Whilst looking at shots of vodka isn’t exactly at the top of our activities list (although its above watching the washing machine spin), this Bloody Brain Shooter concoction had us compelled to stare.

Mixing acidic lime juice and irish cream creates the curdling brain-like strands and un-tasty as it looks, sounds like it goes down a dream.

I love these illustrations converted to target posters featuring a slew of movie and game baddies. A simple and effective idea by Olly Moss.

Previously posted Recycled Parts Robots producer Paul Loughridge has also created a lunchbox based on the classic Airstream.

It is a Vintage Heavy Duty aluminum lunch box with a set of “doubles” of an old Tonka dump truck and a pair of propane tanks (…35mm film canisters). It sits at 15.5″ long x 8.5 tall” x 5.5 wide”

I love this concept design for the PSP! It doesn’t look like its as practical to use as a gaming device than the current design with controls on either side of the screen. But its as stylish as hell and works as an excellently simple screen for your movies when closed.

Michael Hughes buys souvenirs as he travels and takes photos of them in place of the real thing. A simple idea and fun to see.

Yurko Gutsulyak designed this delightfully dangerous Calendar of Matches.

Each page is a month with a comb made of matches with each match corresponding to a day.

The matches are real and the construction of the calendar is absolutely safe, although I would suggest this item is for the riskier of us. Maybe if there are any stuntmen in the house?

These guys, who call themselves the Bartendaz, use their own body weight instead of weights to train. Its a form of calisthenics and looks to be a creative way to exercise when weights and resistance machines aren’t an option. Pretty inspiring!
