If you are like me, when traveling, eating is one of the main things. It gives you a viewpoint on the locals and their culture. New York is one of the top metropolitan cities in the world. Because it is hard to do everything with the short amount of time most of us have for vacations, here is a link to  The 38 Essential New York Restaurants, Jan. ‘10

“The only serious rule of engagement here is that a restaurant must be open at least six months to qualify for inclusion on the list, though strong consideration is given to neighborhood favorites over fancier destination” spots.” ny.eater.com

Sarah Jessica Parker for Halston

Posted in news on January 28th, 2010 by Adam – Be the first to comment

It’s a great move that Halston has asked Sarah Jessica Parker to be part of its brand. Taking on the role of Halston president, Sarah Jessica Parker of “Sex and the City” fame, will be over-seeing a newly announced Halston Heritage collection.

Mrs. Parker had a successful clothing line with Steve & Barry’s, but the company went under recently and left the Sex and the City starlet’s clothes line without a home.

Sarah Jessica Parker is known for he clothes and fashion sense from the hit TV show. Most fashion insiders are happy and waiting with anticipation…

“I think this is a brand new kind of business model, and it illustrates how serious I am about this position. I think it’s wonderful to feel invested in something. I tend not to just endorse something. I like feeling the stakes,” SJP said in a statement Wednesday. “I know I come to the company in a rather unorthodox way but I’m not the first to be president of a company without the traditional background.”

Ride the Subway in Your Undie

Posted in fashion, street style on January 14th, 2010 by Adam – Be the first to comment

Improv In Toronto did it again. 350 people take part in The 3rd Annual No Pants Subway Ride, caught many subway rider of guard, my self included seeing a few people walking around with what look like hot pant,  almost pull out my fashion police badge and give them ticket.

But alas. As I turn the conner there are hundred of them with no pant on the platfrom and into the subay.

Here are what some what other people are saying or random conversation over heard.

“Not to be intrusive, but do you two wanna be the cute couple holding hands with your pants off?”

“For too long have we been oppressed by pants! Finally, our day of reckoning has arrived! Our day…of REVOLUTION!”

“Come on, don’t make us feel weird.” (Said to a random guy who walked into the burrito place.)

The music labels are sued for pirating music

Posted in music, news on January 11th, 2010 by Adam – Be the first to comment

The record labels companies are sued for pirating music from their own artist to the tune of $6billion.

They have been going after  the citizen of the world (mainly their own artist) complaining loudly, coming up with crazy figures that they claim they have lost.

These same music labels (Warner Music, Sony BMG Music, EMI Music and Universal Music) are committing far more wost crime, pirating music for profit.

All the top ten complication of the year such as DVD’s nd CD”S, were profitable for the companies and not to it’s rightful artists.

As a fan of music and musicians, i almost always bought a CD in order to support  an artist or to support the art in general. I feel misled and let down to know that the companies were getting all the profits without sharing a cent with the artists.

Well it turns out that these music labels never ask for these artists permission to or ever pay the artists for any of the sale/royalty of their music from these CDs sale.

the record company crying wolf and exacerbated the figure of what they are losing are now coming back to haunt them to the tune of $6 billion, more than what the whole  music industries worth these day!

“The labels have made a habit of using songs from a wide variety of artists for compilation CDs without securing the rights. They simply use the recording and make note of it on “pending list” so they can deal with it later. This has been going on since the 1980s and since then the list of unpaid tracks (or copyright infringements) has grown to 300,000.

Warner Music, Sony BMG Music, EMI Music and Universal Music were sued for illegal use of thousands of tracks and at present the case is still underway.” via torrentfreak.com
