|Simplifying Graphics-Based Data: Applying the Fisheye Lens Viewing Strategy
|Deborah Mitta; David Gunning
|This paper applies an information presentation technique known as the 'fisheye lens' viewing strategy to the electronic presentation of maintenance data. Previous research efforts have focused on implementing this particular technique as a tool to aid in data base navigation, more specifically, as a means of facilitating the access and comprehension of computer-based information. In this paper, however, the technique serves as a mechanism for reducing the complexity of graphics-based aircraft maintenance data. Our complexity reduction procedure is described, and example views demonstrating the procedure are provided. A brief tutorial describing the fisheye lens viewing strategy is also included.
|Investigating Touchscreen Typing: The Effect of Keyboard Size on Typing Speed
|Andrew Sears; Doreen Revis; Janet Swatski; Rob Crittenden; Ben Shneiderman
|Two studies investigated the effect keyboard size has on typing speed and error rates for touchscreen keyboards using the lift-off strategy. A cursor appeared when users touched the screen and a key was selected when they lifted their finger from the screen. Four keyboard sizes were investigated ranging from 24.6cm to 6.8cm wide. Results indicate that novices can type approximately 10 words per minute (WPM) on the smallest keyboard and 20 WPM on the largest. Experienced users improved to 21 WPM on the smallest keyboard and 32 WPM on the largest. These results indicate that, although slower, small touchscreen keyboards can be used for limited data entry when the presence of a regular keyboard is not practical. Applications include portable pocket-sized or palmtop computers, messaging systems, and personal information resources. Results also suggest the increased importance of experience on these smaller keyboards. Research directions are suggested.
|Status Conspicuity, Peripheral Vision, and Text Editing
|Derek Scott
|This HCI study involved use of both an automated keystroke protocol analyser and eye movement monitoring equipment. Four levels of peripheral salience (conspicuity) of status information were employed. This increased the possibility of using peripheral vision whilst decreasing the probability of relying on eye movements. Superior performance was found in the condition with high conspicuity. It was suggested that this was accounted for by the relative lack of disruptive saccades, reading and relocating one's place. The main study was supported by a fine-grained eye movement analysis of the visual tasks involved. It was concluded that the peripheral presentation of text-editing status information is at present grossly underused, perhaps particularly so for novices.
|The Effects of Feedback on Performance and Retention of Skill for a Natural Language Interface
|Ann M. Bisantz; Joseph Sharit
|This study investigated the effectiveness of different types of on-line feedback following user errors for informing users of the information and functions available in a system with a natural language interface. Twenty-four individuals performed a task based on an industry cost savings program, in which they were given general goals to pursue with regard to the task. Three feedback levels which differed according to the type and amount of feedback provided, along with two levels of system complexity, were examined. In addition, subjects performed the task again after one week to determine the effects of feedback on retention. Results indicated that the subjects in the second level of feedback generally performed better with respect to accessing system functions and information than those in the first level. Although there was some performance improvement from the second to third level, it was not significant. However, the third level of feedback did significantly improve the efficiency with which subjects used information to complete the task during the return condition. Overall, feedback did not affect the errors made, though at certain more limited stages of the tasks this effect was observed.
|Combining Natural Language with Direct Manipulation: The Conceptual Framework for a Hybrid Human-Computer Interface
|Shinji Agou; Victor Raskin; Gavriel Salvendy
|This paper describes the development of a conceptual model of an interaction
system for future human-computer interaction. It is suggested that an
integrated system is the most promising solution for diverse users and tasks.
A 'hybrid interaction system' is considered, which tries to efficiently direct
manipulation, menu selection, and natural language. The mechanism of the
natural language interface module is described in more detail. Finally, the
allocation of functionalities for generalized tasks on the conceptual model is
considered from the taxonomic approach.

|Evaluation of User Interfaces: EVADIS II -- A Comprehensive Evaluation Approach
|Harald Reiterer; Reinhard Oppermann
|As a result of the importance of the usability approach in system
development and the EC's 'Directive concerning the minimum safety and health
requirements for VDT workers' (EWG 1990), there is an accepted need for
practical evaluation methods for user interfaces. The usability approach and
the EC Directive are not restricted to user interface design, as they include
the design of appropriate hardware and software, as well as organization, job,
and task design. Therefore system designers are faced with many, often
conflicting, requirements and need to address the question, 'How can usability
requirements comprehensively be considered and evaluated in system
development?' Customers buying hardware and software and introducing them into
their organization ask, 'How can I select easy-to-use hardware and software?'
Both designers and customers need an evaluation procedure that covers all the
organizational, user, hard- and software requirements. The evaluation method,
EVADIS II, we present in this paper overcomes characteristic deficiencies of
previous evaluation methods. In particular, it takes the tasks, the user, and
the organizational context into consideration during the evaluation process,
and provides computer support for the use of the evaluation procedure.

