This was my project for today. (Link to the photo in question)
These people are downright insane for making that kind of food. Who can eat that much food in a meal?! It’s impossible!
The lawsuit centered on a chemical called acrylamide, which has been listed as a cancer-causing substance in California since 1990. Acrylamide is used industrially for sewage treatment.
So apparently this acrylamide thing is naturally produced in potatoes, but only when heat treated with high temperatures (frying). Fuck that is what I tell you. I’m making my own shit from now on.
Olestra (also known by its brand name Olean) is a fat substitute that adds no fat, calories or cholesterol to products. It was created by Procter & Gamble in 1968.
And causes anal leakage, but you didn’t know that. Just remember it if you choose to eat fat free Pringles (Look for the word “Olean” in the fine print).
Beautiful signage for a parking garage. By no means a new concept, but very very well executed. I love this kind of stuff.
Well not really, but my boy Marcus from Minggl was representing!

A 40-year-old man is in custody in Manitoba after a young man was stabbed — and, witnesses said, decapitated — aboard a Greyhound bus travelling through the province overnight.
The world is becoming scarier as each day pass by, I swear. Seriously, a guy sitting on a bus, listening to his music and gets stabbed 50 times, decapitated and even cannibalized?! For fucks sake…
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 27 kilometer (17 mile) long particle accelerator straddling the border of Switzerland and France, is nearly set to begin its first particle beam tests.
The thing is gynormous.
What distinguishes hipsters for me is that they believe in nothing, but unconsciously so. It’s not nihilism, because nihilism is well-considered position. Hipsters are, to my mind, the first utterly apolitical, a-philosolphical subculture of the postwar era.
A very good take on describing the subculture. Read the AdBusters piece as well.
I was just talking to Jovana, and an interesting thought about sayings came to me. It is amazing how true and in place they can be.
We are in a process of trying to find a place to go to for our summer vacation, and since it is not just up to us (we are going with friends) it is basically a series of compromises we all need to make in order to respect everyone’s needs and wishes. While going through all this, I’ve found these two sayings to be the best:
Kad je bal, nek’ je bal.
Loose translation would be “when it’s a party, make it a party.” People tend to use this one when they are calculating how much will something cost (usually an event), when they realize it’s probably going to cost more than they had planned, or even have – they say this meaning “who gives a fuck, if we’re partying, we’ll make it the best party ever.”
When it rains, it pours.
This is a saying I am in a position to use almost every week. You can relate it to a whole bunch of situations, but mainly it is associated with low times and when things start falling down (or they appear to.) For example, you may keep a low pace at work, and then all of a sudden a flood of requests, RFPs and whatnot comes over you and you can’t catch a breather.
Do you have any favorites? Please, do share.
It’s basically a ridiculously huge resource on anything you might ever need in regards to Web design. It’s like an internet of it’s own.
The keys to a good sandwich are the three Bs: bread, balance, and…ok, there’s only two Bs, but they’re important. Aside from the main ingredient (turkey, tuna, chicken salad, etc.), the bread has the power to make or break a sandwich. The first thing you taste when you take a bite is the bread, so it had better be good and it had better be fresh.
Jason Kottke on sandwiches. Check out what he says about the bread – he’s spot on. The bread is the single most important ingredient of the sandwich. Remember that and experiment!
The Russian government is in the process of drafting a law to make emo and goth music illegal.
Apparently it will be pushed live before the end of the year.
COLUMBUS, OH—A bravely worded e-mail written by graphic designer Brent Quigley decrying his advertising firm’s “complete lack of managerial competence” and its “utter failure to treat employees with respect” has remained inside the drafts folder since it was first composed on Dec. 4, 2007.
The Onion wins again.
You can’t help but feel like this sometimes when you are a designer.
Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.
Michael Pollan’s conclusion after experiencing an “omnivore’s diet”1.

See and hear Why? Live from 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis, MN on April 6th, 2008. Beautiful shit.
‘Bull’ is a suite of eleven lithographs that have become a master class in how to develop an artwork from the academic to the abstract.
He ends it with just twelve line strokes. Pure genius, and the end result is just astonishing, as well as the process.
