If there wasn’t enough of a reason to celebrate in South Beach, now comes the first ever NBA Championship from the Miami Heat, as Shaq and D Wade clinched the title in game 6 Tuesday night on the road, in Dallas. The up and down two years the team has had since the arrival of Shaq paid off when master motivator Pat Riley took over the reins of the team from Stan Van Gundy, and implemented his 15 Strong program, making sure the team was a lot more than just the two stars. After losing in Game 7 last year to the Pistons with a banged up D Wade, Riles disregarded the naysayers, and broke the team up, moving Eddie and Damon Jones.

His additions were questioned throughout the year as the team did not gel until Game 4 of the first round against the Chicago Bulls. But in the end, the additions of James Posey, ‘Toine, GP, and White Chocolate put the Heat over the top, and delivered the belt down to the beach for the first bling in the 18 year history of the franchise.

While Riles made all the right moves, and the veterans like ‘Zo and Shaq controlled the paint for the playoff fun and finals, it was the rise of Dwyane Wade to stardom, and I mean like MJ stardom, that put Miami over the top. After struggling in Games 1 and 2 of the Finals, Flash went off, scoring over 35 in three straight games, including the game winner in OT in Game 5, which by the way was only the biggest game of his life. D Wade was unstoppable, and his quickness to the basket combined with his tremendous athletic ability and brilliant J leaves anyone sticking him that night to get their Lionel Richie on, cause Flash will bring it “All Night Long.”

And now, as we look forward to the NBA Draft Wednesday in NY, the question arises, can Miami repeat? Yeah, we all saw the Diesel with Stephen A after the game saying the Heat will repeat, and when you think about Wade having an entire summer to improve even more, lots of questions with surround Miami as they enter next season. Does Payton and Mourning have enough in their bodies, playing 29 combined years in the L, to play another season at a championship caliber? Does Riley have the motivation to chase another ring after chasing down his first in his last 16 seasons? Does Shaq care anymore, and will he be in shape by the All Star break? Will the new additions settle in and play the regular season the way they did in the playoffs? Will the 22 bottles of Cristal that the team drank on the plane be a factor?

And while Miami has many questions to answer, the league will be improved, especially the East. The Heat will also now get every team’s best game every night as they will wear the bulls-eye on their backs. Teams like Cleveland, New Jersey, Philly, Toronto, and Milwaukee will be contenders in the East, not to mention all the top teams out west, Spurs, Mavs, Suns, Clips will all be better.

One title won, many questions still unanswered. Just the way Coach Riley likes it.

According to wwtdd.com:
The teaser trailer for next summers 'Transformers' movie broke about an hour ago, and while the official site is getting killed right now, some prodigy was wise enough to load a copy onto YouTube. The quality is ungreat, but it's the best there is for now. All you really need to know is that it's directed by the great Michael Bay, who I have absolute confidence in. No one does summer spectacle better. I can only imagine how great 'X-Men' or 'Superman' would have been in his hands instead of boring ass Bryan Singers. Comparing Bay to Singer is like comparing Roy Jones Jr. in his prime to that kangaroo at the state fair.

Who knew there could be so much money to be made in Khaki pants. Texas Pacific Group apparently saw the future as yesterday, J.Crew went public. Texas Pacific Group made about 5 times their $130 mm investment. This translates into $100 MM for the employees of TPG. As we say over here at PimpWiz, Fat Pockets.

According to the TheDeal.com:
The New York retailer went public Wednesday, June 28, and saw its shares soar more than 25%. The IPO, which had priced $3 over its target Tuesday at $20 per share, provides a windfall for TPG.

TPG will pocket about $180 million of that and reinvest $73.5 million in J. Crew common stock.

TPG initially invested $115 million to $125 million of equity in J. Crew in 1997 and made a follow-on loan of $10 million in 2003 when the company was struggling. In exchange for the debt, TPG will receive additional shares worth about $67 million after the IPO.

Including unrealized gains, TPG is showing more than a 425% gain on the $125 million to $135 million it invested over nine years.

