The winning photographs encompass the horrors of war, natural disasters, sporting endeavours and the beauty of the natural world.

New Habitat Graphics?
Artist Piotr Woronkowcz has taken his vision to the world of skateboarding with a series of laser-etched wooden skateboard decks. These boards feature elaborate, detailed etchings of natural scenes, architecture or Jesus Christ himself. Piotrs decks are definately one for above the mantlepiece! Im almost sure that I have seen the building graphic decks being sold in an Adidas shop in Stockholm, and they were extremely expensive. So if ye want some nice pieces for the walls and you have a money tree.........

LET US NOT FORGET
I just happened to stumble across a website that has a variety of shockingly amazing photographs from the second world war, that have been uploaded from families of those who have obviously had relatives that were active during this time. Being not long after remembrance day and all, let us not forget what went on and never to let it happen again.

Get some fresh rags.
Ok folks, So my good friend Jessie manages a wee shop in Los Angeles that enables you to design yer own clothing. If ye like fresh brandless hoodies,tees, vests and so on with YOUR own stamp on them, then check out the website at www.apliiq.com . You may have seen me repping the tee's I recently received in the post. I have not one bad word to say about the clothing as the tee's are of good quality and these kind peeps donate a nice wee percentage of their proceeds to charities, such as Breast Cancer Support, support in Haiti & Cambodia.
What Apliiq have to say:
apliiq is your favorite hoody. your favorite tee. your favorite dress. your apliiq is different because it's not blasted with logos or excessive graphics. it's different because you designed it, you carefully picked the fabric and color that represents you. everyone asks you where you got it, everyone wants their own.
apliiq is made in downtown los angeles. we take care to produce the best quality product possible. every fabric and every stitch has been thought out and we only produce a product once it's ordered. that means your apliiq was made just for you.