|Sleuthing in HyperHolmes: An Evaluation of Using Hypertext vs. a Book to Answer Questions
|Laura Marie Leventhal; Barbee Mynatt Teasley; Keith Instone; Diane Schertler Rohlman; John Farhat
|Although hypertext offers exciting new ways of presenting and accessing information, there is little research which systematically compares the usability of hypertext against traditional media with an eye to improving the design of the hypertext. This paper presents the results of an experiment which examined the performance and navigation strategies of users engaged in a question-answering task using either a hypertext encyclopedia of Sherlock Holmes facts (the HyperHolmes system) or the traditional paper form. The results showed that, overall, the hypertext users were marginally more accurate in answering questions, and excelled at questions where the key information was embedded in a text entry. The book users were marginally faster overall, but excelled only in answering questions based on graphics. Hypertext users showed a preference for those tools which most closely mimicked use of a conventional book. They used a hierarchical structure to guide their navigation strategy in early trials, but soon learned to navigate in a non-hierarchical, flat way.
|Computer Assistance in Design Engineering
|Yvonne Wærn; Karl-Gustaf Wærn
|The design engineering process is analysed from a cognitive ergonomics point of view, relating it to models of problem-solving and cognitive skills. Observations from several Swedish studies are discussed in this framework. Results indicate that CAD systems require some re-thinking; in particular concepts related to the computer storage have to be incorporated in the problem space of design. As to heuristics, CAD systems seem to offer a wide variety of working. Cognitive skills related to CAD seem to be easily acquired, although the transition between different CAD systems will cause some initial problems. In general it is found that current CAD systems mainly support the detail design phase. Some ideas for future systems which would support the conceptual design phase in addition are discussed.
|Visual Search in Modern Human-Computer Interfaces
|Derek Scott
|This article reviews aspects of visual search in relation to computer visual
display units. Theoretical issues such as eye movements in visual search are
discussed as well as practical examples such as the role of array shape, the
benefits of cursor-presented status (insert vs overtype) information,
conspicuity of peripherally presented information, and possible benefits of
anti-aliased fonts. In association with the four experiments relating to these
aspects, the respective follow-up eye movement monitoring studies are also
described as these allowed quantification of what otherwise might only have
been inferred. The review concludes with four major recommendations. First,
much scope remains for exploring the optimization of status (e.g.,
cursor-presented) information. Second, it would be worth exploring whether
icons, like verbal labels, are susceptible to an array shape effect. Third,
further work is required (e.g. in the possible role of articulatory
differences) in accounting for the ease of locatability of icons over words.
Fourth, spatial frequency analysis seems likely to be a major research field
over the next decade.

|Solutioneering in User Interface Design
|Harold Thimbleby; Will Thimbleby
|The aim of this paper is to encourage more considered design by discussing one of the consequences of narrow problem solving. We discuss a way in which designers solve their own problems, rather than address broader issues of user-centred design. We use the term 'solutioneering' for this. Having available a word for an attitude helps it to be mastered consciously.
|Can Information Technology Improve the Quality of Democracy?
|Edwin Bos
|As the September 1991 issue of Scientific American shows, the large scale integration of computer networks within our society can produce important infrastructural changes. However, one major field of application is not addressed in that issue: politics. In this short paper, I call for an investigation of the impact that computer networks can have on political systems.

|Computer Communication as an Aid to Independence for Older Adults
|Sara J. Czaja; Jose H. Guerrier; Sankaran N. Nair; Thomas K. Landauer
|Computer and communication technologies offer the potential of improving the quality of life for older people by providing them with links to information and services outside of the home. This study examined the feasibility of older people using an electronic text message system to perform routine communication tasks. In addition information was gathered to identify design parameters which facilitate the interactions of older people with such computer based systems. A specialized and simplified 'communication computer' was placed in the homes of 36 older women, aged 50-95 years. The system was provided with: a simple text-editor, basic electronic mail functions and access to news/ weather, movie reviews, and health information. Both performance data and user preference data were collected. Results indicated that the participants liked using the system, were able to use it with minimal difficulty, and that it provided a valuable means for social interaction and mental stimulation. The findings suggest that computer-based systems can be a valuable support tool for older adults if they are easy to use, and provide applications that are useful for them.
|Sound Effects as an Interface Element for Older Users
|Jakob Nielsen; Lynn Schaefer
|Users who were between 70 and 75 years old with a mean age of 71.8 years
were tested using a paint program that could generate a variety of sound
effects to accompany and differentiate the paint tools. Even though the sound
effects seemed enjoyable to several younger interface analysts, the older users
testing the program with sound effects did not find the program more enjoyable
than those testing it in a silent mode. Also, the older test users found the
interface more difficult to use when they were exposed to the sounds, possibly
because they were overwhelmed by the multimedia effects.