Keira Knightly, the outspoken, charming 21 year old Brittish actress, has always had a place in Hollywood. Born to parents in the acting field themselves, she knew at an early age it was something she was interested in. At age six, her parents got her an agent after she complained that she didn't receive nearly as many phone calls as they did. Now, named the Sexiest Woman in the World by Britain's FHM Magazine, she's taking the world by storm. The 5'8" actress from Teddington, England started her career at age nine and made a name for herself at age 13 when she starred alongside Natalie Portman in The Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace. Since then, she's been going non-stop. Taking inspiration from her heroes, Katharine Hepburn and Vivian Leigh, she's made quite a name for herself in a relatively short amount of time.

Her latest blockbusters include "Bend it like Beckham", "Domino" and "Pirates of the Caribbean" the sequal to which is due out this summer, and being named the spokesmodel for Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle. Even after beating out Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba for the FHM title and being voted "Most Glamorous Actress" by Glamour Magazine, the young actress still maintains a level of humblessness that only proves to make her seemingly even more charming. According to Keira, she's far from being the glamour girl that is portrayed on the hundreds of magazine covers. "I don't know why I'm a scrub, but I am. I've got some great clothes and I'll put them on, do my makeup and hair, stand in front of the mirror and feel like such an idiot. I feel stupid if I've made an effort. It's ridiculous." But hell, we're still impressed. Not only is she super low-maintenance, but she doesn't buy into the typical Hollywood self-image obsession either. Giving her opinion on plastic surgery and the likes, she stated "If a boob job is really the answer to all your problems, I take my hat off to you. And who knows? In five years time when I'm completely past it, I'll be botox and facelifts and nose jobs and hair weaves and watermelons. But I don't fancy solid tits." Nor do we Keira, and we applaud you.

Also claiming that "she isn't the type of girl who works out every day", she claims to "eat bowls of pasta or whatever makes me happy. I haven't been to the gym since January and I'm drinking about half a bottle of wine a night." Cheers! And in the words of Ms. Knightley, "F*** it. You've only got one life- live it."

Eventually hoping to break away from major film productions and move into theatre acting, she wants to start auditioning for stage productions, but it looks like that idea is going to have to be put on hold. She's already working on filming "Silk" and after that wraps, she'll be filming a third sequel to the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie and working on another film, "Atonement". But no rush. She's young, beautiful and from the looks of it, will be around for quite some time.

NBC is teaming up with viral video Web site YouTube to promote its fall season. Under the agreement, announced Tuesday, YouTube will create a dedicated NBC channel on its Web site. In exchange, NBC will hype YouTube through on-air promos.

The deal is noteworthy, considering NBC's legal turmoils with YouTube. A popular Saturday Night Live skit called "Lazy Sunday" was uploaded to YouTube in December 2005 without NBC's consent. The video -- which poked fun at Disney's The Chronicles of Narnia movie -- made YouTube an instant Internet sensation.

Lazy Sunday was viewed more than five million times on YouTube before NBC Universal forced the site to remove it, along with several other copyrighted NBC video clips in February 2006. NBC later placed the skit on its SNL web page as well as in the iTunes Store. Coincidently, YouTube.com won't be able to post the Lazy Sunday video as part of the new deal, NBC spokesman Joe Libonati said Tuesday.

So what kind of content will this new NBC YouTube channel feature? NBC doesn't plan to distribute full-length TV shows through YouTube. Instead, the network said, it will distribute promotional clips from programs such as SNL, The Office and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on the Web site. NBC already sells full-length episodes of Law & Order, The Office and other primetime series through the iTunes Store.

NBC is counting on YouTube to help lure viewers back to TV and boost their ratings. They are currently in 4th place behind Fox, ABC and CBS.

The Harmon Kardon AVR 635 delivers cutting-edge performance at a greatly reduced price. With a list price of $1,299 it's now available on Amazon for around $800.

Versatility at its best! The AVR 645 not only switches two HDMI 1.1 sources, it is able to decode Dolby Digital, DTS and PCM audio streams from the HDMI inputs. Add USB audio, iPod connectivity and XM-Ready capability to our EzSet/EQ system and high-current amplifier, and the AVR 645 performs with ease.

Equally impressive on the video side is format conversion so that all analog video inputs may be viewed via component outputs, and A/V Sync Delay, which reconnects the timing of sound and images. There is no better combination of sound and image anywhere.

