The journalism students are going to New York City a couple days before Spring Break begins to attend the CSPA Journalism Spring Conference.
The students will be flying over to New York through Southwest airlines. For some kids this will be their first time flying.
"I'm very nervous because I haven't own before and I am freaking out," Fletcher said.
Other students are excited for the adventure.
"I am excited to y for the rst time," Adams said. "It will be a new experience."
Students will also go sight seeing while on the trip to famous tourist attractions including Times Square, Rockefeller Center, the Statue
of Liberty, the Empire State Building and the 9/11 Museum.
"I'm most excited to see the 9/11 Museum because I like history and I have never been there before," Fletcher said.
The 9/11 Museum was made to honor and remember all of the people who lost their lives during the attack in September 2001 and also the people who risked their own lives to save others. It also honors the thousands that survived and lived through the aftermath of the attack. The museum has two main exhibits, the historical and the memorial.
Times Square is another destination for the group. It
is a major commercial inter- section, tourist destination, entertainment center and neighborhood in the Midtown Manhattan section of New York City.
One event Times Square
is known for is the New Years Eve Ball drop. Tourists are able to watch the world's largest digital art exhibition in Times Square every night from 11:57 pm to midnight. The three largest billboards in Times Square become synchronized to show one complete full picture.
"I want to go see Times Square while we are there because it is super busy and cool," Adams said.
The journalism conven-
tion will be from March 14 through March 16 at Columbia University. It will have one hour sessions covering seven di erent topics, newspaper, yearbook, magazine, online media, video/broadcasting and law and ethics.
The group is looking forward to having lots of fun and seeing all the attractions New York has to offer.

Despite a nip-and-tuck first half, the Eagles were blown out by South Africa 35-7 in Sydney semifinals. Both teams traded yellow cards in the opening stanza, but South Africa scored twice during the man advantage compared to the USA's once. Then, in a blink, the Blitzbokke blew the game wide open and never looked back.
The Eagles continued their restart success, claiming the opening kickoff. And South Africa brought its typical contentiousness at the breakdown. Every time the USA went into a tackle, the Blitzbokke made it difficult to recycle.
Despite an early South African penalty, the Eagles couldn't muster much of an attack on the opening possession, and when South Africa got its first taste of possession, it took just seconds for Seabelo Senatla to breakthrough off a switch and score from long distance.
The Eagles caught a break when Justin Geduld was sent off for an intentional knock-on. A penalty against the Eagles for not releasing in a tackle wasted half the power play, but Danny Barrett won the ball back in the same fashion, and Folau Niua threaded a long cutout pass to Perry Baker, who jogged in for the USA's first score. Both tries were converted, leveling the table at 7-7.
The whistle broke the other way, and rightfully so, when Niua was binned for a high tackle, during which first contact was made around the neck. That gave the Blitzbokke a man advantage right on halftime, and Tim Agaba was assisted by Kyle Brown, giving them a 14-7 lead going into the break.
The second half was all South Africa. The Eagles picked up a penalty almost immediately, South Africa went quick, and Werner Kok simply challenged Iosefo one-on-one, shoving him out of the way and racing in for the score.
The Eagles' last chance at making the game competitive came off a break created by Unufe. It pushed them deep into the American end, but Iosefo simply knocked on, giving the ball back to South Africa. There was a scurry for possession in midfield, which South Africa won after a hospital pass from Baker to Leuta jarred the ball free. Eventually Geduld just waltzed in for the score.
Senatla added his second a minute later, adding insult to injury.

The starter represents the electric motor of a direct current with the mixed excitement with the electromagnetic traction relay. The starter consists of the case or the stator with windings of excitement, an anchor with the obgonny coupling, covers with brush holders and the traction relay.
At inclusion of a starter through a winding of the traction relay of a starter current from the accumulator begins to proceed. The anchor of the relay is involved and contacts of the relay become isolated. At the same time the relay anchor via the lever moves the obgonny coupling with a gear wheel. The nave of the obgonny coupling turns on screw vents of a shaft of an anchor of a starter turns as well a gear wheel that facilitates input it in gearing with a gear wreath of a flywheel. Through the closed contacts of the traction relay there is a current feeding windings of the stator and anchors and the anchor of a starter begins to rotate together with a nave and the obgonny coupling.
After start of the engine the frequency of rotation of a gear wheel exceeds the frequency of rotation of an anchor of a starter. In this case the obgonny coupling is freely turned, and the torque is not transferred from an engine flywheel to a starter anchor shaft. After an ignition key otpuskaniye the power-supply circuit of windings of the traction relay via the switch of ignition is disconnected, the anchor of the traction relay is wrung out by a spring in a starting position, contacts of the relay are disconnected and the gear wheel of the drive leaves gearing with a gear wreath of a flywheel.