|Executive Support Systems in Strategic Environmental Information Processing
|Pien Wang; Efraim Turban
|Environmental scanning and interpretation (ES&I) provides crucial information upon which strategic decision-making is based. This paper introduces a model that discusses five information filters observable during information processing in ES&I. It also examines the attributes that may influence the performance of each filter. The paper then shows how an executive support system (ESS), especially when enhanced with artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, can be used to lessen the potential negative effects that may be created by the filters.
|A Transaction Cost View of Decision Support Systems
|Reima Suomi
|Research and practice in decision support systems have often been said to
focus too much on individual decision-making, when decisions actually are made
by groups. Another shortfall of current research is the absence of any
established theory or framework on which to base it. A third shortfall is the
lack of connections between theory and actual implementation in terms of
information technology. The first two problems in particular are addressed in
this study. Decision-making is considered to be a group activity -- rather
than an individual activity -- in which as a matter of fact a contract between
the decision-makers is established. The contracts incur transaction costs,
which may or may not be covered by the extra value gained by the contract.
Transaction costs in the contract formulation phase should be eliminated, and
information technology in its various forms is a principal means by which to
achieve this end. Different kinds of technologies support different kinds of
contracts. This is why decision-makers should understand the nature of their
decision-making situation and select the information technology tools most
suitable for the situation. The different factors causing transaction costs in
decision-making -- contracting -- are identified, and the means to eliminate
them by information technology are presented. This study is based on a
transaction cost perspective of organizations. Information technology is seen
as a primary means to lower transaction costs. Thus, the necessary theoretical
framework so often missing in information technology research is provided. The
results of the study stem from empirical research, the aim of which was to
investigate and to understand information technology from the viewpoint of
transaction costs.

|Decision-Making in Management Information Systems Research: The Utility of Policy Capturing Methodology
|Joseph J. Martocchio; Jane Webster; Charles R. Baker
|Although decision-making represents a fundamental issue in management information systems (MIS), obtaining accurate assessments of the factors affecting employees' decisions may be difficult using traditional methods such as ratings and rankings. Policy capturing, a little-used method in MIS, represents a potentially important alternative to more traditional methods. After demonstrating that policy capturing has been underutilized in MIS, the paper illustrates the use of policy capturing in two decision-making contexts -- computer training and software selection. These two studies contrast policy capturing results with more traditional methods, and draw implications for research.
|An Instrument for the Measurement of the Visual Quality of Displays
|Gerd P. J. Spenkelink; Ko Besuijen; Jacco Brok
|Three basic approaches towards the measurement of the visual quality of VDUs exist. These coincide with taking measures at the subject, description through display statistics, and obtaining user judgments. It is argued that the last has some specific advantages. Therefore a rating scale has been constructed for the measurement of the visual quality of alphanumeric displays. This Display Evaluation Scale (DES) is based on the notion that display quality is a multidimensional concept. The scale is intended for application in quite unrestrictive settings. The DES can be used as a design, evaluation or research tool. The DES, its development and software implementation are described. In the discussion of a number of experiments it is shown that a high reliability of the measurements can be achieved with a relatively small sample size. Preliminary results on the validity of the scale are presented briefly and implications for future research are indicated.

|Social Systems that Marginalize the Psychological and Organizational Aspects of Information Technology
|Chris W. Clegg
|This polemical paper is concerned with identifying the factors which serve to marginalize the psychological and organizational aspects of the development, implementation and use of information technology. Five sets of factors are delineated, those associated with: end-users; suppliers, 'experts' and the development process; management and organizations; research and development; and education and understanding. The analysis points to the presence of a complex, mutually reinforcing set of social systems acting to marginalize psychological and organizational concerns, and helps explain the massive difficulties in achieving change. It also reveals that psychological and organizational expertise tends to be supply-pushed rather than demand-pulled into the community. This may help explain why many working in this field fail to practice the user-centred approaches that we preach.
|Social and Psychological Aspects of Computer-Aided Design Systems
|Svante Hovmark; Margareta Norell
|A study was performed among design employees in three large companies to investigate the psychosocial effects of computer-aided design (CAD) work. The study included all technical employees of the departments selected, of whom about two-thirds worked with CAD systems. The results demonstrate that 90% of the CAD users have a positive attitude to CAD-work. No significant differences were found between CAD users and non-CAD users in terms of work load, autonomy, social support, job satisfaction, personal development, or degree of co-operation. Within the group of CAD users, those spending a larger number of weekly working hours with the CAD system reported lower work complexity, lower autonomy of work methods, and less job satisfaction. CAD users with a relatively higher number of years of CAD experience reported a greater work load, fewer CAD difficulties, and lower autonomy of work methods. Among draftspersons and designers, there were no significant differences in work activities between CAD users and non-CAD users.
|Social Isolation and Integration in Electronic Environments
|Lilas H. Taha; Barrett S. Caldwell
|This paper examines the role of communications technology advances in affecting social interactions in groups and organizations. A discussion of the functions of communication and contact leads to the development of the concept of the 'electronic environment'. Past research identifies issues of a person's need for contact and the costs and benefits of contact in computer-mediated or other electronic communications media. In this paper, these issues focus on social isolation, integration, and feedback between group members as vital aspects of effective group interaction. Understanding of these aspects is presented as a key to appreciating the influence of communications media on organizational and social behaviour. Although the initial focus of this paper is on interactions between individuals within a group, applications are also discussed regarding interactions between groups, or between individuals and others outside the primary group. Examinations of the implications of the concept of electronic environments includes directions for future development and integration of research perspectives.
|Computer User Training and Attitudes: A Study of Business Undergraduates
|Gholamreza Torkzadeh; Xenophon Koufteros
|For many users, the first real encounter with a computer occurs when taking
an introductory course to computers at a college. To the extent that these
training courses impact user understanding and motivation, they are important
determinants of the user attitudes towards computers and merit serious
assessment. Using 327 business undergraduates at two universities in the US,
this paper reports on the reactions of students to computers and
computer-related tasks before and after an introductory course to computers.
Responses to a 20-item scale were analyzed to examine the pattern of attitude
change experienced by students in their training course. Factor analysis
revealed five constructs for describing patterns of computer user attitude:
negative reaction to computers; positive reaction to computers; reaction to
computers for children education, reaction to computer-mediated services; and
reaction to computer games. Four factors show significant change in mean
scores after the training courses. The attitudes changed for males more than
females, indicating improvement in attitudes. The respondents' attitude to
computer-mediated services remained unchanged. While the directions of changes
indicate an overall improvement in respondents' reactions, many attitudes did
not change significantly after having taken the training courses. This may be
due to the content or the format of these courses.
Keywords: Computer training, Computer user attitudes
|Effects of Hedonic Components and User's Gender on the Acceptance of Screen-Based Information Services
|Norbert Mundorf; Stu Westin; Nikhilesh Dholakia
|To compete successfully with other information media, screen-based information services would have to offer hedonic qualities that appeal to a wide range of users, men as well as women. To study effects of hedonic components of information services, a software simulation of an interactive service was designed. In an experiment, 59 female and 73 male subjects were exposed to this software simulation. Hedonic features (presence or absence of colour, graphics, and music) of the simulated information service were factorially varied to form eight unique treatment configurations. Music and colour were shown to affect level of enjoyment and intention to use the service. The effects varied according to gender: females showed greater intention to use the service than did males. Males showed greater preference for the colour version. These findings provide some basic design guidelines for information service marketers and point to the need for future research-based exploration of this area.
|Expertise Transfer, Knowledge Elicitation, and Delayed Recall in a Design Context
|Nathalie Bonnardel
|This paper describes a new method for knowledge elicitation that may
contribute to effective expertise transfer from human experts to
knowledge-based systems. The method was applied to knowledge transfer in an
aerospace design context. Knowledge was transferred directly from an expert
designer to both expert and novice "receivers" of information. Transfer
occurred in a natural way, without intervention from a knowledge engineer. To
evaluate the process, the information receivers were required to recall the
transmitted knowledge after a seven week delay. Results suggest that this
method can be effective for expertise transfer and can indicate desirable
characteristics for knowledge-based systems which aim to be adaptable to users'
differing levels of competence.

