Just an update from the home front. The summer hours, as precious as every single one is here, are numbered and squeaking by.
Never winter. Please. Thank you. Endless summer.
Nearly midnight tonight and the cake in the oven has nearly 45 more minutes to bake. At least it is almond cake and smells of heaven. I learned early on and fight the urge to pull the cake too soon. Sleep will come, under baked cake has no mend.
The kitchen is a tornado of dishes. Dinner party dishes. There are three people I know that will do dishes after dinner, I am not one of them and they obviously didn't have dinner here. They are welcome anytime. So are you. I prefer it here at home these days, it is a good place.
I have more cake orders than I have time for and have to tell people no, not a strong suit of mine. Midnight the day before a cake needs to be done is not the style I like to adhere to. So it goes. It is summer and hours are not to be taken foregranted.
I have new friends to make, trails to ride, flowers to tend and sun to soak up.
John bought me a new mountain bike a few weeks ago and I can't seem to get enough of it or enough time to try. I am trying to make me a priority these days but I am incredibly enamored by so many things it is hard to get a single thing done.
Summer hours are long but never long enough to make up for the nine months of hibernation that occurs every year.
Which brings me to...
If John was any less of the super man that he is, he wouldn't be walking right now.
He is a tough cracker and keeps his head up like a true sportsman, rolling with the punches. Punches they are, hurt they do.

text: Small-scale dynamo action describes the generation of magnetic fields on scales comparable with, or smaller than the characteristic scale of the velocity. It is believed to occur quite naturally in turbulent fluids when the magnetic Reynolds number --- a dimensionless measure of the electrical conductivity --- is sufficiently high. In general terms dynamo action succeeds if, on average, field amplification exceeds field destruction. In a turbulent system, field generation is due to the stretching of field lines by the flow, while field destruction is due to enhanced diffusivity. In these lectures I will review some of the efforts to provide a quantitative description of these two processes. I will introduce ideas like the Lyapunov exponents and the topological entropy to measure the stretching rate, and the cancellation exponent to measure the rate of enhanced diffusion. I will also distinguish between dynamos driven by smooth velocities and dynamos driven by rough velocities, i.e. velocities that are strongly fluctuating on the scale at which magnetic reconnection occurs. Physically these two cases correspond to fluids whose magnetic Prandtl number---the ratio of the viscosity to the magnetic diffusivity---is larger (smooth case), or smaller (rough case) than unity.

When people hear the word design, they sometimes think only of making something look good, using colors and graphics to add interest. But on the web, and especially on a blog, design has a purpose: to grab readers when they arrive, make it easy for them to get what they want, and create trust through a consistent and professional look.
A well-designed business blog:
- Uses visual interest to make posts easy to read
- Brands your business in a consistent way
- Places useful information in places where it is easy to find
- Isn't cluttered with things that aren't helping you promote your business
- Makes it easy for readers to do what you want them to do

My 92-year-old aunt, who is cognitively impaired and requires a walker or wheelchair to get around, still lives in her own apartment, where round-the-clock home health aides help her get to and from the bathroom, bathe, dress and undress, and go outside each day for some fresh air. The aides shop, prepare and serve meals, do light housekeeping and make sure she takes her medications on time.
But last month, my aunt's long-term care insurance ran out, and her meager savings will soon do the same. Then what?
Her daughters, both of whom work to support their families, cannot afford the $150 a day for 24-hour care by a certified home health aide, and my aunt has nothing to sell that could bring in the needed cash. Nor does she yet qualify for Medicaid or have a terminal illness that would justify hospice care, which would be covered by Medicare.
Complicating matters, her daughters long ago promised that they would not put her in a nursing home.
Such dilemmas are increasingly common as people live longer. The number of Americans 65 and older is expected to double to 80 million in the next three decades. People 85 and older are the fastest-growing age group; by 2020, there will be 6.6 million people in that age bracket, when rates of debilitating ailments soar.
Most Americans older than 65 will eventually need help with the so-called tasks of daily living — eating, dressing, bathing, shopping and the like. But with family members spread all over the map or unable to be full-time caregivers for other reasons, the need for new and better options will only increase.
When asked, 80 to 90 percent of older people say they want to remain in their own homes as long as possible. Yet remaining in one's home indefinitely is not always the best choice, even if it is financially feasible. As life draws near a close, many older adults need more care than can be provided safely at home. Simply finding reputable home health aides can be a nightmare, and family members often are forced to fill gaps in even the best caregiving plans.
The challenge is all the more difficult when no one has thought through the options before a serious illness or injury makes it impossible for elders to return home without full-time help.
Many elders living independently need outside help long before they require round-the-clock care. A range of assistance and housing alternatives has rapidly sprung up to meet this demand. Many focus on improving accessibility in the home and access to neighborhood conveniences.
An older person living in the suburbs who can no longer drive may become isolated, lonely and at risk of malnutrition if there is no person or community service to shop for her and take her places. Even stairs are a major obstacle.
Elinor Ginzler, director of the Cahnmann Center for Supportive Services at the Jewish Council for the Aging in Rockville, Md., writes that "the ability to age in place is greatly determined by the physical design and accessibility of a home, as well as community features like the availability of nearby services and amenities, affordable housing and transportation options."
Organizations like Staying in Place, a nonprofit group of volunteers, helps people age 50 and older in Woodstock, N.Y., and surrounding communities "maintain active, independent, fulfilling lives in their own homes." For $125 a year (plus $50 for each additional household member older than 50), the organization assists with paperwork and technology; free or low-cost transportation; referrals to discounted service workers; information about, and transport to, local classes and cultural and social activities; and recommendations for home health care agencies and personnel.
Other services that are free or low-cost include Meals on Wheels; friendly visiting; shopping services accessed by phone or computer; activities at senior centers; and adult day care centers.
There are also more costly commercial organizations like Home Instead Senior Care, an international network of more than 900 independently owned franchises that provide in-home nonmedical care for elders and support for their caregivers.
The organization sponsored a yearlong online study of 1,631 caregivers, 697 of whom were assisted by paid in-home nonmedical care. The study found that people receiving the additional paid care required 25 percent fewer doctor visits and were more likely to participate in adult day care.
