Louisiana Tech wins high-scoring Armed Forces Bowl by a foot
Louisiana Tech's recipe for winning on Saturday was built by the now-calloused bare hands of Trent Taylor and Carlos Henderson in an Armed Forces Bowl game that came down to the guy wearing the cleanest jersey.
Taylor, the game's MVP, had game-record totals of 12 catches for 233 yards and two touchdowns, and Henderson added 129 yards and two TDs for the Bulldogs, who defeated No. 25 Navy 48-45 on a 32-yard field goal off the foot of Jonathan Barnes in the closing seconds at TCU's Amon G. Carter Stadium.
Their quarterback Ryan Higgins passed for 409 yards and four TDs on 29-of-40 passing for the Bulldogs, who finished 2016 at 9-5 and captured their third bowl victory in consecutive years, unprecedented at Louisiana Tech.
Taylor had a TD reception of 19 yards and another of 51 yards just before the half. Henderson, who had a Louisiana Tech-bowl record 215 all-purpose yards, had TD scores of 3 and 4 yards.
"Trent Taylor is an incredible competitor," Louisiana Tech coach Skip Holtz said. "People want to evaluate a football player by his height, weight and speed. They think it's all about the [measurables], and that's why a guy like this is at Louisiana Tech.
"He's at his best on the biggest stage. I couldn't be more proud of him. He's going to leave a huge hole when he walks out that door."
The Bulldogs started their decisive campaign at their own 15 with 3:40 left in the game and drove the ball to Navy's 15 in nine plays.
The made field-goal was sweet justice for Barnes who missed two field goals, including one to start the fourth quarter in a one-point loss to Arkansas in the Bulldogs' season opener.
Taylor leaves Louisiana Tech as one of the school's most prolific receivers, including becoming only the second player in school history to go over 4,000 yards receiving. Troy Edwards was the other.
Over his career, Taylor has 20 games of 100 or more yards.
"I couldn't ask for a better way for it to end," Taylor said. "The last game of your career, to see it come down to the wire and just to be able, as an offense, to drive the ball down the field to get that winning field goal. There's nothing more you could ask for."
In addition to the Bulldogs snapping a two-game skid, the triumph was also a feather in the cap for Conference USA, which is now 4-1 in the postseason .
If fans came to watch a defensive struggle, they came to the wrong game, which turned out to be the highest-scoring Armed Forces Bowl, surpassing last year's 55-36 Cal win over Air Force.
The teams combined for 956 total yards, and each did it their way.
Of Louisiana Tech's 497 total, 409 yards were generated through the pass. Out of its triple-option offense, Navy (9-5) racked up 459 total yards, including 300 rushing.
"Couldn't be more proud of the guys around me," Taylor said. "We executed to the best of our ability. Nobody flinched. Coach tells us that all the time, 'just don't flinch.' We all believed in each other, and we had confidence that we were going to get the job done, and that's what we did."
After throwing two interceptions in his first career start, against Army on Dec. 10, Navy quarterback Zach Abey more resembled a seasoned starter on Saturday. Abey had 273 total yards and accounted for three touchdowns, two on short runs and a 64-yard pass to Darryl Bonner.
The Bulldogs put Navy in a 10-0 hole to start the game.
Louisiana Tech started the game's first drive at the Navy 16 after Henderson's 82-yard return on the opening kickoff. On the fourth play of the game from the 1, Higgins snuck into the end zone to give Louisiana Tech an early touchdown lead.
The Bulldogs then turned Prince Sam's fumble recovery off Navy's first possession into a Jonathan Barnes 22-yard field goal to make the score 10-0.
"We lost that possession. The way we play, we don't have a ton of possessions," said Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo. "It just gave them the ball back. And they're so potent on offense. You don't want to give them the ball back."
Abey's 3-yard TD run got the Midshipmen on the board and set off a run.
After misfires to open receivers over the top, Abey finally connected with Bonner, who raced down the middle of the field for the Midshipmen's second score to cap a two-play, 23-second drive.
Abey's 2-yard scoring run marked the game's first lead change, putting Navy up 21-17 at the 11:17 mark of the second quarter.
Tied at 24-all just before half, Louisiana Tech moved the ball to midfield, and from there Higgins dialed up his star receiver a second time, hitting Taylor for a 51-yard score to cap a six-play drive.

2010 Year in Review
Report to the HHC Board of Directors
The modernization project at Gouverneur is also continuing. This project entails a significant renovation of the existing building and construction of a 108,000 square-foot addition for ambulatory services. When it is completed in 2013, Gouverneur will not only offer expanded comprehensive primary and specialty care services, but also improved services to residents of the skilled nursing facility. These state-of-the-art services will be offered in an environment designed to be as home-like as possible.
Of course, all of this work continues at the same time as we have had to comply with further targeted reductions to our capital program for fiscal years 2011 through 2021. These most recent targeted reductions of about 10% are in addition to the 30% reductions we made last year. We have worked closely with OMB to preserve the most essential components of our capital program, and to secure the funding necessary to protect and maintain our existing infrastructure.
STAT! For NYC's Public Hospitals
With all of the challenges and changes happening within HHC, in December we took the time to celebrate the hard work our 37,000 staff members do every day, and to build awareness and funding for HHC facilities. The HHC Foundation sponsored a weeklong series of music and arts events in all five boroughs called STAT! For NYC's Public Hospitals. Staff attendance and appreciation were high, and we received significant community support, as well as support from New York City. At the press conference launching the events, Mayor Bloomberg presented us with a proclamation declaring the week of December 5-12, 2010 STAT! Week.
The STAT! events brought staff, community members, politicians and celebrities together. You can soon see photographs on the STAT! Website (www.stathhc.org), where you will be able to buy your 2011 STAT! tickets early.

