It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything to my Male Body Blog but, this guy really caught my attention…

Perfect husband material, don’t you think? Maybe I just need to get laid. I’ve only had sex once in 2012 thus far. Scandal, I know right? The ol’ mangina is getting all dry and dusty.

I’ve recently started using Clipix to collect and group content for inspiration and upcoming blog posts. The service offers users the ability to create online clipboards to virtually clip content for inspiration, collaboration, later viewing etc. Here’s an example of my Fashion Clipboard:

The list of ways to use clipix is literally endless, for example: You could use clipix to make a shopping list of things you wish to buy. You could clip your favorite recipes together in one place. Clip gift ideas, vacation ideas, party planning, books you want to read, movies you want to see, etc.

You can create as many customized clipboards as you like, arrange them in any order of your choosing, reclip others ciips, comment on clips, share them to social networks, and even collaborate with friends and family using Syncboards.

Clipping new stuff is really easy. All you need to do is add the “clip” button to your browser’s bookmarks bar and when you find something you want to clip, simply click the clip link – a clip panel will open and you’ll be able to choose which picture to clip, choose which clipboard to clip it to, and add some notes. You can also create new clipboards from within the clip panel if you want to save something that requires a whole new category. There’s even an iPhone app so that you can take all your clipboards with you and add new clips on the go by taking photos of things you see. 

Go on, get clipping… Sign up here: clipix

ZEF FILMS 2012

I can’t believe I’ve neglected my blog for an entire week. I know… Bad bad naughty David! Don’t hate me, please? The truth is that I’ve been quite busy with college assignments all week and when the weekend finally rolled around I babysit a little 7 year old. Never in my life will I ever even consider having children unless I can afford a full-time nanny and maid. One weekend with one boy totally exhausted me, I don’t know how some of you people can do it every day, with more than one child. I have much respect for you.

Gotta love Apple’s Photo Booth effects

Anyway… I promise that things will return to “normal” this week, especially with New York / Mercedes Benz Fall 2012 Fashion Week starting in just a few days (watch this space for complete schedule etc. coming up this week) – xoxo

I haven’t seen my grandparents since they’ve moved out of our home a few months go. My mother had planned to visit them this past weekend and I decided to go with her. She’s gone to visit them a few times since they’ve moved out but I’ve avoided the trips because I really didn’t feel like being stuck in the middle of nowhere with a bunch of Jesus freaks and nothing to do.

But, I do love my grandparents very much so I decided to go with my mother this time around.

They seem as happy as they can be, in their current circumstances and I quite enjoyed spending some time with them.. More pictures and details after the break. CLICK CLICK CLICK >>>

My Yahoo account has recently been compromised after I logged into the HTC Friend Stream App on my Android device to view my Flickr stream. Today it has been reported that many people on my contact list have received unsolicited “work at home” scam emails from my yahoo account. I advise you all to ignore these emails as they did not come from me. I will never send out any unsolicited email via my yahoo account.

As it turns out, when looking at my Yahoo login history, there were two mobile logins from Brazil and Morocco around the same time that the unsolicited emails started going out. I also had many of the same emails in the Yahoo drafts. – Upon discovering this, I immediately revoked access to all apps, changed my account password and removed my contact list from Yahoo.

Clearly the HTC apps aren’t secure, and backing up my contacts to Yahoo wasn’t a good idea. – I sincerely apologize to all who have received such unsolicited email and ask that you please ignore/delete any mail from the davidventer87 Yahoo account. I repeat: I will never personally send out anything from my Yahoo email account, ever. I only use the davidventer.net domain.

I also urge HTC Android users to avoid using the Friend Stream app for logging into Twitter, Facebook and Flickr – It is not secure; your entire contact list will be compromised.

Many thanks to those who questioned and approached me about the emails because I NEVER checked my Yahoo account for any activity other than the occasional Flickr login.

PLEASE IGNORE ALL EMAIL COMING FROM
MY DAVIDVENTER87 YAHOO ACCOUNT!

It’s funny how I always get the urge to write when I’m really tired. Perhaps this is a good way to overcome writers-block and actually finish my novel, who knows? Writing in over-tired zombie mode could either be really creative and imaginative or it could be a total disaster. There’s only one way to find out, but I’ll leave that for another day. Right now I just want to share some recent news with you.

In all honesty, not much has changed since my last personal blog update. I’m still a hermit, still single and still working on what I’ve been working on. I have however, made an important decision that should drastically improve my life over the coming months…

Remember how I blogged about why I chose to live a virtual life? Well, after much deliberation I’ve finally come to realize that by living a virtual life I was actually wasting my life. Since becoming addicted to Second Life back in 2007, I’ve never thought that I’d actually see the day where I’d say ‘enough, it’s over.’ But that day has come. For far too long I have invested far too much time, energy and money into virtual living that would’ve taken me to great success in the real world, if only I hadn’t waste it all on fake pixel stuffs.