Audioholics: "Harman Kardon has delivered in a big way with a small price tag. Someone who is familiar with higher end specs and performance will not be let down by it's features; but more importantly, the person looking for a great centerpiece for his first home theater has found a powerful, un-intimidating, user friendly and killer sounding receiver that can get him started and allow him to grow in the future."

There is a new team on the backpages of the New York sports section, and thanks to Omar Minaya, the New York Mets have a chance to win their first World Series in 22 years. And maybe more importantly, Minaya has put the together a nucleus of players that are full of personality, talent, youthfulness, and has stolen the spotlight from the big bad Yankees.

How did this happen? It was just two years ago the Yankees were sent home in the fall by Josh Beckett and the Marlins. And while the Red Sox/Yankees exchanges are still extremely popular, the two need to matchup with each other to garner the attention the Yankees singled handedly used to get when matching up against any opponent.

The past several years have resulted in the Yankees coming close, but not getting over the top. And in that time, Brian Cashman, Yankee GM, has stockpiled older talent to win now, and has given up the farm system at just about any cost, except for young talents Wang and Robinson Cano. Meanwhile, on the other side of the river, the Mets have followed the Yankees blueprint of the ’90s, bringing talent up from within the organization, and then surrounding those young stars with free agent signings. And while the Yankees won with Jeter, Mariano, Bernie, Posada, and Petitte, they surrounded their young talent with free agents like Tino, Paulie O, Roger Clemens, and eventually Gary Sheffield and the Giambino to ensure that the window of winning rings would last as long as possible.

The Mets are on the road to the same 10 year run the Yankees had. They have three young stars in 3B David Wright and SS Jose Reyes, both homegrown. They gave $121 million to CF Carlos Beltran last year, who looks like he is finally gotten setlled nto playing in the Big Apple. These three young studs are locked up for 7 more years, and if the Minaya to put the correct pieces around them, the Shea Stadium fans will be very happy for a long time. Free agent signings Carlos Delgado, Billy Wagner, and Paul LoDuca have brought a sense of “win now” to the team, and with their top two starting pitchers over the age of 34, Perdo and the ageless Tommy Glavine, the time for the Mets to reach the World Series is this year and next, and then after that its up to Minaya to re-tool to continue to keep the Yankees off the backpages, and the New York Mets as the talk of the town.

Ah yes, the grill. You know that gawdy, jewel encrusted tooth accessory which sits in the mouth of every rapper and spoiled white suburbanite. The grill is truly a cultural phenomena which has taken hold of America's imagination. Suddenly, everyone has one, everyone wants one, and yet nobody really knows why they are attractive or desireable. Seemingly overnight, the grill has become the true mark of a modern gentleman.

Nothing says classy in today's society like a $100,000 retainer that spells out "Da Snowman" in ruby's and emeralds when one smiles. The culture of hip-hop has taken something that used to be the mark of a pirate or a homeless man with a mouth full of fillings and made it into the most glamorous trait a young affluent male can have. Leave it to those trend setting rappers to take what we least expect and make icool. Who remembers when selling crack cocaine was considered "uncool" and "dirty"? Boy, it didn't take Eazy E long to show us how cool it actually turned out to be!

In a similar fashion, hip-hop artists like Paul Wall and Nelly have shown us recently that what a woman truly looks for in a man has nothing to do with love, education, or understanding, but rather focuses on how much "bling" he can fit into his mouth before he suffocates and dies.(Not Safe For Work)- Check out the TOP 15 GRILLS (2005 EDITION)


Rapper Nelly points out in his new hit song "Grillz" (which is actually a scholarly essay on the development of the trend in disguise) what he does with his teeth:

"I got like platinum and white gold, traditional gold
I'm changin grillz errday, like Jay change clothes,
I might be grilled out nicely (oh) In my white tee (oh),
On South beach (oh) in my wife beat."

Nelly paints quite the picture of sophistication. The modern gentleman should wear white gold, traditional gold, change his grill "errday" (but not his clothes), and sport a white t-shirt while chillin' in Miami. Oh how far society has come from the days of "suits" and "manners". If you want to be a young millionaire with women, yachts, and a private jet, let me give you some starting advice: Listen to Nelly and get yourself a grill. Supress the feeling that you look like you have cavities and dont be alarmed when people run away from you screaming in fear, because your dreams are about to come true.

