adidas adiTennis 2009 Spring/Summer “Slit” Sneakers
**I thought these were dope... The low top version is WACK tho! AND... I don't even like Adidas, like at all! LoL... Sorry to break every ones heart but, Shell Toes are played out & thats all Adidas had going for them!**The adiTennis sneakers from adidas have been one of the brands more classier and simpler silhouettes within their archives. Having seen a selection of colorways already drop this year, adidas takes it to the next level, adding a “slit” premium look to the classic model. Available in both a high top and low cut version, we get a preview of various colorways set to make a debut at select adidas retailers very soon.
How To: Rip Blu-ray Discs
Included digital copies are still the exception rather than the norm in the Blu-ray world. Lame. You'd like to rip those discs for playback elsewhere, right? But there is something you should know first. And that is this: Ripping Blu-ray discs sucks. Hard. It takes forever, eats up a ton of hard drive space, and for all practical purposes requires software that isn't free. It's like trying to rip a DVD in 1999: computers still have a long way to go before this is easy.
But just because it's hard doesn't mean it's impossible, and once your system is set up it's something you can start before you go to bed and have finished for you in the morning. Here we've outlined exactly what you need to rip your 1080p Blu-ray discs (the ones you own, of course) and then convert the video into a more manageable file size for watching on a computer, phone, game console or PMP. Because hey, you own this movie, and you should be able to watch it on whatever device you want.
But you'll have to earn that right. Let's start this painful process, shall we?
What's you'll need:
• A Windows PC (the Blu-ray ripping process is, at the moment, Mac-unfriendly. I used Windows 7 Beta 64-bit and all the following software is Windows-only)
• AnyDVD HD (free fully-functional 21-day trial, $80 to keep) for ripping and decrypting BD discs
• RipBot264 (free) for transcoding from AVC (you'll also need a few codecs to go along with it: .NET Framework 2.0, the avisynth and ffdshow codec packs, and the Haali media splitter)
• tsMuxeR (free) for muxing (may not be necessary)
• A Blu-ray drive (I used OWC's Mercury Pro external)
• A ton of free hard drive space (80GB or so to be safe)
• A decent understanding of how video codecs and containers work (Matt's Giz Explains has everything you need)
Paypal Makes Mistake, Accuses Man Of Pumping $81,400,836,908 Worth Of Gas
Juan Zamora is a man. A man with a '94 Camaro which undoubtedly has some Rad to the power of Sick flames painted on the sides. Anyway, he bought $26 worth of petrol at the station and paid with his Paypal debit card. Only problem was, Paypal reported he pumped $81,400,836,908 worth of petrol! Now that's a lot of hot air gas! He only learned of the astounding figure when he received an email later that afternoon informing him that his debit card, which started out with $90 on it, was maxed out."Somebody from a foreign country who spoke in broken English argued with me for 10 to 15 minutes," Zamora said. " 'Did you get the gas?' he asked. Like I had to prove that I didn't pump $81,400,836,908 in gas!"
He would have needed more than 3 billion fill-ups of the amount he actually pumped into his tank in order to reach that outrageous sum. When Zamora returned to the Conoco gas station, he said, the attendant would not believe him until he showed her the printout of the PayPal receipt.
Finally Juan was able to set the record straight. And if you even think about trying to pull any of that nonsense on me, Paypal, and you are going to get it. And by 'it' I mean some provocative photos of yours truly and a firebomb. ZOMG, look at the hair on -- *HORF* uh-oh.... em>*WHOOOSH!* Justice: a dish best served flaming.
One-Terabyte Apple Time Capsule for $387!!!
If Apple's Time Capsule excites you, you will be happy to learn that the 1TB model is now available for $387 down from $500. This may signal the introduction of new models soon. That discount is huge. The Apple refurb store is also selling them for the cheap, but the ones at Amazon are completely new. Does this mean we will have new Time Capsules soon, with more storage space and Mac OS X Server-derived Software Update caching, like 9to5mac speculates?
Converse Japan 2009 Sneakers March Releases

Nike SB Blazer Premium Hybrid Low
via. NK.Clark Hassler teamed up with Nike SB as part of their custom series. The result is a hybridized combination of two Nike Skateboarding favorites.
The Nike SB Blazer Premium Hybrid Low features the upper of the Blazer, done up in premium leather. Rather than use the typical Blazer sole, this time the vulcanized sole typically found on the Zoom Harbor. The uppers are made up of black leather and a gum sole, and features a unique yellow chucks-like pinstripe around the mid sole.
We know these two kicks work well on their own, but what do you think about this hybrid?
Available at Caliroots for $100.

CAVS 88, HAWKS, 87 & Joe Smith to Cleveland???
Tough game last night. But we pulled out the "W" as Lebron opened up for 26pts, 6rebs, & 11asts. Improving to 46-12. GO CAVS! Game tonight @ 7:30pm/ET.NEWS:
It appears the Cavaliers are going to get some quality big man help for the playoffs.
With just hours to spare before Sunday's midnight deadline, the Oklahoma City Thunder and Joe Smith reached terms on a buyout agreement. He will be put on waivers Monday morning and is expected to clear them 48 hours later. Several league sources said Smith is then expected to sign with the Cavs for the rest of the season.

from Barber:
"I can attest to this song being a straight banger. GLC snaps on this one, and has a lot of heat coming with Love, Life and Loyalty, due out this summer. The official version of "Flight School" is on the way."
