Timepiece brand Casio has shed some light on a Detroit based boutique (Sneaker&Clothing Pusher) Burn Rubber to bring this beautiful and may we add, mustfuckinghave G-Shock DW-5600 model.
We don't know what the release date is, as we stumbled across this beauty while browsing your favorite "You're not up on this" website, but since we're hawking this piece we'll let you know when we find out.
Dope.

Video: Bye Bye T.I.P...
So a year and a day. Note that the "Day" is for enabling the commited to shave 15% off of their sentence on the terms of good behavior. T.I.P could serve an estimated 298 days — or a little less than 10 months. He is expected to get credit for the two weeks he sat in jail after his arrest and before posting a $3 million bond. He heads up the river on May 19th.
Gonna bump some T.I tunage in his memory.

Video: Your Childhood Was So Wild Until...
...You had to grow up and pay bills.
" An adaptation of Maurice Sendak’s classic children’s story, where Max, a disobedient little boy sent to bed without his supper, creates his own world–a forest inhabited by ferocious wild creatures that crown Max as their ruler. "
Luckily director Spike Jonze has brought one of the most memorable childrens' books to the big screen with his cinematic rendition of "Where The Wild Things Are".
The book, which has been around for almost half a century remains a fvorite to many parents in their night time reading repertoire.
The film is set to release later this year/early 2010.

" The fare hikes on the subway and buses, including an increase in the base subway and bus fare to $2.50, from $2, will take effect on May 31.
The service cuts are far reaching. They include the elimination of 35 bus routes and two subway lines, the W and Z. Off-peak and weekend subway, bus and commuter rail service will also be cut back.

Misc: We'll Be On Cloud Nine, In Our Treehouse!!!...
Message from the designer Dietrich Wegner:
" Often my material choice is made to contradict an aspect of an image and strives towards a realistic depiction of the image. A mushroom cloud is fluffy like synthetic cotton, yet a Poly-fil mushroom cloud becomes fun and cozy.
The ephemeral beauty of a mushroom cloud frightens me, how it floats for a minute, delicate and blooming, yet remains chaotic and utterly destructive. I experience a contradiction between what my eyes enjoy and what my mind knows. "

One of our colleagues is seriously obsessed with this Lady Gaga. Wale from "Da Capital" linked up with her via "Label Resources" to produce the single off of his upcoming album Defecit.

Now...don't be ignorant. Upon first glance at the record most of you are scratching your head asking, who the Fu*k is a GLC??? Well GLC is the artist that this record is from. He's a Chicagoan artist on the G.O.O.D roster and has been putting in work for quite some time now.
They changed the production to reflect the marketing on this one but it's not that much of a drastic change to disrupt the conveyance of the tracks mood.
The previous version, however, will be the version that stays in our hearts.

Other novelty lollipops have non-edible centers, such a flashing light, embedded within the candy; there is also a trend of lollipops with sticks attached to a motorized device that makes the entire lollipop spin around in one's mouth.

On The Town: Times Square Has Never Seen A Samurai Attack...
...Until recently.
Introducing Inakaya.
" Think of Inakaya as Momofuku Ko meets Medieval Times, just without any jousting—yakikata (grill chefs) serve food on wooden paddles, samurais have Japanese screaming matches involving red snapper, and you're right smack in the middle of the whole dance.
But even if you're not into Japanese meat theatrics, there's a simple, traditional, succulent meal of fresh grilled meats, fish and veggies to be had. In front of you will be your yakikata, kneeling on a platform beside a grill, separated from you by only a moat of produce, chicken thigh and fish (try the rare Kinki fish, flown in daily from Tokyo) that will soon be your freshly grilled dinner. "
Screaming samurai slicing and dicing our teriyaki grilled salmon right in front of us to either sheer delight or rambunctious confusion sounds like a date to remember. Take her here, she'll love you for it.
Inakaya is located at:
NY Times building
231 W. 40th St
(at 8th Ave)
Times Square
New York, NY 10018
