WELCOME TO MOVEMBER: MOUSTACHE SEASON

During the month of November each year, Movember asks men across the world to grow a moustache with the aim of raising vital funds and awareness for men’s health issues. Movember moustaches were first grown in Australia back in 2003 and since that time word of Movember and its men’s health messages have spread across the globe. Movember currently runs official campaigns in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Ireland, the US, Canada, South Africa, Finland, the Netherlands, Denmark, Norway, Belgium and the Czech Republic. In addition, Movember is aware of supportive Mo Bros and Mo Sistas dotted around the world; all of whom have played an important role in growing Movember into what it is today.

On Movember 1st, guys (Mo Bros) register here at Movember.com with a clean-shaven face and then for the remainder of the month dedicate themselves to growing a fine moustache. Supported by the women in their lives, known as Mo Sistas, Movember Mo Bros raise funds by seeking sponsorship for their Mo growing efforts. At the end of the month, it’s traditional for Mo Bros and Mo Sistas to celebrate their awareness and fundraising efforts by throwing a Movember party and awarding the highly sought after titles of Miss Movember and Man of Movember.

Mo Bros are helping to change the face of men’s health by effectively becoming walking, talking billboards for the 30 days of November and through their actions and words raise awareness by promoting private and public conversation around the often ignored issue of men’s health. Together, we are truly changing the face of men’s health.

Beewishop: How to lead your grocery shop to bankruptcy

28 October 2011

Beewishop is a shopping website for beers and wines from around the world. But it’s also an informative site for lovers of original beers and wines.

At the initiative of this project, four people with complementary skills: a beer specialist, a wine specialist, a marketing specialist and a computer engineer.

Beer and wine are products that are often in opposition. The  common feeling is that wine is rather classy and beer  has a pejorative image.

Beewishop’s will is to break these pictures from another time and suggest in the same website beer and wine of quality at affordable prices.

They even sell the famous Duff beer of Homer Simpson!

QOOQ’ing 2.0

26 October 2011

Jean-Yves Hepp explains how he came up with the idea for the coach culinary touch: This object, invented in order to provide the transmission of knowledge but also the desire and the pleasure of cooking is quite what will make the kitchen of the 21st century, a kitchen always friendly but still more modern.

How to create a touch pad that fits perfectly in the kitchen?
That is the question in the mind of André Lepetit before designing the tablet QOOQ. He reveals here how he found an answer: QOOQ touch interface is a multimedia device, resistant to all the dangers of the kitchen, created through a combination of components for maximum performance.

Xavier Houy explains how he was inspired by an animal claw to design this unique and mysterious object:
This device with pure and sober design adapts to any kitchen environment, like a chameleon, resistant to all collateral projections from the kitchen.

Now available in red, cream and black, the tablet integrates and adapts to any kitchen with the possibility to buy and offer recipes for a chosen amount of time.