"His net worth was more than $1 billion. His corporate assets totaled more than $40 billion and generated almost $14 billion in annual revenue. His thrift in the name of cash flow is legendary. He is often compared to Warren Buffett because of his knack for turning struggling companies into hugely profitable ones. He is Larry Tisch, Chairman of CBS.

A man as admired as he was once despised. In this behind-the-scenes story, you'll come to know the unaffected family man whose best-known accomplishment is the transformation of CBS back to its glory days as the Tiffany Network. You'll find out what friends, family, colleagues, and detractors have to say about him. You'll see him in action as he out-negotiates rivals and protects himself and his stockholders even when situations turn sour. He is, as Christopher Winans describes him in this book, "unfettered by fear."

A self-made man, Tisch transformed a modest family investment in Florida into the mega-empire Loews Corporation that owns, among other things, Bulova and the Lorillard Tobacco Company. In 1986, he staged a successful and closely watched coup of the CBS board, ousting its legendary chairman William Paley. Though he has often been derided for downgrading the fabled Tiffany network into more humble Kmart trappings, Tisch has been at the helm during CBS's elevation from the ratings cellar to become America's most watched network. He is the man who stole David Letterman from NBC.

The disappointing performance by the United States at this year’s World Cup will have much bigger ramifications than simply the Americans flying home this weekend. After being manhandled and outplayed in the first game, Bruce Arena, the coach of the US team, ripped into his guys, and lit a fire under them to eventually garner a 1-1 tie against powerhouse Italy. All that had to happen was the US beat usual doormat Ghana, and they were in the final 16.

Easier said, or written actually, than done. The team was outplayed, and lost 2-1 to Ghana on a penalty kick that was a very questionable call. And while the referees didn’t give the US team one break in three games, it was clear this US team needs to go back to the drawing board, and get much faster and stronger. If the idea is to show up and be competitive, well then, mission accomplished. But if the idea is to actually win, well then you cant bring a team over like the team we had and actually think they have a shot against the Argentina’s of the world, or Brazil for that matter. And even lesser competition was a tough task for the Americans, whether it was Ghana or the Czechs.

The team having 1 shot on goal in two games, and then only 3 against Ghana speaks to a much larger issue, which is much of the reason our country can’t win the World Cup. Our youth have no interest in this sport. These are kids who are watching commercials of Lebron James dunking all over the place and then driving his Hummer with Jay Z, they are watching Peyton Manning throw touchdowns, and Reggie Bush run for them. And they are watching Barry Bonds hit baseballs out of the universe. They aren’t interested in sitting around a TV for 45 minutes a half, and that’s not including this extra time which is possibly the stupidest sports rule since the 2-3-2 NBA Finals format, just do they can watch a game where they may not see a goal. You can see more goals in the first minute of an NBA game, or even the first period of a hockey game. Our children like action, and they love stars, so while Nike has done their best to throw tons of money behind the US star players, they are only stars in their own worlds, and now that the World Cup is over for the Americans, we will see if Nike will still market Landon Donovan and his boys while they start to get ready for 2010.

Because I promise they will be promoting Lebron James, no matter if it’s the offseason or not.

Now that’s what the children want to see.

According to New York Times:
Warren Buffett, the billionaire investor and executive, said today that he never seriously considered doing anything with his $44 billion fortune except giving it all away.

"I'm not an enthusiast for dynastic wealth, particularly when 6 billion others have much poorer hands than we do in life," Mr. Buffett said at the New York Public Library, where he was appearing with Bill and Melinda Gates, the only Americans richer than he is.

Mr. Buffett said on Sunday that he would give away 85 percent of his fortune — about $37.4 billion worth of stock in Berkshire Hathaway, the company he runs — to five charitable foundations, with the greatest share, about $31 billion, going to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, which is dedicated to improving health and education, especially in poor nations

According to Wikipedia:
Despite his immense wealth, Buffett is famous for his unpretentious and frugal lifestyle. He continues to live in the same house in Omaha he bought in 1958 for $31,500, although he also owns a summer house in Laguna Beach, California. His annual salary from Berkshire Hathaway of $100,000 is nominal by the standards of senior executive remuneration in the United States.