Sadly, many aides are seriously underpaid. Home Instead, for instance, has lobbied to keep home health care aides exempt from minimum wage standards.
Henry Cisneros, former secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development and editor of the book "Independent for Life: Homes and Neighborhoods for an Aging America," points out that "Americans are aging in traditional homes, neighborhoods and communities that were designed for yesterday's demographic realities, not those of today or the future."
Cisneros advocates changing our communities so that the elderly can remain in them.
"Homes can be retrofitted, new age-appropriate homes built, existing neighborhoods reconnected, and new communities planned," he wrote.
For example, to accommodate declining eyesight, homes can be fitted with brighter bulbs, better lighting locations, easily accessed controls and nighttime guide lights.
Cisneros sees a pressing need for affordable packages of home modifications and maintenance to make residences more suitable for older people.
"A certified renovation package for aging in place could include roll-under kitchen and bathroom sinks, grab bars, curbless showers, lever faucets and door handles, a zero-step entrance, and wider doors and hallways," he wrote.
While such changes have a price tag, they may cost a lot less than current care alternatives for the elderly.
Needed changes at the community level include affordable small-scale housing and cluster housing situated in walkable communities with nearby amenities, businesses, health facilities and public transportation.
Borrowing from the design of assisted living facilities, individual dwelling units might be located around a common space that includes dining areas and social rooms.
For elders who want to be near family members yet maintain their independence, so-called accessory dwelling units with their own kitchens and bathrooms are being built near or attached to family homes.

Essay Format & Research Paper Structure Help
(Updated on September 9, 2018 by Michelle Williams)
Every essay needs to follow specific essay structure in order to be effective and flow well. There is a best practice essay structure that's recommended for all students. In order for students to understand these essay structures, it's important for students to speak with their professors about extra help or contact a tutoring/writing center if they need further clarification.
The basic rule of essay structure for all reports is that essays have three main sections: the introduction, the body, and the conclusion. Some essay structures may also require additional sections, such as a title page, reference section, and appendix.
The introduction to a report is the section in which the student introduces the topic about which he/she will be writing. In order to properly introduce the topic, the student needs to provide background information about the topic as well as key terms associated with the topic that the learner will use.
The introduction should also contain the thesis statement in either the first or the last paragraph. The thesis statement is a one-sentence statement that provides the purpose.
After the introduction, the report structure should include body paragraphs. The student can use as many body paragraphs as he/she needs in order to prove his/her point. However, a basic essay structure requires only three body paragraphs. Most high school students may follow the basic essay structure, but college students should follow a more sophisticated structure.
The conclusion appears after the body paragraphs. The conclusion should recap information that the student stated in the document and provide the student's own conclusion. The student shouldn't prevent new information in the conclusion.
The basic essay structure also follows an inverted pyramid style. In such a structure, the broadest information should be included at the beginning of the document and at the beginning of the paragraph. Specific information should be included at the end of the document or at the end of a paragraph. The essay and each paragraph, therefore, look like an inverted pyramid.
The essay structure that students should use may differ from a research paper structure. Research papers will often have many paragraphs that include information and ideas about the subject. However, it should be brief. Such compositions are usually the shortest and least formal types of academic writing.
Dissertation Format
A dissertation is an original, usually book-length research document completed by a doctoral student in the student's area of study. Such documents are typically required to follow a very specific format according to the student's department, institution, and field. Every dissertation writer should take care to investigate the specific guidelines outlined by his/her institution, as many institutions publish instructions regarding their preferred dissertation format.
Formatting dissertations is different from formatting other texts a student may write in the course of his/her graduate study because a dissertation must be presented in final, publishable form. A dissertation is considered a "finished" document and will likely be filed and published in the exact version in which the student submits it. This is the reason dissertation formats are so specific.
Though dissertation formats vary from institution to institution, most dissertation formats will be some variation of the following outline, containing:
- pages of front matter (title page, copyright page, approval page, abstract, table of contents, list of tables, and list of figures);
- the main body of the document broken into specific sections if necessary or mandated by formal requirements (see below);
- a comprehensive list of references;
- an appendix;
- the writer's curriculum vitae.
Almost every report will include similar pages in the front matter, as detailed above. Of these, the most important and standardized element is the abstract, which is a brief summary of the paper's study and results. All abstracts should be less than 350 words. This is a key element of dissertation format that's mandated by nearly every institution and discipline because this is the word limit determined by research databases that publish dissertations.
The format of the paper's main body is largely determined by whether the thesis is a critical analysis or a research study. A critical analysis dissertation is typically completed in the humanities, and examines a text or theory in an original way. The main body of these types of reports can typically take a format of the author's choosing. A research study dissertation, on the other hand, usually follows a standard, five-chapter dissertation format, consisting of
- an introduction of the research problem and a statement of the study's purpose;
- a review of existing literature on the topic;
- a methodology section explaining the study's procedure;
- a results chapter outlining the study's findings;
- a discussion chapter that suggests the implications of the results.
The references section of a college report should be a comprehensive listing of every study or text cited in the body.
An appendix is a section for presenting supplementary materials or materials that would hinder the reading of the report if placed in the body of the text.
The student's curriculum vitae is usually the final section.
Research Paper Layout
When it comes time for students to write research papers, there's a certain layout with which all students need to be familiar. Even though some students choose not to follow the recommended research paper layout, learners should at least know what it's so that they will know what standard formats they're breaking.
A research paper layout basically has several different parts. Each part should be unique and contains original information. Each part also has its own purpose, so students should be mindful of that purpose when they go to work on their own paper layouts.
The first part of a college report should be the cover page. Depending on the style of the report, the cover page layout might vary. There are two different standard styles for research papers, including MLA style and APA style. Both are very popular in academic settings. A professor should tell students which style he/she prefers.
Next, some college report layouts include a table of contents, especially if the project is long. The table of contents should include a page number for each section of the document.
After the table of contents, many professors require that students include an abstract of the document. The abstract should contain a one-paragraph summary of the entire reference project. Even long reports should be summarized in one sentence.
