It's always exciting when a company has the opportunity to premiere a new work. The world premiere of dance faculty member Kiesha Lalama-White's The Bench, presented by the Conservatory Dance Company, is no exception.
The Bench celebrates family and what makes us who we are. An unforgettably moving multimedia dance experience featuring a live orchestra, The Bench beautifully chronicles the journey of one couple from their first encounter to each significant moment thereafter as they experience the trials and triumphs of life.
The Bench is more than just a family experience: it's a family accomplishment as well. The piece was choreographed by Lalama-White and the music was composed by her cousin, accomplished jazz musician David Lalama. Another of Lalama-White's cousins, Grammy Award-winner Ralph Lalama, will play in the orchestra.
In addition to the live music, artist Michael Dickins has created intimate, telling images that are used as video projections to further the story. The original pieces are on display in the lobby of the theatre. The production also features a series of famous quotes that punctuate the work's particularly moving moments.
The strong family emphasis of the piece and the fact that it is a multimedia experience provides a large number of additional opportunities for The Bench, creating an adventure that began months before the show opened. A documentary was created at various stages of the production to chronicle how a production such as The Bench is developed. The videos were posted on a new microsite created specifically for the piece. The microsite also has additional information on the production, ticket information and is home of a contest where patrons can enter to win a weekend getaway package.
A Facebook fan page was also created for the show. The page includes the documentary videos, photos from rehearsal, and Kiesha's comments and thoughts throughout the production process.
Lalama-White will be featured on KDKA's Pittsburgh Today Live on Tuesday, Dec. 15. The show airs at 9 a.m.
The Bench opens at Point Park University's Pittsburgh Playhouse on Friday, Dec. 11. It runs Dec. 11 - 13 and 18 - 20. For more information, previews/reviews or to purchase tickets, visit www.pittsburghplayhouse.com or call 412-621-4445.

Models Own Beetlejuice was talked about with such passion from Nail Polish loving bloggers that I just had to purchase all 5 of the colours on launch. I can see why people love it so much…it's a gorgeous looking!
Each bottle contains four pearlescent colours mixed into one gleaming shade for an optimum high finish. Inspired by the beautiful wings of a beetle, this collection mimics the complex colour-shifting with flashes of vivid tones and ethereal hues giving a shimmering duo chrome finish.I find Models Own nail polish pretty standard in that I neither find it hard or easy to apply. It has a medium thick texture – for me the thinner a polish is, the easier I find it to use but I don't find the formula too gloopy.
The colours are really pretty and have that duochrome effect.
From left to right they are: Emerald Black, Golden Green, Pinky Brown, Aqua Violet, Purple Blue. I am sure nail bloggers can talk to you all day about these polishes, I just think they are kind of unusual and interesting to look at! Anyway Beetle Juice is one of my favourite childhood films – it's so grotesque so I thought I'd go through the film to see if I could find what these Models own colours have been inspired by.
Emerald Black – I struggled here. There are lots of greens in the film but I don't know they were were black-green. How about this:
Golders Green – that doorway. Would you go through?
Pinky Brown?
Aqua Violet?
I remember Winona from those old days, Heathers, Mermaids…she was cool back then.
Purple Blue – I struggled here…
I'm a bit disappointed actually; whilst the colours do look like a pretty beetle's shell, I wish they reminded me more of the actual film. What about Beetle Juice's horrible black and white suit? Winona's red wedding dress? That horrible desert?
Meh, that's just me nit picking.
Pretty pretty polishes:
See the – if you buy all 5 it's discounted by £7!
*I bought these

Hey there, moms! Are you sitting down? I sure do hope you're sitting down. Because when you hear about the results of this super high-tech, top-secret scientific study on kids and nutrition, heaven only knows what the shock might do to you! Truly, the way you feed your children could change forever.
Are you ready? Wait, wait -- let me set the scene for you:
Picture a team of doctors and researchers in white lab coats, Bunsen burners, beakers filled with fizzing, popping liquids of every color. (Every so often one of them starts to smoke menacingly.) There is some SERIOUS medical studying stuff going on up in here, y'all. At last, one of the scientists looks up from his microscope and shouts, "Eureka! I've found it! I've found the secret to making kids eat their vegetables!"
Can you guess?? The secret is …
Sugar!! Yes, it's true! Now we have scientific proof that dousing veggies in sugar makes children more likely to eat them all up.
You're not really all that shocked, I bet. Sorry to set you up like that, I just … DUH! Like, really?? Just a spoonful of freaking sugar makes the vegetables go down?!
More from The Stir: 13 Questionable Things We Do to Get Picky Eaters to Eat
No sh*t.
I'm really NOT oversimplifying here, either. This is exactly how the study was conducted:
Preschoolers who were served lightly sweetened vegetables (sprayed with a mist of sugar) at lunchtime ate more of the healthy foods compared to those who were served unsweetened vegetables.
Although the researchers tested other ways to mask the vegetables' bitterness, including various salts, plain sugar worked the best.
Maybe I'm being unfair. Perhaps there is some sort of take-home message here: If sugar spray makes veggies more tasty to tots, maybe a sweet (but not outrageously unhealthy) sauce would do the same. It might be worth dipping a couple of stalks of broccoli in some maple syrup or applesauce to find out. Or if your kid is like that adorable fibbing boy, maybe sprinkles are the way to go?
Would you spray veggies with sugar to get your kid to eat them?

(Hippophae rhamnoides) With plenty to recommend it, Sea Buckthorn is widely used for healing in Asia and Europe, where it is valued as a potent anti-oxidant, a source for Vitamin C and a healing oil. The attractive small tree or shrub, also called Seaberry, is likely the most widely grown, northern hardy, fruiting plant in the world, but most Americans have never heard of it! In Europe, the sour, flavorful fruit is sweetened and its orange-passion-fruit-like flavor makes fine sauces, jellies and a base for liqueurs. Blended with other fruits, it makes a delicious juice. The plants, native to the Russian Far East, are incredibly productive and a great choice for backyard fruit production! Narrow silver leaves and plentiful round, yellow-orange fruit cover the 6-10' tall, narrow, upright female forms. Give plants full sun and good drainage, and space them about 7' apart or 3-5' for a hedge. They are extremely hardy, to -50° F., disease resistant and easy to grow. Branches are used in floral displays, and commercial crops are harvested by cutting off entire fruit-laden branches. USDA Zones 3-9. It needs good drainage and full sun.

