What GAO Found
In summary, we identified over 200 organizations that market financial and estate planning services to help pension claimants with excess assets qualify for pension benefits. These organizations consist primarily of financial planners and attorneys who offer products such as annuities and trusts. All 19 organizations our investigative staff contacted said a claimant can qualify for pension benefits by transferring assets before applying, which is permitted under the program. Two organization representatives said they helped pension claimants with substantial assets, including millionaires, obtain VAs approval for benefits. Some products and services provided, such as deferred annuities, may not be suitable for the elderly because they may not have access to their funds within their expected lifetime without facing high withdrawal fees. Also, such asset transfers may result in ineligibility for Medicaid coverage for long-term care for a period of time. The majority of the 19 organizations contacted charged fees, ranging from a few hundred dollars for benefits counseling to $10,000 for establishment of a trust. In our report we asked Congress to consider establishing a look-back and penalty period for pension claimants who transfer assets prior to applying for pension benefits, similar to other federally supported means-tested programs, such as Medicaid. We also recommended that VA obtain timely information on asset transfers, strengthen income and asset verification processes, and provide clearer guidance to claims processors. VA concurred with our recommendations and agreed that a look back and penalty period for asset transfers was needed.
Why GAO Did This Study
This testinony discusses the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) pension program, which provides economic benefits to wartime veterans age 65 and older or who have disabilities that are unrelated to their military service, as well as to their surviving spouses and dependent children. To qualify for VA pension benefits, a claimant must have limited income and assets. Recently, concerns have been raised that some organizations are marketing financial products and other services to help individuals whose assets exceed the programs financial eligibility thresholds qualify for these benefits. These organizations may charge substantial fees for products and services that may not always be in claimants best long-term interests.
In our report released today on VAs pension program, we identified vulnerabilities in VAs procedures for assessing financial eligibility. We also found that there is no prohibition on claimants transferring assets prior to applying for benefits, and some claimants do so. Other means-tested programs, such as Medicaid, conduct a look-back review to determine if an individual has transferred assets for less than fair market value, and if so, may deny eligibility for benefits for a period of time. This control helps ensure that only those in financial need receive benefits.
This testimony is based on our report and focuses on what is known about organizations that are marketing financial products and services to veterans and survivors to enable them to qualify for VA pension benefits.

Linux Mint Debian Edition MATE/Cinnamon 201403
It is based on Debian GNU/Linux
Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu, which in turn is based on Debian. However, Ubuntu is a very user friendly Linux operating system adopted by millions of users worldwide. On the other hand, Debian is rougher and in some aspects not as user-friendly as the Ubuntu OS. Because of this, the main goal of the Linux Mint Debian Edition operating system is to make Debian more attractive, easy to access and useable.
It is targeted at low-end computers
The distribution shares all the quality features common to other Linux Mint editions, the same desktop, the same applications and the same functionality, but with a completely different base, targeted at low-end computers. It uses many upstream components, it is modern, elegant, and includes the Software Manager application, which gives users an easy choice when it comes to installing their favorite open source apps.
Comes in two editions, with MATE and Cinnamon desktops
Initially, Linux Mint Debian Edition was distributed with the KDE, Xfce, Fluxbox and LXDE window managers, but recent editions are based only on the Cinnamon and MATE desktop environments, forks of GNOME 3 & 2. LMDE provides users with a choice between 64-bit and 32-bit architectures. From a technical point of view, this distribution proves that the Linux Mint ecosystem can be easily ported to alternative package bases.
Can be used both at home and in offices
It includes the same powerful applications as official Linux Mint flavors, support for numerous hardware components, an amazing community, and many other attractive features. It is a Linux operating system that can be used both at home and in offices.

