Only a day after having a brain tumor surgically removed, Matt Tifft, Camping World Truck Series and NASCAR XFINITY driver, tweeted a video.
In the video, Tifft chuckles while saying his head feels like someone drilled a hole in it, and it is painful, but the surgery went well.
During the Subway Firecracker 250 at Daytona International Speedway, Tifft was scheduled to drive No. 18. However, it was announced earlier in the week that Tifft, age 20, would be unable to start since he would be undergoing surgery in order to remove a low-grade glioma in his brain.
Instead, David Ragan was the driver for the No.18, taking it to the pole and keeping Tifft's name over the door. Ragan placed 21st.
Tifft has expressed his eagerness, both pre and post-surgery, to be back behind the wheel with a "perfect health" diagnosis very soon.
Feel free to like the article and check out how NASCAR issued a team penalty and Daniel Hemrick finished on the verge of career-best.

Boy did the snow make a difference. Great shot.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I went to a soccer game Sat and it was so hot that I walked to the little creek below the soccer field and that little guy was just sitting there posing, luckly I had been taking pictures of my Grand and had my camera with me.
Wow! Different.
Good grief – the difference between this and the next is startling.

"All Star Western" # 0 updates the origin of Jonah Hex for the latest incarnation of the DC Universe once and for all. The stunning part is that origin is remarkably similar to the bits and pieces you may have seen or read elsewhere. The critical components are all there: Jonah is born, his dad's an ass, Jonah is left for the Apaches to do with as they please, gets himself some Confederate clothes and receives the mother of all facial disfigurements.
Although these are all familiar bits to seasoned "Jonah Hex" readers, Jimmy Palmiotti and Justin Gray repackage the details and change the pace in such a manner as to deliver a story that feels new as a zero issue should. The writing duo presents an amazing amount of exposition in narrative form, seeding the details of Jonah Hex's formative years along the story of his personal history. Palmiotti and Gray construct Jonah Hex in such a fashion as the reader has the option to find sympathy or not. Hex certainly experiences an amazing rash of unfortunate events, but one has to wonder if those events shaped his personality or were caused by it. Whichever the cause or effect, the end result is a character that is certainly one of the more interesting and storied legends of the DC Universe.
Time and location are marked by ornate postscripts throughout the story as devised by Travis Lanham. Those markers identify where the next scene occurs and mark the passage of time from one significant event in Hex's life to the next. They also add mesquite flavor to the gritty, harsh reality that artist Moritat (with an assist from Pia Guerra) and colorist Mike Atiyeh depict in the pages of "All Star Western" #0. This isn't a happy story by any account and the visuals certainly reflect that. Atiyeh's wide, balanced color selections help drive the mood of the story and blend nicely with Moritat's Joe Kubert-influenced scratchy drawings. This combination merges nicely to oblige my expectations of Western comics.
"All Star Western" #0 successfully delivers the story of Jonah Hex with all of the main components of the regular series in place. In that sense, this issue serves up a nice appetizer for readers to come back for more. I'll admit to being a lapsed reader as I tried to trim away titles in order to maintain a healthier comics budget, but this issue has given me enough of a reason to come back next month and plunk down another four bucks for another Jonah Hex tale. If this issue is any indication, I won't be disappointed.

The traditional partnership structure of venture capital firms can pose unique challenges in achieving maximum individual and group effectiveness. Partnership teams are tasked to map strategies; make critical investment decisions; and track progress of investments drawing principally on their own talents, instincts, and insights as individual professionals. The absence of designated singular leaders such as those found in hierarchical organizations makes it difficult to address critical internal organizational and behavioral issues such as interpersonal communication, open feedback exchange, and assessment of individual partner performance.
The Strayer Consulting Group has evolved a set of consulting services especially geared to venture consulting partnerships.

Coming to a TV near you
Production has wrapped on a new 14 part TV series that I scored. Canadian Made was created by Kevin McMahon and Primitive Features and will broadcast on Friday nights at 8pm on History Television starting June 1. It's an entertaining look at great Canadian inventions over the years, and hilariously narrated by Rick Miller. My favorite episode explores the ground breaking musical instruments invented by the under appreciated genius Hugh Le Caine.

