GUESS XFROM 1996 THROUGH 2001, X WAS ARRESTED NUMEROUS TIMES ON DRUG-RELATED

CHARGES INCLUDING COCAINE, HEROIN AND MARIJUANA AND WENT SEVERAL TIMES THROUGH DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAMS UNSUCCESSFULLY, EXPLAINING IN 1999 TO A JUDGE: "IT'S LIKE I'VE GOT A SHOTGUN IN MY MOUTH WITH MY FINGER ON THE TRIGGER, AND I LIKE THE TASTE OF THE GUN METAL." HE EXPLAINED HIS RELAPSES BY CLAIMING TO HAVE BEEN ADDICTED TO DRUGS SINCE THE AGE OF EIGHT, DUE TO THE FACT THAT HIS FATHER, ALSO AN ADDICT, HAD BEEN GIVING THEM TO HIM.

IN APRIL 1996, X WAS ARRESTED FOR POSSESSION OF HEROIN, COCAINE AND AN UNLOADED .357 MAGNUM HANDGUN WHILE HE WAS SPEEDING DOWN SUNSET BOULEVARD. A MONTH LATER, WHILE ON PAROLE, HE TRESPASSED INTO A NEIGHBOR'S HOME WHILE UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE AND FELL ASLEEP IN ONE OF THE BEDS. HE WAS SENTENCED TO THREE YEARS OF PROBATION AND REQUIRED TO UNDERGO COMPULSORY DRUG TESTING. IN 1997, HE MISSED ONE OF THE COURT-ORDERED DRUG TESTS AND HAD TO SPEND SIX MONTHS IN THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY JAIL.

WHICH COMPANY’S EXPLANATION FOR A REDESIGN OF THEIR LOGO?• WE DIDN’T WANT TO HAVE ANY STRAIGHT LINES IN THE LOGO.  STRAIGHT LINES

DON’T EXIST IN THE HUMAN FORM AND ARE EXTREMELY RARE IN NATURE, SO THE HUMAN TOUCH IN THE LOGO IS THAT ALL THE LINES AND FORMS ALL HAVE AT LEAST A SLIGHT CURVE.

• WE PREFERRED LETTERS THAT HAD THICKER AND THINNER STROKES - CONVEYING THE SUBJECTIVE AND EDITORIAL NATURE OF SOME OF WHAT WE DO.

• SERIFS WERE A BIG PART OF OUR OLD LOGO.  IT FELT WRONG TO GIVE THEM UP ALTOGETHER SO WE WENT FOR A SANS SERIF FONT WITH “SCALLOPS” ON THE ENDS OF THE LETTERS.

• OUR EXISTING LOGO FELT LIKE THE ICONIC X.  WE WANTED TO PRESERVE THAT AND DO SOMETHING PLAYFUL WITH THE OO’S.

• WE WANTED THERE TO BE A MATHEMATICAL CONSISTENCY TO THE LOGO, REALLY PULLING IT TOGETHER INTO ONE COHERENT MARK.

• WE TOYED WITH LOWERCASE AND SENTENCE CASE LETTERS.  BUT, IN THE END, WE FELT THE LOGO WAS MOST READABLE WHEN IT WAS ALL UPPERCASE, ESPECIALLY ON SMALL SCREENS.

IN EARLY 2013, THE MINISTRY OF ENVIRONMENT AND FORESTS ISSUED A CIRCULAR BANNING THE USE OF THIS CATEGORY OF “GOVERNMENT SERVANTS”. THE MINISTRY OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT IS TRYING TO GET IT IMPLEMENTED IN DELHI. WHO ARE THESE SERVANTS?
