Price tags are a common graphic art that is used for many different marketing prints such as in brochure printing, and booklet printing. Now with the easy tools that you can get from illustrator, you yourself can create your own great looking vector price tag graphics easily. Let me teach the basics in creating a good looking vector price tag for your printed graphic. Let us first start with creating the main rectangle.
1. Start by selecting the rectangle tool in the tools window.
2. Next, click and drag over the canvass to start drawing your rectangle.
3. Adjust the color of your rectangle when necessary by selecting its color options.
4. Next, add a new anchor point to our rectangle. Just go to your tool window and select the “Add Anchor Point Tool”.
5. Since many price tags have pointed edges an one side, we will prepare this by adding one anchor point at the end of the rectangle, in the middle of the two sides.
6. Once the anchor is placed, select the “Direct selection” tool in the tools window.
7. Grab the new anchor point we made and drag it outwards. You should see our basic price tag shape form.
8. Next, let us simulate some borders around the price tag. Use the selection tool (shortcut V) and simply press CTRL+C and then CTRL+V to duplicate our base layer.
9. Change its color to a lighter color and resize it a bit smaller than the original.
10. Place it back on top of our main image to get the border effect.
11. Enhance the border effect by adding a dotted stroke. Just select our smaller shape, and then change its stroke properties to 1px dotted. Make sure you choose a color that is fully contrasting to the background.
12. You should get a result like this:
13. Now, select the larger rectangle again. Adjust its fill and turn it into a gradient. You can do this through the gradient panel. Just make sure you choose the right color that blends well.
14. Next, we shall add the price tag hole. Just use the ellipse tool to create a whole. Color it with the color of your background of course.
15. Then, we shall add some dotted strokes to further enhance this circle as well.
16. Let us add a shadow effect as well beneath the price tag. Duplicate the original shape that we had (CTRL+C then CTRL+V) and then change its color to a full black.
17. Send it behind by issuing the “send to back” command several times. Just right click and then select send to back or press CTRL+ [ several times. Position it so that it looks a bit like a shadow.
18. Finally, let us add our price text. Simply select the text tool and type in the price that you want.
19. It would be better of course for you to use fonts that look a bit like system or simple fonts used for price tags.
20. Great! Now you are ready to use these price tags for any of your designs!
21. Just change the colours to match your needs.

In 1843, Hawai`i was a recognized independent nation.
Hawai`i had treaties with 25 world nations and had 96 legates and consuls throughout the world, including in the US.
But US covert and overt activities led to the 1893 invasion of the Hawaiian Kingdom and the US immediately recognized those who overthrew the kingdom without the people's knowledge.
Using that backing, they created the bogus "Republic of Hawai`i" against the people's wishes.
All legal attempts to annex Hawai`i to the US failed because the citizens of the Hawaiian Nation then overwhelmingly protested and sent their anti-annexation petitions to Washington, DC.
In covering up the hoax, Congress was forced to pass the Newlands Resolution declaring that the majority wished for the annexation of Hawai`i without a lawful treaty.
That's how Hawai`i became unlawfully annexed, and ultimately a fake state.

The Clover Leaf, especially the four leaf clover is a symbol of luck. This is a great addition to your digital or print designs, if you are aiming for that lucky, nature like covers. This applies not only for headers and banners, but also for booklet printing, catalogues and brochure printing as well. If you want your own original creation of a clover leaf, then you have come to the right place. We will review here the step by step procedures in creating Clover leaves in illustrator. If you follow these instructions, then you can also create your own vector type clover leaf for your booklet covers or digital print headers.
1. First create a new document. Set your new document profile appropriately if you are using the graphic for web distribution or print distribution. Set your units as pixels or even points if you like that. Once you are done press ok.
2. Then, before you start drawing, let us start by setting your Fill and stroke values. In the Control Bar, simply select “NONE” as your fill colour, and leave your Stroke to a black colour.
