first love

Morning dew still creeping stems, green leaves, the sun hiding behind clouds. But I've stood staring at the sky is still white. Today feels strange to me, usually at the moment I was still asleep on the mattress. But because the eye can not shut, forcing me to get some fresh air, eliminating the anxiety that always came to me.
I was nervous because of longing. Longing for home, longing for the family in the village, especially miss him. I went to town and leave them there. I wanted to meet him. He who has filled the recesses of my heart for seven years.
Under the tree I was sitting in front of the boarding house while enjoying the cool weather in the morning. Where people still do not want to release a beautiful dream, let alone this new four-hour, no one woke up like me.
Accompanied by a warm cappuccino I lost in fantasy that contains my memories with him. The man who first stopped at my heart and will probably be the last. He is two years older than me. We met when I was in junior high school. We always go home together because our house nearby. At first I did not have a sense with him, but because we often see at home and at school to make sense of this show. Our closeness was also because his father is my father's subordinates
At the time I go to a different high school with him, but after three months, I do not feel at home. Then my father told put me in the same school with him. He became happy because we could one school anymore. And we became more close. Then over time this relationship is known by my father. He was very angry. Indeed, the father does not agree that until I liked it. Upon hearing the news from school that we are often alone, father and ordered paid to give lessons to her. But that did not make it stop and see me. We also met secretly.
Voice call to prayer echoes brought me back to reality.
Huuh ... I'd love to meet him. But why did he not come, although he has promised will come Saturday. What happened to him?

"Lyza ... Lyza!" I hear people calling me.
"Yola ... what is it?" it turns out that one girl boarding with me come with panting breath.
"Lyz ... eng ... I want to say .. that ... Your mother is sick!"
"What? what it is, know where? "I was immediately surprised to hear my mother was sick.
"From the village, some call me. we are back home now! "he ordered.
"Strange, how come there are not that tell me?"
"Never mind, we are back home now anyway." Without waiting for my answer, Yola immediately pulled me back. Then we were rushed to the village.

Arriving in the village, I felt an anomaly in my boyfriend's house. Why stand up a blue tent? Yola happen to me and my boyfriend's house through the front and saw the front porch. When he saw me, he immediately ran into the house. My heart wondered why he was so strange.

Before arriving at home I met with my mother my boyfriend on the street. I was immediately asked him, what is the event at his home. Her mother immediately told me everything, and without realizing it I cry. Suddenly, my boyfriend came from the back. She apologized to me, he did not know what to do anymore. He also said if he really loves me. Then in front of his parents we hugged and wept together end of our story.
At home I immediately got angry abysmally. Both my parents were surprised to see me acting weird like that. Yola then told them the incident that he had been known before. My parents were advice to seek a more equal partner and more loyal. I really can not accept his decision.
I returned to town after they found out my mother's fine.

Since then, I become increasingly bizarre, often out of control my emotions, each saw something sharp, like durian for example, wanted to stick to my head.

My friends felt uncomfortable on my attitude, because all their male friends to the boarding house I always blow-scold them for no reason. Once my friends tied me up with a blanket on the chair because I was raging and suicidal.

Once upon a time there was a man who worked in mental hospitals around the boarding house, he's one of my friends. He saw me yelling at my friend for no reason, my attitude was understandable that my friends another. And when I slammed the door, she was surprised and asked what was wrong with the girl who caught his attention.

After knowing what my problem, he met me. I was angry with his presence without permission. Then he sprayed my face with water, he thought I was possessed. But when he was misunderstood, then he laughed. Then he took my hand, invited me to sit on the terrace. Suddenly I was out all the problems that burdened my heart and I cried in front of new people I knew. After finishing his story, he told me to wash myself and then took a shower eating meatballs in the vicinity. I do not know why that was beside me very calm and presence that made me forget all my problems.

A week later where I was back to normal, I got word that my ex-boyfriend will soon be married.

