Best 20 Youtube Channels for Students
Here we're with a packed and well-checked list of YouTube channels.
YouTube is something which is known by every youngster these days. They're there all day long. Sometimes for the skill learning the purpose, sometimes for creative DIY kind of thing and entertainment. Spiritual, musical, purposes are also one of the reasons. But at the same time, YouTube is a platform from where students can learn also. From study material to motivational speeches, arts to science everything is up and there. But students in their full capacity don't have that much of time to surf and it shouldn't be done in that way either. Otherwise, their precious time and energy which should be channelized in a constructive way can get distracted. They'll be in front of million channels.
So, it can provide unlimited opportunities to enhance your eLearning course by not only using the countless videos you can find there but also creating your own to help your audience achieve their learning goals and objectives. The only thing you should pay attention to is ensuring that the videos you are using are aligned with your expected learning outcomes and are appropriate for your eLearning audience.
e-Learning is a medium of education. But usually, people don't take it with that much of seriousness. Old medium perceptions are also a big bundle of hurdles.

My love of travel really kicked in after I finished up at high school and since then I've tried to get to a new country each year. For me travel is what I live for as it opens up a world of new adventures and new flavours and of course lots of new and exciting food to try.
I thought it would be a cool idea to keep a world map below and mark off all the places that I've travelled to. I've highlighted the continents I've travelled to and if you hover over each continent a pop up will tell you what countries within that continent I've been to. Super excited to tick off America in early 2017!!
If you'd like to know how I go about planning my trips and my top travel tips then be sure to check out this page here.

The citizenry of Lakeland are totally fed up with the Police Department and Chief of Police Lisa Womack.
Womack has made nothing but a mess and laughing stock of the most costly department in our midst. I, for one, say it's past time for a wholesale clean-out.
I, like others, would like the city law enforcement and its funding turned over to Sheriff Grady Judd and the Polk County Sheriff's Office.
This is not a new concept. Jacksonville has this system in place and, from what I read, it's working fine.
Womack's "agency playing games" with The Ledger is nothing more than hiding misdeeds from the people paying the bills and this must be terminated. Lakelanders look to The Ledger as a watchdog to annunciate thieves, liars and otherwise unscrupulous people who somehow precipitate our city-run government and departments. Without it, heaven help us.Let's hear from all who are concerned about this vile, unethical bunch of no-goods, including the professional keepers of the law.
Use Sheriff's Office in Lakeland

Fragments of Stained Glass. By Claire Nicolas White. Mercury House. 230 pages. $18.95.
Claire Nicolas White, a distinguished poet, was born into an artistic family and married into another, with all the concomitant creativity, iconoclasm, and instability. The book is less a biography than a reverie, a fragmented chronicle of life in Europe and America over the last six decades. It tells of a world that no longer exists as it did before World War II and one which the present generation probably will never be able to understand thoroughly.
Joep Nicolas, Whites father, was an eminent Dutch stained-glass artist (hence the books title) who immigrated to America just before World War II. Her husband, Robert White, a sculptor, is the grandson of Stanford White, the architect, whose exuberant public life created difficulties for the family.
She describes well the pain, inconvenience, and dislocation of the European exile community in New York during the war. Life was hard (but not too hard) for those who were able to flee to America in the wake of Nazism. The young people were able to attend good schools and colleges that enabled them to be successful after the war, either in America or (if they chose to return) in Europe.
Claire Whites memories are both nostalgic and unvarnished in their clarity. She looks at parents, family, and husband unsparingly, which lends credibility to her account. The book lacks the sappiness of most personal memoirs and has an edge that is sometimes disconcerting. Her interactions with people like Aldous Huxley, a collateral relative, give a new perspective on that important literary figure.
Fragments of Stained Glass is a book in which Roman Catholicism is integral but rarely stated specifically. It is inseparable from the fabric or, one might say, the matrix of the stained glass.
Claire White, who came to America with little English, has mastered it. Hers is a book for all seasons, enhanced by subtle humor and a rare sense of tranquility and forgiveness.

Most Ancient of All Splendors. By Johann Moser. Sophia Institute Press. 94 pages. $14.95.
In a lecture originally delivered in the 1970s, John Wain lambasted a type of poetry still prevalent today: The years since 1960 have seen a mass turning-away from the notion of poetry as an art that [has] something in common with music, and towards a more or less improvisatory style which aims at one of two objectives: either to simulate the ravings of a drug-addict, or to inculcate very simple social messages. Wain added that this poetry flourishes better at poetry readings than on the printed page, being written not for those who wish to read, and ponder, and reread, but for those who need each others company in a crowded space and a poet up on the platform dealing with the latest important experience . Wains assessment is accurate to a point; what he failed to mention is that we are not actually told about important experiences, but about the insignificance of man. Droning about the mean-inglessness of it all when not joylessly celebrating the joys of lubricity, the architects of this present darkness in American poetry share with the reading public a peculiar gospel, having come that we might have dullness and ennui, and have them abundantly.
Turning from the poetic ash-heap, its a pleasure to encounter Johann Mosers first poetry collection, Most Ancient of All Splendors. Here is poetry that celebrates the enduring, the tragic, and the ennobling in culture, and that breathes with moral imagination. Mosers poems are carefully crafted vessels: beautiful artifacts of language. As the collections editor writes, each poem forms an integral, self-contained, and cohesive structure. In medieval terms, [Moser] seeks to achieve in each of his poems a splendor formae a radiance of formal unity.
The Christian (and specifically Catholic) vision of man held by Moser enables him poetically to declare at once the glory of humanity and its fallenness. These tendencies are tempered by an emphasis on celebration. Where T.S. Eliot would write of Gerontions waiting for death, dreaming with his dry brain in a dry season of being whirled in fractured atoms beyond the circuit of the shuddering Bear, Mosers Sheba (in Testament of Sheba) speaks of a cosmos in which God rides His green-bright Dolphin / Through planetary seas and astral oceans and where Tabernacles of the stars / Whirl in ancient ecstasy across the night.
The speakers in each poem, whether Moser, an unknown persona, or various identified personages, affirm a world of order and transcendent purpose. I am the term; I am the boundary stone, says the Church (in Terminus: Concedo Nulli). I concede, I have conceded, ground to none.
Elsewhere in Most Ancient of All Splendors are other poems well worth reading, written in a variety of traditional forms and employing poetic diction suitable to the poets intent. Especially worthwhile is the gentle Galileo: A Letter to His Daughter, with its view of the ordered universe as resembling a great dance, reminiscent of the vision of C.S. Lewis. Also notable is Homage to Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, in effect a stated hope and prayer for a spiritually renewed Russia.

