Iron Maiden World Tour: Tokyo 1984
by Josh Rubin
Ju$t Another Rich Kid has released a new design in their series of limited edition Ts, King of Rock. My perpetual Tokyo lust combined with a momentary penchant for 80s metal definitely makes this Iron Maiden World Tour: Tokyo 1984 t my favorite in the series so far. Only 100 available so get get it while it's hot.
Airtreks
by Ami Kealoha
Booking multi-destination international flights just got more fun (easier and cheaper too) thanks to Airtrek's recently launched TripPlanner 5.0. Their flash-based map brings hi-tech visual logic that makes planning a trip feel more like a fluid video game than competitors' frustrating pull down menus and pop up calendars. Mouse navigation zooms and pans across continents, enabling users to add destinations with a simple click. The new platform also means travelers can save and update a route, view it on a world map, explore alternate routes (including automatically suggestions of optional value-added stopovers), share plans with others and get instant "one-click" estimates.
CoffeeGo go going gone
by Evan Orensten
A friend recently introduced me to these tasty coffee candies that advertise themselves as an alternative "when you don't have time for coffee." These old school hard candies are a welcome addition to the candy drawer and at about $1 a box, a welcome relief from a $4 cup of coffee. Available in regular and cappuccino flavor.
Ed. Note: they have 6mg of caffeine as opposed to the 100mg in a cup of coffee, so while they're certainly tasty they don't quite fulfill the morning fix.
Juicy Water
by Parker Hutchinson
Because of Cool Hunting's unusually high Juicy Water by Innocent Drinks. The health-focused U.K. company is taking aim at the shortcomings of most juice drinks: they're either packed with preservatives or simply far too sweet. Innocent's solution is to start with spring water (about 70% of the mix) and add only real fruit and a dash of sugar. The result is a light and delicious thirst-quencher that's hydrating and healthy. Though the drinks aren't yet available stateside, Britons can enjoy them in four flavors: black currant, cranberry-raspberry, lemon-lime, and mango-passion fruit.
