1. Have your own life – with and without your S/O
Yes, so worth it! ♥
Yes it is getting us through as well 🙂
Definitely!! ♥
Awww, thats such an amazing idea! Ill keep that in mind 🙂 ♥
Definitely! ♥
It is really challenging, but so worth it once you see each other again 🙂 ♥
♥ I hope it is 🙂
I did long distance with my now husband for the first year, it was hard but worth it!
These are all great tips! My boyfriend and I had to do long distance a couple summers ago and it was definitely hard but setting small goals and having our own lives definitely helped get us through.
aww! My bf and I were long distance over the summer. It was hard not seeing him everyday but it was also so important that we weren't bogged down texting one another every second!
I love the idea with surprising each other! When I was in a long distance relationship we'd send each other pizza after a long day!
These are great tips! I've never really been in a LDR but I can imagine that it can have its own challenges.

I've never been in a LDR and can only imagine how challenging it can be. Your tips sound super helpful in making the relationship work!
Awww this is so on point!
Definitely, thats why I thought I would share some of my knowledge 🙂
Xo Karoline
Thank you! Yes definitely true! 🙂
XO Karoline
Oh wow, I had a lot of friends in the military so I can totally relate to what you are saying!
Seeing each other after a long time is so so exciting though!
XO Karoline
Yes, very important aspect for me to see the bigger picture 🙂
XO Karoline
Xo Karoline
For sure! Even when we weren't long distance we always had our own hobbies, set of friends and lives!
XO Karoline
Yes it is really hard! We have half a year to go then we are finally done with the long distance 🙂
Thank you XO
Yes it can be so hard! But I always keep the goal in sight to see him again :).
these are great points! LDRs can be difficult but we all need ways to stay in touch and make it work. thanks for sharing!
Having your own life even when they live close is so important! Love these tips
I've spent some time in LDR's so I definitely know how tough it can be. My boyfriend is in the military, so he's often all over the place, which can be really hard sometimes. I find that being able to look forward to the next time we see each other helps tremendously.
I like the idea of small goals to work towards, with bigger ones in the future!! So smart 🙂
Such good points! Having a life w/ and w/out your s/o is so important in keeping yourself healthy and happy!
Your first tip is so important for all relationships, long distance or not! These are great tips!
My now-husband and I did long-distance while I was in nursing school, it sure was tough but it makes you stronger.
These are great tips! I love #2 because it's so true! Long distance relationships can be so hard sometimes. You two are adorable together! <3

Where did you see the most growth?
The most artistic growth I made was with the portraits and facial proportions.
What are some areas you're still struggling with?
I'm still struggling with watercolors. Layering watercolors definitively isn't my strength.
What has been most helpful to you in this class?
The fact that I've had a lot of room for artistic creativity was fantastic. I loved being able to experiment with a ton of different things.
What do you wish you had learned in this class that you didn't?
I wanted to spend a little more time on portraits because they're super relaxing to me, but other than that everything was fantastic and I wouldn't change the course at all.

You must have definitely heard Mr. Rajiv Bajaj's brand strategy to focus more on Discover & Pulsar and less on the parent Bajaj brand.. but do you really understand him..??
It was sometime in April 2010 (when I was on my annual vacation to my native) when Mr. Rajiv Bajaj (MD Bajaj Auto) made an official announcement that soon the product brands "Discover" and "Pulsar" would become independent brands and the parent Bajaj brand would take a back seat.
Imagine for Mr. Rajiv... "Bajaj" is actually his family name..!!
Needless to say, Mr. Bajaj's statement stunned everyone. The usual questions were: So would it be Pulsar Motorcycles? Discover Motorcycles? In fact even till date not many seasoned business analysts and journalists have exactly understood.. why..??
After going through many of the interviews which Mr. Bajaj has given to the (puzzled) media, let me try to put forward whatever that I have understood..
"Sonata - Fastrack - Titan - Xylys"
An Indian with an interest in wrist watches would be able to tell that, "Sonata" is a budget watch brand, "Fastrack" is a brand targeted at the youth, "Titan" is a mid-segment brand and "Xylys" is a luxury watch brand.
It also shouldn't be a surprise to the well informed that all four brands are actually Tata Products..!!
What Tata (Titan Industries to be precise) has created are four "sharply defined brands which are not only segmented in terms of pricing but also in terms of brand identity.
Sharply differentiated brands makes it simpler for the consumer to recall the brand..
Fastrack was initially launched as a sub-brand of Titan, but now has become an independent brand on its own and venturing not just in watches targeted at youth but also into sunglasses and bags. Fastrack even has it's own independent chain of outlets spread across the country.
Sonata was launched with the tagline "Sonata from Titan", but later it was realized that the budget priced Sonata was affecting the premium image of Titan. Therefore the Titan tag was dropped from Sonata's promotions.
For the Xylys brand, which was launched as a luxury watch, Tata did not use the Titan brand but went ahead with the tag "Swiss Made".
Even the websites dedicated for these brands have been given exclusive treatments. Check out: www.TitanWorld.Com, www.Fastrack.In, www.XylysWatches.Com
"For Bajaj it's not just Pulsar & Discover but: Boxer - Discover - Pulsar - KTM"
Although the Discover and Pulsar brand would be the main focus of Bajaj for India, there are two more brands Boxer and KTM in Bajaj's arsenal.
1. The "Boxer" is a utility motorcycle brand which is being exported mainly to African markets. There seems to be plans for a Boxer 150 for India as well.
2. The "Discover" as Mr. Bajaj puts it is the commuter motorcycle for "Ram", the simple straightforward guy who looks at functional aspects on his motorcycle
3. The "Pulsar" again according to Mr. Bajaj is for "Krishna" the mischievous guy who would also like to have a bit of fun while commuting
4. The "KTM" brand will obviously be the premium range of motorcycles not only for India, but also for developed markets (Bajaj currently owns 38% stake in KTM).
Just as Tata has put (for its watch business) the product brands at the front and the parent brand at the background, even Mr. Bajaj is embarking on a similar strategy.
"The power of sharply differentiated brands"
If the "Sonata" is still sold as "Sonata from Titan", what are the chances that a loaded guy who is out there to make an affluent style statement would buy a "Titan branded Xylys"?
Same would be the argument if a "Bajaj Boxer" were to co-exist with a "KTM-Bajaj 200 Duke". A "Tata" or "Bajaj" brand might appeal to a certain set of values but would not be a perfect fit everywhere. Sharply differentiated brands can have advantage of pricing power.
A sharply differentiated brand also makes it simpler for the consumer to remember and recall the brand. In short, such brands will always be at the top of his mind.
For example: If there are two doctors in your neighborhood, a General practitioner and the other an Orthopedic. Then in case of a joint pain, which doctor would be your first preference for a visit? It's basically common sense right?
"Things have already started to move"
1. Communication: The brand transformation has already started. The latest communication in the form of TV Commercials or Print Advertisements, the product brands Discover & Pulsar as being addressed as just that instead of the earlier "Bajaj Discover" or "Bajaj Pulsar".
2. Showrooms: There is news that even the showrooms will also soon start to wear a new look according to this new branding strategy. Bajaj has already appointed international design firms to work towards this.
3. Sales and service also needs to get equal attention: After sales service experience is an important aspect which according to me also needs to be addressed for the wholesome brand experience. Mr. Bajaj has stated that the KTMs for India will be priced twice that of the Pulsars.
In that case, as a prospective KTM customer, I would expect nothing less than twice better after sales service experience than a Pulsar owner.
Investing in the future..
For many among us, the brand name "Bajaj" is close to our hearts and something which we find it hard to let go just because our childhood memories also include a "Bajaj" scooter in our family. But then just imagine, for Mr. Rajiv Bajaj, it is his family name..!! Something that he has decided to relegate discreetly into the background..!!
The full effect of this new branding strategy for Bajaj will definitely take some time, say from 5 to 10 years. But as I see it, by embanking on this new branding strategy, Mr. Rajiv Bajaj is investing in the future.
I am convinced by Mr. Bajaj's branding stategy, what about you?
P.S: Interestingly post the split with Honda, even Hero seems to be keen to follow Mr. Bajaj's strategy now (read more here).