John Ireland and the American Catholic Church. By Marvin R. O'Connell. Minnesota Historical Society Press. 610 pages. $27.50.
John Ireland became the third Bishop of St. Paul in 1884. Four years later, when the see was raised to metropolitan status, he became its first Archbishop. What sort of man was this major figure in American Catholic history? Whatever favorable descriptives might be brought forward and there are many saintly is not one that naturally suggests itself. He was certainly an essentially good man, walking unwaveringly in the ways of an iron-willed religious faith. But as far as our limited vision allows us to say, there seems to have been something missing. And that something, I suspect, was a sufficiently large contemplative component to his life. Irelands life was chiefly characterized by a too steady and unmitigated embroilment in public affairs. The world was too much with him, and that meant, of course, the rambunctious, progress-obsessed world of late 19th-century America. It was a time when growth was explosive, and altogether too many things appeared possible.
At a time when American Catholics were aligning themselves with the Democratic Party, Ireland was a staunch, life-long Republican and was quite close to Presidents McKinley and (Teddy) Roosevelt. Ireland was a consummate politician, both inside and outside the Church. His machinations in the realm of ecclesiastical politics are as intriguing as they are at times disconcerting. He was naturally combative, and in his dealings with certain of his peers in the hierarchy, for example, he had a way of too easily taking opponents for enemies. Given his warrior mentality, he could be a ruthless antagonist. The problem with this approach is that it tends to make the ultimate consideration not charity, but victory.
Ireland has been blessed in his biographers. Msgr. James M. Reardons The Catholic Church in the Diocese of St. Paul, published in 1952, contained a 222-page chapter on Ireland which constituted in itself almost a full-fledged biography. The following year Fr. James H. Moynihans Life of Archbishop John Ireland was published. Both are reliable sources, though the latter is oddly organized and tends at times toward hagiography. Now we have available truly a masterwork of biography in Marvin R. OConnells John Ireland and the American Catholic Church. Fr. OConnell, a professor of history at Notre Dame, is himself a native Minnesotan and a priest of the Archdiocese of St. Paul.
Contemporary biographers evince a propensity for producing large, ungainly tomes whose organization is fractured and whose style is ponderous works decidedly short on art. This is emphatically not the case with OConnells biography of Ireland. His labors of research and writing have met with wonderful success, giving us a gem of scholarship which reads like a novel. The book is one of the best biographies written in this country in recent years.