NIWeek 2011
It's almost time for NIWeek 2011!
I've looked over the Session Catalog for this year and there are so many great choices that I'm having a hard time narrowing down my list of recommended sessions. So I'll limit myself to the sessions relating to user interface design with LabVIEW.
First on my list is, of course, my session, co-presented with Simon Hogg: Customizing NI LabVIEW Controls and Indicators, Tuesday (August 2) at 4:45 PM in 13A/B.
You're probably thinking, "Sounds like things I've heard a million times before," right? I guarantee not! Simon and I will be demonstrating some secret, unpublished features of the Control Editor that are new in LabVIEW 2011. They're not quite ready for "prime time," but we're willing to let a select few start using them!
Other sessions that I recommend include:
- Building Quality NI LabVIEW User Interfaces, Tuesday (August 2) at 1:00 PM in 13A/B. My colleagues Nitin Thomas and Simon Hogg will cover the broader topic of user interface design in LabVIEW, skipping over customizing controls since that will be covered in my session.
- Flexible GUI for Vibration Analysis with NI LabVIEW, Tuesday (August 2) at 2:15PM in 11B. Jeremy Weiss from Mechanical Solutions, Inc. will talk about making UIs designed for rotating machinery vibration troubleshooting, including the usage of tree controls and subpanels.
- User Interface Tips 2.0, Wednesday (August 3) at 4:45 PM in 13A/B. Jonathan Cohn from Bloomy Controls will provide his tips for making the best user interfaces.
- Introducing NI LabVIEW 2011, Tuesday (August 2) and Wednesday (August 3) at 10:30AM in 13A/B. See all the new features of LabVIEW 2011, including a new style of front panel controls!
Did I miss any sessions you think should be on this list? Please post them in the comments!
2 Comments
Thanks for the Heads Up — my list of "Wanna See" and yours largely overlap! Can you noodge the people in charge of the "Make My NI Week Schedule" application to get it up so we can start to "fill in the blanks" and resolve the conflicts?

I recently wrote about a discussion with Ingrid on this subject, and I ended with the question:
"So now I have these two pieces of information dealing with the same issue, one qualitative, on quantitative. Which one is the most memorable, most true, most relevant?"Since I have no background at all in the study of this distinction between quantitative and qualitative evidence, I am slowly re-discovering the literature on this subject, in my own, rather passively, Google Reader driven, way. There is probably some great literature on this, both quantitative and qualitative, but given my personal preferences, this article that recently appeared in PNAS (Motivating voter turnout by invoking the self by Bryan et al.), has a clue to answering one of these three questions. In a real experiment, they asked potential voters how importing voting is for them, but with two experimental conditions:
"In each experiment, participants completed one of two versions of a brief survey. In one version, a short series of questions referred to voting using a self-relevant noun (e.g., "How important is it to you to be a voter in the upcoming election?"); in the other, questions that were otherwise identical referred to voting using a verb (e.g., "How important is it to you to vote in the upcoming election?")."Based on previous research:
"So we hypothesized that using a predicate noun (e.g., "to be a voter") as opposed to a verb (e.g., "to vote") to refer to participation in an upcoming election would create a greater interest in and likelihood of performing that behavior—registering to vote and voting. If this hypothesis were confirmed, it would be evidence for the more general theoretical idea that simply framing a future behavior as a way to claim a desired identity can motivate that behavior."This simple difference in three words ("to be voter" versus "to vote") increased the actual, measured, voting by more than 10%! Now if we combine this amazing result with an assumption that it is easier for somebody to self-identify with a story about somebody else versus a graph or a statistic, I think that the starting hypothesis to the question "Which one is the most memorable?", is the qualitative piece of information. Whether this makes it also more true, and consequently more relevant, is still a completely different matter.
The results of this study also have other implications, though. One of the basic tenets in course design are learning objectives (see for instance this document from the University of Guelph). I advocates SMART (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and timely) verbs. The document already stresses the importance of writing them from the student's perspective, which makes it easier for the students to self-identify with them, but how about a study that randomly divides a class in two, and one half of the students get the learning objectives with action verbs, the other half with action nouns. Would this also result in a 10% increase in learner outcomes?

I stand here before you;
Singing words of worship;
To honor you, to love you;
But my heart isn't in it.
I listen to the pastor talking;
But the message falls on deaf ears.
I'm numb to you;
Numb because you let this happen.
I kneel here before you;
Tears streaming down my face;
Why, God, why did this happen?
Why did he hurt me?
Why does it hurt so much?
My heart is bleeding and broken;
Waiting for your healing touch;
But I don't see you, I don't feel you.
I fall here before you;
Completely broken; Help me, Lord;
I surrender everything to you:
The shame, the guilt, my broken heart,
My wounded body, my stubbornness, and my pain.
Come fill me, Lord;
Step in and break down the walls inside me;
I'm crying out to you with tears pouring down my face;
Please, heal me, love me, help me, touch me.
I sit here before you;
Your blood has covered me;
You've touched me and held me;
Comforted me and guided me;
It has taken time;
But you're mending my heart.
How could I have doubted?
You've forgiven and shown compassion;
Thank you, Father;
For your love has conquered the Devil's once more.

