vans-chukka-decon-fleece-pack

Vans dropped a ‘Cold Weather Pack’ a little under a year ago, combining a trio of suede uppers with shearling fleece on the sockliners.  That tried and true warm feeling combo is back in action here today with two new Vans Chukka Decons using tonal Waffle soles to blend in with their single colored uppers.  Your choice of brown or black is like having a robust house slipper that you can count on for some serious skatability in a pinch, and you’ll find them available now at Off the Wall retailers including The General.

Inside look with recording artist: Bonez

Alright well first off they call me Bonez. I'm 20 years old and have lived in staten island, ny my whole life.

The name Bonez was came up with through my last name which is Riccobono which means good wealth in italian therefor I'd like to describe my artist name Bonez meaning I'm striding for good wealth.

I never thought I would be one to make music but one day it just hit me so I decided to start writing lyrics. I've only been rapping seriously for about a year. Many people don't like to give artists or producers a chance but not me. I will forever remain humble and show love if love is given.

I currently work mainly with my 2 producers ApolloX and Spliff both of FHANTOM$. FHANTOM$ is what we like to call our group. The meaning behind that is we are the fhantoms of the rap game. This being that our music as whole is underground and not recognized but when we come out people know exactly who we are.

Bonez has an upcoming project "FHANTOM LEGION" with production from FHANTOM$ as well as a few producers from the up and coming group TRIBE GVNG.. Set date tba.

Apple's Stock Prices Fall After iPhone 5s Announcement

Apple announced two new iPhones yesterday, but the company's stock has turned south in the day following the event in Cupertino. While the lead-up to Tuesday's smartphone reveals had inspired some apparent confidence in investors, within a couple hours Apple found itself below the $500 per-share mark.On Tuesday, at around 2pm, Apple's shares had dipped about 2 percent. But on Wednesday, Cupertino is continuing to struggle with a low-point of 6 percent loss, or around $465 a share.

Of course, it's important to remember Apple has seen similar lags in share prices after previous announcements.According to The Guardian, the low stock prices could be in response to the iPhone 5c. While the on-carrier arrangement offers a $99 iPhone, the unlocked price is still seen by some analysts as being too pricy.

Breaking Bad Spinoff Series Better Call Saul Confirmed

AMC and Sony Pictures Television confirmed today that they have reached a licensing agreement for a spinoff of Vince Gilligan’s landmark AMC/Sony Pictures Television series Breaking Bad. As conceived, the new series is based on the show’s popular Saul Goodman character with the working title Better Call Saul. Plans call for Saul to be a one-hour prequel that will focus on the evolution of the popular Saul Goodman character before he ever became Walter White’s lawyer.

The possibility of a Saul Goodman spinoff series was revealed last April. With the recent ratings hike that Breaking Bad has been enjoying, it's felt like more and more of a distinct possibility, as the network would want to capitalize on the audience interest in the show, and characters, as quickly as possible.In May, Gilligan, who was developing the series with Peter Gould, the writer who created the Saul Goodman character, said that they hadn't yet decided if it would be a prequel or sequel to the events of Breaking Bad.

"I like to think of Saul as a cockroach in the best possible way,” Gilligan told Vulture, indicating that the crafty lawyer may indeed survive the series' carnage. “This is a guy who’s going to survive while the rest of us have been nuked into annihilation. He’ll be the worst-dressed cockroach in the world.” Now that we know that Better Call Saul will indeed function as a prequel, Saul's fate on Breaking Bad is a little more up in the air."[Saul] kind of knows everybody...everybody in town, all the major players. And he has a hand in the business every which way he can," Gilligan told Yahoo! TV back in April. "So we just have to figure out exactly what kind of story we're telling. Is it a story about his creation of his own character? Because Saul Goodman, as he explains in his first episode, is not his real name. He is a self-created character, much like Heisenberg. Do we tell the story of his origins? We're still trying to hash that out. But there are a lot of fun possibilities."

It appears that we may indeed be getting a glimpse at the man he was, before he became the ambulance chasing, money laundering, lawyer-for-all-occasions, Saul Goodman.

Alan Sepinwall of Hitfix reports that deals still need to be made for Gilligan and Gould, and it is currently unclear if Gilligan will be showrunning the new series. Better Call Saul is also likely to  go straight to series, with no pilot.