The Field of Agincourt
Henry V's war in France is represented in the play in two sequences: a siege on the town of Harfleur in the first half, and the climactic battle with the French at Agincourt in the second.
Agincourt is one of the most famous military victories in history. The play says that the French have 60,000 men, five times more than the English, but the English manage to kill 10,000 French while losing only 27 of their own. These numbers are probably greatly exaggerated; historical sources differ on the actual numbers present and killed, but they do agree that the English were heavily outnumbered but still lost far fewer soldiers than the French.
How were the English able to overcome these odds and win so decisively? Historians have pointed to a number of key factors:
- The English were a unified force under a single skilled commander, while the French command was divided and weakened by a variety of disputes.
- The field of battle was narrow and hemmed in by forests, so the smaller English army could array its forces in a line across the field, while the larger French army had to advance in a column. The English could then attack each element of the French army as they advanced, reducing the advantage of their superior numbers.
- The French wore heavy plate armor, which caused their knights and horses to bog down in the mud created by incessant rain over the previous week. As they got stuck or slogged exhaustedly through the mud, the English could decimate them from a distance with their archers and then scramble around them in their lighter armor and kill whoever was left.
- The English used longbows, which were more effective than the French crossbows (which they barely even deployed because they were so confident in their superior numbers).
- The English used arrays of sharpened stakes to protect their archers from attack by French calvary, a new innovation in medieval warfare.
In the play, Henry has another explanation for the victory: it was God's doing. The battle takes place on St. Crispin's Day, October 25. Crispin and Crispinian were largely legendary brothers who became Christian saints for their ministry and martyrdom in France in the 3rd century AD. Henry's famous "St. Crispin's Day" speech — a.k.a. the "band of brothers" speech — emphasizes the significance of the day, and after the battle Henry concludes that the lopsided victory can only be the result of God's intervention on the English side.
The play, though, demands a more complicated response on the part of the audience. This battle feels very different from those in previous plays. The climax to the Agincourt sequence is not a heroic one-on-one fight between two great warriors, after which the victor honors the vanquished (as in Henry IV). Instead, it is a sneak attack on the undefended English camp and the slaughter of defenseless innocents and prisoners — by both sides. There is a brutal realism to this battle that highlights the horrors of war and for a modern audience can make Henry V seem as much an anti-war play as anything else.
Our approach to the Agincourt sequence tries to do justice to all these different elements. It will be very exciting to see it all come together in performance. In the mean time, check out some photos from rehearsals:

With the 3D printed house created last year, developers have moved on to try and print something more challenging.
Robot company MX3D has developed a revolutionary, gravity defying 3D printer that can print structures in the air. With this technology they are now planning on building a bridge over a canal in the heart of Amsterdam.
Rendering of how bridge construction will proceed.
"We research and develop groundbreaking, cost-effective robotic technology with which we can 3D print beautiful, functional objects in almost any form," MX3D wrote on the project's website.
ALSO SEE: 3D Printed Housing: Implications for the Building
"The ultimate test? Printing an intricate, ornate metal bridge for a special location to show what our robots and software, engineers, craftsman and designers can do."
The bridge will be designed by Joris Laarman, in a process using new Autodesk software. It will sync with the technical development and take into account the location. The robots will print using steel, with specially designed arms used to heat the steel to 1,500 degrees Centigrade before welding the structure into shape. This process will allow for the creation of structures that are strong, durable and functional - all things vital for a working bridge.
"I strongly believe in the future of digital production and local production, in "the new craft". This bridge will show how 3D printing finally enters the world of large-scale, functional objects and sustainable materials while allowing unprecedented freedom of form," said Mr Laarman.
"The symbolism of the bridge is a beautiful metaphor to connect the technology of the future with the old city, in a way that brings out the best of both worlds."
According to CNET, the team has perfected and tested the robotic printer, creating a metal sculpture of intersecting lines.
For the bridge, the team envisions two robots - with one robot on each side of the canal bank - working towards each other.
We've already seen how 3D printed houses could potentially save millions and millions in construction materials and time, and the 3D printed bridge would be no different. It could make building bridges cheaper, faster and safer.
View the project website here and see how the team at MX3D are going to print a bridge.

Recent research and studies have really shown us a lot about women and alcohol use, and that is definitely something that you will find to be true if you look. Alcohol addiction affects females in a different way than it does males. This is partly because women tend to be smaller than men. This is also because there are some biological differences between men and women.
Recent research has shown that young women in their 30s who have alcohol use disorder will start to have difficulties. For example, they may have issues with impulse control, they may have problems completing simple tasks, and they may not be able to continue living professional lives. Other studies have shown that women who have alcoholism have had significant changes to their brain tissues.
So what can be done about alcoholism? The most important thing that a woman can do is to seek treatment for her condition. This may mean inpatient treatment at a rehabilitation center. This may mean outpatient treatment. It may simply mean attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings regularly. Whatever the case, it's imperative that women who have issues with alcohol find an appropriate solution.
There are many treatment centers that are exclusive to females. Many women may find this environment more productive to recovery. Without men around, there are less distractions that can proove to be difficult during the early stages of recovery.
If you are a woman who suffers from alcoholism, it's important that you seek treatment as soon as possible. Don't wait to start your recovery journey and take back the control over your life.