This… is a reflection going back almost exactly four years. I had been inspired to actually put down on paper, some feelings about recent events. A couple Thursdays prior, I witnessed some religious zealots with, what I thought were, some interesting tactics – at first. There was also a bombing in India – where my wife was. I mean, not only was she in the country (or sub-continent, as it were) but actually in the city – IN the shopping center/district where it happened. She had left less than 24 hours prior, but with a 12 1/2 hour time difference – I wasn't sure (until the next day). So what did I finally get down on paper?
Well, I had also interviewed Kristin Korb the night prior.
If you're not into jazz it wouldn't surprise me if ya didn't know who she is. I hope to change this for as many people as I can.
In a nutshell, in the jazz world, she's a bass player, vocalist, teacher, and an arranger. She has fun cooking, too. But now to step back a few paces. Some were introduced to her with the 1996 Telarc release – Introducing Kristin Korb With the Ray Brown Trio. I was. Seems she asked Ray for a bass lesson, he liked her vocal work, and it went from there. Introducing… is a fantastic release, containing not only some of the coolest versions of A Night in Tunisia, Take the A-Train, and Ain't Misbehavin', but without a doubt – THE most seductive, yet playful, Peel Me a Grape you can hope to ever hear. I don't care WHAT you think you've heard elsewhere.
But then when you see her perform live…
She was at Galli's in Rancho Cucamonga as a 3-piece. Llew Matthews played keys. He plays on one of Kristin's most recent releases, Why Can't You Behave? If you get the chance – see him ANYwhere you can.
Dean Koba was on drums. He was described as "not her regular drummer, but her regular sub". Ya'd think Kristin and he jam every hour/day. This is how in-sync they were. His playing is a real exploration of the instrument – SLIDING the sticks or brushes, or using the wire loop at the opposite end of the brush. All this instead of just whacking the skins.
But maybe this is why these three played together back then. EACH ONE OF THEM explores. I mean REALLY explores – rather than just trying to hit the notes they did the night before. They ALL really find (or invent) humor in the pieces. You can see this in their faces. When Llew would suggest a tune, Kristin was just as excited to hear about it as we were. You hear her say, "COOL!" and then a little heh-heh. They interacted, not only with each other, but with the audience as well. I couldn't begin to quote all the joking that went on – and I took notes!
So what will you hear if ya pick up one of Kristin's discs or see her live? Probably 75 – 90 percent standards – with some originals, and without a doubt, original arrangements. I challenge you, on a night with Kristin, to hear something you've heard before. She has a passion for taking a song, and seeing where it could go. You're Blasé almost put her to sleep once. This won't happen when you hear HER play/sing it. With the arranging and changing – EVERY song is fresh.
Kristin, by the way, has very recently gotten married… and moved to Holland. Clearly, you WON'T be able to go see her next Saturday, or the Saturday after. But… BUT… she DOES still come back to the area to perform. Some private concerts – some open to the public.
So this - is what became my first blog – a frickin' book. THIS is what made me start taking notes on some of the many entertainment opportunities we have out here. Some will point out that maybe I shoulda written about my wife and the bombings in India as a first blog, but my thoughts were that with the time difference, she wouldn't know about it for another 12 ½ hours anyway.

Wedding Highlights//Courtney+Jason//Forever is Better with You
http://imtylerhays.com Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, TN - March 23, 2013 I had the privilege of filming the wedding of my cousin Courtney and her husband Jason. It was a wonderful day with family and friends. Courtney and Jason were wonderful to work with, and their relaxed personalities helped the day go smoothly. The only stressful part was we got stuck in terrible traffic heading towards the ceremony. We arrived at the venue with less than 10 min until the ceremony was scheduled to start! A 3 camera setup with audio + steadicam was all setup in under this time (that's def a record for me). It was interesting to be filming the wedding as well as being a guest. This was the first time any of my family saw me doing video work. Thanks to Courtney and Jason for entrusting me to document their big day!

