Food drive underway
The students at Sterling Education, formally known as Eagle Crest Academy, have been collecting food for the local Gothenburg Food Bank. Our school is in competition with schools all across our region to collect the most food poundage per student. Locally, our 12 students have been working very hard.
We encourage all community members to donate! Students are willing to pick up food and we have set up a drop-off location at the Gothenburg State Bank. Food can also be brought to the school (on Avenue A). The students have came up with prizes to be won by the community member that donates the most for the cause.
Our food drive will continue through Friday, May 9. On that day, student volunteers will weigh, box up and deliver the donated items to the Gothenburg Food Pantry. They will also help sort and organized the food to be put away. The more people who donate the better!

In Pacific, Growing Fear of Paradise Engulfed
By NICHOLAS D. KRISTOF
Published: March 2, 1997
TARAWA, Kiribati— One sunny day in January, as Teunaia Abeta stood by and watched horror-struck, a high tide came rolling in from the turquoise lagoon and did not stop.
There was no typhoon, no rain, no wind, just an eerie rising tide that lapped higher and higher, swallowing up Mr. Abeta's thatched-roof home and scores of others in this Pacific island nation.
''This had never happened before,'' said Mr. Abeta, 73, who wore only his colorful lava-lava, a skirtlike garment, as he sat on the raised platform of his home fingering a home-rolled cigarette. ''It was never like this when I was a boy.''
That tidal surge was followed by another one in February. The flooding has helped focus minds here on warnings that global warming could cause the seas to rise enough in the next century or so to obliterate island nations like this one scattered in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.
''The only resource we have is water,'' said Phillip Muller, Foreign Minister of the Marshall Islands, another country that could easily be drowned by rising seas. ''Our livelihood is the sea. Now all of a sudden, it's not a friend. It's threatening our existence.''
Officials of some 160 countries are gathering in Bonn to try to negotiate cutbacks in the emissions of heat-trapping gases linked to global warming. Although most experts agree that these gases may cause the seas to rise, there are major disagreements about the scale of the change and the severity of the problem.
Gases like carbon dioxide are suspected of causing global warming by effectively creating a greenhouse around Earth. Warmer temperatures, in turn, are linked to a rising of the seas in two ways: by causing the water to expand as it warms, and by melting glaciers and icecaps.
''It's so close to the heart here,'' said Giff Johnson, editor of the Marshall Islands' newspaper, ''because you're talking about people's very existence being wiped out by the ocean rising. It scares the hell out of people to think that their country might just be gone.''
Industrialized countries like the United States are responsible for most of the greenhouse gas emissions, and they are reluctant to curb industry much while the scientific jury is still out on the seriousness of the effects. That annoys the island nations, which argue that by the time the jury reaches its verdict they may be visible only at low tide.
''It's like little ants making a home on a leaf floating on a pond,'' grumbled Teburoro Tito, President of Kiribati. ''And the elephants go to drink and roughhouse in the water. The problem isn't the ants' behavior. It's a problem of how to convince the elephants to be more gentle.''
Many of the island countries in the Pacific, including Kiribati (pronounced KIH-rih-bus), are collections of coral formations. Usually a string of islets around a turquoise lagoon, they resemble not so much nations as sandbars.
Each island peeps just a few feet above sea level and is only about a hundred yards wide, sometimes less. Many homes offer bicoastal views, from sea to shining sea, and a country like Kiribati, situated about halfway between California and Australia, can at low tide be three times as big as at high tide.
In such countries the lagoon is central to the economy and national identity, for children play in the water from infancy, and many adults fish or sail for a living. The Kiribati men in their loincloths go out in outrigger canoes each day to catch tuna, and the women wade out on the coral reef to dive for shellfish and net smaller fish for dinner.
The countries most likely to go under the sea include Kiribati, the Marshall Islands and Tuvalu, all in the Pacific, and the Maldives, in the Indian Ocean. Many other island countries, including Tonga, Palau, Nauru, Niue and the Federated States of Micronesia, may lose much of their territory but for now are probably not in danger of total submersion.
The populations are tiny: Kiribati has 75,000 people, and only 10,000 live on Tuvalu. Those numbers pale beside the 150 million additional refugees worldwide forecast as a result of climate change by 2050, according to a 1993 academic study published in the journal BioScience. Other studies suggest that a rise of 3 feet in ocean levels would force the evacuation of perhaps 70 million Chinese and 32 million Bangladeshis. One-fifth of Bangladesh would also disappear.
Yet at least countries like Bangladesh would survive, though perhaps in truncated form. The Pacific islanders fret not only about whether their countries will exist outside of history books, but also about changes they see in their climate today. For all the scientific uncertainty about global warming, they insist that the weather has been getting stranger in recent years and has produced some unprecedented tidal surges.
''These aren't storms, they're surges,'' said Mr. Johnson of the Marshall Islands. ''It's nice weather, and all of a sudden water is pouring into your living room. It's very clear that something is happening in the Pacific, and these islands are feeling it.''