|The History and Future of Direct Manipulation
|David M. Frohlich
|The earliest interactive computer systems were based on a conversational mode of interaction in which user and computer communicated through the exchange of linguistic utterances. Since the advent of 'direct manipulation' technology there has been a tendency to develop and promote an alternative mode of interaction, based on the user's manipulation of computer-displayed objects. This paper reviews recent developments in the implementation and understanding of direct manipulation interfaces. These point to various limitations in manipulative interaction which might be overcome through the selective reintroduction of conversational interaction. A new philosophy of graceful interaction is suggested to accommodate these developments in which directness is said to be a property of both action and language based systems. A number of practical guidelines are offered to reduce the incidence of clumsy manipulation.
|Short Term Memory Demands in Processing Synthetic Speech by Old and Young Adults
|Janan Al-Awar Smither
|This experiment investigated the demands synthetic speech places on short term memory by comparing performance of old and young adults on an ordinary short term memory task. Items presented were generated by a human speaker or by a computer based text-to-speech synthesizer. Results were consistent with the idea that the comprehension of synthetic speech imposes increased resource demands on the short term memory system. Older subjects performed significantly more poorly than younger subjects, and both groups performed more poorly with synthetic than with human speech. Findings suggest that short term memory demands imposed by the processing of synthetic speech should be investigated further, particularly regarding the implementation of voice response systems in devices for the elderly.
|Future Assessment by Metaphors
|August Tepper
|Technology assessment is confronted with a dilemma. On the one hand it needs a reliable basis for its predictions. Quite often this basis is delivered when prototypes of a new technology can be studied, but often technology assessment is started after a product has been placed on the market. At this time all the data are available, but very little can be changed and improved. Analyzing the paradigms and metaphors used as orientation in the early stages of research and development is one approach for dealing with this problem. Technology assessment can use the resulting analyses to derive certain properties of a new technology and for an evaluation of impacts.
|Nine- to Fourteen-Year-Old Children's Conception of Computers Using Drawings
|Pearl Denham
|This paper deals with one of several methods which were used to investigate the existence, nature and factors influencing a child's (9-14 years) conception of a computer system. Drawings by subjects as a method of data collection is introduced and discussed. Three empirical studies are described which examine the child's model in terms of its components, conduits and causal effect. The factors of age and experience are highlighted as is the discovery that task orientation led to the implication that no single mental model exists.
|External Power Frequency Magnetic Field-Induced Jitter on Computer Monitors
|Monica Sandstrom; Kjell Hansson Mild; Mattias Sandstrom; Andre Berglund
|Power frequency magnetic fields with flux densities greater than 0.5
µT are not uncommon in offices. This level has been shown to induce
jitter on VDT monitors. In the present project, these magnetic field-induced
disturbances have been studied in the laboratory in order to establish a firm
technical basis for future studies of the disturbance's influence on eye strain
in VDT workers. Eight volunteers judged the occurrence of distortion when an
applied external magnetic field was varied both in amplitude and frequency for
8 investigated VDT screens. The level of the external 50 Hz magnetic field
when the distortion was detectable ranged from 0.6 to 1.1 µT. If the
screen was viewed through a stereomicroscope (25 x magnification), the
corresponding level was in the order of 0.2 µT. If the frequency
difference between the external magnetic field and the refresh rate of the
screen is only ±1-2 Hz, the disturbance is noticeable at even lower flux

