Sagres Bohemia: Special Six Pack

Sagres Bohemia is a gastronomic craft beer.

It’s three varieties make the perfect pairing with different meals and a good gather around the table.

With this in mind we made a special six pack that carries the beer and sets the table. This handcrafted pack can easily turn into a set of kitchenware ready to prepare and serve food.

A limited edition was sent to the 2016 Portuguese Michelin awarded chefs and some of the finest restaurants. Now, more are in the making for in-store promotion. So that everyone can have its own.

As CEO of WPP — the world’s biggest communications company — Martin Sorrell’s opinions count. This is particularly true in London, where WPP is based and where he’ll be talking to analysts and media on the group’s call tomorrow to discuss first-quarter earnings.

We know his opinion on the surprise U.K. general election (announced last week), which he told the BBC was “another excuse to do nothing” for British Prime Minister Theresa May.

Sorrell is not afraid to speak out against Google and Facebook either. In the wake of fake news and brand safety issues, Sorrell has called for them to stop masquerading as technology companies and take on the responsibilities of a media company.

Google celebra o belo e trágico ato final da sonda Cassini com doodle de hoje

A homenagem do doodle do Google hoje, 26 de abril de 2017, celebra o ato final da missão de 20 anos da sonda Cassini. Após viajar 3.5 bilhões de quilômetros, a nave vai entrar na atmosfera de Saturno, se auto-destruindo no processo.

Ad Trade Groups Unusually Quiet on Proposal to Mandate Language in Lawyers' Advertising


Advertising trade associations routinely fight new government restrictions on ads for tobacco, food, drugs and consumer finance, all on First Amendment grounds. Just on Monday, the Association of National Advertisers said it had filed a court brief opposing a Berkeley, Calif., ordinance requiring retailers to warn consumers about cellphone radiation.

But on one recent call for restrictions, the ANA and the American Advertising Federation are silent.

HP Inc. is advertising its commitment to reduce bias among its hiring managers with a new video that begins by showing a series of black job candidates on interviews that conclude with the dreaded words, “We’ll be in touch.”