Use VB for reference. Shit's so wack you wouldn't want to get it yo. Again, why is everyone expecting code that makes sense so late at night. Just adding to the joke man, no need to get so butt-blistered over it.
#73 - honkan (10/25/2014) [-]
You made that comment 4 hours ago. Either you don't sleep a lot, or you really need to get the fuck to bed, if it was so late at night you couldn't think properly four hours ago.
It was more that I was curious if that actually could do anything, in whatever fucked up language it was. That, and I kinda dislike seeing stuff that just look like code but really isn't.
#74 - applecrash (10/25/2014) [-]
My mornings are normal peoples nights lately, sadly. I feel you, but my only real experience with programming is Visual Basic which kinda lets you just do what I did and Java which has you sacrifice your first born son and then makes only half the booleans' intended functions work, so that could attribute to the fact that i forgot to initialize the boolean first.

Nigga this aint SJWchan and why do you expect good code in 40 seconds?
#77 - copperonic (10/25/2014) [-]
Because, its 4 lines, most people who have been coding for longer than 5 months can easily create good short code in 40 seconds. All i was saying was you are not the first FJ user to randomly and without any reason, start posting VB/Java all over the fucking place, trying to explain content. I don't know if you are just looking for somewhere to practice or you think we think you are an UBER HAXXOR because you code in visual basic, but its not the first time i've seen it.
#83 - applecrash (10/26/2014) [-]
Neither of the two actually, im just adding to the joke. If you want someone to explain content make a progexplain account or some shit, but getting shitter-shattered over seeing some code is the wrong thing to do man.

#84 - cabbagemayhem (10/26/2014) [-]
Cars run on gasoline, therefore they do not need oil. How do you get by calling other people dumb? Anyway, I never said fats were the reason meat is important to sustain brain mass, though I'm sure they are quite important. I was referring to the various studies that support the overall theory that it would have been virtually impossible to develop our dense brain mass without the ability to eat meat. For example: www.livescience.com/24875-meat-human-brain.html

#86 - cabbagemayhem (10/26/2014) [-]
"fruit is what gave birth to higher consciousness."
You have no sources to support your arbitrary claim? What I believe, actually, is that meat and fruit are both likely to be responsible for our brain mass, as they are both commonly found in the diets of intelligent species, but fruit alone will not do it. Nearly 70% of the diet of gorillas are fruit, and they still don't have the nutrient intake to sustain our relative brain mass.
I like to eat freshly decomposing corpses of animals, so don't waste your time with loquacity. The word for it is "meat".
#87 - enduranceathlete (10/26/2014) [-]
#88 - cabbagemayhem (10/26/2014) [-]
So far, my position is based on fact and reason. Do you have anything left except name calling? What's delusional is thinking animals are somehow equivalent to humans. One benefit to being Christian is you can refute arbitrarily created moral systems that make no objective sense and have no positive outcome, without getting existential.

