That signature is interesting. Look at how small and closed in it is, like there's something that needs to be hidden. And so tightly controlled.

    Lovely. Sadly, we can't stomp on them or blow them.

    If there's one thing Mad Men taught us (aside from how to cheat on your wife with multiple women), it's that working in advertising takes a lot of creativity and pizzazz. Some of the awesome design examples you see on this list are from advertisements, and their genius often lies in a perfectly executed idea through beautiful graphic design.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Take the WWF campaign urging people to protect wildlife. The Twitter bird turning into an X is a clever representation of what happens when we ignore conservation efforts, but in the animal kingdom. The campaign was created by a German chapter of WWF in 2023 together with the advertising agency McCann Germany.

    "The whole world mourns the loss of the Twitter bird," the caption of the ad reads. "Around 1 million real animal species are threatened with extinction. Today we are in the midst of the greatest extinction of species since the end of the dinosaur era. A quarter of mammal species, one in eight bird species, more than 30 percent of sharks and rays, and 40 percent of amphibian species are threatened. Help us save the animals. An initiative of WWF Germany & us!"

    There's a really good documentary about this issue. I think it's called "Seaspiracy", and basically all the sea creatures that unalive due to plastic waste are a direct result of the waste left behind by the commercial fishing industry. This ad itself was paid for by subsidiaries of the commercial fishing industry. Plastic straws and bags are infinitesimal (tried to think of the "smallest" word I knew) in comparison.

    Fountains shaped like dandelions sure look pretty. Many cities know that; that's why they've built similar versions of the one you see in this list. Our example is from Baku, Azerbaijan, aptly named Fountains Square. There's also one in Houston, a small version in Dresden, and one along 6th Avenue in Manhattan.

    Sydney, Australia, also has one. It was built in 1961 as a commemoration of the Battle of El Alamein in Egypt during WWII. It has 211 "stalks," but it's the hundreds of saucer-shaped films that extrude water, making it look like a giant thistledown. The fountain's artist, architect Robert (Bob) Woodward AM, became so famous after designing this piece that he gained prominence internationally.

    Some public service messages need to be constantly repeated because each year new people join the relevant cohort. For example, a young person with their first car and driving for the first time without mum or dad might be tempted to not wear a seat belt.

    Good image, that's exactly how I would look if I had been wearing my belt when I got hit in the side. Impact displaced the lower mounting point in and back 18 inches. If you think that's survivable, I invite you to have someone shorten your belt 18" while you sit in your seat. Fact is, seatbelts CAN save lives. They are equally likely to k**l or injure you. They will never release the data showing how many people came out worse because of the belt and/or airbag because it will disprove their campaign. Media is always quick to say "person wasn't wearing", but they never point out if it would've made a difference. Likewise, in a fatality they will never say "victim was wearing and that's what k****d them."

    The "Less Plastic" campaign in the UK that depicts plastic knife heads as shark fins was created by a U.S. ad agency, Project Worldwide, in 2018. Other posters included in the campaign used other plastic cutlery as symbols. Forks resembled the hands and arms of a possibly drowning person. A plastic straw looked like the Loch Ness monster. And a plastic bag formed a wave, reminding people that there might soon be more plastic in the oceans than water.

    The incredible posters for the Korean stage production of Macbeth are the creation of the Japanese photographer Yuni Yoshida. Many experts praised Yoshida's use of negative space and incorporation of the play's themes into the artwork. The director of the play, Yang Jung-woong, described how his staging is still relevant to modern audiences. "It vividly portrays the inescapable downfall that follows ambition, along with the sense of loss, guilt and moral conflict that come afterward."

    The lizard gate at the Atlanta Botanical Garden looks cool and fits its location perfectly. Created by blacksmith Andrew Crawford, it was installed at the Gardens' entrance to the Japanese Garden in 2012. That year, an Atlanta Blooms event took place, and the gate was the addition to the Gardens for that occasion. Crawford has also designed another gate for the Atlanta Botanical Gardens, the "Herb Garden Gate."