Skip to Content
Siemens offers a wide range of solutions and services in France, where its Energy, Healthcare, Industry, and Infrastructure & Cities Sectors occupy leading positions. In fiscal 2013, Siemens in France scored major successes in all four Sectors:
The Energy Sector won and completed a number of major projects. As a case in point, the Fossil Power Generation Division officially opened the combined natural gas power plant in Toul-Croix de Metz (Lorraine Region), which will operate for the electricity provider POWEO. This was a turnkey project delivered and installed by Siemens, with a capacity of 422 MW. The Inelfe project, led by the Power Transmission Division and involving construction of the world's highest capacity power converter stations, is underway. It will use the latest high-voltage direct-current (HVDC) PLUS technology in the interconnection between France and Spain. Seven transformers have been delivered so far. At the same time, the Wind Power Division received an order for the supply, installation, and commissioning of a total of 24 direct-drive wind turbines for four French wind projects. Customers are EDF Energies Nouvelles, leader in the production of renewable energy, and Diamond Generating Europe Limited, an independent power producer. Moreover, the Oil & Gas Division is working on two steam turbines (SST 300) for the new biomass plants located in Vielle-Saint-Girons (Aquitaine) and Estrées-Mont (Picardy), and operated by the energy companies Cofely and CNIM.
The Imaging & Therapy Systems Division maintained its leadership in molecular imaging and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with more than 50 units sold to hospitals and private practices, and bolstered its position as preferred partner to the research community. An illustration of this was the signing of a contract for a 7 Tesla MRI scanner with the Centre d'Exploration Métabolique par Résonance Magnétique (CEMEREM) in Marseille. The Division also took a leading role in interventional imaging, with the success of its ARTIS Zee & Zeego solutions and its Somatom Definition scanner, characterized by lowdosage, precision, ergonomics, and patient safety.
The Clinical Products Division consolidated its lead in digital radiology and regained market share in mammography with its low-dose, state-of-the-art breast screening unit, the Mamomat Inspiration Prime. In the ultrasound field, the first ever wireless ultrasound scanner was introduced onto the French market after gaining Conformité Européenne/European compliance (CE) certification. A broader product portfolio also enabled the Division to gain market share in key ultrasound applications, such as cardiology.
The Diagnostics Division commissioned the first three Aptio™ automation systems ever installed in France. Aptio™ automation forms the basis of the new generation in automation systems for lab optimization, with Siemens' signature automation workflow expertise. The Division also renewed its contract with one of its key customers, the Geslab purchasing group, for the next three years.
The Healthcare Sector in France (comprising the three Divisions above) continued its focus on a common customer relationship management methodology, always placing its customers at the center of decisions and approaches.
The Industry Sector in France performed well again in 2013. "Industry 4.0" is the path into the future for industrial companies. The integration of IT systems used for virtual planning and real production provides significant productivity leverage for industrial enterprises in global competition. This is why Siemens is placing particular emphasis on extending its innovation lead in IT and software for industry. In France, Siemens has installed its design and modeling software solutions in a major automobile manufacturer's factory. Thanks to innovative software products, systems can now be designed and tested "virtually." In this "digital factory," no prototypes are needed, shortening customers' manufacturing processes by three months.
The Industry Automation Division held a huge customer event in Paris, in the famous hemispherical cinema, La Géode, to launch its integrated automation system, the SIMATIC S7-1500. The event was designed to introduce the product to major French industrial companies, as well as to the national and trade press. More than 480 customers attended.
The Drive Technologies Division is steadily becoming the standard for machine tools manufacturing in the aerospace sector. After several years of development, Siemens' original equipment manufacturer (OEM) is now becoming a market leader in milling very thin metal plates (for example, for aircraft wings) for the aerospace industry, which previously used chemical milling. This new green technology is faster, cheaper, and produces no chemical waste. Siemens was chosen to supply one of the largest French distributors with the latest easy-to-use V20 standard drive. The Division also won a contract to replace the medium-voltage motor of a large pumping station with a variable speed motor (H compact-plus). Gradual start-up, flow variation, and 30 percent energy savings are the main customer advantages of the solution.
The Customer Services Division developed a new service to manage the energy costs of industrial facilities more efficiently. The Energy Efficiency Service Center enables customers to achieve energy savings of between ten and 50 percent by optimizing their industrial energy management. In 2013, the Division delivered a turnkey project in a European carbon fiber company for aeronautical applications and also an obsolescence management solution for a major nuclear company for stocking automation spare parts in order to guarantee continuity of production over the coming years.
Siemens and EDF, France's top energy producer and supplier, have signed a strategic partnership to promote and implement energy efficiency solutions. Siemens' industrial and agricultural customers wishing to set up electronic variable speed systems in asynchronous motors and create an ISO 50001-compliant energy management system, for example, will benefit from personalized guidance and EDF advice on how to save energy using these products and solutions.
In 2013, the Rail Systems Division in France signed two large contracts. The first was for the third extension (two additional stations) of the Véhicule Automatique Léger/automatic light vehicle (Val) automatic metro line in Turin (Italy). The second – for approximately EUR 178 million – was for the supply of railway systems and project management services for the first Cityval automatic metro line in Rennes in the west of France. The Division also delivered 18 additional Val trains for the metro network in Toulouse in the south of France. The Mobility and Logistics Division received an order to equip the extension (four new stations) of metro Line 1 in Algiers (Algeria) with a signaling system. The order includes the Trainguard MT CBTC automatic train control system, the Airlink radio transmission system, the Scada operating control center, and the Digiloc train location system. As the Center of Competence for fully automated metro systems, the Mobility and Logistics Division will provide the Trainguard MT CBTC automatic train control system for upgrading the 47 kilometer-long line from the Chinese border to the central business district of Hong Kong Island (China). In Paris, Line 1 is now operating in fully automated mode, with great benefits for the Parisian operator RATP in terms of commercial operating speed, number of trains needed, frequency, and flexibility of operation. Line 1 and Line 14 – also automated by Siemens – are now the most reliable lines on the Parisian rail network. This Division has also equipped 38 buses in Rouen in the west of France with the Optiboard solution (innovative optical guidance system for buses and trolleybuses).
The Building Technologies Division won several projects in hospitals, whenever possible selling a comprehensive solution for the entire hospital – rather than just fire security, safety, or comfort solutions individually. It won two large projects, one for Kuhn in eastern France for building security, and the other at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris for energy efficiency in the Marriott Hotel. The Division also celebrated the 50th anniversary of its fire safety business in France.
With a workforce of around 6,980, seven production sites, and numerous partnerships with universities, higher education institutions, and competitive clusters (geographic concentrations of interconnected companies, specialized suppliers, service providers, and associated institutions working in a particular field), Siemens plays an active role in economic development in France and abroad. Siemens France operates nine Research and Development (R&D) centers, seven of which are Centers of Competence located throughout the world. They cover a wide range of high-tech segments such as automatic transportation systems, metallurgy, power transmission and distribution, software design and production, and fire detection. Siemens France generates more than one third of its revenue from exports.