The Best Burger Meat
Laura's Lean Beef 92% Lean Ground
If you're grilling burgers, make them from this beef. It's so flavorful, all you need is salt and pepper to season. Then, grill them until droplets of blood appear on the raw side, about 3 minutes. Now flip. For medium rare, cook this side about 2 more minutes (or 3 more minutes for medium). Resist the urge to press on the burgers to make them sizzle. Burger connoisseur and author George Motz says doing that smooshes out a lot of the tasty juices. Click here to learn how George Motz makes the ultimate burger.
The Best Chicken Wings
Chicken wings are delicious—when done right. True chicken wings should taste like chicken. As no-sh*t as that sounds, most sports bars mask the meat's flavor by first dunking the wings into a deep fryer and then pummeling them with a mixture of butter and sauce. All you end up tasting is fat and spice. Great wings never touch hot oil and the flavoring comes from a marinade that compliments the chicken instead of overpowering it.
Check out Elizabeth Karmel's recipe. Karmel's the executive chef of Hill Country Barbecue Market and Hill Country Chicken, both in NYC. Her easy-as-all-hell recipe pre-soaks wings in Louisiana hot sauce and then cooks them on the grill, where the circulating high heat turns the skin crispy and the flame adds that something extra your oven (or a deep fryer) never can.
The Best Pickles
Woodstock Farms Organic Kosher Whole Dill Pickles
Eat these crisp pickles straight out of the jar, Snooki-style, or pop a few slices atop a grilled chicken sandwich.
The Best Hot Dog
Applegate Farms Uncured Beef Hot Dogs
One taste and you'll never eat another dirty-water dog from the stadium again. (Try our recipe for Teriyaki Dogs with Grilled Pineapple for a delicious, flavorful, and healthy twist on this old favorite.)
The Best Alternative to Shrimp Cocktail
One-up the chump who always cheaps out on the store-bought shrimp tray with stone-crab claws with coastline dipping sauce.
The Best Chicken
Bell & Evans Organic Boneless/Skinless Breast Meat
It's the juiciest, most flavorful supermarket poultry we've ever tasted. Marinade it in balsamic vinegar, oil, garlic, rosemary, oregano, and pepper for 30 minutes before throwing it on the grill with some peppers, onions, potatoes, and other veggies for a delicious dinner.
The Best Ketchup
Heinz Organic
Simple: It tastes fresher than the non-organic variety.
The Best Burger Bun
Arnold Select Sandwich Thins, Whole Wheat
Less bread so you can taste more meat. (And try them with one of these 25 Gourmet Sandwiches for Guys.)
The Best Way to Make Beer Better
Don't think it's possible? Jimmy the Bartender would like to prove you wrong. The Spicy Lady combines raw sugar, cayenne pepper, lemon, lemon juice, and light-bodied beer (like Corona). Try serving it or one of these other Delicious Beer Cocktails at your next party.
The Best Steak
Laura's Lean Beef Ribeye Steak
We usually like a little more fat on our steaks, but this richly flavored beef deserves kudos. In our new book, Grill This, Not That!, we show you how to prepare a mouth-watering strip steak with blue cheese butter. Click here to see this delicious recipe.
The Best Chili
Amy's Organic Low Fat Medium Black Bean
For a lazy-man's "homemade" chili, used a couple of cans of this slightly-spicy vegetarian chili as your base, then pile in your extra ingredients like cooked beef, cooked venison, dark chocolate, beer, or chili powder.
The Best Grilled Appetizer
Shell-on Shrimp
Split the shell down the back, but toss them on the grill with the shell still on. Cook until pink throughout. This will toast the shell and deepen the flavor of the shrimp.
The Best BBQ Sauce
Pork Barrel
Slap on chicken just minutes before it comes off the grill for a tangy, smoky flavor. It makes a great substitute for our homemade sauce used on this incredible recipe for Classic Barbecue Chicken.
The Best Guacamole
Yucatan Organic Guacamole
Some "guacamole flavor" dips contain no actual avocados. This brand lists organic Hass avocados as the first ingredient.
The Best Hot Dog Roll
Pepperidge Farm Classic Whole Grain White
A bun that's built to stand up to loads of sauerkraut.
The Best Burger Alternative
Luscious lamb, creamy hummus, lots of garlic—This recipe for Grilled Lamb Gyros is for serious tailgaters only.

Grill strips under an aluminum-foil-wrapped brick for an awesome, crispy appetizer as your fellow fans wait for the main course.
The Best Cheese
Emmi Le Gruyère Cave-aged Kaltbach
A block that will impress enough the pickiest cheese heads.
The Best Tortilla Chip
Miguel's Organic Everything Tortilla Dippers

