turn brighter the closer the rug is turned toward the direction of Mecca. This modern sajjadah introduces a brand new experience in the daily performance of namaz.
Thoose silly Muslims.

Schnabel schnubbed at the Oscars


Maybe Julian better stick to the purple Pjs, painting and interior decorating he's so famous for (Grammercy Park hotel). Because it seems like academy has no love for the Schnabical. Julian was Schunbed in what his "Scaphandre et le papillon, Le" was nominated for. Well at least he got the best director prize at Cannes and the golden globes; so at least hes got that going for him. They probably just don't like his signature purple pjs or his ugly pink "Palazzo Chupi". Although "Basquiat" was one of my favorites and his upcoming "announced" pro-semitic israeli based film definitely sounds interesting. So well be seeing alot more of his antics soon.

What is this bitch thinking?!


Seriously whats the deal. Is she in that dire need of publicity, that she needs to show her bresticles with nothing to even promote. She is not even hot. I'd only fuck her for the fame, but seriously is they're any other reason ... Bitch can't act, sing and fucks every dude from L.I. to L.A. (including some of my personal friends, And now runs around doing yay with some of my college smuts)Fuck this girl but, I'll give her one thing though; She does have a nice rack and they do look as real as i've seen them

The Madd, Man

You'r boy went to Southern Hospitably on 2nd between 76th and 77th and I must say it was pretty damn good. I recommend either the brisket or the baby back ribs with a side of mac n' chesse. Shit's bomb. But, if you are a real gangster (and not afraid of going past 125th st) and want the real deal BBQ. Hit up the famous Dinosaur Bar B que up at 131st st and Broadway for the best damn bbq u've ever had.

The Madd Smoking man goes to the "Schneighborhood"

As you may know, we at MSM have something of an obsession with the big, pink artist-auteur Julian Schnabel and his big, pink West Village home, the Palazzo Chupi. The Chupi is not just a real-estate development: It is a monument to Baby-Boomer Bohemian Bourgeois lifestyle, containing as it does not only the family Schnabel, but the actor Richard Gere (Maharishi, RIP) and some guy from Credit Suisse, as well as 180 casement-ed windows, earthenware-and-marble bathtubs, cast-concrete countertops, and several hundred emerald-green terra-cotta tiles. It's also kind of a poignant monument to Schnabel's career. In the March issue of Vanity Fair, Ingrid Sischy details the making of what she calls his Gesamtkunstwerk ("total artwork"), from when Schnabel first moved into the $2.1 million building ("He covered the walls with red velvet, brought in a few possessions, including Picasso's Femme au Chapeau, and ran The Godfather on his VCR 24 hours a day") {gangsta} to the present ("Bono, Johnny Depp, Martha Stewart, Hugh Jackman, and Madonna have all checked out the remaining residences for sale, at prices ranging for $27 million to $32 million"). There's symbolism here that we don't want to quite contemplate. But look at the pictures after the jump! They're Schnabulous aka reministent of beetlejuice.


Sugamomas love Young dick

The newest player in the NY dating scene PocketChange; (well actually not so new, its actually owned by, See link: Janis spindel matchmaker ) a company dedicated to satisfying the whims of the uber-wealthy. Without missing a beat, PocketChange seizes every opportunity to capitalize on the superficiality, insecurity and pretension (“Nothing is out of bounds. Except, of course, anything outer-borough.”) of New York and L.A.’s elite. This now includes a speed dating service that specializes in finding young blood for rich cougars (sign me up). The project, Natural Selection Speed Date II: Sugar Mamas & Boy Toys, is the feminized sequel to PocketChange’s oft talked about Rich Guys & Hot Girls.

Female eligibility is based on age and net worth. In order to use the service, a woman must be aged 35+ and meet one of four rather outrageous financial criterion (including a net worth of more than 6 mil and liquidity of at least 4+). The men, by contrast, need only be young and pretty. While I find this particular manifestation of our changing social order EXTREMELY amusing; I have to wonder why any wealthy individual, male or female, would sign up for something like this. At these shows, the individual may be the opener, but their net worth is the headliner. Pre-nups may help secure premarital assets, but alimony, marital assets and child support are always up for grabs. My point is that these particular individuals should really (REALLY) want to find someone who is not in it for the money. The stakes are high; if divorce is in the cards, these people will have to pony up either way. If you were that fabulously wealthy, wouldn’t you want to keep it that way? Wouldn’t you want the odds in you favor? And if so, wouldn’t that mean not swimming in the shark tank? Clearly, these people need to pay someone a lot of money to do some serious life coaching. Even more clearly, I need to sign up.
