Step into Extreme Group’s seedy underworld of ‘Black Sunshine’ trafficking
I’ve never been a big coffee drinker. I don’t think I’ve brewed a pot at home once so far this year, and between Starbuck’s, Tim Horton’s and the office coffeemaker, I think I’ve had fewer than a dozen cups of java in 2010. The rest of the ihaveanidea team, well they’re a different story. Rafik loves his brew, and the only thing that keeps Ignacio from accidentally burning the office down by leaving the espresso machine on is him going back to the machine for another espresso.
Award Show Bedlam! ANDYs, Cannes Lions, Clios, Tomorrow Awards
The ANDY Awards wrapped up their all-star judging down in N’awlins last week (hey ANDYs, where’s the judges diaries love this year?), and have released their 2010 shortlist. Lots of fantastic work to be found on it, which you can see for yourself right here. The final winners will be notified this Friday, March 5th, and if they can keep the victors from bragging to their friends about their wins, the list will be made public on April 7th at The ANDY Awards Show & Party at The Times Center in New York City.