"Why, Lyza why can not the invitation," I asked in Yola.
"He knows you do not want to give, Lyz. Fear you're sick again. "But Randy, the man who last week took me to calm me even there
"no, lazily back and forth to get there."
"Why, scared? He said there is not sense anymore. "Therefore I am forced to go on the next to Dick wedding.

At the wedding, I was able to get my heart to take it off. As I shook hands with him, he cried. Then she saw Randy and told him to take care and do not ever hurt me. Actually, I still love her very much. But we are not fated to be together forever. Because anything that makes forced to marry someone who is not loved at all.

My father was the one who really did not like our relationship. time Dick could not see me on Saturday, the father found him and his family without my knowledge. Daddy curse she swore and scolded his father. Dad says if they do not deserve. Dad would appreciate a higher status than his father. Because his parents heartache and find another mate for him.
I also understand the circumstances that have to accept. And to forget my hand back all he has ever given me, including his poetry. That is why his wife surprised and asked me what gift I gave to him so that his wife should not be opened. Then finish with the problem immediately. He met and told him to show me a gift to his wife.

"For what is hidden, let see the gift to the wife's brother let him calm down, you do not want any more trouble between us." With a heavy heart, he showed a music box, necklace and so on his wife.
Since then, I rarely see her, but we still communicate as usual in the distance, until now.

Banner, Poster and Pamphlet

BANNER

A banner is a flag or other piece of cloth bearing a symbol, logo, slogan or other message. Banner-making is an ancient craft.

The word derives from late Latin bandum, a cloth out of which a flag is made (Latin banderia, Italian bandiera), (Spanish bandera). German developed the word to mean an official edict or proclamation and since such written orders often prohibited some form of human activity, bandum assumed the meaning of a ban, control, interdict or excommunication. Banns has the same origin meaning an official proclamation, and abandon means to change loyalty or disobey orders, semantically "to leave the cloth or flag".


Banners in a religious context

The prophet Isaiah was commanded to raise a banner and exalt his voice (Isaiah 13:2 KJV). Habakkuk received a similar order to write a vision upon tables that could be read by one who runs past it (Habakkuk 2:2).

In Christianity

For more on the design and making of church banners, see Banner-making. For banners used in the Eastern Orthodox Church, see Khorugv.

Banners in churches have, in the past, been used mainly for processions, both inside and outside of the church building. However, the emphasis has, in recent years, shifted markedly towards the permanent or transient display of banners on walls or pillars of churches and other places of worship. A famous example of large banners on display is Liverpool R.C. Cathedral, where the banners are designed by a resident artist.

Banners are also used to communicate the testimony of Jesus Christ by evangelists and public ministers engaged in Open Air Preaching.

Trade union banners

Banners of AUT, NATFHE, Cambridge TUC and Cambridge University Students' Union. In Britain, trade union banners have been made since the 1840s, and at May Day parades, they could be counted in the hundreds. The iconography of these banners included mines, mills, factories, but also visions of the future, showing a land where children and adults were well-fed and living in tidy brick-built houses, where the old and sick were cared for, where the burden of work was lessened by new technology, and where leisure time was increasing. The same kind of banners are also used in many other countries. Many, but not all of them, have red as a dominant colour.

For more on the design and making of these banners, see Banner-making.

Advertising banners: pre-printed banners and custom banners

Often fabricated commercially on a plastic background, the banner industry has developed from the traditional cut-vinyl banners to banners printed within large, ultra-wide format inkjet printers on various vinyl and fabric materials using solvent inks and ultraviolet-curable inks.[1]

Banners are used in many business ventures, marketing to their potential audience. A number of British towns and cities have whole series of banners decorating their city centres, effectively advertising the town or its special features and attractions. Pre-printed banners, albeit commonly used, are simple and accessible. Banners can be printed in enormous formats, with a full range of rich colors.

