On the front page of The LondonPaper's website right now, by the way, there's an article about how Isabella Blow (whomever the fuck that might be) has died of cancer. They claim she was an eccentric fashion person of some sort.

My guess is that there's some relation between printing pictures like that and having a web site that's just not always accessible.