The Believers. By Janice Holt Giles. University Press of Kentucky. 214 pages. $9.
Oh, the evil that is done in the name of piety! Rebecca Coopers anguished cry announces the theme of this superb novel (first published in 1957 and now reissued) that explores the elements of Shaker religiosity in early 19th-century Kentucky. Swept up in the spiritual awakening that convulses the region, Rebeccas husband, Richard, shivers with the ecstasies of brush-arbor revivalism. When this fever cools, he finds fresh inspiration in the gospel expounded by Shaker missionaries who are scouting the frontier in search of recruits. Their world-blasting asceticism repels Rebecca, but for Richards sake, she muffles her aversion and joins him at the newly established Shaker community at South Union, near Bowling Green. Rebecca abhors the Shakers Manichaean contempt for the physical world, a revulsion so strong that it compels them to condemn procreation.
Although Janice Holt Giles rejects the sentimental notion of Shakers as simply kindly and benevolent folk who devoted themselves mainly to crafting exquisite furniture, she does not paint them in unrelievedly gloomy hues. In the Foreword she confesses her great respect for them; they were, she avers, a gentle, dedicated, innocent people. But in this innocence lies the rub. At the end of the story Rebecca, long since departed from the Shaker utopia, reflects on her experiences with the Believers. The most devoted of them were good people, as they saw goodness, she recalls. My quarrel with them was that their conception of goodness made no allowance for any other mans and that, I felt, was tyranny. It was the tyranny of innocence, but I saw evil come of it, exactly as evil comes of all tyranny, for innocence is no guarantor of goodness.
Masks of Satan: The Demonic in History. By Christopher Nugent. Christian Classics. 216 pages. $14.95.
The Father of Lies is the Prince of Appearances, Christopher Nugent declares in defining the governing idea of Masks of Satan. The devil of popular imagination the cartoonish figure of cloven hoofs, forked tail, and obscene leer does not stalk these pages. In wrestling with the question of evil, Nugent identifies the masks Satan has donned in the course of Western civilization from the ancient Greeks to Hebrews to the 20th century, from Dionysus, inspirer of fiendish ecstasy, to the demonocracy foisted upon the world by Hitler and the Nazis.
Nugent reduces Satans disguises to three essential types. The first mask of Satan, he contends, is that of the Rebel who defies God and curses the sway of heaven. In another guise, Satan appears as an elemental compound of Narcissism and Nihilism. Finally, there are the sacraments of Satan: any fetish from phallicism to what the old world called filthy lucre. Masks of Satan will disappoint those who dote on sensationalism, for Nugent believes that the demonic is neither exotic nor remote; it is very near. It is of men rather than monsters, and we have seen the horrors of historical fact exceed the vilest horrors of gothic fantasy. Truth is more frightening than fiction.
Nugent does not leave the last word to the powers of maleficence; it goes instead to the antidote to evil the divine love that breathes the current of life into the Cosmos. He concludes his engaging study on a note resonant with hope: The antidote to the wolf of man is the Lamb of God.
The House of Twilight. By Yun Heung-gil. Readers International. 233 pages. $9.95.
Yun Heung-gil was wounded into brutal reality by the Korean War, a calamity that crashed upon his native land when Yun was eight years old. He witnessed the fabric of his nation rent by conflicting ideologies, Martin Holman points out in his informative Introduction to The House of Twilight, a collection of seven of Yuns short stories. And, in his literature, Holman continues, he has portrayed families ravaged by those clashes both from within and without. But because his narrators are often children, the ideological struggle is presented obliquely.
The poignance of a childs perspective appears most effectively in The Rainy Spell, where a boy is buffeted by the strife between his grandmothers. One woman has lost a son to the South Korean cause, while the other has a son who is hiding out in the mountains with a band of Communist partisans. Reminders of the savagery of war come not so much in graphic descriptions of death and. destruction something too massive for a child to grasp but in commonplace details and unobtrusive observations. In The Rainy Spell, for example, the narrator notes the villages three or four dogs that were lucky enough to survive the war. In Fuel, an account of a familys struggle to endure, the narrator, now grown to manhood, recalls the privations of the 1950s. I still cant understand why my family had to worry about fuel so constantly when we had so little to cook with it. In such unpretentious moments of revelation lies the affecting power of these stories. One understands why, as Holman mentions, Yun is regarded as one of the rising stars of Korean literature.
The Letters of Evelyn Underhill. Edited by Charles Williams. Christian Classics. 343 pages. $14.95.
He [God] expects us to behave with common sense even in regard to His graces, doesnt He? Evelyn Underhill, the Anglican authority on mysticism, had a short fuse when it came to tomfoolery committed in the name of spirituality. She evinced no patience with the popular notion of mysticism as a solipsistic flight into a cloud of ineffability. Upon the scores of correspondents who sought her guidance (given freely and generously, as these letters, first published in 1943, indicate), she pressed an unsentimental realism that often dismayed those inflamed with spiritual fevers. Move away from the vivid, passionately rapturous type of reaction, she cautions one neophyte. She condemned all psychic tricks, gimmicks, and ploys that promised a shortcut to union with the divine. I think it is better, really, she urged, to teach at once the hard and wholesome doctrine that the attitude of adoration and humility is what matters and that spiritual realization is secondary to this, and can only be prepared for, not obtained, by our deliberate conscious effort.
Underhill deprecated the kind of spiritual loftiness that tempts an ardent seeker to disdain less advanced believers. She bluntly reminded such elitists of the inner life that they belonged to the body of Christ and were bound irrefragably to the most prosaic of Christs followers. Enter into the interests of others, however twaddley, she commanded a correspondent. Her firm sacramentalism God coming into our souls by means of humblest accidents demanded that the quest for spiritual ecstasy be rooted in quotidian realities.