Where Will This Baby Sleep?
One night, my husband, Heath, and I talked about how the pace of life with two kids would be easier than three. We noted how cramped our bed becomes with two extra little people in it on Sunday mornings. Where would a third go?
I had just read a New York Times article about preserving the environment by having no more kids than would outnumber the parents in order to maintain, instead of increase, the carbon footprint. I thought it was a very solid argument. It helped to justify our satisfaction with two kids. Read the rest of this entry →

Blair retires as Middle East Peace Envoy; 'my work is done'
There was a champagne reception for Tony Blair yesterday as he left his job as Middle East Peace envoy surrounded by bouquets and cards congratulating him on a job well done.
'It just shows that if you set your mind to something it can be achieved. I'm not pretending that it wasn't difficult at times, that there weren't huge obstacles to be overcome, but I think we can look back at where Israel/Palestine was when I started on this job eighteen months ago and agree that the peace situation is very different now.'

Denmark has bucked the trend of other recently-regulated markets in Europe in that it has offered licensed operators a viable regulatory model in which to work. As in other markets, many of the first wave licensees have closed their Danish offerings and those with a 'historical' footprint now dominate. Stephen Carter assesses those factors and the marketing trends in Denmark.
There is no doubt the first year of regulated igaming in New Jersey has not produced the returns the industry hoped for and while newly-regulated markets have a tendency to increase expectations over-optimistically, the key is whether the Garden State is on the right tracks long term.

