It’s about time pizza boxes developed into something more useful. The Greenbox, manufactured from 100% recyclable materials, breaks apart into four serving plates and a mini storage box for leftovers. Encourage your local pizzeria to start using these.

Late Night with The Roots Mixtape
It’s a shame that Conan isn’t able to continue his Tonight Show, but the good news is that we still have The Roots on Late Night. There were a lot of skeptics critical of Jimmy Fallon’s band selection, but ?uestlove and his crew are playing the right tune with the show’s younger audience, hosting many artists – and non-musicians – to take the stage with them. There aren’t many house bands that have that kind of rapport.
As a result of these late night sessions, the show’s vault is full of brilliant performances which The Roots have compiled into a mixtape (find your copy on the web). My personal favorites: Mighty Mos and THE BEASTIES. So what’cha what’cha what’cha want!
Kaenon Kanvas Polarized
Steve Rosenberg worked as a marketing executive with Oakley for seven years before forming Kaenon in 2001. Since then, Kaenon has grown into an optical powerhouse most recognized for their patented SR-91 polarized lens. “SR-91 is the only polarized lens that offers razor-sharp clarity, impact-protection, superior scratch-resistance and glare-reduction all in one ultra-lightweight lens.” If you think it’s hype, check out their growing roster of sponsored athletes which includes Danica Patrick (Auto Racing), Robert Allenby (PGA Tour) and Julia Mancuso (Olympic Gold Medalist Skier).

Timbuk2 Classic Messenger 2010
After 20-years of R&D on city streets and backcountry roads, the new Classic Messenger is a worthy upgrade. My favorite feature is the “Napoleon” side entry pocket, which is great for stashing some extra cash, camera or iPod. When it’s raining hard the last thing you want to do is open the main flap where your laptop and documents are, which is why a side entry pocket is useful. Retail $70-110 (depending on size… that’s what she said <– sorry, couldn’t resist)
- Durable ballistic nylon exterior, waterproof TPU liner
- Improved Velcro placement along the top of the messenger flap and sides of the front panel makes reckless and uptight opening and closing equally effective. Also helps reduce the much-hated pilling of sweaters caused by unwanted Velcro contact.
- New memory-adjust True Fit cam buckle eliminates daily fit adjustments. Just unclick the cam, put the bag over your shoulder, and lock the cam back in for a perfect fit every time.
