Nike SB 2014 Spring/Summer Renewal Collection
Nike SB has unveiled its “Renewal” collection for Spring/Summer 2014. Wanting to offer its team riders shoes that would let their feet recuperate, Nike SB has reworked Stefan Janoski, Eric Koston and Paul Rodriguez‘s signature shoes with two of Nike’s most important technologies: Air and Free. All three silhouettes now boast Free and Air-cushioned soles for additional comfort when not skating. Both Koston and P-Rod’s models now feature Hyperfuse uppers along with Free tech in the forefoot and Air in the heel. Janoski’s model goes for a mesh upper with a woven tongue sitting atop a speckled Free and Air sole. All three models stick to a color palette of black and green. Look for all three at Nike starting February 26.
Amazing Tongue Twister Rap from A to Z
FULL LYRICS HERE:
I…Adamantly attack the alphabet
with an anecdotal algorithm made of Adamantium
I’m like an Adderrall addicted anaconda or an alcoholic
an asshole, like A-Rod, no anabolic s,
But I, brutally and beautifully butcher the banging beat
brushin’ bubbly allover your booby and booty beef
cause I’m a carpenter, when I come carvin’ your carcass
leaving all these carp fish crushed on the carpet
crumble chron’ with my Colorado and my Cal cronies
cram it full of condiments like it’s a Calzone
delicious! but I didn’t drive and drink
whether diamonds or dimes man I’m diving deep like an
electric eel, I’m elegantly eloquent and every cent I’ve ever earned
just entered me in the election
I got eleven brains like an enormously educated Einstein with Elephantitis
of the erection
a freak! I’m fighting with a flatfooted felon
five falcons just flew to a fountain, and fell in
Googling googly-eyed girls to get inside
golly gee from GlasGow to Guatemela’s gentrified
a hippopotamus is high on heroin he heckles me
and hires Haitian Hank to hand his hoe a hysterectomy
in hateful hieroglyph I hurl-out hyperbolic hubris
and hang with Hipster Helen the hooker with huge hips
I’m ill. I’m Icarus. I ignite idiots in idioms and issues
jumpy jargon I joust like Jacare jivin Japanese Judo and Jiujitsu
killin em like a kid.. got a Kilogram of Ketamine for Kwanza
in a knitted Kimono made out of Komodo Dragon skin
I’m richer than a Klingon kickin it at the Kremlin
but I kick through your door, kall me Kramer Kardashian
Lethal. Literally litter a little limerick
that be littler than a Leprechaun
a menace that’ll manifest the melancholy mayhem
makin a metamorphosis until mechanized like Megotron
Nick Nolte: a nerdy native of Nebraska
needs a neon ninja and a nectarine from NASA
Ominously, I mean it’s obvious you see a:
orthodontist oozing out oodles of onomatopoeia
Oswalt: Patton
pickin a pocket pluckin a patent
I pickle purple poop in Patron for pure passion
I got a question, I gotta quiz ya
should I quirk up the quotes and make the flow quicker
really getting ready for the revolution
reeled a rotten rhythm ring around a Russia Ronda Rousey resort
serve a simple sentiment a simile that’s smokin
like a sheet of Sudafed i’m swiftly swimming like a seahorse
TITTIES ON ATILLA TELL A TELLER THAT’LL TOE TAG
TERMINATOR GUN INSIDE A TURTLE TATTERED TOTE BAG
THUGS
ARE UN-AMERICAN UNATTRACTIVE AND UNWANTED AS AN UGLY PAIR OF UGG’S
VIVID AND VIVACIOUSLY VENOMOUS
With the wicked wombats only walking where women is
gettin xenophobic at the Xanadu
XoXo
Yippy-ki-yay,!
Yours’ Truly,
Mac
YES YO!!!
Oh shit, I forgot Z….Zebra.
The Inspiration Pad
By way of the NSFW American Apparel Tumblr, I found myself reading an article on My Modern Met staring at notebooks whose lines had apparently gotten drunk and started zig zagging off of the page. It was like a classic Composition Notebook had decided that it all of a sudden hated its job and set out to do its own thing, relinquishing order for a welcome bit of chaos.
The item in question is The Inspiration Pad and it is what was explained: it’s a notebook that is all sorts of kooky and decidedly all over the place. It’s kind of like a joke book without any jokes being told. It is a notebook that makes it’s users rethink how it is to be used: it forces you to get creative.
The pad is made by TM, a design and advertising studio started by Marc Thomasset. The goal of the firm is to “define, differentiate and drive action in a fresh and innovative way.” The product has been out for about a year now and obviously rocketed to being an item associated with creative freedom for the Internet generation, for a group who don’t actually need to physically write but instead could use piece of paper as a foil for drawing or sketching or doodling. In that regard, the product is almost a joke, using “inspiration” as a trendy subject to get people to buy it because as a DIY means of finding yourself. On the other hand, it just looks cool.
That’s just it: the notebook does fucking look awesome. The bending lines and maze work created warps the mind and the different variations on the theme make you want to get the notebook to see just how many ways Thomasset could think to reform the blue lines. The Pad is currently sold out but, if you are interested, there are some new ideas he has thought up for the next incarnation of that you can check out here.

