Elegant-Chic is the best way I can describe this look :) I also love the simplicity of your makeup, I think it really compliments your outfit too. You also always have the best backgrounds for photos, are these just random places you venture to that day or do you plan this out ahead?
I love the outfit Valerie! I've been softening up for spring too. It's so bizarre because I didn't used to be this way but I guess it's the whole transitioning into maturity thing that's kicking in. I really enjoy your necklace and how it lays, it's very elegant!
SO SOPHISTICATED! The light make-up really suits you. I try to lighten my make-up but it doesn't work as well as I want it to because I cant seem to look "awake" with it on.
love this outfit <3

We can't get the delicious dairy products from Shatto Dairy at home. So we bring our cooler with us on trip's, so we can load it up with out of town goodie's. And the bonus to the milk is the awesome bottle's they come in with catchy phrases. I will actually go home and clean my fridge so these babies can be displayed as fun as they look! ( Hey whatever motivate's me to keep it tidy right?) I hope your having a great weekend!

Hughes, Kidder and Rounds, former members of longtime Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts mainstay Cartoon, are gearing up for their final Arts Fest appearance on Saturday.
Jon Rounds, Randy Hughes and Glenn Kidder performed publicly for the first time as Hughes, Kidder and Rounds at the 2015 Arts Fest. This Arts Fest marks the group's first performance at The State Theatre.
"I hope HKR will continue to collaborate, fight amongst ourselves about song arrangements and remain best buds," Rounds said. "We're getting weary of all the prep and travel involved in doing the Fest, though, so this will be our last."
Members of HKR were together for almost 35 years as three-quarters of Cartoon. Rounds said there's plenty of memorable stories from past Arts Fest. One involves harmonica virtuoso Richard Sleigh, who will perform with HKR at Saturday's show, at one of Cartoon's early reunion shows in the late '80s.
Rounds recalls several classic stories over the years, including one featuring harmonica player Richard Sleigh.
"Cartoon was playing to a big crowd on Old Main lawn. Sleigh was playing regularly with the band at that point," Rounds said. "As he kicked off one of the songs he sang, 'Old Cowhand,' we all started looking around at each other and checking where our capos were, because something was very wrong. Richard carries around a small suitcase with dozens of harmonicas in all different keys, and turns out he'd grabbed the wrong one. Without missing a beat, he swapped harps and — after a John Coltrane-like intro that had people scratching their heads — he nailed the first vocal line and we were saved."
HKR's sound draws from folk, bluegrass and country rock, Rounds said.
"People have said we remind them of Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and James Taylor because our home base is acoustic guitar and vocal harmony and our lyrics tell stories," Rounds said.
The band has been preparing for its final Arts Fest show.
"This will be HKR's third year at the Fest, and I expect we'll be that much tighter," Rounds said. "One of the reasons is that between the first show and the second, we recorded 'The Schoolhouse Project,' and also a single, 'Old Motorcycle.' The recording process forces you to rehearse like crazy, to play with the elements of the song until it feels right, and all this carries over to live performance."
"The Schoolhouse Project," which was recorded at the Rock Hill School in Linden Hall, was released in May 2016.
"We sold more 'Schoolhouse Project' CDs at last year's show than at any show in our 35-some years at the Fest," Rounds said. "We have about 200 left. They'll be available at the show and also online from CD Baby. 'Old Motorcycle' is only available from CD Baby."
While the band only plays out about once a year together, they are seemingly always making music.
"Randy continues to write and play solo gigs in Pinehurst, N.C., clubs and sits in with bands as a bass player," Rounds said. "Glenn has a band based in Covington, Va., that does his songs as well as those from Cartoon and HKR. I've been working on new songs with Terry Sweet, a 'Morningsong' bandmate of Randy's, and rehearsing for a Backseat Van Gogh reunion at the Phyrst in August."
For the Hughes, Kidder and Rounds, music is everything.
"Music? Nothing we've ever done means more to us," Rounds said. "Whenever we're in the same room, guitars come out and we get after it."
The longtime bandmates have found solace in a slower pace to life, and two members have even begun a foray into an entirely new creative endeavor.
"Randy teaches writing at Sandhills Community College," Rounds said. "Since retiring, Glenn and I have been writing fiction and searching for agents for our novels. We all continue to write songs."
The show requires an Arts Festival button for entrance.
- What: Hughes, Kidder and Rounds
- When: 8:30 p.m. Saturday

Let's draw a bottom line of another FRAPS research. Fourfold testing on each computer without processing results is too rough, and its measurement error may reach 10-15%, which is absolutely unacceptable! Even though the frame rate in many games is relatively stable and the graphs show similar peaks, the difference in the average FPS values is sometimes too big. It makes no sense to compare performance of graphics cards using such tests, as performance differences between some cards may sometimes be less than 10%. Even if you carry out 4-10 tests, you are careful with the test procedure, and you process results by discarding anomalous readings, you cannot be certain about the resulting figures.
To say nothing of the huge difference between the highest and the lowest FPS results. Games generate slightly different situations each time, you cannot get identical 3D scenes. For example, the frame rate in many racing games is affected by many things: changing weather, time of the day, traffic density (if it exists), changing behavior of computer players, skills of a player. Each time a tester is presented with a different situation, so the frame rate differs much as well. In this case the only solution is to run multiple tests and discard anomalous results.
What concerns modern first or third person shooters, the situation is even worse. It's even more difficult to repeat the original gaming situation there, each attempt to pass through a level brings something new. Enemies in modern games possess some AI, use complex behavior scripts, acting differently each time. So if testers use the above mentioned method of loading a saved game and going through a certain part of the level to measure performance, we can say for sure that it's impossible to do it several times in the same way, if the test is rather long.
Another solution is to turn around without going anywhere, or just read the instant FPS value right after loading a saved game. In this case the test will make some sense. But it will be much worse than sterling tests in games with convenient built-in benchmarks. However it's still better than nothing.
So here are the main conclusions that agree with the bottom line of the previous article. It's possible to benchmark graphics cards' performance in 3D games with FRAPS, but with the following reservations:
All the above-said makes FRAPS tests very time consuming. Add the lack of automation, except for limiting the test to a certain length, so these tests take even more time. Plus a significant error even in case of multiple repetitions of the tests, so credibility of this method of measuring 3D performance is too low for i3DSpeed.
Tests with FRAPS may contain too many tester's mistakes in games that does not allow to play demos. The spread of results may be too big, 9-10% is an unacceptable value. Of course, we can think of ways to soften the effect of a human factor and differences in game scenes. For example, in a racing game we can choose a circle (or even straight) track without traffic or contenders. In FPS games we can find a place without enemies and go in a straight line for a short time. But will such results reflect the real gaming? Such synthetic tests are no better than 3DMark.
We address game developers again to heed the word of people interested in 3D graphics and high-tech games. If modern games had convenient tools to benchmark performance, and could be automated at that, testers would have had much fewer problems. And this article wouldn't have been necessary.
What concerns our tests, we shall stick to applications with built-in benchmarks. The methods described in this article can be used with caution in single cases, repeating the tests many times and thoroughly verifying all results for validity. If you use such tests, you must publish a detailed test procedure.

