Sup dudes?

I got a problem. I'm trying to build a site like this one
http://www.uc.pt/en (my university website)

and all I come to is this

Could you help me out to make something like the 1st website?

The slider itself, is made by using jquery. The website layout of course is css.

what i'm looking for is for guidelines.

for example that text there, is a huge text and it was supposed to do a line break but ir doesn't. I've tried word-wrap, line-break but nothing worked.
As you can see my JSlide isn't mine, but if you come with a simpler way to do the slide thing, i'd appreciate
Yeah what i'm looking for is CSS guidelines on how to do it, that's why I've posted in CSS/Styling forum.