I walked around the decks with Johan Hartler as he oversaw his stevedores loading the Volvos. Saabs and strange looking boxes onboard the Fidelio.
As head of operations in Sweden he has the task of making sure that the right freight goes on board, and that as much as possible can go on when it does.
"The challenge really is to get the right mix of the large, high and heavy cargo with the cars," he told me as we wander amongst the oversize and frankly bizarre machinery used in the mining industry. We keep one eye in the back of our heads for the cars as they are loaded as they can appear out of nowhere.
Some of the Fidelio's decks are adjustable and in places these have three settings, so at certain heights only certain cargo will fit. If the deck is at its lowest, i.e. lying on the deck below it, then Johan tells me he has more height at his disposal, where as in the middle it is about 2 meters high and only cars will fit, with a slightly higher level above.
"The interesting thing is that I might have an order for a Caterpillar, which will fit on one deck height setting, but a John Deere will not, simply because it is only two centimetres higher."
Johan sailed with Wallenius Marine before he came ashore to work for the companies joint logistics company, WWL. "I can understand what the chief mate means when he tells me that something is not working, or if my stevedores are getting in the way with the ship's operation," he explained.
He can also understand the necessity to plan the cargo carefully, with the ships stability in mind. "We don't have to worry about that too much however as this ship is new and has good ballast systems to help heel and balance things out," he said.
"If I get a shipment of dumper trucks, then I make sure they are evenly spread, port and starboard, and anything heavy like this, we put in the centreline" he pointed at a huge tarpaulin covered structure laying on a flatbed in the middle of the loading cargo deck.
As we are talking cars are whizzing up the ramps and round the pillars, tyres squealing on the non-slip deck paint.
"I can see a difference between loading in Sweden and Germany," he said. When the Mercedes and BMW's come onboard, the shore crews will line them up precisely. First one type and then another. They will be lined up to within a millimetre."
However as I stand there I watch first a Volvo, then a Saab and then a multi terrain Volvo go up the ramp.
"In Bremerhaven we have the terminal space to lay things out properly, but here we compete for space with the container terminal, so we are more cramped," he said. The port gets more money from container operations, so beside the Fidelio, one can see containers stacked and waiting, hedging in the cars and heavy diggers.
What I was surprise to see with the loading crews was firstly the mix. I had never really thought about it before, but the crews ranged form middle aged men to young women, all totally at ease squeezing a car as close as it can go next to its neighbour onboard.
"We try and get a fist distance between the bumpers and about twenty centimetres between the cars," said Johan.
When the ship takes onboard cars destined for Britain, Australia or any where else with right hand drive Johan tells me they simply load in the other direction. "The interesting thing is when we have, as we often do, split cargoes with left and right hand drive".
The loading is made more interesting with the additional complication that Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics has an agreement with the car makers that they can adjust the final loading figures up to six hours after loading has started. This can make a difference of up to ten percent, which with the experience that Johan has, that's no problem. "We always leave some leeway for that change, you learn by experience, but the bigger cargoes are the easiest." And in terms of effort, time and space onboard, very profitabable. The strangest thing the company has carried on one of its ships, is a life size bronze elephant for a golf course. Although Johan claims his most peculiar was a whole fairground.

Who's backing Boxwars Brum?
I saw the 'Battle of the Boxes' video by Great Big Story back in January 2018 and I liked the idea of using this as a way to get people of all ages and backgrounds in Birmingham making stuff and coming together. I have no idea how to make the armor and stuff but I'm looking to have some fun doing it and want to bring some people on that journey too.
"Let's create space for Brummies to unbox their pent-up creative energy"

I have just started up a cosplay and Props commission business where I build using Eva foam, thermoplastics, casting materials and some 3D print work. I was introduced to Andre earlier this week and he explained a little about the project but I had seen YouTube vids of this sort of thing before and loved the look of it. I'm really excited to be involved in this project.
Connect with Rich at https://www.facebook.com/VEXEDcosplayandprops/
I have been looking into activities enabling the public to participate in maker culture (especially design and digital fab ). Daniel told me about box wars and I think it's the perfect fit! I want to encourage curiosity, and creative confidence inviting them to design their own suits of armor together within co-working spaces like Impact Hub, and get them made within productive spaces like MeltingPot. Kondo's angle is R+D, so we will be documenting the entire process. We will also get involved in helping stimulate the making and designing with a few sessions here there and think about coming up with a 'digital template armory' for the public to access design templates to work from
+ there are a lot of roads to be built between this emergence of new spaces and movements, so I believe activities like this are here to bridge the gap.

As much as I'm down with the whole community participation / crafting angle the real reason I'm down is because running into each other in giant boxes sounds like my idea of a banging day out.
I spend most of my days at Impact Hub Birmingham and I'm a photographer / videographer.

I love events like this and Brum's been a bit short of these kinda things recently.
I was the co-organiser for the Zombie Walk in the city and do a lot of stuff with cosplayers, comic cons and flashmobs (people who like to dress up and have a random outdoor social basically) so am hoping to pool in people from all the diff groups for this.
I'm also currently Editor of the 'I Am Birmingham'.

When Daniel first shared the Box Wars video I was instantly transported into a cardboard world like that in Gondry's Science of Sleep… except everyone was smashing it to smitherines(!)
My creative practice is centered around using simple materials to explore complex topics, so I loved the imagination and sophistication of the cardboard designs, instinctively wanting to try and make something and encourage others to do the same.
I'm also organising #BrumZineFest, a celebration of independent publishing and DIY making that aims to bring people together using zine approaches, methodologies and formats. For us, it feels like the perfect marriage of DIY attitude to link up and do these glorious events alongside one another and create space for people to make and share ideas together in Brum on Sunday 1st July. I think there's going to be a real buzz in the air, and of course, cardboard will fly.
I make coffee in and around Brum. I just think that cardboard needs to be taken down a level. It a bit arrogant for me. I'm also a textbook nerd (d and d, video games, the lot!) Look forward to helping with this amazing idea!

With a background in Architecture, I started a project focused on providing affordable access to bespoke and unique pop up spaces & environments for designers makers and artists. Last year I curated and provided a 6-month pop up in brum city centre to give access to independent designers. I am currently working on an R+D project with the aim of developing and prototyping portable pop up units and as part of this project, we will be investigating the potentials of Augmented Reality, Mixed Reality & Virtual Reality in retail environments. Andre invited me to be a part of boxwars and I was sold when he said that we would be able to design own armour and fight!' I am also working very closely with Kiondo inana R + D project looking at circular economies so i'd be very interested in looking at how the cardboard can be recycled or repurposed.