The Five Minute Interview – PolyvoreOctober 2, 2013
This article is one in a series of quick-hit interviews with companies using Apache Cassandra and/or DataStax Enterprise for key parts of their business. For this interview, we spoke with Joshua Yuen, Senior Software Engineer at Polyvore.
DataStax: What does Polyvore do?
Joshua: Polyvore is a new way to discover and shop for things you love. Visitors come to Polyvore to curate products, create sets, discover and buy lifestyle items.
DataStax: How are you using Cassandra?
Joshua: First for document oriented storage of image metadata and storage of messages/comments. We also make use of the TTL to store user stream information. We use Datastax Enterprise to store time series data and run MapReduce on Hadoop on top of Cassandra.
DataStax: What was the motivation for using Cassandra and what other technologies was it evaluated against?
Joshua: Motivation for using Casandra was: no single point of failure, easy setup and linear scalability. The other technology we evaluated against was MongoDB. We tried to run MapReduce on MongoDB, it was not as easy as DSE.
DataStax: Can you share some insight on what your deployment looks like? (Hosted in the Cloud or your own DC, how many DCs, what kind of servers, SSDs or spinning disks, # of nodes, # of clusters, how much data? etc.)
Joshua: We host in our own DC. We have 2 main clusters, 12 nodes, SSD and around 8 TB of data.
DataStax: What's your favorite part about Apache Cassandra?
Joshua: We have been using Cassandra since 0.6, it is fascinating to see how much it has been evolved.
DataStax: What would you like to see out of Apache Cassandra in future versions?
Joshua: I would like to see improvement on doing large range queries.
DataStax: What's your experience with the Apache Cassandra community?
Joshua: It's great that there is so much information, from administration, data modeling, different use cases, and more.

Purpose of trailer?
Extracts from this document...
One purpose of the Scooby Doo trailer is of course, to advertise the exciting, thrilling film. It's meant to get you hooked to your screen like a fish to the rod. It shows you the main character, making you think 'I wish I was him!' What could the genre be? A crazy comedy? Horrifying horror? Or a sincere sci-fi? The comedy will make you laugh your self till you're on the floor screaming for mercy. Whereas the sci-fi and horror will have you gripping your pillowcase, screaming and cheering at all the exhilarating points. The silhouettes are thunderous lights, making you feel timid. They create monstrous shapes and forms. The full moon even makes you think that Scooby Doo is Batman! The camera shots are low on Batman to make him look big and heroic, just like when the camera is gliding through the haunted house like a spirit, is staying low to make you feel small. ...read more.
I'm sure this even works for adults. I mean, I'm sure that not everyone can resist the temptation of watching the spooky trailer all the way to the end. One reason for this is the intense musical back round and the eerie sound affects such s the fluttering black bats and the creaking window. There is also a scary voice over by a mysterious man. You feel like you can't ignore it. The camera movements in the trailer mislead you greatly. They twist your mind into thinking you are a floating, stalking spirit hunting something down, but are you really? Well that is one thing you shall never know. The camera is set at a very low angle wondering through the corridor making you feel small. ...read more.
I believe that the real overall target audience is 10-13 year olds. This is because the trailer isn't too scary or silly for them. The trailer could have made them laugh out loud with the surprising ending. I would think that at the point where the CD scratches the audience will have discovered that the film isn't really a horror. This is where I realised it was a comedy. Personally the trailer totally mislead me now that I look back on it. I'm sure I feel the same about the trailer as most other people would have...'confused, amused and kind of disappointed.' The reason I felt slightly disappointed was because when I saw Scooby-Doo's face I was like 'Oh, it's only Scooby-Doo?' But that feeling soon went and I found it funny. So, overall I think that the purpose of the Scooby-Doo trailer is to get the audience hooked and gaping to see the film. The trailer done this to me. What about you? ...read more.

In an industry where individuality hinges on architectural excellence, innovation is being creative as well as original. Responding to a young generation who shares an enthusiasm for innovative architecture, developers are stepping out of the box with exciting experiences. Grove at Lake Fields, Sungai Besi was completed in mid 2014, followed by The Capers at Sentul East in end 2014. Both developments offer a choice of aspirational lifestyles demanded by today's market. While some yearn for space and spacious homes, others are drawn to efficiency of space in modern urban spaces.
We closed what had been a year of contrasts for the property market in Malaysia - which endured a pre-election period of investor caution and rebounded in the second half when confidence returned. Having survived a challenging year that was, and with 2014 being again time for regulatory adjustments within the industry, will the momentum of 2013's better (second) half transition into the new year? That's the million dollar question.

