2008 Rooftop Skate Jam




Last weekend, New Design High School in New York’s Lower East Side played host to the Roof Top Rampage Skateboard Showdown. Much like previous Billy Rohan and company initiated skate events including the King of Spring Skateboard Showdown, another strong turnout was on hand. The definitive highlight of the event was Luis Tolentino’s record breaking 45 inch ollie which in the process of setting a world record, also earned him a cool $800 bucks.

Don't Count Us Out Just Yet



For those that are following the NBA Finals check out my team going to work with the Celtics. First quarter was like a head-start for the Lakers with Kobe and Pau Gasol dropping buckets left and right. Celtics tried to come back, blah blah blah, lost, but did an okay job. The Lakers Ain't Done Yet!!

P.S. Derek Fisher is a good player and all but he continues to be everyones bitch. Getting crossed, falling for head fakes, and even taking numerous jumpshots to the face. Not saying it doesn't happen to all players...but...he just seems to be the league leader of gettin bitched.

Mark Morrison- Return of the Mack



need i say more?

Another Flashing Lights Video?



As we all know, Kanye is a fan of making multiple alternate videos to some of his singles (this guy got money to spend). Just Like The "Jesus Walks" trilogy, here spawns the third video for Kanye's latest single "Flashing Lights". The videos seem to be confusing but pleasing Kanye fans at the same time. I didn't cover the second video but its the most literal, sensible one. The first video with Rita G doing a slow motion act in nothing but some lingerie, directed by Spike Jonze, left me asking a million questions.

This third installment is more of a horror flick/mystery film with the classic unusual girl and the who-did-it? death after the lights cut back on. The song is supposed to describe the down side of fame and materialism. Its hard to see that judging by what the videos illustrate.

I might be the only one but everyday I'm becoming less and less a Kanye West fan. I used to follow his work a lot but now I think that the money is getting to his head. If you disagree then compare his old work to what he's putting out now. Before he was more about hood happenings, family, friends, and basically stuff goin on with him that I could relate to. Now-a-days he only cares about clothes, and material things. That Great confidence he used to have has turned into super cockyness......but I'm Just Sayin.

Yves Saint Laurent Dies At 71

YSL
(Yves Saint Laurent at a fashion presentation in Paris.)


Legendary French designer Yves Saint Laurent has died today in his Paris home after battling illness. There is virtually nothing about the way we dress or the way we shop now that was not a result of his 44-year career.

He created the wardrobe of the modern woman (the pea coat, the pants suit, the peasant blouse), opened our eyes to ethnic beauty and global style, and set us on a course toward the democratization of fashion, even as he elevated the rarefied haute couture to "the rank of art," as French President Nicolas Sarkozy said Monday.

Coming onto the scene at the age of 21, Saint Laurent would enjoy many years of great success. His death is a HUGE loss to the fashion industry, I don't even believe that the clothing will still be the same. Yves Saint Laurent was, and still is my favorite designer in upscale fashion.
