Band of Outsiders: Spring 2008

A very well-done fashion spread by Band of Outsiders for next spring. Scott Sternberg shows all wanna be "Prep" high school kids how to really dress preppy by reintroducing the true 70s flavor. The boating atmosphere was due to the collaboration which is ongoing between Sternberg and Sperry. The atmosphere creates an upper class theme and makes me think of what his trip to the Hamptons would look like.

Hilarious Tricycle

Sneaker Freaker

Sneaker Freaker Magazine is out now. It's being release this Saturday at Bodega Boston. Each issue is $10 and jam-packed with tons of crap about the sneakers you love to wear. In it is a article with Claws, an article on a New Zealand native photographer on a mission to uncover the reasoning behind shoes on power lines while documenting it, & some interesting stuff on Air Walk which were vans on steroids because they didn't give blisters to skateboarders and were basically the first shoes designed by boarders.

Harry & His Troops

Have you ever wondered how many people go to the Harry Potter release? Well, neither have I; instead, on the way back home from dinner I saw these people and I will just say "no comment."

Gawker's Apology To The Jews- Hilarious

Gawker Apologizes To The Jews

So our earlier post about our wacky Jew-hating ways got the attention of the folks at Heeb, who were name-checked by Mark "I Like Kike" Caro in his admonitory blog post. The Heebs seem to have understood the humor, but a commenter at their site found us less amusing.

Well, obviously that won't do. We've drafted a sincere and heartfelt apology.

Dear Jew,

We are sincerely sorry for offending your delicate Jew sensibilities. Yes, it's true, there are a few Jews here in the office—we've crunched the numbers, and four out of five Gawker editors have at least some Jew blood in them (not on them!)—and we do think that gives us the right to make Jew jokes. But you know what? None of us are Irish, thank God, and we still knock the micks every now and again. We're kinda of the opinion that the idea of ethnicity and its accompanying stereotypes are inherently hilarious. So, sure, we may not know a lot about life in Israel—do you guys still eat the Palestinian kids after your tanks run them over, or did you stop that once Rabin came into office? Do we still send Israel billions of dollars a year?—but, guess what, we think the comical ways in which your Jew country kowtows to the craziest Jew elements of crazy Jewiness could not be funnier. Hope that's okay!

Shalom,
Balk


I recommend visiting gawker.com on a regular basis because it's pretty much the most regaling blog ever. I can't say the stuff that gawker says because I pretty much have no readers; however, when I get the 500,000 views a day or something like that which gawker gets I will be full of their commentary don't worry.

Wow!

I feel bad for this guy, yet I don't, because he is the one moron rooting for Michael Vick on his dog abuse case. Here is the full article associated with this guy:

"Eris Banks of Conyers, Ga., shows his support for Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick during a baseball game between the Atlanta Braves and Cincincinnati Reds in Atlanta, Wednesday, July 18, 2007. Vick was indicted by a federal grand jury on Tuesday on charges of sponsoring a dogfighting operation so grisly the losers either died in the pit or sometimes were electrocuted, drowned, hanged or shot. (AP Photo/John Bazemore)" How can that guy support Vick on those charges? However, remember he could be innocent. I doubt it. Everyone doubted the Duke lacrosse players; however, it was clear that they were innocent but no one listened to them.

YM: It's Readers Still Stand Strong

"LIFE ON THE WEB: Jane magazine is closing with the August issue and Conde Nast Publications will shut down the Web site Aug. 20, but another company Web site for young women has endured far beyond its magazine's lifetime. YM.com, the digital home of the teen magazine bought and shuttered by Conde Nast in 2004, is seldom remembered, except, perhaps, by its ardent online community, and by the individuals who post on teenvogue.com and have battled it since last winter.

If the YM posters are, as they claim, teenage girls, their memory of the magazine may be foggy. Remaining YM subscribers were moved to the Teen Vogue database, the main impetus for Conde Nast's purchase. (WWD is also owned by Conde Nast). Although the properties' corporate connection is unknown or irrelevant to each community, magazine brand identity is peculiarly strong for posters. Teen Vogue's members, a YM poster explained, are "rich girls mostly who don't give a blank about anyone but themselves and their credit cards." One poster, describing herself as a "proud Teen Voguer" didn't exactly dispel the stereotypes by claiming, "the YMers don't have a heart, they are jealous of us because we have style, and they do not." Yet another taunted in May: "Which magazine is still printing?" "

I was clicking around on WWD and found the most hilarious article. Just when you think teenage girls can't get any lamer. I read this.

Blue in Green- A Men's Lifestyle Store

I came across Blue in Green, a jean utopia, which has every pair of Japanese jeans from raw sugarcanes to somet. While exploring around, I also stumbled across a compilation of newspaper articles & featured press articles about them from the New York Times to a magazine from Japan. The articles were all neatly compiled on their website. If you want to check it out go to Blueingreen.com. You may also learn something about denim such as that Union sewing machines were used for old Levis.
