“Turns out, creating a logo that represents a city with nearly 350 years of history is difficult,” said Brendan Quinn of Philadelphia-based branding agency 160over90 . “There are cliches to avoid (I’m looking at you, cheesesteaks, Rocky, and Liberty Bell), and just as many fascinating stories that are just too obscure to a general audience.

World Cancer Day is marked on February 4 to raise awareness of cancer and to encourage its prevention, detection, and treatment.  As a way to acknowledge the day and to find out more about how to help yourself or others, take a look at what Suzanne Somer’s has to say about her cancer journey and the alternative therapies that she’s investigated. Suzanne Somers’ 19 th book was written as a result of being misdiagnosed with full body cancer in November 2008.  Suzanne says that her doctor told her to prepare herself and her family for the end.  See Suzanne Somers discuss Knockout (via Spruce TV) It makes me wonder, if something like that can happen to someone with Suzanne’s resources, what else is happening that we never hear about. “Knockout” is a series of interviews with patients who’ve received alternative medical treatments and the doctors or medical practitioners who prescribe these different types of treatments.  Dr.