3. Then, select the ellipse tool in your tools window to start drawing some circles.
4. Click on a point on your canvass and then select 200px by 200px as your dimensions for your circle.
5. Next, create 2 more circles along with this one. Use 125 pixels on the first one, and then 90 pixels on the second one.
6. Now, combine your three circles. Just move them by using the Selection tool.
7. Combine them into 3 overlapping rings like the graphic you see below. This will be the base for our leaf in the clover.
8. Next, click and hold onto the Pen tool and choose the option “Convert Anchor Point tool”.
9. Select the largest circle’s bottom anchor point and click/drag it a bit down. You will see that your big circle gets a pointy end in the bottom.
10. Extend the pointy end even further by selecting the Direct selection tool in your tools window.
11. Click and drag the bottom anchor point a bit more downwards
12. Afterward, select all your circles. Then, open the pathfinder window. If you do not see this window, it is in Windows -> Pathfinder. Click on “Divide” .
13. Afterwards, right click on your whole selection and then choose the option “Ungroup” from the context menu.
14. Next, using the DIRECT selection tool, just click on the top anchor point and press “Delete” on the keyboard.
15. Afterward, go back to the Pathfinder tool and select the Unite Option to combine your shapes.
16. We will then get our first Leaf shape for the clover.
17. Add a fill colour of green to this shape to get your first leaf ready. You should also go for a darker green stroke if you like.
18. Then duplicate this leaf shape by pressing CTRL+C and CTRL+V. Do this two times.
19. Just, right mouse click on those new copies of the life and rotate them by choosing the option Transform -> Rotate…
20. Set one leaf to rotate at 90 degrees, while the other must be set to -90 degrees.
21. Then, just position your leaves accordingly to form the clover shape as you can see below.
22. Finally, use the pen tool to create the stem.
23. Just create a slight curve to make things look natural.
24. Great! Now you have a nice clover leaf. Just style it any way you like for your design theme.
Native Hawaiians constitute roughly 22 per cent of the state population, but they represent 54 per cent of the prison population.
They also have the lowest per capita income, the highest poverty rate and the shortest lifespan of any ethn...ic group in Hawai`i.
Hawai`i public school students receive very poor education by any standard of measurement. They consistently rank among the lowest of any state in test scores.
Most of the bright students who manage to learn something in spite of the handicapped school system leave Hawai`i for foreign colleges and careers.
Tens of thousands of residents have no medical insurance at all.
In some cases, the lives of the working poor are worse than the unemployed.
End The US Occupation & Free Hawai`i.
The state House of Representatives’ Hawaiian Affairs Committee on Wednesday recommended passage of a resolution recognizing Hawaiian Nationals as a population residing lawfully in the islands.
“It just brings more awareness to Hawaiian people as a whole,” said Rep. Dee Morikawa, D-16th District. “It’s about everyone in Hawai`i.”
House Resolution 68 formally recognizes the right of Hawaiian Nationals — defined in the document as the authentic heirs, beneficiaries and body politic of the Hawaiian Kingdom — to organize and restore their national government in Hawai`i.
It also commits to the state government to encourage courts and law enforcement to stop “nationality-based harassment and prosecution of Hawaiian nationals,” defined in the resolution as lineal descendants of Hawaiian Kingdom subjects, anyone born in Hawai`i or naturalized through a formal process.
Morikawa was one of the nine committee members who voted for the resolution. She said it’s still early in the process - the resolution still has to be heard by the House Judiciary and Finance committees. When that happens, language may change.
“It’s hard to say what will come out of it, but the intent is really good,” Morikawa said.
The term “Hawaiian National” is not to be confused with “Native Hawaiian,” which was coined by the US Congress to “narrowly define Hawaiians” according to aboriginal blood quantum, the resolution states.