The body of the document comes next. The research paper layout for the body contains three main sections: introduction, body paragraphs, and the conclusion. The introduction will include the thesis statement and background information about the topic. The body paragraphs will each contain new information about the document. Finally, the conclusion will contain information that the student has discovered during the research. The conclusion ties together all of the body paragraphs.
After the body section of the report layout, the student should include references and an appendix. Many students also include an acknowledgement section, especially for longer and more formal research papers, such as dissertations.
Research paper layouts are different than layouts for reports. An essay is a shorter body of work that requires fewer extra sections, such as the abstract, cover page, and references. Many academic papers can also be completed in just one or two pages, especially short essays for a class. However, a research paper is a longer, formal document that a student creates in order to introduce facts and information. Therefore, there's more formality to the report layout than there's to many other types of academic writing.
Book Report Form
The form of a work of writing is work's "structure." Form refers to the way a composition is organized and put together. Most genres of writing have a general form that's typical for that genre. Such assignments are no different. Book report form is comprised of a loose, three-part structure: an introduction, a summary, and an analysis. Like all writing forms, novel critique forms are flexible, so these three parts will be different depending on the writer and the subject.
Book report form is similar to essay form, in that essay form also has three primary components: an introduction, a development, and a conclusion. In addition, novel critiques will typically have the appearance of essays, in that the three components aren't separated into individual blocks of text, but are one, continuous text in which the paragraphs transition logically and smoothly from one idea to the next. Furthermore, novel critiques have the same purpose as essays: to inform and comment and, sometimes, to persuade. The primary difference between book report form and essay form is that the former is more bottom-heavy, meaning the largest and most significant aspects come in the third component, the analysis. In essays, the largest and most significant component of the text is the development section, which is in the middle.
The three primary elements of a novel review—the introduction, summary, and analysis—must be present in every story review. However, the exact execution of these will vary. Some books will require a multi-paragraph introduction, while other, more simple texts will require only a one-paragraph introduction. The same is true for the summary section. The analysis section should always be more than one paragraph, as the analysis will consist of many different ideas that should be explored in an in-depth way. Thus, some novel review forms will have one paragraph for the introduction, one for the summary, and then three or more for the analysis. Other novel review forms will have two paragraphs for the introduction, two (or more) for the summary, and five or more for the analysis. There is no exact prescription for organizing book report form; the writer must decide for him/herself how detailed the information needs to be. This is usually determined by the length and complexity of the book. A book report on a book completed primarily for a high school audience will be much shorter than a 400-page history monograph on the Spanish Civil War.
No matter how many paragraphs each section is, it's important to remember that in appearance and fluidity, a novel critique should resemble an essay. This means that the document shouldn't move abruptly from one section to the next, but should transition smoothly in the same way that a writer would transition smoothly from one paragraph to the next. Though a book report has a form, that form is intended to create a complete and continuous whole. Students should strive to create this type of thorough, continuous text when completing their documents.
Thesis Layout
The specific design and presentation of a thesis is referred to as the "thesis layout." A thesis document is a long text composed by a student in the final phase of his/her degree study. Theses are completed by undergraduate seniors, master's degree students, and sometimes by doctoral students. Thesis layouts vary depending on the type of project the student is writing, and are often determined by a student's department or institution.
The structural aspect of thesis layouts will vary between the disciplines. For examples, a document in the sciences will typically follow an exact format dictated by the student's department. This format will require the student to include certain sections and headings in the document and order them in a particular way. These types of thesis layouts will be largely inflexible, because such thesis layouts have typically been designed to follow a standard format accepted in the sciences. Thesis formats in the humanities, however, will often allow students much freedom in document structure. This is because research in the humanities often doesn't follow the scientific method. Therefore, it's not necessary for the thesis layout to provide the reader with as many specific details of the study's design and execution.
Aside from structure, a significant component of all thesis layouts is presentation. Most institutions and departments have very specific guidelines as to the margins and spacing of theses. This is because most institutions print and bind theses and store them in the institution's library. Therefore, a specific layout is desired to accommodate both printing and uniformity. Typically, an institution or department will publish very specific criteria detailing the correct thesis layout for each section of a student manuscript. For instance, such criteria will detail the appropriate manner of presentation for the front matter. The front matter consists of any pages that come before the main body of the document itself. Often, this will include a title page, an approval page, a copyright page, an acknowledgements page, a dedication page, an abstract, and a table of contents. Each of these pages must conform to a very specific layout that mandates certain margins, spacing, and organization. Thesis layout guidelines for the main body will also set forth the appropriate heading formats, spacing, and pagination the document should have. Departments will also provide information regarding the correct layout of the references page and any appendices included with the project. Students should follow all of this criteria exactly so that their project is accepted by their institution.
Term Paper Format
There are specific formats that students need to follow for every formal academic document that they create. These specific formats are important to acknowledge because they have been completed in the first place in order to help students effectively communicate information that's related to the type of assignment that they're writing. All students will need to understand what a term paper format is at some point during their careers.
A student will need to complete a term paper in order to communicate information that he/she has researched and learned throughout an entire semester or extended period of time. Because there's a vast amount of information that a learner will need to communicate, he/she must be well-organized when finalizing the term paper's format.
The first step towards following the proper term paper format is to create a project document in the right style. There are several different report formats, which vary based on the style that a professor has required that students follow. However, the two basic term paper format styles are similar. They are MLA and APA style.
Once a student understands which of the report formats he/she will need to use, he/she should create the report document so that every page has the same format. Both MLA and APA styles use 12-point, Times New Roman font that should be double-spaced and left justified on the document. Each new paragraph should be indented and margins around the words should be set at one inch.
Next, the student needs to begin the report with the cover page. Every cover page should include the title of the work along with the student's name and the date of the work. The title page should be followed by the body of the document. Each term paper format requires that the body include an introduction. The introduction should also include a thesis statement and background information about the topic addressed.
A term paper format is different from a format for any other type of academic writing. Document formats have been completed in order to address the specific needs of term papers by helping students to organize large amounts of information in a way that's easy to understand and navigate. However, other academic documents will have formats of their own that are designed to help students meet the specific needs of those particular assignments. The formats for academic papers aren't always interchangeable.