Skill Level Beginner
Between levels and GUI we've now covered enough to be able to make a start menu. So I've gone ahead and made a simple one for us to use. Let's import the StartMenu package, right-click > Import Package > Custom Package and 13-07 > Assets, and we're going to select StartScreen, click Open and Import. This one adds a new scene directly to our scenes folder.
Let's go ahead and double- click on it to load it. And we're looking for StartMenu, and we can save the scene. As you've probably guessed, the start screen exists only in scripting. Let's go ahead and select the main camera where our script resides and then open our StartScreen script. The main thing of interest here is the use of backslash N in the text string for instructions.
It gives us an easy way to control the line feeds without adding more controls. We're also using GUI.DrawTexture. We'll see GUI.DrawTexture in another video. With the introduction of Unity GUI, it's no longer feasible to use GUI texture objects as cursors. Unity GUI controls are always drawn on top of everything else. So to make a custom cursor, we're going to need to use the Unity GUI. We'll do that in the StartScreen script.
First we'll need to tell it what texture to use, so let's create a variable, var pointer of type texture. Give myself a little bit of room and var pointer of type Texture. Next we're going to need a start function to make sure we can turn the operating system cursor off. I'm going to get that one from the snippets file, Exercise Files13/13-07/Snippets.
And I'll just copy the entire start function here, right-click, Copy, and I'm going to put it right below the variable declarations. So that's going to turn our screen cursor off. Now we'll need to know where the operating system cursor's position is. To do that we're going to use Event.current.mousePosition. Let's test it first. Let's go ahead and get the code from Snippets again. And this is the one we want.
We're going to test it with a print statement first, right-click and Copy. And let's go ahead and add it at the bottom of the OnGUI function, Ctrl+V to Paste, let's save this script now and head back to the editor. Let's start by turning on Maximize on Play, and then we can go ahead and click Play and move the mouse around. It's position will be reported in the console. Let's turn on Maximize on Play, and also, let's change from Free Aspect to our Standalone size, 1024x768.
Now we can click Play, and here is our little splash screen. It's a little bit off because we aren't a full 1024x768 yet, but we can get the idea. Let's move our cursor around. In the bottom left you can see that the position is being reported in the console, and let's exit Play mode. So now, let's convert that position to a variable that we can get the X and Y from. I'll get that code from Snippets as well. And we're going to get these two lines, right-click and Copy, back to the Script editor, and we're going to put them below our print line and comment out our print line.
Now we can get the X and Y position using mousePos.x and mousePos.y that we get from this variable we've added here. So let's save our script and head back to the editor, and we need to find a texture for our pointer. Let's select the Textures folder, right- click and Import New Asset, and here we have GamePointerSm, and that's the one we want. Select it and Import.
It's a little different than the operating cursor system. Let's select the Main Camera now and drag our new GamePointerSm onto the pointer field, and let's click Play. Now we have a custom cursor, and let's exit Play mode. We're going to try one more thing here. Let's change the color of our cursor. To change the color of a GUI control, we need to use GUI.color.
Every control after that line will inherit the color. So if we needed to clear the color, we would use GUI.color = color.white after the colored control. Let's go back to the Script editor and add a variable for our color. So up at the top I'm going to add var cursorColor of type color, and we'll go ahead and initialize it to Color.green, and in the on GUI function above the mouse pointer code, we're going to add GUI.color = cursorColor.
Let's save our script and head back to the editor. And now we can see our new variable. It's a color swatch. Maybe green isn't going to be the best choice, so I'm going to go ahead and click on it now, and I want to change mine to kind of a reddish-orange. Let's click Play and test the new cursor. And there it is, our newly-colored cursor. Let's exit Play mode and then save the scene, so we can add it to the build.
File > Save Scene, and now we're going to use Build Settings. Add Current, and this one needs to be at the top, so we'll just drag it up and drop it, and we'll click Build. Let's just use the same file and save, and yes we want replace it. And we'll close that window, then we'll the close Build Settings window. And finally, remember the crosshair we turned off a while back? We can now replace it with a simple script with the GUI control.
Let's go ahead and get back to the main level for a minute. Double-click to open the main level, we're going to use Import New Asset to bring in the GUI's crosshair script, and we want to bring it into the game scripts folder, so I'm going to select that, right-click > Import New Asset, going to go out to my Desktop, Exercise Files13/13-07/Assets, and here's the script we want, select it and Import.
Now we can open up the first-person controller and the Main Camera and the Weapon Handler and drop our script on the Proxy Weapon. Since this script is a child of the object, it gets deactivated when the object does, so there's only one thing we need to do now, and that is select the Proxy Weapon and assign the crosshair texture. And here it is right here, and we'll drag and drop it into the crosshair field.
I'm going to turn off Maximize on Play, click Play, and I'm going to turn towards a darker area, and now when I press 0 on my keypad, our crosshair comes and goes with the Proxy Weapon, and let's exit Play mode. I'll press Escape and exit. With the addition of a start screen, we should be in good shape to play through our game.

From Publishers Weekly
Surprisingly little appears to have changed in shamanic practices throughout the world in the last 500 years. Most rely on plant hallucinogens to communicate with otherworldly spirits for guidance and for enhanced perceptions of diseases and the identities of enemies. And most can choose whether to direct their energies for good or for evil purposes, an ability that provoked much hostility among their early observers. Scholarly treatments of shamanism, however, have changed dramatically over the centuries. In this excellent volume, anthropologists Narby (The Cosmic Serpent) and Huxley (Affable Savages) have collected observations about and interviews with shamans from more than 60 missionaries, botanists, anthropologists, ethnographers and psychologists spanning from 1535 to 2000. The contributors convey everything from fear, suspicion and condescension to respect, fascination and adulation. Many contemporary anthropologists lament shamanism's recent popularization and its likely degeneration in global culture. Anthropologist Michael F. Brown writes, "Tribal lore is a supermarket from which [New Age Americans] choose some tidbits while spurning others." As an example of shamanism-as-commodity, British anthropologist Piers Vitebsky cites a dumbed-down version of traditional healing that is part of a compulsory course for schoolchildren in northeast Siberia, where 50 years ago shamans were put to death. On the positive side, ethobotanist Glenn H. Shepard believes that shamans will become the ethnobotanists of the future. This first sweeping study of shamanism is sure to become a classic.

From Library Journal
Narby (The Cosmic Serpent: DNA & the Origins of Knowledge, Putnam, 1998) and Huxley (Affable Savages: An Anthropologist Among the Urub# Indians of Brazil, Sheffield, 1995) have compiled this anthology of excerpts from 64 previously published works to illustrate how shamanism has been perceived through the centuries. The essays are divided into seven parts, each including an introductory essay that identifies the prejudices of the researchers and shows how preconceived notions influenced both their methodology and the evolution of the study of shamanism. Many of the authors included in this anthology, such as Black Elk and Claude L?vi-Strauss, are familiar to those interested in the subject. What makes this work unique is that it also includes translations of relevant materials that were previously available only in foreign languages. The inclusion of an excerpt from Carlos Castaneda is questionable, however, since much of his "research" has been largely discredited. Recommended for large public libraries and academic libraries with anthropology collections. John Burch, Campbellsville Univ., KY