Being a for sale by owner in Atlanta is easy today. Here are the tips that you need to know to get started.
First run an ad in the local newspaper. Your local newspaper is The Atlanta Journal Constitution unless you use your county newspaper. You can also run in places like Thrify Nickle and other small publications.
Buy some signs at Home Depot or Lowes. The typical red and white sign is what most buyers associate with. Don't forget to get directional signs as well and possibly some open house signs.
You can add your home to for sale by owner websites on the internet. HomesByOwner.com is one of those sites. Some of the sites are paid websites and others are free.
Add your home to Craigslist.org. Craigslist is a site that is based on dates so you will need to add your ad often. You will add your home under the Atlanta section with Atlanta as your city.
Do an open house every day and time that you are home to make it easy for buyers to see your home. The more convenient that you make it for buyers to see your home when they drive by after looking on the internet, the quicker you will sell your home.
Other Options That Add To For Sale By Owner
New options in real estate allow you to be a for sale by owner while being listed in the MLS. We are one of those models and actually, we are the strongest model in Atlanta with over 10,000 homes listed in just 6 ½ years in the Metro Atlanta area alone. Being a for sale by owner while being listed in the agent systems allows your home to be seen by every buyer that is in the market place. And, with our commission structure you are able to save at least 2.5% commission on up to 5.5% if a buyer comes to your home that does not have an agent.
Aside from the advertising though, one of the biggest benefits to sellers using our system is that we negotiate and handle every contract. That service invaluable because we have closed over 7,000 homes using this same system.
You get 70 points of marketing, full contract negotiation and more wisdom that you will know what to do with and we allow you to preserve your rights as a for sale by owner. This is a no-brainer.

It's been a month…
For those who may be wondering, I haven't died, gone spelunking in Gotham City, run off with the wild things or lost interest in either blogging or crafting.
I did, however, spend the last five weeks moving my things into a new apartment across town. I reached an impasse within my relationship that couldn't be solved with compromise and needed a lot of time to regroup as well as make living arrangements for myself.
So, I will, as promised, have new posts coming up in the next week (multiple projects completed in between tears, furniture shopping and rounds of drinks bought for me by the best friends a girl could ever have). Until then, just wanted to give everyone a heads up.
Thanks for reading.

What's in a game?
on November 8, 2013 at 10:53 am
Chapter: 2013 Comics
Ender's Game
|I considered boycotting the movie to avoid lining the pockets of the book's crazy bigoted author. But, I as curious and had a comic to do, so here we are. The effects account for more than half of this movie's high score. The zero G stuff was good and the space battles / aliens were fantastic. It was really quite faithful to the book(s) from what I could tell. It's a decent one, but if Orson Scott Card rubs you the wrong way, there's plenty of other movies to watch. It's not a must-see.

