Design Collective



Good friends Lesley and Sam have taken the bull by the horns and are trying to get the rag-tag group of local industrial designers together the network and collaborate, they are doing this under the banner of the Design Collaborative of South Australia. We have had sporadic get-togethers for many years and this will build upon the connections already in place and take it to the next level so we can all help each other to help ourselves. I'm really looking forward to helping out and seeing this grow.

We had the first night under this guise a few weeks ago, and while the turn out was quite small, all those in attendance were passionate and enthusiastic about the common goals, especially after some great wine! Bring on the 28th of September for the next catch up.

Well the title of the image is Jesus Hates Zombies, but there are enough people promoting that dead carpenter already.

American Jesus Punk in Drublic

NOFX and Bad Religion are coming out again next month and it's gearing up to be a cracking gig as usual. The description from the ticketing agent sums it up better then I could hope to:

"Remember Christmas time when you were a kid. The extended family in your backyard, BBQs and drunken adults? You loved seeing your slightly strange uncle. The one with the piercing and the tattoo of the stoned tuna. He was different to your Dad, mysterious, exciting, a little dangerous. Well, imagine if there wasn just one uncle, but two of them, and instead of Christmas it was the Thebby. And instead of this entire laboured metaphor, it was NOFX & BAD RELIGION! The two slightly weird uncles of punk, or punkles, coming to our backyard, together! NOFX and Bad Religion. Sharing a stage. We e talking political and socially aware diatribes wrapped up in tight-as-@*#@ punk rock. They e older than you, and they rock a lot harder than you ever will. Kind of like your drunk uncle"

Wooden Structure and Suspension


I know nothing about this bike other than it's German and made of wooden tubing as it was emailed to me with no other info. Certainly looks interesting and quite feasible, though I have the same initial suspicions as most I'm sure about the risk of delamination in the seat stays.