Slate Digital's Trigger Platinum is a package deal that includes their next-generation drum replacer VST/RTAS/AU plug-in, Trigger, as well as the virtual drum collection Steven Slate Drums SIGNATURE DRUMKITS Platinum Edition samples.
Trigger Advanced Drum Replacer
Slate Trigger is an exceptional way to take your drum sounds to the next level without fuss or hassle. With the virtual drum replacement plug-in's phase-accurate engine, extreme detail, natural response, multiple drum layers, and the professional Steven Slate Drum sample library that's included, you'll never have to worry about drums again.
Slate Trigger drum replacer plug-in has a phase-accurate multilayered triggering engine. This means that in one instance of the plug-in, you can seamlessly trigger multiple drum samples simultaneously such as a close mic sample, stereo overhead sample, and a stereo room mic samples. Or, mix many direct mic samples to develop your own custom unique drum sounds. This multichannel triggering functionality allows the user to recreate the sound of natural drums with real multitracked samples. Each sample layer has parameters for customization such as velocity and dynamic control, attack, sustain, release, and independent levels. Other features of the Slate Trigger drum plug-in include 2 detection modes, MIDI in/out, automation of detecting parameters, up to 127 different articulations per instrument, up to 127 velocity layers per instrument and up to 127 alternation hits per velocity layer, and a unique Leakage Suppression function.
Phase Accurate Triggering
When using Slate Trigger, you will hear tight, phase-accurate drum triggering without unwanted mistriggers, flamming, or phasing. Kick samples line up tight with the original kick drums, snare drum transients align perfectly, and tom fills come out exactly like the original tracks.
Leakage Suppression
The Slate Trigger drum replacer plug-in has the unique functionality to be set in a way that in can automatically be instructed to not trigger certain leakages on a drum track using its Leakage Suppression mode. Using the Leakage Suppression technology you can trigger a drum track with 100% accuracy even if this drum track has many loud bleeds from other drums.
Two Detecting Modes
Slate Trigger Platinum virtual drum plug-in comes with two detecting modes, Live and Accurate. Live mode is geared for live on-stage triggering and has a close-to-zero latency engine. Accurate mode is the professional studio setting, which enables Trigger's advanced engine to replicate the original drum track with the most precise detail and natural velocity response.
Signature Drumkits Platinum Edition
The Signature Drumkits Platinum from Steven Slate Drums is a drum suite that offers a comprehensive digital drum suite on the market, conquering all your digital drum needs with an RTAS VST AU and standalone MIDI plug-in, instant presets for all Roland V-Drum Modules, hundreds of easy to use MIDI grooves in Steven Slate's unique SONG form.
The Drum Samples
At the heart of any drum library are the actual samples themselves. Steven Slate has been called the master of drum sounds. In the early 2000's his original drum sample disc was in high demand amongst many top Hollywood producers and mixers. By 2006, when he publicly released his first official drum sample disc, his sounds could already be heard in many top billboard hits.
Steven has recorded only the best drums, all tuned to perfection for this virtual instrument and sample collection. Every drum and cymbal has been recorded first to 2-inch tape, enhancing their unique rich sound. Every drum and cymbal was recorded with multiple velocities and multiple hits per velocity to ensure the most natural recreation. Then the samples were transferred to digital via high end A/D converters at 24 bit/44.1kHz.
The drum samples were then processed by Steven Slate using some of the most classic analog gear from both past and present. The result are drums that sound like you've always dreamed of, with punchy transients and smooth decays. By listening to the audio demos on the Steven Slate homepage, its easy to hear why many pros call Steven's drum samples the very best-sounding digital drums available.
Modeled Kits
While you'll probably find many of the drum kits on Steven Slate Drums are reminiscent of drum sets you've heard from various bands over the years, thirteen kits have been authentically modeled for a sound so genuine, it's just like the real acoustic thing! The Signature Drumkits Platinum collection contains drum sets modeled after those from Led Zeppelin, Steely Dan, Motley Crue, Metallica, Greenday, Deftones, AC/DC, Foo Fighters, Pantera, Nirvana, Red Hot Chili Peppers, and Dream Theater. Keep in mind, these drum kits model the finalized mixed sounds that you have become familiar with, not just raw recordings of the drummer's kits. Check out the audio demos on the Steven Slate homepage.
Room Mics
The Steven Slate Drums collection contains two unique sounding sets of room mics. The first set is from a large warehouse with concrete walls. These room mics were processed with heavy doses of compression, EQ, and even modulation to make a larger-than-life, deep, wide, expressive room sound.
The drums were then sampled in the famous NRG Recording STUDIO A, known for being one of the top drum rooms in Los Angeles. It's been home to bands like Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, Billy Joel, and more. These room mics have been left unprocessed and contain the signature depth and space from this beautiful sounding room.

"Glee" (9 p.m. on Fox, TV-14) fans can rejoice. Fox has renewed the high school musical melodrama for an additional two seasons. Whether "Glee" will continue to divide its narrative between the hijinks at McKinley High and the travails of its big city graduates, or narrow itself down to one storyline remains to be seen.
"Glee" (9 p.m. on Fox, TV-14) fans can rejoice. Fox has renewed the high school musical melodrama for an additional two seasons. Whether "Glee" will continue to divide its narrative between the hijinks at McKinley High and the travails of its big city graduates, or narrow itself down to one storyline remains to be seen.
As the numbers-crunching folks at the TV by the Numbers website have explained, "Glee" was always a cinch for renewal. Its ratings have faded since the show's first season, but remain higher than average for the network.
Many "Glee" detractors hoped it would be canceled, either because they thought the show had run out of creative gas, or because they never liked it in the first place. "Glee" and musical theater-based entertainment in general attract a lot of "love to hate it" fans, folks who exult in a guilty pleasure and watch just to cringe and groan. Speaking of "love it or hate it," look for "Sex and the City" star Sarah Jessica Parker on tonight's episode.
— Last week NBC pulled an episode of "Hannibal" (10 on NBC, TV-14) and replaced it with another. The network said it was reacting to the Boston Marathon bombings and subsequent events. In published reports, the show's executive producer, Bryan Fuller, explained that the pre-empted episode had nothing to do with the attack, but the scheduling change was meant to be "sensitive to where we are as a nation."
Was that decision wise, or merely absurd? Don't get me wrong; I'm not picking on "Hannibal," a well-made series that I consider superior to the grim, graphic depravity of the 1999 novel and its 2001 movie adaptation. But when, exactly, is the right time to air a show about a sadistic, cannibalistic serial killer?
If we all really wanted to be "sensitive" to the nation's feelings, would CBS air half of its morbid forensics dramas, including "Criminal Minds" and "CSI"? Would Fox promote the literary sadism of "The Following"?
And those are just a handful of network shows. Is there ever a "right" or a "wrong" time to enjoy "Dexter"?
I find it troubling when entertainment executives offer spasmodic genuflections to national vulnerabilities one day a year, and then go on broadcasting hyperviolent fare for the following 364.
— A science-fiction re-enactment on "Community" (8 p.m., NBC, TV-PG).
— The results are in on "American Idol" (8 p.m., Fox, TV-14).
— A poisoned target faces a ticking clock on "Person of Interest" (9 p.m., CBS, TV-14).
— Andy pursues show business on "The Office" (9 p.m., NBC, TV-PG).
— Bailey faces scrutiny on "Grey's Anatomy" (9 p.m., ABC, TV-14).
— A winner emerges on the season finale of "Project Runway" (9 p.m., Lifetime, TV-PG), featuring guest judge Michael Kors.
— Charlie's patients become romantically involved on "Anger Management" (9:30 p.m., FX, TV-14).
— Ron's budget-cutting irks Leslie on "Parks and Recreation" (9:30 p.m., NBC, TV-PG).
— A murdered blackmailer's helper may hold vital clues on "Elementary" (10 p.m., CBS, TV-14).