In order to get to the foundation of each character and extract their personas, in addition to planning out the logistics of each pattern, I find eliminating color helps boil the designs down. Once it came time to present the new generation of costumes, I decided to show just a glimpse of the color way. By layering a piece of sheer vellum with marker and color pencil a top the original drawing, I created a "peek-a-boo" effect for the viewer. The final image is a Photoshopped rendering to communicate the liveliness of our LED system within the costumes.
Now you know!

"One motto, one badge, one bond, and singleness of heart!"
Since our founding, over 100,000 women have choose to join AOII and share in the dream. Today, members continue to strive for the high aspirations that reflect each of the four founders' lives, and upon which the fraternity was established. The object of our fraternity is to encourage a spirit of fraternity and love among its members; to stand at all times for integrity, dignity, scholarship, and college loyalty; to strive for and support the best interests of the Colleges and Universities in which chapters are installed; and in no way disregard, injure or sacrifice those interests for the sake of the prestige or advancement of the fraternity
Color- cardinal
Flower- jacqueminot rose
Jewel- ruby
Badge- monogram of Greek letters that say AOII
Pledge Pin- sheaf of wheat
Crest- AOII is the only women's fraternity that does not
use a crest. Our founders felt that the beauty and simplicity of our badge possessed enough significance to stand alone. Crests are medieval, and we are founded on Greek ideals. Where other groups might use a crest, we display the rose.
Magazine- To Dragma, which means the sheaf.
Philanthropy- Arthritis Research
The Huntsville AOII Alumnae chapter was first chartered on December 20, 1952, with ten members. Later, it changed to club status. The second and present charter was bestowed on December 5, 1964. At that time, there were nineteen members.
Since 1964, we have been an active chapter, not only in AOII but in both community and panhellenic. In 1970, we established the Huntsville arthritis office. In 1971, we began the Arthritis Victory March. Under the leadership of Lenora Grumbles, Lambda Sigma, University of Georgia, the Huntsille Panhellenic became an official member of the National Panhellenic Council.
We have assisted several collegiate chapters. In 1967, we assisted the University of Alabama in the organization and installation of our Alpha Delta chapter. We have a history of having alumnae who serve as collegiate advisors.
Our chapter has received many service and achievement awards over the years. These include awards from the Alabama Chapter of the National Arthritis Foundation and AOII achievement certificates, including finalist for the Distinguished Service Award in 1991, the Distinguished Service Award in 1993, and finalist again in 1995.
Our members support AOII both regionally and internationally. Carole Jones, Alpha Delta, University of Alabama, is International President; Toni Morgan, Alpha Chi, Western Kentucky, is one of the Collegiate Regional Network Directors; Kitty Pettus-Hinds, Nu Beta, University of Mississippi, is an Alumnae Network Specialist; and Elise Moss-Simmons, Tau Delta, Birmingham-Southern College, is past Foundation president.