Deepika Padukone Turns Choreographer And Fashion Designer
Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone has been the talk of the town since her impressive role in Chennai Express. In the recently released song titled 'Nagada Sang Dhol Baje' from Ram Leela, Deepika brings back the garba to Bollywood. Garba is a traditional dance which originates from the state of Gujarat.
This song with Deepika dancing with high energy got us all comparing her to Aishwarya's garba dance from the movie Devdas. Some said that Deepika was aping Aishwarya and the others said that Deepika danced better than Aishwarya. It is said that Sanjay Leela Bhansali told Deepika to dance in her natural style and so the actress let her hair down and put in some enthusiastic steps for the 'nagada' song.
Deepika looks stunning in the red lehenga that she has donned for the garba and has also done a brilliant job by giving a helping hand for the choreography.
Apart from all the grooving, we also see that Deepika will debut as a fashion designer as she co-creates and unveils this season's Women's Limited Edition collection exclusively for Van Heusen. This Banglorean model-turned-actress, who is known for classy dressing is ready to set new trends.
With this, we can see that Deepika has just stepped up to another level. "It's a little bit of what I already have and what I would like to see myself wearing. The collection is really about wearing your own personality. That's something I've always believed in. It's important to not forget who you are," explained Deepika.
Have a look at the slide show for images of Deepika, the fashionista.

The description sounds like a real-life fish-out-of-water tale crossed with a sports movie. But the film wants to be more than that, and I'm on the fence about how well it succeeds.
This observant documentary avoids pedagogy; it's not always artful, but it has a relaxed, light touch that never topples into pretension.
Though there's something refreshing, and disturbingly familiar, about Kevin Sheppard's spontaneity, he's certainly not the most interesting thing about the film.

Bangladeshi director set to start filming of anti-Jihadist moview BLACK
Black is based on the theme showing how religious minorities, especially Hindus are being repressed in Muslim Bangladesh.
Black is based on the theme showing how religious minorities, especially Hindus are being repressed in Muslim Bangladesh.
The film shows the breeding of Jihadists inside Madrassas [Koranic Schools] and various types of crime inside these institutions, including sodomy by the Madrassa teachers. Students of Madrassas are regularly violated and raped by the Madrassa teachers.
It also shows how Muslim societies are continuing to repress women in the name of Sharia Law and how women are treated as mere sexual pleasure tools by the Muslim societies. Issue of polygamy has been very prominently projected in the script.
The film very boldly challenges few Koranic verses and misinterpretation of Koran by the Muslim clergies. It also condemns Fatwa [Islamic Rulings].
A total amount of US$ 120 thousand will be spent in this film project which will reach at least 30 million Bangla speaking population in Bangladesh and India as well as the film subsequently will be dubbed in English and other languages reaching the international audiences. Philanthropists around the world are already requested by the makers of this film to come forward with possible assistance in finally implementing this project, since Bangladeshi financial institutions won't provide loan for this film project.
This is for the first time, a movie against radical Islam and Sharia law is being made in a Muslim country.

Vibgyor Films is a promising cine production and distribution company in Bangladesh, continuing to produce full length feature films and shorth films with the gola of educating through entertainment. The company emphasises on scripts, which contain strong message against radical Islam.

Sail & Anchor
April 10, 2013 | 1 Comment
Designed by Marque Brand Consultants | Country: Australia
"The Brief: the Pinnacle group tasked Marque Brand consultants with extending the portfolio of its mainstream Sail & Anchor brand into a craft beer territory for a new range. Knowing that the craft beer drinker most likes the authenticity in their great tasting beer of choice, and revels in the detail of crafted ingredients, Marque delved into the history of the Sail & Anchor brand to unearth a truth that could be the bedrock of the craft range. What it so excitedly discovered was that the Sail & Anchor brand has over a century of heritage in the seafaring port of Fremantle, where sea shanties have been sung and beers have been brewed in the Sail & Anchor hotel off and on for decades and is still being brewed there today. The Sail & Anchor hotel had seen many seafaring characters and personalities walk through it's doors and the resulting brand weaves wonderfully romantic stories of Sailor's Knots used in days gone by, elements of Fremantle history, a little touch of humour and brings them to life in an endearing illustrative form."

Vi Novell
April 5, 2013 | 4 Comments
Designed by Atipus | Country: Spain
"Traditionally, in November, coinciding with the celebration of the slaughtering of the pig, the 'Vi Novell' is bottled. This is a fresh and fruity wine which is bottled before its fermentation is finished.
Therefore, the wine doesn't mature in the bottle and it must be consumed within a short space of time. It is a wine for enjoying; a wine for celebration."
Hendrick's Quinetum
April 4, 2013 | 3 Comments
Designed by Quaker City Mercantile | Country: United States
"After much intensive research and development, Philadelphia-based Quaker City Mercantile is thrilled to present Quinetum, a highly exclusive quinine cordial from Steven Grasse, creator of the iconic Hendrick's Gin.
Quinetum is a unique and complex blend comprised of Cinchona Succirubra Bark, from which Quinine is derived, and a range of botanicals (4% ABV ethanol). It is designed to be a bartender's tinkering tool when used as a cocktail ingredient or can be lengthened with soda water and combined with Hendrick's in place of tonic.
Grasse decided to bring the curious history of quinine to life channeling the ethos of Thomas Whiffen, a renowned maker of poisons who established The Quinine Works of Battersea, London and whose likeness graces the Quinetum bottle. He was the first person to synthesize quinine in the 1800's, which at the time was a lifesaving drug against malaria."