Stanford Baseball Loses To Arizona State, 6-5
April 1, 2001
Tempe, AZ -- #6 Arizona State (21-9-1, 4-5 Pac-10) snapped top-ranked Stanford's 10-game win streak and sent the Cardinal (24-6, 5-1 Pac-10) to its first Pac-10 defeat of the season with a 6-5 victory on Sunday at Packard Stadium.
The 10-game win streak had been Stanford's longest since the club won 11 in a row from May 16 - June 14, 1999. The Cardinal has still won 22 of its last 25 games overall. Arizona State snapped a four-game losing streak and extended its string of games in which it has scored to 348, one shy of the all-time NCAA record of 349 held by Coastal Carolina.
ASU snapped a 4-4 tie with a two-out rally in the bottom of the fifth that culminated with Mel Stocker's RBI single up the middle to score Dennis Wyrick. The Sun Devils added an insurance run in the bottom of the seventh inning on an RBI single by Wyrick to score Jeff Phelps, who was hit by Hudgins to lead off the inning.
Carlos Quentin pulled Stanford to within 6-5 when he hit a solo home run to lead off the top of the eighth inning, his fourth longball of the season. The Cardinal had the tying run in scoring position later in the inning. Andy Topham reached on an error after Quentin's home run and then stole second base with two outs before reliever Drew Friedberg retired pinch-hitter Brian Hall on a fly out to center field.
The Cardinal went down in order in the top of the ninth inning.
Arizona State jumped on the scoreboard early with a two-run homer by Casey Myers to give the Sun Devils their first lead of the series.
Stanford picked up a run in the top of the fourth inning on an RBI single by Topham. Stanford loaded the bases with one out and a run already in off ASU starter Ryan Schroyer. Bryce Kartler relieved Schroyer to retire Sam Fuld on a fielders choice and Jonny Ash on a ground out to get the Sun Devils out of the jam.
Arizona State then extended its lead by putting up two runs in the bottom of the fourth frame. Dennis Wyrick and Rod Allen hit back-to-back doubles to lead off the inning, giving the Sun Devils a 3-1 advantage. Stanford starter Tim Cunningham was removed with one out in the inning after walking Chris Duffy. John Hudgins relieved Cunningham and hit Jonah Martin to load the bases.
Allen then scored ASU's second run of the inning when he raced home on a foul out by Myers to Stanford first baseman Arik VanZandt deep behind first base. Hudgins retired Brooks Conrad on a fly ball to Carlos Quentin in right field to get out of the inning.
Stanford tied the game at 4-4 by scoring three times in the top of the fifth inning. Ryan Garko led off the inning with a single and moved to third on a one-out base single by Arik VanZandt, his first base hit of the series. Jason VanMeetren doubled to left center to score Garko.
VanZandt came all the way around to score on the play when Duffy failed to come up with the ball cleanly in centerfield and was charged with an error. VanZandt moved to third base on a single by Quentin and scored on Topham's fielders choice.
Andy Torres (8-3) earned the win for Arizona State, limiting the Cardinal to one run and one hit in 3.0 innings of relief. Drew Friedberg pitched the final 1.2 innings for his first save of the season.
Stanford reliever John Hudgins (1-4) took the loss as he was touched for two runs and three hits of relief.Myers (3-4, HR, 3 RBI), Allen (3-4, 2B, RBI) and Wyrick (2-2, 2B, RBI) led ASU's offensive attack.
Quentin (2-3, HR, RBI) was the only Cardinal with more than one hit. Topham had a pair of RBI. Both players extended their career-high hitting streaks to 10 games.
Stanford will play a non-conference game versus San Jose State at Municipal Stadium on Tuesday (7 pm) before hosting UCLA in a Pac-10 series at Sunken Diamond next Friday-Sunday, April 6-8 (6 pm, 1 pm, 1 pm).