Baghdad falls / JUBILATION / Marines stumble upon a moment frozen in history
2003-04-10 04:00:00 PDT Baghdad -- One minute the Marines were creeping along shot-up neighborhoods, looking to fight Iraqi militia or Fedayeen Saddam guerrilla fighters.
The next minute they were in downtown Baghdad, hauling down a giant statue of Saddam Hussein to the cheers of suddenly free Iraqis in one of those moments that get seared into history.
What a difference an hour makes.
The 3rd Battalion, 4th Marines marched into a major plaza of downtown Baghdad on Wednesday to the wild cheers of local residents and grateful embrace of the international media.
Just 15 minutes earlier, they had been mounting rooftops, looking for men with AK-47 automatic rifles and rocket-propelled grenades.
"This certainly isn't the end," said the battalion commander, Lt. Col. B.P. McCoy, at the plaza. "I don't want to give the wrong impression. There's still a lot of fighting to be done. But this is a momentous day."
The Marines came into central Baghdad feeling like liberators. They arrived at al-Firdos Square, in front of the Palestine and Sheraton hotels, home to the international press corps covering the war from here.
Several hundred Iraqis poured into the square. "Saddam no, Bush yes," a gleeful boy shouted.
Then some in the crowd attacked a giant statue of Hussein that dominated the square. First a couple of sturdy young men climbed the 25-foot pedestal and tied a rope about the statue. Then they moved to the base and used sledgehammers, breaking chunks out of it.
Nothing seemed to work. It looked like the bronzed Hussein, with his right arm raised, would survive, until McCoy got permission from his superiors to use an armored vehicle to help bring down the statue.
The tank company used a machine known as a "tank retriever," a huge machine with a 1,300 horsepower engine. It's normally used to fix broken tanks and haul them out of mud and sand.
In a less than diplomatic move, one Marine climbed the statue and wrapped a U.S. flag around Hussein's face. The sudden quietness of the crowd indicated this was not a good idea. That flag was replaced by an Iraqi flag. That, too, was removed before the Marines resumed the serious business of pulling the statue down.
They tied a cable around the figure of Hussein, connecting it first at the groin region of the statue, for some reason, and then around the neck. And, finally, pulled him down.
People cheered and yelled and jumped on the fallen statue, beating it with sledgehammers. Someone removed the head and dragged it around the neighborhood.
Iraqis hugged Marines. Marines hoisted their rifles.
Pulling down a tyrant's statue was in marked contrast to the work the 3rd Battalion, 4th Marines, part of the 1st Marine Division, had been doing lately.
They'd been used to going after regular Iraqi army units around Basra, then taking on irregular militia and Fedayeen groups along the route from Basra to Baghdad.
The Marines fought tough battles in Diwaniya and Kut, and engaged in serious firefights on the bridge over a canal on the eastern edge of Baghdad. They lost three Marines to Iraqi fire in those engagements.
Wednesday had started out with Marine tanks and infantry moving toward central Baghdad just after dawn, anticipating more confrontations with militia forces.
About a half-mile in, they met resistance. Militiamen dug in around crossroads fired rockets and small arms. The Marines responded with tanks and heavy machine guns.
Later, the wreckage of burnt cars still littered the roadway, dead Iraqis lying nearby.
The Marines moved on, mounting snipers on rooftops and blocking the roadway to civilians. Occasionally, a car would approach, only to be shooed away with a warning shot.
One car approached an intersection that was guarded by a tank and a humvee with a .50-caliber machine gun. The driver hit the brakes and backed up.
"He doesn't know how lucky he is," said Chief Warrant Officer 2 Gene Coughlin of Twentynine Palms (San Bernardino County).
The Marines have shot up a lot of cars that were driving toward checkpoints,
fearing they were militia or Fedayeen making suicide runs.
"If he drives past that light pole, you can shoot," Coughlin said. "If he keeps coming in the face of all of this, he knows what he's getting into."
Meanwhile, there was gunfire in the distance, heavy machine guns and tank cannons.
The Marines pushed on. Into nothing.
No Fedayeen, no militia, no Republican Guard.
Just apartment buildings and Iraqi citizens, smiling and waving from their balconies.
Then the press corps showed up. They'd lost their escorts and minders earlier in the day, and felt at risk from looters, robbers and Fedayeen.
When McCoy saw them, he asked permission from senior officers to proceed to the Palestine and Sheraton hotels area, where the Marines would set up a defense for the press corps and for local hospitals. Permission granted.
That led to what turned into the triumphant march to al-Firdos Square and the toppling of the Hussein statue, a picture the Marines knew would be an instant symbol seen round the world.
The Americans, for the most part, were treated as conquering heroes. Young Iraqis put flowers in the pockets of their body armor. Kids begged for money.
There was a lot of smiling and laughing. One Iraqi slapped high-fives at passing Marines and Western reporters.
Some American and European "human shields" were there, anti-war activists who had come to Baghdad and placed themselves in front of power plants and other potential targets. They chastised the Marines for attacking Iraq and promoting war.
That angered some of the soldiers. "I didn't bury two of my fellow Marines just so someone like that could call us murderers," said one, angry and teary, referring to an Iraqi artillery attack that killed two of his colleagues on Monday. "They died for this country."
Meanwhile, two Iraqis held up a sheet bearing the message: "Go home Human Shields, you U.S. Wankers."
The Marines posed for pictures with Iraqis and traded knickknacks. At one point, two rifle shots rang out. The crowd scattered and the Marines went to check it out. Nothing was found, but some of the more experienced troops worried that the party atmosphere could be spoiled by an attack.
As if it were a sign, the rumble of artillery and bombing could be heard in the distance.
With that, McCoy sighed and sat down in the middle of the square as dusk fell. Young children and parents stopped by to shake his hand and smile. One man kissed his cheek and hugged him, saying, "U.S. Army, good."
McCoy smiled and said, "Marines."
One young boy walked up and shook McCoy's hand. The battalion commander took off his helmet and placed it atop the boy's head, then leaned back and smiled.
"U.S. good," the boy said. "No more Saddam."

