The PixlBlog Continuous Pencil by U Jung Heo, Young Gag Han & Sa Yoeng Kim & Yanko Design Never Ending Pencil To cut a long story short, what we have here is a simple writing tool called the Continuous Pencil, which can be used till the very end. We usually end up discarding pencil stubs…I know my children waste too many saying that short pencils are uncomfortable to hold. So basically you keep increasing the length of your stubs with a handy interim-headless-long stick that fits snugly into its rear. Quite simple and straight, but is it a refinement of the 1 + 1 Pencil? The Continuous Pencil won an iF Concept Design this year! Designers: U Jung Heo, Young Gag Han & Sa Yoeng Kim

Sculptures by Adam Beane Adam Beane is quite unique sculptor. Since beginning sculpting in 2002 he is known for dynamic compositions, action poses, nuanced drapery work and his ability to capture likenesses with expressions. For the work he uses CX5, a tremendously versatile material he developed which handles like clay when warm but is hard as plastic when cool. In this collection you will find mini copies of famous people and will be surprised how unbelievable realistic they look. Many of them were made for toys companies and may be you could find beautiful works of Adam Beane in supermarkets. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost John K Stuff Installing CoffeeShop Actions

Awesome looking – 3D Tattoo These days, people become not satisfy with the 2D image. Hence we have lots of things in 3D format, 3D Murals Painting, 3D Street Painting, and 3D Chalk Painting. And now, we have 3D tattoo. The reason I wrote this poster, is just because I was freak out today by seeing one of those 3D tattoo… They are pretty scary or cool at first view. But if you look at those details on the tattoo, that is really awesome work. I just can’t imagine how much pain I have to endure to give that tattoo… I don’t have that kind of courage.

01 h Race against the tide: Artist creates intricate masterpieces... that the sea washes away within hours By Eddie Wrenn Updated: 17:19 GMT, 27 July 2009 When artists see a canvas, most of them want to fill it, even if it's with nothing more than a doodle. But sand artist Andres Amador works with one of the biggest canvases available, with entire lengths of beaches swallowed up by his art. Sadly the sea is no discerning art critic, for once the San Francisco artist finishes his staggering artwork, the waves come in to wipe the slate clean. Enlarge Waves on the beach: Andres Amador has been producing sand art on Ocean Beach in San Fransisco for five years Circles on the beach: The giant structures make for an interesting coastal walk Many of his stunning images, which start out as simple squiggles in the 39-year-old's notebook, span an incredible 500x300feet and are raked into the grains in a race against the tide. Using a canvas crafted by the elements the patient American waits for a full or new moon to make sure low tides offer him plenty of space to muster the incredible patterns.

NUCLEAR WEAPONS - Plan to ship Hanford leaked waste to WIPP decried "This is a bad, old idea that's been uniformly rejected on a bipartisan basis by politicians when it came up in the past, and it's been strongly opposed by citizen groups like mine and others," said Don Hancock, a member of the watchdog group Southwest Research and Information in Albuquerque. "It's also clear that it's illegal." Hancock was commenting on federal plans to ship some of the radioactive waste from Washington's Hanford Nuclear Reserve to New Mexico, a plan supported by Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D).
