Unique Autosports Pool Table by Hurricane Custom Billiards

Taste is subjective, and one man's dream is another man's nightmare. Take for example this custom pool table. It was crafted by Florida's Hurricane Custom Billiards specially for Unique Autosports South, the Miami showroom of the purveyor of custom rides for Hollywood's finest. Since Unique's whips are all about big wheels and bling, Hurricane built this table out of chromed steel and mounted it on four giant rims with ultra-low-profile tires. They topped it off with black leather trim and a black felt table top, and mounted a custom lighting kit capable of reproducing 1000 colors, just for good measure. And while this may not be your proverbial slice of pie, Hurricane Custom Billiards is capable of crafting a table to suit your taste, no matter how outlandish.

Brad Pitt's 'Make It Right' Foundation, Charity of the Day

Filed under: Charity, Charity of the Day

Brad Pitt's Make It Right foundation is geared towards helping hurricane Katrina victims rebuild in New Orleans. Brad is putting a call out to all American families to be generous and giving this Christmas season by donating to the cause and helping New Orleans families as they fight "the fight of the their lives." The biggest focus of the efforts is rebuilding the homes that were lost, and doing it in a speedy and environmentally conscious way.

Donating to the cause is a great gift, either as a straight monetary amount given in a loved one's name or through giving them a t-shirt or hat to promote and support the cause.

$5k Hurricane Phone

by Nicole Weston (RSS feed) —

After last year's brutal hurricane season - and predictions that this year will be just as bad - it seems like a good time to invest in some disaster supplies, just to be on the safe side. Engadget Mobile posted about a $5,000 Personal Hurricane Kit made by Assemble Communications. It won't hold a lot of food or water, but the waterproof suitcase has a battery-powered satellite antenna to let you make calls to loved ones and emergency personnel. Even to FEMA, if you're so inclined. The kit comes with 400 minutes of air-talk time and 150 mb of internet access, as you can hook it up to a laptop with ease, though checking your e-mail or surf the net may not be the best thing to do in an emergency situation.

Nambé twist cocktail shaker

Filed under: Decor, Spirits

This stunning shaker is inspired by the curves of a helix. It is made of a special thermal retentive metal called Nambé which holds the cold 3 times longer than other metals. Just stow it in the freezer for about 30 minutes, add your favorite mixers, and out comes chilled drinks without the need for ice. The Nambé metal will never tarnish, crack, chip or peel. The shaker goes for about $145.
