Air Jordan 5 “Wolf Grey” Release Date




"The Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” is one of the all time classic basketball shoes, so isn’t the logical move to borrow that colorway and add it to another, nearly as iconic silhouette? The Air Jordan 5 “Wolf Grey” essentially uses that strategy, draping the shoe in a clean grey nubuck, with enough light grey on the laces, tongue and plastic panel—as well as white accents—to create a nice contrast. Check out a few more looks under the cut, and hit marqueesole.com now to grab a pair if you don’t want to wait until the Air Jordan 5 “Wolf Grey” release date on May 14th."

Big Dig House by SsD Architects







As a prototype building that demonstrates how infrastructural refuse can be salvaged and reused, the structural system for this house is comprised of steel and concrete discarded from Boston’s Big Dig utilizing over 600,000 lbs of salvaged materials from elevated portions of the dismantled I-93 highway. Planning the reassembly of the materials in as if it were a pre-fab system, subtle spatial arrangements are created. These materials however are capable of carrying much higher loads than standard structure, easily allowing the integration of large scale roof gardens. Most importantly, the project demonstrates an untapped potential for the public realm: with strategic front-end planning, much needed community programs including schools, libraries, and housing could be constructed whenever infrastructure is deconstructed, saving valuable resources, embodied energy, and taxpayer dollars."

Try ‘Space Beer’ this season for a change
The search for water in space involves billions and billions of dollars, but discovering beer came easy toSapporo Breweries, which has just begun selling six-packs of the world’s first “Space Beer” brewed with barley descended from seeds that spent time in space. “Space Barley” is extracted from the fourth-generation offspring of barley seeds that spent five months aboard the International Space Station in 2006 as part of research that Sapporo conducted with the Russian Academy of Sciences and OkayamaUniversity. “The aim of the research was to study the adaptability and life cycle of barley in zero-gravity and to explore the challenges of achieving self-sufficient food production in space.” Space Barley beer has a mellow flavor and slightly dark color reminiscent of deep space, according to Sapporo, and is available in a limited number of 250 six-packs, with each pack going for $110. The proceeds will benefit Okayama University, which will use the funds to promote science education for children and foster the development of space science research in Japan and Russia.