"Objective: to execute a brand repositioning strategy. The objective is to target the US and Canadian markets with a relaxed and informal style aimed at people who drink wine in a simpler way, without paying attention to origin, terroir or specific wine characteristics."
March 31, 2013 | 1 Comment
Designed by OlssønBarbieri | Country: Norway
"Cafaggio is a traditional Tuscan wine property from the Chianti area.
We designed a 3 liter Bag in box with a new level of sophistication in mind compared to the existing standard in the market. Most wine producers are reluctant to market their premium wines in Bag in Box because they don't feel the product format reflects the quality of their wine.
The goal was to challenge the industry and production line standards introducing a premium paper quality. Thanks to the selection of one of the finest italian paper producers, the hot foil, the embossing of the brand-name and the carefully orchestrated layout the result of the Cafaggio BiB has worked as a door opener to convince other wine producers to sell their premium wines in Bag in Box as well."
Winemaker's Selection
March 28, 2013 | 1 Comment
Designed by OlssønBarbieri | Country: Norway
"Winemaker's Selection is a collection of wines selected by the most acclaimed winemakers in the world representing the "state-of-the-art" of winemaking.
The winemaker's name together with the producers logo represent an exceptional possibility to work on a surprising and bold concept.
We wanted to involve the winemakers so that every product would be unique but also connected by the same idea, so we asked them to select a decorated ceramic plate from their home (the favorite, the most used, the oldest, …) and to tell us a little story about it."
Collection Frithjof Nicolaysen
March 27, 2013 | 1 Comment
Designed by OlssønBarbieri | Country: Norway
"Arcus Wine Brands approached Olssøn Barbieri with the repositioning of one of their most important product series, Collection Frithjof Nicolaysen.
The brand was first launched in 2002 and is recognized by Norwegian consumers and wine critics as one of the most reputable product series in Norway offering a pure grape variety experience to entry level consumers. Frithjof Nicolaysen is president of the European Federation of Wine and Spirits Importers.
After a recent design change in 2011 however, sales were dropping drastically, consumers no longer recognized the brand and almost no new consumers were recruited.
The unique quality of the CFN range is to express the typical aroma of each variety. Every grape has its unique look (color and shape of grapes and leaves), typical aromas and the terroir that express it at its best."

The Southern Regional Education Board's Electronic Campus contains a database of online education offered by schools throughout the South. Students can search for courses or degrees by subject, program level, or institution. The site encompasses 15 schools in Alabama that, as of December 2012, offer 175 degrees online. The number of programs at each level is as follows:
In addition, many national online schools offer degree programs to students in Alabama. These colleges typically feature a broader range of degree concentrations than their brick-and-mortar peers. Some, such as ITT Technical Institute, also have physical locations in Alabama where students can supplement their online learning with on-campus sessions.
Eighty-two percent of Alabama residents have earned a high school diploma, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Among those 18-24 years old, 44.7 percent have attended college or earned an associate degree, but just 7 percent in that age group have earned a bachelor's degree. Among those 25 and older, one in five have some college experience, but only 7 percent have earned an associate degree and 14 percent have earned a bachelor's degree. A little more than 8 percent of the state's residents have a graduate or professional degree.

Tuition figures are sourced from the National Center for Education Statistics and reflect in-state tuition (when in-state tuition is available) for all students, including online students. See our Methodology section for more details on the ranking methodology.

Can you tell us a little about the online programs offered at your school?
For nearly a century, Bama By Distance has enabled nontraditional adult students to earn a degree from The University of Alabama. The development of online programs over the course of many years has allowed more students to obtain the same high-quality instruction as our on-campus students receive from some of the same great faculty. Although online courses demand a high level of commitment, this option gives UA students the convenience of learning on their own time and the flexibility of earning a degree while balancing family, career and education. In order to offer them the best student experience, our distance students follow the same process as on-campus students, and are offered the same resources as campus students, such as IT Support, Academic Advising, access to UA's libraries, the Writing Center, and the University's Career Center. The University of Alabama offers 12 undergraduate degree programs online, 25 graduate degree programs online and 9 blended or distance programs.
What advice would you give to students interested in an online degree program?
Students interested in an online degree program are oftentimes intimidated by the many different types of colleges offering degrees by distance. The first thing students should know is that rankings and accreditation matter. The University of Alabama is accredited by Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges and has ranked among the top 50 public universities in the nation for more than a decade. According to U.S. News and World Report's 2014 edition of "Best Grad Schools," the UA School of Law ranked 21st, the School of Library and Information Studies ranked 18th, and the Manderson Online Business master's programs are 12th in the United States. But great education does not have to mean great expense. Once a student has determined that online is right for them, finding a quality academic program and affordable tuition is of upmost importance. The University of Alabama offers affordable tuition to our Distance Learning students regardless of where they live.
How do you anticipate online learning might evolve in the coming years?
As online learning evolves, it will be critical for universities to keep pace with new and emerging technologies while transforming the ways in which students learn. Students will want new formats and methods of learning that provide more dynamic, media-rich content. Programs will become more individualized and will put more focus on interaction and peer-to-peer learning while giving students the opportunity to delve into subject areas within a course that most interests them or is most applicable to their career. The University of Alabama seeks to make all students part of the UA family. As our programs continue to grow, we want to build lasting relationships with our distance-learning students and increase their sense of affiliation, regardless of whether they have ever set foot on campus.

