This schedule is the same as last year. “Due to safety and liability,” Edwards said, PreK stu- dents will not receive home visits from school personnel this year as they did last year. Teachers will make contact with parents to set up one-on-one enrollment appoint- ments at the schools Aug. 12-13 or will have social workers conduct visits if parents are not able to get to the schools. Staggered first days will occur Aug. 14-16, and all students will be together in the classrooms Aug. 19. With the new enrollment plan, “We are starting every- one a little earlier,” Edwards said. Response from parents is the highest Edwards has seen in a long time, she said, with only a spot or two remaining open per school. She continues to take applications until school begins.

  • Offworld Trading Company ​V1.21 Brings Updated Language Support
    Offworld Trading Company v1.21 brings updated ​ language support for both base game and DLCs The best selling economic real-time strategy game now have updated translations in Simplified Chinese, Russian, German, and more. Plymouth, MI. – November 1, 2018 - Today, Stardock announced the release of v1.21 for ​ Offworld Trading Company, a game in which players take on the role of entrepreneur and travel ​ ​ ​ to Mars for an economic showdown against rival companies. The version update improves localization for several languages and adds some balance updates that enhance the gameplay experience. In Offworld Trading Company, players buy out the competition and take control of the Martian ​ ​ market in a strategy game where money, not military force, is their greatest weapon. The ​ real-time, player-driven market is the foundation of the game, allowing players to buy and sell resources and materials - even the food and water that the colonists need to survive. Players will also have to deal with some underhanded black market methods of sabotage, like pirate raiders, hackers trying to disrupt production, covert electromagnetic pulses, and more. The game supports online match play with up to 8 players, as well as single player campaigns, skirmishes, or daily challenges. For more serious players, ranked ladder games will give them the opportunity to earn ranks and prove their worth. The v1.21 update adds improved localization in both the base game and all of Offworld Trading ​ Company’s DLC for the following languages: ​ ● Simplified Chinese ● German ● French ● Spanish ● Korean ● Polish ● Russian ● Brazilian Portuguese Offworld Trading Company is $19.99 through Steam or Stardock.

  • New Customization Tool, Curtains, Allows Users to Add Additional Style Modes to Windows 10
    New customization tool, Curtains, allows users to add additional style modes to Windows 10 Plymouth, MI - July 14, 2020 - Stardock released a new customization tool today. Curtains™ ​ ​ allows users to apply new styles along the lines of Dark Mode and Light to Windows® 10. ​ ​ Taking advantage of the groundwork built to support light and dark mode, Curtains includes several new styles including Fluent, Cairo, and Crystal mode that enhance the look and feel of the Windows UI along with apps that already support light and dark mode. "The advantage of using a program like Curtains is that it's essentially just adding new 'modes' to Windows," said Brad Wardell, CEO of Stardock. "It works with high DPI displays and your existing programs. This gives users a little extra touch of customizing the Windows experience." In addition, Curtains also includes styles that allow users to switch Windows to looking more like Windows XP or Windows 95 as well as alternative operating systems. Users can easily create and share their own styles using the built in style editor. A Curtains style can change everything that Light and Dark mode can change, including the Start button, title bar buttons, and title bar coloring. It also supports tweaking gradients, shadows opacity, and hundreds of other small elements of the Windows GUI. "Curtains makes it very easy for people to make their own styles," said Wardell. "There are a lot of customization features that have been buried in recent years such as font faces and sizes, detailed color choices and much more. Curtains allows people to adjust all of that and save it with their style easily.” Curtains is now available for $9.99, or through Stardock’s Object Desktop™ suite of desktop ​ ​ ​ ​ enhancements.
