Nike “Kill Bill” Pack
Nike borrowed the alias, Black Mamba, from one of its headlining athletes, Kobe
The pack exhibits the Big Nike Hi and Auto Flight Hi. The base-black Big Nike Hi is splattered with blood stains and thereby congruent with any Tarantino film. As for the Auto Flight Hi, it utilizes the red and yellow color scheme that is consistent with the DVD packaging as well as the jumpsuit that Uma Thurman dons during the film. Nike cites Kobe “Black Mamba” Bryant as their connection to Kill Bill with clever insoles. The insoles of each shoe display a “Death List” in the hand-scribbled styling of Uma Thurman. Kobe’s Death List marks such NBA adversaries as Ray

LOPEZ ISLAND
Today's estate is quite the compound. It sits on 17 south facing acres on Lopez Island, one of the San Juan Islands in Washington state. This property has a large main home on a peninsula, three guest houses, a barn with office and a greenhouse with surrounding gardens and orchards, a lighted tennis courts, pond with pier, small sandy beach, and best of all, a cute shingled treehouse. The main house has a casual feel and great water views. The kitchen seems a bit crazy with its red and yellow floor and retro yellow stove but the rustic nature of this home is part of its charm.
listed at $4.75 million.

Swizz Beats and Alicia Keys secretly engaged.
Check out this hot new story about Swizzy and Ms. Keys courtesy of US magazine
Alicia Keys had a lot to smile about on her 29th birthday Jan. 25: an engagement ring from her producer beau, Swizz Beatz!
A pal tells UsMagazine.com that Beatz, 31 (who is currently divorcing wife Mashonda), proposed with a 7-carat sparkler right before her big day; the happy couple were photographed strolling on a Hawaii beach the day of the proposal, Jan. 24.
Keys’ rep denies she is engaged, but another friend reveals, “They are currently in Hawaii celebrating the engagement and her birthday. She feels blessed.” Adds the pal: “She is thrilled. She is with the man who has inspired so much of her music and her new album [The Element of Freedom].”
Swizz is equally smitten with Keys.”What we have is so precious,” he gushed to the New York Daily News last year.

Steve Jobs unveils the iPad
After nearly a decade of rumors and speculation, Apple's finally unveiled the iPad. It's a half-inch thick and weighs just 1.5 pounds, with a 9.7-inch capacitive touchscreen IPS LCD display, and it's running a custom 1GHz Apple "A4" chip developed by the P.A. Semi team, with a 10-hour battery life and a month of standby. It'll come in 16, 32, and 64GB sizes, and it's got the expected connectivity: very little. There's a 30-pin Dock connector, a speaker, a microphone, Bluetooth, 802.11n WiFi and optional 3G, as well as an accelerometer and a compass. There's also a keyboard dock, which connects underneath in the portrait orientation, support for up to 1024x768 VGA out and 480p composite out through new dock adapter cables, and a camera attachment kit that lets you import photos from your camera over USB or directly through an SD reader. The device is managed by iTunes, just like the iPhone -- you sync everything over to your Mac. As expected, it can run iPhone apps -- either pixel-for-pixel in a window, or pixel-doubled fullscreen -- but developers can also target the new screen size using the updated iPhone OS SDK, which is available today. The 3G version runs on AT&T and comes with new data plans: 250MB for $14.99 and an unlimited plan for $29.99 a month contract-free. Activations are handled on the iPad, so you can activate and cancel whenever you want. Every iPad is unlocked and comes with a GSM "micro-SIM," so you can use it abroad, but there aren't any international deals in place right now -- Steve says they'll be back "this summer" with news on that front.
It starts at $499 for 16GB, 32GB for $599, and $699 64GB. Adding 3G costs a $130 per model, so the most expensive model (64GB / 3G) is $829. The WiFi-only model will ship in 60 days, and the 3G models will come in 90.

Bow wow asks the ladies ''What does it matter?''
Why Does It Matter? The “Jealous Woman”:
I’ve noticed over my 22 years of living that yes women can be difficult, and i call myself a ladies man thinking i have them figured out. But as men we will never understand women. One thing i cant get a grip on is why do women get mad if they hear you are sleeping or talking to another woman if she doesn’t belong to you? Is it because we had sex and u feel like we have something? do you feel i belong to you? if we don’t have an understanding then why do you want to know where am i? why are you getting mad when you see me out at the club with other girls? I don’t mean to sound mean but.. WE ARE NOT TOGETHER WE JUST HAD SEX THATS IT!!! gnr so ladies i ask… is it a territorial thing? just because you had sex with this man makes it feel ok to act out as a girlfriend? or is it that you like this man, and want him to change and settle down because YOU feel thats best. Or maybe thats just what you want. Answers from both Men and Women…… S.moss

Bike Lanes in the Sky Concept
Kolelinia is an innovative bike lane concept by Martin Angelov that consists of strong steel wires for riding our own bicycles up in the sky.
The wire connects directly to the bike handle with a hook, and just in case you still feel unsafe, the hook has a hole for a carabiner and harness.
