Create your own coasters with these pixel cards [non-English site]. The pack of 50 coasters is made from paper fiber that should hold up to condensation and comes in both blue and pink.

The stack of coasters are joined by perforations, so you’re not restricted to the standard square shape. The individual pixels are also perforated, allowing you to tear them into individual pieces. Each coaster has a random organization of pixels, so they’re all different.

On this day in History, Ansel Adams took one of his more famous images, “Moonrise”. According to Wikipedia, this image was taken in 1941.

“American photographer Ansel Adams takes a picture of a moonrise over the town of Hernandez, New Mexico that would become one of the most famous images in the history of photography. “

I thought this was an appropriate image for Halloween, as it was one of Ansel Adams darker photographs and captures the mood usually associated with Halloween.

Justin.tv started out as just one man, Justin Kan, who wore a cam on his cap and broadcast his life 24/7. Now it’s one of the biggest live streaming sites if not the biggest.

Now you can add it to the list of sites along with stickam and blogtv where predators roam.

Duncan Riley over at The Inquisitr has received substantial materials that indicate that not only did 13-year-old girls expose themselves on Justin.tv but also they were encouraged to do so by Justin.tv users. No nudity was included with those materials but one only has to read them to know that it happened.

Like stickam and blogtv, Justin.tv relies on users flagging inappropriate use to moderate their live streams.

Heatherette always has a fun, wild collection – Spring 08 is no exception. I was impressed with the number of truly wearable pieces that still hold on to that playful Heatherette style. There were still some of those trademark Heatherette art pieces there. Trends spotted on the Heatherette runway: lots of red white and blue and America-themes; bright plaids; and corsets. Lots of beaded, braided, and fringed details.

Ugg’s succinct and descriptive name almost didn’t make it to the States.

The term “Ugg” was used traditionally to refer to any boot lined with sheepskin. This followed a technique that began when shearers in Australia would wrap sheepskin around their feet to keep warm.

It wasn’t until the 1970s, that Australian surfer Brian Smith coined the term and sold it to U.S. manufacturers, Decker Outdoor Corporation.

In 2004, the Ugg boot trend was at its height, and the boots were becoming more popular than ever. To corner the market, Decker sent a letter to all Australian manufacturers warning against using the term Ugg or any forms of the word.

The government of de facto Honduran President Roberto Micheletti is not ready to sign a proposed agreement to end the country’s ongoing political crisis, Costa Rican Foreign Minister Bruno Stagno said in Honduras.

His remarks came on Tuesday at the conclusion of a two-day visit by a delegation of the Organization of American States.

“Although the commission concludes that progress was made during its visit, it must recognize that there still no disposition toward full acceptance of the San Jose Accord on the part of Mr. Micheletti or his supporters,” Stagno said.

The proposed San Jose Accord aims to resolve nearly two months of political turmoil that Honduras has faced following the June 28 coup that ousted President Jose Manuel Zelaya.

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said he is preparing to break off diplomatic relations with Colombia over the neighboring country’s plan to allow U.S. troops access to its military bases.

“It is going to happen,” Chavez said on Tuesday in a state broadcast. “We are going to prepare for this, because the Colombian bourgeoisie hates us. And now, it just isn’t possible to make up. No, it is impossible.

“The agreement of the seven bases is a declaration of war against the Bolivarian Revolution,” Chavez added, referring to his socialist political movement, which he named after 19th-century Venezuelan leader Simon Bolivar.

Relations between the two countries have been tense since Colombia entered into negotiations with the United States to allow its troops to operate from seven bases.

Maybe it was anxiety over his upcoming comeback concert series in London, England. Perhaps his body was trying to process too many different medications.

The reason may never be known, but a sworn affidavit makes clear that the King of Pop couldn’t get rest the night before he died on June 25.

The affidavit, from Detective Orlando Martinez of the Los Angeles Police Department, outlines probable cause for search warrants on the offices of doctors who are thought to have treated Jackson.

Yet it also opens a window into Jackson’s final hours, revealing information about the singer’s treatment and the drugs given him by Dr. Conrad Murray, his personal physician, before his death.

Being a girl in Hollywood just sucks sometimes. Get photographed at a bad angle and your famous face will be splashed all over the tabs along with the word cellulite. (Kim Kardashian, anyone? Too ridic.)

Sure, thin will always be “in” in this superficial Biz of ours, but there’s nothing more unattractive than being too damn skinny.

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz is the most recent inductee to this withering-away class of actresses, joining the likes of the Olsens, Lindsay Lohan and Keira Knightley.
