October 12, 2012 /

Some guys want to find a girlfriend, while others want to meet as many women as possible. Regardless of what you’re looking for, you have to approach more women to increase your chances of success.

In his article about how to get a girlfriend, Dan Bacon points out an interesting fact:

We have surveyed more than 6,000 women during the last 7 years and 73% say that men don’t approach women enough anymore. Women also complain that a lot of modern men have become too wimpy and take too long to make something happen.

This isn’t surprising, as many men have trouble with this. They get nervous or intimidated, and so they avoid the possibility of rejection.

So you need to learn to change your attitude. Just as important, however, is learning how to approach women. There are all sorts of great pickup artists who can help with that. Their approaches vary so you need to do research and find one that fits your personality, yet at the same time you have to be willing to challenge yourself, otherwise you won’t get better at this. Check out our pickup artist web guide for examples.

Dan Bacon’s article has some easy advice on approaching women in coffee shops. Other stress learning how to talk to women and not hitting on them as soon as you approach them. Read up and you’ll see right away many ways you can improve.

Handmade Bars Made in Less than 8 Hours

October 11, 2012 /

Last weekend, the world’s largest BBQ competition took place in Kansas City, Missouri as more than 600 chefs and 100,000+ attendees descended on the American Royal World Series of BBQ.

George Dickel Tennessee Whisky hosted their Raising the Bar competition at the event to celebrate the beauty behind the handcrafted hard work that goes into this mecca of meat. The rules were simple: six teams of three craftsmen had eight hours to build a badass bar from scratch. They could weld, saw and hammer to their heart’s delight, but they couldn’t leave the set, and at day’s end, the bar had to be capable of pouring a shot of George Dickel.

Check out the results below.

Why It’s Awesome: The robotic arm in the right hand side of the photo pours your shot at the push of a button no matter which bar stool you’re seated at. This whole technology thing could work out after all…

Why It’s Awesome: Let’s face it. Drinking whisky anywhere is a good thing. But drinking whisky served by pulling the trigger on an electric screwdriver while seated in stools made from actual George Dickel whisky casks is a VERY good thing.

Why It’s Awesome: Because nothing tastes better than a stiff drink after a day in the garage. Just remember, put the power tools down before picking the whisky glass up!

Why It’s Awesome: A) Because if you build a bar like this, former Cincinnati reds pitcher Rob Dibble (left) might just show up to party with you! B) You’re sitting on a full-fledged whisky barrel C) A suspended pulley triggers a shot of George Dickel. It’s like the Wild West, but better.

Computer Programs Inspired by Human Brain Functions

October 8, 2012 /

We’ve all seen or read the science fiction stories about artificial intelligence—where a computer becomes almost human. Well, it’s closer than you think.

Not Just Science Fiction Anymore

We currently experience voice recognition searches via applications such as Siri, as well as well-developed interactive programs using cloud hosting services. Through several “brain-inspired” computer programs, the technology world is developing and introducing many applications that use the human brain as a model. Here’s a brief look a just a few of them.

Weapons Inspired by the Brain

Driving computers even closer to artificial intelligence is DARPA’s Systems of Neuromorphic Adaptive Plastic Scalable Electronics (SyNAPSE) program. While that is quite a mouthful, the premise is rather simple. The developers wanted to create a neuromorphic electronic system that will have functions that look and act much like that of the brain. Applications for this system include manned and robotic systems, and image processing.

This technology is being developed primarily to enable today’s battlefield specialists to use computer systems and electronics to collect and process information. This will allow humans to process the correct responses in complex wartime scenarios.

Image Recognition Software

Two British scientists—Drs. Jeffrey Ng and Anil Bharath—developed technology that allows a computer to see. Believe it or not, this technology is already being used. Using this technology, consumers are given the opportunity to view past purchases. In addition, this technology is being used by companies to more effectively advertise their products.

Created by Cortexica Vision Search, the first offering of this type of image recognition software has given consumers WINEfindr. This app allows consumers an interactive experience by photographing a wine label on their smartphones. The results are presented in images, thus using the image recognition part of this application.

