It’s Monday morning at a Starbucks in Sydney’s Central Business District: peak time for nearby office types to gulp their morning caffeine injection before embarking on another busy day of wearing uncomfortable shoes and answering the phone by saying “Talk to me”.

This Is Why Australians Hate Starbucks

And yet the coffee shop is looking decidedly un-peak. A couple of tourists lounge on the oversized sofas with oversized Frappuccinos but there’s no line up for skinny lattes or harangued interns juggling trays of complicated coffee orders. That’s because they’re all in the laneway espresso bar around the corner, chatting with a barista who notices that they’ve done something new with their hair and knows how they like the froth on their almond milk macchiato. Unlike almost every other country in the developed world, Australia does not do Starbucks. Jake Green and Simon Poon Tip Document the Afterhours Mall Skate Scene in Stratford, London.

A car park, FFS. The parking lot in question holds up to eight cars. Ashley Coleman, head of Carter Jonas Mayfair, the agents handling the sale, told the Evening Standard that "collective parking space in Mayfair is a rare commodity and this opportunity to purchase a forecourt of eight is most unique.

The London Skyline Is Becoming a Collection of Expensive, Towering Penises

In fact, it feels like we hear plans for a new corporate skyscraper every month, each one an opportunity for a handful of investors to thrust their financial brawn into the clouds, competing with all the capital's other phallic eyesores for our indifference. I wanted to talk to someone about London's architecture and how it's been affected by the arrogance of wealth, so I got in touch with the eminent design critic Stephen Bayley, who once spent a few months as the creative director of the Millennium Dome but left in dismay at the chaos that surrounded him.

Departure - Home. Wool Warehouses. Import and exportMany Docklands warehouses were dedicated to a single imported product, of which from the late-19th to the mid-20th century wool was pre-eminent.

Wool Warehouses

Wool was originally a British export, and of key importance to the national economy. Until the reign of Edward III it could only be exported from designated ('staple') ports, including London. But the emphasis shifted to exporting worked cloth - a 1337 edict prohibited the export of raw wool and encouraged Flemish and other weavers to come to England - and seven years later the import of raw wool was permitted.

In the 19th century, most wool came from Australia and New Zealand (from Spanish Merino sheep, which were best-suited to local conditions). It was sold on the London market, but went elsewhere - to British manufacturers mainly in Yorkshire and Gloucestershire, plus onward exports to the Continent (about 40% by the 1920s). Auctions.

Bob Mazzer On The Tube. “There’s definitely a link between being born in Aldgate and taking all these pictures on the tube,” admitted photographer Bob Mazzer, “You don’t think you are starting a project, but one day you look back over your recent pictures and there are a dozen connected images, and you realise it is the beginning of a project – and then you fall in love with it.” “For a while in the eighties, I lived with my father in Manor House and worked as a projectionist at a porn cinema in Kings Cross. It was called The Office Cinema, so guys could call their wives and say, ‘I’m still at the office.’” recalled Bob affectionately, “Every day, I travelled to Kings Cross and back. Coming home late at night, it was like a party and I felt the tube was mine and I was there to take pictures.”

Making 35mm Slide Like Photography Business Cards. Here is a neat way to reuse 35mm slides (or slide frames) aside from Blasting them all over your photos. Photographer Jernej Lasič created those wonderfully delicious business cards made from 35mm slides frames and printed transparency paper. The process starts at printing contact details on a semi-transparent paper, cutting it, and then placing each little sheet in a reused 35mm frame. The cool thing about it is that Jernej did not buy any slides at all, but reused his old stock. And even better yet, he made a tutorial on how to make a set of those cool business cards yourself. You can read the Slovenian version over at Jernej’s Blog, or head over to PetaPixel for an English translation.
