WIRES: Flying Fox

Flying Fox

Some frequent flyers have more to lose than their luggage.
The next time you find yourself pondering the joys of air travel, spare a thought for our flying foxes. Given the choice, they’d gladly swap airline food and over zealous customs agents for the barbed wire fences and power lines that ground many of them permanently. And considering their vital role in pollinating our native forests, it’s in all our best interest to keep them airborne. Our volunteers rescue and rehabilitate dozens every year, but there are many they can’t save. If you’d like to help, go to wires.org.au and find out how you can become a volunteer.

WIRES: Bower

Bower

The turkey was wild. And after four hours with his head stuck in the can, the bower bird was pretty livid too.
Spending a hot Saturday afternoon in a can of Bourbon and cola might be an appealing thought to many Australians, but for this underage drinker it nearly led to a sticky end. Every day, hundreds of our native animals are forced out of their natural habitats and into contact with humans. Thanks to a Wires volunteer, this one escaped with just a dry throat and a sore head, but many aren’t so lucky. If you’d like to help, go to wires.org.au and find out how you can become a volunteer.

Extreme Fashion Marketing – Claremont by Adam Kimmel Via High-Speed Skateboard

Extreme skateboarding meets fashion in, Adam Kimmel Presents:  Claremont.  Kimmel is a clothing designer whose designer fashions have appeared in such magazines as Vogue, GQ Style, Vanity Fair, Dazed & Confused</i>, and numerous others.

In Adam Kimmel Presents:  Claremont, Noah Sakamoto and Patrick Rizzo are wearing suits from Kimmel’s 2009 Spring Collection while they zoom down a road on the West Coast in Claremont.  They rocket down the pavement at high speeds with hills and curves, and meet a few cars along the way. 

All of the action was caught on a camcorder that was exchanged by Rizzo and Sakamoto throughout their gutsy skateboarding adventure.  I’m not sure which of the guys exclaimed, “Oh my God!” when they had a close call with a vehicle, but I know who was freaking out while saying, “Holy Shitzu!”—…
