The search for new ideals characterizes our generation. But which values and virtues are still relevant today - religious, moral, spiritual or personal?
The 2013 Trend Diary presents design projects exploring the theme of values.
Why a Trend Diary dealing with values? We feel that in the course of the change instigated by the digital revolution, our view of a clearly defined, shared value system is increasingly fading. While design for "material values" is loud and ever-present, ethical values that paint a picture of belief, family, virtues and moral ideals are drowning in the modern media excess.
What´s in the trend diary? The Trend Diary, in the format of a desk calendar, assembles inspiring works of design by 53 designers of different cultures. Design that conveys values in message and function, provides guidance or aids us in our quest for meaning. Design that shows us that values are the most valuable thing we possess.
In keeping with the trend set by previous award-winning issues from the EIGA Trend Diary series, the publication showcases a special focus on experimental typography and groundbreaking graphic design. The designers at EIGA have developed a unique typeface whose characters are composed of continually rearranging elements – just like society’s understanding of shared values. Furthermore each calendar week features an individual composition corresponding to the designer’s contributions while still following a consistent overall design principle.
The cultural background. Design has been a guide and bearer of standards and values in all cultures from time immemorial. This is evidenced by the codex the Mesopotamians hewed in stone in the 18th century BC, by the awe-inspiring illumination of European Bible manuscripts in the Middle Ages or by the Bauhaus school's function-driven approach to design. Utilizing any given era's media toolbox, design brings the ideals and moral values of society to the surface.
Fact and figures. The Trend Diary was initiated by EIGA, a Hamburg-based design office, and published by NBVD. The production enjoys support from well-known partners in fine paper, printing and print finishing. 53 designers are given a special platform in the form of a weekly motive in the exclusive design calendar.

Our Values
There is a world where people don’t just let things happen. They make them happen.
They don’t check their dreams at the door. They get involved.
They take risks. They leave their mark.
It is a world where every new day and every new challenge brings the opportunity to craft a better future.
(Sergio Marchionne, CEO FCA)
These value studies were made to explore different compositions. I use neutral tint watercolor on beautiful watercolor paper. I believe these studies are works of art in their own rights. I paint full size paintings from these studies.

The NHS Values Summit brings together a diverse range of people and perspectives to create a greater understanding of how people’s differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
It challenges and inspires people to think about the role of ethical leadership in improving the health and wellbeing of local communities, staff and patients and how the NHS can increase the social value of its activities.
Welcoming representatives from health and social care, alongside more than 20 partners from the voluntary and community sector, this event (in Leeds, Yorkshire) was a template for future NHS Values Summits, which will be held twice a year in different locations across the country. Each event will explore a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights. The next gathering will take place in May 2013.

Thanks to Hayley Schroeder for her use of this picture in her valuable blog article for the University of Georgia on efforts to halt the disappearance of Monarch butterflies!
Here's her great story!

The value of making our pictures available to others through Creative Commons is thus demonstrated. . . . .
This wonderful wildflower on which the Monarch butterfly is so dependent is again being appreciated, instead of being routinely eradicated as a WEED along highways and other public places. This was seen at the Asheville Botanical Gardens, but thanks to many such places, Common Milkweed is again being propagated and the word is getting around that this tall plant should be more widely grown. The North Carolina Arboretum, also in Asheville, has a major educational program about Monarch butterflies and promotes the growing of milkweed to help feed them. The Arboretum also demonstrates the banding of the tiny butterflies in order to track their migration--fascinating!

Wikipedia (re Monarchs):
"In North America, the monarch ranges from southern Canada through northern South America. It has also been found in Bermuda, Cook Islands, Hawaii, Cuba and other Caribbean islands, the Solomons, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Australia, New Guinea, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, the Azores, the Canary Islands, South Africa, Gibraltar, Philippines, North Africa and Honolulu. It appears in the UK in some years as an accidental migrant."
Milkweed is a very interesting plant, as I learn from looking at Wikipedia!
"Asclepias species produce some of the most complex flowers in the plant kingdom, comparable to orchids."
The Project on Prosperity and Development will host the Creating Shared Value Conference as part of its ongoing work on the role of the private sector in addressing enduring socioeconomic challenges in the world's poorest countries. Join us for a discussion on ways to maximize shared value between businesses and the often rural communities in which they operate. The conference will build on the energy generated by Nestlé's Creating Shared Value Annual 2014 report to discuss innovative ways government and civil society can work with the private sector to achieve rural development goals. This event is made possible with support from the Nestlé Corporation.