Your skin is the largest organ of the body, and standard techniques for treating and performing large skin grafts takes weeks, even months. Patients who do die from these procedures die because of infection while waiting for the skin to heal. If you could treat skin in, let's say, a week, that number of deaths from these procedures would be drastically lower.

Huddersfield 5 - 1 Wrexham. Andy Booth may have scored again but Leon Knight was Town's main man as he scored twice to finish off Wrexham at the McAlpine.
Martin Chalk had earlier given Wrexham a shock lead after 25 dull minutes with a well taken free kick which he drilled past Martyn Margetson's outstretched right hand after Darren Ferguson elected to touch off the ball.
The goal sparked off Town's recovery and it began after Danny Schofield was tripped by Willie Miller in the penalty area after a great run down the left.
The referee checked with his linesman before awarding the penalty which John Thorrington coolly sidefooted home past the left hand of Christian Rogers.
Wrexham had held the lead for for 3 minutes and they might have gone behind after 38 minutes when Leon Knight, an increasing threat with his pace and flair, was coming back from the byline and looked to have tricked his way past Darren Ferguson before the Dragons playmaker brought him down in the box.
The referee had already booked Ferguson and opted to ignore claims for a second penalty from most of the McAlpine.
The game was delicately balanced going into the second half and, as the second half started, Town started brilliantly with a goal almost straight away from Chris Holland who slid a left footed shot past Rogers after Mattis' intelligent pass.
Rogers had to go off injured soon after this and, despite a short period of Wrexham pressure followed by a lengthy drama when Steve Jenkins sustained a groin injury but wasn't immediately taken off, the Terriers finished off the game through Leon Knight.
The diminuitive striker struck twice in two minutes in the second half to finish off the quickly subsiding Dragons.
His first, on 63 minutes, was a well taken rising shot which almost pierced the back of sub keeper David Walsh's net after he ran onto an Andy Booth flick-on and struck it well with his left boot.
Around a minute later, Knight was dancing in front of the Kilner Bank after picking up on John Thorrington's pacy cross and putting the ball past Walsh again.
Knight could have had his own hat trick but for a fantastic save from Walsh after a great scissors kick.
Leon Knight got a thoroughly deserved standing ovation as he left the field with 10 minutes to go but the entertainment was not over as Andy Booth made it 5-1 after latching on to a Chris Holland cross after the Town midfielder had combined well with Danny Schofield down the left.

Recently, I commented on a post by Glenn Roberts, where he was talking about the value (or lack thereof) of teams in real estate. I had such a good time crafting my response that I thought I had enough for a post of my own (isn't that how many good posts are born??). Thanks to Glenn for the inspiration!!
For a little over a year I've been working in a partnership. 50/50. Right down the middle. Share and share alike. Mi casa es su casa. Mi esposo es su esposo! You get the gist!
Our business has been thriving. Would it work for everyone, definitely not!! Does it work for us... absolutely! Why? Here's my top 6 reasons I work with Gail...
6. Super Service! That's what we provide! We cover each other and our clients love that they can ALWAYS get one of us! We don't just partner with each other, we partner with our clients too! We keep things personal by attending all our inspections and closings... heck we've even done our fair share of packing, babysitting and yes, even walking the dogs!
5. Accountability! We answer to each other. Constantly! Leads don't fall through the cracks. Ideas don't fall by the wayside. Dreams become reality. We are supportive and thrive of the feedback we give each other... both positive and negative! Together we reach for the stars. We focus on the future of our business. I couldn't imagine working with someone short sighted.
4. Greater Bang for our Buck! We don't partner to spend less money... in fact, we spend MORE money on marketing our listings and our "brand" development (TheRealtorLadies.com). We don't limit ourselves, they way we would have to if going it alone.
3. Two Spheres for the Price of One! Two agents mean more opportunities... more blogging, more networking, more open houses, more floor time, more past clients, etc.
2. Good Cop, Bad Cop! We got this down to a science... and it really comes kind of easy. Of course, it doesn't hurt that by nature I'm naughty and Gail is nice! I deliver "the news" and Gail provides the comfort!
1. We Laugh. Everyday! Hearty Laughter. Deep down in our belly laughter. Wet your pants kind of laughter. Truly enjoying what we do shows in every aspect of our business. Our clients enjoy our partnership almost as much as we do! At some point in every transaction a client will ask... "How long have you two been married??"
"Demand no more out of your partner

A crisp white colour scheme pervades the house with splashes of colour to lift each room. Crittall glass is used to great effect in dividing the kitchen from the living area without visually closing one off from the other entirely. The central floor features a fun hang out for teenage children, again, white pervades but with bold punches of red and a pair of Eero Aarnio's iconic "Bubble" chairs in the midst.

