This week in America, we get down and dirty in the roots of The U.S. We’ll talk Homestead and Honest Abe, The Spirit of St. Louis and America’s favorite fugitive couple, Bonnie and Clyde. Even though Gretzky, Messier and the Edmonton Oilers are Canada based, we’re also going to hit you with some puck and the beginning of an NHL dynasty.
Do you remember in elementary school there was always that kid- probably named Stevie or Tommy – that dropped their pants all the way down to their ankles to take a leak at the urinal not realizing this was fairly awkward behavior? Later in life these oddballs began to adapt though they didn’t quite make it all the way, stopping just short of not sticking out. We had a lot of fun with this and got Vincent Harris, M.S., a body language expert and author of the bestselling book “The Productivity Epiphany,” to comment on some of more common yet awkward stances we see and let us know how they might be interpreted.
A single website to search or create ‘best of’ lists of anything is a simple concept we’ve all wondered why it didn’t exist yet. We’ve found one and I’m addicted.
The rules have changed in late night TV. With social media in the mix, a new breed of late night talk show has risen, literally leaving the traditionalists in the dark. Hosts are not only personalities for their shows, but for their YouTube channels, twitter following and Facebook fans. The younger audience relies on the online social interaction to form a bond with their shows of choice.
I used to be mildly offended when I didn’t get invited to a wedding. Never again. I get it. I understand now.
This year was filled with a substantial amount of breakout individual performances in sports. From all walks of life and sports spanning the globe, 2012 had it all. Records were broken and laws of physics, defied.
This edition of She Knows What She Wants, we’re asking Carla Marie of Elvis Duran and the Morning Show, what gifts a guy can get his girl for under $100. This Holiday season we’ve compiled a list of 5 categories and asked a select group of bright minded females to do all the work for us. The lovely ladies must choose a gift for each category around $100 or less and describe why. Lets face it, it’s just not easy buying holiday gifts for women, so we’re going to do all the research for you. All you have to do is pick the gift that best matches your dame’s lifestyle. Use the guide as matter of fact or just a good start in your otherwise oblivious gift buying mind state.
Our second article on how to dress for work will focus on what to do after getting the basics down and onto how to fine tune the details. In the movie Crazy, Stupid, Love, Ryan Gosling’s character gives fashion advise to Steve Carrell: “Be better than the Gap,” he tells him. I have no quarrels with the Gap to be honest but I like the speech. Don’t settle, reach further, and be better when you can.
Dressing for the role is a big part of doing the role. People need to take what you say seriously and credibility tends to sink with each mustard stain on your mismatched tie. Just because you can’t judge a book by it’s cover doesn’t mean people won’t try.
He’s hands down the coolest guy in the entertainment business. As dry as he is cool as he is funny. Infamous for playing the “no one will believe you” prank, where he’ll sneak up behind someone on the street and cover their eyes or steal someones french fries at a restaurant. Bill has secured his place in the record books as, hands down, our favorite person ever. So to pay tribute RSVLTS.com created these minimalist Bill Murray posters from our favorite Bill films. Enjoy. Share. Garfield will be finished soon.
Over the next few months we’ll be publishing a new editorial series, showcasing the working space, living space and general “where the magic happens” space of our friends and colleagues. The point is to profile people offices, apartments or man caves highlighting meaningful items that they’ve acquired over the years. Keep an eye out as we connect with top musical artists, publishers and influencers to find out what makes them tick. For our inaugural feature, we’re going to give you an inside look at our lair.
I think we’ve all heard the fabled belief that we as humans aren’t meant to be monogamous – that it’s unnatural and goes against our biological instincts. I don’t know if it’s true or not because I’m not a scientist and you probably aren’t either. My point is that even if it is true, the people who say this are still full of crap.
Paul Abrahamian and Jon Sherman were both 26 when they decided to open Sticky’s Finger Joint in Manhattan, just north of New York University in Washington Square Park. It’s only been open since April (three months at this writing) and already they’ve been featured on a Bobby Flay’s Food Network hit show 3 Days To Open, (see the episode here) turned down a 7-figure offer for their brand, and have entertained multiple investors interested in their expansion.
While reading this surprisingly well written piece on fighting I learned there’s an actual term for getting an infection from punching someone in the mouth: fight bite. I can imagine someone hearing this predicament for the first time wondering how often people get punched while yawning. Not me. I’m just ashamed to know there’s an efficient term to describe my $1,200 hospital bill and a one inch scar on my knuckle. This is why blogs exist: so people can tell ridiculous stories for others to laugh at. Trust me when I say that despite my daily urges, I tend to believe that fights should be reserved for neanderthals. Read and learn, Friends.
If only Facebook, or better yet the internet was around for the early 90′s, when feel-good kids sports movies were king, and CGI-alien-robot-apocalypse saturated blockbusters were kept in comic books and board games. To pay homage to the athletic prowess of fictional 90′s sports stars, we’ve created renditions of what their Facebook timelines would have looked like, fully equipped with the creepily accurate Facebook ads.

Grilled Cheese Month. The thought alone makes our mouths water, belts unbuckle and chairs recline. The Holiday originated in 1809 the year James Madison took office. Madison named the city of Green-Bay, and in turn, Wisconsin named their capitol city after Madison, which is the epicenter of cheese. We assume Madison invented the grilled cheese and other cheese dishes. Although we’d love nothing more than to stuff cheese and everything meat in our fridge between two slices of bread, here are some healthier, grown up options to the primal and sick grilled cheese thoughts in our heads. The Madison Mandatory Photo Credit EatWisconsinCheese.com Bread: Firm white sandwich bread Cheese: Wisconsin cheddar cheese Extras: Mayonnaise, butter Beer Pairing: Yuengling Lager, Samuel Adams Spread mayonnaise on the outside of each slice of bread. Layer slices of cheddar cheese on inside of each piece of bread. Put both pieces together.

If you’re more of a traditionalist, then just have a f–king glass of whiskey.