Follow The Right Diet Plan For Your Body
Anyone can lose weight if they are committed to doing so, but it's made so much easier if you are aware of effective strategies on losing weight safely and for the long-term. There are many ways to lose weight, but it's important to do so in a way that is easy for you to stick with. Here are some canny tips that we are sure will be invaluable to you.
Drinking water is essential to losing weight and becoming healthy, but it's hard to drink enough each day. Carry a water bottle, either disposable or refillable, with you every where you go and you can take a sip of water whenever you feel thirsty or feel the first pangs of hunger.
You can consume less calories, and lose more weight, if you take the time to cut up your food. Portion control is difficult for most people, so take a food that contains a large amount of calories (like chocolate) and cut it into smaller portions. You can still eat what you like, but by only consuming a small amount of the food, you will not gain as much weight.
If you're having trouble losing weight, try using some fitness DVDs to give you a structured weight loss routine. Jillian Michaels has some great, proven DVDs that with a little work each day, can have you achieving your dream body in only a few weeks. If you can't afford a fitness DVD try following some fitness videos on YouTube.
Make sure you are getting some exercise while you are on your diet plan. Exercise in any form is great for helping you to lose those excess pounds. You don't have to have a gym membership to workout either. You can run, do sit ups and push ups and that will help you in your weight loss efforts. Walking is also another great way to help you lose weight. Try and stay active, get your body in motion to lose the weight.
Work out for weight loss by not working out. A lot of people freeze and give up when they realize that for true sustained weight loss you need to start exercising. Trick your brain into going along with your exercise by not calling it that. Stay away from the gym and get your "work out" in by washing your car, riding a bike, going on a hike, or any of a million other activities that are exercise without being "exercise".
Stay away from foods that you have trouble stopping at one serving. If you cannot stop eating chips then you should not buy a bag and try to eat one serving. Most likely you will give into temptation. Buy something else that is crunchy but is lower in fat and calories.
Dining out presents a challenge for people trying to lose weight. Even with more healthy options available, restaurant portion sizes are still far too large. One incredibly simple way to control what you're eating is to order your dinner, and ask the server to box half of it up when they bring it to the table. You'll be eating half as much food right off the bat, and can bring home the rest for another meal.
Red pepper flakes are wonderful to use when trying to lose weight. If you eat them early on in the day, it will actually help you to lower the amount of food you eat. You can put some on eggs for breakfast, or use them anyway you would like to.
If you are a potato chip lover like so many of us are, these can really hurt your diet. Try baking some apples instead. The baked apples will give you that crunch that a potato chip will, but offer you the nutrition of eating an apple. Finding healthy alternatives to your favorite foods will boost your weight loss.
There is some very useful advice there, and some of it may even be new to you. What's important however, is to give it time. None of these tips will give you quick results, nor should you want them to. Putting the weight on took a long time, and losing it over a long period is a safer, and more realistic way to go about it. When you don't see results it can be difficult to keep going on the weight loss journey, but if you have committed yourself to accomplishing your weight loss goal, you are unstoppable.

Can you trust what a dog�s nose knows? Police do, but the Supreme Court considered Wednesday curbing the use of drug-sniffing dogs in investigations following complaints of illegal searches and insufficient proof of the dog�s reliability.
Justices seemed concerned about allowing police to bring their narcotic-detecting dogs to sniff around the outside of homes without a warrant and seemed willing to allow defense attorneys to question at trial how well drug dogs have been trained and how well they have been doing their job in the field.
�Dogs make mistakes. Dogs err,� lawyer Glen P. Gifford told the justices. �Dogs get excited and will alert to things like tennis balls in trunks or animals, that sort of thing.�
But Justice Department lawyer Joseph R. Palmore warned justices not to let the questioning of dog skills go too far, because they also are used to detect bombs, protect federal officials and in search and rescue operations. �I think it�s critical ... that the courts not constitutionalize dog training methodologies or hold mini-trials with expert witnesses on what makes for a successful dog training program,� he said.
�There are 32 K-9 teams in the field right now in New York and New Jersey looking for survivors of Hurricane Sandy,� Palmore added. �So, in situation after situation, the government has in a sense put its money where its mouth is, and it believes at an institutional level that these dogs are quite reliable.�
The arguments on Wednesday revolved around the work of Franky and Aldo, two drug-sniffing dogs used by police departments in Florida.
Franky�s case arose from the December 2006 arrest of Joelis Jardines at a Miami-area house where 179 marijuana plants were confiscated. Miami-Dade police officers obtained a search warrant after Franky detected the odor of pot from outside the front door. The trial judge agreed with Jardines� attorney that the dog�s sniff was an unconstitutional intrusion into the home and threw out the evidence.
A Florida appeals court reversed that ruling, but the state Supreme Court sided with the original judge.
The Florida Supreme Court also threw out work done by Aldo, a drug-sniffing dog used by the Liberty County sheriff. Aldo alerted his officer to the scent of drugs used to make methamphetamine inside a truck during a 2006 traffic stop, and Clayton Harris was arrested. But two months later, Harris was stopped again. Aldo again alerted his officer to the presence of drugs, but none were found.
The Florida Supreme Court justices ruled that saying a drug dog has been trained and certified to detect narcotics is not enough to establish the dog�s reliability in court.
The state of Florida appealed both cases to the Supreme Court.
Harris� lawyer Gifford asked the court to uphold the ruling against Aldo and require police to provide proof that the dog is able to do its job correctly. �There is no canine exception to the totality of the circumstances test for probable cause to conduct a warrantless search,� Gifford said. �If that is true, as it must be, any fact that bears on a dog�s reliability as a detector of the presence of drugs comes within the purview of the courts.�
Lawyer Gregory Garre, who represented the state of Florida in both cases, said they shouldn�t have to prove what kind of training and classes Aldo had, �the same way that when an officer provides evidence for a search warrant, we don�t demand the training of the officer, what schools he went to or what specific courses he had in probable cause.�
In Franky�s case, Garre argued that since it wouldn�t be illegal for a police officer to sniff for marijuana outside a door, it shouldn�t be illegal for a dog like Franky to do the same thing.
If that�s true, said Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, then police could just walk down a street with drug-sniffing dogs in �a neighborhood that�s known to be a drug-dealing neighborhood, just go down the street, have the dog sniff in front of every door, or go into an apartment building? I gather that that is your position.�
�Your Honor, they could do that,� Garre said.
But if someone invented a machine called the �smell-o-matic� that could do the same thing as Franky, police would not be able to use it outside of doors without a warrant, Justice Elena Kagan said.
Police aren�t allowed to use technology to see inside a person�s closed-up home without a warrant, argued Howard K. Blumberg, the lawyer for defendant Joelis Jardines. And the use of Franky outside the house �I would submit that would basically be the same thing.�

In my Scientific American column this month, I noted that there's not much need to memorize anything anymore. Ask a high-schooler today to rattle off the presidents, the periodic table or state capitals, and you'll get a blank stare—or a "Sure, let me grab my phone." Google is always available. And when's the last time you had to memorize a phone number?
But we'll never consult our phones for everything. Some things are so important we'll have to commit them to memory even if we reach the age of universal digital retrieval. Here are a few of the life categories where memory will always beat digital lookups:
The Frequency Factor: You access some details so often, memorization is required simply because the sheer quantity of lookups would make your life grind to a halt. Spelling, for example. Looking up every word—or directions to work each day or your school locker combination—would do a real number on your productivity.
The Cultural Factor: You can't function for long in society without some basic grounding in history and culture. Without knowing these references you won't have the context to comprehend current events—or even know what you're missing or what questions to ask. You won't understand advertisements, editorials or even news articles. And you won't get anybody's jokes. You'll be unemployable and undatable.
The Social Factor: You'll always have to know basic facts about your friends and family (and, of course, yourself). You should have instant access to your boss's name, your spouse's birthday and the names of your best friend's children. Fumbling to look them up electronically in a face-to-face situation would result in a lot of hurt feelings (and possibly unemployment).
The Security Factor: Clearly, our gadgets can go a long way toward eliminating the need to memorize passwords. Programs like Dashlane and LastPass autofill our login information on the Web sites we visit, and even fill in our credit card information when we buy something online. But you still have to unlock those programs each day by entering a master password—one you'll have to memorize. That's true of physical security, too: you can automate parts of it, but at the end of the line, there's a physical key or card or fob. You have to know where to find it and how to use it.
The Productivity Factor: Even if your daily work requires something you could easily look up, like molecular weights, stock symbols or commonly prescribed drugs, your work would bog down to a halt if you had to interrupt your flow every few minutes for a lookup. You need fluency in your own career facts to operate effectively.
- The Lookup Factor: Our gadgets may always be able to call up information on demand—but only if you know how and where to look for it. You still have to know how to use the tools of modern up-lookings: like Rotten Tomatoes, Wikipedia, Dictionary.com or—What's the other one? Oh, yeah—Google.

Renowned for looking forward and back with its equally weighted series of reissues, even the new stuff from Rush Hour has had a retro feel—from Braille to Cosmin TRG. Maneuver follows suit. In the title track, Lando Kal breaks '90s pop-house hit "Show Me Love" over a syncopated drum pattern and twists it out of euphoria with threatening 'ardcore synths. "Run It" on the other hand sees him approach UK bass with a Lazer Sword cap on to produce a glitched-out Night Slugs instrumental charged with future garage emotion. While Maneuver isn't exactly breaking ground, and indeed joins the ever-growing pile of multi-referencing records, its familiarity is its charm.

A free truckload of whole cottonseed is just one of the prizes dairy producers will have a chance to win by participating in Cotton Incorporated's new video contest, "Innovative on-farm storage solutions for cottonseed," which launched Nov. 1.
The contest invites dairy producers to grab their cameras and show off their cottonseed storage savvy.
The video contest entry requires dairy producers to demonstrate in three minutes or less an innovative storage solution for cottonseed.
Entries must be submitted at www.wholecottonseed.com/contest by Dec. 10, 2010.
While fun at heart, the video contest was created with purpose: to educate fellow dairy producers about innovative and cost-effective storage solutions for the feedstuff, supplies for which are forecast to double in 2010-11.
The contest will live on Cotton Incorporated's recently launched website, www.wholecottonseed.com. The new website and contest coexist to engage progressive dairy producers with whole fuzzy cottonseed in a new and interactive way.
"With supply of whole cottonseed back on the rise, and more dairy producers and nutritionists reintroducing the feedstuff into the ration, we felt it was essential to develop an online resource to provide current and practical information on working with the fuzzy feed, which can be tricky," says Tom Wedegaertner, director of cottonseed research and marketing, Cotton Incorporated.
"Expanded features, like video tips and access to current cottonseed pricing will further establish this site as a portal for making informed business decisions about cottonseed."
Cotton Incorporated will select the top five videos, based on the following criteria weighed at 25 percent each: originality, maintenance of seed quality, economic feasibility and presentation (clarity of message, creative, professional delivery).
The five finalists will receive a $500 Visa gift card and a Kodak flip camera and digital picture frame. The public will subsequently have the opportunity to vote and elect the winning video. The recipient of the grand prize shall receive a free truckload of cottonseed worth approximately $5,000.
For more information on cottonseed and details about the "Innovative on-farm storage solutions for cottonseed" video contest, including the official rules (http://www.wholecottonseed.com/contest/official-contest-rules), visit www.wholecottonseed.com.
Cotton Incorporated, funded by U.S. growers of upland cotton and importers of cotton and cotton textile products, is the research and marketing company representing upland cotton.