In the little gaps between large scale oak framing work, there's still smaller projects coming out of the workshop in Falmouth, Cornwall. I had long wanted to make a garden bench along these designs, from large clean slabs of green oak with wedged through tenons. When an old family friend recently married, I had my opportunity... Best wishes Jon and Viki.

Living Room Linkway
The first of my 2 oak framing projects on the Roseland, Cornwall over the autumn, this linkway between old cottage and new extension features wedged dove-tailed through tenons in the collars for added strength. Difficult to raise by hand but it still all went together nicely in 2 days. As always, I look forward to going back when its all finished and getting better photos.

Check this detailed Review by Wrap You in Love
Designed and Made in the Czech Republic
Material: Cotton 40% Polyester 56% Spandex 4%
Wash Inside Out
*Please note, that Angel wings Hoodie IS NOT a baby carrier nor a sling or a wrap. It has been designed to be worn over a baby carrier, or a wrap to protect your baby from weather conditions. The hoodie itself CANNOT be used as a baby carrier, a sling or a wrap.
This jacket is super awesome. I love how I'll be use it when the babywearing days end. Thanks so much for helping me pick it out! Awesome customer service!
This sweater is amazing. It has a soft, fleece-like lining. Very easy to convert from front wearing to back wearing, also very easy to put on when back wearing. There are these great adjustable elastics on the inside of the back panel, to adjust the size of the head/neck hole at the back. They really put a lot of thought into making this a great baby wearing sweater.
I wore this every day, under the AngelWings Soft Shelf Jacket, through our long, cold Canadian winter, and it was the perfect combination to keep us warm, even on -25C days.
This sweater is my favourite piece of clothing! I love it. Easy to put on and off, comfy and warm. And I get amazing comments all the time when I'm wearing it. My only complaint is the hood is too small and should be removable for back carrying.
I can't express how happy I am with this product. It's warm, it's comfortable, it's soft and versatile. I've used it during travel, just carrying my son around, and even using it as a cover-up while I pump (with extendable portion to minimize and not obstruct the pump). Daniel was great in showing me the different functions of the hoodie. Great product and customer service!
Soft, comfortable and warm. Covers baby and I I in the right places. The fleece is a nice weight. I wear baby and this as my only outerwear in weather above 10°Celcius.
Below 10°C. I will need another outerlayer.
All the zippers and parts fell in the right places. Allie is knowledgeable with sizing and fit, she helped me picked the right size.
Thanks Allie!
Perfect softness to keep me and baby warm and the colour is stunning!!!
Got this to go on holiday for the other "not so littles" to be able to spot us pretty quickly! This onbu feels weightless and I'm excited to get the hang of it and be able to do more with baby on my back!
This jacket is super awesome. I love how I'll be use it when the babywearing days end. Thanks so much for helping me pick it out! Awesome customer service!
This is my first experience using a woven wrap. And it's love, the print is BEAUTIFUL. Even more stunningly in person. Thank you for the amazing customer service and 5e lovely teething necklace. ♥
Little Zen One has the best rings hands down. Their variety of colors and quality control is second to none. I have ordered dozens of pairs and they always come quickly, and are perfect.
Didymos DidyKlick Silver
I would absolutely recommended little zen one for all babywearing wants and needs. They are so quick with responses, they go above and beyond when it comes to customer service, they are supportive if you need assistance. They ship fast and make your transactions personal. Little zen one is the only place I will ever go to buy my carriers.
My husband and I have been babywearing for 4 years now. We've had wraps, Tulas, ring slings and this by far is our favorite. My husband loves his free to grow Tula. He used it every day but now he only reaches for the didyklick! So easy to use and great for all ages.
As always Didymos offers very good products and fair prices - and the service at little zen one is great!
Looking forward to using my Sz 2 when baby is bigger in this beautiful Autumn Rain print! I love how compact and easy to use Integra's are!
I got this wrap for my husband because it has different color rails so it is very easy to learn on
Love this half buckle. So easy to put on and off. Fits great every single time without a lot of adjustment. Material is soft out of the box. My baby likes being carried in it. Cute patterns too. Little Zen One carries great baby carry products and customer service is excellent. Highly recommended
I love this!! I got it for my baby due in March but my 2.5 year old still gets worn on an almost daily basis as well and it has been so comfy for us both! My shoulders don't feel any of the weight which has been great for this very pregnant mama!
Our Mulberry Solar Integra is delightful! It's simple and lightweight design make it a breeze to use. My husband likes it because it allows him to be hands-free while the baby falls asleep in it and stays asleep!
cant get enough of this carrier. it feels like "wearing" here, rather than having her in a carrier. so snuggly and i love the feel of the fabric

