Stentor
In Greek mythology, Stentor (Greek: Στέντωρ; gen.: Στέντορος) was a herald of the Greek forces during the Trojan War. Although he is mentioned only briefly in Homer's Iliad, in which Hera takes Stentor's character to encourage the Greeks to fight, his name has been living in the term "stentorian" voice, meaning loud-voiced, for which he was famous: Homer said his "voice was as powerful as fifty voices of other men". Elsewhere, he is said to have died after his defeat by Hermes in a shouting contest.
Other Examples of Stentor
Aristotle uses the concept of a Stentor in his Politics Book 7, Chapter IV saying, "For who can be the general of such a vast multitude, or who the herald, unless he have the voice of a Stentor?"

VEB Typoart
VEB Typoart was the only type foundry of East Germany. It was a state-owned enterprise ("Volkseigener Betrieb") located in Dresden. The foundry's most influential art directors were Herbert Thannhäuser and Albert Kapr.
History
VEB Typoart was created by the government of the German Democratic Republic in 1948 through a merger of several nationalised type foundries, including Schelter & Giesecke (1945) and Ludwig Wagner AG (1960). It was subordinated to Zentrag, a state enterprise coordinating all GDR printing activity. Typoart's principal mission was to create typefaces for Eastern Germany and other Eastern Bloc countries. It was frequently ordered to plagiarise Western typefaces that Zentrag could not afford to license.
In the course of German reunification, Typoart was privatised as Typoart GmbH in 1989 and went bankrupt in 1995. The copyright status of its typefaces remained uncertain, and some of them have been reissued in digital form by other type foundries.

by: Teenage FanclubSaw you there with long blonde hair
Eyes of blue, oh baby, I love you.
When you're walking (I love your walk)
When you're talking (I love your talk)
Look so cute behind your kick
I've heard some songs but baby you're a hit.
When you're rocking (I love your rock)
When you're ticking (I'm your tock)
But then again you're a just a thought
You think I'm lying but I'm not.
I love your touch, I love your style.
Hit the snag you know it makes me smile.
When you're walking (I love your walk)
When you're talking (I love your talk)
I love you but you can't see;
I love you but baby do you agree
When you're rocking (I love your rock)
When you're ticking (I'm your tock)
Then again you're a just a thought
You think I'm lying but I'm not.
(I love your walk)
(I love your talk)
(I love your walk)
(I love your talk)
Then again you're a just a thought