"Now I know I've got a heart because it is breaking. - Tin Man" (L. Frank Baum, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz)
"For God so loved the World ..." this is how every Southern Baptists' boilerplate verse from the Bible; John 3:16, begins. What is not fully understood by all those evangelists is that God is not speaking of just the world of humans ... rather the Creator Almighty is speaking of all of creation of Earth, which might be fairer without the inclusion of humankind. It turns out, by all measurements of CO2 today, it is a big mistake to think otherwise.
The years should not gauze over how the world was conned into an awful conflict. To keep the water from rising we have to mandate a worldwide cut in Energy-related CO2 emissions by half by 2050 (compared with 2009) and continue to fall afterwards.
How Many Gigatons of CO2? | Information Is Beautiful:
'via Blog this'
It is MooPig Wisdom's hope that you dear reader will find some helpful information starting with the chart and LINKs, graphs, statistics and numerical predictions on CO2, included in today's post. In our own search for answers we find terrifying warnings, and abominable shortcomings by countries.
Will anything be done to curb our self-destruction -- anything that is humanly possible? Apparently only an act of God will make the earth long-term-inhabitable by all creatures, and, things big and small. Is it only a test of humans' resolve? Hard to say for sure.
Let's pretend that humankind takes a backseat in destroying all its natural resources, and actually puts the environment in the driver's seat. And let's give it a date to be transformed: let's go with August 29th, 2045. I will be 90 years old and still poor. But by then will the earth's oceans cover many shorelines that existed in 2013?
The only thing that can survive fifty or a hundred years is a sovereign, focused, linear derived family unit; one that can invest right now outside the given rules, today, and reap their benefit in 2100, in tomorrow's long term. That brings to mind Rothschilds and those like them. They seem to have all the luck when putting the brakes on things magnanimous. It would be a shame to lose all of the earth and everything in it.
Will robber barons be the ones who finally step up and clear the air? I am holding my breath.
That's our concerns for this hour from the Middle -- where the women are strong, the men are good looking, and the children are all above average.

23 October 2013, 9.30pm
Random phone call from Guan Ren
Guan Ren:"Heluuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Ei, come out now!"
ME: "HUH?" *as usual*
To my surprise, his metallic blue Satria was parked outside my house. He winded down the window, and handed me a brown paper bag.
Before he drove off, he told me, "Today is CHEAT DAY"
I opened the brown paper bag curiously, and found a white box imprinted with the words "AR"I squirmed.
Artisan Roast?
I opened the box slowly, being careful not to mess up the contents of the box.....and to my delight, a slice of cheesecake was sitting inside the box, on a cute lacey doily paper
The Artisan Cheesecake is made up of three layers, a crumbly digestive biscuit base, followed by a layer of chocolate and the fluffy cheesecake layer
What makes the cheesecake even amazing is the value in it. The effort Guan Ren put in to deliver the cake. Guan Ren was wearing his collared shirt he wore since morning when he delivered the cake to me. He rushed to deliver the cake to my house after he got back from Bangsar.
Thank you so much, Guan Ren.
Here is the place where Guan Ren got the cake:

WOW!!! Last Tuesday February 5th was a stormy day to say the least. We are very blessed to have little to no damage from the tornado. We could hear it coming and went to the hall, covered up with blankets and prayed till it was over. The tornado went through part of the field behind our house and through our neighbors yard two houses away. That's Close!!! There was A LOT-A LOT of damage done in our little town but when you talk to other people weather they lost homes or have damage to their homes they will tell you they are blessed or lucky(depending on who you talk to.) I say Amen to that. The Lord is so good to us and for that we are truley thankful. We went out the morning after the tornado and took some pictures. We almost didn't get back in to come back home because they had blocked all the roads but we took some backroads and got home and then stayed put once we got here. Here are just a few of the pictures I took. They can't begin to show all the damage done.
This is the Post office. The back of it was damaged, but the mail still ran the next day. I didn't expect them too but I guess tornados don't even stop the U.S. Mail people. No telling who's roof, or house parts this is........ Here is a shot of main street. You can see so far now....... How sad....... This is one of Brees friends house. This is the house next door to Brees friends house. Not much left here it looks like :( This is so sad.... I do hope they get the headstones back on the right graves. :( :( Here is the Baptist Church. It doesn't really look like it in the picture but they did get a LOT of damage, But they held church services in it yesterday!!!!!! That's encouraging and wonderful!!! Here is the Brass Door Motel......uuugh This is what is left of one house. This is a BIG tree on this house. If you look close you can see two men in it cutting away branches. If you don't live here or haven't been through here you would not believe all the cleaning that has been done by friends family and volunteers already. It is so amazing all the help that was sent to out little town. Again I say WE are BLESSED!!!

Join us for workshops in gifted education through the Belin-Blank Center and the UI College of Education over the next two months! We have FIVE new workshops this summer, and whether you are new to gifted education, working on your endorsement, or have been in the field for years, there is a workshop that is right for you.
You can find the complete schedule at http://www.education.uiowa.edu/html/belinblank/Programs/Educators/Courses/Schedule.aspx, and the online courses are listed first.
In brief, these are the June workshops in the Programming strand:
- On June 7 -8, we are offering Science for High-Ability Students. This workshop is particularly helpful for those who know that some of their students are especially interested in science. Perhaps your district doesn't have enriched or accelerated options in science, however, and you need ideas for things that the district CAN do to support these students in one of the central STEM areas! Those who take this workshop do NOT need to have a background in science; Lori Ihrig will be teaching this workshop and will ensure that you understand the issues in "science for high-ability students!"
- On June 18, 19, and 20, Dr. Kristine Milburn will offer Programming and Curriculum for High-Ability Students: Solving Real-World Problems. Designed to help you involve students in both problem FINDING and problem solving, using a variety of different strategies, this workshop helps you envision positioning your students as individuals who can take responsibility for the issues in their world!
- On June 21 – 22, Dr. Toni Szymanski will be offering one of our NEW workshops: Special Topics: Multiplayer Game Strategies for Teaching! You've probably noticed that your students can dedicate hours and hours to *games*; educators are learning to take advantage of what it is that motivates students to engage with games-and to apply those same strategies to learning. This is one of the hottest topics in education today, and Dr. Szymanski will help you understand the principles and "rules of the game" to take advantage of teaching through these innovative strategies.
- On June 25 – 26, we continue with one of the foundations of gifted education: Differentiated Instruction! Nancy Grimes will emphasize the needs of GIFTED learners in this exploration of differentiation. Although the concept came from the field of gifted education, too many presentations about differentiation have forgotten the needs of high-ability learners-and how to meet those needs. This is at the core of our "best practices" in gifted education.
- On June 27 – 28, Nancy Grimes will offer another of our NEW workshops this summer. It's hard to believe that we've not had this important workshop available in the past-but join us this summer for Special Topics: Curriculum Compacting. This comprehensive workshop will help you feel confident in implementing this essential strategy: determining WHAT learners already know and HOW to let them use their time to learn something NEW each day in your class!
You can find information about getting enrolled at http://www.education.uiowa.edu/html/belinblank/Programs/Educators/Courses/Register.aspx. All workshops are offered through our Center for Credit Programs, so you do NOT need to apply for admission to the University of Iowa. You may enroll for any of these workshops as either a graduate student ($440 per semester hour) OR as an undergraduate student ($280 per semester hour). Your transcript will reflect "undergraduate" status if that makes a difference to your school district.
Questions? Contact Dr. Laurie Croft.