What can you expect from the best hotels in Cyprus?
Having been welcoming visitors to Limassol for many years, of course we'll be quick to tell you that Cyprus holidays are the best; hotels in Cyprus such as the uber-chic Londa Beach Hotel offer many incentives for the discerning traveller. With so many things to do in Cyprus, luxury hotels are merely one aspect of your stay – but when you start to delve a little deeper, you'll see that the place you choose as your base for your holiday accounts for a large part of your overall enjoyment.
One of the biggest things that draw holidaymakers to our shores year after year is the incredible Mediterranean sun that beats down on the island day after day through every season. However, while you may be joining us to top up your tan and soak up the healing effects of its rays, there are many things we can offer aside from the beautiful weather.
Here in Cyprus, luxury hotels offer some sensational spa treatments
Being multiple award-winners isn't the only thing that makes us one of the best hotels in Cyprus; our luxury spa is all the motivation you need to head out from your sumptuous room or sea view suite, the morning after a long evening of socialising with some fresh, fruity cocktails at the bar. If you think the sun has healing properties then just wait till you try an all over massage or a rejuvenating facial administered by one of our qualified and friendly therapists. Our staff are trained to get to the very heart of what will bring you the greatest benefits, so they can recommend a fantastic program of treatments that will leave you feeling better than new.
It's not just the staff in the spa that will lavish you with amazing service either – we have cherry picked the very best that the Cypriot service industry has to offer, and every member of our staff will be at your disposal should you need anything extra to make your stay ultra special. In fact several of our loyal staff have been a part of the 'Londa Experience' for many years and enjoy nothing more than welcoming back the familiar faces of our many repeat guests as well as newcomers to our hotel.
The best hotels offer the best chefs
Another treat that's in store for you when you visit our hotel is some true gourmet dining – some of the very best in Cyprus! Luxury hotels are renowned for their top quality chefs and the incredible dishes that they serve up to their valued diners and having newly appointed Italian executive chef, Giovanni Caracciolo on board, means ours is no exception. After a day of exploring the Troodos Mountains, enjoying some watersports activities, visiting Limassol town, or exploring any one of the incredible archaeological wonders in the local area, what could be better than a revitalising shower in your en-suite facilities followed by a tantalising and delectable meal in our 5 star Caprice restaurant?
We could talk at even greater length about all of the wonders that you can experience here at the Londa Beach Hotel, one of the very best hotels in Cyprus – but we don't want to spoil the surprise, so why not come and see for yourself?!

A traffic crossing light at a zebra crossing in Guangzhou City lasts only two seconds, leaving pedestrians with no choice but to run across the road while the light is red.
Located at an intersection in Luogang District of the city, the traffic light turns red about two seconds after it turns green.
"People just run across. It's useless to look at the light," said a pedestrian.
Statistics shows that a man can walk no more than three meters in two seconds at a normal speed. It takes about 25 seconds for a man to walk across a 30-meter-wide street.
Chinese authorities have been running a nationwide campaign to discourage pedestrians from running red lights since early this year.
The campaign targets "Chinese-style street crossing," in which pedestrians cross the road once a large enough group forms, regardless of what color the traffic light is. Violators often say that they would've waited for a green light, but it either take too long to become green or the duration of the green light isn't long enough to allow them to cross legally.
Under the tightened rules, pedestrians will be fined if police catch them crossing the street during a red light or jay-walking, with the amount varying in different cities.
Beijing started charging fines for jaywalkers on Monday.

I am glad we have passed the debt ceiling compromise so we can stop playing chicken with the American economy. Now we can focus on creating jobs and growing the economy.
This agreement is not the one I would have written. While Social Security and Medicare are protected for now, nothing has been asked of Big Oil or millionaires and billionaires. The super congressional committee created in this bill to find more savings should develop a balanced approach that includes revenue raisers as well as responsible spending cuts.
After months of debate that brought our economy to the brink, I reluctantly supported this compromise because it is the only bill that could make it through both chambers and avoid the financial chaos of default.

From Israel, Former WPIX Entertainment Anchor Emily Frances Now Runs HowtoMomTV
A lot can happen in a few years. Back in 2010, Emily Frances was the morning news entertainment anchor at WPIX and trying to get pregnant through In Vitro Fertility treatments. Today, she is the mother of two young children and a Tel Aviv-based Internet entrepreneur.
"My husband and I are loving Israel," Frances tells FishbowlNY after moving there from New York in September. "It is the best place to raise children. Israel is a kid-centric country where money is truly invested into playgrounds, kids activities and schools."
"We love the fact that family is so important here," she continues. "People have careers but the careers don't define them. After [my four-day-a-week, intensive] Hebrew classes, I ride my bike to a place called Namal. It's the old Tel Aviv port and has been gentrified like the Meatpacking District. I sit outside at a cafe and write my blogs, optimize my videos and do social media for HowtoMomTV."

