The World as a Cylinder

These distorted panoramic photographers are by Randy Scott Slavin for his Alternate Perspective series. He can take up to a hundred pictures of a scene to build up a 360 degree image before stitching them together to make a stereographic projection.

You hear that? Listen closely, the Geordie twang, heralding the end of society as we know it. Remember the Mayan prophecy about 2012, the end of the world? Well, look at this series about the north of England as the bell tolls.

Summer means hanging out at the beach (if you are lucky enough not to have a real job) and taking in the total funny eye candy of everyday people going about their, sometimes, weird, buisness.

You can never have an ordinary meal at any of these establishments. This is one for those who require a certain amount of ambiance for their dining pleasure! The toilet restaurant is not only fun, it's convenient (boom-tish)!

Puppies, kittens, lambs, calfs, you name it - if they are the animal world's newest editions and wrapped in soft fuzzy fur then our brain switches into mushy-gooey-mode and all we want to do is cuddle them and keep them safe.

I once had a position in a lettuce factory and it was my job to peel off the outer leaves and cut it down the middle, then pass it on. I lasted a day. And it wasn't like I was sucking the cr*p out of festival toilets either. Crap jobs, eh?

Man, it’s tough being rich. You may think you have a hard time making ends meet and trying to pay the rent/mortgage/maintain your Star Wars action figure collection, but that’s nothing compared to the dilemmas besetting the uber rich.

We've had planking, owling, and batmanning. Now those weird internet types have come up with another craze that will be sweeping the globe. Cat breading. Sounds ridiculous, is ridiculous, is also pretty funny.

Not sure whether these would sell too well or even if they'd past safety regulations, but they're pretty damn cool. Created to the precise blueprints of tiny hands and simple minds, each one is unique.

Quite possibly the best combination of exotic objects to make men drool over on the planet, it's a magical combination. For once if you fail to notice the cute chick in the photo you are not gay!