Apple is finally making tablet computers as fast as it can sell them
On Saturday, 170 days after Apple (AAPL) began taking pre-orders for the iPad, supply officially caught up to demand, at least on Apple.com. Orders placed today now ship within 24 hours, like any other Apple product except the iPhone.
Getting iPad production up to speed has been a long slow process. Apple basically ran out of product the first weekend and didn't catch up for months. The iPad 3G launch had to be pushed back, the international roll-out postponed by a month, and shipping delays at Apple's online store reached as much as three weeks (15 business days).
By mid-May, shipping within 7-to-10 business days was the rule, a situation that persisted through June and July. It was only in mid-August that those delays began to shrink and finally disappear.
There's no telling when the iPhone will catch up. There's a 5-to-7 day wait for the iPhone 3GS, a three-week wait for the iPhone 4, and the white iPhone 4 still hasn't shipped.

People spend a lot of time online instead of being outside together with other people. When people don´t meet other people they can be misled or manipulated by other people online. It´s also a problem that might lead to the spreading of propaganda, prejudice, intolerance or hate.
So, people need to get out much more and meet new and inspiring people who can help them move forward. Almost all jobs will be found in different networks, and that´s why meetings are so important. Meeting new people with different experiences who can show you in which direction to move.
It´s so important to be open minded and to not let politicians or the media tell you what to say or what to think. Make up your own mind by being outside in the real world where you can see with your own eyes what is happening.
A very good way of meeting new people is to attend different events or participate in different courses. Education is a great way of meeting new and interesting individuals.
Being active on social media is also a very good way of meeting new people from different parts of the worlds. There are many good groups to join where you can find a lot of inspiration.

Dr. A. Maurice Poe Memorial Award for Academic Excellence
About the Sponsor
Born April 28, 1940 to Ruth and Clarence Poe in Taft, California, Maurice passed away peacefully at home with his loving daughter Kristi and son Nick on November 20, 2007 after a long and courageous battle with cancer. Maurice left behind his wife, Cheryl; sons, Ryan and Nick Poe; daughter, Kristi Poe Munson and son-in-law, Sean Munson; sister, Sara Poe Walton; brother, Andrew Poe, and sister-in-law,Jeanne Poe; and countless other relatives and special friends.
Dr. Poe earned his bachelor of arts degree from San Jose State University in 1963. He continued on at San Jose State, receiving his master of arts degree in 1966, and at the University of Oregon, receiving the Doctor of Education in 1969. That same year, Maurice moved to Sacramento to start his 37-year career with Sacramento State. Maurice served as Associate Dean for the College of Education for 16 years and Acting Dean for one year. While in this position he was responsible for making sure that student needs were being met in the best way possible.
While Associate Dean, he began the first distance education programs by the College. These included highly successful graduate programs offered through television and online instruction. Beginning in 2001, Maurice returned to his first love, teaching. For six years he taught a televised children's literature class. His work in reading and literature also included another one of his loves, writing. He wrote both reading texts and children's literature much used in elementary schools throughout the nation. A character he created in the poem, "Willie MacGurkle," showed up in his teaching. Maurice and Willie each liked to have fun with students whether they were in primary grades or at the college graduate level. Maurice's incredible and zany sense of humor and zest for life were infectious to all who knew him. He was filled with unending kindness, compassion and loyalty and will remain an inspiration to us all. He loved to travel and enjoyed golfing, fishing, playing poker and spending time with family and friends. He touched many lives and is greatly missed.
As a memorial to their dear friend, many colleagues came together to establish the Dr. A. Maurice Poe Memorial Award of Academic Excellence, an endowed scholarship in language arts and literacy. This scholarship will be presented annually to the graduate student whose thesis or project focusing on language arts, reading, or children's literature is judged by a committee of faculty as most outstanding.
- Good academic standing
- Limited to students accepted and pursuing any major that supports English Language Arts and Literacy, such as the Reading/Language Arts Specialist Credential program or the Master of Arts degree emphasis in Language and Literacy
- Financial need is not required
- Enrollment requirements require students must be either working toward their degree/credential or they must have attained their degree credential as a result of completing the project or thesis that earned them this award.
NOTE: Student is still qualified for scholarship award if on the University's computer system as working on project or thesis and not enrolled in actual units
- Candidates for this scholarship may still be qualified if he/she has graduated the semester prior to the award