How To Bring Characters To Life In The Writing Process
You've got your story. You've built your world. All the pieces are falling into place. Now, all that's left to do is create your characters, but it's not as simple as choosing a name and moving forward. You have to create each character's personality and background story — you have to make them real. But, how do you bring a character to life? The choices you make for your character will make or break a story, and sometimes they even change it.
Visual Appearance
I always begin with how the character looks visually. This can include ethnicity, hair and eye color, clothing style, etc. Most of the time I have a pre-imagined vision of each character, and then I scour the internet in search of a picture that best represents the image in my head. Sometimes, I don't even have a clear idea of what they look like until I do the research. Other times, the image in my head is so detailed I get frustrated that I can't find anyone that looks like them. There have been occasions where I have no idea what they look like, so I look at images of people until I do — Pinterest can really be your best friend here.
Names can either be extremely important, or just another word in the script. For example, I have one story that's based off of Arthurian lore, so I gave all the main characters names with the same meaning as their Arthurian counterpart. The Arthur character is named Brennan, which means brave, just like Arthur. Another character I've created is called Guardian Erela, which means Angel. So in a way she is called Guardian Angel. Other times I've chosen a name and then came up with a meaning for it. Here's an example: Khloe Marsh. Her whole life has been spent in orphanages and foster care and she never knew her real name. Then one day she gets to legally change it to something she chose. Although Khloe is just a name she liked, the real significance lies with the name Marsh. To her, a marsh is an undesirable place. Just like her. Although she believes that one day she will be wanted and loved, and on that day her name will change. Meaning that one day she will get married and take on her husband's name. I did not plan this when I named her. It just happened.
A character's background affects how they act. When I'm choosing their traits, I'm thinking about their background.
Backstory and Personality
I was going to make both of these aspects into their own points, but they're so hand in hand that one can't be mentioned before the other. A character's background affects how they act. When I'm choosing their traits, I'm thinking about their background. Usually what I do is I find a long list of positive, neutral, and negative personality traits. Then I go through each word and choose which ones I believe fit the character I want to create. As I'm doing this, little bits and pieces of their past just start forming. Sometimes as things their parents have told them or dramatic events that have happened. This allows me to see how they got this particular trait. Don't make your character too perfect. If you see that their positive list is longer than their negative one, then go back through and balance their personality out. Maybe it's gonna be a good trait that you really wanted them to have but isn't really necessary or a bad one that you were afraid to give them because it might make them a terrible person. The thing is, we all have negative traits that we don't like about ourselves. Make it a goal of theirs to overcome it.
Once you get these three steps out of the way, things usually start falling into place. From here you can easily figure out their desires, hobbies, and interests. If you ever run into any difficulties, don't be afraid to look elsewhere for inspiration. Get help from the internet or base some details off people that you know. Creating a character is fun. It's almost like actually getting to create a human being that acts how you want them to act.

THE MAN, THE MYTH, THE LEGEND… THE KING OF NJ NIGHTLIFE: Art WolfarthAKA Bacar di Ardi
How did you get the name Bacardi Ardi?
I was working as a bar manager and bartender at the
Biltmore Hotel in Coral Cables, Florida. We were hosting a
party for the Bacardi Family of the famed rum makers. I was
doing a little display, mixing flaming liquor from one glass
to another and made an impression on the two Bacardi
Brothers and owners Tito and Jose. They asked what was
the flaming liquor I used and what my name was. I told
them my name was Artie and the rum was Bacardi. Tito said
great job Bacardi Ardi and the name stuck with me by the
other bartenders who continued to call me Bacardi Ardi for
the next 3 years. When I came to New Jersey I was DJing an
outside bar and the owner said, "Do you have a nick name?"
and I said Bacardi Ardi. He said, "That's great for an outdoor
Dj! That's your new stage name."
You've been an MC and host
to some of the most notorious
nightlife events in Jersey
history. How many years has it
been and what club stands out
the most to you?
I finished school in 1984 majoring
in marketing, promotions, and
entertainment productions. My
first real job was a promotional asstiant at Z-100. I worked there from 1985 until 1987. Later
I moved to Miami and became a bartender. One night I was
forced to fill in for a drunk MC when the owner found out I
worked for a NY radio Station. That night I was turned into
an MC and was one ever since. As far as my favorite club I
would say I really enjoyed working for Bar Anticipation now
on my 21st year. Also, Club Abyss, 8 years and Poor Billy's
Sports Café, 14 years.
How has the club scene changed since you first began?
Back in the day the scene was a mixture or dance music
and rock bands. All the music was an open format. A little
of everything. Then around the mid 90's it went to fewer
bands and more high energy dance. Today the scene is
mostly small lounges with hardly any bands.
How would you describe the club scene today?
Today the scene is mostly small lounges with hardly any
bands. The scene has turned in a small room of non-stop
hip hop with a few energy dance songs mixed in. The scene
mostly has changed into small eating lounges with some
dance and mostly hip hop performances. DJ's are afraid
to mix formats or talk on the mic and bars owners are
not willing to invest in "The guest experience." Plus legal
liability with the consumption of liquor has transformed the
dollar to be spent on food. Its hard to get a cover charge
since "the experience" is no longer there. And social media
and the use of text messaging has transformed the scene
as well. People rather text friends not in their presence
then to engage into conversations with complete strangers
standing next to them. Social media pulls people into many
different directions. Years ago you would go to a club and
wait for people to show up. Today within 20 minutes people
are posting photos or texting others for their thoughts.
People will run out without waiting for the room to build. A
possibly reason for the demise of the big clubs.
Many have come and gone over
the years. What is the secret
behind your popularity?
No real secret. I work harder
then most. My changing
concepts, my ability to
change with the times,
being on the forefront with
new ideas, gimmicks, and
homemade contraptions
keep me working. I have
a great understanding
of how an operation works and what a crowd wants. Here is the secret:
Shhhh! The operation wants money
and the crowd wants a memory.
Give them both what they want
and you are successful.
You have been a part of a lot of
popular afternoon and evening
events. I think the Rubber Ducky
races are one of the wildest. Why
do you people love Rubber Ducky
races so much?
In the past I have been involved with
Velcro Jumping, Sumo Wrestling and
body shots contest. Rubber Ducky
Races are a concept that I created and seem to be the new
thing because they are fun to watch and easy to participate
in without any real exertion on the contestants part. Winning
a $1,000 cash prize doesn't hurt
either, and how can you not like
a little rubber ducky.
Your name has been great to
Bacardi Rum. Has Bacardi
every said thank you or offered
you anything in return?
Nothing ever from Bacardi, In
fact when I went back to Z-100
to do some promos I had to
drop the name for radio and
use Art the Bartender while
doing call ins on sites.
How much longer can you continue to do what you do or
should we say, how much longer do you want to continue
to do what you do?
I'm getting up in age and will have to turn the reins over
to other MC's. But I hoping I can continue to provide
consultant and promotional objectives to up and coming
establishments and to MC's in the future. My
days are surly numbered.
Name the top New Jersey
nightclubs of all time?
Hard to say. I have worked so many
great places that have allowed me
to excel in what I do. However I will
mention these locations because of
what they have accomplished. Club Abyss: For their
continued efforts of bring top
entertainment, celebrities, the
days best style, lighting, sound
and fads into the middle of
New Jersey for almost 20
Poor Billy's: At the time
of its inception it was a
premier sports bar and
restaurant in the country.
It offered something for
everyone. It had 5 extremely busy
days of the week. Hardly something that could be
done now.
Bar Anticipation: A location that brings thousands of people
a week to one single location can't go unnoticed. Always
adding space and different appeals to so many different
people . They have allowed
me to expand on my ideas and
concepts for 20 years
Rise In Lodi: Owner Eugene, time
and time again has stood out
and a major player in the NJ club
scene. His ideas, involvement
and consent commitment to the
market has kept him going 20
years plus .
Joey Harrison's: Joey Barcelona
and staff were the absolute best.
They were always taking care of
their guest and staff to the extreme. Hence why so many
people stayed with them for so many years. A great
place to work and enjoy the day off. Always providing top
entertainment in every field of the music spectrum. Sandy
killed the dream.
Finally, how would you like to
be remembered when the day
comes for the party to end?º
That I was an experience. That
I showed people a good time,
a memorable moment, and a
lasting impression. After all
its all about the show! I hope
someday someone else will
do the same for myself and
my fellow patrons .