Close friend and AC Magazine Editor, Dick Marks OAM observed:
Jonathan Dawson died at 12.55am on the 10th of August 2013. No man can replace my-phone-a-friend of choice Jono. The Font! What a freakish ability to store and recall anything, any subject. No one can top his total commitment to and his obsessive love of movies. And especially his love and admiration of cinematography, of story telling, and the whole 'why this story, why you and why now?' of making movies. No one. Sadly, that vault has closed.
His beautiful partner for 40 years Felicity, emailed me to advise of Jonos passing. These are some of the words she chose. " we went back to the hospital at 1.00am... the only car on the streets wonderful rain romantic and fitting. This is such a bugger." Those words, that observation could have only have come from Flissy. Very fitting indeed that Jono should choose to go on a night so noir. Streets wet and shining, deep, dark shadows that I think (and Jono would agree) the genre invented. And romance ahhhhh! The final ingredient.
Whilst many of you may not have known Jono, he was made a life member of the ACS a few years ago for his love, support and dedication to the art of cinematography.
Jono was a director, writer, film critic, media academic, raconteur and true friend. I cannot imagine a world without Jono.
Jono liked nothing more than being with Felicity and his family, watching his beloved Aussie cricketers, wearing their baggy green caps, doing battle with those bloody Poms! and watching AFL.
When Jonathan was born in 1941 it was called VFL, and that year Melbourne defeated Essendon, a fitting result as Jonathan Dawson was born in Melbourne.
At Melbourne University he graduated in English Honours and won awards for acting and two One Act Playwriting Competitions. Published many poems and short stories and later, as a poetry performer was often accompanied by guitarist Glen Tomassetti at La Mama.
His play, A Cup of Tea with Mrs Groom was performed at La Mama directed by Graeme Blundell. He also created two of the most successful university revues of the decade (1960s).
After graduating, Jonathan joined the Australian Broadcasting Commission as a Trainee Radio and TV Producer/Director. He left the ABC to join Crawford Productions as a writer director on Homicide and later Division 4. He then went on to Channel 9 in Sydney to direct The Link Men and write for other series including Rush and The Box.
He continued to publish poetry and short stories, but left the fulltime film industry to set up the new media studies department and screenwriting courses at the University of Canberra, leaving there to help set up Griffith University's Foundation Year in 1975, where he worked to create the then new screen studies and production courses now internationally acknowledged, a series of pioneering new degree and postgraduate programs that have produced and mentored many of the leading film scholars and film makers in international screen studies today.
Jonathan wrote and directed documentaries, commercials and documentary specials for the ABC and commercial networks and the feature film Ginger Meggs in 1982.
As a film maker who welcomed emerging writers, directors and students on his film shoots, he made contributions to the growing film industry of the 1970s right through to his pro bono political commercials on his retirement to Tasmania.
With his 1980 Film Australia documentary The Myth Makers, and later the Japan Prize-awarded TV Open Learning series Images of Australia, he opened up debate in the 1990s on national identity and the interconnected effects of literature, painting, cartooning, film, propaganda and the arts to constructing and projecting national self-images.
At Griffith University, after eight years as Vice Chair of the School of Humanities, he helped plan and then headed up the multi campus Film School (now the Griffith Film School, serving as the School's Foundation Chair and Associate Professor until his retirement in 2000.
After retiring to Tasmania, Jono created a radio film chat show on ABC Radio with Tim Cox as well as writing for the ABC website and contributing popular weekly podcasts on film and popular culture. As Honorary Research Associate at the University of Tasmania he also introduced contemporary cinema studies courses.
He has achieved much including addressing the Royal Australian Institute of Architects annual awards as Keynote Speaker (2004) on film and architecture as well as creating a series of new adult education courses on screenwriting and contemporary film. In association with Screen Tasmania and The State Cinema he has curated and lectured on film theory and history, hosting movie seasons with themes from Independent Movies to new French Film and Australian Film and Documentary.
Since 2009 Jonathan has acted as Script Editor for short drama and documentary film projects such as Daughter of San Domenico and Tin Man for Wide Angle Tasmania and is a member of AFCA (Australian Film Critics Association).
He has been Patron and Senior Judge of the Tasmanian, MyState Film Festival since its inauguration in 2003.
In November 2009 he was elected an Honorary Life Member of the Australian Cinematographer's Society.
The Society and the industry he loved will miss him .
A public memorial for Jonathan Dawson will be held at the State Cinema, North Hobart, on Thursday at 4pm.

Railways Plan to Hike Lower Berth fare for Trains Signals demise of a Rich Culture
The ministry of railways is considering increasing the fares of the lower berths in railway compartments, by 50 to 100 rupees.
The move, if implemented, will be driven towards securing seats for the senior citizens, at nominally higher fares. Nominally? That seems to be the bone of contention here.
Gone are the days, as it seems, when future relations or interim kinship were forged upon the railways. Whether in a discourse of imperial comfort, or one of native camaraderie, travelling in trains was once considered an exercise in Indian hospitality and community-living.
The ministry of railways has recently come under criticism for using the railways as a "business opportunity".
Stringent opposition has come from the Pune Railways Travelers Association. As it appears, an increase in the fare approximately worth the price of half a kilogram of Bengal gram for a 500 km long journey, or upwards, has not gone down well with the passengers. The proposed hike is seen as anything but "nominal".
To put things into an economic perspective, the proposed reservation of seats for senior citizens or pregnant women is roughly 15 per cent of the total lower berth seats. The total number of passenger trains running in India each day is about 13,000.
The longest of trains in India can have up to 24 bogeys, and each of those bogeys has 72 seats, with a maximum of 24 lower berths.
Not all of these are long-distance trains, however for the sake of argument we may consider that all of these may be suitably used as a business opportunity. The longest of trains in India can have up to 24 bogeys, and each of those bogeys has 72 seats, with a maximum of 24 lower berths.
The figures lead to an estimated count of 170 million reserved lower berth seats each year – or those seats that may be subject to a fare hike. If each seat were to cost Rs 100 more than the current fare, it will make an additional revenue of Rs 1,700 crore for the Railways. How much good will that really serve?
In February, earlier this year, the Union Budget allocated a corpus of Rs 20,000 crores to the Rashtriya Rail Sanrakhsha Kosh (RRSK). Out of that, the finance ministry volunteered to provide Rs 15,000 crore annually, with Rs 5,000 crore coming out of the surplus of the Railways – in an aggregate budget of one lakh crores to be spent over the next five years on accident prevention measures, such as renewing tracks, signals and unmanned level crossings.
Out of the proposed 5,000 crores of surplus that the Railways is supposed to garner over the current year, the reservation of lower berths can only lead to one-third of the accretion. And that too is a very utopic figure, considering not all lower berths in all trains may be occupied on each day of the year, or hiked by Rs 100 each.
In order to meet the possible deficit of nearly Rs 3,500 crore, the Railways has started considering enforcing a safety-cess on train tickets.
However, the lower berth is also that tool which has often enabled railway passengers to trade their seats for an ounce of blessings. Women, children, elders, or just an endeared stranger has often had a reprieve from climbing to the searing upper berth – especially during the brunt of Indian summers.
Apart from the requisite surplus that the railways must accumulate by the end of the year, the proposed fare-hikes may also come to reflect public sentiments and class consciousness.
Whether the hikes are a consequence of the growing streak of solipsism in railway journeys, or vice versa, putting a price-tag on the lower-berth will certainly deprive the last vestiges of generosity that community-travelling has had to offer.