1 John 3:20 – "Even if we feel guilty, God is greater than our feelings, and He knows everything." NLT
Trying to deal with a break-up one night, I dropped my daughter off with a friend. I was in need of some alone time to fight through these negative feelings I was having. [SN: Its important to protect our babies from our meltdowns. Children sense pain, and they feel helpless to help us. Which in turn creates tension within them. On the other hand it is good for them to see us worship because it shows them how to go before God with a thankful heart. I'll talk about that in another post!]
Ephesians 6:12 – "For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits." NLT
In Matthew 12, Jesus uses a parable about how an "evil" spirit operates. They look around for "empty" places to consume. Then when they find one, they go get some more of their buddies (stronger than itself) to help them take over the empty place. When I read this God gave me this awesome revelation, "Just because your home is clean does not mean it is operating in a CLEAN spirit." In other words, you have to give your belongings to somebody. Jesus says, "You're either with me or against" (paraphrasing).
Psalm 91:9-12 "If you make the Lord your refuge, if you make the Most High your shelter, no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home. For He will order His angels to protect you wherever you go. They will hold you up with their hands so you won't even hurt your foot on a stone." NLT 🙂
So, with that being said I have started playing Pandora from the time I wake-up until the time I go to bed! No worries, it is playing through Wi-Fi on the IPad. Therefore, I am not using too much electricity or a data plan! I purposefully set the atmosphere in my home. Sometimes it is (naturally) clean or often dirty with toys, clothes, etc. But at the end of the day, playing music is my sign to God, as well as the enemy, that this [MY HOME] is no where near vacant! The Spirit of God has all rights to THIS place! Be real with the enemy!
2 Corinthians 12:9 – "…He said, "My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness." NLT
Back to me trying to deal with my negative emotions! As I was on my way home, I was a hot mess. I was feeling guilty and kept playing thoughts in my mind that I had messed up. I was tripping! The tears just kept coming as I dropped my daughter off and was headed to my place. At this point, I would like to imagine the enemy on my tail ready to devour me in the state of mind I was in.
Up until, I GOT HOME…
Once again, I want to imagine an angel of Heaven's Army at my door, cutting the enemy off as I went in and shut the door. Like, completely cutting off the enemy's tread into my home. He blocked the enemy, so I would not fall. Why is this important?!
Well, like I mentioned earlier I like to play Pandora up until I wake up and to when I lay my head down at night. I even leave it playing while I'm gone! So, when I walk into my home Israel & New Breed's song, "Nothing Else Matters" is playing on Pandora. My atmosphere was set to comfort my weeping spirit. Remember, my mind was already off to the races and trying to ward off an attack from the enemy, by myself, (probably) would have been really hard. But thank God for that song! It's lyrics reminded me that nothing else matters. Even when I feel like throwing in the towel the Spirit is there to remind me that nothing else matters but seeking MY Jesus.
2 Chronicles 2:15 – "…This is what the Lord says: Do not be afraid! Don't be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but God's." NLT
Talk about being lifted out of defeat. Here I am being comforted and renewed by the Spirit, and protected at the same time! God is amazing! The enemy almost had this chick, but God had my front AND my back. All because I let Him have reign in my home. Thank God I'll never know how my night would have ended had I not already had my atmosphere set. ❤
Isaiah 41:13 – "For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, 'Do not fear; I will help you.' " NIV

Donald Trump used another gig on Fox & Friends Monday to rant about a "dishonest" press, saying it made him look like a defender of LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling, banished for life from the NBA for his racist remarks.
The sometime Republican presidential wannabe held forth last week describing Sterling confidante/assistant/friend V. Stiviano as "the girlfriend from hell."
What Trump said was fully reported by news organizations, from Politico to Huffington Post to seattlepi.com, which was: "She's called the girlfriend from hell, but what he (Sterling) said was terrible and despicable and very strong action is going to be taken. There's no question about it."
But Trump complained that news organizations only covered the "girlfriend from hell" remark and ignored his criticism of Sterling.
"Nobody was tougher on Donald Sterling than I was," said Trump. Still, as a man with past mistress experience, Trump feels that Stiviano is "bad news."
"Reporters are really dishonest, especially political reporters," added Trump. Trump has made self-promotion in the news media a lifelong occupation and has teased the press by floating rumors of a White House run since 1987.
After promoting "birther" theories that President Obama was not born in the United States, Trump has now taken up a new cause — the Sept. 11, 2012, Benghazi assault in which U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens was killed.
Benghazi has become a cause celebre for Fox News and House Republicans, who have just established a select committee to investigate (and discredit possible 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton).
"Most of the press, the liberal press, particularly does not want to talk about Benghazi," Trump alleged, "and they want to protect anybody involved with respect to Benghazi."
Curiously, the most thoroughly discredited report on the Benghazi attacks was broadcast on CBS News, long the news organization most reviled by the right wing.
What news organization most riles "the Donald."
"Huffington Post is, like, pathetic," said Trump.

Woodneath Farms showcases five homes, fabulous community during Fall Parade
Information provided by Hunt Midwest
Those looking to make the most of their time during the Fall Parade of Homes are encouraged to stop in Woodneath Farms where five completed homes are open to tour.
"We've had hundreds of visitors to the community over the past week," said Sherri Cole, ReeceNichols real estate agent and co-community manager. "Not only is this a great opportunity for people to view homes that have been professionally designed and furnished, but it's also a great time to show off the neighborhood and all of its incredible features and amenities."
Developed by Hunt Midwest, Woodneath Farms has long been a destination community with rolling hills and larger homesites offering picturesque views of farmland, the Shoal Creek Golf Course and, in some cases, the skyline of downtown Kansas City. Its prime Northland location on Flintlock Road just north of Missouri 152 makes for a quick commute to business districts, shopping and entertainment areas and many of the city's popular attractions.
Woodneath Farms residents have a Kansas City address while students attend schools within the highly-acclaimed Liberty School District.
"Many of our residents chose Woodneath Farms as it allowed them to meet residency requirements as set forth by their employers and send their children to excellent schools," said Cole.
Woodneath Farms amenities are designed with families in mind and include a competition-size swimming pool, lake and fountain, walking trails, playground, nature areas, tennis court, picnic pavilion, recreation area, generous landscaping and brick entrance monuments. The Mid-Continent Public Library Woodneath branch and Shoal Creek Elementary are situated on either side of the community's entrance off Flintlock Road, adding additional conveniences within walking distance.
"When you drive into Woodneath Farms, you know you're somewhere special," said Cole. "The combination of location, amenities and overall sense of community has made this award-winning neighborhood the perfect place for hundreds of families to call home."
Available homes and homesites can be found in two distinct areas of the neighborhood – The Links and The Highlands. Situated on the west end of the community, The Links offers premium homesites and homes from the upper $300,000s, many of which back to the golf course. A select team of builders include Aspen Homes, Klopfenstine Construction, McFarland Custom Builders, SAB Homes and Summit Custom Homes.
Further north is The Highlands, a collection of homes and homesites located along rolling hills and greenspace. Three award-winning builders provide a collection of homes starting in the mid $300,000s and include Brookeview Homes, Cardinal Crest Homes and Olympus Custom Homes.
"Even if you're not in the market for a new home, the Parade is a no-pressure way to tour the homes in the neighborhood," explains Cole. "Many visitors that come out are simply curious about new construction or are looking for remodeling and decorating ideas. Regardless of your motivation, I encourage you to stop to see the gorgeous homes Woodneath Farms has to offer."
The Fall Parade of Homes, presented by the Home Builders Association of Greater Kansas City, offers free admission to tour over 300 homes throughout the Kansas City area, each open 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily now through Oct. 9. Parade guides may be picked up at any home on the Parade or at the HBA office at 600 E. 103rd St., Kansas City, near Interstate 435 and Holmes Road. More information can be found at KCParadeofHomes.com.