Replacing The Dutchman Panel In A '68
A few months ago, we showed how to rebuild the rear window channel and weatherstripping areas in this '68 Road Runner. The car had been improperly stored for years and required a substantial amount of metal replacement to the rear half. Owner Ed Blankenship chose Wize Guy Rod & Custom of Jonesborough, Tennessee, to apply their considerable metal-working talents to the car.
One area that often gets rotted out due to poor storage is the rear filler tray or Dutchman panel, which fits in between the rear window support and the upper rim lip of the trunk opening. The replacement panel, available from YearOne, fits well in this B-Body application, and we are going to show you the right tricks to remove the old version and install the replacement so it looks good as new. Taking the time to do this right will help ensure that the trunk seals well and the rear window area is not misshapen.
The rear quarter-panels had been removed, which made work on the under-part of the new panel easier. Also, the trunk pan was previously replaced. Having the firm, steady work platform of a fresh trunk floor will make the rest of the bodywork go easier. It would be very unlikely that rust or damage serious enough to require rear filler tray replacement would not also necessitate these others steps. Just don't hang those quarters before doing this part of the job.
Somebody with decent welding skills, common air and hand tools, and patience should be able to get this part of the restoration done without a great deal of hassle or additional mechanical support. Note that this part of the process was done as the window channel areas were being rebuilt to ensure straightness and alignment.
As you will see, the primary factor in achieving excellent bodywork results is preparation and patience.
- MiG welder with .035 wire
- Air or electric rotary tool (grinder, cut-off wheels, drill)
- Air or electric drill with bits
- Body hammer and dollies
- Vise-grip-style locking clamps

Please be aware that all delivery times quoted are based on when your order leaves the warehouse and not from the time you originally placed your order. Due to this we ask that you do not arrange to have an installer on site until after your order has arrived and you have checked all goods. We do not pay installation costs in the event that the product is damaged in transit or is not suitable for any reason, so it is important to ensure everything is in order before you begin the installation process.
In the unfortunate event that a product cannot be delivered within the quoted timescale we will contact you to make you aware and if at any point you wish to have a delivery update we will provide you with the tracking number directly on your order and by request at any time, also any other relevent information such as scheduled time slot or courier contact number can be requested and provided where available.
Delivery methods
We use a number of couriers to deliver your order, and the courier responsible for delivery will depend on what you order and where your order is being delivered to. Orders placed after 2PM with next day delivery selected will not be processed until the following day and then dispatched for delivery the day after.
· Small Items
for small parcel deliveries, generally letter box sizes or under 2kg, we will use Royal Mail. Each item will be carefully packaged and collected direct from our warehouse. Your delivery will then arrive at your door within the time frame you selected (Delivery is normally made within 1-3 days or next day if expedited shipping is selected).
· Medium Items
For medium parcel deliveries, we will use a range of couriers such as Parcelforce and TNT. Each item will be carefully packaged and collected direct from our warehouse. Your delivery will then arrive at your door the next business day unless you have requested otherwise.
· Large Products
A specialist delivery service is required on larger items, such as Glassware, Bath Tubs and selected items over 30kg. The standard specialist service time scale is an estimated 2-7 working days. When your order is processed and given to our courier, you will be contacted to arrange a suitable delivery date.
· For all deliveries
1. A signature is required to accept delivery on all orders, so please arrange for someone to be at the location to sign, this is especially important for the large product deliveries, as these often cannot be rearranged once agreed.
2. Large products are only available as a 2 Man delivery service option which is region specific. Details of the postcode surcharges can be found on the deliver image and to summarise:
· Zone A- England and Wales - Free
· Zone B - Check Shipping Image - +£30

If it is a small or medium item, the courier will attempt to delivery again and will also leave a card for you to arrange a suitable day if possible. If it is a large item there will be one delivery attempt made, if unsuccessful they will have to rearrange delivery which may incur a charge. Some Royal Mail and Parcelforce orders that you miss, you may have to collect from your local depot/Post Office.
· Our returns explained
We hope you love what you buy from Durovin Bathrooms. However, if you change your mind, we do accept returns. Providing the item can be sent back unused and in all original packaging we can help you through the returns process.
If you wish to organise a return for an item you've already bought, simply go to your Order Confirmation email and reply direct to our team with the details.
· Who pays for return postage costs?
If the item was not as described, e.g. it is damaged during transit, we are responsible for paying return postage costs. If the buyer changes their mind about a purchase and wants to return it, they will be required to pay the postage. We will provide a return postage address and additional return postage information for the buyer.
In all other instances as a Buyer you would be responsible for return postage charges, we recommend using a service such as Parcels2Go or ParcelHero to compare and contrast the most suitable service.
When returning an item all goods must be accepted and signed for as received and then return shipping to be arranged independently. We reserve the right to deduct the shipping fee from any refused goods in all circumstances. When goods are damaged, accepting the goods allows our team to deal with the matter the same day as we can request all details needed from yourself rather than awaiting the return of the goods to our depot by the courier service.
In an instance of change of mind or similar scenario, again goods will need to be accepted to ensure the goods have arrived in good condition and a refusal leaves the goods unchecked until the return to ourselves, and damaged goods cannot be refunded unless previously agreed with knowledge of the matter.
We reserve the right to deduct any shipping fees from any return without prior confirmation and correct shipping practices.

I prefer something simple, not oversaturated, with cool mascot in soccer fan (casual wear in hooligans style is also okay) style, but may be you can invent something better.
Logo needs something related to soccer. No abstract things please.