“The state has on numerous occasions, and in official documents and statutes, including Act 195, Session Laws of Hawai`i 2011, affirmed that beginning in 1893, the United States violated the sovereignty of the Hawaiian Kingdom when it colluded with insurgents to usurp the government of the Hawaiian Kingdom,
“… International law clearly confirms that the sovereignty of the Hawaiian Kingdom was never relinquished or extinguished and that the Hawaiian Kingdom is “in continuity,” the resolution states.
All submitted testimony supports the resolution, including that from the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.
“The Native Hawaiian community generally agrees that the Hawaiian people’s claims to inherent sovereignty have never been relinquished. The Native Hawaiian community also generally agrees that repatriation of that unrelinquished inherent sovereignty is just and overdue,” states testimony from OHA to the House.
Aloha kakou he Hawaii au,
As Hawaiian Nationals, we are quite aware of "spies" in our midst. Spies were brought unto the Hawaiian Islands the day Kamehameha the Great gave up his warrior reputation for a statesman status. But in the late 1920's, Hawaii was known to be the "hot bed" of American flavored Communist wearing kabe or aloha shirts and even having the ability to play the ukelele or do the hukilau hula. Some were even known to be of the koko.
The 1930's brought Labor Unions namely, the ILWU, to the dock of Hilo and Honolulu as Longshoremen whose leadership of Jack Hall and Harry Bridges was questioned before the U. S. Congress even before Senator Joe McCarthy's
Committees on Un-American Activities of the Communist Party of the United States of America (CPUSA). The docks of Hawaiian Islands had been controlled even before the "alleged overthrow" of Queen Liliu'okalani by the "Big Five", and non-union Labor was a mere revolving door, until a Kanaka Maoli name Chicken Kamoku with a handful of locals stood up against the hired thugs from the mainland docks.
In the 1960's The East-West Center at the University of Hawaii came into existence and has produced some of the world's foremost Socialist in the World. Some say, Socialism is to Communism as Love is to Hate. What people say about this relationship or doctrine can only be validated by what they actual do to and for to other people. There is no guessing to their solutions. In fact, it is so ridiculous, most discard it as not so. Truly, the people of Hawaii are the utopia of slavery. No fences, no leg irons or neck shackles whips or dogs and even shared water fountains and toilets. Perfect slaves don't speak against tyranny or runaway. Hawaii had been molded into The Placebo Paradise of the Pacific.
Now in 2012, the "mainland thugs" are back in Hawaii but this time holding an "Elected Office" disguised as for the good of the people, to rape all resources of Ko Hawaii Pae Aina, from Ka'u in the South to Papahanau'akeomoku in the North. By, August of 2012, the U. S. Federal Elections will get hot and boiling or be just luke warm with pats on each "political partys' back for a job well done. However, most people will not even notice it at all. In fact, except for the equal value of a gallon of gasoline to a loaf of bread, most won't believe what is happening right before them as they empty pocket book.
I am also forwarding another article by Cliff Kincaid who reports of the effort of Glenn Beck printing a book or document on questionable people who are considered to be mentors of Barrack Hussein Obama which is more alarming than his alleged birth certificate. Mr. Abercrombie had shared these acquaintances in common, in fact he boost of his personal relationship with Barrack Obama's parents and grandparents.
In the past, I have sent you similar references and caution about the coming local and federal elections. I also have deep concerns of individuals like Donnavan Dela Cruz and Donalyn Dela Cruz who are "Railroading" legislation that exempts all development in Hawaii under the guise of Hawaii Community Development Authority (HCDA) and Hawaii Historical District, aka Chinatown which really encompasses Honolulu Waterfront Property from Kewalo Basin to Sand (Mokauea) Island that is destined to become the new Hong Kong Honolulu Harbor. I feel the "RAIL" of HART is a mere diversion of what is to come. The only thing preventing its implementation is the shit flowing through thousands of miles of sewer lines throughout Honolulu proper. The real question before all of us is how does one prevent shit from flowing? Very simple, turn the pipes vertical into space or get rid of assholes. As a Hawaiian National, I am not part of this circus but I deeply feel that I must give you and your ohana who are some insight on the issue before us, no matter what our Nationality is for we will all suffer together because of this greedy 10,000 leg he'e that plagues us.
