Dope Sheit: From Paris With Love

These are what we call back in the day "butta!" Raf Simons’ iconic ‘Astronaut’ sneaker is getting a seasonal makeover for spring / summer 2010. Although, simple and unobtrusive, the updated version of the high top holds true to its predecessors. Around back though is where all the spark is at – the large zippered pocket definitely adds a new dimension to the otherwise ordinary shoe. Check out the British racing green leather high tops at oki-ni.

Random OD: How Avatar's Numero Uno

According to Hollywood trade magazine and buzzword spew-fest Variety, James Cameron's Avatar is now the highest grossing movie of all time.

How'd he do it?

Well, as a Hollywood insider and an Internet expert, I've done a little research to help give you the exclusive scoop on how Avatar made all that moolah.

Check out the chart above from movie review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. Avatar pulled in an impressive $34.9 million in its 6th week! That's almost unheard of!

And all it had to do to get there was beat our Hollywood blockbusters like The Rock vehicle, Tooth Fairy, highly anticipated sequel, Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, and the highly praised, Spy Next Door.

How'd Avatar do it?

That's right… All other movies are terrible.

Grabs: RE Amemiya Genki RX-7 Show Car For Sale

The FD3S RX-7 titled Genki was RE Amemiya’s 2009 main demo car for Tokyo Auto Salon. This car represents the future and is Amemiya-san’s vision of where he wants the RX-7 to go, given the fact that the FD3S is long since over as a production car. This car features proven and trusted RE Amemiya power modifications helping it reliably push 500hp range, an overall balanced tune perfect for circuit and street use, and one of the most unique aero kits perhaps any of us will ever see.

The pictures posted here were shot by Colin Chu of our team and were taken just two weeks ago in Tokyo. The car is MINT and ready to go to some lucky owner’s garage.

Wyclef Jean's Plea for Urgent Earthquake Relief in Haiti: "We Must Act Now"

Wyclef Jean is pleading for people to "act now" to help victims of the devastating 7.0 Haitian earthquake, which officials feared could leave thousands dead.

"Haiti today faced a natural disaster of unprecedented proportion, an earthquake unlike anything the country has ever experienced," the Haitian-American music star wrote on his blog. "I cannot stress enough what a human disaster this is, and idle hands will only make this tragedy worse. The over 2 million people in Port-au-Prince tonight face catastrophe alone. We must act now."

Jean, who established the non-profit organization, Yele Haiti Foundation, in 2004 to provide scholarships to the country's impoverished children, is encouraging people to text "Yele" to 501501, which will automatically donate $5 (to be charged to cell phone bills) to the Yele Haiti Earthquake Fund, or to visit Yele.org and click "donate" to aid in the relief effort.


Those wanting to aid in relief efforts can also text "HAITI" to 90999 to donate $10 to the American Red Cross. Donations to the Red Cross, which has already pledged $200,000 to assist those affected by the earthquake, can be made through the organization's new donation gift catalogue as well. The program allows people to designate their contributions to the charity of their choice with a personalized message.

"The Red Cross is always thinking of new ways to help out and this is a great new initiative that takes [donating] to a new level. A lot of times when you donate money to charities, you don't know where it's going to," Masi Oka, a Red Cross Celebrity Cabinet member, told TVGuide.com last week. "By having this online gift catalogue, you can select this disaster relief group or whatnot. You select exactly where you want to give and it's reassuring to know where your money is going."

Jean said he learned about the earthquake while on the phone with a friend in Haiti. "She says, 'I think an earthquake is coming.' And the phone goes off," Jean told CNN's Anderson Cooper on Tuesday night. After 45 minutes, Jean said he got a text from his friend, who said buildings started collapsing around her.

The musician said he later got a text that said a rapper named Jimmy O, who is part of the Yele foundation and went to Haiti to do a mix tape, had died in the quake — and asked for verification. "I urge everyone who's listening right now that knows how great this kid is in Haiti — I need y'all to verify this information," he said. "It would be a terrible loss for us."

Jean also called on the 4 million members of the Haitian diaspora to step up for their countrymen. "My urgency right now is really a cry of freedom saying we really need a state of emergency, like right now," he said. "We just came from the hurricane and it seems like it's a disaster after disaster, but I think the Haitians that are in America now, we need to step up."