This year's "Lunch with Warren Buffett" charity auction on eBay will end on June 29.[2]

The PimpWiz.com Bottom Line: Now, that's some righteous sh*t, Mr. Buffet! You just won yourself a seat in the PimpWiz Hall of Fame.

Power, Versatility and Great Video
Sony believes that you should be overwhelmed by DVD performance; not DVD equipment. They deliver DVD excitement in a slim, sleek, stylish package, the perfect way to bring the full performance of DVD, including studio-quality digital pictures and six-speaker surround sound, into your home. The DAV-FX100W DVD Dream System consists of slot-loading 5-disc DVD changer/receiver, front and back floor standing speakers, a center channel speaker and a powered subwoofer. You get a total of 1000 watts of system power. Not only can this system play DVDs and CDs, including your CD-R/RW discs, it can also play the latest Super Audio Compact Discs, for the ultimate in stereo and multi-channel sound quality. And, when you want to hook up to satellite television, there's a digital input waiting for you so you can enjoy the benefits of digital audio with your digital satellite programming.

Home Theater... With Wireless
What is the ultimate reference for movie theater sound? It's the Hollywood dubbing stage, where directors go to evaluate and approve their sound tracks. Now, that sound has been brought home, courtesy of Sony's Digital Cinema Sound system. These digitally recreated acoustic environments are based on the actual measurements Sony made at acclaimed Hollywood dubbing stages. By reproducing the precise reverberation qualities of these venues, the DAV-FX100W DVD Dream System makes your movies sound exactly the way they were meant to be heard. The wireless rear speakers with DAIT technology allow you to place the audio where it sounds best: you are in control!

Music To Your Ears
Super Audio Compact Disc is the realization of an audiophile's dream: all the precision of digital reproduction, combined with the warmth and ambiance of analog sound. The secret is Direct Stream Digital encoding. Its one-bit 2.8224 MHz (64fs) sampling is the highest quality sound source available today. DSD one-bit encoding strips away entire classes of distortion that have always characterized the conventional PCM digital sound format used for traditional CDs. It's nothing less than a quantum leap forward in music resolution. The DAV-FX100W reproduces not only stereo SACDs, but also multi-channel SACDs. You can hear the full glory of full-resolution SACD sound in as many as 5.1 channels.

Digital Decoding
Sony has included Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, dts, dts ES and Dolby Pro Logic II decoding in this system so you have surround sound covered. Dolby Digital and DTS decoding will surround you with 5.1 separate channels of digital sound for sound quality that analog systems can't match. You are enveloped with completely separate channels for Left, Center, Right, Left Surround, Right Surround and the special ".1" channel just for bass. Suddenly, movies have the same excitement and impact as in the theater. Bass is stronger and closer to the director's original intent. Dolby Digital EX adds an extra channel (a matrixed surround back channel) to the 5.1 discrete channels of Dolby Digital. dts ES improves 360-degree localization and spatial expression. The DAV-FX100W also incorporates Dolby Pro Logic II decoding. Dolby Pro Logic II expands upon 2 to 4 channel sound formats, transforming them into pseudo six channel surround sound. So, you'll be ready to hear the best from hundreds of VHS Hi-Fi movie releases, plus a wide range of digital satellite programs, TV sports, drama and movie broadcasts. Even your stereo music will take on a whole new sound thanks to Dolby Pro Logic II processing!

A Bit More Detail
The DAV-FX100W DVD Dream System gives you great movie and music playback with every disc. This high-tech home theater system features sophisticated audio and video capabilities that will enhance your home entertainment: fantastic near-High-Definition DVD images, plus wireless rear speaker technology for powerful surround sound and easy setup. The DAV-FX100W can upconvert standard DVD signals, upgrading them to dynamic near-HD resolution. It sends these pure, all-digital signals to any TV with a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) input. HDMI is a high-quality connection known for delivering superior picture quality. You'll notice the added detail and clarity in all your DVDs. Plus, you enjoy rich, enveloping surround sound without running speaker cable all the way to the back of your room. Using a small transmitter, the DAV-FX100W sends uncompressed digital audio signals through the air to a small rear amplifier. You simply connect this amplifier to the right and left rear speakers to get beautiful, dynamic sound with easier hookup and less clutter. This system is a movie lovers Dream System... literally.

