Jay-Z Interview with Howard Stern



Today Jay-Z stopped by the Howard Stern studio to do an exclusive hour long interview. If you are a fan of him, a fan of music, a fan of anything, you NEED to find an hour to listen to this interview. Stern asked questions all over the map from his relationship with Oprah, to his feelings about his father leaving him at a young age, to his days as a teenage crack dealer, to his thoughts on to how his art relates to everyone, and much more. Not only does Jay answer every single one of his questions, but all of his answers are completely sincere and honest. I always find radio interviews to be the most interesting for the reason that they are unedited and truthful. Enjoy.

Altec Lansing Octiv Stage iPad Speaker Dock






Really like the simple design of this iPad Dock. To me most of the iPad speak docks look awkward and disproportional, but Altec Lansing has avoided this en route to designing the most elegant dock. Two nice features of the Dock are the rotating connection arm that allows you to use your iPad in portrait or landscape and the ability to tilt the dock which facilitates different viewing angles. Also should note that the dock is additionally compatible with both iPhones and iPods. As with all Altec Lansing products this dock is GMS-shielded to block out any static when in use with your iPhone. In stores this week for $150.

Chick Bruin's Fan Shows The World How Strong/Dumb She Is





So this is what girls do when they go to the bathroom together. This girl was dumb enough to kick a hole in a pillar at the TD Garden, dumb enough to record it, and dumb enough to post it on YouTube. She has since been busted and was forced to pay for the damages. The Bruins brilliant marketing team capitalized on this video and made a pretty funny add from it.

The Beanie - Undefeated





Good toques are always hard to find, but they are a necessity if you live in a spot that endures long winters. At the price of $18, if these fit good, I will grip all 3 of these. Thank you UNDFTD!

Canada Goose X Concepts - Alberta Vest




Canada and Massachusetts’ Concepts recently worked together to create these two colorways (Red / Military Olive & Red / Tan) of the Alberta Vest. Concepts modified the original Alberta vest by adding an Arctic-Tech waterproof shell with 625 fill power white duck down. The vest also includes a removable hood with fleece lined pockets. A release is slated for November 19th, 2010 at Concepts. Not sure how these will look in person since they appear to be pretty bulky, but I hope the fit is good and that we see them somewhere in Alberta. Great to see all these collabs with Canada Goose, I expect to see many more in the months ahead. Check out October's Very Own collab with Canada Goose on the Chilliwack jacket here if you have not yet.
