<strong>Details</strong>: Just in time for the holidays, finally! It&#8217;s been years (I&#8217;m being dramatic) for this video to be released, and it&#8217;s here. Now as &#8220;<em><span style="color: #d62863;"><strong>Party</strong></span></em>&#8221; seems to be a fan favorite, I&#8217;m sure you all can relate to the videos treatment; house party. Oh stop being bougee, I think trailer parks are the new gated homes. Everyone at the <em>LateBoots</em> office scrambled in front of their desk to enjoy it. And we did. I love the homemaker Houston, Texas baby Bey. The video features <em>J.Cole, Solange, Kelly Rowland, Shaun Ross, Coco &amp; Breezy</em> and alot of the <em>NYC party culture</em>&#8211;most of them I know, (you&#8217;ve seen them on here). Have fun with it! </p>
<p>Oh, a <em>Kanye West</em> cameo would have been like Thanksgiving in October.<br />

<em><strong>Shams&#8217; Treatments</strong>: <a href="http://www.moroccanoil.com/">MOROCCANOIL&#8217;s</a> moisture repair shampoo &amp; intense hydrating mask conditioner</em></p>
<p><em>The luxury brand, <strong>Moroccanoil® </strong>, is the originator and leading manufacturer of professional Argan Oil hair products and the fastest growing independent company in the professional salon industry. A powerful antioxidant and UV protector, Moroccanoil’s proprietary Argan oil blend is rich in vitamins and natural elements that fortify the hair, including Vitamin F (Omega 6), Vitamin A to improve elasticity, Vitamin E to protect against free-radicals, and Phenols to shield against environmental stressors. </em></p>
<p>If that doesn&#8217;t turn you on, here&#8217;s all I know: Chambray shorts rolled up to the bottom of my seersucker pockets; the shoes are from Italy and my <em>champu</em> is Moroccan. Truthfully, I want this feeling to last a lifetime. A golden referral from my favorite hairstylist over at Salon Capelli. Dry hair be gone! <em>I got that run your fingers through smooth with my skin tan and my hair long.</em> Results come with a guarantee that&#8217;s better than the local dude. <a href="http://www.sallybeauty.com/">Sally&#8217;s</a> took me under and Moroccanoil®<strong> </strong>brought me back. Now that my hair is done, why don&#8217;t we change our clothes and play badminton?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gather &#8217;round children, zip it, listen! I never knew how misguided our youth was&#8211;so they called me in like Mary Poppins; I&#8217;m in the Atlanta Public School System encouraging kids in a Gazzarrini suit. My lesson: It doesn&#8217;t matter how talented you are; if your business is not right you will fail&#8230;<span id="more-14615"></span></p>
<p><strong>History</strong>: Booker. T Washington Early College is one of the newest early college schools in the Atlanta Public School System. The premise behind the early college concept is to afford students the opportunity to obtain college credit while going to high school. The school serves as a cornerstone of Atlanta Public School&#8217;s comprehensive reform program-Project GRAD (Graduation Really Achieves Dreams).</p>
<p><strong>GET EXCITED. </strong> Have you ever studied with the lights on? We&#8217;re designing lives and empowering black kids with a suit and tie on. For the past 6 weeks myself and company taught our Power Lecture Series; empowering the youth concentrating on appropriate dress, the importance of networking and interviewing skills over at <a href="http://www.btwbulldogs.com/">Booker T.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Life in pictures; I think we all live a good life. And my new muse is influence. Guess who helps out at the Metro Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless? &#8230;Oh stop applauding but I thank you all who seek change as I do&#8230;<span id="more-13107"></span></p>
<p><strong>History</strong>: Founded in 1981, the Metro Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless has consistently served as the central coordinating agency for services to individuals who are homeless. For the past 26 years they have served several hundred thousand individuals. The programs help link people to services that include but are not limited to: shelter, housing outreach, transportation, employment and health care. The Task Force pursues progressive, enduring social change while respecting the urgent needs of homeless persons needing immediate and emergency assistance toward the goal of “no person left outside.”</p>
<p>Now, I know I use to act a fool, but all I ask is for you to expose yourself to things outside of your bubble&#8211;something just popped. I said to myself, <em>look at you with that pretty face, perfect hair and those wonderfully placed clothes</em>. <em>Your only problem is tomorrows outfit?</em> When you&#8217;re blessed it&#8217;s your duty to give back. So a few members of <strong>CASHMERE CLUB 1867</strong>, myself and Lo headed to the <a href="http://www.homelesstaskforce.org/">Atlanta Task Force for the Homeless </a>to set up the decor for the shelters atmosphere. Now the beauty of all this is that the art works you&#8217;re about to see were all painted by the men in the shelter. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My emotions are starting to run deep; honored to be somebody that they mention&#8211;It&#8217;s been a pleasure. I&#8217;m trying to tour the world speaking to students about what they can do. We&#8217;re only getting older&#8211;and I want them to remember me in the past&#8230;<span id="more-12603"></span></p>