I was on my way to the party when Margo called me.
"Hey gurl!"
"What up?" I asked
"You coming to the party?"
"Yeah yeah, on my way."
"What the hell you answering the phone for??"
"Why are you calling me when you think I might be on my way to the party?" There was silence on the line. "I thought so. I'll be there soon. Love ya!"
"Good, just hurry, Jacob is here!" She hung up her line. I continued to drive.
I arrived on Margo's street and struggled to find a parking space. I was super excited to finally get a chance to hang out with Jacob. We had talked a little in class everyday and I felt like he was the perfect man for me.
-Three Days Later-
"Hey Margo, thanks for being such a good friend to Niccole. It really means a lot to me that you're helping with all of the arrangements." I could see my mother sitting in the living room on the phone with Margo.
"No problem, she was a great friend to me I just wish she hadn't gotten into that accident. We were all pretty devastated by the news. I'm so sorry Ms. B."
"Not your fault Margo, she did everything she could to avoid the pile up on the highway the police said."
"Did they say what happened to the drunk driver who caused it?"
"Minor bruises I think.." Just then my mother coked up and couldn't say anymore.
"Oh. Uh. I'll be over this afternoon when class gets out to help you out with paperwork." Margo hung up the phone and my mother sat there in tears.
-Two Days Later-
"Niccole, hunny you've got to pay attention." I looked up. Stark white room with all white furniture and a lady sitting in a light blue skirt and white shirt.
"Sorry, just thinking"
"Life on Earth is pretty great, I almost remember it sometimes. You'll have plenty of time to reminisce about it later. They aren't sending you to the workforce like they did to me."
"Where are they sending me?"
"You lucky gal, get to spend your next lifetime with your soulmate."
"Jacob is here too? But he wasn't at the party like I was…he never showed up."
"Jacob? Let me look in your file." The lady made a perfect secretary as she pulled out the manila envelope. She looked at what seemed to be a blank page. "Ha ha no dear. He wasn't at the party." She laughed as if she knew I had the biggest crush on him. She read further, the look of laughter fell from her face. "Oh my. Well, he wasn't at the party, but he was a part of your crash."
"Oh my god, is he okay? Did he die like me? Where is he? Is he my soul mate??"
"He was the one who caused it."
"But they said it was a drunk driver…"
"Yup. Well no more use talking about it now. You're about to meet your soul mate. Your one true love."
"Why didn't you get to meet yours"
"I already had him on Earth. When you die, you have some options. Well so to say… you don't get to choose them, but there's paths to take. The ones who lived a great life and were noble to the people get to be a part of the Great Table of the Angels. The ones who led a terrible life go to the guy downstairs and spend their time doing chores until they've made up for lost time. Then you have the ones in the middle like you and I. I led a great life in the waking world but wasn't a noble peace prize winner or anything. So they put me in an area that I excelled at. You didn't even finish college yet. You're young and still could have led a great life, so you're getting a second chance. You're meeting your soulmate. The person you were meant to be with forever." She looks down at the file with the blank page. "Lucky for you, he too has past on. Some people have to wait years."
"Oh wow… so how does this work? We meet and float around in heaven.. or… what?"
She chuckles. "Not quite. Beyond the gates is a world like the one on Earth. Though it has everything you want in it. Everything you dreamed about is now obtainable. There is no money involved because that was just a silly invention anyway. Simply think what you wish for and it appears. Not always instantaneously, but it will be there. When you meet your soulmate you'll have the chance to go on some dates and get to know each other. You'll probably create a house together get a dog and so on. It's pretty easy. So that's about all I have for you. Just enter through those gates and he'll be right there waiting for you." She gestures to the left where appears big golden gates. I stand up and walk towards them as they open.
"Wait, I…" I turn back and everything that was there, including the lady is now gone. So I turn back towards the gates and step through.
There's a big blue sky with bright green grass and trees for as far as I can see.
"Hey, Niccole!" I hear a young voice from behind one of the trees. I walk towards it.
"Uh, hello?" Out steps a little boy about ten years old. "Wayne?"
"Yup, it's me!"
"You're my soulmate?" I knew Wayne in elementary school. He was a few years older than me, and died in a car crash. I had a crush on him and was saddened by the news even though I was so young.
"I'm just as shocked as you!"
"But…I'm nineteen.. how is this going to work?"
"No you're not." Wayne says with a smile on his face. He pulls out a mirror and shows me.
"I'm young again!"
"You must be starting over from where we first met."
"Woah, so what now?"
"We live the rest of our afterlife together." Wayne takes a hold of my hand and we start walking through the trees.