Confidentiality and Privilege of Peer Review Information: More Imagined Than Real
Case Citation
Trinity Med. Ctr. v. Holum, 544 N.W.2d 148 (N.D. 1996)
The fact-specific holding "Medical peer review privilege covered the Medical Staff Quality Assurance, Credentials, Safety, Infection, and Medical Staff Executive Committees for the purpose of malpractice discovery. The committees' internal functioning only was protected."
Citing Quote
Trinity relies primarily upon caselaw from other states to support its argument for a broad reading of the privilege, to cover all hospital committees, departments, and individual employees performing medical review functions, and to protect all information or documents presented to them or created at their direction. However, because of the lack of uniformity among the various states' peer review privilege statutes, caselaw interpreting those statutes is not highly persuasive in our interpretation of Sections 23-01-02.1 and 31-08-01, N.D.C.C. It has been noted that "there is extremely wide variation in the privilege granted by the states," and that there is little consistency in the entities covered or types of information protected. Susan O. Scheutzow & Sylvia Lynn Gillis, Confidentiality and Privilege of Peer Review Information: More Imagined Than Real, 7 J.L. & Health 169, 186-187 (1992-1993); see also Ernest J. Naufel, Jr., Physician Peer Review - Is it Really Confidential?, 45 Fed'n Ins. & Corp. Couns. Q. 229, 229-230 (1995). As a result, the caselaw interpreting these widely varying statutes has been described as "creating a crazy quilt effect among the states." Scheutzow & Gillis, supra, 7 J.L. & Health at 188; see also Naufel, supra, 45 Fed'n Ins. & Corp. Couns. Q. at 230 ("There are as many different approaches to a resolution of this situation as there are appellate courts and legislatures."); Charles David Creech, The Medical Review Committee Privilege: A Jurisdictional Survey, 67 N.C.L. Rev. 179, 212 (1988). Thus, although nearly every state has some form of statutory privilege for medical peer review, it appears that no two statutes, or courts' interpretations of them, are alike. Trinity has confused confidentiality with privilege. It is the second sentence which creates the privilege. The first sentence merely provides that information made available to the committee is confidential, and "may be used by such committees and the members thereof only in the exercise of the proper functions of the committees." That provision is directed to those who acquire information in the course of serving on the committee, and directs that they are not free to disseminate such information to third persons or the public. Confidentiality, however, is not synonymous with privilege: "Confidentiality and privilege are two compatible, yet distinct, concepts. Privilege addresses a person's right not to have another testify as to certain matters as part of a judicial process, while confidentiality addresses the obligation to refrain from disclosing information to third parties other than as part of legal process." Scheutzow & Gillis, supra, 7 J.L. & Health at 192. We conclude that the privilege under Sections 23-01-02.1 and 31-08-01 applies only to the "proceedings and records of" covered committees.