Computer Chips That Mimic The Brain

Computer chips are basically what drives computers. And now, researchers at MIT have created a computer chip that mimics the synapses of the human brain. Originally used to study how the neurons of the brain can strengthen over time, the scientists are now studying ways to use these chips as part of brain-machine interfaces. These types of interfaces will be used primarily to control artificial limbs; however, the scientists eventually would like to use them to actually build prosthetic brain parts to help brain-damaged individuals.

As you can see, brain-related computers and software are no longer a futuristic, science fiction theory. In fact, you can probably find a program or two that you are using right now.

Are you an Alpha male?

October 5, 2012 /

If you’re having trouble with dating and relationships, this is a question you should ask yourself. How you perceive yourself has a lot to do with how women will perceive you. Women love confident men, and they definitely can spot a lack of confidence.

So before you think about some of the tools discussed by pickup artists, you have to take a hard look at yourself and go into this with the right attitude, which some pickup artists call “inner game.”

Dan Bacon has an excellent article and video that discusses “How to become an Alpha Male.”

Millions of modern men are now learning how to be an alpha male. One of the main reasons why men are rushing to become an alpha male is that women have become a lot more confident, independent and assertive and modern men are finding themselves feeling nervous and unsure around these women.

The truth is, when you display alpha male traits you will get all the love, sex and affection from women that you handle. Why? You will be one of the very RARE men who is able to remain calm, confident and in control around the new, savvy modern woman.

Check out his 5 tips, including a discussion on the difference between an Alpha male vs an Omega male. Then check out our Dating Tips page for more great advice.

5 Ways to Style in a Mini Cooper

October 3, 2012 /

Many younger people do not know much about the Mini Cooper’s history. In addition to being a top-selling automobile since the middle of the 20th century, the Mini Cooper’s legacy is partially tied to its racing history. While most auto teams focused on improving their engine sizes, Mini Cooper drivers instead focused on the light weight and great cornering the Mini provided. In the middle of the 1960, the Mini Cooper dominated the Monte Carlo Rally, winning the race from 1964 until 1967. Its success changed how people envision cars. Today, the retro look of the Mini Cooper stands out among other vehicles. Here are a few ideas for styling a Mini Cooper.

  1. Retro elements: Retro is always in, and those who emphasize the retro aspects of their Mini Coopers will find that their tweaks never go out of style. Homemade items were popular in the sixties, so a knit steering wheel cover will look great in a Mini Cooper. Consider hanging a peace sign, the leading symbol of the 1960s, from the rear-view mirror or elsewhere. The 1960s happy face will also remind people of the era and emphasize what the Mini Cooper should be: a happy, fun car. Particularly ambitious drivers can even consider painting flowers and other elements of 1960s style for an extreme look.
  2. Racing heritage: The Mini Cooper’s racing heritage is legendary, and symbols of this dominance can look great on Minis. Simple, classy racing stripes look great on the Mini’s lines, and new wheels can complete the look. An upgraded exhaust can make the Mini look, drive and sound great as well as serve as a nod to the Mini’s history. Bold drivers may even consider painting their favorite number of the side of their car.
  3. Focus on the interior: Some love the standard look of their Minis, but there are options for styling for them as well. By focusing on the interior, drivers can add fashion cues for themselves and their passengers. Beaded seats are both nostalgic and look great, and a new stereo system is always a worthy, stylish upgrade. Simple upgrades such as new floor mats and accessories to hang on the rear-view mirror can improve the interior look of the car tremendously.
  4. Sophisticated themes: The Mini Cooper is a quirky, fun car. One option more are considering is taking steps to make the Mini a more sophisticated, stately vehicle. A simple black or white paint job paired with tinted windows can transform the Mini from a fun car to one that can even be a bit intimidating. While some scoff at this notion, it is possible to match the more serious look of the Fiat 500 in a car with a slightly larger footprint.
  5. Extreme styling: While most people will stick with relatively minor style upgrades, some people prefer to radically transform their cars. For these people, the Mini Cooper is a great option. Its lines and simple structure makes it a great platform for extreme car design, and Mini Coopers have been transformed into a number of different looks. If the goal is to transform a car into a bug, a dog, a cat or anything else, the Mini Cooper is a great model to use.

The Mini Cooper sells well around the world. With the increased attention dedicated to vehicles that do not negatively affect the environment, the Mini Cooper is positioned to take see increased sales. Those who like to style their cars will find it is a great option.