Gillian Patterson, Technical Category Buyer – Packaging at Genius commented 'We are delighted with our relationship with Macpac – we have a packaging designer and manufacturer that understands our business, how we fit in our market and our environmental focus – they interpret our brief clearly and precisely and can deliver on time to budget and specification''.
It is surprising how few companies collaborate with packaging designers to create truly sustainable packaging preferring to buy from a catalogue of homogenized pieces. Are they really putting sustainability and the environment at the heart of their business?
Macpac designs and manufacturers packaging at its Stockport, Cheshire plant. Established for over 40 years it is one of the few wholly independent packaging manufacturers that offers both design and production capabilities under one roof for short or long runs.
If you feel we could help you with your thermoformed packaging requirements whether its packaging for a new product or a modification to an existing design we would love to hear from you.
Call us on 0161 442 1642 for an initial chat. Alternatively email us at [email protected]

HW: Complete the Barbie Bungee packet tonight.
Barbie Bungee
Students performed the Barbie Bungee experiment. They collected data on how for Barbie would fall given a certain number of rubberbands (attached to her feet). Students used the TI-Nspire to analyze this data and then use their regression equation to determine how many rubberbands necessary for Barbie to have a safe, yet thrilling drop from 400 cm.
HW: Complete the Barbie Bungee packet tonight.
Students used the TI-Nspire graphing calculators as we entered and examined data from 4 problems together. Students used the rest of class to complete 3 problems on their own,
The Wave Lab was collected today.
HW: Complete the WS 2.5 from yesterday and today WS 2.5 Practice & Vocabulary
Students completed a warm-up question on calculating slope and writing the equation of a line in slope-intercept form. Then we used the TI-Nspire calculators to make a scatterplot of our Wave data. We also used the calculator to generate regression equation. Students will use that equation to answer the rest of the Wave Lab questions. This is due tomorrow.
We also used the calculator to evaluate other data tables.
HW: Answer the rest of the Wave Lab questions
2.5 The Wave Lab
Students completed a 6 question review from section 2.3. We went over that in class. Students in 7th hour received their quizzes back. Then we gathered our own data to analyze in The Wave Lab. We used the TI-Nspire calculators to help us analyze the data.
HW: Complete WS Test Prep 2.4 (the back side of 2.3)
Star Math Testing
Students used the class time to complete their Star Math Testing. After they were finished they had time to complete their quiz from yesterday.
Quiz 2.3 - 2.4, Graph match up
During the first half of class students received slope-intercept form with a short video. Then they worked in groups of 3 to match a graph with its equation, identify its slope & y-intercept, match its table of values & its verbal description. Then students completed their quiz 2.3 - 2.4.
Tomorrow's class will be in computer lab D12C.
HW: Complete book assignment 2.4 if you have not done so.

Dalla Costa: Signs of life from NBL
The patient is still in serious condition.
But the good news is the patient is stable.
That's a heck of a lot better than being critical with little hope of recovery, a status that the National Basketball League of Canada faced not that long ago.
The NBL is fighting the good fight. Despite long odds on the survival of several of its franchises, they continue to plow ahead with the hope that surviving another year will somehow bring the league closer to brand recognition.
And that somehow a leadership vacuum at the top that still prevents the league from moving forward, is filled.
But the owners are tenacious if nothing else and tenacity often leads to success more often than talent does.
They recognize they are fighting for their lives, in most cases, fighting that battle on their own and, as time progresses, winning more of those battles.
Thomas Edison said that "many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up."
Call it a feeling; call it wishful thinking; call it hope; call it what you will, but there are signs that while the league could easily be pushed over the ledge, it could just as easily find a soft landing spot and survive.
Success may be too strong a word right now for the NBL, but there appears to be an appetite for the product.
Hope is a good thing, as Andy Dufresne said in The Shawshank Redemption. There were times when it appeared Dufresne had more hope than the NBL.
Not now.
The NBL is close to attracting another franchise. A couple of businessmen from the Niagara Falls-St. Catharines area, who came close to joining the league last year, are hoping to give it another go. That area should be ideal for basketball and the potential new owners are aggressive and enthusiastic.
There's talk of Hamilton looking at a team as well. That group was also courted by former Raptors coach Butch Carter for his Canadian league and opted for the NBL.
Two franchises were in trouble in terms of ownership at the start of the season.
The Saint John Mill Rats went to community ownership and now appear set for the immediate future. The Moncton Miracles are being run by the league because they have no owner, but reports indicate there is someone interested in taking over the franchise. An announcement may not be long in coming.
Moncton has always supported the NBL. Even without an owner the team has averaged 1,361 fans a game for nine home dates a real testament to how hard former owner Kim Blanco worked to establish the team in the community.
Considering those circumstances, the Atlantic teams are doing good work in building and marketing.
The story in attendance continues to be the London Lightning. The franchise is averaging 5,291 fans a game over 11 dates. The Lightning has increased their attendance by more than 1,000 fans a year.
But it's more than just attendance. The Lightning continues to work behind the scenes to keep the league viable with owner Vito Frijia doing work that really should be done by the league's front office.
Love them or hate them, the Lightning is the league's most visible franchise and the one that sells what the NBL could be.
The other attendance figures may not be head turning but are sustainable. Halifax is averaging 2,751 over eight dates; Saint John Mill Rats 1,880 over eight games; the Island Storm at 1,762 over eight dates; and Windsor Express average 1,009 over 10 games. Complete attendance figures for Brampton and Mississauga aren't available but they are ugly. It's
fortunate the owners of the two franchises have tons of cash. The problem is optics. With two franchises on the outskirts of Toronto drawing a handful of fans, the optics aren't good.
It's all manageable though especially if the NBL can expand its base in southern Ontario outside of Toronto.
It would be even better if the league found someone who could close the deal with national sponsors and find a source of income other than expansion fees. In other words, work as hard as the owners work.
It would move the patient's recovery along a lot more speedily.