Most Australian women, and a lot of men, will tell you that Australian sizing can be a minefield, no matter which end of the spectrum they happen to belong.
The same person can wear a size 10 at one store, a 12 at another and an 8 at yet another. Add the built-in unknowns of online shopping and it's even more confusing.
When it comes to activewear, many brands have simply ignored (or excluded) larger sizes, or pretended that women who wear a size 16 or above don't like to move.
Some women I know have been forced to trawl the menswear department to find breathable tops and shorts that fit. And don't get started on leggings.
But finally it appears some mainstream sports brands are listening.
In the past couple of months, two companies – Nike and Fabletics – have launched plus-size ranges with the aim of providing wearers with more clarity and comfort.
In March, Nike introduced its expanded Plus Size range, which runs to a 3X.
Not to be confused with an XXXL, the new range is specifically designed for the proportions most common to larger women, hence the exclusion of the "L" in the sizing.
In explaining its approach to larger sizes, a statement from Nike said after designing for women for 40 years, with only limited products in plus-sizes, this was its "most robust range of sizes and colours in more colours and styles than before".
Still, looking through the range, there is a distinct bias towards greys and blacks, colours that are hardly considered "robust" in most people's opinions.
Nike says it's just the start and kudos to the brand for acknowledging that not every woman is a size-4 pilates-toned stick-insect.
In comparison, Lululemon and Lorna Jane offer its bottoms in sizes 6-16, the equivalent of Nike's XL in its regular range, while Target offers leggings up to a size 20.
In measurement terms, Nike's 3X accommodates up to a 118cm-128cm range waist, compared to 85cm in Lululemon and Lorna Jane.
Nike also claims that unlike other brands, which simply increase the proportions of its larger sizes, its plus-size range is specially designed for curvy women.
"When we design for plus size, we aren't just proportionately making our products larger. That doesn't work because as we know, everyone's weight distribution is different. We fit every garment on everyday athletes since elite athletes may have different muscle mass," a spokesperson said.
While many stores, including in Australia, hide its plus-size departments out of sight, Nike has recruited high-profile athletes including US hammer throw champion Amanda Bingson.
Fabletics, which was co-founded by actress Kate Hudson, has also recently introduced an "extended" size range, from XXS to 3X, acknowledging that there is also increased demand at the smaller end of the size, especially for younger women wanting fashionable workout wear.
Unlike Nike's dedicated range, Fabletics has expanded the sizes of its existing range.
Hudson said: "We don't see this as the introduction of a separate line but an extension of our brand … to embrace all the amazing women who are, or want to be, part of our community."
With the activewear market in Australia now worth $2 billion, expect to see more companies looking at how they can capture greater market share in the coming 12 months.
Fabletics came under fire in 2016 after over its monthly subscription model, which was accused of not disclosing the full cost to members.
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission ordered the company to improve its disclosure methods regarding ongoing fees after a string of complaints.
Australia has not had standardised sizing since 2008, when the government abandoned the system after lobbying from retailers.

