Somebody Had To Ruin It



Earlier this week an unfinished song from Ye’s album leaked on the internet. As usual, most sites grabbed it and ran with it. Once Kanye got wind of the leak he asked for it to be taken down.  All seemed to blow over, until last night… when another unfinished track leaked. Kanye wasn’t so generous this time. And as you can see by the Twitter update above, he decided to cancel G.O.O.D. Friday (hopefully for this week only).

"One Perfect Cup" -Designer: Sven MILCENT & Utopik Design Lab



Sven MILCENT & the Utopik Design Lab have done it! They’ve taken our entire collected evolution of cup-making and holding of drink history and combined it into one cup. One cup to hold them all. This is “One Glass for Every Drink” and it’s made to work for everyone. It of course tends to the four main glass-specific types of drink: water, cognac, wine, and champagne. It uses the same head and a different base for each of these. Sounds lovely doesn’t it? Let’s have a sip or two and talk about it.

This isn’t the first interchangeable base cup we’ve had here on Yanko, and it wont be the last. It’s a fantastic idea and deserving of a slew of attempts at it in order to make it perfect. Here’s one with some really fabulous ideas, and rather elegant ones if I do say so myself.
And while we’re at it, I’ve got to say that my favorite drink glass in the world must be the snifter – looked after here closely by that cognac glass on it’s side. Very sassy. Very nice. Very on it’s side where it definitely aught to be, havin a great time.



Denim Primer: Improving Your Jeanius


If you’re not naked and you’re not at work, you’re probably in jeans. When faced with pants mandatory situations, jeans are the go to solution for guys everywhere. Guys and denim go together like pop stars and breast implants or bacon and everything. Since you will undoubtedly be living in jeans, it only makes sense to get a quality pair. Spending more than $200 on anything that you can’t ride – especially clothes – is a lot easier in theory than it is in practice. The problem is a lack of education. With so many different variables – and a lack of resources – how can any man be expected to make an informed decision? We’re not going to call this the denim bible because if we did no one would read it. Consider it more a collection of helpful hints or a map to get you from boxers to a night out on the town.

Target X Sanrio "50 Years Of Sanrio"


Sanrio continues to celebrate its 50th Anniversary and has partnered up with Target to take the birthday festivities on a cross-country tour. The mobile unit will be making stops at major cities across the United States such as New York, Miami, Atlanta, Houston, Los Angeles and San Francisco dishing out small gifts from Sanrio such as tote bags, wallets, lunch boxes and purses featuring Hello Kitty and her little friends like My Melody.  Check out a preview of the goodies and stay tuned for more info

BlackBerry Playbook



The PlayBook will have a 7-inch screen, making it half the size of the iPad, and weigh about to the iPad's . And unlike the iPad, it will have two cameras, front and back. RIM didn't say what it would cost, but said it would be in the same range as the iPad, which starts at $499.
The PlayBook will be able to act as a second, larger screen for a BlackBerry phone, through a secure short-range wireless link. When the connection is severed - perhaps because the user walks away with the phone - no sensitive data like company e-mails are left on the tablet. Outside of Wi-Fi range, it will be able to pick up cellular service to access the Web by linking to a BlackBerry.

Nike Athletics Far East- Lava Dunk


The Nike Lava Dunk is part of the Nike Sportswear Athletics Far East, sort of a ‘yin’ to the Athletics West ‘yang’. Taking inspiration from the Athletics West training facility, the Nike Sportswear AFE collection originated in Nike Sportswear Design Studio in Japan and features a collection of classically inspired footwear, with the camouflage print being the signature staple of the Nike AFE capsule. We can expect two colorways of the Nike AFE Lava Dunk – black as well as a khaki beige – on October 1st, so continue reading for detailed gallery as well as full specs of this hybrid shoe and let us know what you’d expect from the Nike AFE (Athletics Far East) Collection.

Nike SB Dunk High -Denim


During Nike SB’s decade of dominance, fashions have ranged from outrageous to super-simple, but one thing you can count on is denim looks great on Dunks.  The latest Nike SB Dunk High done in denim features a single colored upper for a look that’s amongst the cleanest of the entire year.  It’s a rich blue denim like you might find on Carhartt work pants, and finds its white flecks picked up on the ubiquitous white Dunk midsole.  They’re finished off with a black tongue, laces and outsole, and are scheduled to drop later in the year.  Click the jump below for more images   via Warped



They Finally Got It Right!!!!!!!