This part of the course taught me i should be more carefully at time that i choose books for the class. This unit also highlighted that a teacher do not have to concentrate only on the book and not get out of it. But also it's necessary that teacher to look for extra information or extra explanaition about the language to teach, Teacher must be varied with teaching.As a native English speaker it has been very insightful to revisit the fundamentals of English grammar so that I can explain to students why or why not a certain expression is grammatically correct or incorrect.

Lending operations are key source of income for credit unions. By utilizing Sharetec's Automated Lending rules and officer limits, credit unions can begin to better manage incoming revenue and mitigate risk.
Filling out a loan application shouldn't be a slow and complicated process. In this day and age of super-fast computing and automated processes filling out a loan should take 5 minutes. With Sharetec, this becomes a reality.
Ideal for establishing and streamlining lending guidelines, Automated Lending from Sharetec is a decision tool used in conjunction with Sharetec's loan application. It automatically generates approval or denial of a loan based on up to eleven (11) pre-established and weighted criteria. As debt and income information is recorded, factors such as disposable income, debt ratios and loan-to-value percentages are automatically calculated for the applicant and co-applicant.
Credit unions can customized these rules by weighting the selected criteria based on what is most important to the institution. By doing so, Credit unions using Sharetec Automated Lending rules can remain sensitive to the financial needs of the members they serve.
Sharetec also puts control in the hands of credit union management when it comes to its employees. With officer limits, Sharetec allows management to control the types and amounts of loans that get approved. Credit unions using this tool can manage new loan officers more effectively, reducing costly lending errors.

To some people, the job of applying for a financial loan is really a chore even at the very best of occasions. Furthermore we must complete applications and convey the needed documentation, we have to also wait to understand if our application was effective. This is often a nervous time, especially since applications for private loans with poor credit aren't usually supported with great confidence.
But applications for loans with poor credit don't have to function as the chore they appear. Nor do they need to be nervous uncertainties that leave us located on the advantage in our seats. Actually, as long as the applying is in proper order, there's every need to believe that it'll be effective.
It is because, for each loan provider, the main concern when assessing a credit card applicatoin isn't the credit score from the applicant, nor even how big the borrowed funds itself, however that the repayments are affordable and also the schedule is going to be stuck to. So, getting personal bank loan approval despite a bad credit score isn't impossible, particularly when some easy steps are adopted.
Choose the best Loan
The very first factor to complete would be to grasp the kind of loan the application is perfect for. There's several kind of personal bank loan with a bad credit score, and there's apt to be one ideal for your circumstance.
Financing term can vary from 2 days (a pay day loan) to 35 or 4 decades (a home loan or mortgage loan). The most important thing to know would be that the longer the borrowed funds term, the higher the interest compensated over its lifetime. However, applications for loans with poor credit may also be affected positively through the term since the longer the word the smaller sized the repayments.
How big the borrowed funds is a vital element in getting personal bank loan approval despite a bad credit score. But as long as the monthly earnings of you can easily cover the repayment amount, a large loan of $50,000, for instance, could be approved.
Guaranteed versus Short Term Loans
Possibly the most important difference is the fact that between guaranteed and short term loans. A personal bank loan with poor credit could be harder to achieve approval on due to the fact there's no collateral provided, and then the application is recognized as a greater risk by lenders.
With regards to guaranteed loans, unhealthy credit tag is quite minor because the collateral itself helps make the loan a secure investment. Because of this, applications for loans with poor credit, when supported with security like some jewellery or perhaps a vehicle, is welcomed by lenders.

text: In keeping with my plan, I head down to Science World, strategy in hand. Tonight I dance without a personal stereo device. I mean, if one of the points of mobile clubbing is to do something on your own simultaneously within a community, what happens when you try to enter that community without following the proper rules? Well, if I thought I was uncomfortable being looked upon by those who pass by, and my camera pointed directly on me for a whole half hour, this night was excruciating. Without an internal focus, ie. the music, my attention was propelled much further than the bubble-like boundary of space in which my body occupied. To further complicate the matter, I was without a stereo, the signifier that alerts people to why I am there and what I am doing. So, the gaze was not only from the passer-by, but also from other members of the group. Although I could be imagining this due to my heightened self-awareness, I am sure I did notice more eye contact that was not followed by a smile. Last night, eye contact was usually always followed with a smile, the smile of recognition that we were into this activity together. So there I was, trying to dance away with no music and not much connection with my comrades. It certainly felt as if I was on the edge of a dance circle, not able to get in.