We will keep you updated as details emerge!

Meantime... think we'll be seeing Gus and Mike on this show?

Apple Iphone 5c pre-order sept. 13

Apple today introduced iPhone 5c, featuring an all-new design, packed with incredible features in five colors: blue, green, pink, yellow and white. iPhone 5c is built on a foundation of features including Apple’s 4-inch Retina display, the fast performance of the A6 chip, and the 8-megapixel iSight camera — all while delivering great battery life. iPhone 5c comes with more LTE bands than any other smartphone in the world, a new FaceTime HD camera, and iOS 7, the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone.
“iPhone 5c is everything iPhone 5 was and more, in an all-new design packed with great features,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, in a statement. “iPhone 5c is designed with a beautiful polycarbonate enclosure that looks and feels so solid in your hand.”

iPhone 5c features an all-new design crafted from a single, hard-coated polycarbonate body with a steel reinforced frame for a solid, sturdy feel. The steel frame holds the internal components and also doubles as the iPhone 5c’s multiband antenna. The enclosure is one continuous and seamless structure that is finished with a hard coat for a durable and incredibly glossy surface. To complement the all-new iPhone 5c design, Apple created soft, matte, microfiber-lined cases in a very intentional contrast to the glossy, hard coat finish. These sleek silicone cases with unique circular patterns let splashes of color show through, and with five iPhone 5c colors and six cases to choose from, you can mix and match for dozens of fun combinations.

iPhone 5c comes with all the features customers love in iPhone 5, and more. The Apple-designed A6 chip provides incredible performance and power efficiency, all while delivering great battery life, so almost everything you do on iPhone 5c is blazing fast, from launching apps and loading web pages to downloading email attachments. iPhone 5c features a stunning 4-inch Retina display and an 8 megapixel iSight camera, the most popular camera in the world. iPhone 5c also includes a new FaceTime HD camera for even better FaceTime calls and self-portraits, and with iOS 7, you can make audio-only FaceTime calls for the first time.

iPhone 5c makes it even easier to connect to high-speed networks with support for up to 13 LTE¹ wireless bands, more than any other smartphone in the world. With download speeds up to 100 Mbps², you can browse, download and stream content even faster. iPhone 5c includes dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi support for up to 150 Mbps² and Bluetooth 4.0. iPhone 5c delivers an amazing 10 hours of talk time on 3G networks, up to 10 hours of web browsing on Wi-Fi and LTE networks and up to 8 hours on 3G networks, and up to 10 hours of video playback and up to 40 hours of audio playback.³

iPhone 5c comes with iOS 7, the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone, featuring a stunning new user interface, completely redesigned with an elegant color palette, distinct, functional layers and subtle motion that make it feel more alive. iOS 7 is designed to complement the gorgeous exteriors of iPhone 5c, with matching wallpapers and translucency that carry the color through the entire experience. iOS 7 has hundreds of great new features, including Control Center, Notification Center, improved Multitasking, AirDrop, enhanced Photos, Safari, Siri and introduces iTunes Radio, a free Internet radio service based on the music you listen to on iTunes.⁴

Sit down with FREELANCE clothing brand

Hey Fam! Awesome and thank you! Freelance is owned by Husband and Wife team , Duke and Kiki King , the brand came about in 2009 when I realized that the financially secure career I had , could never make me happy.In 2009 I made a life changing decision to leave my well paying job in a quest to get payed loving what you do.As a child if you ever asked what I wanted to do , I would say be an "artist" and I have never lost sight of that dream.I cashed out a large chunk of savings and just went for it ,


Our mission statement is :Freelance is a streetwear Brand for the people, whose focus is on conscious creativity, connecting to the community and consistently delivering relevant and attainable product

Our next goal : Establish our line our custom headwear , build our in house team , expand our retail accounts including some that are being worked on in Japan.

Our biggest achievement I believe is the day we were able to pay some of our personal bills just through our brand , I know it takes time but it has become a reality and now we need to tighten up our business so we can live comfortably off our brand one day , give back and provide jobs

Thank you! Batch selection for this oppurtunity

Canelo Vs Mayweather

This is what seems to be the match up of the year if not century so many people are saying that Canelo Alverez training camp made a huge mistake by agreeing to fight Floyd Mayweather at a catch weight 152. Our opinion here at Batch Selection is that Floyd has his match cut out for himself we see it as Canelo has the most punching power that Floyd has seen.