About Us
Press Room
Page Navigation
Developed by the Interfaith Youth Core. Used by permission.
This resource provides a brief description of each of the five parts of a story. Use the cheat sheet to help translate the five parts into your own words, and explain them to participants in the way that is most helpful.
1. History and Details
The History and Details of a story are what helps the listener "hook in" to a story, and really understand it. History is sometimes necessary to understand why the events of a story matter—for instance, it may be important for listeners to know that you grew up in a small town with a tight knit congregation to understand why you were so surprised the first time you met a non-UU, or moved to an urban area. Details are what "paints a picture" for your listener (the purple walls, rough voice, etc.) and helps them imagine what your experience was like and what in their experience is similar to yours.
2. Conflict or Tension
The conflict or tension of a story is what makes the story interesting—it is the question you ask at the beginning of the story to keep listeners invested until the end. For instance, in classic stories the conflict is often, "Will they ever be together? Are they going to get into a fight?" etc. The trick is, you don't need to have actually had a very dramatic moment to create this drama if your story needs it. For example, if you want to share a story about how your completely wonderful, no fighting-for-a-moment relationship with a Hindu made you want to pursue interfaith work, you can inject potential tension by saying "I wasn't sure how we were going to get along" or "We were so different in these ways... " to keep people guessing even though your story ultimately has a happy ending.
3. Aha! Moment
The Aha! Moment is the moment in your story when you realize why your story is important. It connects the questions of your conflict to the answers of your resolution. The Aha! Moment does not have to happen right after the main events of the story—for instance, in Eboo Patel's "This I Believe" story, the conflict was the anti-Semitic thugs and what Eboo would do about it, and he didn't have his Aha! Moment until years later when his friend shared how hurtful Eboo's inaction had been.
4. Resolution
The resolution is the close to the main action of your story. It is what might be called the "moral" in a fairy tale. It describes how the conflict or tension was concluded. If your story is something you are still struggling with, your resolution does not have to be clean and can even be another question—you just have to make it clear that there was some resolution. For instance, if you had an experience that showed you didn't know what you wanted to do with your life and you're still figuring it out, you can say, "So, I am now seriously asking myself the questions of a life—what will I do in my future, and how can I live out my values?"
5. Action
The Action is what takes a literary story and makes it a persuasive or invitational story. It describes how your behavior has changed now that you have experienced your story, and invites your listener to similarly change their behavior in response. In this context, common actions might be "So I joined this youth group at my congregation" or "So I planned an interfaith service activity."

The Essentials
The building blocks for a more successful and stylish season
By The Fashion Editors
It's About Time: The Return of the Tudor
In the 1940s Rolex's Hans Wilsdorf introduced a new watch company called Tudor as a way to offer timepieces of a quality similar to a Rolex's but at more modest prices. The brand saw immediate success, and as dive watches emerged and gained popularity, Tudor's sportier designs quickly found favor with militaries across the world: Tudor watches were worn by the British, American, and French navies through the early 1980s.
But then, ten years ago, Rolex decided to concentrate on its main line and pulled the brand from the U.S. market. Men of style and taste were distraught. And vocal. And so this year, Rolex has reintroduced the Tudor line with a whole new series, including this, the Tudor Heritage Black Bay, which was inspired by a 1954 Tudor model provided to Britain's Royal Navy on a scientific expedition to Greenland. Feel free to wear it exploring. Or just to the supermarket.