Prey Glitch Breaks the Game's Crafting System
Want to ruin your Prey experience? Or do you just plain suck at the game? Well, you are in luck, as a way to create unlimited resources and craft as much ammo and as many health kits as you can carry has been found. I am thinking that this will be gone by the next patch, so you should try it sooner rather than later if interested.
آ…players will need to get about an hour into the game's opening scenes and have access to main character Morgan Yu's office. Once there, players will find their first Material Recycler. Recyclers are used to mash up other loot into Materials, which can then be turned into many other consumable items. All you need to do is fill the Recycler up with already-recycled stuff, divide that stuff into at least four piles and hit the button. You'll have twice as much as you started with. We've been able to confirm that it works on both PlayStation 4 and Windows PC versions of the game so far.

I'm still cant get over how fast this year has gone. It's already the end of November and Christmas is fast approaching! So I thought I'd kick start this festive season with a quick video tutorial on how to make a Christmas Wreath. This can be hung on your front door to greet and impress guests who come-a-knocking. Or can be placed in the middle of a table with a vase and candle in the middle as a table centrepiece.
There's many different ways to make a Christmas Wreath. Here's one way. This technique is best used to make a wreath that can be dried and keep for many months and years proceeding this Christmas. Be sure to use ingredients that dry well to avoid an ugly dying wreath.
For the purpose of the video, I used:
- wool bush
- gum
- nigella
- unknown red flowers
- leucadendrons
I hope you've enjoyed the tutorial. If you'd like to learn how to make fresh wreaths for this Christmas, we are running Christmas Wreath Workshops. This can be booked and paid over our online store. Or are you time poor but would love one for Christmas? You can order one to be delivered to your door before Christmas on our online store. Check it out!

My father in law never updated his will. He though he had. He told everyone he had. He even told people what he wanted and who got what. I guess it was all the painkillers talking. In three years of having terminal Cancer he never wrote a new will. The old one is almost thirty years old. It does not include his children. It gives everything to his then girlfriend. Someone he has not seen in decades.
All the promises, plans, expectations and infighting were for nothing because he never changed his will. I feel really bad for everyone involved. Their Dad told them he was splitting everything evenly for his three boys. Now they get nothing, zero, zip. What a slap in the face. All the insurances he said he had, he did not. So now there are huge outstanding bills and fees to pay.
There is a lesson here. Update your will as your life changes.

I'm stuck here at work for a few extra minutes waiting for Gwen so I thought I'd blog a little.
One idea I had about the system was that to get real value, we need to integrate with the popular media players. iTunes seems like a no-brainer in terms of support. Integrating with iTunes would give us tight integration with the iPod as well. Similar to how iPodder or the other podcasting tools integrate with iTunes and hence the iPod.
What are some other candidates.
Is music match jukebox still a popular one?
I'm thinking that integrate into Windows Media Center Edition would be cool. The market is probably kind of small for it today, but there's potential there.
I wonder what Winamp's latest version looks like?
I've mostly been using iTunes on the mac lately because of the iPod.

About Pawn Shops
You see them in various parts of town and you have been wondering just exactly what is a pawnshop, how do they work and why are they becoming more common place?
Pawnshops date back to ancient times and are one of the earliest recorded lending institutions. During the late Middle Ages the House of Lombard in Europe had a group of pawnshops. The sign of the House of Lombard was the three golden balls and this sign was associated for years with the pawn industry.
More than 75 million people do not have a bank account or credit cards.
In today's diverse society, many people depend on pawnshops to help them meet their daily financial needs not met by other financial institutions. Our customers represent the working families of America who have an unexpected need for a short term loan. Pawn loans keep the electricity on, rents paid and cars working.

CENTENNIAL, Colo. -- Penford Products Co., a division of Penford
Corporation, announced that it is developing and testing novel
technology utilizing natural and renewable ingredients to replace fluorochemicals used in
food packaging applications. Major producers of food packaging materials are currently
testing this proprietary technology, which is the subject of a pending patent application.
Fluorochemicals are currently used to provide oil and grease resistance in the growing
market segments of sandwich wraps, fry scoops and microwave popcorn bags. These
petroleum-based chemicals break down to release perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA).
Human exposure to PFOA can result from consumption of food products that have come
in contact with fluorochemical-based coatings. The U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has been investigating PFOA due to its persistence in the environment,
presence in the human blood stream and other adverse effects that PFOA has been
shown to have in laboratory animals.
"We are truly excited with the development of these naturally-derived solutions to
address the health and environmental concerns created by use of traditional
fluorochemicals," said Tom Malkoski, CEO of Penford Corporation. "This new product
platform aligns with our strategy to create value for our customers by developing
sustainable products to replace petroleum-derived materials."
Prototype products created with this technology exhibit performance characteristics at
least equivalent to products made with fluorochemicals. Penford's technology is
designed to be used in existing food packaging production equipment as a costcompetitive
replacement for fluorochemicals.
Penford Corporation develops, manufactures and markets specialty, natural-based
ingredient systems for a variety of industrial and food applications. Penford has five
manufacturing and/or research locations in the United States.

Those who have mastered the use of sign language can communicate among themselves without words, provided they can see each other's hands. Signing is a language unto itself: It conveys ideas that any other character who has the sign language proficiency can understand, regardless of his or her native language.
To use sign language for an entire round, all parties involved must make a successful check. Characters who succeed can converse together for an entire minute; those who fail can't listen. When a PC signs successfully with an NPC, the DM should speak freely with the player for one minute per round. Every round of conversation requires another check. A failed check means that the speaker didn't perform his finger movements accurately, the listener wasn't watching the speaker closely enough, or something else blocked communication.
On Athas, many groups employ sign language for covert conversations. In some city-states, using sign language can be grounds for imprisonment. Though sign language throughout Athas is generally consistent, some secret societies employ special codes so that unwanted eyes can't decipher specific conversations.