"the Dignity of a Human Person" According to the Catholic Social Teaching
According to the Catholic Social Teaching
Latin dignitat-, dignitas, from dignus
the quality or state of being worthy, honored, or esteemed formal reserve or seriousness of manner, appearance, or language According to the Church:
All human beings, in as much as they are created in the image of God, have the dignity of a person. A. The unity of the person
"Man was created by God in unity of body and soul"
"The person, including the body, is completely entrusted to himself, and it is in the unity of body and soul that the person is the subject of his own moral acts" Man is obliged to regard his body as good and honorable since God has created it and will raise it up on the last day B. Openness to transcendence & uniqueness of the person
Openness to transcendence belongs to the human person: man is open to the infinite and to all created beings Openness to transcendence belongs to the human person: man is open to the infinite and to all created beings Unique and unrepeatable
Man exists as a unique and unrepeatable being; he exists as an "I" capable of self-understanding, self-possession and self-determination. Uniqueness of a man
Man is not created according to the image of God only. He is conveyed with different abilities: Consciousness
Abstract Thinking
Social Skills and Learning
Moral Judgment
Respect for human dignity
A just society can become a reality only when it is based on the respect of the transcendent dignity of the human person Authentic social changes are effective and lasting only to the extent that they are based on resolute changes in personal conduct. C. The Freedom of the Human Person
Man can turn to good only in freedom, which God has given to him as one of the highest signs of his image God has willed that man remain 'under the control of his own decisions The proper exercise of personal freedom requires specific...

During the week, the workload was pretty light, leaving a horrible workout of 70 minutes at CCM (15.5 kph) with a weighted backpack on Friday evening– in the end I cut it short by ten minutes and took the backpack off after 20 minutes – a three hour bike ride on Saturday and a tough "brick"on Sunday. All this while my parents were staying at home, which didn't make itany easier to spend so much time training. The brick consisted of 2 hours onthe bike at various intenstities, mostly hard ones, and an hour running between 13 and 15 kph. All this I did indoors (again). At least I am training theboredom factor (although I admit that I am now watching the new series by thecreator of The Wire, "Tremé" which helps).
I'm really having second thoughts about this Triathlon lark. Even "just" a Half Ironman means spending so much time and energy training. Its not particularly difficult to do the training but it is difficult to stay awake on a Sunday afternoon or keep in a good mood if my lunchtime gets delayed. Maybe I should start taking in cereal bars and gels while I train, something I haven't done since the days of 5 hour plus sessions from last year. I like tothink I am training my ability to derive energy from my fat stores (yes, I haveenough to go around). At the end of the brick on Sunday I started to fade big-time – for the last 15 minutes I had to go ever slower and slower just tokeep at a reasonable heart rate. Still, I suppose it all goes to a good cause.
It'll be interesting to see how I feel after the Half Ironman. Will I be energized by the experience or simply non-plussed?I think that I could do with a break from structured training, that's for sure-I'd like to be able to go out on rides with friends or run as hard or long as Ifeel like on a particular day. I don't feel that I need competition in order to motivate me to keep inshape any more. To be honest, the main reason I am doing a Triathlon is becauseI feel guilty about having spent so much money on a Triathlon bike! Maybe I canfind a Time Trial in the UK next year – after all, competing in Triathlons usually entails traveling with bike, so why complain about the dearth of time trials in Spain?

UPDATE: Rockport man arraigned in Massachusetts court, charged with four counts of murder
Story Location:
groton MassachusettsUnited States
AYER, MASS. – Orion Krause, 22, of Rockport, Maine, has been charged with four counts of murder following the Sept. 8 homicide in Groton, Massachusetts. Krause was arraigned Sept. 11 in Ayer District Court today. According to the Lowell Sun, Orion Krause is held without bail at Bridgewater State Hospital pending a competency evaluation.
Read update: Rockport man charged with slaying mother, grandparents, healthcare worker
An article in the Lowell Sun said his arraignment was brief, and that "He was arrested Friday after four people — an elderly couple and two middle-aged women – were found dead at a house at 80 Common St. in Groton. Officials have not yet released the victims' identities."
Additionally, the Lowell Sun said the police report from Sept. 8 has been impounded.
Identifying information about the victims continues to be withheld pending positive identification by the Office of the Medical Examiner, said the D.A.'s office.
"The investigation into this matter remains open and ongoing," said Kelly, Sept. 10.
Read more information from local Massachusetts media sources: The Boston Globe (Groton Quadruple Murder Appears To Be Case Of 'Tragic Family Violence' ) and Lowell Sun (Groton neighbor: "He said, "I murdered four people"').
On Sept. 9, the D.A.'s office issued the following news release:
"On September 8, 2017, at approximately 5:52 p.m., Groton Police responded to a report of a person in need of assistance on Common Street. Upon arrival, investigators gathered information which led them to a second residence on Common Street. There they located four deceased individuals; an elderly male and female as well as two middle-aged women. Three of the bodies were found inside of the house and one was found outside.
"The preliminary investigation suggests that the cause of death of all of the decedents was blunt force trauma. It is believed that all parties were known to each other and that this is a tragic incident of family violence.
"This is an open and ongoing investigation being conducted by the Middlesex District Attorney's Office, the Groton Police Department and Massachusetts State Police assigned to the Middlesex District Attorney's Office. No further information will be released pending official identification by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner and notification of next of kin.
"This does not appear to be a random incident and there is no present danger to the public."
This article will be updated as information becomes available.