Essay Form
Essay form is the particular structure an essay takes. Essay form isn't the same as essay content, which is the actual substance of the work—the ideas the paper is exploring and the points it's making. However, essay form will often reflect the content of a report by taking a form best suited to the articulation of the work's ideas. The exact arrangement of essay forms will vary, but all report forms will be built on a three-pronged structure that includes an introduction, a development, and a conclusion.
The introduction of a report is the first element of essay form. The introduction, as its name suggests, introduces the paper's primary idea, or thesis, which is a sentence or group of sentences that clearly asserts the main point or argument. The primary objective of the introduction is to explain and contextualize the thesis. To contextualize means to explain the thesis idea and point out the "bigger picture" by suggesting how that idea is relevant and important. The introduction of a report doesn't have to be of a particular length; however, the introduction should be about 18 the length of the entire report itself. The thesis can go anywhere in that introduction, but it's most common for it to appear toward the end of the introductory paragraph(s) so that it's contextualized before it's asserted.
The development section is the second and longest component of essay form. The thesis is explored and defended in the development. The development should always be composed of several paragraphs—one for each of the main points used to explore or defend the thesis. Each of these paragraphs should begin with what is called a topic sentence—a sentence that clearly articulates what the point of the paragraph is. For instance, in an essay on the reasons why governments should adopt policies that promote renewable energy initiatives, one of the points the author may make is that renewable energy can save governments money in the long term. This point would be explored in its own paragraph in the development section, and that paragraph would begin with a topic sentence such as "Adopting policies that promote renewable energy not only help the earth, but can also save governments money." The rest of this paragraph would explain this idea.
The conclusion is the final component of any report, and the element of essay form that many writers find most difficult. In the conclusion, the writer should avoid summarizing the points made in the document and instead attempt to bring a new insight to the topic. This doesn't mean that the conclusion should introduce an idea that's not related to the project, or an idea that needs several sentences to articulate, like the ideas presented in the development section. Rather, the conclusion should point to what can be learned or gleaned or taken away from the information presented as a whole. For instance, in the report on renewable energy mentioned above, the report may conclude by making general assessments of the importance of renewable energy, such as "Science has shown that we're in an energy crisis and need to move forward to prevent further destruction to our planet. All of Earth's inhabitants need to respond to this crisis by doing their part to ensure that Earth will be a healthy and safe place. This means that individuals need to do their best to recycle, reduce consumption, and save energy, while demanding that their governments do the same."
All essays will be different, and will present the three components of a document in varying ways, thereby developing new and innovative essay forms; however, all reports must have all three components in order to be complete and accomplished texts.
Research Paper Format
Research paper format is the particular structure and arrangement a research paper takes. Document formats differ across disciplines because research papers in varying fields have different structural and stylistic needs. In addition, research paper formats may differ according to the demands of a particular instructor or subject. However, most research paper formats can assume to take some variation of the format outlined below.
A document's format refers to the way in which the paper is organized—its structure—as well as to the way the paper is physically presented on a page. The physical presentation of an paper's format will vary depending on the particular style guidelines the paper is following—MLA, APA, Chicago, etc. These style guidelines will dictate the margins that the document should have, the system of headings it should use, the type of fonts that are appropriate, the way secondary sources should be referenced, whether or not it has a title page (and how it should be presented), the way the references page should look, and any other details about the physical appearance.
The structure of research paper format will also vary somewhat depending on the type of style guidelines the paper is following. In general, the structure will begin with a contextualizing introduction that leads up to a thesis paragraph. It progresses to a development section of several pages that presents valid research supporting the thesis statement. It ends with a conclusion that makes suggestions about the implications of what the presented research reveals about the thesis. A distinguishing characteristic of research paper format that separates it from essay format is that research paper formats must progress in a general-to-specific order. Often, writers are free to be creative in their presentation of information. This isn't the case in an analysis assignment. In order to facilitate understanding and readability, it should begin by providing background and contextualizing information, and then gradually delve into more complex ideas. This assists the report reader in following the claims, arguments, and examples made.
In certain paper styles—particularly APA—there is a specific way in which the structural element of research paper format must proceed. APA organizes research texts through a progression of specific sections, all of which are labeled with headings. Writing APA research papers therefore requires strict adherence to the format outlined in the APA's Publication Manual. Other style sheets are somewhat more flexible; this requires the writer to make his/her own decisions about the best way to organize the report to facilitate understanding and cohesion. When determining such a report format, writers should be sure to follow the general-to-specific guideline and organize their document in a way that guides the reader fluidly through the information presented in the text.
Thesis Form
Basic thesis form consists of an assertion of an opinion, interpretation, or analysis that's presented in a succinct, declarative fashion. Framing one's opinion, interpretation, or analysis in a succinct, declarative way is the challenge of hypothesis writing. Therefore, it may be helpful for writers who struggle with crafting strong theses to learn the basic elements of hypothesis format. Thesis form is simply the structure a thesis takes. There are several different thesis forms, but most thesis forms can be summarized as consisting of a statement of opinion followed by a statement asserting strong reasons for that opinion.
The first element of thesis form is the statement of opinion. This is the more important of the two components of thesis form because it's the main point of the entire paper. For example, the statement of opinion for an essay on federal income tax may be that "Federal income tax is an unnecessary burden on a country's populace and should be abandoned." To complete this thesis, there needs to be a second component added: a statement that asserts strong reasons for the opinion. To simply say that "Federal income tax is an unnecessary burden on a country's populace and should be abandoned" and then present no reason for it makes the writer unpersuasive. The second component of the thesis form is therefore necessary in order to validate the writer's hypothesis opinion and encourage the reader to keep reading. In a statement like this, for instance, the writer might add to the beginning sentence that "The money collected by the federal government could be better spent by city and state governments that have a more informed idea of the needs of their local regions
The two elements of thesis form should both be presented in a succinct, declarative way. To write a succinct hypothesis simply requires that the thesis be encapsulated within a few sentences. The depth and complexity of the thesis will determine exactly how many sentences it should include, but as a general rule, it's best to combine thoughts into between one and three sentences. If a hypothesis is longer than three sentences, it's likely that it's not as succinct as it could be.