It looks like the heat-wave is going to be a lot hotter than we anticipated. Another rumored release making some noise is the Air Jordan XI ‘Concord’ and Air Jordan XI ‘Columbia’, with a possibility of both releasing together as a package. Both the Concords and Columbias have not seen the light of day since 2000 and 2001 respectively, although we did get a Concord-like release with the Air Jordan XI DMP of 2006 and the Air Jordan XI 25th Anniversary from earlier this year.







Play On Playa! Blowhan Released From Jail


LOS ANGELES – Lindsay Lohan was freed from a suburban Los Angeles jail late Friday night, well short of the nearly monthlong stay a judge had intended for the actress following a failed drug test.
Lohan was released at about 11:40 p.m. after posting $300,000 bail, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department spokesman Steve Whitmore said early Saturday.
Celebrity website TMZ.com reported her release just before midnight.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden Fox had ordered Lohan held without bail during a brief hearing Friday morning, But his ruling later was overturned after the "Mean Girls" star's attorney, Shawn Chapman Holley, filed a late-afternoon appeal seeking bail.
Judge Patricia Schnegg, who is an assistant supervising judge of LA's criminal courts, issued a ruling shortly before 6 p.m., saying that since the starlet had been convicted of misdemeanors, she was entitled to bail.
The actress is not entirely free. She will be required to wear an ankle alcohol monitor and stay away from establishments that primarily sell alcohol.
She is also due back in court on Oct. 22, when the judge who curtly sent her to jail will decide what her punishment will be for failing a drug test roughly two weeks after he released her early from rehab.
At that hearing, Fox will formally determine whether Lohan, 24, violated her probation by failing a court-mandated drug test. The positive result came after the judge released Lohan early from inpatient rehab at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center.
Fox did not say why he had ordered no bail for the actress Friday morning, or state what drug appeared in her system during the recent test.
Friday marked the third time Lohan has been sent to jail in a three-year-old drug and drunken driving case. She spent 84 minutes at the jail in 2007 and 14 days of a three-month sentence earlier this summer.

10 Major Health Benefits Of Marijuana


The days of Reefer Madness are pretty far gone, but the American public is still vastly uninformed about marijuana, particularly concerning its myriad of amazing health benefits. Here are 10 (out of countless) health benefits that marijuana possesses. With that said, it’s simply baffling that medical marijuana is not legal in most of the country, and still there retains such a negative reputation. So, if you have one of these conditions, now might be a good time to call up your cousin’s dealer.

Troy Polamalu's Hair Insured For $1million



So it would appear that Lloyd's of London has taken out a $1 million policy on Troy Polamalu's hair (pictured above in all its Super Bowl-winning glory). This might seem vapid, like every insured body part other than Tina Turner's legs, but we'd like to point out one thing: America's favorite Pittsburgh Steeler did not insure his own hair; it was Head & Shoulders, the shampoo for which he is currently the spokesman (and which some of us, believe it or not, still use around here). The Pro Bowl safety's signature locks have been growing for the better part of a decade in deference to his Samoan heritage — and that's really all you have to do to get this look: grow. They must be a tempting retaliatory target for smothered running backs and wide-outs the league over; no wonder the dandruff-shampoo giant has taken steps to protect its shiny (and bouncy) investment. And no wonder we've been seeing more free-flowing copycats like Troy around the globe. Take note.

1st Look: Motorola DEFY


If you saw the Defy and read its specifications, you’d think it’s just another Android smartphone: it sports a 3.7” touchscreen display with a 480 x 854 pixel resolution, an 800 MHz CPU, a 5-megapixel camera with a flash, aGPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, and a microUSB jack.
However, the Defy is resistant to dust, scratches and impact, as well as water, making it quite a different beast from most other smartphones of its ilk. Most importantly, the extra protection doesn’t come at the expense of size and weight: the phone’s dimensions are 59 x 107 x 13.4 mm and it weighs 118 grams. It compares favorably to iPhone 4’s weight of 137 grams, although it is 4.1 mm thicker than Apple’s smartphone.
