Bape 2008 Fall/Winter Collection September Releases
Bape has updated its 2008 fall/winter collection with some new releases. Perhaps unfairly stereotyped for its previous years of multi-colored disasters, a look at Bape’s full collection reveals quite the balancing act as certain hype-seeking pieces are often seen side-by-side with much simpler and well-designed garments. As well their footwear which has often been associated as a shoe brand who dared to make the colorways a certain big sporting brand wouldn’t, we see much more simplistic and tonal colorways as well. Among the lesser seen items from Bape this time around is a Macbook case. As always, Bape’s availability is largely limited to Bape Stores in select parts of the world.

THE BAILOUT PLAN
On Sunday, lawmakers unveiled a bill to rescue the nation’s troubled financial system. The $700 billion bailout is the largest in U.S. history and won support from both presidential candidates. The House will vote on the bill on Monday, and the Senate is expected to vote Wednesday. On Saturday, the Senate approved $25 billion in loan guarantees for the auto industry, which will hopefully be used to spark automotive innovation.
In a statement issued Sunday evening, President Bush said “this is a difficult vote, but with the improvements made to the bill, I am confident Congress will do what is best for our economy by approving this legislation promptly“.
House Minority Leader John Boehner told reporters, “Nobody wants to have to support this bill, but it’s a bill that we believe will avert the crisis that’s out there.”
The $700 billion will be disbursed in stages, with $250 billion made available immediately for the Treasury’s use. Unless Congress grants an extension, authority to use the money would expire Dec. 31, 2009. Taxpayer cost is not expected to be near the amount the Treasury invests because the government plans to buy undervalued assets. If the government overpays, it could be left with a net loss which would require the president proposing legislation to recoup the money from the financial industry if net losses to taxpayers occurs five years following the plan’s enactment. Additionally, the Treasury would be able to take ownership states in participating companies.
The bailout is intended to unfreeze the credit markets caused by bad real estate loans that have led to record foreclosures. In the past few days, Wall Street and the banking world have endured collapses and corporate mergers. With New York’s heavy reliance on the financial sector, Mayor Michael Bloomberg has already warned residents to brace for the worst. He ordered all city agencies to cut spending by a total of $1.5 billion over the next two years, and he even introduced the idea of a 7 percent increase in property taxes.

Obama Bitch!!!!!
Obama did his first interview since the Friday night debate with MTV:
Friday night’s often-testy debate with Republican nominee John McCain, specifically McCain’s repeated assertions that his experience makes him the stronger candidate and that Obama “just doesn’t understand” the complexities of issues like foreign policy and the economy.
“I don’t get taken aback by that kind of stuff. The problem was, every time he said it, when he tried to follow it up with an actual statement about policy or his positions about what it was he presumably understood or did ‘get,’ it didn’t make much sense,” Obama told MTV News’ Sway Calloway. “If you look at Iraq, for example, the question was asked, ‘What lessons have you learned?’ and his lesson was ‘Well, we should just stay.’ Well, that’s not a policy. … The question was ‘Should we have gone?’ He says that because he doesn’t have a record to defend himself. We’ve become accustomed in our politics to folks just being able to make stuff up — it’s one of the few areas of public life where the standards somehow are lowered in terms of what you say about other people,” he continued. “For example, he suggested that I’m talking about raising everybody’s taxes, when every analyst has shown I’m actually calling for a tax cut for 95 percent of [American] families.”
“I am talking cutting the taxes for Nurses, Bus Drivers, Cops….not for big time MTV host.”
We thought McCain was trying to mask his true beliefs, knowing that the general public will say “F*ck you”. His decrepit pasty ass did not deal with the questions, and he can lie like a rug. Our next President does not go for manipulation, and fabricated lies on where he stands with his policies.
“F*ck McCain!”

Another Day, Another Ganking
As reported on Livesteez, Sean Kingston thought it would be a good idea to have his sister send that tacky $500,000 crayon box chain via FedEx and got his sh!t ganked. This sounds mighty damn suspicious if you ask us, especially since the package was only insured for $500. He must have been trying to get some of his money back; they have a very strict no refunds policy at Habeeb’s Quicky Mart. SMH
Keri Hilson Does Page Six Magazine
Keri Hilson shares some thoughts on her emergence as a solo artist:
“Everything I write has always been personal. The difference is now I can’t hide behind the person I’m writing for,” says R&B singer-songwriter Keri Hilson. The 25-year-old has been penning hits for stars like Mary J. Blige and Usher since she was 18, and is currently working on Britney Spears’ upcoming album Circus. “Britney already made a comeback!” says Keri, who also wrote the 2007 hit “Gimme More.” “That was a top 10 record.” But now Keri, who’s spending an increasing amount of time in the Big Apple, is finally set to drop her own sure-to-be-a-hit album, In a Perfect World…, in early November.
The truth is that Kerri Hilson is a bad, bad chick and even behind the scenes, she wasn’t really hiding. We are glad to see her develop as a solo artist and can’t wait for the new album. Here’s a note to the album design team: the more pictures of Keri, the better!