Acne Treatment
Adult acne can be a very difficult problem to treat and can make you very self-consicous. Dr. Matt Goldschmidt in Cleveland, Ohio may be able to help with treating your acne. Dr. Goldschmidt has experience treating acne both with medical therapies and surgical options. Many times, patients will require both treatments either at the same time or at different times to improve their complexion.
Acne is due to sebum that is stuck under the skin and begins to get inflamed and infected. Sebum is made by sebaceous glands and the pores in the skin allow the sebum to make its way to the surface. In acne sufferers, these pores become clogged due to overproduction of sebum caused by hormones or other factors. It is necessary to reduce the sebum production (through medication) and sometimes use an antibiotic to help fight infected glands. Over time, these chronic infections can lead to scarring. This is where surgery may be helpful to help reduce the scars and to help camouflage the damage caused by acne. Surgery may include laser treatment, dermabrasion, and/or direct excision of the acne scars. Often, Dr. Matt Goldschmidt, will use a combination of surgical methods to help improve your skin's appearance and give you the best acne treatment possible!


text: Residential Water Pressure Explained Good water pressure is something most homeowners take for granted. There's nothing worse than coming home from a hard day at work, looking forward to a nice shower, only to be met by trickling water due to low pressure. On the other hand, excessively high pressure can be a source of great stress and frustration. From joints to supply lines to faucets, damage can occur throughout the plumbing system; high pressure will also keep your water bill higher than it should be. Below, we'll take a look at how water pressure is generated, and why it matters. How Is Water Pressure Created? Most residential areas receive their water from a municipal water provider. Many areas utilize groundwater sources, but surface water - reservoirs, lakes and rivers - makes up the bulk of municipal supplies. Whatever the source, water is typically pumped to treatment facilities, and then to pressure tanks located at high points throughout the distribution area (in some communities, tall water towers are used). The height of these tanks relative to the distribution area - along with the weight of the water - is what generates pressure. The higher the tank, the greater the pressure. The pressurized water moves from the tank to the water mains that feed the community. Depending on the circumstances of the area, booster stations may be located throughout, which use pumps to maintain pressure in the distribution system. In areas where pressure becomes too high, pressure reducing stations transfer high-pressure water to low-pressure areas, maintaining manageable levels throughout the system. Helpful Hint: Private residential wells use a pressure tank and switch to control the water pressure. These are most commonly set at 30-50 psi, turning on the pump at 30 psi and off at 50 psi. What Should My Water Pressure Be? Many factors influence the final water pressure you get in your home. The elevation of the building relative to both the height of the tank/tower and the location of the water main can make a significant difference, as can the size of the main and the number of homes connected to it. A service line (the pipe connecting the home to the main) not properly sized for the home's needs can also affect the final pressure at the tap. Pro Tip: Once water is in your home's plumbing system, there are many ways pressure can be decreased - blocked pipes, clogged filters or aerators, sediment-laden water heaters and plain old leaks are typical culprits. Residential water pressure tends to range between 45 and 80 psi (pounds per square inch). Anything below 40 psi is considered low and anything below 30 psi is considered too low; the minimum pressure required by most codes is 20 psi. Pressures above 80 psi are too high. Whereas low water pressure is more of a nuisance than a serious problem (some fixtures, like washing machines, have minimum pressure requirements), high water pressure carries with it a significantly increased risk of damage to pipes, joints, fixtures and seals - not to mention increased water waste. How Do You Measure and Correct Water Pressure? Water pressure can be easily measured and monitored with a simple, inexpensive water pressure gauge that threads onto any hose bibb. "Lazy hand" gauges feature an additional high-level indicator, which remains stuck at the highest pressure experienced until the gauge is reset. This type of gauge can let you know if you're experiencing any spikes of high pressure, which can also cause problems. To reduce high pressure in a home, you'll need a Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV). In fact, these are often required by code for pressures beyond 80 psi. These devices do exactly what they say, reducing pressures of up to 400 psi down to a reasonable level of your choosing (most are factory set at 45 psi). Note: PRVs are typically installed just after the water meter. If the residence being served by the PRV has a water heater, most codes require that an expansion tank be added to the water heater. This is because PRVs have an internal check valve that only allows water to flow one way, preventing water on the house-side of the PRV from going back the other way. This is a problem with water heaters because of thermal expansion (the expansion of water as it's heated). In a non-PRV system, water is pushed back toward the main by increased pressure from the expansion. Since a PRV prevents that from happening, an expansion tank is necessary to accommodate the increased volume and pressure. Without the tank, pressure will build throughout the home plumbing system until a fixture is used, potentially leading to damage. More Resources: For those cursed with low water pressure, we have some helpful advice in our article "What You Can Do About Low Water Pressure".

Update: I am pleased to announce availability of my 'en & Ink Drawing Workbooks at Amazon and other online retailers. You can get more information about them here. With fully illustrated examples and hands on exercises, they are a great way to get started drawing with pen and ink. Available for just $6 (US) , try them today.
A bush can generally be categorized in one of the following two categories:
- Dense Bush with few visible twigs:
- Twigs are prominent with foliage light and airy
Different techniques are appropriate for drawing bush where foliage is dense compared to bush where twigs are prominent as discussed below.
Drawing a Foliage Prominent Bush:
Drawing a bush with prominent foliage is very similar to drawing deciduous tree foliage and distant foliage. If you haven't gone through those tutorials, I recommend you look at them first to understand the basic shape and stroke to render a foliage.
In the following approach, the top of a foliage mass is initially drawn and used to lay out foliage mass. This is similar to how distant foliage is done, except that the size is bigger for a bush. Also, 'leaf' or scribble stroke should be used instead of parallel lines as a bush is usually closer with more details (foliage) visible.
Layers of bush can be done in the same manner as a distant foliage. Also, some visible thin branches can be added to give it more interest as shown below.
Drawing a Bush Farther Out:
As discussed in drawing deciduous foliage tutorial, as foliage goes out in distance, it becomes smaller in size and layers of foliage can't be properly depicted. In this case, draw initial bush foliage using leaf/scribble stroke and then darken some places, especially the bottom to add some volume and depth as depicted below.
Drawing a Bush in Outline:
If a bush is at sufficient distance and is surrounded by other elements like trees, fences or background tree line, then it is sometimes desirable to leave bush light so that there is separation of elements. In this case, a bush can be simply depicted by outline as shown below. The mind interprets it as a bush.
Drawing a Twig Prominent Bush:
For drawing a bush where twigs are prominent, first draw twigs of the bush that are showing and then add foliage between them as shown below. Twigs for a bush should be drawn using 'thin branch' technique discussed in Drawing Branches Tutorial.
By changing the structure of twigs and foliage density different type of such bush can be drawn as shown below.
Drawing a Bush with Twigs Farther Out:
In this case, draw twigs as solid tapering lines and use dots or very small marks to indicate foliage as shown below.
This completes the tutorial for drawing bush. Use the templates below to practice. You can find many more templates to practice drawing bush in mini landscapes.
Click here to download PDF file with templates to practice drawing a bush as shown above.
You can find video demonstration of drawing bush at my YouTube channel.
Following are some of my drawings where bush is used to add to the ambience and set the mood.

