The Art of Logo Design - Off Book PBS

"A logo is an extension of who you are or what you do."

Logos surround us in digital and physical space, but we rarely examine the thought and artistic thinking that goes into the design of these symbols. Utilizing a silent vocabulary of colors, shapes, and typography, logo designers give a visual identity to companies and organizations of all types. From cave painters to modern designers, artists throughout history have been reducing the complex down to simple ideas that communicate with the world.

Arsenal supporters must be spewing. Robin Van Persie would've had a 40+ goal season...

A map of world alcohol consumption

THE world drank the equivalent of 6.1 litres of pure alcohol per person in 2005, according to a report from the World Health Organisation published on February 11th.

Moldovans consume the most alcohol, getting through 18.2 litres each, nearly 2 litres more than the Czechs in second place.

As you can see, Australia is in the second tier on the chart, 10-12.49 litres person (over the age of 15).

I think if we all chip in, we can start playing with the big boys in first tier!