Minimal makeup means different things to different people. To me it's my routine on those days when I wake up late, exhausted, grouchy, and in a time crunch. Yes, there have been those days before a neuro exam or two where I have just rolled out of bed and staggered to class without a trace of makeup on, but those are special exceptions. Usually I stick to my "essentials" pictured above if I'm in a pinch.
On these minimalistic days I will stick with a base with a light coverage, such as the Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm (reviewed here), and quickly blend all over the face. To cover the pesky undereye circles my sleepless night has so kindly given me, I dab some Bobbi Brown Corrector in Light Bisque onto my ring fingers and tap underneath my eyes, magically concealing unsightly discoloration. Sometimes I just don't feel like dealing wtih eyeshadow but feel like my eyes still need a bit of a pop so I swipe this Sephora Prisma Chrome Eyeshadow in Shimmery Sand on my lid with a finger and blend into the crease. This product has been discontinued, which is a shame since this is the perfect color for my "no makeup makeup" look: a shimmery sheen of golden delight that is similar enough to my natural lid color to seem subtle yet still radiant. To tight-line and line my upper lash line I always use my Stila Stay All Day Waterproof Liquid Eye Liner (reviewed here), and my favorite mascara is Maybelline the Falsies Flared Waterproof. On my waterline I used my nude eyeliner trick and on the bottom lash line, my NYX Slide On Pencil in Brown Perfection for subtle definition. To frame my face I filled in my brows as usual with the NYX Auto Eyebrow Pencil in Charcoal and Benefit Instant Brow in Medium. Last but not least I dabbed on some of my favorite neutral blush: Tarte Amazonian Clay 12-Hour Blush in Exposed. This pinky-brown nude is perfect for every day as it is not only matte, but leaves your cheeks looking naturally flushed for the entire day.
I would say that the most important features to highlight in minimal makeup would be the skin, eyelashes, and brows. It's amazing how little makeup you can get away with if your skin looks great. Just a little concealer under the eyes and on red spots alone can make you look a thousand times more put together. I would also recommend wearing a natural blush – it brightens the face and can make you look more alive and healthy. A girl should never skimp on the lashes either! Mascara is not only one of the most used beauty products out there but is one of the most effective in transforming a face. I've always been jealous of those girls who only needs an eyelash curler and mascara (sadly that is not me) to define her eyes. One last feature that should always be attended to (in my personal opinion) is brows. A well defined brow gives the face structure and enhances the rest of the facial features. If you're not a fan of filling them in, they should at least be combed through!
What are your minimal makeup essentials?

Every year good films show at the Toronto Film festival that never open anywhere near you. This year some good films played that may never open anywhere, even if you live in Toronto--or New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Seattle, Austin or upstairs over a Landmark Theater multiplex. Toronto is traditionally a lively marketplace for the purchase of film rights for new non-studio product: Indies, docs, foreign films. This year Harvey Weinstein paid $1 million for "A Single Man," and that was that. One sale, one movie, one million -- probably as little as Harvey has paid for a movie in some time.
Stands at yellow, rising toward orange
The makers of independent films don't have to send to learn for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for them. The bottom fell out of the market. That doesn't mean there were no other offers, but it means there were none that the sellers felt able to accept. It shows a collapse of confidence in the prospects of independent film distribution.
Don't take my word for it. Listen to Anne Thompson, who always knows what she's talking about. In her blog Thompson on Hollywood, she leads: "The old independent market is over." She quotes the producer Jonathan Dana: "It's a massacre. It's the end of funny money."
Thompson names a few of the films going home without deals, and it's depressing:
Few directors have left a more distinctive or influential body of work than John Hughes. The creator of the modern American teenager film, who died Thursday in New York, made a group of films that are still watched and quoted today.
TELLURIDE, Colo. -- It's a combination of a film festival and a ski weekend, greatly improved by the absence of snow. Moviegoers at this year's 26th Telluride Film Festival can take the ski lift to the top of the mountain, but what they find there is a little unexpected: the Chuck Jones Cinema, named for the animator who brought Bugs Bunny and Wile E. Coyote to life.
PARK CITY, Utah How long has it been since I saw a film that was really scary, instead of just going through the motions of scary? Most horror films are merely exercises in ritualized surprise, but a low-budget film titled "The Blair Witch Project" shook up Sundance Film Festival audiences with its gathering sense of menace.
PARK CITY, Utah The future of the American film industry begins its annual convention here today, at the Sundance Film Festival. For the next 10 days, new independent films and documentaries will unspool all over town, in every possible performance space: Wherever two or three gather together, they're probably looking at a movie.

All of a sudden, there are movies about teenagers who are ordinary kids. They come as such a relief after all the movies about teenagers who are killers, victims, lust-crazed sex fiends, hookers, punks, sluts and goons. There for a while it looked like half the new teenage movies were going to be ripoffs of two of the sleaziest recent trendsetters at the box office, "Porky's" and "Friday the 13th." Teenagers in those movies had fairly limited options: They could look through peepholes into the girls' shower room, or they could get disemboweled by a faceless monster.