The kids worked on their valentines today. I bought some pastel card stock and cut out a bunch of hearts, and the kids put stickers on them. John wrote names on his. Maia put all the Hello Kitty puffy stickers on one of hers and announced it was going to her preschool teacher. John put one Muppet sticker on each of the boys' valentines, and one Hello Kitty sticker on each of the girls' valentines.
Except for one. That one got three sparkly hearts artfully placed. John signed his name on it carefully and set it aside. I glanced at it and suggested that he spell her name right because girls like that. And I'm sure she'll like the three sparkly hearts, too.

Yesterday while journaling I found myself whining again about time, and my perceived lack thereof. Between work and chores, a project Linda and I are working on, which I'll wait to write about until after a critical meeting this morning that will likely decide the fate of the project for this year (we'll do it, some how, some way, but today's meeting will determine to what extent), and assorted stuff, time seems ever more the enemy.
I finished journalling for the day and sat down at my desk to write...not for the book I've actually dared to begin--finally--but this post....it's words, thoughts, creativity, and a good place to warm-up those writing muscles. It's writing and that's good. ANYWAY, I tore off the previous day's calendar page and was greeted by this:
And this past week I took on another project. In looking for a practical way to expand our kitchen storage, we stumbled upon this in a small, hole-in-the-wall shop:
I'm pretty sure it dates back to 1917-1930 based on internet research, but I have a book coming that should give me more info.These cabinets were designed to make life easier for womyn, and sometimes, when opening one of the latches, I touch the cool, worn chrome and wonder about the womon who first owned this. I found a store's ad for one, dating to 1930...it was "$49.95, $1 down and $1 a week", which in 1930 was alot of money. A couple of nifty websites tell me that $49.95 in 1930 would be $681.91 today, and that $1 a week was the equivalent of $13.65 today. So who was the womon who wanted this MacDougall? Is she the one who glued the patterned tissue paper to those four tiny windows, or did someone else do that? Was she excited to have a hoosier-style cabinet? Did it make her life easier? The ads for MacDougall cabinets were somewhat daring and different; while other cabinet makers' ads showed aproned womyn serenely rolling pie crust and preparing dinner in this one-stop workspace, one MacDougall ad showed the cabinet with no person in front of it, just a stool with an apron draped over it...to hint that it had saved the womon so much time she was able to go off and do...something...else with that newly found time. Another ad shows a man at a desk with a MacDougall behind him, saying something like, if a man worked in the kitchen, the MacDougall would be the cabinet he would choose.
But the first womon who owned this particular cabinet (henceforth to be called a cupboard because cabinet sounds so...harsh)....was she excited about it? Was it a wedding present? Did she smile when she walked in the kitchen and saw it? What did she dream about as she prepared food for her family? And how did it end up in Time Machine Antique Collective in Ravena, NY, definitely worse for the wear, stripped of its proud MacDougall metal tag, missing its flour bin and bread drawer, with a broken floor? Who amputated those parts and why? How many people have brought it home since that first womon first laid her palm on the cool enameled worktop, fingered those latches, stocked it with her mixing bowls and rolling pins, filled the flour bin with silky white flour that puffed clouds in the air as it was being poured into the bin?
I may be disturbingly attached to the MacDougall, but some of that is about who came before....about the life it had over the last 80+ years, because it wasn't just a decorative piece; it wasn't just an end table or a vase. It was once a workhorse, with a real purpose. We'll paint the MacDougall, remove the paper from those little windows, and slowly bring it back to something resembling its youth, while also returning it to the workforce. Already big jars of Linda's bees' honey are lined up on top next to the stand mixer. Appliances, utensils and a big jar of red lentils are tucked away, and we've already made use of having an extra work surface. To me, the MacDougall isn't just another pretty, if timeworn, face....she's a story waiting to be read.

