OK folks, I will personally testify to this one. I own both Planet Earth and Galapagos on Blu-ray and breathtaking is such an understatement that I should be lambasted for it, but for lack of a better word, it’s breathtakingly awesome. The new BBC HD Natural History Collection not only shows of the entire planet in Planet Earth, the amazing Galapagos Islands in Galapagos, but it also covers China, and the Ganges River in India. Wild China has an entire chapter on pandas, and who the hell doesn’t love pandas? Ganges covers the life giving and life taking river in India, and if you’ve ever seen the gharial (narrow snout crocodile) that alone justifies watching that series. Watching nature documentaries in High-Def nearly puts any Blu-ray Hollywood movie to shame. Just see for yourself. $125.

It weights less than 7 pounds but can support your fat fanny while you slip and slide and ultimately bite it while gliding on the surface of the lake. See more angles after the break. $415.

It features a carbon fiber frame which is held together by a rounded square tube design that maximizes stiffness while minimizing weight to a mere 1.85 pounds. The Cervélo R3 SL Bicycle comes with a lifetime warranty (for your bike, but not your sperm count). $6,000. Read more »

This has got to be the most colorful, freshest backpack Nike has put out. The Nike SB Eugene Backpack is named for Eugene, Oregon; as you may know Eugene is the spiritual home of Nike where track coach Bill Bowerman co-founded the company and had his star distance runner, the late great Steve Prefontaine test the innovative products. 30 years later Nike’s Skateboarding division has released the colorful Eugene Backpack in a ‘Buzz Lightyear’ colorway. $150.