Laptop 101: There are three main kinds of laptops out there: One, the kind you use to watch movies, browse the net, write stuff and probably do some light coding. Two, the kind used for some graphic intensive tasks, perhaps some serious coding, or app development, maybe image and video processing.
And three, the full-blown, uber powerful gaming laptops. Coming in with ultra dominant graphics prowess, high amounts of RAM and a level of durability like none other, the gaming laptops are often the rulers of the roost when it comes to portable computing.
Within the gaming laptops, two names are of significant prominence: Alienware, and MSI. In this piece, we'll be talking about the latter brand and the line of ultra powerful laptops that MSI has in its portfolio in the country.
MSI – short for Multi Star International – is a Taiwanese multinational corporation that is wholly involved in the design, development and provision of computer hardware – including laptops, motherboards, graphic cards and associated peripherals. They are famous for sponsoring some major eSports names such as Fnatic and Cloud 9.
The product lineup under the brand's umbrella can be broadly classified as:
Mobile Workstations, Gaming laptops, Classic laptops.
Based on the platform, the motherboards can be based on the AMD Platform or Intel Platform. There are additional branches of Mini-ITX, gaming and overclocking motherboards, which we'll talk about in a bit.
The graphics cards are also custom made based on the platform – whether they are Intel based or AMD based. Besides these two platforms, there are also gaming and overclocking series.
This is the branch of the brand which might not be related to computing directly. Products in this lineup include the MSI Panocam – a panoramic web cam, bagpacks, mouse pads, mice, headphones and some accessories.
Make no mistake, the laptops within the brand's portfolio are extremely powerful machines, coming in with high end specifications, and ultimately targeted at the hardcore mobile gamer or the power user, looking to get the maximum power from a portable computer. MSI's laptop range within the country can be categorized into the main categories as given below:
Within the gaming laptops we have the various series such as the GT series, GS series, GE series, GP series and GL series.
The GT Dominator series is perhaps the most powerful within the gaming laptop lineup, and some major variants include:
• GT72S Dominator Pro G 6QE, having features such as a 17.3" screen, Intel i7 processor, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 8GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and 128GB SSD, priced at Rs. 2,36,000/-
• GT72 Dominator G 6QD, with a 17.3" screen, Intel i7 processor, 16GB DDR4 RAM, 3GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and 128GB SSD, priced at Rs. 1,68,000/-
• GT72 Dominator G 2QE, with a 17.3" screen, Intel i7 processor, 16GB DDR3 RAM, 8GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and 256GB SSD, priced at Rs. 2,00,000/-
The GE Apache series is a slightly toned down version of the GT series, and products in this range include:
• GE62 Apache Pro 6QD, with a 15.6" screen, Intel i7 processor, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 2/4GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and Windows 10, priced at Rs. 1,14,800/-
• GE60 Apache 6QD, with a 15.6" screen, Intel i7 processor, 8GB DDR3 RAM, 2GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and Windows 8.1, priced at Rs. 96,500/-
The GP Leopard series is targeted at the serious gamer who doesn't want a full-blown gaming laptop. Models in this series include:
• GP Leopard Pro 6QF, with a 15.6" screen, Intel i7 processor, 8GB DDR4 RAM, 2GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and Windows 10, priced at Rs. 97,000/-
• GP62 Leopard Pro 2QE, with a 15.6" screen, Intel i7 processor, 8GB DDR3 RAM, 2GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and free DOS, priced at Rs. 85,000/-
Rounding off the gaming laptop lineup of MSI in the country, we have the GE Ghost series, which include variants such as:
• GS60 Ghost Pro 2QE, with a 15.6" screen, Intel i7 processor, 16GB DDR3 RAM, 3GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD, 128GB SSD and Windows 8.1, priced at Rs. 1,84,000/-
• GE60 Ghost 2PL, with a 15.6" screen, Intel i7 processor, 8GB DDR3 RAM, 2GB Graphics Card, 1TB HDD and Windows 8.1, priced at Rs. 1,18,000/-
Of course, there are many more laptop variants in the gaming lineup, and all of them boast of stellar features when it comes to gaming performance, be it in the form of the RAM offered, the graphics card prowess, and even the processing speeds. Moreover, some of them come equipped with a solid state drive (SSD), which offers a plethora of advantages over traditional hard drives, mainly in the form of data access and physical longevity.
Apart from the laptop lineup, MSI is also an active producer of motherboards and graphic cards, and these are also sold within the country.
Some prominent graphics cards include the MSI GeForce GTX 750Ti, the MSI NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960, MSI TWIN FROZR GeForce GTX and the baddest of them all, the MSI NVIDIA GTX 980. In the motherboard lineup, prominent names include the MSI Z97 PC Mate, MSI 970 Gaming Motherboard, MSI AM1L and MSI B150A.
MSI laptops and accessories are sold both online and offline, in multiple stores. Offline stores are the traditional brick and mortar outlets – and can be found in almost all major cities of Indian states. Online vendors include the popular ecommerce platforms along with some specialized vendors catering to particular states.
MSI's laptop lineup is quite a unique one, wherein the target consumer is the power hungry user, who uses a laptop for extremely graphic intensive tasks such as competitive gaming, animation, graphic designing and professional image/video processing. The laptops might be on the pricier side of the spectrum, but with the specifications offered they provide a bang for the buck.

Ai Washington Students Showcase Shorts at Washington West Film Festival
Filed under: Film & Production
November 13, 2017
The Art Institute of Washington, a branch of The Art Institute of Atlanta, were featured in a student showcase at The Washington West Film Festival. Presented by Boeing, the festival included Ai Washington films for the first-time.
The following films were shown:
Bar Quixote | 12 minutes
A timid, young man named Donnie reads alone at a crowded bar where he is approached by a beautiful woman. Feeling that Donnie has blown a golden opportunity, Alfonso the bartender offers Donnie a drink to provide him with courage. But this is no ordinary drink—Donnie wakes up to find himself in a parallel world where his adventure to win the favor of the enchanting princess has just begun.
Autumn's Room | 12 minutes
Ben has been in a relationship with his roommate-turned-lover, Cara, for the last two months. Things were going great between them until Ben's childhood sweetheart falls seriously ill. Finding himself in an impossible situation, Ben attempts to find his emotional footing whilst it slips increasingly away from him. As Autumn's condition worsens, the love triangle is strained to the breaking point.
Badass Bronson | 10 minutes
A military Soldier is forced to deal with the repercussions of a bad decision she made as a teenager. After being discharged from the army, she arrives home to deal with her past.
Missed Conversation | 23 minutes
Corey is a young man who made a terrible mistake and now must find peace by helping someone not repeat the same mistake he made. Missed Conversation is a story of addiction, lost loved ones, missed opportunities, and second chances. A short film that looks at addicts and their motivations.
The student showcase was held at the Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse and ran for a total of 57 minutes. It was concluded with a Q&A session from the young, budding filmmakers. The festival was open to the public.
The festival attracted arts and entertainment notables from around the world, like music mogul Clive Davis. His film screened at Washington West entitled Clive Davis: The Soundtrack of Our Lives, which profiles the five-decade career of a legendary music producer.
Washington West Film Festival has built a national and international reputation among film festivals, based not only on its impressive list of films and accompanying special events, but also for its unyielding premise that a "Story Can Change the World." As in years past, Washington West will donate 100% of its net box-office proceeds to charitable projects and causes that it believes is making a difference. This extends the festival's reach to use the power of story to effect positive change around the world.