Event Coverage
FASHION WEEK: Beauty at Falguni & Shane Peacock
The beauty was really quite special at the Falguni & Shane Peacock Collection presented recently at the Mercedes Benz Fashion Week in NYC. Modern was there to capture the HOW TO's.
Matthew Curtis, using T3 appliances, designed a chignon "with a edge. This season the collection is more wearable so we are creating a modern chignon." Curtis demos how to create the clamped edge courtesy heavy spray and a T3 flat iron.
Kelly Thompson, (using Kryolan), creates a sharp cateye and then adds gloss to the black to make it look like patent leather. "For the eyebrows, I wanted them to go away, but not entirely. By adding some concealor you can make them vanish...slightly," she says.
Celeb manicurist Lisa Logan, using JulieG, painted "Black Sheep" on squared off press on nails. "It's a perfect look for this show," she said backstage. "And I love using press on nails during fashion week. These girls have so much to worry about that the last thing I want to do is give a nail color and design that needs extra attention."
In these three short videos, each artist breaks down the look for the show.

clix needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 404 designs submitted by 90 freelance designers.
ItsFixed (itsfixed/ITSFIXED)
We are three business partners making the most of our backgrounds, our association and our locations. We're starting a business fixing computers and installing devices. At our core that is what the business will do, but in parallel we want to educate our customer about how their computer problem occurred, and how they can stop it happening again.
The education experience will be a strong theme in our business model (and therefore in our branding).
We will operate in 3 major Australian cities, where our staff will travel to the customer's house/premises and either fix a problem on their computer or install and configure a peripheral device. We will eventually cater to PC and MAC problems in all Australian major cities.
We will be aiming our services at two audiences – older generation (casual) users, and home-based business operators. Two distinct markets with two common needs: Service providers come to them, and they have money to spend to get their problem rectified.
The older generation customer will be William (not his real name). William is over age 45, with limited computer knowledge. He has little knowledge about security and housekeeping on his home laptop, and has only become accustomed to computers because of limited use over the past 10 years using Windows™ in his workplace. His machine is slow and full of malware and bloatware.
The business-operator customer will be Emma. She is a small-business owner working in her business and employing another full-timer and a part-timer. She has 4 computers networked at her home-office, with business-related peripherals. She could probably setup her new equipment herself (she is 37 and knows computers), but she can't afford the time. NOTE time and cost-effectiveness are more important to Emma than the percieved educational benefits.
It will be a special design that grabs both of these target audiences. During the contest, concepts will be shown to both 'Emma' and 'William' to see how they respond. We haven't set too many style restrictions, as we want to see your interpretation of what each market will like.
Graphical elements can be included in the logo, but don't need to be. Any 'hero' graphic used must be non-photographic, and must be strong enough to be identified with the business name [example, the NIKE tick].
We would consider designs which emphasize the 'IT' in the business name, but only if it works visually and doesn't complicate the logo. The acronym for 'Information Technology' is widely recognisable and indicates our core business, but it is optional.
The design can also include a tagline, but the 'treatment' of the tagline will be judged instead of the wording. So just put anything in there: For example, 'Fixing your computer at your place' will be ok to use.
Other general requirements:
• We prefer solid colours rather than gradient fills. The design should be 'singular' enough to be embroidered.
• Keep the number of colours to a minimum throughout the design. Include at least one option with Hue/Sat value of 140/180 (any luminosity)
• The logo will most be most widely used on our web pages. Please consider designs that will suit being use in a web-page header.

You could be forgiven for seeing the initial launch of David Braben and Frontier Developments' ambitious Kickstarter campaign for a new Elite game and thinking, "Okay, but where's the game?"
Most Kickstarter pitches these days at least show some hint of what the finished project will look like, but the Elite Kickstarter Page, upon first launch, showed nothing of the sort. Just a logo, and a goal of just under $2 million bucks, US. Okay then.
The campaign, which builds on decades of love for the hugely popular Elite series, has already raised a big chunk of cash. But it would appear Braben heard the concerns about the total lack of concept art of design documents, as there's now some concept art and a pitch video on the page.
So, if you choose to back them, you'll at least be getting somewhat of a better idea of what your money is going towards.

Here's how to remove the timing information to have a clean, diff-compatible dmesg log:
sed 's/^...............//'The command basically removes the first (number of dots ".") characters of every line.
Then you can use diff to compare the dmesg files side by side:
diff -y -w -B --suppress-common-lines dmesg-A dmesg-BOf course this is still not magic, but at least now diff can filter out a lot of similarities for you.

The life of a poker player can demand quite a lot of travel. To most, that is the biggest perk of the job. However, with that perk can come an unhealthy lifestyle. A lifestyle that is ridden with sleeplessness, lack of energy, and perhaps, limited focus. These are all symptoms of both any given Sunday on the grind and jet lag.
Jet Lag: A temporary disruption of body rhythms caused by high-speed travel across several time zones, typically in a jet aircraft.
Throughout my years of practice, I like to believe I have managed to keep my jet lag under control. After seeing an article about a study by Harvard Medical School looking at resetting the sleep-wake cycle that Barry Carter tweeted this week; however, I wanted to look deeper into the topic.
Jet lag can last days and can have a serious impact on your game. We all know the importance of sleep, so when your biological rhythm is out of whack, it's vital to know how to snap back to normalcy as soon as possible. The effect that jet lag has on a person varies greatly for each individual, making it difficult to provide a single remedy to overcome the problem. What works for me, might not necessarily work for you. So here is a combination of my personally suggested ways to manage the onset of jet lag, as well as some other interesting strategies I have found.
I don't care what time of day it is, when I'm on a long-haul flight, while wedged between complete strangers in economy class, sleep is vital. I request a window seat, put on my pressure socks (preventions for DVT), take a sleeping pill and off I go into dream world. No matter how much I sleep in the air, I still always seem to be ready for bed upon arrival.
The way I have found to adjust to a new time zone is to stay awake once I arrive at my new destination. Whether it is morning or evening when you arrive, try to not sleep until your usual bedtime in the new location's timezone. If you arrive in the morning, let the adrenaline from the excitement of exploring a new location keep you going. If you arrive at night, then I'm sure you would have no problems with sleeping! It is for this reason that I suggest to opt for flights that arrive in the evening whenever possible, then you don't have to deal with trying to stay awake.
British Airways, in conjunction with the U.K.'s leading sleep expert, Dr. Chris Idzikowski, has developed a handy jet lag adviser tool on its website. By answering a few simple questions regarding a flight, the tool will advise you on the best course of action. Those actions are based around the theory of the circadian rhythm, whereby seeking and avoiding light during particular times will assist your body with making a smooth transition to a new time zone. Take the application for a test drive if you want.
This is a tough one, in my opinion, because it involves voluntarily parting ways with one of my favorite pastimes — eating. However, on top of keeping jet lag on a leash, it could make a brilliant preparation technique for the likes of Australians preparing to wake up at 4 a.m. to play the Sunday Majors, for example.
According the Harvard Medical School study, not eating for 12 to 16 hours can help people reset their sleep-wake cycle, and improve their ability to cope with jet lag or a long overnight grind. In a similar way to the concept of exposure to light, this works like a second "food-clock." If you stop eating 12 to 16 hours before you want to be awake, then once you break that fast, your internal clock will reset as though it is the start of a new day.
For example, if you want to start waking up at 2 a.m., start fasting between 10 a.m. or 2 p.m. the previous day and don't break your fast until you wake up at 2 am. Make sure you eat a nice healthy meal to jump-start your system. –Wisebread.com
Aircraft cabins are incredibly dry because of their pressurized air, so your body dehydrates quickly.
Dehydration at altitude causes toxins to build up quicker because oxygen is scarce and your body functions less efficiently. More toxins and acidity upset the homoeostatic balance, which is the preferred way your body works, and puts you in a stressful mode of operation. The knock on effect is your physiological systems function differently, including the hormones which control the body clock and jet lag. Source: Natural News
It is important to drink lots of water before, during, and after your flight. The only pitfall is that if you're sitting in the window seat I recommended earlier, then you're going to annoy a couple of people by constantly climbing over them to get to bathroom! So if you do keep to hydrating while flying, you may want an aisle seat.
I also recommend keeping a bottle of eye drops with you. Eye drops not only relieve any irritating dryness and provide an instant sensation of relief and wakefulness, but they also clear redness so you don't look evil when you land.
Most of all, avoid alcohol! As much as enjoying a glass of red wine over dinner to help you fall asleep sounds ideal, it really isn't in the long-run. Alcohol will simply add to the excessive dehydration.
Jet lag isn't the only issue your body has to deal with after a long flight, or a long session. How often do you walk off the plane with an aching back? Yoga is a brilliant way to assist with relieving both troubles, and all you need is a space the size of you in your hotel room. Easy.
Here is one of my favorite poses after flying, as recommended by The Travel Yogi:
Legs Up the Wall
Legs up the wall is the most restorative posture you can take after a plane flight, and you don't have to put any effort into the posture at all. Stagnant blood and fluid can pool n in your legs while you travel and make them swell, so elevating your feet helps to drain pooled fluid while recirculating oxygenated blood through your system. Extend your legs up the wall for at least 10 minutes as soon as you reach your hotel room. This is even recommended as a "layover pose" — if you have no shame in the airport terminal and aren't wearing a skirt or kilt.