Banners can be found plastered behind a window screen, as billboards, atop skyscrapers, or towed by airplanes or blimps. As with variable of size and quantity, the number of sides and quality of ink are as much of a crucial factor. In an instance of retail stores which purchase pre-printed clearance banners, or a variety of sale banner. A banner facing underneath or against glass is absorbing exposure from the sun. A banner printed on UV outdoor ink will last several years to a decade where cheaper ink fades, requiring frequent replacement.[1] Being behind glass, a two-sided banner can be displayed from the inside and out, often building recognition between shoppers and caretakers. Three-sided banners are oftentimes appealing as there is dimension and can be embellished differently. The more sides that exist, the more angles the banner covers, which is a possibility where a two-sided banner doesn't face the viewer from center of the room or streets.

Advertisements on the Internet which carry the shape of a banner are also commonly called "banners". See web banner for more information.

Types of posters
Travel posters

Poster advertising or proposing a travel destination, or simply artistically articulating a place have been made. An example is the Beach Town Posters series, a collection of Art Deco travel posters of American beach resorts that refer to the advertising style of the 1920s and 1930s.
Propaganda and political posters

During the First and Second World Wars, recruiting posters became extremely common, and many of them have persisted in the national consciousness, such as the "Lord Kitchener Wants You" posters from the United Kingdom, the "Uncle Sam wants you" posters from the United States, or the "Loose Lips Sink Ships" posters[2] that warned of foreign spies. Posters during wartime were also used for propaganda purposes, persuasion, and motivation, such as the famous Rosie the Riveter posters which exhorted women workers during World War II that "We can do it!". The Soviet Union also produced a plethora of propaganda posters[3], some of which became iconic representations of the Great Patriotic War. During the democratic revolutions of 1989 in Central and Eastern Europe the poster was very important weapon in the hand of the opposition. Brave printed and hand-made political posters appeared on the Berlin Wall, on the statue of St. Wenseslas in Prague and around the unmarked grave of Imre Nagy in Budapest and the role of them was indispensable for the democratic change. A recent example of an influential political poster is Shepard Fairey's Barack Obama "HOPE" poster.

Advertising posters

Many posters, particularly early posters, were used for advertising products. Posters continue to be used for this purpose, with posters advertising films, music (both concerts and recorded albums), comic books, and travel destinations being particularly notable examples.
Film & movie posters
The film industry quickly discovered that vibrantly coloured posters were an easy way to sell their pictures. Today, posters are produced for most major films, and the collecting of movie posters has become a major hobby. The record price for a poster was set on November 15, 2005 when US$690,000 was paid for a poster of Fritz Lang's 1927 film Metropolis from the Reel Poster Gallery in London.[4] Other early horror and science fiction posters are known to bring tremendous prices as well, with an example from The Mummy realizing $452,000 in a 1997 Sotheby's auction[4], and posters from both The Black Cat and Bride of Frankenstein selling for $334,600 in various Heritage Auctions.[5] The 1931 Frankenstein 6-sheet poster, of which only 1 copy is known to exist, is considered to be the most valuable film poster in the world].
Comic book posters

The resurgence of comic book popularity in the 1960s led to the mass production of comic book posters in the 1970s and onward. These posters typically feature popular characters in a variety of action poses. The fact that comic books are a niche market means that a given poster usually has a smaller printing run than other genres of poster. Therefore, older posters may be quite sought after by collectors. Promotional posters are usually distributed folded, whereas retail posters intended for home decoration are rolled.
Railway posters

In the early days of steam railways in Britain, the various rail companies advertised their routes and services on simple printed sheets. By the 1850s, with increasing competition and improvements in printing technology, pictorial designs were being incorporated in their advertising posters. The use of graphic artists began to influence the design of the pictorial poster. In 1905, the London and North Western Railway (LNWR) commissioned Norman Wilkinson to produce artwork for a new landscape poster, advertising their rail/steam packet link to Ireland. In 1908, for the Great Northern Railway (GNR), John Hassall produced the famous image of the "Jolly Fisherman" with the "Skegness is so Bracing" slogan. The development of this commercial art form throughout the first half of the 20th century reflected the changes in British society, along with the changing styles of art, architecture and fashion as well as changing patterns of holidaymaking. [4]
Event posters

