This would actually make a great large-scale campaign ad.

Especially since, I don't know if you guys have ever seen those Nexium (I think) ads about IBS, and the different people walk across the stage with stomachs bared with writing on them.

Interesting because you're allowed to decide for yourself if you need medicine in order to ease your stomach pain or whatever but not smart enough/responsible enough to make this huge decision. Case of personal/public.

Is "edtition" a typo, or is Feministing trying to stick extra boobs wherever it can?

hahahaha! i must have tits on the brain. amazing. fixed.

What a charming photo!

And I recommend looking at the rest of her stuff, too--lots of witty photos there. Flickr has so many absolutely ingenious "regular" users on it who, if they had their ideas before the field got so crowded, would probably be profiled in photography textbooks today.

This photo certainly grabs my attention and I think she definitely makes her point!

The provision of flags to be used by the Organizing Committee was one of the early matters to be considered, as due to the numbers required it was not advisable to wait until all entries were received. Accordingly it was assumed that approximately 50 countries would be certain acceptors and orders for these were placed. The flags of the remainder were ordered on receipt of acceptance of invitation.

The Organizing Committee was responsible for national and Olympic flags necessary for villages and venues. It did not provide any flags for decorative or display purposes, these being arranged by civic and private authorities. The exception to this was the provision of two drapes on which were listed all the previous host cities. These drapes were hung on each side of the entrance to the official stand at the Main Stadium.

In order to ensure accuracy of design each invited nation was asked to send a sample of the flag it wished to be flown. Despite this precaution one flag was made incorrectly due to the difference between national flag and ensign not being clearly understood. Flags for one other country had to be re-made at the last moment owing to change in requirement.

The general flag plan required: at the Main Stadium one 12 feet flag and one 6 feet carrying standard for every accepting nation; at the Heidelberg Olympic Village, three 6 feet flags of every accepting nation, one to be flown on the flag court near the entrance gates, one outside the house of each Chef de Mission, and one in reserve; at Ballarat Olympic Village, one 6 feet flag at the entrance; at every other venue, one 6 feet flag of every nation competing at that venue, and three sets of victory flags of every nation.