The home that served as the exterior of the Tanner residence on the popular 1980s American sitcom "Full House" is on sale for $4.15 million.
The house is listed for sale on real estate
"The interior of this magnificent property is sophisticated, comfortable, and timeless with a spacious floor plan, soaring ceilings, 3 bedrooms, office and 3 1/2 baths," according to the listing on the website.
Located at 1709 Broderick Street in lower Pacific Heights here, the 3,125 sq ft abode no longer features the familiar off-white facade or red door -- the house now has a purple colour scheme, reports ew.com.
The interior doesn't match the one on the show either, as "Full House" was filmed on a soundstage. Instead, incoming residents will have to make do with "a spacious floor plan", "soaring ceilings" and a "classically designed garden".
The show, created by Jeff Franklin for ABC, aired from September 22, 1987, to May 23, 1995, broadcasting eight seasons and 192 episodes.

Flanigan's Wake
So, Timothy Flanigan's nomination for Deputy Attorney General has been withdrawn admidst the expanding investigation of that monstrous money maw of the already indicted Jack Abramoff. Indeed, as the investigation of Abramoff's various and sundry dealings progresses, he is beginning to look a lot like the recently discovered giant squid, as his political tenticles are yanked into daylight from the depths of the dark, unseemly underworld that is Washington today.
What is fascinating and, ultimately, disturbing about Flanigan's move -- no doubt encouraged by the White House -- is not the withdrawal itself nor that Flanigan was involved with the uber-lobbyist. No, what is amazing about it is that Alberto Gonzales sailed through his confirmation for Attorney General with the full knowledge of the Senate that he had supplied the legal justifications that led to the abuses and toture discovered at Abu Graib and Guantanamo Bay. This was not enough to prevent Gonzales' confirmation and while Flaningan appears to have also been involved in the torture "reasoning" that sought to allow such abuses, his ties to off shore tax havens, illegal money funnelling and lobbyist-sponsored junkets are what have proved too, too serious for the White House to pursue the nomination.
This is, more than anything, a disappointing though not surprising display of priorities of this country's politics. Careless fund-running can prove politically deadly. Justifying torture ... not so much.