I started today with a run. I haven't run in a few weeks due to the damage I did to my shoulder during the final 150m of the Royal Park's Half-Marathon in October. It still hurts when I run and now, when I walk briskly. So I made an appointment with my GP before Christmas and have an MRI scan booked in for tomorrow.
That said, the pain is annoying but not crippling. Like a toothache. And I really needed to do something to begin a fight-back against my Christmas over-indulgence. I planned a quick 5km around the neighborhood but ended up running over 13km. The sun was out and the streets were quiet, making it easy to just…keep going.
I completed my usual run, keeping it to a manageable pace – nothing like my runs pre-Royal Parks. And as I've basically given up on the Nike running app due to its disastrous re-design and tendency to crash, I used the Apple Fitness functionality built into my Apple Watch and iPhone. It was idiot-proof – one click on my watch to start and one to stop.
I did miss the audio prompts updating me on pace and distance, but the watch 'clicks' as you pass each kilometre and it's no great hardship to raise the watch to check pace visually. I'm not a professional athlete, so it doesn't need to be accurate down to the inch, or even metre, if I'm honest. I just want to have some way of tracking my runs, taking the outputs and combining them with other info in other apps.
This means the data from the fitness app informs what's in 'My Fitness Pal' and vice versa. This includes the terrible, terrible news from my Fitbit scales this morning that my weight has gone up 3 kilos over Christmas. I say that tongue in cheek, as it's not disastrous and actually gave me more motivation to make a change. And I completely understand where it's all come from: the non-stop consumption of calorific (yet delicious) Christmas treats.
I now stand (Hobbit-like) at 68.8 kilos. I'd like to get that back down to 60 kilos, a feat last achieved in the distant, distant past. But it's possible. Continue the runs, cut out the crap from my diet and generally move around more.
I think I need to plan a trip to Sitges to give me something specific to aim for! 😉

Compare the various fruit juice packaging containers to prove that the oxygen transmittance of the container directly affects the browning of the fruit juice and vitamin C, low oxygen transmittance of metal cans, glass and foil laminated layers, cartons of vitamin C preservation and the best iron cans.
Second, Tinplate has a non-transparent In addition to causing deterioration in food, light can also cause changes in protein and amino acids. And vitamin C is more susceptible to light exposure to other food components, resulting in a large loss. According to research and analysis shows that

Introduction Elegant Dress Up Party Themes
But are their merchandise the ideal choice for your website? Should you sign-up with this WordPress mainstay or continue your search? From the end of this article, you'll hopefully have everything you need to generate a well-thought-out, educated decision.Let's begin. Elegant Dress Up Party Themes
Elegant Topics are in operation for eight decades, also have served over 500,000 clients up to now. In the process, they've grown to a workforce of more than 50 workers working in many nations — a far cry from their humble beginnings working out of founder Nick Roach's school apartment.Elegant Themes currently offer 87 WordPress themes and five plugins. Access to each of their themes (including their flagship'Divi' theme — more about this below) and plugins will put you back $89 a year, which makes them quite competitively priced. If you're planning on using their products for several decades, however, it is actually their slightly pricier'Lifetime Accessibility' plan that is the very best value alternative, giving you access to all present and future products to get a one-time fee of $249. However, is Elegant Themes the ideal choice for your job? Let us find out.
WordPress Themes
Let us start looking at the various themes on offer, before continuing on to this plugins.As mentioned, signing up with Elegant Themes gives you access to 87 WordPress topics for the price of everything you could pay for just one motif elsewhere. But, there are really only two options to take into account. Since the advent of Divi at 2013, the focus of Elegant Themes was around making this the single greatest WordPress theme available. Extra followed soon afterwards, and together they've come to be the highlights of this Elegant Themes portfolio.
Divi is Elegant's flagship motif, and is really multipurpose, using the ability to make just about any type of website.From blogs and business homepages to ecommerce stores and all in between, Divi is undoubtedly a versatile site building tool.It's also excellent for new WordPress users looking to make customized websites without having to examine a single line of code. But this effective subject has also become a popular choice with professional web designers searching for a tool to create building sites for their customers more efficient.Some of the motives experienced and inexperienced web designers alike choose Divi are its own useful pair of high quality templates and the highly effective drag-and-drop builder tool. Loading up among those Divi designs provides you with a fast way to begin your site, and the new-and-improved Divi Builder may be used to personalize these designs through an intuitive front-end drag-and-drop user interface. Creating your custom layouts from scratch is not a problem either with Divi.No matter what your skill level, Divi does a good job of democratizing internet design. Those new to WordPress may use the Divi layouts, together with the builder's point-and-click port to make custom webpage designs. More experienced designers can do what they've always done, only much faster.Another feature of this theme that is well worth mentioning is your Divi Leads tool. Divi Leads lets you run split testing experiments on your site's content and design. If you have ever wondered which headline or color scheme your customers will best respond to, then Divi Leads removes the guesswork.Divi Leads makes it easy to display multiple variants of your website and its content, so that you can just sit back and wait for the results. If you have to create websites that convert against their aims –whether for yourself or to your clients — Divi Leads will be an invaluable addition to your toolkit.The only real drawback to Divi compared with Avada along with another best-selling multipurpose themes is the absence of complete site demos. Therefore, despite not being able to import an whole site in your WordPress installation, you will not be lacking new layouts for your website's pages.Overall, Divi is a great choice for creatives who'd prefer to build a custom WordPress website regardless of their technical skills.