Posters advertising events have become common. Any sort of public event, from a rally to a play, may be advertised with posters; a few types of events have become notable for their poster advertisements. This role involves you liaising with the performance/production team to discover what information they will need on the poster. Posters are common because this can be hung around places where people go.
Boxing posters

Boxing Posters were used in and around the actual venue to advertise the forthcoming fight, date, ticket prices, and usually consisted of pictures of each boxer. Boxing Posters vary in size and vibrancy, but are not usually smaller than 18x22 inches. In the early days few boxing posters survived the actual event and thus they are indeed very collectible and scarce.
Concert posters

Many concerts, particularly rock concerts, have custom-designed posters that are used for advertisement of the event. These often become collectors items as well
Educational posters

Research posters and "poster sessions"

Main article: Poster session

Posters are used in academia to promote and explain research work. They are typically shown during conferences, either as a complement to a talk or scientific paper, or as a publication. They are of lesser importance than actual articles, but they can be a good introduction to a new piece of research before the paper is published. Poster presentations are often not peer-reviewed, but can instead be submitted, meaning that as many as can fit will be accepted.
Classroom posters

Posters are a standard feature of classrooms worldwide. A typical school in North America will display a variety, including: advertising tie-ins (eg. an historical movie relevant to a current topic of study); alphabet and grammar; numeracy and scientific tables; safety and other instructions; artwork and displays by the students(shashwat).
Vintage poster restoration/conservation

Poster restoration and conservation. The backing of posters with fabric dates back to 19th century France, where posters were occasionally glued to linen for reinforcement. This provided some protection, but with the passage of time the paper continued to become brittle and was frequently torn by stress. Modern backing techniques have eliminated this problem by using an acid free paper between the poster and the fabric. The adhesive used is wheat paste treated to inhibit mold growth.

Why fabric-back a poster? The principal reason is to provide support for the paper. It also enables the conservator to flatten the folds and to more easily make repairs. Fabric backing also eliminates the waviness that can occur when the poster is framed.

Reversibility is a concept that is important in all conservation work, because today's curators and collectors are only temporary custodians of a cultural object (the poster) that will have continuing and timeless interest for future collectors. We strive to make certain that materials and techniques that are applied to the poster are not harmful over time and are reversible to bring it back to the state in which we found it.

Restoration can dramatically improve the appearance of a poster. Damage caused by clear adhesive tape, residual stains, water marks and dirt can be easily repaired; combining this with the replacement of lost paper can bring the poster back to virtually its original state.
Cheesecake posters

Cheesecake posters, or "pinups," are pictures of attractive women designed to be displayed, first coming to popularity in the 1920s. The popularity of sexy Pin-up girl posters has been erratic in recent decades. Pin-ups such as Betty Grable and Jane Russell were highly popular with soldiers during World War II but much less so during the Vietnam War. The late 1970s and into the beginning of the 1980s were boom years for large posters of television actresses, especially Farrah Fawcett and Cheryl Tiegs.
Fanposter

The goal of creating a Fanposter is to show all or a large portion of devoted fans on one poster which will be presented and can be seen in a place where many other fans or members have access (hallway of a club house, fanzine, fan webpage, public place).

Affirmation posters

This refers to decorative posters that are meant to be motivational and inspirational. One popular series has a black background, a scene from nature, and a word such as "Leadership" or "Opportunity." Another version (usually framed and matted) uses a two-image hologram which changes as the viewer walks past.
Band/music posters

Posters that showcase a person's favorite artist or music group are popular in teenagers' bedrooms, as well as in college dorm rooms and apartments. Many posters have pictures of popular rock bands and artists.
Book posters

Book text on poster is a type of poster design where the entire text of a book (usually a novel) is printed in legible form. This unique and modern design style is commonly characterized by a wall of text with a depiction of an important element of the book by use of negative space, which in this case is also known as white space.


Blacklight poster

Blacklight posters are designed to have a special effect under a blacklight (ultraviolet light).
