Late last year the Gibraltar Mental Welfare Society attempted to gather a host of information on some of the more pressing and relevant issues relating to mental health in Gibraltar. Following their period of data collection through the means of face-to-face interview, comments passed on at a public meeting and submissions in writing by different individuals, the group has released a summary of the issues that ‘need to be addressed’.
A new and updated website for the Gibraltar Fire and Rescue Service marks their 150th Anniversary. Although they have had a web presence since 1998, the new 2015 site is based on the WordPress Version 4.1 open source platform.
I love pictures. I love them so much I make them, look at them, go crazy over them and can’t get enough of sharing them with people. It’s probably the oldest form of communication if you consider most people didn’t really know how to read until fairly recently. Pictures make everything easier; in fact, there are people who refuse to read books if there are no pictures. And that makes total sense to me. I mean, I read books without pictures and I sometimes even read them more than once! In a book I recently re-re-re-read, full of life tips there was one that, as a “picture-maker”, stuck with me. It was something along the lines of “pick things you like looking at and look at them”. We all work with visuals, we choose colours we like and make them our favourites, choose things and people that just look good and stop talking when the person on the other side of the table is yawning. Visual cues are a better communicator than anything. Even typographers, whose obsession is lettering, work with the way the lettering looks to convey the message.
