Coffee Joulies
As I come from Melbourne, the city of coffee snobs, I would probably never have a use for these Coffee Joulies. But I think these guys are really sweet and may be onto something here. So what is is? Well, ‘Coffee Joulies work with your coffee to achieve two goals.
First, they absorb extra thermal energy in your coffee when it’s served too hot, cooling it down to a drinkable temperature three times faster than normal. Next, they release that stored energy back into your coffee keeping it in the right temperature range twice as long’. For those of you burning your tongues on too hot lattes or having to pour out the second half of a luke-warm to freezing mocha, get on board!

Tom Fruin’s Glass House in Copenhagen
New York-artist Tom Fruin shows us how one man’s trash can become one city’s treasure. His latest creation, the Kolonihavehus, is situated in the plaza of the Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen. Throwing back to the 19th century Danish tradition of Kolonihave — ‘little house with garden’ — Fruin’s sculpture is made from a thousand reclaimed pieces of plexiglass found in dumpsters around the city.

@jezebel: why would a kid be drinking coffee? Also, do you think these “Joulies” are aimed at children?

my only concern would be having a stainless steele object in a hot liquid for a prolonged period of time = metalic oxide poisoning. … or breaking your teeth if you forget they are
there on the last gulp.

Norman Saunders was one of the most celebrated pulp artists of the ’30s, ’40s, ’50s, and ’60s, with his images adorning the covers of thousands of comic books, dimestore paperbacks, and trashy men’s magazines. The Illustrated Press has just published a retrospective of Saunders’ work. Read more
The face is arguably the most captivating image in art because we instinctually stare at them. It’s interesting then that when artists such as Cengiz Bodur create images that are distinctly face like but lacking all facial features, they still hold our gaze. Read more

My roommate Adam and I have been playing Mark McGuire’s album, Pocket Full of Rain, all summer and some other tapes our other roommate has showed us that he did. I really like everything this guy has done. I sit and watch him play guitar on YouTube when I’m bored.

To be honest, I can’t bring myself to care about the new TSA scanners in airports. It’s not like they can’t already see and know everything about you already. However, I love these garments with the 4th Amendment printed on them in metallic ink so that the text show up clearly on scanners.

As a Melbourne newbie, may I just enquire as to when you have ever been served a coffee in Melbourne that has been anything other than just above tepid …if that? I say Melbourne but really mean the CBD and Brunswick corridor because as soon as I go anywhere else and ask for an extra hot flat white, they say, ‘don’t worry love we’re not like in the city’.
