[gallery] Chalk art

Posted on May 13, 2014January 29, 2020 By admin

At the Columbus College of Art and Design, two rogue college students are creating quite a stir… but not by any normal means. They aren’t cheating or stealing, they are causing a creative riot. The anonymous duo, who go by the name Dangerdust, sneak into a classroom each week and create a masterpiece out of nothing but chalk. The pair are both seniors in Advertising & Graphic Design, and they are probably busy with a larger than life course-load, but they still remain passionate about their weekly chalk art. These two create some of the most beautiful (and inspiring) art you’ll ever see.

Food labeling badness!

As I mentioned previously, I bought pate at Aligro last weekend, and it turns out that it had a nasty surprise: unlisted pistachios. I brought it to work to give it to a coworker, and he confirmed our suspicions. I’ve phoned and emailed Aligro, and they said that they’d look into the matter. I’ll give them a few days before I go all scorched-earth on them.

Update: I got this reply:

On behalf of our supplier, please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. The ingredient list is actually not accurate enough. However, after having contacted our supplier, he assures us that there are no nuts in the composition of the product and you can consume it without fear for your health. There are however some pistachios in the composition of this very traditional recipe, appreciated by the customers. Following your message, this label will be corrected as soon as possible.

So, pistachios aren’t nuts. Except that they are. Idiots.