Nike Robotics by Simeon Georgiev
Following his LEGO Streetwear Figurine project, Bulgarian artist Simeon Georgiev presents a new series of designs exclusively for Highsnobiety. The renderings are based on the desires of futuristic, intelligent humanoid robots. Undoubtedly, either the robots themselves or their owners will want then to look stylish, and as such, Georgiev took Nike‘s Air Max 1 and Roshe Run silhouettes and adapted them for the future. The sneakers expand on the sporting giant’s iconic designs – maintaining each pair’s distinct lines and elements – and update them with a blocky, rigid feel. The theme is continued throughout with clean, simple color panels and lacing systems more advanced than Marty McFly’s Power Laces. The effect is seamless integration from the sole of the sneaker to the joints and legs of the robot, resulting in a flawless interpretation of two timeless silhouettes.

Facebook to Acquire WhatsApp for $16 Billion USD
Facebook will soon be the proud new owner of WhatsApp, but has said that it will allow the popular messaging app to retain its brand and operate independently. The deal includes $12 billion in Facebook shares, $4 billion in cash and an extra $3 billion in Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) for employees. As to what Facebook is getting through the deal, WhatsApp boasts some incredible figures including over 450 million users a month with 70% of those people online on a given day, a message volume nearing the global telecom SMS volume and more than 1 million new registered users a day.
Facebook founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg commented on the acquisition:
“WhatsApp had every option in the world, so I’m thrilled that they chose to work with us. I’m looking forward to what Facebook and WhatsApp can do together, and to developing great new mobile services that give people even more options for connecting. I’ve also known Jan for a long time, and I know that we both share the vision of making the world more open and connected. I’m particularly happy that Jan has agreed to join the Facebook board and partner with me to shape Facebook’s future as well as WhatsApp’s.”

Red Bull Storm Chase Final 2014: Windsurfing through hurricane conditions
Frenchman Thomas Traversa was crowned the champion of the storm surfing universe. Despite weighing just 60 kilos, Traversa won the final leg of the Red Bull Storm Chase in hurricane conditions off the coast of Cornwall, UK, in front of Marcilio Browne from Brazil and Leon Jamaer from Germany.
With building-high waves and gusts of wind reaching 70 knots, only the best were nominated to participate in the “Red Bull Storm Chase”. During an 18-month holding-period, ten of the world’s best windsurfers waited patiently to catch three of the biggest storms on oceans around the globe to determine who was the very best. After Mission 1 in Ireland (January 2013) and a second mission in Tasmania, Australia (August 2013), Red Bull Storm Chase picked the storm-ravaged coast of Cornwall, U.K., for the third and final location for a showdown between the remaining four.