Of late we've been receiving a lot of requests to advertise or write about certain projects in this blog. So, please allow me to post a common response to address all such and future requests.
In fact, I do not see anything wrong with profiting from my blog. However, this is an independent blog about property investments (or collection). We maintain our integrity through this independence. Therefore, I regret that any advertising or blogging or even comments with the purpose to promote any particular project directly or indirectly is strictly prohibited.
In the past, I have advertised and sold some properties through this blog such as:
Endah Villa
Six Ceylon
Mutiara Villa
Some are my own properties or they are properties that I would have bought but do not have the funds to buy so I would like to share the opportunity with my blog readers. To maintain the integrity and reputation of my blog which I have been running since 2008, I would not recommend anything that is over-priced, over-valued or in my opinion, not worth to be invested in.
To be transparent to all blog readers, I do accept and receive finders-fees through such introductions like with any property or business transactions. However, I have also received requests from some friends and families to promote their properties which in my opinion are not attractive investments, some of which are priced too "opportunistically" - I do not advertise or blog about these!
I will also accept for a reasonable fee to advertise non-property advertisments though they may be related to property investments such as furnitures, financing, insurance etc as long as they are legitimate businesses. But if the fee is not reasonable, it is not worthwhile to do it.
So, I hope now everyone is clear about this. Thank you.

Given their popularity, there are zillions of home based business ideas that you can find floating around in the market. The question to be asked here is whether these ideas are actually feasible for you and for the market.
Since a home business start up does not require huge financial resources, there is little room for error and small mistakes can make you end up with less money than what you started off with.
Feasibility analysis is an important part of all businesses, big and small, since it helps the entrepreneur in formulating effective strategies for business operations.
Market feasibility
The first part of your feasibility study is to check out whether or not the market is ready for the product you are offering. If a particular product technically does not serve the needs of your prospective customers, you might want to think twice before marketing it.
Also, you should know what kind of audience you are marketing to. Some products can work for all age groups while others may cater to just one particular group like kids or teens or even senior citizens. Home business ideas do not necessarily fail because they are not good enough. Some ideas can fail because the market is not conducive to them at that point in time.
Personal feasibility
The market alone does not decide if an idea is feasible for you or not. You will need to also consider your limitations and resources wisely while conducting the feasibility study of any business. For instance, you can make plans to earn 10,000 dollars in the first two months of your startup. However, to be able to achieve that amount of income, you will also need to invest a much higher amount. Business ideas that you choose, are centered about your personal commitment. If a particular business opportunity needs you to work for 18 hours a day in order to be successful, it means that you are essentially cut off from your other commitments, which makes the idea not feasible.
Whether or not a particular business idea is feasible for you is also, to a certain extent, decided by the competition in a specific niche. If there are already a lot of players in a particular market, then you will need to come up with a really unique idea to make it feasible for you.
Feasibility report
Before you start out with your home business, it is always a good idea to have a feasibility report prepared. You can either do this yourself or hire the services of a good consultant to do it for you. Consultants will be able to give you a thorough report which is normally prepared by using surveys, web seminars and the Internet.
Home based business ideas can be successful only if they are implemented after considering all the factors very closely. If you have taken enough measures to ensure that you can stay in the market, there is no reason why you won't have a satisfying experience.

There is a growing trend emerging in homes all across Canada. And that is to rip up carpets and have them replaced with hardwood floors. The commonplace thinking behind this trend is that hardwood floors provide more desirable and even sophisticated appearances to living spaces. Further to that, homeowners feel that hardwood floors increase the value of their homes.
And there are those who believe that hardwood floors are easier to keep clean than carpets. This is especially true in the event of spills. These people wouldn't be wrong. In fact, the concept of cleanliness is one that speaks to a larger issue: the health of Canadians nationwide. It can be stated with confidence that the less carpet you have in your home, the more likely you will be to avoid numerous health concerns. Sufferers of asthma and other allergies know this all too well. Simply put, carpet is a breeding ground for allergens and other allergy-triggering irritants.
"When you vacuum, you're not simply cleaning your house or apartment for appearance's sake, you're also safeguarding the health of yourself and your family," insists Jason Roberts on VacuumsGuide.com, "There are dozens of tiny microbes constantly floating around, which can cause a lot of problems for people with asthma and inhalant-related allergies such as hay fever. Dust mites, bacteria, and mould attack an asthma sufferer's respiratory system, making them wheeze, have difficulty breathing, and cough violently at night."
Roberts also provides an infographic that offers up ten different reasons why we should all be vacuuming our homes at least once a week. Topping the list is the fact that we all shed millions of skin cells by the hour. They accumulate in our carpets and rugs, creating environments that are rife with dangerous microorganisms.
Because of this, experts often recommend taking vacuuming practices a step further. On FullHouseCS.ca, A.J. Pipkin discusses the importance of installing a quality HEPA filter in your vacuum cleaner. "Dirt, hair and dust particles can trigger the onset of allergy symptoms if there is a large amount of dust mites in your home carpets or in the air," he points out, "Not vacuum cleaning regularly will cause those in your home to be unprotected from allergies and asthma symptoms."
Regular vacuuming is an even more essential requirement for smokers. It's important to note that the reality of "thirdhand smoke" can impact the health of non-smokers who enter environments where a smoker had previously lit up. Roberts' infographic reveals that carcinogens and other substances from cigarettes can "impregnate" carpets, rugs and upholstery. This has the ability to increase the risk of cancer in both children and pets.
And, by the way, it's time to do away with the so-called "five second rule" that many people practice towards dropped food. When people drop food on the floor, it should be recognized as immediately contaminated. The infographic explains that our floors carry Salmonella, E-coli and other viruses that have the potential to wreak havoc on our digestive systems. This provides all the more reason to regularly vacuum our floors, regardless if they are carpeted or not.
At DF Technical & Consulting Services Ltd., we know the importance of keeping a clean home.