Berlin Leuchtet
Berlin Leuchtet – An audio-visual illumination
Each October at nightfall, Berlin turns into a spectacle of light. The festival association "Berlin Leuchtet" appointed ACNE to illuminate one of the most iconic buildings in the heart of Berlin: The Concert Hall on the Gendarmenmarkt Square.
The idea was to visualise the music of the concert hall by creating a non-traditional experience of classical music. Inspired by the simplicity and the ideal proportions of the neoclassical style, we composed an audio-visual 3D projection consisting of minimal and graphical elements, enhancing the geometries of the facades.
Based on the 3D scan of the architecture we created three different visualisations using MIDI technology and VVVV software. We projected the animations with a combined 130.000 lumens in real time onto the facades of the Concert Hall and the flanking cathedrals.
3 Classical Music Visualisations
3 Illuminated Buildings
30 Minutes of Entertainment
2 Million Festival Visitors
A Multitude of Pictures and Films across Social Media
Music: "Weird Little Piano Piece" by Steven o'Brian, "Skala" by Dimitris Palaiogiannis, "Harp" by Maistri
The Economist
The Economist – MANDELA'S WALK
Together with The Economist and AMV.BBDO London we created an interactive film as a tribute to the late Nelson Mandela. It shows people walking into an open field, each carrying an object and placing it on the ground. The seemingly random objects include an old mattress, clothing and flowers, as well as a battered copy of the magazine. As the camera pans out the objects form a large image of the outlines of Mandela's face.
Viewers can click on the individual objects to reveal content from a selection of articles taken from The Economist's archives, each relevant to a particular time in Mandela's life. The film is narrated by the British poet Benjamin Zephaniah.
On the H&Ms 2013 design collaboration, users were able to browse through the universe of Isabel Marant in a blog-like patchwork of content such as sound-snippets, films and images. A users favorite content was chosen and selected to create a unique and personalized section on the site that could be shared among friends.
The H&M Spring Fashion campaign invites the user to the home of Miranda Kerr.
Each campaign image is displayed together with its related garments. Hovering the garments, triggers a thumbnail film that displays a detail close-up of the garment, almost as MIranda herself films it.
The site also contains a hidden bonus-chapter. This is activated by clicking on the lock and writing the correct password. Once activated, a mini-game (memory with a twist) is presented letting the user to have a chance of winning amazing prizes.
H&M – Summer 2014
Together with H&M we created The Ultimate Summer Campaign.
An interactive music video featuring the A – list top model Gisele Bündchen performing the classic song "Heart of glass" produced by Bob Sinclair.
The campaign was shot in a range of beautiful locations in Costa Rica to capture the amazing summer moments.
The experience on hm.com is a music video with an interactive grid containing campaign, collection and mood films, all synced and updated as the video progresses. We also created collection films where users could explore the summer collection by self-controlling the speed of the clips. The site has a dynamic sound that works as an extension and makes the whole experience richer when changing views in the grid. The campaign images were perfectly accompanied by mood images and films to fully enhance their strong visual impact.
Users can also experience the site on tablet and mobile.
Tele2 – CHEAP CALLS ARE HARD TO RESIST
When SMFB, the Norwegian offspring of Forsman & Bodenfors, approached us with this idea we were thrilled – honestly. The project seemed to include everything we like: a great idea, Norwegians and really interesting technical challenges. Together with the agency and ACNE Film we came up with the idea of a film based experience that was to involve using the visitor's cell phone – all based around the overall concept that "Cheap Calls Are Hard to Resist". In short, the website lures the visitor into giving out his/hers cell number, something that will soon turn out to be a BIG mistake. Only seconds later a character that you most certainly don't want to have your number shows up and gives you a call. For real! Your phone rings and the person on screen speaks to you insinuating something most inappropriate…
Unfortunately you'll only be able to try this experience out for your self if you've got a working Norwegian cell but if you do, go!
Visit Denmark
Visit Denmark – Find the Dane
Visit Denmark is a partly government funded organization that promotes Denmark as a travel destination in general. This particular campaign for Visit Denmark in Norway simply wants to tell the story of how awesome it is to be Norwegian – in Denmark. So, based on the fact that nobody REALLY understands Danish, we produced a website together with ACNE Film where the visitor is invited to a simple, yet thrilling game of "Find the Dane". Out of five characters, each representing a certain aspect of Danish culture, only one is truly from Denmark. Guess who!
GE – Performance Machines
To celebrate General Electrics' presence at the 2012 Super Bowl, BBDO New York asked ACNE Production to produce, direct and develop Performance Machines, a video game/interactive film experience pitting famous american footballers against GE appliances and machinery.
Morton Salt
Morton Salt – Best in Snow
Winter is not a good time to be man's best friend because it means yummy, but not digestible, sodium chloride on the streets and even worse, silly… silly… outfits. We helped DDB Chicago fluff up Morton's pet-friendly fan base and created a contest where people submitted pictures of their socially awkward dogs, in their most shameful outfits for us to look at, laugh at, and then share for our friends to look at, laugh at, and then share with their friends… The circle of humiliation was completed.
Our solution was used Facebook's SDK for authentication and submitting videos. The site was hosted as a Facebook Tab application on desktop computers and would seamlessly redirect users to a fully functional microsite if they visited the site on a platform that doesn't support Facebook Tab applications, such as tablet and mobile.
Doritos – Dip Desperado
Dip Desperado is an addictive score-driven game made for Facebook, iPhone & Android. Let the chip-flick master "Esteban" be your mentor while you flick the chip through four levels of among crazy obstacles, triggers and enemies such as, evil mosquitos, porcelain-headed-spiders and chewing piranhas.
Do not forget to dip it!
Swedish Armed For...
Swedish Armed Forces – Officer
In response to the ever going changes in the world the Swedish Army is in need of more officers with not only muscles, but brains. As a key component in the recruitment campaign "Do you have what it takes", we developed a website that tests the visitor's ability to concentrate, handle multiple tasks simultaneously and solve problems when circumstances are suddenly and radically changed.
adidas Y-3
adidas Y-3 – Interactive Live Stream
Acne has created a cutting edge Interactive-Live-Stream-Experience for adidas Y-3, revealed at NY Fashion Week marking the 10th anniversary of adidas' unique partnership with Yohji Yamamoto. Athletes, celebrities, and fashion mavens gathered at St John's Center, transformed by Dev Harlan's 3D projections. To celebrate the event, Acne expanded this short moment in time into an engaging Interactive Live Stream Experience. By streaming the show with four different views onto the runway, the online audience could magnify one view without losing perspective of the show as a whole, and pin each look to Pinterest.