Huntsville only has a population of 180,000 people, but when it's combined with surrounding towns, including Decatur, the metropolitan area swells. There are more than 200,000 workers in the Huntsville metropolitan area, and they earn an average of $24.44 per hour, for an annual wage of $50,840. In nearby Decatur, the roughly 53,000 workers there earn $18.97 an hour on average, or $39,450 per year. Average home prices in the Huntsville area are $241,080, and the Cost of Living Index is 95.2.

The National Trust for Historic Preservation recently named Huntsville on of the country's top 12 "distinctive destinations." One attraction for history buffs is the Alabama Constitution Village, an open-air museum where life from 1819 is re-enacted every day. Huntsville, located in the hill country of the extreme northern edge of the state, is also home to many outdoor activities, including the Madison County Nature Trail and Monte Sano State Park.

Mobile is the only saltwater port in the state of Alabama, and shipping has always played a major role in the economic health of the city. There are 167,890 workers in the Mobile metropolitan area, and they earn an average of $19.34 per hour, for an annual wage of $40,230. The Cost of Living Index is 92.3 and home prices average $235,300.
Mobile has a population of 195,111, making it the third largest in the state, and when the populations of the nearby cities of Daphne and Fairhope are blended, the population just barely exceeds 600,000. The area provides about 10 percent of the state's workers.
It's hot and humid in Mobile because of its location on the Gulf Coast, so a lot of people simply head to the beach during the warm months. Mobile also has its own Mardi Gras celebration to rival that of its neighbor in New Orleans, and it has a great number of museums and historic sites worth visiting.

Templates optimized for ebay mobile!
eBay Templates Design eBay HTML Templates
"Why are all of OCDesigns seller's listings at the top of eBay searches?"
We get asked this EVERY. SINGLE. DAY.
There is no joke to this situation. If you want to be a successful eBay business and you want sales, don't purchase a template that you find online for sale for $40. Do you ever see those listing templates on eBay results? No. Why? Because they are 40$ templates. There is a lot more that goes into a GREAT template then just some "pretty" graphics.
I bet right now your thinking, what separates OCDesignsonline.com from the rest of the other eBay design companies right? I don't blame you, there are so many options out there, who do you trust? The answer is simple, we not only stand behind our word and offer the absolute best quality design for the most affordable prices, but we are recommended from eBay personally for a design package. There are no companies who have this kind of backing like we do. Take a look at the video where eBay requested OCDesigns to attend a conference to explain to their sellers the importance of not only doing a custom store and template, but having it done by us.
If you are active on eBay, you know each day ebay grows with more sellers and the competition becomes fierce. Do NOT get lost in the shuffle by purchasing a pre-made template from someone who has no knowledge or experience of what it takes to sell and be successful on eBay. Brand yourself with a completely custom eBay template from the experts who have designed hundreds of thousands of eBay templates.
We are chosen by eBay account managers on a daily basis to assist sellers with design packages to help them be successful on eBay, this honor does not come lightly.
There are many eBay designers on the web you can hire, however you can feel secure knowing we have over 150,000 listing templates with our custom mobile optimized ebay designs live on eBay, from the beginners to platinum sellers and national brands like Pep Boys.
Not sure where to start? We have great news! Unlike other design firms, we are open Monday through Friday 9 AM to 5 PM, which means you can speak directly with your designer, programmer or your personal project manager. No outsourcing here!
With our eBay templates you gain:
- Your eBay template comes with a custom gallery with product images that can be enlarged for optimal viewing.
- Your eBay template design will be optimized for fast loading
- Storefront elements including your store's top and side navigation bars for quick shopping along with unlimited promo banners.
- eBay template designs that are mobile-friendly.
- Exact color and logo matching that aligns with your storefront.