"All of democracy's values [spring from] police guns"
A young father was "mistakenly" executed by police in a hail of bullets, one week ago in Athens, during a botched attempt to arrest heavily armed robbers. Police brutality in Greece, especially towards migrants, continues unabated, despite repeated pledges by the Minister of Public Protection to curb abuse, and as the trial of the police officer arrested for the murder of 15-year old Alexandros Grigoropoulos in December 2008, which sparked country-wide riots, goes on.
In our office, we have been discussing the values of the office for the past several months. We were asked to make a diagram about values. I decided to compare my personal values to those of the offices.
My values are the yellow ones. The offices's values are the blue ones. Where those values overlap, the value is in green. The size of the circle is determined by how much the value is worth. The circles around the values are assessments of where i think the values should be.
All in all, i think that this diagram shows how lucky i am to have a job that encompasses so many of my values.
Quality content is one of the most essential ingredients when it comes to a successful website, but it’s also time-consuming. Most businesses don’t have time to generate engaging content that entices viewers. This is where a freelance copywriter comes in.
Firstly, they will bring a much-needed sense of perspective. Your mind may be caught up in your incredible ideas for the future, and this can cloud your judgement. A UK copywriter will not let irrelevant information cloud their understanding. Another benefit is that you will get your time back. You can focus on what you do best, leaving the copywriter to create enticing and informative content for your audience.
Of course, the main benefit a marketing copywriter will bring is quality. You may think that no one knows your business better than you and, therefore, you are the most qualified to write about it. While this is understandable, those without experience in writing often have trouble communicating their thoughts effectively. Bad copy can detract from your carefully manicured brand and turn people away from your business.
A freelance copywriter can add more value to a business than often meets the eye. The importance of original, high-quality content cannot be overlooked.

June 2011 is the 3rd Annual Pagan Values Blogging Month, a great project that aims to get pagans of all stripes to be both thoughtful and vocal about the things they care most about. My personal value s are inspired and informed by my dual identity as both pagan and Quaker. I see the core of my values as a two sided coin with relationships on one side and self actualization on the other. The interaction of these two forces creates a motion that we physical beings live within, a motion and a force that does the work of building, rebuilding and healing our world.

Doug Kauffman, Congjun Wang - NETL enables technologies that will extract the full economic value from domestic resources, including coal, natural gas, and carbon dioxide.
Coal-Based Carbon Materials – Research focuses on using domestic coal and coal by-products as a manufacturing feedstock for carbon materials. These materials include lightweight carbon fiber composites, carbon additives for construction materials, battery and electrode materials, and carbon nanomaterials. NETL efforts focus on processing domestic coal to make carbon nanomaterials that improve the strength, durability, and optical properties of composites. NETL has demonstrated that cement nanomaterial composites have improved physical properties and corrosion resistance in wellbore and drilling applications. NETL researchers are also investigating the use of coal-based nanomaterials for asphalt and road paving applications, imparting water/stain resistance to textiles, bactericidal/viricidal coatings in hospitals, and as additives for drilling muds.
Creating Options for CO2 Utilization – Research is focused on developing sorbents and catalysts for energy systems and in the production and use of fuels. The laboratory has specialized instrumentation to view material surfaces on an atomic scale, manipulate chemical and physical interactions of a material to determine the rate of chemical reactions, and observe how atoms move as a chemical reaction takes place. An Omicron Analysis and Surface Imaging System (OASIS) gives researchers the ability to move and image molecules on surfaces. Other instrumentation, including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, ion scattering spectroscopy, and low-energy electron diffraction allows researchers to detect how chemical reactions change properties at material interfaces.

An exquisitely restored stone farmhouse situated among the rolling hills, fields, and vineyards of the Gaillac region of southern France, “La Bourthoumarie” is just a few kilometers from the lovely historic village of Cordes sur Ciel.
Written up in several European travel guides, “La Bourthoumarie” features four bedrooms, two covered outdoor dining areas, a 10-meter pool with large terrace, lovely gardens, and incredible views. The large rooms are flooded with natural light and contain fireplaces, original terra cotta tiled floors, and traditional exposed wood beam ceilings.
The well-equipped kitchen opens to a covered breakfast terrace, which is in fact the restored bread oven. A large, three-arched, attached barn houses a second outdoor dining area and barbecue.
A wide, gently spiraling, wood-and-iron staircase leads to the upper two floors, which contain four spacious bedrooms — two with double beds and private bathrooms and two with twin beds and a shared bathroom. Original wood floors contribute to the light and airy ambiance.
The beautifully landscaped ten-meter by five-meter pool is naturally chlorinated by an electrolysis system.
An hour from Toulouse, “La Bourthoumarie” offers an ideal setting to unwind or to explore the ancient and historic Gaillac appellation wine region and its fascinating medievale ‘bastide’ villages, including Cordes sur Ciel, which boasts lovely shops and restaurants, including one with a coveted Michelin star. The town of Albi, with its famous fortified cathedral and renowned Toulouse Lautrec museum, is nearby. The Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts are only a few hours away, as are the Pyrenees.
Adventures and activities abound for adults and children alike, including biking, tennis, golf, canoeing, rock climbing, and fishing.

Agriculture is the main stay of Uganda’s economy, however, the share of agriculture in the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been declining steadily. In fiscal year 2009/10, agriculture contributed only 14.6% to the national GDP of which 1.3% was attributed to the livestock sub-sector. The dairy industry is estimated to contribute more than 50% of the total output from the livestock sub-sector. The dairy industry employs many people who are engaged in various economic activities along the dairy value chain, particularly in milk production, collection, bulking and transportation, processing, distribution and marketing as well as provision of inputs and support services.