I have eaten at Wong's for 6 years now and watched it as it got progressively worse. The last straw was last Saturday night. On Friday I had ordered Chicken Fried Rice to take out. The rice looked as if it has been recooked. No vegetables, little bamboo shoots.
Posted by man1111 on 09/27/2013
The rice was a bit crunchy, there was more fat then meat and the meat wasn't cooked all the way.

No atmosphere....or campy at best - 1950's kitschy decor..but food is as good as it always was. And I have been here for 25 years.
Posted by Anonymous on 03/09/2012
I usually order from Wong's. And have ordered from them about once a month for years. The food the last couple of times hasn't been so good, so my ordering has greatly decreased to about once every three months. I decided I would give them another shot today until I placed an order over the phone and was shocked to find out that usual order of about twenty dollars was going to cost thirty four dollars. Crazy right, so I began questioning the woman taking my order and it turns out putting the sauces on the side and not having onion was costing me an extra three to four dollars per order! I canceled my order and told her that was robbery and I would never again order from them!

So this place might not be for spoiled people who can't wait. It's located in North Miami, a not very posh area to begin with, but it's GREAT food, cheap and fast service! Maybe if they don't pick up the phone it's because they're hello, busy! I walked in ordered with 5 people ahead of me and my order was ready in 15 minutes. So if you're looking for fast, good & cheap this is the place. If not. go somewhere else and stop complaining.
Posted by Joe R. on 02/08/2012
What a shame that this place has degraded to what it is now. I hadn't been there in years but recently went there for lunch. No one answered the phone for take-out despite 20 minutes of trying to call on my way there, so I had to order at the counter. There was one couple ahead of me when I got there also ordering. I ordered a Moo-goo Gai pan lunch special and a Chicken Lo-mein lunch special. That's it. It took 55 minutes to get the food. There was no one eating there and no one called so I don't know what the delay was and I don't care. The waitress ate lunch in the back. I could hear her 35 feet away slurping soup and chewing like a cow. Add the loud Y-100 rappish radio from the speakers and it was a truly miserable experience. The food was average at best. Never again will I go there.

Great Restaurant, food is delicious and the service is the best in town.

It's a different system with a different design philosophy.
Also, a character concept is a character concept. Just take the essence of the character and rebuild it using the tools that the new system gives you. Somethings won't work quite so well, and some things will work better.
Learn the new system and make it work for you!

I am Miriam Gaudin, and I am a student at University of Louisiana at Lafayette. I am a Child and Family Studies Major and have a minor concentration in Psychology. I have been inspired to write from first and foremost my parents. I also have been inspired by my English Professors.
I grew up in South Louisiana and I love my school, family and especially my friends. Without my friends I wouldn't have the inspiration to write and wouldn't have the best support system.
I set my books an affordable price so that anyone is able to purchase my books and is able to learn something. It is my life's passion that if I could just help one person's life everything that I have been through will be worth it. I value everything that I write, but I want people to be able to afford the books without breaking their pocket book!