Knowing that it costs anywhere from 5 to 30 times more to gain a new client than retain an existing one, you are probably already sold on the value of a relationship marketing plan. You understand how important it is for each person who has contact with your business to feel like a person, not a dollar sign. So now what?
Steps in a Relationship Marketing Plan
The first step is how you welcome people. Whether they are a prospect, new client, transitioning to a former client, or a strategic partner, first impressions matter. You need to welcome them in a way that builds trust and lets them know what comes next.
Next you need an ongoing plan. How will you nurture the relationship until they get to their next step? This can include phone calls, snail mail, events and occasions. Appreciation is an important piece in nurturing relationships. For prospects, it is a system that answers their questions and nurtures the relationship until they are ready to buy. With clients, you need to show them that you care through the life of your work together. Past clients need you to keep in touch with them so they will remember you enough to hire you again and will refer people to you. Strategic partners need you to keep in touch regularly so they don't forget you. You want to avoid the adage: out of sight, out of mind.
Finally, you need to answer the question: What's next? Lead your prospects to the sale. Show your clients the next thing you can do for them. Remind past clients that you can help them again. Help your strategic partners give you regular referrals.
Once you have a system, it is easier to consistently reach out to every contact, customer, and partner. Each person goes through the same process where they feel taken care of and remembered. Chances are good that you do not have a relationship marketing plan. Chances are even better that you don't have time to create one for yourself. I can help with that. During a strategy day, we can map out your welcome, ongoing, and what's next plans for your business. When you walk away you will have a relationship marketing plan that is effective and doable. It will save you marketing dollars and increase your bottom line.

text: breakbeat12 1 Report post Posted March 12, 2012 I was just wondering if anyone could tell me the different between inclusive design and universal design. The only difference to my understanding is that inclusive design doesn't focus on age or disability as much as universal design. I'm not even sure if that's right. Any help appreciated.

Very good 8,0 From 27 reviews
Having booked and paid for my room I get a call the day before arrival to say they had over booked and so they were moving me to another (lower rated) hotel. They claimed that there was no price difference and that they had paid all the money I paid to the new hotel. When I arrived at the hotel they asked me to pay because The Spires had not paid. Also, it was clear that the room rate was well below what I had paid. I have written to the Spires requesting a rebate of the price difference and they have completely ignored my email. This is terrible customer service and I won't be using this hotel again.
We had a brilliant stay at The Spires. We stayed in a duplex which was fantastic and had lots of space to chill out - so much better than staying in a hotel. It was great having a kitchen with everything you need to self cater and very handy having a downstairs cloakroom too. The duplex was spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. We would recommend The Spires to anyone visiting Birmingham and will definitely stay there again.
Good location and restaurants nearby, clean rooms. However have to call to check in if arrived after 7pm.
Perfect location. Great customer care. Amazing duplex apartment. Loved it.
location was excellent although the add on costs such as wifi are expensive. The shower temperature in room 8 was far too hot and there was no one on site to help. The overall room and facilities were good although the double bed was just 2 singles pushed together.

Multi-million-pound prosperity fund does not focus on world's poorest and lacks transparency, says parliamentary committee
Aid delivered under multi-million-pound cross-government fund is insufficiently focused on poverty reduction and lacks transparency, MPs said.
The emphasis of the prosperity fund on promoting British trade was a "step towards" tied aid, a concept discredited after Britain's "aid for arms" scandal 25 years ago, according to a report on aid spending across Whitehall by the international development committee (IDC). The Pergau Dam affair, in which hundreds of millions of pounds in UK aid were linked to a major arms deal, was uncovered by a National Audit Office report in 1993.

Spared the worst of the nation's drug crime, Cartagena is a great beauty with a colonial past. And it's a city with a vibrant street life.
IN the old days, this was a swell place to be a pirate and a terrible place to be a witch. That was back when this wind-scoured Caribbean port was a hub of the Inquisition and the Spanish Empire's gold trade in the New World.
Between 1610 and 1811, hundreds of sorcerers, blasphemers and other hapless heretics met gruesome fates here. During the same period, bulging Spanish coffers helped pay for the elegant private homes, imposing churches and massive stone walls that make up this bustling city's historic core. >>Read more

The tipi is super snug, with plenty of space for 2 and even up to 3 guests! But you can enjoy a bit of home comfort though, since there's a double bed inside that you can get all nice and cosy in! You can also use the lodge on-site to cater for yourselves. Your hosts will provide breakfast using fresh ingredients from their farm too – the lovely hospitality of hosts will be the icing on the cake!