The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) and the Committee of the Regions (CoR)
Diana Panke
In the European Union (EU), there are two consultative committees, the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) and the Committee of the Regions (CoR). Both, the EESC and the CoR are involved in EU decision-making but lack formal competencies to influence European secondary law directly. Instead of having votes or veto rights concerning EU directives or regulations, the two consultative committees provide recommendations to the European Parliament and the Council of Ministers. In addition to providing advice to the two EU legislative chambers, the two consultative committees can also approach the European Commission and give input into the drafting of EU policies at the very early stage.
Going Public and Presidential Leadership
Matthew Eshbaugh-Soha
Going public is the preeminent governing strategy of modern presidents. When presidents go public, they attempt to influence the decisions, actions, and opinions of others through speechmaking and other public engagement. Although some scholars of the rhetorical presidency show how presidents have used speeches to govern since the dawn of American democracy, the bulk of scholarship centers on the modern presidency, as both advances in communications technologies and changes in federal policymaking institutions spurred presidents to go public.
Going public as a leadership strategy involves a variety of presidential speeches designed to reach a range of institutions and actors. Strategies include going local, speaking on national television, or saturating news coverage by sustaining attention to a top priority. The president's target audience can be Congress, the public, news media, or bureaucracy. Presidents have had some success going public, although the ways in which presidents have been successful vary by strategy and target audience.
Going public is more than just presidential leadership of others. It is also about what incentivizes the president's efforts to use speeches to govern in the first place. Thus, a second focus of research on going public is what explains speechmaking and the tendency of presidents to respond to those institutions and actors that they also attempt to lead. The majority of existing research centers on presidential leadership of, and responsiveness to, mass public opinion, but the emergence of a more polarized public may influence why presidents go public and may change what political scientists conclude concerning going public and presidential leadership in a more polarized political age.
Political Agenda Setting and the Mass Media
Stefaan Walgrave and Peter Van Aelst
Recently, the number of studies examining whether media coverage has an effect on the political agenda has been growing strongly. Most studies found that preceding media coverage does exert an effect on the subsequent attention for issues by political actors. These effects are contingent, though, they depend on the type of issue and the type of political actor one is dealing with. Most extant work has drawn on aggregate time-series designs, and the field is as good as fully non-comparative.
To further develop our knowledge about how and why the mass media exert influence on the political agenda, three ways forward are suggested. First, we need better theory about why political actors would adopt media issues and start devoting attention to them. The core of such a theory should be the notion of the applicability of information encapsulated in the media coverage to the goals and the task at hand of the political actors. Media information has a number of features that make it very attractive for political actors to use—it is often negative, for instance. Second, we plead for a disaggregation of the level of analysis from the institutional level (e.g., parliament) or the collective actor level (e.g., party) to the individual level (e.g., members of parliament). Since individuals process media information, and since the goals and tasks of individuals that trigger the applicability mechanism are diverse, the best way to move forward is to tackle the agenda setting puzzle at the individual level. This implies surveying individual elites or, even better, implementing experimental designs to individual elite actors. Third, the field is in dire need of comparative work comparing how political actors respond to media coverage across countries or political systems.
Typology of Media Systems
Daniel C. Hallin
Typologies are a central tool of comparative analysis in the social sciences. Typologies identify common patterns in the relationships among elements of media systems and wider social systems, and serve to generate research questions about why particular patterns occur in particular systems, why particular cases may deviate from common patterns, and what the consequences of these patterns may be. They are important for specifying the context within which particular processes operate, and therefore for identifying possible system-level causes, specifying the scope of applicability of theories, and assessing the validity of measurements across systems. Typologies of media systems date to the publication of Four Theories of the Press, which proposed a typology of authoritarian, libertarian, social responsibility and Soviet Communist media systems. Hallin and Mancini's typology of media systems in Western Europe and North America has influenced most recent work in comparative analysis of media systems. Hallin and Mancini proposed three models differentiated on the basis of four clusters of variables: the development of media markets; the degree and forms of political parallelism; journalistic professionalism; and the role of the state. Much recent research has been devoted to operationalizing these dimensions of comparison, and a number of revisions of Hallin and Mancini's model and proposals for alternative approaches have been proposed. Researchers have also begun efforts to develop typologies including media systems outside of Western Europe and North America.

