I saw a commercial for this last night and thought it was just utterly absurd. It’s this fake fireplace that emits heat that you can put anywhere in your house. Throughout the whole commercial, they tout the fact that Amish people made this and how they are sticklers for craftsmanship. I thought it was a joke but these things are $587. Check out the excerpt from their website:
Real Amish Craftsmanship
The Amish are known for their kindness and humble pride in a job well done. They separate themselves from mainstream society and are recognized for their plain clothing, avoidance of modern conveniences, and superior craftsmanship. Holmes County, Ohio is home to one of the largest population of Amish in the world, and is where the heart and soul of Roll-n-Glow mantles are hand-crafted from real wood.
Real Amish Craftsmanship goes into each mantle The Amish take extraordinary pride in their innate craftsmanship ability. That’s why each and every Roll-n-Glow mantle is specially crafted to last forever. Because of this, Amish crafted mantles like these cannot be found in the national chain stores. Not only is each mantle hand-made with the utmost importance on quality, every fireplace has a hand-rubbed stain and heat resistant varnish.
Amish CraftsmanshipBecause the Amish are sticklers for quality, they only use the finest materials. Therefore, each mantle contains precision pieces, complete with fluted trim side panels and a cove trim top, all rubbed to bring out the character of the wood. It’s not just a fireplace; it is a fine piece of furniture.

Blurb From Okayplayer:
“So for some more of that grown folk music with a mix of that new age, here is The Apple Juice Kid’s Miles Remixed mixtape presented by Okayplayer and Illroots. This joint is definitely a work of art so let us give credit to the other musicians involved: DJ Merlin, Matt Brandau (bass), Mark Wells (Keys) Daniel Hart (Strings) and guest vocals from Yahzarah and Raheem DeVaughn. You will be hearing much more from The Apple Juice Kid soon as he is producing a majority of Camp Lo’s upcoming album.”

The following post has been inspired by this and this.
Yes, the new XXL covers have created somewhat of a shitstorm amongst us blogger types. Everybody’s going through the pictures, either bigging the kids up or picking them apart every whichaway. Throughout all he say-he say (because, the ladies don’t give a shit about any of this…lol..), I figured I had to pull my own weight in this one. I’m not gonna riff about how I’ve never heard Ace Hood (??) or Asher Roth rhyme over anything (and kinda don’t care to), or how I’m just now really starting to pay attention to Mickey Factz (my bad..). I’m simply going to point out the one whom, in my humble opinion, could’ve had stood alone in all this….
Wale.

This track is so fire; total club banger. Her whole album is pretty good too. She was on tour with Wale and Ronson last summer. She’s come a long way!