Mayweather however is the smartest fighter in history and knows what he is in for.

He also has the experience to go the distance with Canelo

If you plan on putting some money on the fight it might not be a bad idea to take the draw

Just saying

Let's Get To Know: Nikki Diazconti

First off whats your name for our readers if they do not already know and do you go by any alias?

-Nikki, that is my alias. Sorry, government name stays confidential. ♥
Location? And Age?...

-From the 805, however I am LA based now. Just turned 24 years young in June.

So how did u get started in modeling?

-I originally got my start with John Robert Powers (JRP) when I was 5, wasn't what I wanted at the time so I stopped. It's always been something I'm passionate about, so it drew me back in about 3 years ago or so. I honestly started by networking my little booty off! "Its all about who you know" that is so true in this industry. I made friends left and right and just started working my way up from the bottom.

What has been your biggest achievement to date?

-Well, I'd like to think I haven't reached it yet. There's still so much farther to go. But if I'd have to pick something, I'd have to say working on all the different videos. Biggest personal achievement is probably "Project Nikki" - my aspiring model project.

What kind of modeling do like to do? Style wise?

-Runway has my heart, but we all know Im a tad vertically challenged lol. I really enjoy it all to be honest. Representing clothing lines, music videos. I love highfashion, glamour, lingerie, bikini. I'm not picky, Im blessed to be doing anything.

Is this a hobby for you or fulltime and where do you you see yourself taking your carreer in the next year or two?

-I wouldn't call it a hobby for the fact that I take it so seriously, and it really does take up most of my time, but unfortunately, no. At this point it's not full time, I do also work and go to school. Since I've started on this path, it's done nothing but go upwards, I can only hope to be as blessed with opportunities in the next year or two ♥
Any brands your following or really feeling there vibe?

-Raw Caviar Self Made (shoprawcaviar.com) I absolutely love their style and what they stand for. They really hit home for me. I adore Guess, would be a dream to work with them one day, and I have an addiction to Foreign Exchange.

Off the record, what do you like to do for fun when your not working the lens?

-Okay, are you ready for a secret? I am a bit of a tom-boy =x

I love sports, basketball mostly. I love to watch the Lakers play, paintballing, quading, jet skiing, hiking ^_^ I love all the adrenaline kinda things. Buuuuut, what woman doesnt like to shop!? You can never have too many shoes / clothes.

What other aspects of the modeling business do you get involved in besides being in front of the lens?

-I've also ring-girl'd, walked in fashion shows, ect. But I'd have to say my biggest aspect of the business aside from shooting is "Project Nikki."
This is an aspiring models project that I created a little over a year ago. What I do is I cast, I have aspiring models (male and female) send me an email with 2 photos, age, contact number, and why they want to start modeling. Each cycle we select up to 4 people to come in and get 'packaged.' This means I give them a quick run down on the industry, what to do, where to start, what not to do, and how to brand yourself. For the length of the project they have access to the studio or location we are shooting at, my team of professionals (all of them went to school for what they do) including photographer, hair and makeup artists, assistants and stylists. They are allowed up to 4 wardrobe changes, and within about 3 weeks to a month I provide them with business cards, a bound portfolio, prints, and 'know-how'. Now I can't stress enough that I am not an agency. This project doesnt guarantee that I will get you any work. This project is set up to teach you how to get your own work, and to give to the tools to do it. However, IF I have any castings that fit your description and you have the right attitude and are easy to work with, by all means, I will submit you.

Where can our readers find you on instagram website twitter?

- You can find me on Instagram under: n_ikki_d I use IG most / Also on Facebook under Nikki Diazconti

We know that your taken, but we know our readers will wanna know anyways whats your type of guy that catches your eyes

- My type of guy huh (blushing).. well he definately has to know how to dress, he needs to carry himself like a man, and please dont talk to me with your crazy slang! LoL! None of this 'whass good ma?' LMAO! I'm a grown woman so I expect a man who can have a conversation ^_^ I like a man who has his life together, has it figured out for the most part. He has to be into working out too, I mean if I'm going to have all this to offer, he should have the same, no? Match my Hustle ♥

Any hobbies we should know about?
