The fabulous Heidi Minx is at it again. Our good friend has penned herself a fab new book, Home Rockanomics, for all you DIY types out there whose style is a bit edgier than what you might find on one of those oh-so-popular design or home-makeover shows.

The talented mastermind behind Franky & Minx, Built On Respect, and Punk Rock Domestics, Heidi has often been labeled a "poster child for DIY," so who better to write this guide, right? I'm just happy she's sharing her crafty works with the rest of us!

Home Rockanomics is packed full of decorating tips, ideas for revamping your wardrobe, and yummy vegan and vegetarian recipes from Heidi herself, as well as some of her friends like Theo Kogan from Lunachicks/TATS, Sick of It All, Bif Naked, and Flogging Molly to name but a few.

Want to get your hands on your very own copy? Just comment below with your favorite DIY decorating or style tip and 10 lucky winners will be chosen at random by November 17, 2009. Winners will be notified by November 20, 2009.

Video Interview with The A.K.A.s! August 4, 2009

Warped Tour is still in full effect, and we couldn't be more stoked. Not only is Warped a time where we can see awesome bands and hang out with our friends, but it's also a good opportunity to check out some organizations out there that are trying to make the world a better place.

When we heard that our good friend (and vegetarian!) Heidi Minx, got a chance to sit down with one our favorite bands, The A.K.A.s to talk about making a difference for Inked Magazine's "Inked For A Cause" column—we were so excited! Not only is Heidi the mastermind designer behind Franky & Minx and Punk Rock Domestics, but she also makes a positive impact with her own non-profit group, Built on Respect.

Who better to interview about this topic than the A.K.A.s' vocalist? Mike Ski has worked with multiple causes like Warped Eco Initiative, Filter For Good, Invisible Children, and us here at peta2. My favorite part of this interview is when Mike mentions that if he could choose one thing to tell one person to do on a daily basis to make the world a better place, it would be to go vegetarian! Find out why, and hear Mike talk about our "Animal Testing Breaks Hearts" campaign in the video below.

What do you do to make the world a better place?