The virtual world that had first seemed to be a modern matrix-like safe haven of imagination and creative freedom has degraded my life down to the point where I’ve become a hermit, never leaving the house unless I absolutely have to, afraid to deal with real people, not having any friends in the nearby physical world, giving up my real world business to focus only on my virtual life, spending thousands of dollars on virtual goods instead of real clothes and electronics, and thinking that it’s all OK, that it’s normal. Maybe I just took things to the extreme? Maybe there are people who can balance living in both the virtual and the real world without hassle? Either way, I’ve woken up and realized that it was destroying me. It is time to put an end to the madness, time to unplug, time to wake up to reality and to take control of my life, my REAL life.

My premium membership will only expire in a few months so I’ll still be logging on from time to time to catch up with friends and to cash out or give any virtual currency. I’ve got nothing against those who still love and live in Second Life but, it’s not for me and I have to move on to things that can bring real joy. I can understand the great value of living a virtual life if you’re disabled or suffering from serious health issues but for me I see no point in living a virtual life. I’m young, healthy and talented with my whole life in front of me. Throwing away physical awesomeness for a pixel perfect virtual life is really just a waste. Second Life is a fun game or virtual art installation that I could log into from time to time but that’s about it. To live a virtual life as if it were my own is unnatural. I have woken up to reality and this is where I choose to stay.

Getting out of this ditch that I’ve “virtually” lived myself into is going to take some time. I’ll have to start getting used to dealing with real people again, going out to real clubs and hanging out with real friends, although this shouldn’t be too difficult, right? It’s only been a couple of yours since I’ve had any such interaction (apart from the occasional shopping and dining-out with my family and boyfriend).  I guess you’ll have to stay tuned to follow me as I quest to find my way back to reality (LOL?). – On the contrary, maybe I’m pulling this way out of proportion? Either way I know that I’ve had enough of the fake pixel bullshit and I want REAL awesomeness. Goodbye virtual life.

A PLAY ON FABRIC

“This is a value Giorgio Armani has always held on to with determination and consistency.”

“To this end, this season’s Giorgio Armani collection for men reinterprets the classic patterns of men’s fabrics with a touch of irony, emphasising volume, for example tweed, in a range of dolomite-inspired colours, like incredibly light blues and cyan blues, with dots of rust red and oxidized brown.”

“This ‘dolomite’ look is also expressed in the hermetically-sealed zippers on the shirts and matching waistcoats, their minimalism giving a simple, clean cut appearance.”

“It is a look that reappears in the velvet and wide-ribbed corduroy trousers, as well as in the cashmere sweaters that feature prints on light backgrounds for a strong, pleasing contrast.”

“The iconic double-breasted coat is in knitted wool. The fitted, shorter jackets with deconstructed shoulders are matched with 4-dart pants.
The collection demonstrates the new armani silhouette, featuring stretch fabrics throughout, emphasising the concept of elasticity and comfort.”

A MODERN PORTRAIT

“ZZegna style is redefined with the arrival of Paul Surridge. With a contemporary and focused vision, the designer has developed a portrait in which many will identify themselves as it captures the brave and determined spirit of many young men, ready to affirm themselves in a complex, connected, always evolving reality.”

“Surridge is like a contemporary photographer, whose lens progressively focuses on his protagonists to create intriguing variations. A subtle and savvy work that capitalizes on the brand’s vast textile and tailoring tradition to create apparel with a rigorous and essential practicality, able to express status with flashes of technological eccentricity.”

“The main colors are simple, consistent with a collection that is designed to last:
navy blue, charcoal, ebony, khaki, burgundy. Within these deep tones explode brilliant graphic effects of electric blue, sapphire, red-orange, and emerald, often highlighted by a lively play on contrasts.”

“The choice of fabrics, patterns and construction of the garments creates a strong masculine silhouette with softly tailored jackets with precise shoulders that elongate the silhouette and slim pants. The focus is on the upper torso – as a true portrait requires – to frame and emphasize the face. The waistline inches up and the lapels of the jackets with up to 4 buttons become more important, as do the narrow-cut double-breasted jackets inspired by the 20′s. It’s a smart classic, electrified by unexpected elements – nylon hoods, inserts in techno jersey and 3D mesh — in exclusive fabrics such as tweeds, lambs-wool, stretch wool and exceptionally full-bodied mohair. Linear coats with a military touch and large internal pockets — fundamental for today’s must-have wireless devices – complete the formal attire.”

“The need for integrity that underpins the entire collection gains an even stronger appeal in the outerwear. The garments are iconic: coats, car coats, raincoats, parkas, decidedly innovated with intersecting technological materials and accents in rubber and copper. Sturdy fabrics and leathers combined with clean cuts deliver garments with protective volumes, suitable to face today’s fast paced urban lifestyle.”

“Accessories are essential for the new ZZegna man, almost tools of the trade to make life easier, day by day in constant evolution. He chooses shoes with a design that combines elegance and comfort — the thick-soled derby with 3D mesh lining, or the ankle boot with rainproof zipper. He appreciates the set of bags that are extremely practical, such as hold-all bags in coated materials featuring rubber zips or for a more aggressive look, black calf calfskin with copper accents. Completing the series, iPad and computer bags are today’s indispensable travel and adventure companions for all young men in pursuit of lifelong achievements and global style.”
