The List

Hump This

Eat: Mirage
16925 Ventura Blvd, Encino; 818.788.9800

This casual traditional Lebanese restaurant serves up both kebob'd staples and less ubiquitous fare like bbq quail and sambousek -- fried dough stuffed with ground meat, onions, and pine nuts: it will Hez-bowl you over.

Buy: Dolce Gabbana One Day Sale
Saturday at the W Hotel: 930 Hilgard, Westwood

Up to 80% off shirts, jackets, and other menswear; unfortunately, if you forget to RSVP, you'll be stuck paying full price at the Dolce Gabbana "Every Other Day" sale, where prices are 80% on.

Conserve: Lights Out Los Angeles
Oct 20, 8-9pm

This mass event's organizers are asking LA to cut off all non-essential lights for an hour in order to cut the night's energy expenditures by an estimated 15% -- a dubious figure no doubt derived from a battery-less calculator.

Buy: White Stripes Camera

These limited-edition, retro-styled analog cameras are a stylish way to take up a new hobby; unfortunately, like the Stripes, you too will be blues-influenced when you realize nobody knows how to process film anymore.

Watch: Tommy Lasorda Audio Stew (Not Safe w/o Headphones)

This audio clip captures the beloved skipper delivering a dizzying montage of F-Bombs, some pulled from post-loss tirades, others outtakes from Slim-Fast commercials ultimately deemed "not likely to sell diet shakes".