BBC News (30 July 2014)
Drama is popular and vibrant at Haygrove School with pupils from Year 7 to Year 11 studying the subject as both a practical and an academic discipline. Lessons are designed to promote imagination and creativity within a structured framework.
Drama is a life skill and a creative art form. It helps pupils develop their ability to use voice, movement, gesture and facial expression, in acting, mime, dance drama and improvisation. They can express and manage their thoughts and feelings – shared and experienced – while working in a safe and controlled environment. The development of these skills encourages self confidence and self awareness. It promotes the development of the individual in a group context: roles and ideas are negotiated, problems solved and decisions made together.
The Drama curriculum at Key Stage 3 enables pupils to explore, develop and express ideas and concepts which will help them make sense of reality. Every pupil has the equivalent of one hour per week for Drama in Years 7 and 8. In Year 9, Music, Drama and Art operate a carousel where there are two lessons per week over a shorter period of time.

One of the problems that entrepreneurs have to figure out is where they are going to be located. When it comes to business, one of the major factors to success is the location of the business. Therefore, one has to think very hard about where he is going to establish himself. For one thing, if the business is not online only, then the entrepreneur is going to have to think it through when it comes to where he is going to be located. There are a lot of factors to think about when it comes to location. Among these things are demographics, culture, and population.
One good place to be located is Roberto Santiago's Mall. However, it is important that people know what it takes to succeed in this type of mall. For one thing, it is a very unique type of mall in that each store has something unique to offer. Therefore, it is important for one to think about how his business is going to stand out. Fortunately, there are many different ways to stand out. Some of them are more effective than others. However, it is important for one to decide on the ways that he is going to stand out from the competition. Read more on blogdogordinho.com
One thing to consider is that there are many different industries in Roberto Santiago Manaira Shopping Mall. Some industries are harder to manage than others. For instance, the entertainment portion of the mall already has games and movies as well as a concert auditorium. However, when it comes to fashion and retail, this is the easiest industry to get into at Manira Shopping.
The only thing is that one has to offer unique products in order to attract long time customers. Another thing is marketing skills when it comes to success in Manaira Mall. People need to first know that the shop exists in the mall. Therefore, the business owner has to figure out all of the advertising spaces he could use in order to let customers know about the shop. This is also a good way to let customers know of the location.

Mitosis is the process where one cell divides into two cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell, while meiosis is the process where one cell divides into four cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. The processes have very similar steps. In humans, all cells undergo mitosis except the gametes, which undergo meiosis.Continue Reading
Following are the steps involved in mitosis and meiosis:
Meiosis consists of two nuclear divisions, which is needed for asexual reproduction. The division results in haploid cells called gametes, which is referred to as reduction division because the number of chromosomes is reduced by half.
All living things are made of preexisting cells, but before mitosis or meiosis can take place, the cell must duplicate its chromosomes and produce everything needed for cell division. This is accomplished during interphase, which is divided into the G1 phase, S phase and finally the G2 phase. Once a cell has gone through interphase, it will then undergo mitosis or meiosis.Learn more about Cells

Ever wanted to be a DJ?
Turntable.fm lets you. It's a web app that is sort of like an online club scene.
You join a room, and there are 5 DJ spots available. If there's a free spot, you can become a DJ yourself. Once you're a DJ, you can search for music to add to your playlist, or you can upload your own. Each DJ gets a turn to play the song at the top of their playlist. (Once a song is played, it cycles to the bottom.)
Your chosen song then plays for everyone in the room. They can vote on whether it's "Lame" or "Awesome." Too many lame votes, and the song is skipped and it moves on to the next DJ. Awesome votes give you DJ Points, which you can use to improve your avatar.
It's an excellent way to hang out and share your music with friends, if you're not all together.
It's currently in beta right now, but I guess you can log in via Facebook, if one of your friends is on there (which I am.)
Check it out: Turntable.fm

how to assign OMG moments to created wrestlers in WWE 2K15 PS3
Started by hbk4life32 , Apr 13 2018 08:45 AM

Posted 13 April 2018 - 08:45 AM
I have a creation of Lita in WWE 2K15 for PS3 and I want to assign her the Suicide Dive OMG moment. I looked it up and it says it requires the Outside Dives ability and one stored finisher. She has Outside Dives, and I set her to infinite finishers, and I still can't do it. Is there something else I need to do, or is it not possible to assign it on the PS3 version? Any help will be appreciated.
Posted 13 April 2018 - 09:29 AM
Maybe you can't assign Suicide OMG moments to women? Try assigning one to a non-CAW woman (if possible) and try assigning one to a male CAW.
Posted 13 April 2018 - 10:41 AM
I don't have any male CAWS, but I gave AJ Lee Outside Dives and nothing. Rey Mysterio has Outside Dives and he can't do it, so there has to be something else other than Outside Dives that turns it on.
Posted 13 April 2018 - 10:43 AM
Also, I don't know why I wouldn't be able to because I have a female CAW that has the double chokeslam OMG
Posted 13 April 2018 - 11:14 AM
Are you using the right set up to do the move? Groggy opponent against the ropes.
Posted 13 April 2018 - 12:21 PM
Yes, I have them groggy against the ropes. The OMG icon doesn't come up. And here's something weird. Luke Harper does it, but he doesn't even have Outside Dives.
Posted 20 April 2018 - 04:45 PM
I recently found out that it requires the outside diver skill. How do I equip it in the PS3 version of the game, or isn't it available on the PS3 version?
Posted 29 May 2018 - 08:52 AM
I just got a response from 2K and they told me that I can equip the Outside Diver Skill on the PS3 version, but they didn't tell me how to do it.
Posted 29 May 2018 - 09:21 AM
Sometimes after they send another e-mail asking "how did we do?" or "did we answer your question?" Give them a bad review or just e-mail back asking how to do it.
Posted 31 May 2018 - 07:03 AM
They just told me to go to creations > Move Set > Skills. I do that, but the Skills page does not exist. Do I possibly have a bad game disc?
Posted 01 June 2018 - 08:08 PM
I don't know what to say. Just let it go and accept that fate doesn't want your CAW to have an OMG moment.
Posted 09 August 2018 - 12:40 PM
I've been told that I can copy CM Punk's move set to my Lita Caw, since he has the OMG Suicide Dive, and then change the moves to accommodate Lita's, but I still can't do the OMG Suicide Dive with her. Maybe I'm doing something wrong when I try that.

