"Design is in everything we make, but it's also between those things. It's a mix of craft, science, storytelling, propaganda and philosophy." (Erik Adigard)
Since everything started moving on the Internet a while ago, the toughest battles are fought online. And what's the most lethal weapon in this battle? The image. Therefore, an image with high potential value should reveal hard work and brainstorms and must deliver convincing ideas that captivate and spill a drop of philosophy.

Fairer Sex and Fair Insurance Premiums - Time Ticking for Women to Buy Before Women Handed Extra Costs
2012-11-09
Legal & General unveiled the rather startling news that the new EU rules mean that from 21st December 2012, women are likely to pay more when taking out new life cover and critical illness insurance.
It materialised after a set of new rules and changes in law dictate that insurance providers will no longer be allowed to assess insurance premiums via gender. Having been the fairer sex when it came to insurance premiums, women now find themselves under a more critical gaze and no longer the safer investment and receivers of sounder, lower life insurance premiums.

Aspirin effective in preventing clots following joint replacement surgery
2012-11-08
(PHILADELPHIA) – If you've had joint replacement surgery, it's likely you've been given warfarin, a common blood thinner and clot-preventer, prior to surgery. While effective, research from the Rothman Institute at Jefferson has shown aspirin to be just as effective in preventing clots, specifically pulmonary emboli, life-threatening blood clots that can develop in the arteries of the lungs following joint replacement surgery. Their research was recognized as one of the best poster presentations at the recent American Association of Hip and Knee Surgeons (AAHKS) meeting ...
Gene find turns soldier beetle defence into biotech opportunity
2012-11-08
New antibiotic and anti-cancer chemicals may one day be synthesised using biotechnology, following CSIRO's discovery of the three genes that combine to provide soldier beetles with their potent predator defence system.
CSIRO researchers, and a colleague at Sweden's Karolinska Institute, published details of the gene identification breakthrough and potential applications recently in the international journal Nature Communications.
"For the first time, our team has been able to isolate and replicate the three genes that combine to make the potent fatty acid that soldier ...
Cedars-Sinai research: Preclinical muscular dystrophy data shows promise
2012-11-08
LOS ANGELES — Nov. 7, 2012 – Cedars-Sinai Heart Institute researchers have found that an experimental compound may help stem the debilitating effects of muscular dystrophy by restoring normal blood flow to muscles affected by the genetic disorder.
The researchers studied HCT 1026, a new type of molecule in which nitric oxide is chemically attached to a standard anti-inflammatory agent, in a preclinical model of muscular dystrophy. Results suggest HCT 1026 may be beneficial for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy, which begins in early childhood, and Becker muscular ...
Capturing carbon with clever trapdoors
2012-11-08
University of Melbourne Engineers have developed a novel method of collecting and storing carbon dioxide that will reduce the cost of separating and storing carbon dioxide.
The quest to capture carbon dioxide is crucial to a cleaner future and once captured, carbon dioxide can be compressed and safely stored.
It is also a useful source for chemical manufacture. However, current processes are inefficient and require several stages of refining and extraction before a pure form of carbon dioxide is produced.
One method of capturing carbon dioxide is through molecular ...
