Nike Announces "Back To The Future: Part II": Self Lacing Nike Mags

Unless you live in in a cabin in the woods or have no idea what social media is, you are aware that today has been dubbed "Back To The Future Day". To honor such a significant day in the world of pop culture, a little company called NIKE has announced the release of the coveted kicks.

Almost 30 years ago, Nike was asked to collaborate on a movie that would feature scenes set in the futuristic world of 2015. The brand was challenged to imagine sneakers that would suit the inhabitants of the advanced era. The innovation team, which regularly looks into a crystal ball of athlete insight and technology to project the future of sport, took that task further.

The resulting Nike Mag reinvented the conventional lacing system, integrating it into an inimitable design that became an enduring beacon of popular culture. As Nike, Inc. President and Chief Executive Officer Mark Parker put it, “We started creating something for fiction and we turned it into fact, inventing a new technology that will benefit all athletes.”

J.K. Rowling Comes To The Defense Of Serena Williams Via Twitter

It's not enough that J.K. Rowling came from nothing to write seven books in the Harry Potter series which led to many millions of dollars and a string of successful films, she has the ability to take down #Twitter trolls as well.

Hello Father Taco Bell Commercial Is Insanely Funny

No offense to Taco Bell but I've only eaten there about twice in my life. If I'm getting Mexican I'm making it at home or hitting up a high end establishment with free range this and organic that. That won't stop me from laughing my ass off at the following new Taco Bell commercial featuring their new Rolled Chicken Tacos. If every one of their commercials was on this level maybe I'd return for a 3rd go at it.

One hand for tacos. One hand for dip. Zero hands for meeting your girlfriend’s father. Introducing Taco Bell’s new Rolled Chicken Tacos. With your choice of dips, it’s two handfuls of deliciousness.

Dunkin Donuts Is Going Back To Cali

I wake up every morning and every morning on the way to the office I stop at Dunkin Donuts for a coffee. A lot of days I'll also get one at lunch or one on the way home from the office as well. I couldn't even fathom not having one within short driving distance, heck the city I grew up in features 15 of them, but California had zero locations up until recently.

According to the BOSTON GLOBE one gentleman waited 31 hours for his French Vanilla ice coffee and munchkins at the 2nd of what is going to be hundreds of new locations.

138 Water Really Understands Marketing

I've never tried 138 Water, nor do I know if it even is available in the Boston area, but they sure know how to market their product.

Their strategy involves scantily clad models, mostly in bikini's, drinking their water while be splashed with ocean or lake water. Unless the electrolyte water is made from tears of unicorns that olive skinned models is about all they have going for them because their WEBSITE is horrendous.

You're better off trolling the 138 Water INSTAGRAM for all their photoshoots, the latest one involving Venezuelan model Yasmine Colt you can sample below courtesy of WWTDD.

Ariana Grande Goes Cleavage On "Insta" In Reponse To "The Fappening"

Unless you were locked in a pop culture proof dungeon the past week or so you're probably familiar with the story of a hacker who leaked hundreds of private celeb photos in what has been dubbed The Fappening.

The hit list inluded nude photos of Jennifer Lawrence, Kate Upton, Kirsten Dunst among others. Although the three I mentioned can be confirmed one of the others, Ariana Grande, is up for debate.

The 21 year old pop icon tweeted out the following about the incident and repsonded to the "faux photos" with a much more clothed shot of herself on Instagram.

"To every1 going on about my "nudes" & my "m&g prices" neither are real! My lil a** is a lot cuter than that lmao & tour details r comin soon. But forreal tho whoever thought those were actually me...... love u but I'm praying for u'."

I'm not sure if some of that was even English but I think you get the point. She's either in major denial mode because it can't be proven based on lack of her face being visible or she's being honest. You can look at her below.

 

Model Fiorella Castillo Shows Of Her Ball Handling Skills

This has been one of the most exciting World Cup in decades. It's good to see American's joining together to route for one team, rather than the usual Red Sox vs Yankees mentality in our major sports.  Despite the country's recent exit from the field of 16, it was a good showing for American Soccer. We're finally in the conversation with the rest of the world on the pitch, but when the rest of the world has model's that are better than most players while wearing high heels, we may need to re-think the entire situation.

Argentina has been proving it's worth on the field while advancing to the Semi-Finals in World Cup play but all eyes are on Buenos Aires model Fiorella Castillo and her superb footwork.

"I’ve been playing since I was young. I do it more than anything because it’s fun. I see a soccer ball and I turn into a little kid, I love it very much."

"I wanted a way to compete against the guys, I decided to start doing tricks in high heels. As far as I know, I'm the first girl to do this."

There has been some really awe inspiring eye candy in the stands, predominantly the women of Brazil, but can any of them handle balls like Fiorella Castillo?

Soccer you pervs.

Burger King Hearts Fat Americans

When I think of Summer I think of tan & toned women in bikinis, cool & breezy nights, and neverending BBQs. Burger King thinks of new ways to make stupid Americans even fatter so why not the new Extra Long BBQ Cheeseburger?

Nothing screams Summer like two "beef" patties on a giant toasted hoagie with questionable American cheese, greasy onion rings, and a tub of BBQ sauce. You get all this for $3.59 but if the 590 calories isn't enough for you you can get 2 of these artery cloggers for $5.

Colorado residents who just finished their edibles are rejoicing.

I Can't Buy Yuengling Beer In Boston; Now I Can't Buy Their Ice Cream Either

Any time I am cruising through New Jersey on my way to some place else I always make it a point to stop and pick up some Yuengling beer. The amber lager is like no other and in an area where Sam Adams, Bud Light, and Micro-Brews rule, Yuengling is something different. Pronounced Ying-Ling, the oldest opearting brewing company in the United States apparently also made ice cream at one point. What?

The company began selling ice cream during the inception of prohibition and now after an absence of 30 years they are back in your local freezer section in Pennsylvania, Virginia, Maryland, West Virginia, Delaware and New Jersey. Of course not Boston, just like the beer. Thanks for nothing guys.

For those who do have the luxury of experiencing 10 different flavors of Yuengling ice cream including "Black and Tan" and "Chocolate Marshmallow".

Wendys Continues It's Surge Against McDonald's - Hi Ciabatta Bacon Cheeseburger

Let me preface this by admitting that I am not a fast food guy. It's not that I am a food snob, I just rather hit up a local place and get myself a burger and hand cut fries that hit the drive through at a Wendy's or McDonald's. Have I done it? Sure. Is it my preference? Absolutely not.

With that out of the way, if you're going to dip your toes into the grease at a fast food chain, the way to go in my opinion is Wendy's. Better burgers, better fries, better service. Not to mention the chain has already deep fried Burger King and is now going up against fast food juggernaut McDonald's.

McDonald's attempts at new product has had severely limited success with the introduction of Mighty Wings and Fish McBites (What?). Wendy's on the other hand killed it with their Pretzel Bacon Cheeseburger promotion and later the  Pretzel Pub Chicken Sandwich. Now the company is introducing the Ciabatta Bacon Cheeseburger, and should have all the confidence that it wil be another success for the company.

Savor something extraordinary with our new Ciabatta Bacon Cheeseburger. It's a quarter-pound of hot 'n juicy beef topped with roasted, chopped tomatoes, creamy, rosemary garlic aioli, fresh spring mix, natural Asiago cheese and applewood-smoked bacon between a toasted Ciabatta bun. Hurry, it's here for a limited time only, so you gotta ciabatta!