MLA is the Modern Language Association style for formatting and writing research papers. Amongst various writing styles, MLA research paper writing style is generally used for specific areas of research mainly dealing with literature and cultural studies. Any style needs to be planned and selected at a very early stage of writing the research papers, like in the research proposal stage or in the research paper outlining stage itself.
Like with APA research writing style, MLA also is meant to standardize research paper writing around different areas that helps the readers to steer and grasp a text more easily by providing familiar formatting when referring to sources and references. This encourages consistency in writing and helps writers maintain the same format of writing and citation throughout his research papers which is crucial for effective research and practice.
MLA research paper writing style standardizes mainly four areas of the research paper:
• Structuring or organization of the content- pagination concepts. A typical example in MLA pagination style is "Sims 21" or "Sims 43". This depicts the surname of the writer, a space and then the page number itself. This needs to be written at the right hand corner of every page in the research paper.
• Style of writing- MLA style specifies the names and order of headings, arrangement of tables, headers and footnotes, appendices etc.
• Providing citations or references- in MLA style, there is a permission of providing in-text citation. So if any sentence has been picked from a borrowed source, right after the sentence the citation can be provided in brackets.
• Bibliography- For MLA style, you need information like author's name, title of his work, publication date, publication city and publishing company
MLA research paper writing style is typically set aside for writers and students preparing document in various humanities disciplines such as:
• English or Foreign language and literature
• Literary Analysis
• Relative Literature
• Cultural Studies
• Arts subjects
• Social Studies
It usually takes some time to become familiar with this style of writing and it is advisable to start understanding the general formatting requirements of MLA Style prior to going into specifics like bibliography. Later one can as well as look at the different standards for notation that MLA writers are expected to use. MLA is different than other simplified writing styles like APA; hence it is important to pay attention to every detail of the Style, from general paper layout to abbreviations.
Any style of writing first needs to be understood in absolute terms before starting to write. You can get great research paper help in case if you want to understand MLA research paper writing style in detail or even look at buying research paper samples.

Past News ReleasesRSS
Boston, MA (PRWEB) September 20, 2016
imageSurge, a pioneer in the development of Intelligent Brick-and-Mortar Storefront solutions, was named one of three finalists for National Retail Federation's Shop.org "Digital Commerce Startup of the Year" award. Finalists are recognized by NRF's Shop.org as the most promising rising stars in the retail industry. Past selections include Jet.com, an e-commerce retailer purchased by Walmart.
"The Digital Commerce Startup of the Year competition is all about discovering the hidden gems of the industry, the ones on the verge of completely transforming the shopping experience or retail as a whole," said Artemis Berry, Vice President, Digital Retail, Shop.org and the NRF. "As the storefront is an area ripe for disruption, our judges were excited to name imageSurge as one of our three finalists."

Cherry Vineyards
With so much going on today in this country. While I am posting this I am rather sick of hearing of President Trump's recent decisions and the firestorms over it. Do not take me wrong the way his executive order is not well thought out along with presented. Also the mention of how political views are picking and over stuffing the basket of opinions. So many are cherry picking a reason to raise Cain over what. When we should take a step back and take a breath.
Totally idiotic by the way presented. And how the rule of procedure on going about his order.
So many are cherry picking, mostly media on what to report and have the talking heads back and forth of why he is doing this and that and have a reason to defend or attack. Here you can insert your opinion, done heard it all. Sure my heart goes out to those trapped in a situation that is unjust. So true, my heart goes out who lives are in fear of what is going to happen and already in a situation no one of us would want to be in.
However in the big picture with President Trump's promise he did not waste any time. And it is a valid reason to take serious steps to insure no bad guys slip in.
Hot topic on many levels, in my opinion there are those who are throwing fuel on the fire. Which again in my opinion gives a negative image of who we are as a people. Expressing opinions and solidarity is the American way however with certain groups from the range of the famous to back lot organizations taking opportunity to rile up many. And most of the people are raising hell to be the It crowd. Also there are those doing everything possible to be self serving. For their own agenda.
It will all be worked out and now those seeing what they should do. Will get on the ball about doing things right and speeding up the process of getting it over with quickly and efficient. When we prolong the back and forth of distain. Does not serve us well. We are a emotional people but should be tempered with we had our say. Now see in the days ahead whether more needs to be said. To over and over spout contempt for those who are on the opposite side. Let us give peace a chance, a chance to give people their due dignity and respect. Also to take care of the prime objective of what he is trying to do.
Everyone can return their regular programming of following the leaders of discontent whoever is doing so, and keep this mess going so more talking heads can carry on when we should take a step back. This is the end on my thoughts of the matter.
Help those who are truly caught in the middle, and still do what is in the best interest of the country.