Upper Playground Cainchurian Candidate T-Shirt
Upper Playground continues to fight the Democratic fight.
“There was a time when John McCain would speak off the cuff, on record, and in plain view of his traveling press corps. He was the “maverick,” with the ongoing campaign to rid the Republican Party of its dependence on cultural wars and right-wing religious zealots. He was a honored POW. He wanted to respect Geneva Conventions. He even wanted to select Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman as his running mate in these elections.
And then the walls caved in. Palin was picked, the cultural wars created by Richard Nixon in the late 1960’s to attack the liberal East and West coast media bias seeped into his campaign, and the Rove machine has dictated every McCain speech. He wouldn’t allow an unscheduled interview of question. He became a prickly zombie. He became the Manchurian Candidate.

Too Black Guys 2008 Fall “Merchants of Fear: The Beautiful Boogeyman” Collection
Too Black Guys has put together their 2008 fall collection “Merchants of Fear: The Beautiful Boogeyman” as their themes revolve around the political and media arena. Not content with the “world buying into media driven fear” which down the line benefits the political agenda of some, the theme translates into an abrasive series of designs. The designs include the Illegal Aliens tee (xenophobic tendencies in a horror movie graphic), the Health Care Scare tee (mindless drug-buying), the Axis of Evil tee (fear of weapons of mass destruction) and something relevant with the current negative light hip-hop has been portrayed with the Blame Hip Hop tee. If the model looks familiar, it’s none other then part-owner and fledgling hip-hop artist Diz Gibran. Look for the collection be available at DigitalGravel.com.

Obama
Although we believe America and the entire world needs Barack Obama, our people in particular are in desperate need to see a force of change. If our communities had more Barack and Michelle’s out there, where would we be? If you are not feelin’ his politics and question whether the change you seek is really possible in America, the symbolism and principles (strong family, hard work, self-responsibility, intellectualism) he and Michelle represent alone to our youth is worth your vote. .
Although negroes such as Jesse Jackson and Robert Johnson and some racist white folks want to cut off Obama’s nuts, its our generation’s responsibility to get out there in battleground states such as Ohio, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Virginia to pull him over the top. Our ancestors will be watching on November 4th to see if you took 5 minutes out of your day to ride for something other than yourself.
If our country doesn’t elect Obama on November 4th, we deserve to go into another Great Depression.
Diddy and Vibe Teach Loose Girls a Lesson
Diddy and Vibe avoid paying for expensive boob shots:
A hedge-fund hottie who sued Vibe and Diddy after the mag published a topless picture of her at the music mogul’s Hamptons blowout has had her case tossed out. Maria Dominguez, a money manager for a hedge fund, filed the $3 million invasion-of-privacy suit when a shot of her with two other bare-breasted sirens ran in the November 2006 issue of Vibe next to the caption, “Mermaids gone wild.”
This should be a lesson to all of you nasty chicks out there who think you can just walk around, doing whatever you want with your body, and there won’t be any consequences. You know damn good and well you weren’t raised like that, so cut it the hell out. That is exactly what that little heffa gets.
New Zack and Miri Make a Porno Trailer
Kevin Smith's Zack and Miri Make a Porno, one of the 13 movies I'm most excited to see this Fall. There's actually not too much in there all of us adults haven't heard before in a Rogen flick (you know, a lot of f-bombs and explicit language used to describe both male and female genitalia). And since Smith fought hard for and won the right to give this movie an R rating instead of NC-17, we know the movie will never get all that crass.
Still, it's . . . about making a porno. So you'll probably laugh a lot when you see this but will feel pretty dirty afterward. In addition to learning that best friends and roommates Zack and Miri (Rogen and Elizabeth Banks) are having trouble making the rent, we meet some of the other cast members, including the scene-stealing Craig Robinson as their friend who auditions women for the porno and a character played by Traci Lords named "Bubbles" who has an interesting, uh, trick.
Like I said: totally unsuitable for work (unless of course you work in porn), or with kids around, or even puppies and kittens peeking over your shoulder. It is dir-tay and I thought twice before posting — but then I felt inspired by the words of young Silver on 90210 who waxed philosophically that it's a blogger's duty to make trouble. The movie's set to hit theaters on Halloween. To check out the trailer just read more