    Not anarchic. Anarchy is where there is no organised power, and people do the right thing out of social sense and cooperation. Quite the opposite. Perhaps better autocracy (I rule because I say so), oligarchy (me and my pals rule), or straight monarchy (just one person rules)

    Worse than that, we can't 'take' - i.e. , presumably, be happy with - the death of truth in power, widespread kleptocracy in politics, and flagrant law-breaking requiring 'pardons' for his supporters, lawfare against anyone outside his tribe, and US armed forces executing anyone they choose, in international waters. The USA used to have the Constitution and the rule of law - now all that remains is a dictator and the rule of fear. I live in fear of a second Civil War - which would be 'settled' by Russia , dividing the country and taking all the best bits for themselves.

    I imagine at least one of the EMS workers would notice. Even if they do not, it does no harm to have the sticker on there. Perhaps this has become a common-enough practice that EMS would check the helmet. I've heard stories from my dad (he was in the Vietnam War) about how soldiers would write their blood types on their helmets or their boots, and medics knew to check those places first. I have a small medical/personal info ID tag clipped to my wallet that gives my blood type and also notes that I have no known allergies and no medical conditions. It also lists phone numbers for my next of kin. I don't know if EMS workers would check that tag, but it's reassuring to have it there just in case.

    Good idea but useless, unfortunately. As medical professionals we can’t use any information taken from helmet/bracelet/whatever. We can’t be sure the item is really yours, not borrowed. Even if the patient tells us his blood type himself, it needs to be checked in the lab. The test is quick and cheap, and not using the correct blood type can cause serious harm, possible death. Not worth risking.

    A better sticker would be one saying "do not remove helmet" - this has reminded me I need to get one for my current lid. Point is, if you've crashed wearing a motorcycling helmet and you're unconscious, there's a good chance you've got some sort of spinal injury. Leave the helmet removal to those with the training to do it safely.

    As a Paramedic I always want to see the helmet of any motorcyclist involved in a collision, as damage can be a good indicator of the forces that the head has gone through. I was taught that the helmet always travels with the patient, as the medical staff in ED will do the same check, so it makes perfect sense to have blood group on the helmet. You can get Helmet ID tags in the UK as well, which can have vital emergency information on them, ideal for construction workers and motorcyclists (search helmet ID tag if interested...)

    Hello UKDeek the paramedic. Curiousity leads me to ask: but I thought they alway checked blood type with a proper test before giving a transfusion? Am I wrong? If I'm not, what advantage is there in having any sort of tag with your blood type on it?

    Was on a hwy rescue for years. We did not care about blood type or med alert bracelets, DNRs etc. Our main focus was getting you out, stabilized as much as possible and into an ambulance with the medics and on the way to the hospital, although if time and conditions allowed we would start to collect info beyond vitals. It might be of use in the hospital but why trust a helmet that for all they know you borrowed from a friend?

    In San Francisco they hired an 'artist' to design the new shelters (skirting the rules for public input) and when it was pointed out that they don't keep out the rain he said, "Why would you want to be waiting for a bus in the rain?" They have translucent wavy red plastic roofs that aren't slanted so their valley have all filled up with detritus. I'd say Rule #1 for roof design is that they provide run-off, wouldn't you?

    They're very well known in the UK, so much so that a lot of residents will recognise the company even when it's this blurred. Their TV adverts are funny, worth a look on YouTube!

    It's a Polish ad, so presumably they mean recipe. All ingredients are grown locally. In some languages translations for receipt, recipe and prescription are mixed up. In Dutch for example 'recept' means 'recipe'. not 'receipt'. A prescription is also called a 'recept'.

I'm not sure exactly what tech was used in that particular model. Some Lagondas used LCDs, some used cathode ray tube displays (TV tubes), and some used vacuum fluorescent displays. If any of them didn't break down much more often than any luxury car owner would expect, I've not heard of it... 🤣

    It's a play on words and the visuals - the message is supposed to be that mass media is manufacturing consent by manufacturing content. That basically means that when media publishes stories about something that have a certain spin on the story (say Fox News and how they are incredibly conservative and right-leaning) - they produce tons of content with that "spin" on it. So the people who consume that media start to believe that it's actually reality and not a politically-spun lie. Thus, the "consent" of the consumers changes to match what the media outlet is creating. Basically they are saying that mass media is a propaganda machine that can literally change peoples' minds and their opinions.
