Warm Fuzzies: Sports Luminaries Get Spiffed Up for Charity

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 14:59:47 EST

On Oct. 20, some serious philanthropy went down in NYC at Foot Locker's On Our Feet Gala. Mickey Rourke (?!), Dennis Rodman, Brandon Jacobs, Cobi Jones, and New York Jet Braylon Edwards broke out the tuxes and showed their support.

The Foot Locker Foundation's annual event benefits the United Negro College Fund. For the past six years, the event has benefitted the UNCF through a scholarship program that provides deserving students the opportunity to reach their fullest potential. Who knew Mickey and Dennis had such hearts of gold?

Look Like a Dirty Hipster for One Month for Charity

Mon, 02 Nov 2009 14:59:59 EST

Movember started yesterday. Rules: 1. Register here. 2. When you emerge from your Halloween-party hangover this Sunday, shave. 3. Grow and groom a moustache for the entire month. Dress codes and formal portraiture be damned! It's for charity!

Remember:
-There is to be no joining the Mo to the sideburns. That's a beard.
-There is to be no joining of the handlebars on the chin. That's a goatee.
-A small tuft is all allowed under the bottom lip (aka, The Tickler).
-Document your stache's progress with the Mo-Mento Maker, a Facebook app created by Movember sponsor Pepsi Max!

To get you inspired, here's a gallery of some of last year's most excellent 'staches.

Save the World By Growing a Moustache

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:59:32 EDT

Movember (formerly known as November) is nearly upon us! Sign up here for this charity moustache-growing competition, then document the mind-boggling transformation of every hair on your upper lip using the Pepsi Max Mo-Mento Maker Facebook app.

Pepsi Max is a proud sponsor of Movember, and their app will create a time-lapse video of your moustache growing. Just take pictures of your progress as often as you like to make your amazing moustache movie. Post the video to your wall for all to see, jealousy ensues, and your friends clamor to get in on the fun. A little healthy competition can only strengthen a Facebook friendship.

And it's for a good cause: raising funds and awareness for the most serious of men's health issues, prostate and testicular cancer.

So sign up for Movember here, and relish your last days of clean-shaven-ness. It's about to get real hairy up in here.

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 13:59:08 EDT

Check out this video from the Real Kiteboarding Camp held earlier this summer. The rogue gadget warriors from Summermodo attached a GoPro camera inside a kite and onto the chest of a professional kiteboarder using two different mounts. Awesomeness ensued.
