HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY 2011!


CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: As I do each and every Memorial Day, no matter which side of the disparate partisan divide Y.O.U. choose to call home or if Y.O.U. have simply removed yourself from ALL national political debate because Y.O.U. categorically view America as 1 giant conspiratorial cluster fuck H-E-Double-Hockey-Sticks bent on ruthless global imperialism, I appeal to your better spirits to set aside your differences for the day and recognize the selfless sacrifices of our nation's service men and women. By virtue of living in this imperfect union we ALL owe an immeasurable debt of gratitude to those whom have risked life and limb to protect our freedoms - both real AND perceived.

This year, after such a long and blustery Winter, as Summer cuts the line and bogard's Spring's whole swag, it would be easiest to park one's self in front of a smokey grill and/or a sand dressed blanket beneath the 200 year old lighthouse along Long Island's eastern shore in Montauk, NY (NOTE: What? We don't ALL summer in the Hamptons? LOL.), but, as a basic matter of humanity, to do so without remembering our deceased military bretheren and sisteren would represent an act of actionable negligence of the worst kind. It aint all about cookouts, ya dig? Sooooooooooooo, here's a toast to those whom have given the most: Cheers big ears! Same goes big nose! Bottoms up big butt! *Cue Tupac "Dear Momma" Voice* "You are appreciated". LOL! Happy Memorial Day 2011!!!!

Hitting Newsstands Next Week: Amber Rose Covers Vibe Magazine's "Sexy" Issue June/July 2011.


CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Sooooooooooooo, yeah, a few days ago Vibe Magazine released the cover of their upcoming June/July 2011 "Sexy" Issue. Great. Oh, but there was 1 problem. The 1st cover featured a topless Rick Ross tatted to the max and bathing in black diamonds - particularly sporting an unGODly amount of Jesus Pieces that ALL strangely resemble Isaac Hayes as "Black Moses" moonlighting as Black Jesus ... lol. Niggas aint want to see all that. (NOTE: And, for the record, no this is NOT a case of weight discrimination. Unless otherwise posted by my little sister, the currently M.I.A. Aisha, Livestyle has a strict policy against entries dedicated to naked dudes. Nope. Not in my house!)

Thankfully, as it turns out this is a double cover issue and today saw the release of the 2nd marquee featuring everybody's favorite sexxxy ass Newport™ 100's chain-smoking Svedka Robot Girl AKA Ms. Amber Rose. But, hold up though! If the innocent citizenry of America are going to be exposed to the "Bawse"'s boobs when this hits newsstands in a matter of weeks, why come Amber Rose couldn't let her good girls breathe? No arm bra, no nothing? SMH. Whatevs. Her 15 minutes of fame is almost up ... the sex tape soon come ... lol. Holla @ ya boy in BK!

NEW MUSIC: Young Jeezy Ft. Fabolous - Rollin' (Freestyle)(Unofficial Remix)


Streaming Audio/Download Link: Young Jeezy Ft. Fabolous - Rollin' (Freestyle)(Unofficial Remix)


CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Yes, it seems like forever since Fabolous and Young Jeezy 1st linked up in 2005 for Loso's "Do The Damnn Thing" single (NOTE: And, yeah, I'm perfectly O.K. with acting like that "Diamonds" song didn't happen ... lol).

Fast forward to 2011 and en route to T.hug M.otivation 103 "Young Jizzle With The Stamp In The Middle" enlists the talents of Mr. F-A-B-O to hit the turnpikes traficking tunes on this unofficial remix to Gunplay's club anthem "Rollin'" ... and trust me, especially in the middle of a drought, the cocaĂ­na couldn't come much cleaner. Good shit!

"We're Not Candy, Even Though We Look So Fine And Dandy ..."




BONUS:

In the continued and sincere interest of futhering your cultural betterment, it is my view that Livestyle standards and policies must remain sharply consistent with regard to pointing out current (NOTE: Or, in this case, relatively recent when compared to it's antecedent) pop-culture happenings that are totally inspired by often long forgotten acts.

The "act" in question here today is the classic "We're Not Candy" anti-prescription pill popping PSA (NOTE: Which is eerily apropos now in 2011) which aired in Long Island and much of the 5 boroughs of NYC beginning some time in the mid to late 1980's. "This is serious (serious) ... we could make you delirious (delirious)" Yup! And Y.O.U. thought Busta Rhymes had all the answers, huh? LOL. Chill. This is a beautiful part of my childhood right here b! Respect the architects!

The Breguet Marine Tourbillon Ref. 5839 High Jewellery Chronograph Watch = Semper FLY!


"In the watch world diamonds seem to make just about everything better. This Ref. 5839 Marine Tourbillon High Jewellery watch is a diamond encrusted version of the Ref. 5937 from a few years ago. Breguet outfitted the watch case and dial with an impressive amount of diamonds, but still was able to retain that signature Breguet Marine watch look.

The 43mm wide 18k white gold case as about 11.77 carats of stones on it. One of the neatest parts is how Breguet was able to maintain the coined edge of the case using specially cut diamonds. Also not the unique pattern the diamonds create for the bezel. On the dial smaller diamonds are set in the middle of the dial and don't overshadow the hands. The dial itself is silvered 18k gold. Overall Breguet did a great job giving a men's jewelry watch a functional face.

Inside the watch is a Breguet caliber 554.4 manually wound tourbillon movement with the time and a chronograph complication. The watch has 50 hours of power reserve with special features that include a silicium balance spring and escapement wheel."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Although a strong case can be made that bacon, when added to x__________________________ (insert the name of otherwise mundane food of your choice here), can make any meal better the same cannot always be said for diamonds when applied to the high end world of horology. As we have discussed @ length here @ Livestyle, simulated diamonds birthed from chemistry labs have taken the jewelry world by storm, much to the dismay of purists like myself. Additionally, even natural diamonds - especially when plastered recklessly across a watch - can make for a gauche show of perceived riches. Indeed, a balance between fancy and function can be hard to strike. However, leave it to the masters of complications @ the House Of Breguet to score a perfect landing with their Breguet Marine Tourbillon Ref. 5839 High Jewellery Chronograph Watch.

Awash in 186 pieces of baguette-cut diamonds (NOTE: Weighing a total 11.77 carats) this watch is the diamond laced direct descendant of the Marine 5837 introduced in 2007. Ensconced under sapphire crystal this classy chronograph features an 18KT white gold body with a rose gold Tourbillon engine dancing across the dial.

Exceptional by any standard, the hand-wound tourbillon movement Marine 5839 High Jewellery Chronograph Watch represents yet another milestone achievement for the Breguet firm. Good show old chap. Good show!