A Galesburg man and woman were arrested after noon Thursday after fleeing from police in a car and on foot.
A Galesburg man and woman were arrested after noon Thursday after fleeing from police in a car and on foot.
Michelle L. Esp, 43, 890 S. Kellogg St., was arrested for driving on a suspended license, fleeing/attempting to elude police, resisting a peace officer and a failure to appear warrant. Daniel W. Wells, 23, 890 S. Kellogg St., was arrested for resisting a peace officer and a failure to appear warrant.
Officers were at Esp's place of employment attempting to locate her on a Knox County warrant around 12:25 p.m. Thursday. They found her driving her 1997 Dodge pickup on Louisville Road and activated their lights and siren.
Police said Esp, with Wells a passenger, increased her speed from 20 mph to 50 mph and refused to pull over. Esp passed United Facilities and Dick Blick and was travelling over 60 mph as she drove past Berg's Towing.
Officers noticed an upcoming curve in the road on South Henderson Street and slowed down to turn. Esp skidded out of control around the turn and almost collided with the shoulder. She regained control and drove toward Sharkey's Transportation, 597 Enterprise Ave., where she abandoned her vehicle.
Police located her near her vehicle. However, Wells had fled through the grass to the rail yard. He was apprehended on Enterprise Avenue.
Esp told police she fled from police because she wanted to get back to work and knew there was a warrant out for her arrest. She said she knew Wells had a warrant out for his arrest as well and did not want to get him into trouble.

We had a very nice stay in Supetar! The apartment was only 100m from the promenade, the apartment was clean and we had a beautiful view from the balcony overlooking the town and sea.
Ivo and his mother where very kind, she even surprised us with a homemade apfelstrudel!
We can recommend this apartment to anyone thinking of staying in Supetar!
Clean and a good restaurant!
The floor was dusty. Apartment is on the 5th floor without lift (no information on description) Be carefull for additional costs (bed linen, towels, taxes) Cleaning charged per person !!!! Wifi very expensive (24 Euro per week for 1GB) You must pickup and drop key 1,2 miles from apartment. Excellent furnitures on desciption - just typical table with chairs and sofa (nothing special) You must defrozen refrigerator but you cannot turn off. Huge PLUS - location !!!
This was an overall appalling experience and thus has led our family to never rent from Wimdu ever again moving forward. As the photos advertised a lovely apartment (not cheap, I might add - about $300 per night), we realized upon arrival and after reading the fine print that the photos on the post were simply an "example" of an apartment that you MIGHT be placed in. After taking an expensive cab ride to pick up the key and digging through pages of contracts to find the code to unlock the door and the safebox, we then had to take another expensive cab to the other side of the city where the apartment was located. The location was fine but we had to drag our heavy bags up three flights of stairs, because the apartment did not have a lift. When we arrived, the apartment was tiny and nothing like the photos online. The worst part was then at checkout, we were expected to return the key to the safebox again on the other side of town. These people BRIDGESTREET ARE COMPLETE FRAUDS! Do not rent from them. Ever.
Great place to stay during Alp days in Swiss. Charming apartment in a wonderful village with all comfort and home tools. Besides, Patricia the owner is really helpful and make you feel like home. I would recommend this apartment to any traveller.
The place was very clean and big. It had a nice garden that we could use whenever we wanted, which is great if you go with kids. The only problem was that it said the beach was 400m away, which is true but it was 400m of steps, which is a problem when you are coming back and have to go up (with kids, baby and a lot of stuff).
Apart from that, everything was great.
Fantastic views - just like in the pictures.
Would go back anytime!
Accommodation: as described, beautiful complex with pool, clean and very well equipped.
Location: 300 m to the beach, all the shops
Organisation: professional and very friendly
Conclusion: 100% recommended
Unterkunft: wie beschrieben, schöne Anlage mit Pool, sauber und sehr gut ausgestattet.
Ort: 300 m zum Strand, alle Einkaufsmöglichkeiten
Organisation: professionell und sehr freundlich
Fazit: 100% empfehlenswert
Spacious apartment located in the lovely garden and nature.Terrasse
River Swimming (undeveloped area but easy access) 200m walk a small path
Appartement spacieux situé en pleine nature.Terrasse et jardin très agréables
Possibilité de baignade en rivière (zone non aménagée mais accès facile) à 200 m à pieds par un petit chemin
Les Isles de Sola is located in Grandcamp centrally by the harbor and near the sea, the direct access to Meerf however there is still a campsite between. The staff is very friendly and helpful, in the middle of the complex there is a rather small pool which is heated, is unfortunately already closed at 18:00.
The apartments are rather modestly furnished, the kitchen is very simple, all set up together fairly and cleanly.
Les Isles de Sola liegt in Grandcamp zentral beim Hafen und in der Nähe des Meeres, beim direkten Zugang zum Meerf liegt allerdings noch ein Campingplatz dazwischen. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit, in der Mitte der Anlage gibt es einen eher kleinen Pool der beheizt ist, leider aber schon um 18:00 geschlossen wird.
Die Appartements sind eher bescheiden eingerichtet, die Kochnische ist sehr einfach gehalten, alles zusammen leidlich eingerichtet und sauber.