This is nothing to say except God bless Brazil and Prince Wenzeslaus better be thanking his lucky stars that he almost gets to sleep with her ;-()

Even in this "whack" outfit she still looks flawless.

Adriana Lima was born in 1982, in Salvador, Brazil. The blue/gray-eyed beauty can attribute her exotic good looks to her French, Portuguese, Native-American, and Caribbean heritage.

Her climb from obscurity to glam girl occurred after placing second in the Ford Supermodel of the World Contest (after having won the 1996 Ford Supermodel of Brazil Contest). Adriana signed with Elite Model Management at the age of 16, and moved to one of the fashion centers of the world, New York.

Once there, her modeling portfolio only began to expand exponentially, after appearing in Vogue (Italy) in 1997, as well as Vogue (UK), I-D (UK), Marie Claire (Brazil), and Vogue (Italy) in 1998.

Get ready to start upgrading your DVD collection. The next generation of DVD players featuring Blu-Ray are hitting the market. One model in particular that's getting a lot of attention is the Samsung BD-1000. According to Samsung, "Today's high-definition televisions (HDTV) are capable of displaying a far greater amount of movie realism than a DVD can deliver. That's why Blu-ray DiscTM technology was developed."

Obviously Samsung thinks pretty highly of their own product, but what are other people saying about the BD-1000?

Audioholics: "Samsung's unique technology - one pickup with two lenses - allows it to also play standard DVDs and CDs in addition to Blu-ray discs while allowing for more cost-effective production."

Gizmodo: "Samsung has produced a very interesting product. The BD-P1000 is a large, healthy device with a 20 second BRD load-time and a crisp, clean picture. On a full 1080p set, the picture is as crisp as fresh-baked pizza and the audio is surround-sound-alicious."

Once you get a new Blu-Ray DVD player, the next step is to invest in some Blu-Ray DVDs. Here's a short list of some the first Blu-Ray DVDs to be released:

• Black Hawk Down
• The Terminator
• SWAT
• Lord of War

This Samsung Blu-Ray DVD player is available on Amazon.

Aishwarya Rai was born on November 1, 1973 in Mangalore, South India. Aishwarya is a international beauty contest winner, a professional model, and a leading actress in Bollywood and Hollywood films.

She's been called the next Penelope Cruz, but it's much bigger than that. She's the world's sweetheart with her wholesome values, down to earth persona and obvious talent. The fact that she's unbelievably drop dead gorgeous doesn't hurt either. With her perfect figure and stunning looks, she's made about every FHM list known to mankind. Lucky for her though, there's more to her than just the high cheekbones and perky breasts. In a world where Angelina Jolie is viewed as the "ultimate woman" with her good looks and humanitarian spirit, Aishwarya Rai makes Jolie look like Nick Nolte on a crack binge in comparison.

After winning the title "Miss World" in 1994, "Ash" as her friends call her, rocketed to stardom in her native India, modeling and acting in the ever- growing Bollywood film industry where she was an instant hit for obvious reasons. She made her US debut in the Bollywood take on the Jane Austen novel "Pride and Prejudice" aptly named "Bride and Prejudice". And even though it didn't prove to be a US box office smash, it certainly made more than a few people take notice. It even prompted comments from such celebrities as Julia Roberts and David Letterman, who declared her "the biggest movie star in the world". Dave just might be on to something. Rai is becoming an international household name picking up movie deals, commercials, and endorsements from such brands as L'Oreal, DeBeers and Coca-Cola, placing her in the top elite of the acting crop.

Thinking she must have some negative "diva" traits, Pimpwiz went on an internet hunt to find some sign of her vanity, but to no avail, we came up short. So, she is either a saint or has a kick ass PR team - which is highly possible considering she is one of India's highest paid actresses. But the fact that she's very "real" seems to be a general consensus among the masses. We have yet to dig up any stories of her requesting Evian water to bathe in or smashing a cell phone against her assistant's head. However, aside from the fact that she is beautiful, intelligent, religiously devout and rich, she's really just your average girl next door. Well, your average model- esque Indian goddess next door - which is a good alternative.