I received some horrific news the other day, sadly it came via facebook. My newly turned 16-year-old son posted this on his wall for pretty much all the world to see, "Got my license! I'm street legal."
There is possibly nothing more that strikes terror in the heart of a mom than the proclamation that a license has been acquired by a brand new 16-year-old. Mom and Dad have now set themselves up for higher insurance rates, sitting up late waiting on nights out with buddies on the town, new found freedom and letting their "baby" go. Today's teen has another obstacle also, distracted driving, in particular, texting and driving. Let's face it, it's easy to be distracted by a foot long chili cheese dog, your favorite new tune blasting through your stereo or even your best friend in the back seat, but one of the most common driving distractions of today's teen is the cell phone and texting in particular.
Here is a gadget that even we just can't seem to live without, our connection to the outside world. Unfortunately, we never let ourselves become unplugged from this device even when in the driver's seat, sadly, maybe even more so for our teens. Did you know that reaction times to emergencies is reduced by 35% if you are reading or writing text messages? It has also been concluded that actually texting while driving is more dangerous than talking on the cell phone itself since you must take your eyes off the road for longer periods of time to text. The National Safety Council has concluded that approximately 28% of car crashes or 1.6 million accidents per year happen because of drivers texting while driving.
A study released this past summer by the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) showed that people who text while operating a motor vehicle have a 23 times greater risk of being in an accident. Furthermore, statistics have shown that drivers who drive while intoxicated have a four times greater risk of being in a motor vehicle accident. So basically, it's 6 times more dangerous to text and drive, than it is to drink and drive. (Not that anyone finds either acceptable behavior.)
Because of statistics like this, many states are reacting by banning texting while driving. 30 states, D.C. and Guam ban text messaging for all drivers. 11 of these laws were enacted in 2010 alone. An additional 8 states prohibit text messaging by new drivers.
Teens face another front, which has more influence over them than even the strictest parents or police officers, this is their peers. Remind your kids that when faced with the dilemma of riding with a texting friend, that they must stand up to them and make sure their friends know that texting while driving is not cool, and not acceptable behavior.
As a parent, it's important that not only do we set a good example for our kids by not texting ourselves while driving, but to have a frank discussion with our kids about the dangers of texting and driving. You can start with the statistics above and insure them that there are stiff penalties for texting and driving. Not just from the mom and dad, but also very likely by the state you live in.
You might also remind them that driving is a privilege, not a right and so are cell phones. Those privileges can all be removed at any given moment. no matter who foots the bill!
What do you do, to insure that your kids are not texting and driving? Your comment will benefit DoSomething.org with a $0.50 donation!

Amid a spate of high-profile mobile device releases (and forecasts that sales will drive a decided uptick in U.S. GDP growth), the Federal Communications Commission on Friday voted to proceed with incentive auctions aimed at shifting more airwave capacity to the urgent cause of expanding the mobile Internet to keep pace with the fast-growing demands of 300 million wireless Americans.
The U.S. leads the world in mobile adoption–especially when it comes to advanced devices and networks. We are home to the largest 3G and 4G populations on earth. A majority of Americans now own smartphones. A third of us also have an e-reader or video tablet. Will we stop there? Hardly. Analysts forecast that there will be nine connected devices for every American by 2016.
Currently, only 15% of available wireless airwaves–known as spectrum–supports all of this mobility we take for granted–and the rising tide of connected machines, from smart home appliances to personal health monitoring devices, on the way. Wireless companies are investing billions of dollars in state-of-the-art networks to support this growth. But they need more spectrum to break up a mounting mobile traffic jam that we're already starting to see in some dense metropolitan areas today.
While Washington focuses on policy and politics, Deloitte lays bare the economic and competitiveness stakes for our nation in an expansive new report on the "airwave overload." The report echoes the FCC's own warning that fast-rising demand for mobile Internet will soon overwhelm existing capacity. It focuses its call to action on Washington, urging a market-oriented spectrum policy built to support an expanding mobile economy.
The report makes clear that the U.S. leads the world in mobile innovation. Deloitte's Mobile Telecom Achievement Index compares 20 countries. Yardsticks include mobile penetration per capita, advanced device penetration, wireless data speeds, price per minute, capital investment and number of carriers competing in the marketplace. The U.S. comes out well ahead under this matrix.
Yet massive wireless expansions in Japan and Korea and the steady gains of China and India are rapidly narrowing the gap. "U.S. mobile broadband leadership depends on maintaining a robust and adaptable wireless infrastructure capable of offering new services and meeting growing demand" the report reads. "Continued U.S. leadership is not assured given current trends." Simply put, the slow-moving nature of the policy process is causing a shortage of spectrum in the pipeline, which impedes our ability to go toe-to-toe with our competitors.
For a generation, the hallmark of U.S. technology policy has been a 'light-touch' approach to innovation. More than ever, we need government leaders — backed by sound, data-driven decision-making and a healthy dose of regulatory humility– to apply this standard as well when it comes to our nation's spectrum policy.
We get there by starting at the end: What outcome most benefits mobile innovation–and its 300 million U.S. fans? A seamless continued growth of the wireless web, a sustained high-quality experience for consumers and innovators alike and the resulting substantial economic, jobs and revenue growth.
Getting there is the trick. Twenty-plus years into our nation's climb to global tech greatness, Deloitte identifies the core 'lessons learned,' warning that the FCC should "avoid specific, prescriptive formulations that may be based on assumptions that are overtaken by events" and instead "favor policies that leave to markets the task of determining how best to capitalize on opportunities and resolve challenges related to mobile broadband."
The blunt translation of this polite assessment? Government has a checkered past when it seeks to shape markets defined by fast-moving innovation and growth. Let the innovators innovate. Let companies compete. Let consumers decide. And, if policymakers exercise restraint, then the U.S. will continue to lead.
Just like the networks they support, there is a 'need for speed' in Washington. Timely action. Transparent work. And, straightforward, market-driven rules that ensure spectrum follows consumers, not regulators, will help unleash the next wave of U.S. innovation. Here's hoping we continue the momentum and sense of urgency from the FCC's initiative. In doing so, we advance not only sound spectrum policy but bold economic growth policy in a connected and mobile age.

