Puma Adds The First Round To Mongolian BBQ









Launched in 2005, Puma’s Mongolian BBQ program is the most inspired customization project out. What it lacks in footwear choices, it has made up for in materials and sheer fun. They’ve added the First Round, for the first time folding a high top in with the RS-100 and Basket (the original shoe was the Cabana Racer). A good silhouette to play with, here’s hoping the ingredients to cook with are strong as well.

Purple Tomatoes May Help Prevent Cancer









Researchers Test New Breed of Tomatoes Loaded With Antioxidants.

A new breed of tomatoes that are specially engineered to have extra antioxidants may help prevent cancer, according to a new study.

Scientists in Europe transferred certain genes of snapdragons to tomatoes, creating a tomato with a dark purple color and loads of antioxidants. Researchers tested the tomatoes on cancer-prone mice; they found that a diet supplemented by purple tomato powder increased the life span of the mice compared to mice eating a standard diet or a diet supplemented with red tomato powder.

Purple pills, purple drank & now purple veggies!!! Purple is the new green!!!!

A Milli A Milli A Milli A Milli












Lil’ Wayne’s birthday celebration in Miami became a magical one when Baby aka Birdman surprised him with a gift of 1 Million dollars in cold hard cash. We guess they take that “Cash Money Millionaire” stuff literally.

No McBush!!!!!









Seymour Chwast, one of the most important graphic designers of the 20th century and co-founder of Push Pin Studios with Milton Glaser and Edward Sorel, has designed an anti-McCain/Bush t-shirt for Freshjive. The shirt releases this week.

Mr. Chwast first gained notoriety in the 1950s with a playful expressive approach to type and layout based on revivalism which was a radical alternative to the Swiss formalism at the time. As well as this initial design, look out for a group of limited edition designs that Chwast will be releasing in the Freshjive line in 2009. Most of the profits will be directly contributed to the Barack Obama campaign.

M by Megu







Megu always had the makings of a superlative nightlife destination.

And now it may have a chic lounge to match that vision… introducing M by Megu. In its previous incarnation, “M” was Megu’s handsome, pre-dinner cocktail den.

Cocktails come exotic and authentic. Try The Tokyo Celebrity, a refreshing mix of sugarcane shochu, champagne, and fresh lemon juice, or indulge in Grey Goose bottle service. Of course, you’ll want to pair your drinks with Japanese BBQ-style Kobe Beef Sliders, Megu’s classic Crispy Shrimp, or perfect King Crab Croquettes.

Oh, one final tip… the cocktail-serving M girls (that’s what you’ll call them) will now don designer swimwear.

Supra Skytop | Black/Purple and Blue Tiger







New colorways of the Supra Skytop drop with increasing regularity. As the signature shoe of the stylish Chad Muska, the Skytop has certainly benefited from regular releases and is becoming something of the “IT” shoe for fall 2008. The two new versions stick to the basics, combining simple uppers with bold eyelet treatments. Black/Purple/Grey is no lose, and the blue tiger strip look has its merits too.
