so I came across this posting from Pentagram's blog just now....
thought that I would post it up and share it to ya'll !

The post is a new work that done by Pentagram call "a Texas designer's map of the world". Quit amazing graphic and how all the elements work together.

the info graphic

so, my second try on the info-graphic wasn't that successful....
And to be honest, I kinda lost interest on the topic.

So, I found this book called "fortune- telling: book of dreams "
basically its a book that tells you what things that appears in your dreams mean - A-Z.

I think it would be kinda fun to work with little icons of each objects and their explanation... I know Im behind on this....but I wanna give this new topic a try....

a household item

Does a eraser count as a household item??

I have couple of ideas in mind.....and this is one of them...

My idea is the "say-good-bye-to-wrinkle eraser "
rubbing an eraser on face.... I think its
kind of a scary idea to to think about...yes/ no?

And I kinda want to make it a cheesy TV product kinda thing with this
"you know they did this in photoshop " kind of before / after comparison!

so i found this fun data on Sperling's.

Here's the part I think I'm going to work with///

Where do the lonely hearts live?

"As interesting as the nation as a whole is trending," Sperling said, "we want to see which places had the greatest percentage of single men and women."

Sperling's firm broke down the data by metro area, revealing interesting patterns on where singles live.

San Francisco seems to attract single people like a good pickup line, if there is such a thing. Compared to every other metro area in the U.S., the San Francisco region, which includes areas south like San Mateo and Redwood City, has the highest percentage of single people.

Detroit, with 43% singles, is second only to San Francisco. New York, and Boston round out the top four.

Most southern cities are not flush with single people. Those cities in southern states that have more singles are homes to colleges, where students might choose to remain after graduation, or are known for their nightlife. New Orleans, Austin, and a handful of Florida cities all have more singles than the national average.

"There has to be a lot going on for singles," said David Evans in a phone interview with BestPlaces. Evans is an online dating researcher based in Boston, a city that is 39% single. Evans said Boston has the key factors for single living. "It's a college town, it has nightlife, culture, and lots of jobs."

Whether by choice or circumstance, many are living in some of the biggest cities, surrounded by millions, and still find themselves alone.

The Top Ten "Solo Cities:"

Rank	Metro	% Single
1	San Francisco, CA	44.7
2	Detroit, MI	44
3	New York, NY	39.8
4	Boston, MA	39.2
5	New Orleans, LA	39.1
6	Los Angeles, CA	37.7
7	Fort Lauderdale, FL	37.2
8	Las Vegas, NV	37
9	Miami, FL	36.9
10	Albuquerque, NM	36.8

ok, so.
