Nike.inc Saving Our Earth - 1 views

  •  
    From Nike's project, we can see that even though they have successfully sold their products to people. Nevertheless, when shoes got beat up, people usually just throw it away. Fortunately, Nike has collected shoes for reuse and build couple public facility. This is type of work that working with community and society, which we talked about during the lecture.

    This is really cool considering the PR associated with Nike and their impact economically.

    I love Nike! and you should watch this video too! The video is about how Nike transforms recycled bottles into jerseys. http://globalgrind.com/2012/04/17/nike-lightest-environmentally-friendly-soccer-jerseys-photos/

    I really think this project is awesome. I never thought about recycling worn out dirty shoes, but this is definitely a good idea. My nephew plays soccer and he throws away 2-3 sports shoes every year (which is a lot!!), so I always thought it will be great if there's a way to recycle shoes. I hope more companies or organizations start this kind of projects to save earth.

    I think this is a great idea. I would love to know more about it. There is not much other information about it on the internet besides what is in the video. Does anyone know if Nike donates these courts or fields? That would be a great way to give back to the community.

    I really like this a lot. This is good for Nike public relations wise and it is smart economically as well. Nike being a progressive company is a positive for everyone involved.

    This is so interesting! I love looking at rankings like these to get a chance to see what you want to travel and see! the "Get your dig on" one is very funny!
  •  
    This list was hilarious and so cool! I love that there is an amusement park solely for China's dwarf population. Loved looking through the list.
  •  
    Like this a lot. Definitely added these to the bucket list.

    As a kid I have always enjoyed an escape to a theme park, and these theme parks are so different yet uniquely engaging in their own way. Shame there weren't more like them where I grew up.

Annual Outdoor Show - Quilts in the Vineyard - 1 views

    Annual Outdoor Quilt Show and Benefit for Strengthening Rural Families in Benton County - Live music, 80-110 quilts shown at Sweet Earth Vineyard in Monroe, Oregon (off hwy 99 halfway between U of O and OSU) Labor Day Weekend
  •  
    I had no idea that there were events such as quilt showings! It really heightens my attention because I would love to go to an event such as this. It really reminds me that quilts really are pieces of arts. Not only in the way they are made but how they are displayed as well. It looked absolutely gorgeous looking at the pictures of the quilts hanging in the vineyard. This post and event really touches me personally because my grandmother loved to quilt and maybe I could be able to show one of her quilts one day adding my families culture and traditions to the world.