Arguing Definition Essay Outline
You see a new word that absolutely means nothing to you. The word seems interesting enough so as a wise student you decide to look it up in the dictionary. After researching the term online, you find a proper definition that seems logical enough. Great, you have learned a new word!
However, sometimes a term cannot be described in a sentence or two. This word is so complex and deep that it requires hundreds or even thousands of words to explain it.
Table Of Contents
What is a Definition Essay?
A definition essay can be tricky to write. This type of paper requires you to write a partially personal and also formal explanation of . Considering the fact that this is an essay, you can not pick a term that is describable in a few words. It has to be a complex term that has significant background and origin in history, as well as a term that people can relate to in some way or form. For example, the word "love". It is seemingly impossible to explain this concept in a sentence or two, so we must create an entire essay about it to give it an accurate UNIVERSAL representation!
Types of Definitions commonly used in Definition Essay
- Analysis: Break the subject into parts and define each part individually.
- Classification: What classes does the subject belong to?
- Comparison: Unusual things may be defined by showing its likeness to the common or its contrast from it.
- Details: What are the characteristics and other distinguishing features that describe the idea of the paper?
- Negation: Mention what it is not in order to clear the ground for what it is.
- Origins and Causes: What is the origin of the theme? What is the background information? What is the history of the idea?
- Results, Effects, and Uses: Describe the after effect and uses of the subject.
Interesting Topics
- What makes someone a Hero
- What is Success?
- Describe Love.
- Explain the definition of Beauty.
- What is Happiness?
- How can one define Respect?
- What is the definition of Loyalty?
- What is Courage?
- Describe Heroism.
- What is Friendship?
These are just some common examples of definition essay questions and topics that are commonly asked on tests and coursework assignments. There are an infinite number of words that can be defined in the span of an essay. The goal here is to pick one that as a student you feel comfortable explaining and portraying. It is time to become a word artist!
A definition essay outline will vary in length based on the term one is describing. As stated previously, some terms are fairly logical and more or less "easy to understand". There are some terms, however, that require deep research and analysis in order to be able and formulate an accurate representation of its meaning! Regardless Every Definition Essay should be written in the classic Intro-Body(s)-Conclusion format.
Steps to take Pre-Writing
Before you even begin writing, obviously a word has to be chosen for the essay to be based around. Here are a few tips to consider before choosing your !
- Choosing a Proper Term:
- As stated previously, it is impossible to write a hefty custom essay on a simple word. That is why it is important to be meticulous during the decision process. Choosing something like a noun is most likely not going to work out. For example, if you chose the term "pencil", there is really not much depth that you as the writer can get into. Sticking in the same sphere, choosing something like "writing" is much more subjective and gives you as the writer some room for implementing different ideas!
- The Word Should be Multi-Dimensional
- Think about it like this: there are certain words in every language that have multiple interpretations; some people will perceive them differently than others!
- Avoid using terms that are universal in every language; an example would be like "hello" or "telephone". Though there are ways you can stretch information on these terms, it is better to pick a juicy one from the start!
- Term Familiarity
- It will be practically impossible to write about a term that has no correlation with your life. You should choose a word that you know well and that also has undiscovered boxes in your life. Ideally, in any research assignment you ever get, there will be some personality knowledgeable gain!
- Do some historical research!
- Considering that humans have been lingual for centuries, there is a 100% chance that your term has a significant past. Check out the Oxford Dictionary's explanation in order to get yourself a point of relevance!
As with any other essay, you are using this part to start informing your writers about the contents of your paper. In a definition essay, the introduction serves two main goals; first, you must give a "standard" definition of the term, and then give the thesis definition!
- Standard Definition: The initial section of the introduction should state the dictionary version. This is important for the readers to have a starting point in regards to the term so as to clarify any possible questions. Also, this is especially important because the standard definition will slightly vary from the thesis one, which allows for multi-dimensionality!
Thesis Statement
Similar to the classic thesis statement, the thesis definition is your fully completed version of what the term actually means. This is a hybrid of the standard definition, while also mixing in your personal experiences and explanation style! Do not try and describe too much in this section, as you want to split up the bulk of it for the rest of the essay! Make sure that you don't use passive phrases involving the word when defining your term. The phrases like and are especially ponderous.
Body Paragraphs
The body paragraphs are the part of the essay that really breaks down the term into its core parts. You are taking every variation of the definition and its history and breaking it down into organized sections. An example of good body paragraph structure:
- Body Paragraph 1: History and Origin
- Body Paragraph 2: Full dictionary explanation and use.
- Body Paragraph 3: Personal definition created from experience.
The conclusion is fairly simple and to the point. The main goal here is to summarize the main points of your argument. Rephrase the main parts of the definition and make sure you summed up everything you planned on saying. The last thing that should be mentioned is how this term has impacted you. Usually, before even writing the essay, there is a reason a specific term is picked and part of the reason has to do with personal experience.
Post-writing Tip
Mention how the definition you were talking about affected you.
If the term you define plays a specific part in your life and experiences, your final concluding comments are a great place to concisely mention the role it plays.
Definition Essay Examples
Essay Writing Advice From Our Professional Team
Jackson Super Writer, from EssayPro
When writing a definition essay, a common mistake is choosing a term that is way too broad for the given assignment. When you've chosen a term, try to narrow it down so it is easier to define and find examples for. As the article articulates, the term's origin is very important to the word's meaning itself. For example, the word "crush" comes from a variety of similar words in nordic languages. It wouldn't be a bad idea to list every single one of those words as examples. As with word "crush", a word can have multiple meanings. You can crush a bag of chips and you can have a crush on someone. Whatever definition your essay has, make sure to define it in a unique way. Be creative and approach it from a new angle. As the article states, it isn't a bad idea to put in examples from your own life of how that specific word has impacted you. This will definitely make it more interesting for the reader.
Need Some Definition Essay Guidance?
Sometimes it can be hard to find a term we know well that also has a multi-dimensional definition. This is a common problem for college students and one that is commonly solved by buying an essay online! EssayPro, the best essay writing service on the web, has dedicated paper writers that know all the tips and tricks necessary to write an effective definition essay, leaving you and your professor satisfied!
Looking for "Write My Essay" Service? EssayPro can help you with any academic task!
You can use the following questions to edit your own work; however, it is often better to get someone else to edit it also.
1. Definition: Analyze how well the definitions are presented. Do you understand which was the most common? Are the other meanings presented clearly? Is the relationship between the different definitions clear?
2. Organization: Is the thesis clear? Do the topic sentences present the argument clearly? Are they in the right order? Are there good transitions?
3.Use of Sources: Does the paper use the interviews and dictionary definition appropriately? Is the source material integrated into the paper well? Are the quotations well chosen? Are there places the student needs to add more from the sources?
4. Evidence and Argument in Body of Paper: Are the evidence and argument convincing? Do you see points where it is weak? Where did the author need to add more information or argument?Points where the argument is confusing? Does the author move from the least to most convincing evidence/argument? Is the paper written climatically?
5. Title, Beginning and End: Does the title fit the paper? Does the beginning interest the reader? Does the conclusion make a final point rather than just repeating?
6. Sum up: What is best about this essay? What most needs improvement?

Get Chris Thile songs and albums from:
In a review of his quintet Punch Brothers' latest Nonesuch recording, Who's Feeling Young Now?, London's Independent called Chris Thile "the most remarkable mandolinist in the world." The McArthur Foundation echoed that assessment when it named Thile one of its 23 MacArthur Fellows for 2012—a recipient of its prestigious "Genius Grant." In honoring Thile, the MacArthur Foundation noted that his "lyrical fusion of traditional bluegrass with elements from a range of other musical traditions is giving rise to a new genre of contemporary music."
Prior to recording Punch Brothers acclaimed new disc, Thile completed an album of tradition-upending interpretations of bluegrass classics with guitarist Michael Daves, Sleep With One Eye Open, which garnered a 2011 Grammy nomination for Best Bluegrass Album. He also recorded The Goat Rodeo Sessions with cellist Yo-Yo Ma, violinist Stuart Duncan, and Thile's mentor and frequent collaborator Edgar Meyer, which won the 2012 Grammy for Best Folk Album.
After a lengthy 2012 Punch Brothers tour, Thile, always up for another challenge, immediately embarked on a series of duo dates with fellow virtuoso, the jazz pianist Brad Mehldau. Said the Washington Post, "Their complex work translated to plain-faced beauty: simple, direct and exquisite." In between his Punch Brothers shows, Thile also found time to present his Mandolin Concerto: Ad astra per alas porci with several chamber orchestras around the United States, including a date at Carnegie Hall's Stern Auditorium.
A child prodigy, Thile first rose to fame as a member of Grammy Award-winning trio Nickel Creek, with whom he released three albums and sold two million records. As a soloist he has released five albums, as well as performing and recording extensively as a duo with Edgar Meyer and with fellow eminent mandolinist Mike Marshall. Other stellar musicians with whom Thile has collaborated include Béla Fleck and Hilary Hahn. Nonesuch Records released Thile's most recent recording, Bach: Partitas and Sonatas, Vol.1, produced by Meyer, on August 6, 2013.

