Cop a Deck for a Cause
by Josh Rubin
You've played the on-line version, now you can have a Pair-o-deez deck of your own. For just $10 plus shipping and handling, you can own the sneaker memory game featuring selections from Josh's collection.
For every deck purchased we'll donate $2.50 to the Humane Society Disaster Relief Fund to help lost and abandoned pets in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. We have 1,000 decks to sell so our goal is to raise $2500.

Arne Svenson "Portraits"
by Evan Orensten
If you're in Los Angeles try and catch Portraits, the new work of photographer Arne Svenson at Western Project gallery. Svenson spent three years researching and photographing forensic facial reconstruction sculptures. The images are attempts at reconstructing identities; when you look at them it's hard not to think about the people they represent, their lives, and what terrible fate they met. The show closes October 8th. Additional images can be seen here.
Johnny Cupcakes
by Carol T Chung
Absolutely wonderful. Like Josh, I too have a thing for skulls, but I also have a soft spot for cupcakes as well. I think of late night runs to Magnolia Bakery and staring at Marc Jacob shoes like some pathetic lost puppy while I chomp down on a mouthful of sugary frosting... Ahem, excuse my bit of East Coast nostalgia. Johnny Cupcakes features cupcake themed clothing and accessories. Not into the cupcake crossbones t-shirt? Well, there are still plenty of other witty cupcake themed items with more to come in October for Halloween. Johnny's items are available online as well as at select boutiques (a list should be added to the website soon). And if you happen to live in or aound Hull, Massachusetts, you can go check out the new Johnny Cupcakes retail boutique.
