Ziz Clothing - Quirky Christian Tshirts

Welcome to the world of Christian tshirts. Type in Christian tshirts in your Google search and you will pull up a very wide variety of tastes and categories. From Kerusso to C28 to NOTW … the big boys take the market share of the first couple of pages. Kerusso and C28 both have affiliate programs so … their shirts will show up on tons … I mean tons of sites. The little known or up and coming sites like …  zoethreads have some fantastic tshirts … but the market is pretty much bloated with other Christian tshirts that are alot of transfer stuff. I personally really liked the jesusbranded stuff … but alas they are not around right now. So, I’m plugging another up and coming site … Ziz Clothing. There was a lot of their stuff on Tuna Tees as well … but now these guys are going after it with what they call … Quirky Christian Tshirts. I like them … they are simple, funny and different. I know they have only been up a few weeks … but they are showing up on Googles radar a few pages back. Check them out.

Tuna Tees

A new tshirt store on the web, big deal ... right? Well, maybe so ... but I like this one. It's a little different in that it's tshirts made by Christians ... rather than just a Christian Tshirt Store. There is a difference I think. See, Christians like to wear all sorts of tshirts ... not just ones that have religious stuff on them. I love to wear tshirts but I don't like to buy them off of sites that have offensive tshirt sayings or slogans ... funny is one thing ... but offensive, vulgar, rude, and trashy is another. Tuna Tees is an up and comer. Be sure and check them out! They have some great motorcycle tshirts like this great Valkyrie shirt.

Choosing a Motorcycle Jacket

Choosing a Motorcycle Jacket
By James Witherspoon

The leather jacket has been the quintessential mantle of motorcycle culture throughout the twentieth and not twenty-first century. Not only has the leather jacket encapsulated motorcycle style and aura, but it has also proven to be a crucial part of the safety gear of most riders. The leather motorcycle jacket is certainly still daily safety gear for many riders, but it is not the only option when choosing a motorcycle jacket. Jackets made of synthetic materials are becoming increasingly popular for their ease of use and resistance to the elements.

Though style is an important part of the motorcycle experience, safety is also a major factor in properly operating a motorcycle. A jacket is a necessary piece of safety equipment because of its ability to protect a rider against abrasion in the event of an accident. Solid, smooth asphalt can prove to be brutally abrasive when a rider is sliding across it at any speed. The need for a jacket that can protect a rider against abrasion is typically the first factor in choosing a jacket.

Most sources suggest that competition grade leather (.9 to 1.4 mm thick) is the best option for abrasion resistance. Not only will a leather jacket of this thickness protect your skin against injury in a slide, but it will be able to handle that type of abuse through multiple incidents. Synthetic jackets also provide a great amount of abrasion resistance, but because of the woven nature of these fabrics, they are more likely to wear down in an accident and do not provide as much protection as other options. A good leather jacket has been shown to provide about four times the resistance of synthetic materials and about 16 times the resistance of denim.

But abrasion resistance is not the only factor in choosing a motorcycle jacket to meet your needs. A motorcycle jacket should also fit in a way that does not hinder your ability to operate you vehicle. A new leather jacket can often be stiff and restrictive. Also leather jackets tend to be less adjustable to the unique shape of a rider. Synthetic jackets excel in their flexible protection of the rider and are also generally more adaptable to all different weather conditions. Synthetic materials are created to handle the elements, including rain, heat, or cold with relative ease and less care. A leather jacket is capable of keeping a rider both warm and dry, but it will necessitate additional care in order to maintain the life of your leather jacket.

As safety technology is improving, so are the designs of all types of motorcycle jackets. Many leather and synthetic jackets are incorporating permanent or removable body armor at crucial spots on the body to take your safety as a rider a step further.

Heavyweight Road Bikes - The Kitten Bike Has Car Wheels

via www.trendhunter.com

Gregory deGouveia is the creator of this Kitten bike, an awesome bicycle outfitted with car wheels. Such durable tires come with a price—Kitten weighs over 200 pounds.

Gregory deGouveia created the Kitten bike just because he found free wheels in a junkyard. According to Gregory deGouveia, “The Kitten was built because the wheels were free. It’s excessive and inefficient—it’s sort of the anti-bike.”

The Inflatable Church » Coolest Gadgets

What do you do if the one half of the happy couple wants to get married in church and the other half wants to get married in the local football stadium (St. James Park is so romantic ). You could either hastily find a new partner with the same opinions on venues or you could go out and hire an inflatable church.

Facebook equals Falling Grades

from this article.

Does the "F" in Facebook stand for an "F" in school? A new study says that college students who are on Facebook while studying or doing homework wind up getting 20 percent lower grades than students who don't have the social networking site in visual range, or even running in the background on their computers or mobile phones.

The study, reported in the Daily Mail of Britain, was done by Netherlands psychologist Paul A. Kirschnera of the Centre for Learning Sciences and Technologies at the Open University of the Netherlands, and Aryn C. Karpinskib of Ohio State University. It will be published in the journal Computers in Human Behavior.

Kirschnera told the Daily Mail that his team studied 219 U.S. university students between ages 19 and 54, and found that Facebook users had a typical grade point average of 3.06, while "non-users" had an average GPA of 3.82.

The psychologist said the study wasn't about whether Facebook's good or bad, but goes more to the stereotype that younger people are fluid multi-taskers —sending text message, listening to music, reading a book, all at the same time, for example — without any problems. (Driving and texting at the same time is, of course, being the among the most dangerous multi-tasking activities anyone can do.)

"Our study, and other previous work, suggests that while people may think constant task-switching allows them to get more done in less time, the reality is it extends the amount of time needed to carry out tasks and leads to more mistakes," said Kirschnera.

Ride Texas: Burger Quest

from this article.

Ride Texas issued a challenge last spring to eat the TOP 10 Reader's Choice Hamburgers in 10 days. Wow ... Mike McMahan from Houston, Texas is the 10 Best Burger Quest Champion. I don't know if I could have eaten 10 burgers in 10 days. Probably should have made an independent film out of it. Just goes to show you ... any old excuse will do to ... cycle down the road. I'm still amazed at how many bikers have "pie runs" on the weekends. A couple of weekends ago I say a bunch ... and I mean a bunch ... probably 30 bikes at the TigerMart ... filling up ... I asked where they were headed ... yep, a 150 mile round trip "pie run". I hope that pie was gooood. I assume that the photo credit goes to Mike as well.