Marketing Automation: Is your business equipped to keep up with shifting technology trends?
With the rate technology is changing in the world today, businesses don't have a choice but to try to keep up.
"Your customers want you to talk to them on the channels that they're using – not always on the ones you prefer," explains Brooke Campbell, Head of Marketing Automation at Squiz.
So, where is technology heading? What's the next tool that will allow you to best communicate with your customers? The answer is that we just don't know.
But when you know these communication channels are central to driving sales and business revenue, you're in a bit of a bind.
"The younger generation isn't always on Facebook anymore," says Brooke. "They're on a world of other platforms, such as Instagram and Snapchat. If you're trying to sell to them on Facebook, you're in the wrong place."
Instead of trying to anticipate what technology trends are around the corner, Brooke suggests that organisations should make sure they have what they need to tackle these trends – whatever they may be.
So, how can you prepare for the future and ensure that you're using marketing automation to its full potential?
Have an open platform that integrates
Businesses today have begun moving away from the consolidated central tool approach. Because of the growing marketing-technology stack, it's no longer a realistic option.
"Compare the marketing-technology landscape five years ago to what it is today," says Brooke. "There were 150 vendors listed in 2011, but in the supergraphic released earlier this year, there are close to 3900."
Instead, organisations are heading towards open platforms with the capabilities to integrate with any other necessary piece of technology. Again, with technology's rapid rate of change, this integration is critical for your future state.
"When the latest, greatest technology comes in, it shouldn't be a question of whether your automation platform can integrate with it," says Brooke. "If that's the case, then you're already at a disadvantage."
It's rare today for companies to build closed-off tools. Open automation platforms, such as Marketo, use application programming interfaces (APIs) and webhooks so they can easily plug in these emerging technologies.
A platform that can integrate with other technologies helps ensure that your business has the flexibility to move with your audience.
"You have to make sure you have an open platform in place so you can integrate technologies when your business is ready or, more important, as your consumers demand it," says Brooke.
Capture the data you need with your future state in mind
Marketing automation is the new way to gather data. Previously, companies had to explicitly collect research through workshops, forums, and questionnaires. Now, they can do research in so many other ways. And although it's important not to abandon these traditional methods – they're valid and critical – these new ways of capturing and analysing data are creating new opportunities for organisations.
"Automation is the key to progressively profiling your customer," explains Brooke. "Your tool allows you to continuously gather implicit data by tracking users' behaviour on your site and their engagement with your social media and email communications."
With these customer insights, you can then start to refine your personas and segments, and better determine the next best offer for your customers. You'll also be able to constantly create new content and communications channels to gather still more customer data.
When you're capturing this data, it's important to have the future state of your business in mind because, although there's never a waste of data, you need to ensure that the data you're capturing aligns with your marketing-automation strategy.
"Although your overarching strategy will remain the same, your business needs to shift its tactics to address the changes in the marketing-technology landscape," says Brooke. "When you have these new data insights, you're in a much better position to do that."
Start by getting the basics right
"If we look at the life cycle of marketing automation, the majority of businesses are still in their infancy," says Brooke. And although some businesses are starting with more advanced automation, such as web personalisation, they're often not doing the fundamentals right.
"We're spending so much time lately trying to catch up with technology that it's important to stop, take stock, and ensure you're making the most of your tool," says Brooke. "Most businesses are using only 10 per cent of its true potential."
According to Brooke, although organisations definitely need to have their eye on the future and where technology is heading, they need to make sure they're implementing strategies they've already set out.
Start doing the basics right first. Implement and optimise those correctly by taking a phased approach. Then begin looking towards the future.
