For all of us that wont be celebrating come Jan 20th"¦. it was only a matter of time until someone manufactured these "I did not vote 4 Bush bracelets. This is from the same people that manufactured the Livestrong bracelets. A symbolic black, my guess these will catch on just as the rest of them did. I wonder if Kerry will get one, he was often seen with his Yellow livestrong bracelet. [via pop gadget]

Snap, you break your skateboard deck, it's useless now"¦To the dumpster it goes"¦ But wait, someone, like Becky Hickey might want to use it for her one-of-a-kind line of bags and accessories constructed with recycled skateboards and some really high end fabrics. My ‘faves include the bag shown, the belt buckle, and the money clip.. All her bags and accessories are hand made in her New York studio. She says, "The grittiness of used beat up boards combined with something really posh like silk speaks well to my overall aesthetic"¦and the beautiful contradiction that results, fuels my creativity”. Creative indeed, and thoughtful too; she gives $3 for every donated board to a variety of non-profit organizations dedicated to building and maintaining public skate parks.

This maharishi belt buckle is just one of the many bad-ass MHI products available from the hanon-shop. I've been lusting after a handful of these designs for sometime now, and this shop has a few available that I've never seen anywhere before. They also have a bunch of Adidas Originals, some nice kicks, and a handful of other rare goodies. Worth a visit.