Sydney Swans v GIANTS
Saturday, April 22, 2017
SCG, 3.45pm
A big battle this week as Sydney Swans and the GIANTS go head-to-head in a rematch of last year's epic NEAFL Grand Final. A bye for the Swans last week will have them refreshed, as the GIANTS are coming off a 16-point loss to Canberra at Alan Ray Oval. Although both sides will look significantly different than they last time they met, there is plenty on the line with the Swans and GIANTS winning one match each so far this season. With Sydney set to field 16 AFL-listed players and the GIANTS just 11, it will be a battle of the young guns as the club's academy prospects will look to make their mark and play a big role in getting their side over the line.
Grand Final, 2016: GIANTS 11.16 (82) d Sydney Swans 11.12 (78) BISP
Round 17, 2016: GIANTS 10.8 (68) d Sydney Swans 4.19 (43) SCG
Round 11, 2016 GIANTS 16.13 (109) d Sydney Swans 16.12 (108) Spotless Stadium
1. A tough loss to only second-season team Canberra Demons saw the GIANTS also lose key backline player Harry Himmelberg, however NEAFL Development Award winner Jeremy Finlayson is set to make a return to the side after his suspension. Finlayson's left foot boot and quick feet could be a problem for the Swan's midfielders as he is known to chase down players with an open space. Watch out James Rose and Brandon Jack!
2. This will be a classic eight-point game between the two best sides of last season. They've only won one match each to sit in fifth and eighth position on the ladder. The GIANTS could re-enter the top six with victory, and the Swans could drop out if they lose. One thing is for certain, the recent history between the two sides means anything could happen at the SCG on Saturday.
3. Plenty of AFL-listed players will be keen to bounce back to form in the NEAFL this week. Aliir Aliir, Nic Newman and prized draftee Oliver Florent were omitted from Sydney's AFL line-up this week, while Finlayson and Daniel Lloyd are among those looking to impress for the GIANTS.
Sydney Academy prospect Jake Brown will play his first match of the NEAFL season this week after featuring in the AFL Academy Series. A former AFL Sydney Rising Star nominee and Under-18 Allies representative last year, Brown was unlucky to miss out on AFL Draft selection, but enters 2017 as one of the northern states' brightest young talents.
Sydney and the GIANTS are perfectly poised at a win-loss record of 11-11 coming into this week. But their history tells a see-sawing tale of NSW's biggest rivalry. For the first three years of the NEAFL, Sydney won the win-loss record 8-2. For the next three, the GIANTS have won 9-3. Who will draw first blood in 2017?

Crazy AARP Commercial Talks About Marial Law and some Sort of Outbreak!
This is no joke. I don't know what is going on with this, but it is really creepy. You can hear on the news broadcast in the background. They are telling everyone to remain calm. What do you think about this. Is it subconsious programming? Are they preparing us for martial law. Have you heard of Jade Helm, and all of the Walmarts closing? This is getting really weird. Check out this video for proof.

In the Allentown, PA area the heat wave was partially relieved on Saturday. The temperature came down but the humidity was still high until Sunday afternoon. On Monday it was way better. But my air conditioner has still be on continually for about two weeks now, maybe longer. I've had summers here when the air conditioner was on continually for 6 weeks, and others where it was on every day, but it cooled down enough at night that I turned it off and was able to open windows and doors to air out the house. It looks like this Summer is going to be one of the hot ones.
I've been quilting. I'm making a small quilt without a pattern of any kind. There was a picture in a book, but I'm not really even using the "recipe" in that book. It is all improvisational. I've got one of the two panels finished. The second one should be easier than the first was because most of the pieces are already put together. But I need to do some thinking before I do anything else. So I'm here, blogging. No pictures yet. I have to get just a bit further along before I can do that.

For some time now, I have felt that I wasn't quite getting everything done. An art lesson skipped here, a science lesson skipped there. It seemed that we could barely get the basics done, which for us is just math and spelling. And I also feel a lot of guilt for letting piano lessons go.
Well, one morning over breakfast, I pulled out my math manual to look over the lesson for that day. Grasshopper says to me, "Let's do math now!" My gut told me to say, "No." After all, we hadn't even had our devotional yet, which is supposed to set the tone for the rest of the day. But Grasshopper persisted, and I relented--just this once. But then we got math done before we finished breakfast, and we were still able to start school around the same time--only with one subject already tackled.
I started to think about all time that we spend on meals. With littles, they are eating five times per day. And they are soooooooo slow! So I figure that is at least 4 hours per day minimum on cooking and eating. No wonder we had trouble getting things done! So now we are doing math every day at breakfast, and the devotional from the previous day is just going to have to cover it. And I am now adding in some read-alouds during meal and snack times. I have been doing this for a couple of weeks now, and I can't believe how much we are getting done!
And it took me almost two full years of homeschooling to figure it out.

By Peter Verweij
This reading looks at newsroom convergence in South Africa. It takes the case-study approach, looking at Die Burger and The Sunday Times newspapers. Verwejj describes Quinns theories on newsroom convergence, and then says how well the 2 newspapers are practically implementing the theory. The Times newsroom is conducive to multimedia convergence in that it recognises the importance of teamwork, but Die Burger does a better job of practically applying Quinns theory on newsroom convergence.

Hi all,
Last month, I had the pleasure of presenting a workshop at the American Society for Engineering Education's annual conference. My workshop was sponsored by the Engineering Libraries Division and I thank them for inviting me to present.
Rather than give them a deck of slides to upload to the conference site, I created a separate document, based on my slides, but including additional information and resources. I used the "Notes Pages" format in PowerPoint, then converted it to PDF for ease-of-use. (In addition to being an example of good handout practice, if you've never been to one of my workshops, this will give you a good introduction to the three rules for better presentations.)
This is the kind of handout you want to give to your audience or make available to them after your presentation. Something that your audience members can read and study and ponder at their own pace.
Now, go forth and make good handouts!

One Track Mind: Lovecraft in Brooklyn
Artist: Mountain Goats
Album: Heretic Pride
Whither H.P. Lovecraft? He of the overwrought, modern classical horror narratives, purveyor of all things "squamous" and "rugose?" He seems to be enjoying a minor renaissance among the net's intelligentsia, despite his bizarre proclivities towards eugenics and other outright violations of political correctness. Taste-makers from BoingBoing to MeFi peddle Cthulhu-themed tea-cozies and other mind-boggling, long-tail elements of niche hipster consumerism gone awry. Modern auteurs such as Mike Mignola and Guillermo del Toro borrow liberally from the fertile, feotid soil of ol' Howard Phillips' imagination, with admittedly entertaining results.
None of this excuses the truly execrecable aspects of Lovecraft's actual oeuvre, from his gender theories to his prose. And yet, despite his horribility, Lovecraft's stock continues to rise among present-day interwebbers. I can't explain it.
Now, something exists that might excuse these aspects of Lovecraft, and that is this song by the Mountain Goats.
H.P. Lovecraft, you can keep doing whatever it is you do, so long as you continue to posthumously inspire rock and roll such as this.
P.S. I like the double entendre of the song's rallying cry: "I feel like Lovecraft in Brooklyn." At first listen, I did not think of Lovecraft the Proper Noun, but rather "lovecraft" the possible neologism in the vein of "statecraft" or "songcraft." I feel like lovecraft in Brooklyn indeed.

I have nothing to say about the mountain goats. (I should give that album another shot; I was far, far, too angry at the world to tolerate it the first time I tried it.) But on Lovecraft, I can say that though I'm a fan of the mythos - dude basically popularized the horror genre - I agree his writing's execrable. He's as unreadable as Verne, as Asimov, as Heinlein. But his ideas! Things Man Was Not Meant To Know. Terrible Geometries. Nightmares From Beyond Time. Magic as a dangerous, barely controllable undertaking.
I get a thrill I don't fully understand from the ideas. If I had to give a post-hoc rationalization for it, I'd make an analogy between what I do for a living (and for fun), abstract-system manipulation in an environment that values specialized skill and knowledge, and what HPL's characters are about. The other analogy I'd make would be to children and dinosaurs: they're enormous, scary, violent, dangerous, and
because they've been dead for millions of years.
- Pharaohmagnetic said...
That's a very good point. I can't believe I forgot to name-drop Stross and the mind-blowing awesomeness of imagination that underlies the Atrocity Archives. Lovecraft deserves at least part of that credit.
You blogged about this before, before, too.
Anyway, I admit that this is the wrong song to hear when you're angry at the world. But, if you're feeling alienated, unmoored, and far-from-the-home-that-no-longer-exists, much as Lovecraft felt when he was living in Brooklyn rather than his native Providence, then this is the song for you. All the more so if you fear the unspeakable entities from beyond the stars that will one day return to a cursed Earth and swallow our souls.

Hmmmm... didn't know that he had odd political views. I guess weirdness generally has no bounds... Nice prose, BTW :)

The raw food craze is both awesome and I definitely believe that raw food should be a significant part of our diet. The live enzymes and unprocessed fibers allow our body to get to work! which is what is was made to do. By cooking all of our food (an unnecessary process for so many types) we are actually making more work for ourselves and robbing our bodies of essential vitamins and minerals that are destroyed by various cooking processes. I am not a full raw vegan and I don't ever plan to be however, food needs to be appreciated for its natural state and consumed in this manner to reap its full benefit.
The first part we have to get over are the texture changes. Just as many things follow suit, different isn't bad, its just different. Different soon changes to familiar and awesome after hanging out with different for a while. Different is a cool guy, he's interesting mysterious and soon becomes your best friend. Embrace the various textures food takes on when it is in its raw form. yes cooking food provides great taste (I do not disagree).
Not trying food in its raw form is kinda like falling in love with someone and never meeting their parents. (some might be totally cool with this) You don't always know who someone is until you learn about where they come from.
Time spent on organic farms taught me to eat straight from the ground if I can. Obviously we get caught up in many things and methods and comforts but when we are conscious and aware of it, give raw food a try. Skip the oven and stove and go straight to the plate from the cutting board.
Sweet Potato Chips and Artichoke Tapenade
Serves 1
one large sweet potato. Wash it (little scrubber helps) and cut that baby right up into little potato chip like discs.... thats it. People we have raw sweet potato chips.
I cut up some artichoke hearts and mixed them with olive oil salt, pepper and lime juice. Food processor would be great for this.
So good for snacking and insanely filling.

I used design A from Becky Higgins and a 9x9 square page from We R Memory Keepers for Project Life Week 4. I love the square page... it's the perfect size for Instagrams.
This phrase is from a 12x12 sheet. I added a little frame from Michael's Creative Chaos line.

After a leisurely morning of playing with dogs, walking in the glorious green grass of Paris, KY, visiting Quillin Leather and Tack shop, Donna and I made our way to the horse park (gawking as we went at the incredible Horse Farms along the way). I never tire of admiring the well-tended grounds, the immaculate black fences, the stately barns, and the rolling green pastures of the Kentucky horse farms around Paris Pike and Iron Works road en route to the Kentucky Horse Park.
We made it in plenty of time to wander around the various outdoor marketplaces, find our spot in the Equestrian tent (a step up from the last few years, to be sure!), and to mosey in and out of the merchants in the covered arena before trudging up to the trot up at 3:00.
When Nigel Casserley announced that "Rolex time is now 2:58, two minutes before the first horse inspection" I knew I'd arrived. There's nothing like hearing that strong British voice over the loudspeaker telling us what time it is. The stands were packed with folks who love the sport, the horses, and their riders. I sat next to a very nice gentleman, a vet from Pennsylvania Peter Blaner, who was as amiable was he was knowledgeable. He had first hand knowledge of several of the horses and riders from the Pennsylvania area, and I enjoyed sitting next to him.
The first rider to present her horse was Polly Stockton, wearing pink. Her horse, Charles Owen Tangleman, was lovely and while she had a bit of a time keeping him together, she passed with flying colors.
Karen presented both Teddy and Hugh Knows (a former Texan, I believe). and Teddy was a handful. Talk about a horse who's full of himself! Both passed without a problem.
Philip Dutton was a cool customer in his shades (though it WAS a bright, beautiful day), and both of his horses (Woodburn and Connaught). I can't wait to see Connaught in the dressage ring; he ought to do well.
Julia Steinburg seemed to be about a week early, in her yellow taffita dress and Derby hat, but she and her horse Mr. Big (who's only 15 hands tall--one of the smaller horses presented at this year's Rolex, which to Teddy must seem to be the Land of the Giants) made a fine showing.
Hawley Bennett from Canada and her lovely horse Linvingstone made a fine showing--another woman "pretty in pink", the Canadian opted for bright shocking pink for her trot up.
Can I say how INCREDIBLE Becky Holder and Courageous Comet looked? Both looked fit as a fiddle. Becky has lost weight, and I think she's the one I'll be cheering for this year. GO BECKY!
One totally uninformed observation: I want to feed Blair King something--the woman looked absolutely starved.
Two sad notes: Amy Tryon and Poggio II never presented, and While Will Faudree and Antigua presented once (and were held), the pair voluntarily withdrew. I'm sad; I would have loved to see the big bay do one last Rolex before he retired. I don't know about Poggio, but I think Antigua had an abscess. What a trooper!
There's something about starting Rolex with the first trot up. The horses are in amazing shape, the riders look ready to go, and I know this year will be a great one!
Until tomorrow.....

I have been an indie author of adult and children's ebooks since November 2011, have published eleven short ebooks/stories, and in that time I have realised that the best way to be found as an author is discoverability. There are lots of ways in the wonderful world of the internet to be discovered, but here are my top ten tips.
- Create a series. Readers like to return to characters they've already read. My 'Guardian Angels' YA set is a series. I remember reading series as a child. First it was Mr Men then Noddy, graduating to Famous Five, Secret Seven, Nancy Drew and Mallory Towers. I loved reading what each set of characters did time after time. Didn't you? I think that's what influenced me as an adult to write series for both adults and children. As an adult avid reader, I still like reading novels by the same author, especially characters who live in the same town.
- Make the first ebook in a series perma-free (free for-ever). My bestseller, The Railway Angel, is perma-free. I initially priced it at 0.99c but only a few sold, so after a couple of weeks, I made it free and the downloads went up and up. Within a week, the downloads went from tens to thousands. I think that readers who have read my first Angel ebook, have liked it, have seen that I have more out in the series or other ebooks to read, and perhaps have downloaded or bought the rest of that series and my other ebooks.
- Write, write and write. I always have a writing project on the go. I have read on websites and in magazines that the way to being discovered is to write more books, and the more I have out there, the more I will be found by readers. So, I have three series going, and one set of three. I also write in more than one genre to widen my appeal to readers. I write for middle-grade (9-12 year-olds), young adults and adults, so I can have two to three sets of readers.
- I have each ebook on all the digital platforms. I know that some authors have had more luck with just putting their ebooks on Amazon and nowhere else, but I have mine on all the platforms, and have got downloads and sales on most of them. I have earned more from Smashwords than I have Amazon so far. I also believe that not everyone, especially children, own a Kindle. I think that some children (I know that my two teenage nephews have an iPad) own other ereading devices such as the Kobo or the Hudl by Tescos. I believe that having ebooks across all digital platforms, I will reach a far wider audience of readers.
- Social media. I belong to Facebook, Twitter, Google+, LinkedIn and Pinterest. The etiquette is not to post/tweet too much about your book. I have read that lots of authors do not like other writers bombarding them with posts/tweets saying 'Buy my book.' I usually only post when I have a new ebook out, and then I spread my news a little bit each day and post to different Facebook groups, tweets and email various writing groups I belong to. When I do post/tweet, I usually post about how much I've written on a story or what the main character in my work is up to at the point I've reached. A good site to use is PInterest, although mainly women use it. I find it useful because it is a visual tool for writing and promoting my books. I have boards with my book covers, people, places and things connected to my ebooks, and quotes that my characters might say in the books. I don't know if other people who have liked my pins, repinned the picture onto their own boards, have liked my photos enough to buy or download my ebooks mentioned in the pins.
- I belong to online groups, and organisations in genres that I write in. I'm a member of the Romantic Novelists' Association (RNA). When I've emailed their Yahoo email group with promotion for a new ebook, one of the members has asked if she can have a tweet so she can tweet on Twitter for me, which she has done. I believe this is how I got into the Top 20 and 40 of two bestseller reads for free ereads. I belong to two online groups: internet marketers and Alliance of Independent Authors (ALLi). Most of the people in the internet marketing group live in the US, so when my coach, Rebecca Woodhead, posted in all the Facebook groups we are in about me finding out being an Amazon bestseller, it created a huge buzz, and the members picked it up, shared it, commented on it and tweeted on it, and more importantly, downloaded it. It went up the list.
A week later, it was on the members' showcase bulletin of ALLi, which is based in the UK. That made it rocket up the UK list to the Top 20, which it hadn't been the week before. Also, back in April 2014, I did a library talk and updated my Facebook status, saying that I had done the talk and thought it was successful. ALLi's blog organiser asked if I could blog for them. I said yes. A couple of weeks later, it went up on the blog. I got two sales for that as well as a 4 star review and exposure for my ebook.
So, being part of organisations and Facebook groups, mentioning my ebook, has created a buzz, and shot up the number of downloads for my ebook.
- Talks. I started to give talks and workshops in my local libraries to both adults and children this year. I believe it is a good way to reach my readers directly. Last December I participated in one of my library's Christmas fayres. The main librarian mentioned at the time about doing more events. When we met in the New Year to discuss me doing further events, the librarian suggested doing talks about publishing ebooks, knowing I had experience doing this. I agreed. This got me thinking about what I had learnt on my way to being an indie author. My first talk was called 'Five Steps to Publishing an Ebook'. At the end of that talk, the librarian suggested doing a follow-up talk. Again, I thought about what I had learnt and could share about publishing ebooks. I also write fillers, and having done one talk about this which I remembered was successful, I thought I could do this again at this library. It is now booked for October this year. This can be another reason why it's good to write in different genres. I write for adults and children, and have done talks for adults and workshops with children.
- Print on Demand (POD). Amazon have their own POD branch called Create Space. I understand that they have an easy guide on how to use it and how to create a cover for it. I haven't used it yet because I want to write and not waste time learning how to do this. So what I do is upload my Word document of the novel onto a website called Draft2Digital, who then upload it to Create Space for me. I have more time to write the next ebook then. I find having print versions of a couple of my ebooks is a good idea, especially when I have talks and workshops planned. I have sold a few copies of my POD versions at my talks this way, and plan to do the same at the children's workshop.
- Email lists. It has been said a good way to reach readers is to grow an email list. There are a few sites that you can use to set up emails to go to people automatically. The ones I know most about are Aweber Communications (which I use) and Mailchimp. I have read that a good way to reach readers is to put a message in the back pages of your ebook. I have started to do this. I write something like this:
Dear Reader
Thank you for reading my ebook. If you would like to receive news about future ebooks, why not sign up to my newsletter. You can do this by emailing me at…"
A second suggestion, which I also do, is to ask people to sign up at talks I give. I have handed out slips to my audience to complete and return to me at the end of the talk. Next time, I might mention it at the start of the talk, saying if you want full details of the talk or more, then email me at (the list name). The first idea I got from fellow romance author, Julie Cohen, and the latter idea from Rebecca Woodhead.
- Last but not least, as an author I think it is essential that you have a website and maybe a blog, too. The website can showcase all of your work. Mine has all my ebooks on as well as some of my non-fiction successes and what events I give. Having a blog is also a good idea. When I began blogging, I posted about what I write, places, people and things connected to my books. It evolved to being about writing as well as my passions for green and healthy living, to now blogging about my writing life, living with Asperger's Syndrome and travelling with food intolerances. When I blog, I promote the link on the social media sites, trying to do it throughout the day.
So those are my top ten ways to get discovered as an author, especially as an indie author of ebooks.
Good luck.

Battleground is a serious war game that will challenge you at every step, from army design and deployment to tactical maneuvers and command decisions until battle's end.

Disclaimer: I received this product for testing purposes and in exchange for my honest review complimentary of CapriClear. All thoughts and opinions are my 100% honest and unbiased thoughts and opinions!
CapriClear is a breakthrough skin care MUST HAVE!
CapriClear Spray On Moisturizer is an innovative over-the-counter treatment that combats flaky, irritated, dry skin. This moisturizer was designed by a dermatologist. Its a pure, gentle, and EFFECTIVE solution for even the most sensitive skin. All natural and 100% fractionated coconut oil.
This moisturizer is hypoallergenic, colorless, and odorless. It is free of preservatives, additives, dyes, sulfates, paraben, and PABA. It is also Gluten FREE! This moisturizer is safe on babies, kids, and adults. It is also proven to relieve the itch and dryness associated with eczema and atopic dermatitis. This product is also made in the U.S.
My family loves this product. My 3 year old gets this moisturizer put on after every bath. She also gets it put on if I notice dryness to her skin during the day. However, since she has started using this I have not noticed any dry patches on her throughout the day.
I use this product every day when I get out of the shower. I instantly feel the hydration in my skin. You don't have to use a lot either, Just a pump of the bottle gives you enough spray to use on more then one area of your body. This lasts the entire day for me. I even go to bed still feeling the hydration and softness. Since receiving this product, I have not used any other moisturizer on my body.
This moisturizer really proved itself with my 8 year old daughter. She has psoriasis. We have tried many prescription creams and lotions as well as over-the-counter creams and lotions. They either did not work or only worked for a short period of time and stopped. Since starting CapriClear Spray On Moisturizer we have noticed a GREAT improvement in her psoriasis. Her skin is not so flaky and white as it was before trying this product. It also has not been itching her like it use to. We use it two times a day on her, once in the morning and again after her bath before bed. The psoriasis in certain areas have disappeared and her natural skin is now visible. Which she has had psoriasis since the age of 4 and this is a HUGE improvement for us!
This product gets a 5/5 MUST HAVE from our family!

I am sitting in a dark room. The fan is blowing in the cool Florida air and the Hillsong baby track is playing as the two most precious things to me lay sleeping. I am filled with so many different emotions (okay all the time, pretty much), but tonight again I sit emotion-ful.
We have been learning about Abraham and his faith to go wherever God wanted him to go, and to do whatever God wanted him to do, and not just that but to do it HONORING GOD. I have been praying tonight about different circumstances that surround my little family and wondering at times what exactly we are to be doing. Are we doing everything that God is asking us? Are we doing it the right way? Are we missing something? Even in the midst of confusion though, I have not felt alone. I know God is here. I am just not quite sure what it is that he is doing.
In times like these, it is hard for me to know what kind of faith I should have. Should I have the faith that says I believe, so therefore it will happen? Should I have the faith that says okay God, whatever you want? Or should I have the faith that just is not even expecting that anything should even happen? Of course in a perfect world all of these would fit together in a very organized way. But tonight, I am not exactly sure. I know this for sure, God has not forgotten me. Even when I think He has, time after time he has shown Himself to Tim and I in a very real way.
When Cobe was first born, we had just moved to Douglasville, GA. We were away from our family, away from our security and we hardly knew anyone. Not only that, but we had moved to take a job that we felt God called us to, but I am not going to lie, we had moments when we did not know how we were going to make it. One day I called Tim in near tears asking him how we were going to afford groceries. He always assured me God would take care of it. Have faith. Not even two hours went by and Tim called back saying "You are never going to believe this, someone walked in and handed me a 500 dollar check and told me God told them to bring this to us!". FIVE HUNDRED was enough for groceries for 3 paychecks for us! Stories like that happened many times. God always has taken care of us, and He continues. Time after time I am reminded of his love for me and my family.
So here I am. Sitting in this dark room, with my children sleeping. Wondering what this month has to hold…knowing that it HAS to hold alot, but not really knowing how all can be accomplished. Then I hear the song by Hillsong United, All I need is You. And as the tune rings out to
"You hold the Universe, You Hold everyone on earth…All I need is You Lord, All I need is you…"
I am reminded that there is nothing more that we need than Him. If we lost everything, a place to live, security, money, WHATEVER, that God, my God is all I need. Is that enough for me? Can I not only rest in faith but also honor Him through all obstacles? I am not perfect (I know I know, this may come as a shock to many), but I want to have this faith, and therefore I will choose to know that I am where I am to be. Nothing more, nothing less.

As we bring down the curtain on the TLM 1010 Technical Communications module, a lot of things has happened in a very short 20hour course module. Looking back reflecting on this module, I have discovered that I have so much more room for improvement in the aspects of technical communication. Having scored A's during my polytechnic days for communication modules or any sorts of presentation, I went in being overconfident of my own skills always thinking how it was going to be an easy 'A' for the module. But to my surprise, things were not as easy as compared to polytechnic, report writing, APA style referencing, product summaries were things that I have never touched on and always thought when the time came it would come innately.
From the very first assignment right till this very reflection assignment, I have learnt many valuable lessons and skills, from something as simple as writing a formal self-introduction e-mail to something as complicated as writing a persuasive product design proposal report but it was from the very first assignment onwards that I realize that I needed to put in a lot more effort.
Throughout the course module, working with different people was the one of the factors that kept the lessons spontaneous. By constantly switching groups, not only did we to learn how to adapt to each other while maintaining quality work, we also got to know each other better as classmates and the insights each of us have from our diverse background. We learnt about our strengths and weaknesses and compensated each other and I have better understood what working style suited me better.
The most challenging assignment would undoubtedly be the report writing. Report writing has always been my Achilles heel as I constantly have issues trying to comprehend it, but thankfully I had amazing teammates Sheryl and Wei Sheng who guided and brought me through this trial. Yet through the very same assignment there was the presentation where I breath a sign of relief as there was finally something of my forte. Coming from a performing arts background, every single presentation is always like a performance to me, a place to enthrall the audience while bringing a point across in a spectacular way. It was the place where I could compensate for my lackluster report writing skills.
Looking back as we draw a close to the module, I have realized that I have learnt in 20 hours more than any other communications module I have taken during my polytechnic days. As humans, communication is a necessity and I am sure that everything that I have learnt in this module will be put to good use in future and overall, I have thoroughly enjoyed my time taking this module.

These charges are in addition to similar charges filed in Nevada earlier this week.
As in the earlier charges, ACORN itself is denying any wrongdoing even though authorities are indicating that "hundreds of" voter "registrants were indeed fraudulent," according to District Attorney Stephen Zappalla.