The Corn Islands
Having spent the last week travelling around in Nicaragua Carolyn and I had planned some R&R for a couple of days in the Corn Islands – Nicaragua's own little Caribbean islands. There are 2 islands, imaginatively named Big and Little Corn. The only way to get to the islands is to take the ferry from … More The Corn Islands

Hi Vern,
I appreciate your great trip reports, and happened upon this one when looking into some of the surrounding peaks. It is a bit of a long story, but I know what mystery object is. It was exactly what my family was looking for in 2014. We had searched for it in the 1990s, without success. Here is a newspaper article that explains the story.
By 2014, the top of the capsule was missing, as were any remaining contents. The outside was much more faded, and I didn't recognize it at first. We still don't know where the capsule was between the 1950s and 1990s.
Cheers and see you out there!

Snapchat has rolled out a more unified visual interface it started testing a couple of weeks ago. The famous app's new interface now has brighter colors as well as an enhanced search.
Snapchat 10, which was launched on Friday now boasts of a more unified visual appearance across the popular picture sharing app. The chat and story screens now have filled-in title bars, while the duplicated search buttons on both features have now been moved to the Camera screen of the app, reports Android Police.
When you tap on the search button, it brings up a list of those friends you contact with all the time, and groups for easy and quick access.
One of the most noticeable changes made to Snapchat 10 is the blue bar now atop for Chats and a purple bar for Stories. Snapchat has decided to relocate the Discover strip to the bottom from top of the Stories section.
With the new search bar, it is easier for users to find what they are looking for. This is made possible by the fact that the feature has now been divided into sections including Quick Chat, My Friends, and New Friends. If you are using the app for the first time, you will most certainly find it easier to find what you are looking for with this new arrangement.
Snapchat 10 is already available for download via the Play Store. You can download it, try it out, and give us a feedback on how the new changes and additions make the app look.
On Monday, it was reported that Snapchat will restrict publishers from using images or headlines that lack editorial value in Discover. This is highly understandable considering the fact that the company aims to make Discover a more serious news source for its users. To prevent minors from accessing inappropriate content on Discover, Snapchat is also planning on adding age-gating tools.
I find this piece of news particularly heartwarming as it indicates that Snapchat will now be paying closer attention to news, and considers its reputation something to be guarded jealously. In limiting what minors can and can't see on its platform, the app is raising the bar and setting itself apart from other social media networks like Twitter and Facebook.
"We have been collaborating closely with all of our publishers, whose content has continued to evolve," said Nick Bell, Snapchat's vice president for content. "We want to be a great partner to all of our editorial partners, and updating our content guidelines to better reflect where our platform is today is an important part of that," per The New York Times.

London. Nowhere says England to those from outside the country quite like the capital city, whose iconography of Tube station signs, red buses, and black cabs have become the iconography of England. Even in cultural historic memory, the coldest English winter we're aware of is referred to as "the winter that the Thames froze over".
The dominance of contemporary iconography has come somewhat late to London, with the Shard finally breaking through the collective associations of Victoriana, the London of Sherlock Holmes and Charles Dickens, the London of the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace, and making a striking statement of London as a city of style, of architectural boldness and daring; a thoroughly modern city with everything the modern tourist could want.
Which of course includes a great range of cafes, some of which we've had a look at, to give you a flavour of the true taste of London.
Top Five Best Cafes in London
#1: Half Moon Cafe
If you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the main areas of London, and enjoy generous portions of proper English nosh, with coffee that doesn't get above itself, and gives you a good serving of hot caffeine at a very welcome price, then the traditional greasy spoon enclave that is the Half Moon Cafe on Fulham Palace Road, in Hammersmith, is the place to be.
Service is with a genuine smile, and, if you're strapped for cash, you can enjoy a good, decent meal and full-size mug of coffee here without any pain at all.
Very much a neighbourhood cafe rather than a tourist trap, this is a nice place to visit if you want to feel like a proper Londoner.
Top Points:
- Epic full English
- Value for money
- Friendly, welcoming vibe and service
- Not one for vegans
#2: E Pellicci (www.epellicci.com)
A workers' cafe that blends English and Italian staples on Bethnal Green Road, E Pellicci comes across very much as being intrinsically East End, but with an Art Deco styling that will appeal to people from all walks of life.
With friendly staff, this is a cafe for all seasons and all tastes.
Top Points:
- Art Deco
- Friendly East End vibe
- English and Italian classics
#3: Coffee, Cake, and Kisses (www.coffeecakekisses.com)
Warren Street, in leafy, aloof Fitzrovia, might not be somewhere you'd expect to find a community hub for alternative, activist types of all stripes, but Coffee, Cake, and Kisses has set up home here, and become a firm favourite with the edge dwellers and outright outsiders of the capital, who'll happily travel to Coffee, Cake, and Kisses' home-away-from-home welcome.
A true hidden gem, Coffee, Cake, and Kisses offers a wide range of vegan options, pleasing a lot of people by offering oat milk as the standard non-dairy option, ensuring that vegans with nut and soya allergies don't have to feel they're being "awkward" by asking for something they can actually drink.
Creating bespoke cakes and sweets, as well as offering an excellent cafe and community space, if you're not the mainstream type, Coffee, Cake, and Kisses is sure to make you feel right at home.
Top Points:
- Alternative, activist vibe
- Community hub
- Oat milk, and plenty of vegan options
#4: 49 Cafe
Offering Italian comfort food, and a fantastic lunchtime salad bar, 49 Cafe, on Marchmont Street in King's Cross gives you friendly service in a cosy, welcoming space that's ideal for grabbing a quick working lunch, or taking a little longer to relax and unwind with a top-quality cup of coffee, and indulge in a spot of people watching.
Top Points:
- Great for people watching
- Varied salad bar selection
- Ideal for lunchtime
#5: Raison D'etre (www.raisondetrecafe.com)
While this Kensington cafe is typically warm and welcoming, they don't offer much for vegans after breakfast, and the options then are very limited. If you're not of the vegan persuasion, however, you'll find the best selection of sandwiches in London at Raison D'etre, which is ideally placed for a pit-stop between museum visits.
Top Points:
- Best selection of sandwiches in London
- Ideally placed for those exploring London's museums