A declarative statement is one that, as its name implies, declares. This means that it should use strong language to make its point clearly and boldly. For instance, the hypothesis "It seems like in Act IV of Hamlet, the Prince may be a little off in the head" is very weak, because all of its claims are presented in very tentative terms. Prefer a thesis that makes a clear, bold statement: "In ACT IV of Hamlet, the Prince displays signs of genuine madness."
Thesis form shouldn't be thought of as static. The form may change depending on the writer's topic and level of ability. Like any other forms, thesis forms are intended to be models and guidelines, but they're models and guidelines that are open to interpretation and innovation.
Research Paper Structure
The written components of all academic research assignments should adhere to a unique research paper structure. The structure of academic research papers is very purposeful, as different types of assignments have different functions.
Students may have to write reports for any course and any grade level. Regardless of the differences in the type of research paper, students need to follow the same research paper structure. Therefore, even though a high school-level research paper may be less format and lengthy than a graduate school research paper, both levels of research papers will have similar research paper structures.
In order to learn about the proper document structure, many learners will have a course in their high school English classes that focus on the basic fundamentals of proper document structure. These principals should apply to all papers that students will write over the course of their academic careers.
The first thing that students may learn about research paper structures is that research papers have separate sections that each serve a unique purpose. The first section to all research papers is the cover page, which is where students will state the title and their name.
Next, learners should include an introduction, which is where the learner will place the thesis statement. The introduction is essential for all research paper structures because it's how students provide background information into the topic that they're explaining in their documents.
After the introduction comes the body, which is divided into separate paragraphs. According to traditional paper structure, each paragraph should include a unique piece of information or idea. Basic research papers, such as one for a high school class, will have three simple paragraphs. However, higher-level papers will have many more paragraphs.
Finally, it should end with a conclusion, which is where the learner will reiterate important points and explain his/her findings, which should be based on information that's detailed in the body.
Every type of academic writing will have its own structure. Research paper structure is more formal and categorized than many other documents, such as a book report or paper. Therefore, if students are looking for information about research paper structures, they need to be sure that they use resources that are specific to research papers and not to other types of documents.
Book Report Format
A book report often follows a standard format that typically consists of an introductory paragraph, a few paragraphs presenting a brief summary of the book, and several paragraphs offering the writer's assessment of the book. Document format is similar to, but not the same as, critical review format. A critical review is a document that presents an analysis of a published text in such a way that the reviewer engages the ideas of the author of the text in a thorough and often academic manner. Critical reviews have very little summary. A book report also comments on the ideas presented by the book it's reporting on, but is more informative than analytic; it gives an idea of the book's main ideas and style of presentation and then comments on the writer's opinions of those ideas and that presentation.
Book report formats may differ according to the requirements of the instructor for whom the project is being composed. However, most book report formats will follow some variation of the three sections outlined above: an introduction, a summary, and an assessment.
The first major element of book report format is the introduction. The introduction of a novel critique should be one or two paragraphs. It should include the full name of the author and title, identify the book's genre—fiction, poetry, or non-fiction—and note the topic of the book. These paragraphs may also suggest the writer's overall impressions of the book. For instance, it may comment on "John Doe's compelling historical fiction novel" or "Jane Doe's exhaustive but somewhat trivial account of fly fishing." In other words, these introductory paragraphs should suggest the writer's general views of the book, but shouldn't yet attempt to explain or justify those views—that comes in the third section.
It is also standard for book report formats to include a summary of the book. The summary should be concise, but should give the reader of the story review a good idea of the book's main points (if it's nonfiction), themes (if it's poetry), or plot (if it's fiction). If the summary if of a nonfiction book, the document should give a full explanation of the book's thesis—its argument or main point—and the way it seeks to defend or prove that thesis. If the book is a volume of poetry, the document should comment on any prevailing theme or style throughout the book. If the book is fiction, the writer should give a plot summary that seeks to provide a good idea of the book's plot without giving away the ending.
The final section of book report format is a section of several paragraphs of assessment. In this section, the writer will comment on his/her interpretations of and opinions about the book. This should include commentary about both the content of the book and its presentation. This means the writer should comment critically on the author's thesis or plot, and also comment on the book's style of writing.
Essay Format
The format of an essay is the structure to which the document adheres. Essay formats vary depending on the topic and objective, but basic essay format includes an introduction with an argument, a body defending the thesis, and a conclusion that communicates the implications of what has been discovered through the course. Essay formats aren't fixed or prescriptive; they should be thought of as flexible models that can be changed according to the needs of the writer.
Essay format will always consist of an introduction, a body, and a conclusion. However, each of those sections can take many different forms. For instance, in short essays, it's common for the introduction to be only one paragraph. In papers that are five or more pages, it's common for the introduction to be several paragraphs. In these types of report formats, it's common for the first few paragraphs to contextualize the topic by presenting a true or hypothetical situation that personalizes the topic.
The body of an essay is the main section of an academic paper, and the most variable aspect of essay format. The body will defend the thesis presented in the introduction in various ways. For instance, it's common in shorter essays for each point that defends the thesis to be presented in one single paragraph. In longer essays, these points will sometimes take multiple paragraphs or even pages to develop. Sometimes, the body of the document will be organized by fully discussing one topic before moving on to another topic, and sometimes topics will be discussed alongside each other in the same paragraphs. Either way, it's common for all report formats to have the main body progress in an order that places the best or most convincing points last in the body of the text in order to build the argument in a climactic way.
The conclusion of an essay can be of varying length, but in all essay formats, the conclusion is usually significantly shorter than both the introduction and the main body sections. The conclusion should point to ways in which the main body of the document elucidates the topic. Similar to the main body of the document, the conclusion should build in significance so that the best or most convincing points are made at the end of the conclusion.
How to Format Research Papers
All students should be aware that there's a specific way to format research papers in order to make them flow well and meet the requirements of a teacher. Some ways to format research papers will be standardized, such as MLA or APA format. Other ways to format a research paper will be specific for a professor. Therefore, before students format research papers, they should always check with the professor's formatting requirements.
When it comes to ways to format research paper contents, students need to be aware that reports should follow an inverted pyramid style. In such a style, the most important information will appear at the end of the document in the conclusion. Broad information about the topic will appear in the beginning of the document in the introduction.
As a student goes to format research paper paragraphs, he/she should also keep the inverted pyramid structure in mind. The most important information should appear at the end of the paragraph and the broadest information should appear at the beginning of the paragraph.
There are many ways to format research paper information. However, learners should keep in mind that all information should be new for each paragraph within the body of the document. In the conclusion, learners should recap information and use it to form their own conclusions. The conclusion should never have new information or ideas.
In terms of the format research papers take from a construction standpoint, learners will usually need to follow APA or MLA style. Both formats require that learners write the assignment in 12-point, Times New Roman font. The lines should be double-spaced and there should be a one-inch margin around the document. Also, page numbers should appear in the upper right corner of each report on the document.
If a student needs to format research paper assignments, he/she may be able to look at examples of previous assignments to get an idea of the outline and the specific style that's required. By looking at research paper examples, learners can mimic their own paper formats.
When a student begins to format research papers, he/she needs to make sure that he/she follows a research paper format and not a format for an essay or a report. Research papers have their own unique style and format. Some larger research papers, such as dissertations and theses may have similar formats, but they will not be the same because they aren't the same kind of documents. Therefore, learners should be careful about what format they follow in order to ensure that they follow instructions properly.
Thesis Format
A thesis is a statement or group of statements asserting a text's main idea, opinion, analysis, or argument. There are countless theses and possible theses, because there are countless ideas, opinions, analyses, and arguments. However, though the content of theses can vary incredibly, most theses follow a standard thesis format. This format is essentially a statement of WHAT the main point of the text is, and HOW that point will be made. Some thesis formats are more specific than this, in that they specify a particular number of HOWs. The prime example of this is the three-point thesis, which asserts the main point of a text and then lists three ways in which that point will be explored.
Thesis format isn't the same as a thesis itself: the format is simply the arrangement the thesis takes. The thesis is the content—the actual statement of what the main point of the text is and how that point will be made.
Some students believe that proper thesis format presents the thesis in one sentence only. A thesis may be encapsulated in one sentence, but it doesn't have to be. Sometimes, thesis statements require several sentences to fully explain the what and the how. Thesis formats can even be entire (albeit brief) paragraphs.
Another common misperception about thesis formats is that there can be no interruption between sentences expressing the thesis statement. Though it would be unwise to separate the what and the how of the thesis by so much text that the reader has forgotten the what before he/she reaches the how, it's perfectly fine to have some intervening sentences between the statement of the main point of the text and the author's description of how that point will be explored. Thesis formats are flexible, so long as they contain both the main point of the text and a description of how that point will be made.
If a student wishes to follow a particular thesis format like the three-point thesis format, he/she simply needs to be certain that the description of how the main point of the text will be made includes three clearly defined elements. For instance, he/she may wish to complete a paper on the reasons why trees lose their leaves in the fall. His three-point thesis would then be "Trees lose their leave in the fall due to lack of sunlight, cooler temperatures, and changes in precipitation." This paper would then discuss each of the three elements presented.

Otherwisde, You see jumper, I see a person in one place, and then next they are about to fall into the middle of an ocean wearing a sixty ton block with the words ACNE written on it and dressed in a Tutu. It would take several months to gather all the resources, to the person playing the time controller, but to the opposing guy, it happens instantly.
If it was just space, it would most likely be alright, but time and space? Its like, someone chosing the mimic (Everything) power with the perception and continious extras slapped onto it. Seems to have a very large potential to be a *little* overpowered.
But yeah, other than that, seems like a neat character to play!

Tech News: The Google Vs. Facebook Vs. Amazon Arms Race
Plus, RIM shares hit 13-month high with hopes of strategic alliances for the company after the launch of its BB10 OS.
This column brings you the most interesting and useful business and financial commentary on the world of technology every day.
Link: Google's Q4 Earnings: Signs of an Arms Race Ahead?
"The search giant is expected to report fourth quarter earnings of $10.52 a share on revenue of $12.36 billion. However, Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) indicated last week that Wall Street figures may not account for Motorola Home as a discontinued business. That unit was sold to Arris (NASDAQ:ARRS) in the quarter. Translation: Wall Street estimates are too high."
"Simply put, Google's typically strong fourth quarter will be muddled by Motorola's (NYSE:MSI) expenses and so-so revenue. Also: Google's Motorola purchase: Was it worth it?"
"A research note from Pivotal Research highlights a few other issues. According to Pivotal analyst Brian Wieser, Google's capital expenses may indicate an infrastructure arms race between it and Facebook (NASDAQ:FB), not to mention Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and others."
Link: Verizon Sees Big Q4 Influx of 4G Activations Including 3.1M LTE iPhones
"The combination of Verizon's (NYSE:VZ) now nationwide LTE network and the holidays produced a distinctly 4G quarter for the country's biggest operator. It sold 7.3 million LTE devices the last three months of 2012, and it activated 9.8 million smartphones in total. It activated 6.2 million iPhones, about half of which were the LTE-enabled iPhone 5."
"Data usage is now swinging strongly towards LTE. Though only 23% of Verizon's 98 million retail devices have LTE radios, they now account for nearly 50 percent of all data traffic."
Link: RIM Shares Rise to 13-Month High on Strategic Review Hopes
"In an interview with a German newspaper on Monday, Thorsten Heins, the chief executive, said RIM's (NASDAQ:RIMM) ongoing review could potentially lead to the sale of its handset business or the licensing of its software to rival smartphone companies."
"'The main thing for now is to successfully introduce BlackBerry 10. Then we'll see,' Heins was reported as saying."
Link: Amazon Extends Its In-App Purchasing Option to Mac, PC, and Web-Based Games
"Amazon today announced that it would extend its in-app purchasing API to cover games for Mac, PC, and Web platforms, letting players purchase virtual currency and goods in games using its back-end billing. The move speaks to two important trends: the first is how Amazon is targeting ever more platforms, beyond Android devices, where it can generate revenue through its billing system; the second is how strong a role gaming is playing in that strategy."
Link: 3D Printer to Carve Out World's First Full-Size Building
"Sure, we've heard of 3D-printed iPhone cases, dinosaur bones, and even a human fetus -- but something massive, like a building?
"This is exactly what architect Janjaap Ruijssenaars has been working on. The Dutch native is planning to build what he calls a 'Landscape House.' This structure is two-stories and is laid out in a figure-eight shape. The idea is that this form can borrow from nature and also seamlessly fit into the outside world."
"Ruijssenaars describes it on his Web site as 'one surface folded in an endless mobius band,' where 'floors transform into ceilings, inside into outside.'"

Grants of armorial bearings are honours stemming from the Canadian Crown. They provide recognition for contributions made by Canadian individuals and corporate bodies in Canada and elsewhere.
All Canadian citizens or corporate bodies (municipalities, schools, societies, associations, institutions, etc.) may petition to receive a grant of armorial bearings.
Three categories of armorial bearings can be requested: coats of arms, flags and badges. A coat of arms is centred on a shield and may be displayed with a helmet, mantling, a crest and a motto (see explanation of terminology, p. 4). A grant of supporters is limited to corporate bodies and to some individuals in specific categories.

While I was day working in Marion County I heard of a new outfit that was just getting started in the cow business and that usually meant a lot of work. I had also heard the owner was a Cuban who had been treasurer under Cuban dictator Fulgencio Bautista and had got out of Cuba ahead of Fidel Castro and brought $7 million with him.
Levy County home owners, when Gov. Scott was campaigning, he promised to bring 80,000 new jobs to Florida. What he really meant was he was going to bring 80,000 cows to Florida to finish off the springs and rivers.
My wife and I just completed another delightful week-long Thanksgiving stay in this lovely community.

Our Minnesota Twins are a bad team mired in a miserable season, but rookie center fielder Aaron Hicks put on a tutorial for Carly Rae Jepsen in the first game of the three-game series that the Twins played against the Yankees in New York just before the All-Star break. On Friday night, Hicks made an incredibly athletic throw from deep center field to nail Vernon Wells at third base on what turned out to be a double that Wells reasonably thought he could stretch into a triple.
It was raining in the Bronx, so the field and the ball were wet when Hicks chased down the ball as it caromed off the wall. As one commenter explained: "Hicks was standing — rough guess — on the Cross Bronx Expressway when he picked up the ball."
After the game Hicks explained to the Star Tribune that he was just trying to hit the cutoff man, but the wet ball slipped out of his hand. Overthrowing the cutoff man, Hicks threw the ball some 300 feet on the fly from deep center to third. The Twins lost the game 2-0, but improbably picked up the second and third games of the series.
In all fairness, I should add that Jepsen could probably give Hicks a tutorial on batting.

WESTPORT, Conn. — A group of more than 500 people sang Westport's way into the Guinness Book of World Records on Wednesday night, setting a new world record for the most people caroling door to door.
A total of 502 people officially participated in the "One Voice" caroling event organized by the Unitarian Church of Westport. Although the group started out with 545 carolers, only those who participated from start to finish were counted by Guinness.
In addition to setting a record, the event was a fundraiser for the Lily Sarah Grace Fund , a nonprofit that supports arts programs in underfunded elementary schools. The fund was created in memory of Lily, Sarah and Grace Badger, the three sisters who died in last year's Christmas Day house fire in Stamford.
With flashlights and lyrics in hand, the festively dressed carolers — conducted by Weston music teacher Erik Paul — traveled throughout the Compo Beach area, singing "We Wish You a Merry Christmas," "Deck the Halls," Rudolph, the Red Nosed Reindeer," Let it Snow" and "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town." The group visited 14 homes, where they sang two songs each.
Two adjudicators from the Guinness World Records were on hand to certify the record. According to John Corcoran, one of the Guinness officials, various requirements needed to be met to set the record.
For example, the group needed to sing at a minimum of 10 homes; had only five minutes to get to the next house as soon as they finished at one house; couldn't sing the same song at two consecutive houses; and could visit a maximum of five houses per block. Because it was a new record, a minimum of 250 participants was needed.
"There are a lot of guidelines, but most importantly, we want people to have fun," said Corcoran. "This is something these people won't forget, especially the kids here. It's a memory that will last a lifetime."
Once the caroling ended, Guinness adjudicator Danny Girton Jr. validated the numbers. When it was official, he presented Jim Keenan, the event's lead organizer, with a certificate.
This is the second record set in Westport this year. Staples High School put Westport in the record book this spring for having the most sets of twins in one academic class. It shares the record with two other schools.

To this day, Jim Morrison is one of the most significant frontmen to grace the rock stage. His band, The Doors, was unpredictable, mysterious, thrilling — even frightening.
In his new book,The Doors: A Lifetime of Listening to Five Mean Years, music writer Greil Marcus explores how the rock group came to define an era yet remain relevant today.
Even after all these years, people are still drawn to the band. It's definitely because of the music, Marcus tells weekends on All Things Considered guest host Rachel Martin, and, of course, Morrison himself. Yet what really made the band magnetic, he says, was something deeper.
"There was a sense of dread all through their music," Marcus says. "A sense of running away from anything that smelled of a happy ending, because that was false — they caught that current that everyone felt under their skin."
"L.A. Woman," "Hello, I Love You," "Light My Fire" -- the music of The Doors is as popular today as it was in the 1960s when the band was filling clubs up and down the California coast. The Doors were unpredictable, mysterious, even frightening, and audiences couldn't get enough.
Music writer Greil Marcus was there, too, witnessing the band's epic rise and fall. He's now written a new book. It's called "The Doors: A Life of Listening to Five Mean Years." I spoke with Greil Marcus and asked him what draws people back to The Doors after so many years. And he said, sure, it's the music. And, yes, it's Jim Morrison. But what really makes the band magnetic, even still, is something deeper.
GREIL MARCUS: There was a sense of dread all through their music, a sense of shying away or walking away or running away from anything that smelled of a happy ending because that was going to be false. It was going to be sentimental. And in these times of assassination, of war, of riots all through American cities, they caught that current as something that everybody felt under their skin. The argument that was going on in the music was, look out. Watch your back. Be ready to run at any moment.
MARTIN: I want to play a little bit of an example of that idea, of that theme, of the darkness really.
JIM MORRISON: (Singing) This is the end, beautiful friend. This is the end, my only friend, the end of our elaborate plans, the end of everything that stands, the end...
MARTIN: The Doors use that space a lot. They take advantage of silence and pauses between notes.
MARCUS: You know, listening to that passage you just played, those opening moments from "The End," listening to Robby Krieger's very, very few notes on his guitar, that says something's about to happen. It's not going to be over quickly. And you may not be exactly the same as you were when you started to listen. That's a fearsome prospect, and it's also incredibly attractive. Who's not going to open that door?
MORRISON: (Singing) Waiting for the summer rain, yeah.
MARTIN: In the book, you do, to a certain degree, tell the story, tell the narrative of the band, but a lot of this book is just your meditation on the music itself and thinking about these songs. One of the songs you talk about in your book is "Mystery Train." What was Morrison's approach to this song?
MARCUS: This is an old Elvis Presley song, and this is a song that real Elvis connoisseurs have always loved, and The Doors loved this song. It starts out with a wonderful clickity-clack train song.
MORRISON: (Singing) Sixteen coaches long.
MARCUS: And then Jim Morrison, it sounds like he's just jumped on the train, looked around, doesn't like what he sees, and he starts singing this song in a slobbering messy voice...
MORRISON: (Singing) Well, that mean old train took my baby. He's gone.
MARCUS: ...as if this isn't the train he wanted to be on.
MORRISON: (Singing) Train, train, coming down the line.
MARCUS: And in this case, you find Morrison drifting through the song, getting off the train, getting back on the train, and other songs begin to come into his mind, and moments come where suddenly he is on the train and he begins to shout.
MORRISON: (Singing) Whoo. (Unintelligible). Woo-hoo.
MARCUS: The band finally is coming up behind him, again, with this clickity-clack and the clickity-clack, and you don't want this to end. You don't want the train ever to reach its destination, but finally, it does. And they slow the song down. You feel the train slowing down. And they go right up to the railhead. Jim Morrison sings the lines with which he began the song...
MORRISON: (Singing) People get ready.
MARCUS: People get ready for this train to glory, and that wasn't the train you just rode on. You rode on a train of confusion, of desire, of fear. That wasn't what the ride was about at all.
MARTIN: I'm speaking with Greil Marcus about his new book. It's called "The Doors: A Life of Listening to Five Mean Years." What changed for you now as you listened to this music after spending so much time with it?
MARCUS: You know, spending a lot of time with this music, for me, meant going to their shows in 1967, playing their records when they came out, but really hearing the music on the radio over the years, and a lot more so over the last five, six, seven, maybe 10 years than ever before. "Roadhouse Blues" and "L.A. Woman," two of their greatest recordings, were not hits when they were released in 1970 and 1971. You didn't hear them on the radio then. You hear them on the radio now. These are songs that became hits over 40 years.
MARTIN: What was it particularly about "L.A. Woman" that has given it such staying power? I mean, you hear it all the time today still.
MORRISON: (Singing) I see your hair is burning...
MARCUS: It's the sense of ordinary everyday life. It really does have the feeling of somebody walking down the street talking to people, talking to himself...
MORRISON: (Singing) If they say I never loved you, you know they are a liar. Driving down your freeway...
MARCUS: You know, maybe a little addled, maybe a little crazy, but someone who's just full of exuberance and wants to tell everybody about it.
MARTIN: I wonder if through this examination, this very close look at this music, if you discovered new things.
MARCUS: Yeah. You play a song again and again and again. You let it drift past you. You turn - listen to it as hard as you can and you never know what's going to hit you. And what I hear as the whole of the music is a feeling that we don't know what the next day is going to feel like. We don't know if there's going to be a next day. And so you better say what you mean. You better tell what you're afraid of. You better do it right now.
MARTIN: In 1971, The Doors' lead singer, Jim Morrison, flew to Paris, and he died there, but all kinds of questions lingered then, even today, about the specifics of his death. And, you know, it shows how he became this star of mythic proportions. Is it possible to divorce the power of this music from Jim Morrison?
MARCUS: When I listen to this music, I hear someone who's alive and who's struggling and who's trying to get something across. I hear someone who's beset with confusion and moments of really uncanny clarity, somebody struggling to say what he wants to say, and so many times succeeding.
MARTIN: That's Greil Marcus. He's the author of the book "The Doors: A Life of Listening to Five Mean Years." Greil, thanks so much for talking with us. We really appreciate it.
MARCUS: It was a real pleasure. Thank you.

Since 1993, The Law Offices of Nora Staum has been helping clients throughout Florida to obtain the social security disability benefits and/or supplemental security income (SSI) they need and deserve.
We handle claims from initial application, reconsideration, before the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) hearing, the Appeals Council and through the federal courts.
The Social Security Administration denies most claims on initial application. That's about 66 percent in Florida. Many disabled people with valid claims are denied and many give up and do not bother to file an appeal.
Don't give up. One of the most important things a person can do to win social security disability, supplemental security income, disabled child's or disabled widow or widower's benefits is to simply file all appeals on time within the 60 days allowed.
There is a good chance of winning your case even if you have been denied.
NOSSCR (National Organization of Social Security Claimant's Representatives) estimates that a represented claimant is about twice as likely to be approved for social security disability benefits compared to an unrepresented claimant. An attorney knowledgeable about the social security disability process can advise you about the criteria for receiving benefits, can guide you through the complicated and bureaucratic process, and present the medical evidence, including opinions from your doctors.
We understand how frustrating the process can be for a claimant who cannot work and their claim is dragging on and on while your bills pile up.