<p><strong>The darkest hour are the 60 minutes that make the change</strong>. And I&#8217;d like to say that inspiring kids has been a pleasure. These young black students have yet to be exposed to what most of us have, they call them the have-nots, so it&#8217;s pretty simple: there was a call for action, and I decided to answered it. I now spend my nights coming up with lesson plans for the Banking, Finance, &#038; Investment students, we teach over 180 kids Monday-Friday. Ofcourse the students once looked at me as &#8220;the Prince guy with the funny clothes&#8221;&#8230;.and to my surprise they really dig my slippers and man bag now.</p>
<p><strong>History</strong>: Booker T. Washington High School Educational Complex (Atlanta), named for the famous educator, opened in September 1924 under the auspices of the Atlanta Board of Education, with the late Charles Lincoln Harper as principal. As the first public high school for African-Americans in the state of Georgia and the Atlanta Public Schools. Booker T. Washington High School-Early College is one of the newest early college small schools in the Atlanta Public School System. The premise behind the early college concept is to afford students the opportunity to obtain college credits while going to high school. Students who graduate from BTWHS-EC will undoubtedly be prepared to pursue post secondary education at some of the top universities/colleges in the U.S.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>What permission slip did I always get signed in advance? Field Day! Anything that forces me to take off my cool and enjoy some good recreation while previewing the new Earthkeepers Collection&#8211;I&#8217;m down. Thank to KP, I didn&#8217;t miss Timberland&#8217;s &#8220;Nature Needs Heroes&#8221; event on Governor&#8217;s Island&#8230;<span id="more-12492"></span></p>
<p>A planned abduction with no force, all to spoil us with wine at 10am, organic food <strong>*smiles*</strong>, and a tour guides around the island via bike. It was the perfect way to start of a Friday!</p>
<p><strong>The New Earthkeepers Collection</strong>&#8211;<em>&#8220;Why throw them out when they can have a stylish afterlife.&#8221;</em></p>
<p><em>What is an <strong>Earthkeeper</strong>?  </p>
<p><strong>Earthkeepers</strong> take their eco-consciousness a little more to heart than most. Sure, we turn out the lights, <strong>recycle</strong> our cans and ride our bikes. But really, isnt that stuff the least we can do? To keep the Earth healthy and sustainable, Earthkeepers do more. Earthkeepers are the ones coming up with the latest and greatest ways to reduce their carbon footprints. Creative things that may sound weird to some, but hey, they work. And the cool part is that they want to share these ideas with as many like-minded people as possible. Thats where being part of the Earthkeeper community really comes in handy.

<p><strong>History</strong>: <em>&#8220;In 1995, the Coast Guard closed its facilities on Governors Island and, as of September 1996, all residential personnel were relocated. President Clinton designated 22 acres of the island, including the two great forts, as the Governors Island National Monument in January 2001, and on April 1, 2002, President George W. Bush, Governor Pataki, and Mayor Bloomberg announced that the United States would sell Governors Island to the people of New York for a nominal cost, and that the island would be used for public benefit. At the time of the transfer, deed restrictions were created that prohibit permanent housing and casinos on the island. On January 31, 2003, 150 acres of Governors Island were transferred to the people of New York. The remaining 22 acres were declared the Governors Island National Monument, which is managed by the National Park Service.&#8221;</em> <a href="http://www.govisland.com/html/history/history.shtml">source</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Look at this picture, hmm, the guy with the X mark, that&#8217;s Coltrane. Now I don&#8217;t know who you run to for inspiriation, and look at the year I wasn&#8217;t even born yet, and by no means am I telling you what to do. But, you need to be on Coltrane Curtis&#8230;<span id="more-12457"></span></p>
<p>Now I do want to mention that I am very selfish when it comes to Coltrane and making him accessible to all. But, you know, I can&#8217;t hoard all the knowledge. Coltrane has a list of public speaking engagements he&#8217;ll be doing starting next week. I mean, who would have thought he would shit on all of his classmates in that picture!! Lol, ok so I had to bring a lil old Phifer out. It&#8217;s all about moderation.</p>
