Remember that Baby Talk cover with the breast? 3

Baby Talk coverRemember the magazine that dared to show a nursing baby on its cover? It got a bunch of prudish people up in arms when it came out in July of 2006. Well, the cover was a finalist for Best Service Cover of 2007 by the American Society of Magazine Editors. It would not have been given any award consideration at all if it hadn't been made such a controversy.

Global ID Card Contest 0

Alas, the contest is over, but it looks like it would have been cool to enter. The winners have been announced and can be seen here. While I understand and enjoy the winner (very Tufte-like) my personal favorite was the second honorable mention (ID Magazine's site is really crappy, so I have posted the entry below). I like whimsy.

Update: The winner, Bryan Boyer, has an interesting web site. Here are his notes on the contest. The second honorable mention, Ashleigh Caffey, doesn't have a web site. Here's her entry:
