QUAIL
"After merely two years of building her dream into a reality, Quail founder and designer, Michelle Williams has disregarded boundaries and created somewhat of her own underground empire. The concept behind Quail is a direct result of Williams desire to create beautiful clothes for the fashion forward girl at an affordable price. Admiring the styles of those with a uncanny ability to take risks and create a polished look, Williams encourages her customer to have fun with fashion. Mixing a flea market find and with one of her ultra-feminine blouses or signature high-wasted skirts is one of her quintessential Quail girl ensembles. Check the collection out for yourself today at Cultist Shop, the only online shop dedicated strictly for the ladies." *thehundreds*
TWO BLACK GUYS 08 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." *hypebeast*
*BURN RUBBER SHOULD GET THIS STUFF IN...WILL LET YOU KNOW ASAP"

Short Selling Banned!!!!!
The American Government has announced a ban on short selling Financial Institutions' stock.
What is short selling?
Short selling, essentially is a bet that a stock price will fall. In a nut shell, the short seller borrows shares from a broker, for example 100 shares at $10 a share. The short seller then sells the borrowed shares and gross $1,000. When the stock price fall to $5 a share, the short seller buys back the 100 shares at $5 a share, for a total of $500. The borrowed 100 shares are returned to the broker, and the short seller profits $500. But on the other hand, if the short seller miscalculate and the price increase, he will lose money. Take that 100 shares at $10 a share, if the price increase to $12 a share, the short seller will have to return the 100 shares that cost him $1200 to repurchase, resulting in a loss of $200.
So why is it banned? Like I said earlier, short sellers hope for failing stock prices; this idea is contrary to the expectations that companies will prosper over time. The idea that companies will be successful, is what drives the American Economy. Short selling has the potential to hurt all those shareholders whom buy stock and hold them for long periods time, hoping that the company will grow and the stock price will increase.Due to the "Financial Crisis," and falling price of Financial stocks, short sellers are probably all over the economic downturn. Short sellers, can drive down the stock prices, which will deter people from buying into these companies. If no one is buying stock, and the price continue to fall, eventually the company will collapse (Lehman Brothers) or reach the point where the Government will have to save them (AIG and $85 Billion).
Right now, short sellers are equivalent to kicking a dog in the leg, but the dog only has 3 legs to begin with. The dog will fall if someone doesn't help. If this dog fall, we are fucked!!!!

YO BABY TAKE THIS LIGHT AND ENJOY IT...
SO WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT IS LIQUID LIGHT.
CREATED BY DESIGNER CHRISTINA FERRAZ RIGO
IN SHORT...LIGHT IS NOT ATTATCHED TO THE BULB ITSELF BUT IS ITS OWN ENTITY
NOW...THIS IS ONE OF THE ILLEST INNOVATIONS THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN IN MY WHOLE ENTIRE LIFE...
BUT...
HOW BRIGHT DOES IT GET???
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN IT SPILLS(because it will spill)
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN A LIL KID DRINKS THIS EXTREMELY FASCINATING LOOKING LIQUID
WHAT HAPPENS IF I DIP A LIGHT BULB IN THIS???
CAN I THROW IT UP IN THE SKY AND MAKE IT RAIN LIGHT???
CAN I THROW IT IN THE CLUB AND MAKE IT RAIN LIGHT ON THEM HOES???
WHAT IF I WANNA WEAR IT SO I CAN LIGHT UP?!?!?!?
HUH?!?!?!?
THIS IS WHAT THE DESIGNER HAD TO SAY:
"My first lamp explores the greatest metaphorical potential of my project by presenting liquid light in its most pure state: as a liquid contained in a bottle that can be manipulated as liquids normally are. Along with this bottle, I have created a set of two glasses that represent a lamp and a bulb – see pictures on the right. By pouring the liquid light into the glasses, the object meaning is given to the light – two new lamps have been created. However, the liquid remaining in the bottle reminds you of its intangible essence – there is no need of a lamp in order to have light. Light remains unattached to an object and able to be placed in any imagined context. I have used the quotidian gesture of pouring as a way to attach, or detach, light to its archetypes.
For the other lamp, I worked with the pervasive idea of the lamp. I worked with proportions and shape in order to create a perfectly recognizable archetype of a lamp. Alongside this process, I implemented the idea of liquid light by using the archetype of liquid, a tap. Therefore, I created a lamp that looks typical when first seen, but creates a hint of curiosity and delight when a closer look is given and the tap on it is noticed. The user starts then to imagine how the lamp would work, and ends up discovering that the lamp switches on – gives light – when the liquid light starts to fill it. In order to switch it off, the tap has to be open and the liquid released."

THROW YOUR CELL PHONE IN THE GARBAGE!!!
SO I WAS IN MY TECHNOLOGY CLASS TODAY AND SOMEHOW WE ENDED UP ON A TANGENT ABOUT THE HARMFUL AFFECTS OF CELL PHONES...
PRETTY MUCH...
PRETTY MUCH...
- KEEPING YOUR CELL PHONE IN YOUR POCKET CAN DECREASE THE FERTILITY OF MEN AND WOMEN
- CELL PHONE USAGE CAN CAUSE BLOOD THICKENING AROUND THE AREA WHERE YOU USE IT...A.K.A YOUR EAR!!!...BUT SERIOUSLY IT THICKENS THE BLOOD IN THAT SECTION OF THE BRAIN ANNNNNNNNNND...WHEN CHARGING YOUR CELL PHONE THE FREQUENCY IS MULTIPLIED GREATLY THUS...WHEN YOU TALK ON YOUR CELL PHONE WHILE IT IS CHARGING THE AFFECTS ARE SO SO SO SOOOO MUCH WORSE
- IN GERMANY THERE IS A CELL PHONE SAFETY STICKER YOU CAN PUT ON YOUR CELL PHONE BATTERY TO PREVENT THESE HORRIBLE AWFUL THINGS FROM HAPPENING...BUUUUUUUUUT...IT IS VERY VERY HARD TO GET A HOLD OF
- AND NO I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS AVAILABLE IN THE STATES
- LASTLY THE BEST PART...PUTTING 4 CELL PHONES TOGETHER IN THE SHAPE OF A CROSS CAN POP POPCORN IF YOU CALL THEM ALL AT THE SAME TIME BECAUSE OF THE VERY HIGH DANGEROUS (but cool if you want some popcorn) FREQUENCIES...
LIKE THIS...
SO THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS TO THROW YOUR CELL PHONE AWAY UNLESS YOU WANT SOME POPCORN...

LAW 6
"EVERYTHING IS JUDGED BY ITS APPEARANCE; WHAT IS UNSEEN COUNTS FOR NOTHING. NEVER LET YOURSELF GET LOST IN THE CROWD, THEN, OR BURIED IN OBLIVION. STAND OUT. BE CONSPICUOUS, AT ALL COST. MAKE YOURSELF A MAGNET OF ATTENTION BY APPEARING LARGER, MORE COLORFUL, MOE MYSTERIOUS THAN THE BLAND AND TIMID MASSES." -ROBERT GREENE
happy first days of school everyone (booooooooo school!!!)