I send you this not as maka 'ala but as e ala e!.
malama ke kino,
pilipo

Do you need to create your own custom made CD or DVD graphic for your digital or printed copy designs? While it may look complicated, replicating the look and feel of a DVD or CD item is actually fairly easy to do. This guide will show you the step by step process in creating one using Illustrator. So if you need a DVD graphic for your web designs, or print designs for booklet printing and brochure printing, then these are the steps that you should try to follow.
1. With a new document open, select the ellipse tool in the tools window.
2. Draw a circle in your canvass. Make sure it is sized right for your purpose as the base shape for the CD or DVD graphic. To make sure it is a perfect circle, hold down the shift key as you create it.
3. Now duplicate this new circle. Just Press CTRL+C and then CTRL+V to create an exact duplicate of our original circle.
4. Next, right click on the new circle and select Transform -> Scale…
5. Scale this new circle as with 95% of the original size.
6. Once done, you will have the smaller circle easily scaled down with the right proportions. Place it at the center of our CD graphic.
7. Next, duplicate the process three more times, using the larger circle as the base. Scale the other circles 30%, 20% and 15% respectively. Position them at the centre to get the desired effect.
8. Select the second to the largest circle and add the gradient colour in it. Use a white-lightgrey-white gradient combination. Also adjust the degree for the gradient to 45 degrees.
9. For Strokes, Choose a grey 1 pixel for the 2nd largest circle, and a light grey .5 pixel stroke for the largest circle.
10. Next, for the third circle, add a grey, white and grey gradient colour with 0 degrees angle. Use a 0.5px stroke for this circle.
11. For the fourth circle, use a light grey stroke at 1 pixel, but use a white fill.
12. For the fifth circle, use a light grey stroke at one pixel, but use no Fill.
13. Next, go back to our 2nd to the largest circle and duplicate it. Add a colour gradient with Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
14. Send it backward several times. Just right click on it, and then select Arrange->Send Backward. Keep doing it until you have reached this point. If it turned grey, you have gone too far and must bring the circle on layer on top.
15. Next, select Effect -> Stylize -> Feather to make the edges of this circle fuzzy.
16. Choose a 30pixel feather and press ok.
17. Finally, change the opacity of this colour layer. Reduce it to 25%, and use a normal blending method.
18. Once done, you should have a great looking CD/DVD graphic all your own.
19. Do not forget to group this set of circles so that you can easily manipulate them for your purpose. Select all the circles, right click on them and select group.
20. Now you can manipulate them easily. You can try changing their angles, or adding drop shadows. It all depends on your purpose.

Free Hawai`i means returning the Hawaiian Islands back to an independent nation status, as it was before it was illegally overthrown by US marines and rich sugar barons in 1893.
In 1993, President Clinton formally apologized for that act and publicly acknowledged the illegality of the overthrow.
DID YOU KNOW -
98% of all Hawaiians living at the time opposed the illegal overthrow.
Today, less than 20% of all land in Hawai`i is in Hawaiian hands.
Over 60% today is in non-Hawaiian hands!
A few individuals, who are non-Hawaiian, lease an amount of land in Hawai`i that is greater than all land leased to all Native Hawaiians!
Currently, only 72 landowners control 95% of all land in Hawai`i.
Native Hawaiians make up the largest percentage of homeless in Hawai`i today.
Native Hawaiians have the worst social, educational and economic indicators compared to any ethnic group in the US.
Native Hawaiians currently have the worst health profile compared to any ethnic group in the US.
Hawaiian Nationals want their country and land back so they can grow their own foods, become healthy once again, and control their own destiny.

Membership is open to the general public and as its base builds a periodic check by Hawaiian Nationals may be worthwhile as to how their campaigns are being orchestrated. You can read their vision and mission statements by clicking here:
