It's Okay To Have Feelings, Express Yourself.
When was the last time you expressed your feelings? When was the last time that you opened your heart to someone? Or even yourself? Allowing yourself to be fully vulnerable and letting your feelings and emotions flow out?
Expressing yourself has very powerful benefits – the problem is, most people don't allow themselves to do it because of fear of rejection and judgement. They keep their feelings and emotions hidden, they try to fight through it in solitude or through distracting activities to avoid it all together.
Of course there are many types of feelings and emotions we all feel, all of which have their very own beauty to them. Nothing should be suppressed, everything should be felt as fully as possible. Joy, sadness, anger, whatever it may be, feel it fully then let it go.
The only reason our feelings can become overwhelming is because of our suppression and our need to distract ourselves from them all with things such as consumerism, alcohol, processed foods, sex and many other addicting activities.
In this article I want to talk about feelings which can have negative effects on our lives, such as unhappiness, anxiety and feelings of unworthiness etc…
These are all feelings that we as people try very hard to avoid and suppress, we don't realise by suppressing these feelings we are just making them stronger, you can push them down as far as you like. But they will be back, and they will come back stronger than ever.
Pain avoidance is a common thing to see – you only have to go to your local town to see it, the man sitting on the side of the road with a can of beer, asking for money for his next fix.. It's all from the pain he feels and the pain avoidance that goes with it, he is unhappy with himself and his life.
He constantly needs drink and drugs to push those feelings down. The anxiety he feels after waking up must be incredibly intense, the call for alcohol will be his first thoughts of the day as all those feelings come rushing back into his reality.
The homeless are an extreme example of people who avoid expressing their emotions and feelings. But you can see it everywhere – the fake smiles with sadness in their eyes, the anger and attitudes of teenagers in the streets, the bravados of egotistical people pretending they aren't insecure and scared, the "confident" people who are actually nervous inside and try so hard to not let it show. The socially anxious who turn to binge drinking to feel comfortable socializing on a saturday night…
Nothing is wrong with feeling anything seen as "negative", being nervous is fine, feeling sad is fine, feeling anxious or angry is fine. But these are all things we avoid feeling or of course fear expressing.
In these situations being vulnerable and expressing these feelings has so much power, the moment you voice how you are feeling, the tension begins to loosen, you begin to realise it's ok to feel what it is you feel, it's out there now and no one is judging you for it.
If you allow yourself to feel fully, and express it to the world. You can then begin to understand what is causing these feelings. Once understood, they can then be worked through.
Of course it's not easy to open yourself, to feel naked and vulnerable and to allow yourself to feel emotions fully. But it's all a growing experience. Each time you do this, you become a stronger person, you trust yourself more, you will grow day by day.
Expressing yourself to others builds strong bonds, trust grows, and love grows. Whether it's someone you have just met or the love of your life, the power of vulnerability will peel away your layers as you grow more and more comfortable with your life and yourself.
It's simple, we can all do it. Is it easy? Well no. But all you need is the courage to do it anyway.

As the week comes to a close I am both anxious and excited. I feel as though I have learned an incredible amount of information in a short amount of time. The resources and technologies we have been introduced to and discussed in this course has given me a large "to do" list for my summer "vacation!"
The best resource for me has been the introduction of blogging. When we first started module one I was absolutely terrified of starting a blog. WordPress, and this course have made getting started a lot easier than I originally thought. After the completion of this course, I plan on keeping up my WordPress blog. I plan on changing a few things, including the focus of the content, so that I can gear it toward my 6th grade students and parents. I have reflected on a lot of ways to integrate the blog into my class. I plan on linking it to the school website next year. I'll post long-term assignment due dates, HW schedules, instruction for my word study and vocabulary assignments, the link to my Goodreads shelf where I can share my favorite titles for students, links to websites for the MSA, links to educational websites, and an announcements area to share news about what my students are learning about in LA. I hope that this will have a positive impact on my digital footprint as well.
Our reading and discussion about Copy Right will have a large impact on the way I conduct my class, and the way I will do my future job. In the past, I have been in violation of the Fair Use policy regarding the amount of pages I have photocopied from anthologies, and in the use of images from the Internet in my PPs. I will be more cognizant of this especially since I plan on being a school media specialist/librarian. In our building the media specialists delivers the in-service at the start of the year of Copy Right, and is the "go to" person for any question regarding Copy Right. So needless to say, I have kept all of the resources from this class, as a future reference!
Module two introduced me to Screencastomatic.com. This is an incredible tool that I am looking forward to using in more depth next year. I plan on linking several screencasts to my blog. The first one will be a step-by-step tutorial on how to access grades on the on-line grade book, Pinnacle. I teach 6th grade, so this is the first time that the students have used Pinnacle, and they always have a lot of questions at the start of the year. Also- there a lot of additional features on the program that I think a lot of parents would take advantage of, if they knew about them. My plan is to introduce the students to my blog and then explore the features, including the screencasts, so that they can access the information with parents from home. We also have a back to school night-so I think that would be a great time to share the blog and all of the links available to parents.
Module two also introduced me to the multiple ways Skype can be used in the 21st century classroom. Although many family members and friends have been using Skype for years, I had yet to get on board. Now I love it! mY daughter is talking to ger grandparents in Florida and my colleagues and I are using it to share thoughts and ask questions about our current course work! Next year, I really want to try to get one of the authors my students read to do a live interview via Skype in my classroom next year. I am thinking that one of the authors we have paid to visit us in the past might be my best bet. So, I'm starting by appealing to Priscilla Cummings. Her book, The Red Kayak, is always a favorite of students. I think she would be a wonderful candidate for in interview because she is a Maryland resident, and in the same time zone as us. A draw back to conducting interviews and discussions with professionals in other parts of the world! I think an interview would be an engaging and fun way to end of book club discussion of the novel.
Module three got me excited about the possibilities of using Google Forms in my class. One of the ways we discussed integrating this technology into the classroom was through the use of teacher feedback surveys. I loved this ide. I have already created multiple end of the evaluations for students to complete in the past. This year, I am starting in the penultimate week of school having each of my students take turns responding to the end of year evaluation via my classroom laptop and Googleforms. Using this will ensure that I am not carting around 120 survey at the end of the year, and I can keep all the data compiled digitally until I am ready to address it. I' also looking forward to using the forms for other types of feedback thought out the year. professionally I plan on creating some forms to send out to my 6th grade team after the PD we receive from the county. We have been fortunate enough to receive a lot of PD on new classroom technology but not all teachers feel as though the training is tailored to their needs. By surveying the staff at the start of the year, I hope to collaborate with our technology Coordinator to create PD sessions that are meet the needs of more of my team. In this way I can also differentiate the trainings based on their needs, so teachers won't be spending valuable planning time in sessions that they don't feel benefit them.
Finally, I am most interested in the resources and discussions we have had surrounding the creation of UDL lessons. This is such an important topic for me right now, as we more toward adopting the new CCS in our county. UDL seems like the perfect solution to our failing schools, but I worry about the practicality of creating daily lessons that meet the needs of every learner. I am completely on board, and will do whatever I can with what I have in order to help make this happen, but I am worried that the county simply cannot fund such an ambitious endeavor right now. According to what we know about UDL, we are going to ned a lot more technology in our building to fully implement the approach. WHen I read the papers and look at the budget cuts for next year, I really don;t see us being able to bring the full model to fruition. I know that the idea and philosophy is a good one though, and I'm looking forward to seeing the positive impact it will have on students learning. In the article, "A Whole New School for a WHole New Mind," DeGarmo and Turckes assert that, "At a time when our national government is sharpening the focus on our country's failing high schools and economic stimulus dollars give new promise to the rebuilding of our nation's school buildings, a fresh blueprint is crucial." I am looking forward to a blue print that will eventually trickle down to my school building, and help me reach each of my students. UDL makes sense, but it takes money to implement; money we don't seem to have.
As I finish the course work and discussion for this class, I will continue to attempt the integration of the programs and technologies we have learned about. As a 21st Century Teacher, I hope to prepare my students for a global work place and economy wheer they will have learned the necessary skills to compte effectively. The NETS and the AASL standards will continue to shape the way I teach my classes.

SHANGHAI, Jan 11 (Reuters) - China's recent moves to tighten control of its online and mobile content industries have brought some uncertainty into the market but may not have a major immediate impact on the sector's biggest players.
Analysts say the crackdown, which appears to be aimed at pornography and other controversial content, could however stunt the sector's prospects in the long-term.
By 2012, China's online game sector is estimated to have 230 million gamers compared with about 69 million currently, and rake in revenues of 73.1 billion yuan ($10.7 billion), Beijing-based research firm Analysys International said in December. The industry's revenue was estimated at 26 billion yuan last year.
Below are some questions and answers about the possible impact of the latest crackdown.
China slapped on the rules in November and December, requiring online game operators to promote socialist values in their titles and delete violent or obscene content. The Ministry of Culture also requested game operators hire staff to actively screen content in online games.
China's video broadcasting watchdog, the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, closed several video sharing and music sharing websites in early December as they did not have licenses, according to the official Xinhua news agency.
For related stories, click [ID:nTOE5BF08Z], [ID:nSHA201768] and [ID:nTOE5BL08M].
On the mobile side, Beijing regulators closed more than 2,300 mobile websites due to "obscene content".
The crackdown comes months after another controversial campaign tried to force PC makers to install Web-filtering software on all PCs sold in the country. That campaign was ultimately shelved due to international protest. [ID:nPEK138381]
Based on previous crackdowns, China's Internet and mobile content providers will have to tread carefully for the duration of the campaign.
When China launched a similar anti-pornography crackdown in 2000, Internet portals NetEase.com (NTES.O) and Sina (SINA.O) shares took a beating.
This time, analysts expect the impact to be more limited for these firms, as all have diversified their business to avoid too much exposure in any one area.
But less diversified players such as mobile Internet firm KongZhong Corp KONG.O could be more at risk. KongZhong shares fell 8 percent when news of the crackdown hit investor sentiment on Nov 30.
Mobile content providers that work through China Mobile (0941.HK), the country's dominant mobile carrier, must also tread carefully after the company said in December it will halt all payment of wireless application protocol (WAP) fees to content providers.
The crackdown is expected to last until the end of the first quarter at least, and official media have quoted China's culture minister as saying more rules were in the works for online games. Those could impact operators such as Shanda Games GAME.O, NetEase and Changyou (CYOU.O).
Last week, domestic media and analyst reports said two government ministries were also planning new regulation of China's social networking sites. With Facebook and Twitter banned in China, many of the sites such as Kaixin001 and Tencent Holdings (0700.HK) QQ Zone have seen business boom.
The new regulations, which could call for licensing and minimum capital requirements for firms, could benefit larger, more cash-rich companies such as Tencent as smaller players get squeezed out.
Yes and no. When NetEase applied for the license to operate Activision Blizzard's (ATVI.O) popular World of Warcraft in China, it ran into problems as Chinese authorities were hesitant about the game's depiction of death and violence.
Since then, Beijing regulators have made clear their intention to keep China's virtual world clean, which could impact big name developers such as Electronic Arts ERTS.O, and Activision Blizzard seeking to gain a stronger foothold in China. [IDnSHA323848]
However, most observers agree the controversy surrounding NetEase and World of Warcraft was caused by infighting between two government agencies, and was unrelated to the actual game. (Editing by Doug Young and Anshuman Daga)

As the history making ruling came down from the US Supreme Court that gay marriage was now legal, I was outside a courtroom waiting and watching as my lawyer walked back to me from where she had conferred with his lawyer, and his lawyer walked back to him, where he was sitting about 200 feet down the hallway from me. Back and forth we had gone through our lawyers, about four rounds, trying to find common ground and create a separation agreement so that we can divorce. After all, it has been a long and painful two years since we have separated. I was getting angrier and angrier with each confab as I gave up more and more, and felt less and less protected by the law. My intentions for the day, as stated in a Facebook status update the day before, had been to "stay calm, detached from the outcome, and grounded in believing that everything happens for my greater good." I lost that perspective about two hours in.
In the statement released when the Supreme Court of the United States ruled in favour of gay marriage on June 26, 2015, Justice Kennedy wrote for the majority: "No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were. As some of the petitioners in these cases demonstrate, marriage embodies a love that may endure even past death. It would misunderstand these men and women to say they disrespect the idea of marriage. Their plea is that they do respect it, respect it so deeply that they seek to find its fulfillment for themselves. Their hope is not to be condemned to live in loneliness, excluded from one of civilization's oldest institutions. They ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right."
Marriage might symbolize ideals, but of the five that Justice Kennedy named, for so many of us, those ideals have been destroyed by the acts of the one human being we trusted more than anyone. And now we are, as he put it, "condemned to live in loneliness."
As someone who supports gay rights, including the right to marry, and who would have been thrilled any other day, all I could think when I read the news was, I hope that the 50% of you who end up divorcing enjoy that emotional hell and financial destruction your civil fight has now won you: gay marriage will ultimately lead to gay divorce, or as it should be known, marriage sometimes leads to divorce. The lawyers must be thrilled that an entire new clientele has been offered to them on a silver platter.
I felt ashamed of myself for such spite in the face of their joyous celebration, something I would have shared any other day, and at the same time I felt righteous in my indignation that as millions of people around the world celebrated love and marriage and the ideals they represented, I had to face the ugliness of what a dead marriage devoid of any care, compassion or humanity creates. There cannot be anything uglier than two people who once had "become something greater than once they were," fighting over money and property. If I were to guess, his motivation to fight is ego and anger, for me it is fairness and survival; there is no love in any of that. The only one by my side fighting for my civil rights or constitutional freedoms was the lawyer I was paying, the one who kept advising me to "let it go, you aren't going to get that."
The negotiations were a brutal process of conceding this, giving up that, lowering my ask on the other, trying desperately to get an agreement I could live with. I felt invisible and insignificant in the eyes of the court. There was no fairness as far as I could tell.
Despite the fact that we live in a "no-fault" jurisdiction regarding divorce, and not a mention of his adultery came up in court yesterday, the Judge commented that the allegations of a gambling addiction would surely be impactful in a court case. So much for me taking the high road while his lawyer slings mud in my face. The Judge even went so far as to comment on the viability of me making a livable wage in the future as a writer. Nothing seemed to be off the table as far as I was concerned, and he seemed to be coated in teflon.
Driving home, the hateful words of my mother that I have fought against my entire life rang true in my head: you can't trust men, they will only use you, and you can't rely on anyone but yourself. The entire mess my life is in and the reason for the bitter fighting comes down to one decision I made: trusting that my ex would support me after I retired from one career to build another. I never got the chance; he left me five weeks after I gave my retirement notice, before the money had even come in. I am now using my retirement money to pay for my lawyer.
That day three different men made my life a living hell. I felt so angry and bitter that all the work I had done to recover from his betrayal wasn't enough; I was reduced to feeling so much general hatred, and self-pity, and betrayal all over again. I did what I never wanted to do again, I was back to lumping all men into the same category of philanderer's, power and control freaks, and misogynists. I have worked so hard to change the narrative in my head about men, but back that sick song came full volume.
I have lost faith. I couldn't even pray that night because I felt that God and the Universe had abandoned me. I failed to see how this financial and emotional torture was in my best interest, which was all I could really say instead of my normal prayers to keep my heart open, watch over the people I love, which normally includes my ex, and let me bring light to others. I have no light to give, no inspiration to offer, no love in me.
Sometime very late that night it occurred to me that I had entered the "dark night of the soul" for those who know the hero's journey. I have no compassion or love in me. I have no kindness or strength. What I have is everything I have worked so hard to inoculate myself against: bitterness, anger, loathing, fear, distrust, and feeling forsaken, powerless, used and unworthy. I feel like I have moved backwards two years to the weeks after he left me.
How did three hours in a court setting dealing with lawyers, hearing the Judge basically validate his bad behaviour while telling me mine was going to be on display during a trial, and having to face my ex for the first time in almost two years destroy all the work I have done since the separation? Why did that experience single-handedly unglue me and set me back into such a dark place that I was deleting people off Facebook, swearing I would never marry again, and not even able to muster the strength to fake a belief in love when talking to my son?
As I tried to distract myself with social media that night, everyone was posting #LoveWins in reaction to the Supreme Court decision. And that just fuelled the anger and pity and rage in me. Love doesn't win, love isn't enough, and all the love I have been working so hard to muster, promote, praise and hang onto in the last year has forsaken me. There is no love that I have ever known in my life that has won.
I also saw a few postings that said the moral arc of the Universe bends to justice. I am familiar with this concept. For me, yesterday, there was no justice. For many of us, of both sexes, who are going through child custody battles, an ugly divorce, who have lost a family member to violence and hatred, who live in an American town gripped by racial tension and police oppression, or who live in a terrorist or war torn country, it seems God has forsaken us and there will be no justice. Perhaps that is what the LGBTQ community has thought and felt all these years.
How can I heal myself and drag my sorry ass out of the pit of helplessness, hopelessness, self-pity, and rage, when I have lost the beacon that illuminated the shadows? If I don't believe in love, and the Universe and God loving me deeply, I don't believe in anything.
Since I got home I have bawled deep gut wracking sobs of grief for what I have lost that will never be mine again, screamed out my anger at the unfairness of it all, and hurt my hand from hitting the wall in frustration, but I am not yet able to talk to anyone about the experience. I haven't talked to another human being except my son in over two days, and I don't know when I will be ready to face people again. I write instead, trying to process what happened and why I slipped into the pit so easily.
I searched TED talks for salvation and inspiration using phrases such as dark night of the soul, healing yourself, anger, betrayal, love and marriage.
Writer Andrew Solomon, from his TED talk Love, No Matter What: "There are people who think that the existence of my family somehow undermines or weakens or damages their family. And, there are people who think that families like mine shouldn't be allowed to exist. And I don't accept subtractive models of love; only additive one's. And I believe that in the same way that we need species diversity to ensure that the planet can go on, so we need this diversity of affection and diversity of family in order to strengthen the ecosphere of kindness."
I lost my family and there is no affection in my life. How am I supposed to muster kindness for others? I hope this is just a reactionary pit-stop in the trajectory of my life; I don't want to be a dark, fearful, miserable, closed-off shell of a human being for very long; I don't like myself right now.
Psychologist Guy Winch, in his TED talk Why We All Need To Practise Emotional First Aid, speaks about the favouritism we give our physical pain over emotional pain. We don't tell someone with a broken leg to walk it off, so why do we think we can "shake off" our loneliness or depression? The problems with psychological wounds are that they distort our perceptions and mislead us, and Dr. Winch knows how hard it is to change our minds once we have been convinced of something. He reminds me that I must fight helplessness and not trust my mind when my self-esteem is battered.
I am relieved and grateful for the future of humanity now that the United States is finally getting on board with equality, because that has been the core of the conversation all along hasn't it? That all people deserve the freedom to choose how to live their life, no matter their sexuality, race, gender etc? The win has nothing to do with marriage per se, it is the ability to be the captain of your own ship and make the choices we deem important to ourselves.
That was missing for me in court, having any ownership of my future.
Despite the fact that we live in a "no-fault" jurisdiction regarding divorce, and not a mention of his adultery came up in court yesterday, the Judge commented that the allegations of a gambling addiction would surely be impactful in a court case. So much for me taking the high road while his lawyer slings mud in my face. The Judge even went so far as to comment on the viability of me making a livable wage in the future as a writer. Nothing seemed to be off the table as far as I was concerned, and he seemed to be coated in teflon.

Lunch with Jeremy & Doreen Likness; Exciting new Titan options!
Wednesday, July 13, 2005 by John Stone
Filed under Daily Blog
Yesterday Lisa and I had a very nice lunch with Jeremy and Doreen Likness. Jeremy and I have had many phone conversations and exchanged countless emails over the past couple of years, so it was cool to finally meet him in person. The Likness Clan is moving to Florida, so I'm sure we'll be seeing a lot more of each other now. I'm looking forward to working out with Jeremy – I'm sure we can learn a lot from each other.
I've mentioned in the past that the Titan is engineered so that future add-ons could be developed and purchased after the initial sale. Brian with Fitcore posted about the latest new option, and it's an awesome addition to the Titan: Option "HPB" – Heavy Punching Bag. I can't wait to get mine! Fitcore has also partnered with Everlast, so you can get bags at a great price. Brian also announced a new Inversion Boots option that will be available at the same time as the HPB option (about 6 weeks). They are taking pre-orders now, so check out all the details here. I'll be sure to post some pictures in my Titan Photo Journal as soon as I get mine!
Time for cardio and abs. Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!

Credit information is the most essential part for bank and there are some certain sources of credit information of bank. following paragraph are discussed about source of credit information.
The banker has to collect information from different sources about a prospective borrower to assess creditworthiness. There were no such specialized credit agencies in Bangladesh which could assist banks by giving reports on borrower.
Even a report on a borrower obtained through banks in Bangladesh was usually brief and sketchy and did not give sufficient information that could be of much practical use except that an adverse report may give a warning signal.
Our country needs to establish credit agencies like that of British or American type so that healthy business activities can be smoothly financed by bankers.
Bangladesh Bank, however, established a Credit Information Bureau in 1992 with a view to collect all sorts of data about borrowers to assess their creditworthiness to strengthen credit discipline.

OK, so maybe not "perfectly". I have a tendency to get all wrapped up in a good deal, and ignore things like, oh, shoes being too big. These shoes reminded me so much of Barbie that I couldn't resist them. I LOVED Barbie growing up, I played with them well into junior high. I excused it by blaming my little sister, but really I loved to play. We were pretty vicious, stripping all the dolls bare and taking turns picking dolls and outfits. So clearly there was some nostalgia at work when I bought these pumps.
Adding to the nostalgia was the fact that I clomped around like a little girl playing dress up ALL DAY because the shoes would not stay on my feet!!! By the end of the day my feet were killing me, but I felt oh so pretty! A student said I looked like I had traveled straight from the 1980s with today's outfit, and I said, "Yeah, I know! Like a friggin' awesome Barbie doll!" I don't think he meant it as a compliment, but Barbie shoes just change a girl's perspective. Even if they are too big!

Police have acknowledged that a cache of ammunition and a hand gun were uncovered during the renovation of a house near Tamnamore, a small village in east Tyrone.
The handgun and ammunition were allegedly found in a dusty plastic bag underneath floorboards during the renovation of the house during June.
It is claimed that the workmen who made the find reported it to the police, who came with a forensic team and removed the weapons.
However, police initially denied any knowledge of the incident.
The weapon will now be expedited for re-examination to establish if it can be linked to any historical incidents.
The Pat Finucane Centre had announced it was pursuing an investigation into the discovery and its possible connections with violent loyalists.

Back in the timeline of marketing history, historians of economics believe that marketing began in 1468 during the period of William Caxton, one of the world's leading print writers. When he published a book in his first print ad, then in 1704, the first newspaper advertisement, For a buyer to buy Oyster Bay Long Island, in the Boston News,
Although marketing has begun with the first sale, it is not disputed that the marketing process has evolved a lot over the years, and the pace of changes in marketing has accelerated with the rapid new developments in the world of technology, and it is clear that marketing will remain until the last sale on this planet, If you're interested in marketing, here are the best parallel profits marketing tips from the most experienced professionals in the field:
1. Seth Godin: Marketing, stories, and other things
Seth Godin is one of the most well-known names in the field of marketing today, and his blog is one of the most targeted websites for marketers and business owners. He is a well-known marketer, entrepreneur and best-selling bookstore in marketing. Seth Godin has launched successful pilot projects such as Yoyodyne , One of the first Internet marketing companies in the world, which he sold to Yahoo! In 1998 for $ 30 million, and Squidoo, a platform acquired by HubPages.
In one of Seth Godin's best advices in marketing, he says: Your market requires two things: first, the goods and services are wonderful and fascinating, the stories deserve to be shared, things worth talking to the public, secondly to have permission to talk to them, not spam, Predictive, personal, and relevant messages … In essence, you start designing products and services that people want to talk about, because talking about them benefits them.
Seth Godin believes that the job of the marketer, then, is to tell a real story, a story that resonates, others matter to people, often repeated to create value, and indicates that small business owners should be "shopkeepers" to a lesser extent, They are more like "artists."Marketing is the things we make and the way we choose to tell a story about them, "Godin adds.
In one of Seth Godin's most important questions: What are the biggest challenges marketers face today and what can they do to address them? Seth Godin replied: "I think the biggest challenge is to stop acting like a marketer and start acting like a human being."
2. Philip Kotler – The Father of Modern Marketing
Philip Kotler is well known in the marketing world. "The Father of Modern Marketing" is the renowned author of marketing books, a well-known consultant and an American professor who is currently a Distinguished Professor of International Marketing at Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. He is the author of more than 60 books in marketing science, including marketing management, marketing principles, and Philip Kotler talks about marketing, marketing statistics from the ground up, marketing 4.0, marketing venues, marketing of nations, etc. , Helped Philip Kotler create a social marketing area that focuses on touch Several individuals and groups to modify their behavior towards a healthier and safer methods of living.
For Kotler, the most important step in marketing is to identify the target group, fragmentation, and fragmentation means that you can not serve all customers with the same level of satisfaction. In this way, in order to maximize satisfaction, it is necessary to define the target market. The target market "consists of a group of buyers who have the needs and / or characteristics common to those that the company or organization decides to provide." This specifically refers to the advertisement on Facebook, which provides a detailed breakdown through custom ads.
The most important point after determining your target audience according to Kotler is positioning, which makes your target audience know exactly how to differ from your competitors, for example, in the case of Starbucks you will see that it not only ensures that the coffee is fresh and that the product contains what is required, The company adds a lot of privileges. "So, as Mr. Kotler points out to the Starbucks example," Their location offers the best coffee, more varieties to choose from, and a truly enjoyable experience in a place where you will enjoy coffee. "
Kotler divides marketing companies into three types:
Marketing 1.0: Kotler explains this type of access to the minds of customers, that companies do a good job, and provide products of good quality for people to make profits.
Marketing 2.0: Kotler explains the idea that some companies decide to learn more about who sell their products, and start to manufacture and sell high quality goods, to understand their customers by studying large databases and providing a differential service for them.
Marketing 3.0: The most advanced form of marketing, according to Kotler, a few companies that follow this approach, is to understand that customer identification is more than just finding someone interested in our product.
"They understand that people in an unstable world are suffering from economic and environmental problems that need to be addressed," Kotler explains. Therefore, companies dedicated to marketing 3.0 operate in this unstable and uncertain context, with the aim of showing their interest in improving customer conditions.
3. Gary Vaynerchuk: Marketing is building relationships
One of the most famous young entrepreneurs in the field of marketing and a well-known pioneer in digital marketing, social networking and entrepreneurship, is an investor, speaker and author of four times the best-selling author of the New York Times. VaynerMedia and VaynerX .. and others.
Gary Vaynerchuk Social networking is the biggest advantage for businesses today and for the coming months, young entrepreneurs are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to promote their brand to the right audience at a reasonable price, to have the right key and follow the right approach to the marketing opportunity available to them. You know: where is your audience and what are they doing? Is Snap Chat the right tool to solve customer problems? Is email the best way to reach your audience? Is event marketing and personal interaction the best solution for creating an experience for your brand?
According to Gary Vaynerchuk, marketing automation is not the solution. Some companies use automation, tools, tracking software, automated responses, applications and services, thinking they will solve customer problems. But the fact is that sales are about people. Gary Vaynerchuk recommends that marketers build Relationships First, they have to put themselves at the disposal of the customer and sympathize with his position, because no application will teach them that.
In marketing content, Gary Vaynerchuk says: "There is no excuse for not creating content about your product, service, company or brand, rather than trying to sell just for sale, you will now have the luxury of creating entertaining or useful content as a gateway to a long-term relationship."
In the related content, Gary Vaynerchuk has a different opinion as he thinks the marketer does not need the content you create to be associated with your product. You can publish your favorite articles that say "These are the articles you need to read" that you can post about the weather, news, and users to yourself. ! As long as you focus on bringing value to the end consumer, you will build reputation and relationships.

He is the author of the New York Times bestseller, described by the Wall Street Journal as having a great influence on the Internet. Forbes says he is one of the top 10 marketers. Entrepreneur says he created one of the 100 most successful companies, Works under the age of 30 by President Obama, and among the top 100 businessmen under the age of thirty-fifth by the United Nations.
"One of the biggest mistakes I see from entrepreneurs is that they're trying to do everything, but that's a big misconception about entrepreneurs," says Patel. "It's not your business to deal with each person personally. Part of the work. "
According to Neil Patel, writing a great blog will take up to six hours a day. As a business owner, you will not have time to do so. Six hours a day writing one article for your company's blog when you have a lot of tasks to do. Your list is a very stressful and wasteful time, so you'll need to outsource if you want to continue to grow your business by doing fewer minor tasks.
Neil Patel encourages business owners to use marketing networks because they are one of the best ways to connect with customers, promote content, and guide new potential customers, but Gary Vaynerchuk recommends automating your company's social networking accounts to increase traffic and profits.
Neil Patel also points to the need to take advantage of content marketing because it is the right first step. But before launching the marketing campaign, Neil Patel says: "Content is not a king; the great content is the king. You can not publish thousands of sub-level articles , Or even good, and expect to achieve good results, you should only share the wonderful content.".

I failed to spell the yarn dyeing process correctly and figured that someone might want to know what Dartmoor Dyeing is! This post is from "Weaving Yarnz"and she explains it quite well. Read some more of her posts by clicking on the Weaving Yarnz link above!Tuesday, 25 March 2008
The dyepots are replenished with more dye and vinegar (using the same water) and the same process is repeated with the 2nd of the initial 3 divisions; more dye replenishment and the final of the 3 divisions is done the same way. What you end up with is a feast for the eyes – 48 piles of glorious colour …
The left column are the results from the red pot, the next from the blue, then yellow and jade.
And a close-up of 2 of the results which show the effect obtained by using a greasy fleece (in this instance, very greasy, having only been shorn the previous day). The left one was first dyed in the red pot, then in the yellow; the right one was red first, then jade. The variations in colour are the result of the greasy parts of the staple resisting the dye in the initial simmering but the drier tips taking it up well; then on the second run the grease has been boiled off and the second colour has been taken up.

Personas help brands go beyond their main branded social handles by creating new voices to reach defined audiences through content syndication. Personas can introduce a company using conversation by intersecting with the interests of users.
Box Beauty Persona Example
1. Understand The Audience
Kim - a 20-year-old undergraduate woman with liberal political views and a modest income. Kim is concerned about environmental issues facing society, her student debt, and giving to charity. To supplement her income, she blogs about makeup that is environmentally friendly and affordable.
Nicola - a 40-year-old woman who is high-earning and uses high-end makeup to reduce the aging process. She takes vacations regularly and practices a healthy lifestyle when she can. Price is not an issue for her as she sees the products she uses as an investment and balks at the idea of plastic surgery.
2. Create New Voices For Each Demographic
Kim's demographic: A branded Persona "Box Eco" that posts content about how Box Beauty's products are made with eco-friendly materials, how Box Beauty gives back to the community, and promoting the company's view that "everyone is beautiful".
Nicola's demographic: A non-branded Persona "Age Wellness" that publishes content about skin-care research, healthy living, and activities that promote wellness. Periodically, content will promote high-end Box products.
These two Personas directly connect with their target audience and focus Box Beauty's message making it more relevant to the individual. With each Persona, Box Beauty has the opportunity to grow their reach by intersecting with the lives of consumers who have their own values and needs. These types of personas are a another way to build brand loyalty and consumer advocacy.

Core beliefs:
A Leader is
someone who is interested in who they really are, is passionate about how they can contribute, and takes responsibility for how they want to live. Someone who is willing to fully engage and savor the sweetness of the gift of life. Someone that aligns with the intelligence of nature and learns to trust life, listens deeply for their unique calling, is courageous enough to reveal their authentic self, and be accountable for when they don't, marinates in the fire of transformation for the sake of awareness, bows to the power and potency of space and respects pausing before acting, is committed to seeing life clearly, acts in ways that makes them and those around them feel more alive, embodied, empowered, and has reverence for surrendering only to begin again–every day.
Life is happening right now, there is nothing to transcend, and nowhere else you need to be. The world needs you here, and is always inviting you to participate with the great tapestry of existence. Life is full of different flavors and textures, and as a leader or what I like to call a wave rider you are being called to surf these waves with grace, awareness, and for the sake of what you add to this divine matrix. It is clear that the world is changing, some might even say that the world is falling apart and what if that was actually good news?
This time we are living in, can be viewed as a season of transformation—the part of the cycle in which things fall apart. Nature teaches that life is infused with a natural process of continual cyclical motion. Birth and death, expansion and contraction, night and day, and the recurrent transition of the seasons. In wintertime, things start to die; there's an involution, going inside, and a slowing down. Then the cycle slides into springtime, full of new beginnings, and a potential to plant new seeds of possibility. Springtime expands into summertime, a phase of flourishing and abundance only to flow into autumn, the time of transformation, heading back towards the space of winter. Disintegration is necessary in order for rebirth to occur. However, for many, this part of the cycle can be scary and disruptive, because what they've known is going away as something new emerges. I say "Hooray," to our current dysfunctional systems falling apart. We are alive at a critical time, also known as a choice point; a junction in which we need to choose how we want to move forward. Do we want to recreate the past and continue to propagate the systems that clearly don't function? Do we want to bolster the ongoing disconnection between head and heart that we see every day in our world? Or do we want to make the choice to create a world in which head and heart are actually in collaboration?
While many continue to live their lives promoting the status quo, there is evidence of others who have a great hunger and desire to evolve and expand their capacity to live more skillfully and co-create a new world. How do we get there?
By transforming oneself the world transforms. This is how true transformative change occurs, this is leadership. Our deepest calling is to grow more and more into our authentic self — this is the work of a leader — and constitutes the redefinition of past leadership models.
We are all called to leadership. Leaders consider this life precious and are thus willing to act deliberately in service to life. Moreover, leadership is an inward journey into the depths of what it means to be human.
Leadership is about being fully expressed, about being called to one's greatness, and about having the courage to act in ways that are in alignment with one's highest self. The world relies on each of us to heed the call of our heart. There is a divine unfolding of life to hear your personal calling, and the path of yoga can provide the tools to answer this call, and to live a life of possibility, passion and integrity. By liberating your own heart and stepping fully into your authenticity you inspire others to do the same — this is the new way of leadership.

Adrienne Power is an Olympian. The three-time Dalhousie Female Athlete of the Year was named to Canada's track and field team for the Beijing games as a "rising star" after winning the 200-metre gold medal at the Senior National Championships (SNC) earlier this month.
Her time of 23.02 in a qualifying heat was just .02 of the Olympic 'A' standard that she needed for automatic qualification. "Rising star" designation is awarded to athletes who have some international experience and are capable of finishing in the top half of the field in Beijing.
The 26-year-old native of East Jeddore attended Dalhousie from 2000 to 2005 and was a key member of the Dalhousie women's track and field program, winning nine medals, including six gold, at the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS) championships. Ms. Power is also the only Atlantic Canadian university athlete to ever win the CIS athlete of the year award.
"Having an athlete like Adrienne continue to be a part of the Dal program is certainly an huge plus for us," says former Dalhousie head coach Dan Hennigar. "The younger athletes can definitely learn a lot from the way Adrienne trains and competes."
While training for the upcoming Olympic Games, she reflects on how her time at Dalhousie allowed her to follow her Olympic dreams. She says the level of competition and pressure that came from competing as a university athlete prepared her to compete on an international stage: "The CIS and senior national championships are pretty close in terms of pressure and nervousness…all of those (CIS) races definitely helped me become a strong competitor both mentally and physically."
After a training session in Singapore, Ms. Power will arrive in China for the second half of the Olympics. She is scheduled to compete in the 200-metre heats on August 19, with the finals scheduled for August 21.

So if you are fed up of this hustle bustle of life then why not try some outskirts of Taipei. The article presents you with some nearby areas of Taipei where you can love to visit.
It is also worth noting that 14 of the top 15 highest paid jobs are in the healthcare sector. After the top fifteen you find jobs like sales managers, marketing managers, computer managers, 21 pilots but these make only half of what the top healthcare professionals make. So the moral of the story is clearly if you want to make serious money – study medicine! You will also have the pleasure of knowing that your job is actually doing some good!
Experienced Blues veterans like Muddy Waters and Howlin' Wolf brought Delta Blues in its purest, most potent form. Electrified instruments existed now and Blacks would soon have the money to afford them. Blues would cease to be quaint, woodsy folk. It would speak to larger audiences in a louder, slicker voice. It would speak to the nation. It would speak to the World.
Some thirty albums later, the monster- guitarist, keyboardist, vocalist, composer, producer and arranger, continues to record and tour with his Paul Reed Smith- Modern Eagle electric guitar.
In his op-ed piece Mr. Parker says that drones are "capable of withstanding radiation levels that would kill a human pilot." To me this means that we won't be needing as many pilots.
Bogota is a city that is proud, and the churches and museums are testaments to that fact. And Bogota has a fun side to show you, too. There is festival street dancing, and carnivals to attract your attention. You can also walk through the wonderful botanical garden. The Virgilio Barco library will let you read more about the city's history, and the younger people can have a blast at the El Tunal Park, where the annual site showcases Latin talents.
Nevertheless, Miller propelled popular music along. His show featured Leslie Uggams, a pioneering move that gave a major singing role on a TV show to a minority woman. He produced many great talents, including Tony Bennett, Johnny Mathis and Percy Faith. He discovered Aretha Franklin.
The LBD comes in many styles. Low-cut, backless, figure-hugging, sleeveless, strapless – the list is endless. The same applies to fabrics. Lace, chiffon, sequined, satin crepe, even leather. You cannot fail to find a little black dress to suit the occasion or mood.
When Alamo offers such great things to a family, it seems best to anchor your life in Alamo. On the subject of commuting to a base or continually moving my family, I believe we got it right. About half of my pilot buddies agree, the other half might have to live in Virginia.

Tom and Jerry is an American animated series of theatrical shorts, television shows and specials, feature film, home films created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera for Metro-Goldwyn Mayer that centered on a never-ending rivalry between a cat (Tom) and a mouse (Jerry) whose chases and battles often involved slapstick comedy. Hanna and Barbera wrote and directed one hundred and fourteen Tom and Jerry cartoons at the MGM cartoon studio in Hollywood, California between 1940 and 1957, when the animation unit was closed. The original series is notable for having won the Academy Award for the Best Short Film seven times, tying it with Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies as the theatrical animated series with the most Oscars. Tom and Jerry has a worldwide audience that consists of children, teenagers and adults, and has also been recognized as one of the most famous and longest-lived rivalries in American cinema. In 2000, time named the series one of the greatest television shows of all time.
Beginning in 1960, in addition to the original 114 H-B cartoons, MGM had new shorts produced by Rembrandt Films, led by Gene Deitch in Eastern Europe. Production of Tom and Jerry shorts returned to Hollywood under Chuck Jones's Sib Tower 12 Productions in 1963; this series lasted until 1967, making it a total of 161 shorts. The cat and mouse stars later resurfaced in television cartoons produced by Hanna-Barbera and Filmation Studios during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s; a feature film,Tom and Jerry: The Movie, in 1992 (released domestically in 1993); and in 2000, their first made-for TV short, Tom and Jerry: The Mansion Cat for Boomerang. The most recent Tom and Jerry theatrical short, The Karate Guard, was written and co-directed by Barbera and debuted in Los Angeles cinemas on September 27, 2005.
Today, Time Warner (via its Turner Entertainment division) owns the rights to Tom and Jerry (with Warner Bros. handling distribution). Since the merger, Turner has produced the series, Tom and Jerry Tales for The CW's Saturday morning "The CW4Kids" lineup, as well as the recent Tom and Jerry short, The Karate Guard, in 2005 and a string of Tom and Jerry direct-to-video films - all in collaboration with Warner Bros. Animation. In February 2010, the cartoon celebrated its 70th anniversary and a DVD collection of 30 shorts, Tom and Jerry Deluxe Anniversary Collection, was released in late June 2010 to celebrate the animated duo's seventh decade.
Currently, Tom and Jerry is re-ran on Turner's Boomerang channel, along with Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies shorts (times vary each day).

Brisbane Queen's Wharf Construction Starts
The first sod will be turned on Brisbane's Queen's Wharf development after more than a year of demolition work.
The precinct, which was largely made up of old government buildings, has been earmarked for redevelopment into a $3 billion multi-use development.
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk is set to turn the sod on the project on Thursday afternoon to mark the official start of construction works, with the project set to open its core resort development by 2022.

REITER, WILHELM ARTHUR (1886–1974). Wilhelm Arthur "Bill" Reiter, geologist whose expertise and persistence brought in the Mexia Oil Field, was born at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on September 21, 1886. He was the son of William Theodore Reiter and Carrie L. (Putnam) Reiter. His grandfather, Conrad Reiter, had been an oil wildcatter in the dawn days of the U. S. oil business in Pennsylvania and inspired Reiter to seek a career in oil. After his father's death, Wilhelm moved with his mother to a farm in western Kentucky.
In 1910 Reiter earned a degree as a mining engineer at Kentucky State University, where he met F. Julius Fohs, nationally-known petroleum engineer. From 1909 to 1916 Reiter worked for the U. S. Geological Survey before he became one of Fohs's stable of bright, college-educated young geologists in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
After service in the United States Army during World War I, Reiter returned to Tulsa. On April 1, 1919, he reported to the Corsicana-Mexia region of Texas on instructions from Fohs to hunt for oil in existing natural gas fields. Although his boss became discouraged about prospects and ordered him to another site, Reiter was so sure that there was oil in Limestone County that he arranged financing himself and insisted that the discovery well be drilled. He was amply vindicated when Roger No. 1 blew in on November 19, 1920, setting off the incredible Mexia oil boom and opening up a field which was to produce more than 100 million barrels.
The Mexia Field was pivotal in the history of Texas oil as the first fault-line oil reservoir and the first to exploit the rich Woodbine Sand (see WOODBINE FAULT-LINE FIELDS), which later produced millions of barrels of crude from all over the eastern half of the state, including the great East Texas Oil Field, the field that won World War II.
In 1922 Reiter married Minnie Lucille Denning of Mexia, who had had the honor of driving the stake for Rogers No. 1. The same year he left the Fohs organization to join with a fellow geologist, William Henry Foster, to form Foster-Reiter Consulting Geologists and the Reiter Oil Corporation. These successful companies evolved into the Reiter-Foster Oil Corporation with offices in Tulsa, Dallas (where Reiter made his home and had offices in the Magnolia Building), and New York. He sold his interest in the corporation in early 1929.
In 1936 Reiter moved to Houston to resume work for the Julius Fohs organization. During 1946 he worked geology for the Sinclair Oil Company in Panama and returned to set up business for himself as an independent in Houston.
Some of his important later discoveries were the Reiter Field in Freestone County in 1949, the Reiter North Field in Navarro County in 1951, the Coit Field in Limestone County in 1952, the Cistern North Field in Fayette and Bastrop counties in 1964, and the Mary Macha Gas Field in Wharton County in 1958.
All three of his sons—William Jr., Putnam K., and Jesse Oscar—became active in the oil business. Putnam K., who later became Judge P. K. Reiter of Houston, said that his father discovered more oil after the age of sixty-five then before it, in spite of his early successes. Reiter died in Mexia on April 13, 1974. He was buried in Mexia City Cemetery.

The ROAHM (Robotics and Optimization for the Analysis of Human Motion) Lab seeks to understand and improve human and robot interaction with one another and with the environment. We devise techniques to diagnose unsafe behavior and construct controllers that can then safely intervene or aid in retraining. Our approach can be divided into three categories:
Sensor analysis and optimization to identify hybrid dynamical models of motion
Automated analysis of dynamical models using optimization, robotics, and system theory
Numerical tools to design semi-autonomous control architectures for safe interaction

I have decided to dedicate a post each Friday to give credit (or not!) to some of my past favorites (and nots!). This week the Flashback Friday spot goes to Netflix...definitely a favorite!! Read on..
I realize that this review is a little off the subject from my usual but read on and you will see why Netflix is a Moms best friend.
For those of you who do not know, Netflix is a mail subscription program for renting movies. For $8.99 per month you are allowed one movie out at a time. When you are finished viewing your choice (no time limit AND no late fees!) you simply pop the DVD back into the mail in the provided envelope. When the company receives your video the next video in your "queue" is immediately sent to you (the whole process usually takes 2-3 days). To put movies in your queue you go online and choose from countless titles from every genre including new releases. Now for me, this alone is great. My husband and I always have a movie on hand for a movie night and we don't have to worry about late fees if we don't have energy for movie night for a week or two. You also can't beat the right to your door service. Our local video store is only ten minutes away but that might as well be ten hours on days when you don't feel like packing up the kids and dragging them into the video store to choose a movie!
Now for the very, very best part. Included in the $8.99 per month fee is the little gem called "instant queue". Instant queue are movies you can select that will automatically be available for you to watch online or on your television. Wow! I love, love, love this feature. There are not as many titles to choose from (fewer new releases) but certainly enough to find something for everyone to enjoy. There are movies, television shows and lots and lots of programs for children. I use the instant queue mainly for the kids. Using this feature they have been able to see some of my childhood favorites (Scooby Doo and Inspector Gadget!) as well as enjoy some newer favorites such as Caillou and the movie Bolt. You can't beat this ammo in your back pocket for rainy days or sick days!
I don't pretend to be a technical wizard...far from it! But if you have any of the following devices in your home you will be able to instantly watch programs...
Among the large and expanding base of devices that can stream movies and TV episodes from Netflix right to members' TVs are Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PS3 game consoles and, this spring, Nintendo's Wii console; Blu-ray disc players from Samsung, LG and Insignia; Internet TVs from LG, Sony and VIZIO; the Roku digital video player and TiVo digital video recorders.
Even if you do not have one of the above the DVD rental alone is worth it. Every Mom needs something to make life easier even if it is something as simple as entertainment delivered right to your door (or TV!!). Enjoy.

Flashback Friday...Netflix

I LOVE the Netflix Instant Queue. We have been able to ditch cable and save $50 a month. Not only is there ample children's programing available on the instant queue but also a number of great TV shows for the grown ups. As a busy mom, I rarely have time for a full movie, but I can usually find 30-60 minutes to watch a tv show. Netflix has become my new best friend!

Kiserian wind turbine blades to destroy birds
Credit: By GILBERT KOECH | The Star | Mar. 29, 2017 | www.the-star.co.ke ~~
A proposed wind power project in Kiserian, Kajiado county, has run into trouble after conservationists rejected it, saying it could wipe out migratory birds.
BirdLife International, Nature Kenya, Kenya Bird of Prey Trust and the Peregrine Fund say the project threatens critically endangered bird species.
In a statement on Tuesday last week, they said the project is close to the nesting sites of two species of endangered vultures and an important flyway for a huge number of migratory birds.
"Just 14 kilometres from Kwenia cliffs – the third largest nesting site of Rüppell's vultures in Kenya – and 10km from the white-backed vulture colony, these wind turbine blades could severely hurt these species, which are on the edge of extinction," the conservationists said.
With a generation capacity of 100MW of clean, renewable, electrical energy, the project is the second largest wind power project in Kenya.
It is situated in Esilanke southwest of Nairobi and covers 70 square kilometres.
The group said a recent survey showed the two colonies regularly contain more than 80 pairs of nesting vultures and both species frequently fly over and occasionally forage at the proposed site.
The birds would be at risk of colliding with wind turbines, they said.
The Egyptian vultures in the area have become extinct, they said. However, it still holds an impressive number of cliff-dwelling large falcons and Verreaux's eagles.
Nature Kenya executive director Paul Matiku said the decision to build the plant at the site violates Kenya's commitment to the Convention on Migratory Species.

Ummmmm... for those that need some motivation or tips for exams xD
Seriously this is kinda a weird drama, teaching you and giving viewers on tips how to score your exams >_> Oh well =D As i've said, this drama mainly about exams. Apparently there is a high school where the overall average of 36%, and about to declare bankrupt. So a lawyer was sent in order to give the school their notice and bankrupt. But instead of doing that, the lawyer intended to change the school reputation and at the same time save the school from bankruptcy by having 5 students from this school enrolled to Tokyo University (the most prestigious university in Japan). So he started a special on his own with his own selected teachers and own methods as the other teachers laughing at them. How they gonna end up? Go and watch it by yourself xD
Our hero, or should i say the only main character (as the heroine is pretty useless >_>)is Sakuragi Kenji (played by Abe Hiroshi) is once a member of motorcycle gang and finally end up being a laywer, a poor lawyer i can say <_< Due to his background, most of the poeple will say he is once a gangster although later he tried to explain that gangster and motorcycle gang is different xD He determine to teach the special class students until they managed to enrolled into Tokyo University using his own method.
Honestly i will say this drama kinda suitable for those that going to take exams, as it offer some quite good tips for studying (although i seriously don't feel like following it =p ). It also teaches the meaning of living and what will you face in this world (reality in other word). There are a few popular cast in this drama like Yamashita Tomohisa and Aragaki Yui. Overall i can give it a 3/10 since mostly it is about exams and it doesn't focus much on other characters like the students and the ending kinda so-so >_> Well, if you are interested about the exam tips, you might as well watch it xD