Transfer Policy
Author: ExWHUEmployee. Published: 6 July 2017 at 9:40pm
Written by Katie S @ Flump 9
Well another day and yet another twitter meltdown from the West Ham fan base, but I can't help but agree with how they are feeling. The rumours of Bilic not wanting Iheanacho, because he is unproven and the worry that Everton will beat us to another transfer target, it is all just too familiar and we desperately want and need change.
Okay, I'm not panicking yet, as we all know anything can happen, even on the last day of the transfer window. However, we also know that you can be told not to go to bed and stay up awaiting a transfer deal, for nothing to materialise and be left hugely disappointed!
Having said all of this, what concerns me more than anything is the lack of consistency when it comes to our transfer policy. It is pretty evident for everyone to see that the board and Bilic don't agree on potential targets, we only have to look at Tore and Zaza. For me this is a massive cause for concern and something that has got to be worked on.
I don't claim to be a football expert and I can't say that I know enough about Iheanacho to really state whether Bilic is right or wrong in his reasons for not wanting to sign him, but surely stating that he is unproven and a gamble is crazy. Most of West Ham's recent signings have been unproven, some of which have been successful and others simply disastrous. It is a gamble that you either choose to take or don't, but if he was that much of a gamble, why would Manchester City fight so hard for a buy-back clause? If it is true that we want Gray but not Iheanacho, it is madness and once again contradicts some of Bilic's decisions! Where is the consistency in our transfer policy approach for players?
If we don't sign Iheanacho, I will be disappointed but not devastated (I know I have mentioned his name a lot for someone who says they aren't devastated). Like I have said above, for me it isn't about Iheanacho specifically, it is the worrying and inconsistent approach that we seem to take season after season.
Will this transfer window be any different to those we are used to, or will it be yet more disappointment and frustration with the board and Bilic himself? I really hope this summer is different, but I can't help but sense that the same familiar signs are there and it is going to be a tough window. I just want West Ham to sort out their transfer policy and ensure that everyone is working together towards the same target, something has got to change.

That's always assuming that Bilic did actually change his mind and didn't actually want Iheanacho in the first place. Could it be that our chairman is telling porkies to deflect blame for a striker that he never intended to sign and is about to join Leicester…
It's the same story! Absolutely pathetic!! Why not just come out and say we ain't got the funds to purchase these players!! It's embarrassing and we're becoming fed up with it all!! Add the buy back fee! He's too good a player to miss out on!!! When will we sign this "marquee" striker?? We need another playmaker to help lanzini and we need a decent right back and winger!! Stop loaning Burke and oxford out, drop fonte on his head and start letting the youth get their chance!! Let's be the "academy of football" again and show the world that our young players are not just wasted talents!!
I like how you talk about Bilic and the transfer policy. Mentioning Tore and Zaza, but no mention of the garbage players your mate Sully has brought in (Calleri, Mido, Petric etc).
David Sullivan?
Then he would resign surely willtell and tell the fans. It's making his position untenable surely. It's simple for me. Have a transfer meeting, ALL agree, write a list, decide on priorities and go in hard. Show intent, pay the extra 5 million. This is so damaging. Zab could have spent weeks persuading him, we kick Leicester into touch and they move on and we pull out? Unless we have a tevez moment on the cards I think this is a disgrace to be honest
Is this comment about Iheanacho being unproven really true.?. And if it was ,why were we tracking him for so long?. If he were "proven" his price tag would be considerably more.in any case. This situation looks bad from a fans point of view and looks like a breakdown if interclub communications.
Billic might have a point. Let's be honest, Silva, De Bruyne, Sane, Yaya Toure etc could set up/assist pub team strikers and make them look good

Looks like suave secret agent Bond is headed to India.
We recently reported that the temporarily-titled "Bond 23" was choosing between India and South Africa to serve as the film's primary location.
Potential shooting locations include the town of Navagam near Ahmedabad, the sandy beaches of Goa and the bustling cities of Delhi and Mumbai, according to The Times of India.
"Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol" and Ang Lee's "Life of Pi" are among the other big Hollywood films to recently shoot in the country.
"Bond 23" will again star Daniel Craig as the British agent James Bond 007. "American Beauty" helmer Sam Mendes, who collaborated with Craig on "Road to Perdition," is directing. MGM is aiming to release the film in late next year. 2012 also acts as the 50th anniversary of the Bond film franchise — the first film, "Dr. No," was released in 1962, with Sean Connery as 007.
Craig, who debuted as Bond in 2006's "Casino Royale," was most recently seen in "Cowboys and Aliens." He'll be seen in David Fincher's "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" this Christmas.