Scroll down for Manic Monday.
After my post on Friday, I had several people ask what the bra was that lifted the girls so much that I was getting whistles when I walked down the street (yes, I've now embellished it from 'a whistle' to 'whistles' - work with me.)
Anyway, I bought the bra from Lane Bryant. The brand is Cacique, and it's the Balconette bra. I bought three, and they are awesome! They come in tons of different colors.
Here is the link to purchase them online:
If you have a C cup or larger, this is the way to go. And they're currently having a sale - buy one, get one 1/2 off!!


text: Markey's Branch Managers Convene in Indianapolis01/15/2013Markey's annual Managers Meeting was held at the corporate headquarters in Indianapolis, January 7-9, 2013. Markey's branch managers from Ohio, Iowa, Indiana, and Florida came together to learn of recently acquired products, brainstorm on possible new service offerings, discuss budget implementation strategies and share their vision for Markey's future in their respective markets and for the company overall. The managers also spent time with company leaders in discussing Markey's growth initiatives and to meet with department managers who serve as support staff for them: accounting, human resources, business development, training, marketing and warehouse operations. They were apprised of upgrades to the inventory management system and the new accounting software, both which will enable them to serve our customers in a more efficient manner. Additionally, the managers visited a Markey's event site that had a unique stage design using elements new to our inventory, so they could ask questions of the creative team and begin to envision new and exciting ideas for their customers. This year's meeting came on the heels of Markey's becoming an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan), so there was a special new synergy in the air. There was unanimous agreement that the Markey's reputation for excellent customer service had to be upheld and strengthened through the actions of all employees, at all times, even while expanding our business both geographically and in the range of services and equipment offered. All agreed that 2013 looks to be an exciting year, with many new opportunities for Markey's that will enhance our business model and benefit our customers. As always, this annual collaboration was a great meeting of the minds and launched all of Markey's on a great start to the new year.

THEN I get my Chemistry homework back, and Yay! because I got all the answers right, but Boo! because the prof took 30% off my score for "lateness." So, I had to follow him around for ten minutes until I could get him to pay attention to the fact that I had contacted him the morning after my night in the freakin' emergency room, so it had been an excused absence. He said he would change it back to 100%, but I have a feeling I'm just another face in the crowd to him, so I'd better watch him like a hawk.
NEXT it turned out that there was a message on my voicemail that I could make my missed lab class up, after all, but ONLY IF I RUN RIGHT NOW TO THE OTHER BUILDING AND TAKE IT CHOP CHOP RIGHT NOW DON'T STOP JUST GO! So, I did. And it was... fine. Like being in junior high once again, really, including having the partner who seemed a little slow and thus I ended up doing everything while she watched and copied my notes, except for the one thing she did do which messed up the experiment and would have ruined our results, had I not gone back and doctored the numbers.
Are we having fun yet?
Then, it was RACE back to Brooklyn to meet with my pet sitting partner, who had been circling in her car for over a half hour with two little dogs, waiting for me to meet them. They are cute, but I am not convinced they won't gnaw my face off when I go to walk them without her. I'm planning to Shake 'n Bake myself in a leaf bag full of crushed dog treats, hoping that they will then decide I'm worth sparing.
Now I'm late to get to my mom's house before the massage she's giving tonight, so I have to pack and await a call from her. Then it's schlepping to New Jerseyfor one day full of hanging her show, printing her materials, doing some store returns and hanging out at some harvest festival for a few hours while she gives chair massages. If there is a God, there will be fair weather and funnel cake.
Finally, on Sunday and Monday, I have to catch up on all the studying I'm behind on, try to do some of the neglected housework, and let Mrs. Nator know I'm still around, as well as resuming pet-sitting duties.
One day, and everything's backed up. And I'm only taking three classes right now (well, more like 2 and 1/2, since the student seminar is a gut course of sorts), y'all. God forbid I get the flu, or something, in Spring, when I'll presumably be taking at least 4 or 5.
Oh, and now my wound and shot site are beginning to hurt pretty regularly, thanks for asking.
And my Mega Millions ticket was not a winner.
...funnel cake?

I rarely plan my pages – I let a photo or a patterned paper inspire me and I take it from there." She had once confessed that "I'd secretly feed junk food to my daughter if it's gonna help me get a better picture from her (Oooops... I know!)."
A 2007 Memory Makers Master, Iris is also a part of the Design Team of notable scrapbook manufacturers namely, Prima, Webster's and October Afternoon.
With her eye for detail, Iris is sure to be the best judge for this round.
