Prince Charles named world's best dressed man

LONDON (AFP) – Prince Charles has beaten off competition from US President Barack Obama to be named the world's best dressed man by Esquire magazine.
"He is perfectly turned out in a double-breasted suit. Admirably, the prince keeps his wardrobe in appropriate style: we're told he has a room laid out like a tailor's shop," the men's magazine said.
Prince Charles, 60, keeps it simple and has worn suits by Saville Row tailors Gieves and Hawkes, complete with pocket handkerchief and silk tie, for years. Esquire said he was "always incredibly well dressed".
Full story.

Taz Arnold



Because he doesnt limit himself
Because he damn near single handedly put MCM back on the map.


Because he isnt everything u see in GQ.
Because he is a L.A. native.( yes i'm biased)
Because he used to boost from southcoastplaza.
Because he collects channel vintage brooches.
Because he has that sexy light skinned guy thing like prince thats coming back in style!lol

LIL WAYNE...PROM QUEEN VIDEO


BIG SCREEN HOLLYWOOD LIGHTS...




My man Leonard (GLC) and Kanye go in on this track. Have been knocking this for a couple of months now. Love to get my auto-tune in on Kanye's verse, " Baby girl you're dangerous everybody know that you love those lights...baby girl you're dangerous so dangerous but it's only right"

MIDWEST STAND UP...Cam'ron - "Get It In Ohio"

Houshmandzadeh has left the building...






I have been a loyal Cincinnati Bengals fan for many...many years and now our beloved receiving duo is no more. TJ ((Houshmandzadeh)) has gone on to become (pause for dramatic affect) a Seattle Seahawk (insert gas face >> <<). Chad and TJ have been playing side by side since their days at Oregon State. When you see 85 on one end of the field you expect to see 84 at the other end and that has come to an end. After years of playing 2nd fiddle to Chad, the past few seasons we've witnessed TJ blossom into a Pro Bowl caliber receiver and go on to lead the Bengals in receptions. It's a sad...sad day in Bengal land. I'm not mad at TJ for chasing the paper but it will take some adjusting. For the record, I REFUSE to ever purchase a #18 Seahawks jersey in honor of TJ but will proudly rock my now "THROWBACK" #84 Houshmandzadeh in remembrance of the gold old days. (((TEARS)))

"In The Real World: Fed launches new $200B consumer credit program"


I feel like the economy is becoming the little choo choooo train that could......
By JEANNINE AVERSA, AP Economics Writer Jeannine Aversa, Ap Economics Writer –
WASHINGTON – The Federal Reserve on Tuesday rolled out a much-awaited program aimed at boosting the availability of credit to consumers and small businesses.
The Fed will lend up to $200 billion to spur consumer lending — for autos, education, credit cards and other things. The bold program, dubbed the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility, was first announced late last year and originally scheduled to start in February.
Participants — companies and investors that pledge eligible collateral to back the loan — must request the new government loans by March 17. The Fed will provide the three-year loans on March 25.