For Racing, Derby Was a Pleasant Distraction
LOS ANGELES, May 11, 2014--Derby day has come and gone and despite the presence and previous day's success of Steve Asmussen, the subject of a widely anticipated interview with Bob Costas, racing still seems to be alive and solvent; even if still unreformed and unfriendly to bettors.
[Ed. Note] There was, however, no mention to Asmussen from Costas as to why thyroxine was used needlessly on all his horses.
Though I watched without wagering for the first time in many years, I still enjoyed what I saw of the broadcast; the running, the result--and not being split by longshot Commanding Curve who came from the clouds to finish second.
California Chrome proved himself the real deal; capable of carrying the high-speed with which he motored over the Autobahn at Santa Anita a furlong further over a slower surface at Churchill Downs.
Parenthetically, one need only remember the track maintenance performed in Louisville prior to Invasor's Breeders' Cup victory to rationalize the relatively slow fractional and final times recorded for the Derby following a rapidly run sprint several races earlier.
But those fractions may have been as much, if not more, a function of jockey tactics and a lifeless, waterless surface. Clearly, nobody wanted a repeat of last year's suicidal pace, anyway.
In its second year, the new Derby eligibility system produced a popular winning favorite whose vertical exotic payouts were leveraged considerably by the longshot runnerup.
Hopefully, Commander Curve's surprising placing is a preview of what is to come rather than a reprise of Golden Soul's and Ice Box's careers as one-hit wonders.
The 'Commander' will be waiting to get even in the Belmont Stakes rather than take on Chrome in Baltimore where the pace figures to get hotter than the Derby's. The ultimate wisdom of that plan will have to wait until June.
It is worth noting that the Chrome would also have qualified for the Derby under the previous earnings-based system, as well as the weighted points system based on graded stakes finishes exclusively. Commander Curve only would have qualified under the new rules.
Like old friend Drosselmeyer, he had only a third place finish in the Louisiana Derby to recommend him.
Once more Todd Pletcher's presence was underwhelming given his mastery of the Derby preps; especially given the new rules. His Derby trainees finished 3rd, 10th, 12th, and 17th, Danza could have finished closer owing to his troubled third.
Potential prepmeister Mike Maker's multiple entrants were unable to muster serious threats, as they finished 11th, 16th and 19th.
If Danza shows up in Baltimore at the last minute, it will be his third race in five weeks, a la Bodemeister, compared to six weeks for the Derby winner. If as expected he doesn't, it will reaffirm that Pletcher regards five weeks rest more important than racing his Derby also-rans in the Triple Crown's second jewel.
All but the top two finishers had troubled trips to varying degrees. If you totally trust the Equibase charts, Dance With Fate seemed to have encountered the most interference. At various stages he was jostled, shuffled, bumped, and shut off, yet still managed to finish sixth. I am awaiting his next start with interest.
As there will be betting on the second leg, too, I won't be expecting to find any from new shooter Social Inclusion. As of this writing, only Ride on Curlin and General A Rod are the only Derby survivors to join the Preakness cast—although I believe Ride On Curlin needs more distance, not less, to turn the tables.
In terms of wagering, apparently DRF Bets account holders were given a chance to bet the Derby after all but had to transfer their account to Xpressbet to do so. Unknown to me is why couldn't both platforms offer Derby betting?
At the end of the day, I and my bankroll both got a well-deserved rest from the rigors of handicapping and wagering, respectively, which doubtlessly saved both my bankroll and sanity.
I will still be boycotting Churchill Downs races, only the Grade I Stephen Foster really representing any sacrifice at all.
The old friends I was Skype-ing with Derby Day supported my decision to boycott in principle, and only one attempted to entice me to split a ticket. He cashed the winning bet by himself, the racing gods being the poor sports that they are.
Knowing my affection [affliction?] for alliteration, he pointed out what a perfectly symmetric exacta box the two CCs would make. I replied that the asymmetric Danza/Dance With Fate combination might work, too. All I wound up losing was my mind.
My friends were as outraged by the takeout hikes imposed by Churchill Downs Inc., as they were when the Thoroughbred Owners of California did the same thing three years earlier. They understand how rebates--enabled and masked by excessive takeout--put them at a disadvantage.
The difference is that my friends play five to 10 days a year compared to my 50 to 100. These days they're into the entertainment and social aspect of the game with perhaps a slim possibility of making a score, even more than in staying in the black.
Parenthetically, I find this a source of amusement since some of them are the same guys that in their earlier days frequently burned the midnight oil on Friday nights, marking up their Morning Telegraphs prior to making long drives the next day to the nearest track with the best purses. How we loved horseracing then, and still do.
They will be watching the Preakness and the Belmont and those with grandchildren might attend the Belmont if the Chrome is still chasing the dream. But they only participate when the best face the best.
They have expressed no interest in the majority of races they perceive to be less reliable; the contestants too frequently over-medicated to the detriment of horse, rider or bettor.
Contraction seems inevitable to them unless the California Chrome story can be replicated and told over and over. It's often said that in this game there's always tomorrow. That's still true. Unfortunately, the game's prospects don't look as good as they once were.

Beacon Trust necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 241 diseños de 92 diseñadores freelance.
Hi, we are a small maker of signature cocktails and our newest creation needs an exciting look before it gets introduced at some events in the near future.
We appreciate all of your efforts and look forward to some great entries. Good luck to every one who submits designs!
The "Karatini" is a 5-star drink for the 5-star crowd. Think Sex in the City. I guess you could consider it a [very] unique take on a cosmopolitan. It has the color of pink grapefruit (sort of) and ginger is one of the most important ingredients. Oh, and it is served in a martini glass.
While we have a few ideas for it, we'll share only a few concepts because we want you to be as creative as possible. Key elements to consider when creating the logo:
- We would like the "K" to be a strong part of the logo (but feel free to break this rule if you think you have a better idea). Here is a link to an example we like: http://aleclong.com/portfolio/print…/karst.pdf
- Elegant
- Sophisticated
- Targets women, but also appeals to men
- Enticing, Sassy
- Sex in the City
The logo design itself needs to include the word "Karatini" - all other elements are optional. Colors are your choice and we will provide ongoing feedback throughout the contest.
Our file requirements are quite simple:
- logo in Black & White (dark version over white, and light version over black)
- logo in color (over white, and over black)
- color logo with transparent background (PNG)
- We need high-res PNG files and the original source files for each version listed above (e.g. Adobe Illustrator)
Please feel free to just submit the color logo for the contest and then the winner can provide the B&W versions, etc.