The Extra theme (view live presentation ) was launched after Divi, and contains many of its finest characteristics. Using this homepage design gives you the ability to display your finest or most recent articles in a fashionable grid format. It's possible to use article carousels, tabbed regions, mini-article sliders, and custom widgets to display previews of your content.Extra also includes an image-focused homepage layout which uses the featured images from the articles to draw focus on your articles. The plan of this theme is focused on enticing your customers to click through to more of your articles.As Extra comprises the powerful Divi Builder tool, you are able to customize any of the theme's templates via a front end drag-and-drop interface. Also, but you can use the builder and its own library of modules to create customized layouts for every article you publish on your website. If you'd like your blog or online magazine to coordinate with the demonstration quality of leading news media websites, you finally have a potent tool that can help.With Extra and the Divi Builder, you can design custom page layouts that overlay pictures with text, include photo collages, use pull quotes, feature multiple columns, and also add other tried-and-tested content elements to improve your site from a fundamental blog to some professional-looking online publication.Even in case you don't need to utilize the incorporated Divi Builder, Extra is still a fantastic choice for bloggers and online magazine websites. The library of templates makes it effortless to add significant pages to your website with hardly any work. Using writer, timeline, portfolio, and contact webpage templates contained, you can spare yourself a great deal of time when setting up your website.Extra may also be used to make an ecommerce shop with WordPress, due to its entire support for the WooCommerce plugin. If you want to build an online store or just add physical or digital products to your magazine or blog, Extra is greater than up to the task.While Elegant Themes made Divi together with the goal of making it the best theme for any WordPress website, Extra was created to be the ideal theme for bloggers and internet books. They've definitely done a good job, and Extra is a competitive theme that any blogger or magazine-style website owner should think about. Elegant Dress Up Party Themes
While Divi, and, to a lesser extent, Extra, are multipurpose topics that may be used to create any type of website, the other topics are more focused on a particular kind of project. |} It's possible you may find a theme from the Elegant Themes back catalog that's right for your site. But in the event that you really need to take advantage of what Elegant Themes must offer and has been working on for the past few years, you should only consider the Divi and Extra themes out of their collection.While signing up using Elegant Themes gets you access to Divi, one of the best WordPress themes around, and the impressive Extra magazine theme, don't get too excited about the other 85 alternatives. However, as we'll see in another section of this Elegant Themes review, there are far more reasons to choose this business than simply their flagship WordPress topics.
The Elegant Themes WordPress Plugins
As stated earlier in this review, the group supporting Divi and Extra also have generated a number of high-quality WordPress plugins. By joining Elegant Themes on each the mid-level $89 Developer program or the top tier $249 Lifetime accessibility program, you get access to all of these plugins.
Let us have a look.
The Divi Builder plugin relies on the webpage builder tool that is incorporated into the Divi and Extra topics. |} The Divi Builder that's found in the latest edition of the Divi and Extra topics includes a back-end user interface. However, this upgrade has not been applied to the Divi Builder plugin yet (it will be added later on ). As it is a standalone plugin, you may take advantage of this version of this Divi Builder using any WordPress theme.The Divi Builder plugin can still be used to create custom page layouts, albeit through a back-end builder interface. Through this interface, you can create innovative page designs featuring several rows and columns. Any of the 46 customizable content modules could be added into your layouts, together with the capability to drag and drop them to position.Other useful attributes of the Divi Builder plugin have the capacity to quickly replicate any page element, copying and pasting within the builder, unlimited undos and redos, and an easy way to add custom CSS to your pages.The Divi Builder plugin now makes it effortless to save any layout, part, or module into your library for reuse elsewhere on your site. If you update any of these library products, you can selectively apply these changes to every instance of the item during your site.Even if you're not using a theme from Elegant Themes, you should be able to utilize Divi Builder to customize your WordPress website. Therefore, if you'd rather use a minimal theme (such as the ones produced by StudioPress instead of Divi) but you still need the capability to create custom designs for your articles, then the Divi Builder plugin may be a fantastic choice.Divi Builder contrasts favorably to the other drag-and-drop builder plugins for WordPress. However, until the live front-end editor is added to the plugin, there are more user friendly WordPress site builder plugins out there. Elegant Dress Up Party Themes

Custom triggers may also be employed to control the form's visibility, and more.Through that the Bloom form display preferences, you can specify where in your website each form will be more active. These choices include activating the form for your whole website, the home page, person posts and pages, and much more.

The Elegant Themes Community
With this kind of a large userbase, it is not surprising that a large ecosystem and community has built up around Elegant Themes and its own products. There are now a range of active Facebook groups, marketplaces selling kid themes, and blogs devoted to Divi. The Elegant Themes blog is one of the busiest WordPress websites. As well as publishing suggestions and tips for web designers and WordPress users, the site frequently shares brand new page designs and other extras for Divi users.
Elegant Themes Support
Some years ago, Elegant Topics had a bit of a reputation for providing less-than-stellar support to their clients. After checking into this and being a happy customer for a while now, I'm very happy to report that Elegant Themes seem to have resolved any issues that there might have been.Their flagship products are often updated and enhanced, and also the online documentation for their plugins and themes is extensive, including walkthrough videos and text. Those with an active Elegant Topics account can open a support ticket by posting a question in the support forums.As well as a General Questions sub-forum, each Elegant Themes merchandise has its own busy sub-forum. The Elegant Themes support forums have been staffed by a team of tech support agents, who, in my experience, respond to queries quickly and helpfully.
Divi is undoubtedly one of the very best and most common multi-purpose WordPress themes around. As you can buy Divi and Extra, along with 85 (admittedly increasingly outdated) other topics for only $89 (plus a handful of very helpful plugins), signing up with Elegant Themes represents great value for the money.The updated Divi Builder that is a core component of the Divi motif is also among the finest WordPress site builders available now. Everybody, from those new to making sites to experienced web designers, can benefit from the power of this Divi Builder. Since they're such elastic topics, there's a lot of creative freedom, which might be overwhelming — particularly if you don't have a clear vision for your site. The library of page templates has been created to a high quality, but there aren't any comprehensive site demos which you can import into your website in just a few clicks.If you'd rather have a theme built for a particular focus, like a business website or an online portfolio perhaps, you may actually be better off studying themes offered by a number of the other, more concentrated theme stores .However, if you're searching for a WordPress theme which can be used to create any type of site, subsequently Divi and Extra and their countless customization tools and settings are hard to beat. Throw in the remaining advantages of registering for Elegant Themes and you should have everything you need to make your WordPress site a success. Elegant Dress Up Party Themes

And the next day we were so excited to see both girls sing in their end of the year program. Honestly, (from past experiences) we weren't expecting to hear much singing. Mark and I were just hoping they would stay on stage long enough to get through their songs. But surprising, both girls sang their little hearts out. Ahhh, they're growing up. And oh, how it melted our hearts to see both of them up there singing sweetly as they looked right at us.

The Giza Pyramids, built to endure an eternity, have done just that. The monumental tombs are relics of Egypt's Old Kingdom era and were constructed some 4,500 years ago. Egypt's pharaohs expected to become gods in the afterlife. To prepare for the next world they erected temples to the gods and massive pyramid tombs for themselves—filled with all the things each ruler would need to guide and sustain himself in the next world. Pharaoh Khufu began the first Giza pyramid project, circa 2550 B.C. His Great Pyramid is the largest in Giza and towers some 481 feet (147 meters) above the plateau. Its estimated 2.3 million stone blocks each weigh an average of 2.5 to 15 tons. | Photography by © Jonas Hornehøj (@thefreedomcomplex) #earthofficial Caption by (@natgeo)