Pro Tools is a multi-track recording program made by Digidesign. Its ease of use has made it the industry standard with professional and amateurs alike. You can do everything from writing and composing with Pro Tools number of built-in plug-ins and sounds, to recording and mixing custom tracks. Pro Tools is as in depth as you want it to be, and there is always something new and exciting to learn.
|Rule 1
|Rule 2
|Rule 3
|Rule 4
|Rule 5
|Rule 6
|Rule 7
|Rule 8
|Pro Tools
Rule 1 got a 3 because, while the program has a consistent look, there are sometimes way too many windows, which is perceptually and cognitively annoying. Rule 2 got a 4 because of the programs depth if you know how to use it. Rule 3 got a 5 because you get an immediate response from any adjustment you make like changing tuning or applying a filter, which uses the programs lexical level. Rule 4 got a 3 due to there not being positive or negative feedback since no one knows the sound you want except for you. Rule 5 got a 2 because you can easily screw things up if you don't know what you're doing, but thankfully everything is easily reversible, hence the 5 rating for rule 6. Rule 7 got a 5 also due to the absolute control of every minute detail this program gives the user, which is immensely satisfying on a cognitive level. Rule 8 received a 2 because the programs massive depth can be a drawback if you can't remember where what you're looking for is.

Curator's Comments:
We first spoke with Wolf Kahn after a talk at the National Academy of
Design, having been introduced by his close friend Annette Blaugrund, then NAD curator. Kahn was
speaking on a small work by Albert Pinkham Ryder--which may seem strange--but the work, a
swirling mass of black and white called "The Storm," clearly had meaning for Kahn--who had a deep
apprehension of Ryder's imagination. We remember that Kahn used the expression that "Nature
makes color," not to signify that Nature acts as an artist coloring the world with its hues--but in a
deeper sense connected to his own colorism--that color is the expression of inherent natural process.
And Kahn has said that his master, Hans Hoffman, "encouraged students to regard color as an
independent entity," and he added, which I still do." Much of this can be seen in "The Cornfield at
Dusk," where color defies the eye of the observer by continually shifting into itself, as greens, blues,
rose tints and dominant yellows seem to open and close on the canvas itself. We make no joke when
we say that this is what SONY aimed at but never got--"living color." Our screen image barely
suggests the saraband of green hues within the yellow cornfield. We show as well a closely related
painting by Kahn, The North Pasture, which exemplifies the same dynamic--a vision that places him
well within the American landscape tradition--and perhaps as its ultimate progenitor. Here Kahn
shows us how the coming late storm gives rise to the vibrant aquamarine hues of the pasture and its
fences--and a gate that pulls the eye into expanding layers of colors. Kahn's study of Kant's
Prolegomena on Beauty, which he says "really affirmed my own idea of absolute beauty," is another
element infusing his colorism, and is at work in his remark that "when I'm painting a tree, if I start
thinking of a branch and I paint it as a branch, it doesn't become nearly as good as if I paint it as a
brush stroke." The integrity of the artistic process makes creation superior to description. This is
why we see Kahn as standing at the end of the great landscape tradition rooted in luminism. When
Kahn was asked, "There's something about landscape painting that has enabled you to attach yourself
to it," he replied: "I never became an abstract painter because I love to draw, I love to represent."
Do you mean, his questioner continued, "the landscape reference asserted itself in the context of
abstraction," and Kahn replied brilliantly: "How about abstraction asserting itself in the context of

Any other questions about our endorsement of Kahn are answered by his biography. He is American
because he went to high school and college here and served in the U.S. Navy. Kahn came from a well-
to-do German artistic family. His father was the conductor of the Stuttgart Philharmonic Symphony,
his mother came from a family of art collectors and his uncle owned a Picasso--which Kahn, deciding
to become an artist at age five, made a cartoon of. Hitler's rise had Kahn first sent to England, and in
1940 he emigrated to the United States. In 1942, he entered New York's High School of Music and
Art, and after wartime service, he entered Hans Hofmann's school, where he met Larry Rivers. Of
his extremely close experience with Hoffmann, Kahn has said, "We who studied with Hofmann felt
ourselves to be the bearers of a more profound message, one better suited to give content and weight
to the calling of artist--and this drive led Kahn to formulated his unique way in of employing
simplified geometric designs while carefully contrasting bold pastels of color and tone. His landscapes,
which he is most recognized for, show him always in pursuit of his intuitive sense of color and
dedicated to the pursuit of a new and verdant natural vision, shaped largely by pleine aire work near
his studio in Vermont. Kahn also established a studio in New York, and he is, without question, one
of the most influential American artists of our generation. By the end of the 1950s, he had developed
his abstracted landscape style, and like Eric Sloane, also started to focus on barns and agrarian
structures--and note the old barn barely present in "The cornfield at Dusk." As one critic put it:
"His paintings are illuminating and beautiful, the colors striking and rich, the process intimately
apparent to the observer." Kahn's work is in the Smithsonian and the Hirschorn, and can be found in
the permanent collections of over 100 museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, and the

Chinese manufacturer China Sunergy has strengthened its presence in Turkey by signing a capital leasing memorandum of understanding with a Turkish lender.
Cell and module manufacturer Sunergy, which has production facilities in Turkey as well as in its homeland, announced the deal with Deniz Finansal Kiralama on its website on Friday.
The Nanjing-based manufacturer, which last month announced shipment of 3 MW of Turkishmade modules from its Istanbul-Tuzla factory for a project in North Carolins, USA, will receive capital leasing from Deniz a subsidiary of the Istanbul-based DenizBank Financial Services Group for projects up to 100 MW in size in Turkey which use Sunergy's modules.
