Israelis are feeding Syrian refugees in Jordan, but in secret
A Syrian refugee in a small refugee camp .

MAFRAQ, Jordan— The purple plastic sacks fill two rooms in the otherwise sparsely furnished headquarters of a Jordanian NGO, awaiting distribution to Syrian refugees already lined up on the sidewalk.They contain an array of staple dry goods — lentils, pasta, powdered milk, tea — as well as a range of hygiene products like soap and detergent, enough for 250 refugee families. But before the goods are handed out, one thing will be removed — the word "Jewish."Going sack by sack with a pair of scissors, an aid worker begins to cut."We don't announce with trumpets that we're Israeli," the worker says. "There's no need for that. Once you let that cat out of the bag, everything starts to blow up."The sacks are paid for by IsraAid, an Israeli nonprofit that provides disaster relief and humanitarian aid across the world. The group has provided medical care and psychological services following earthquakes in Japan and Haiti, and supplies food and other materials to refugees at two camps in Kenya.IsraAid began working in Jordan early this year. Since then, the organization says it has provided approximately $100,000 worth of supplies to refugees who have escaped Syria's brutal civil war.But because Syria and Israel technically have been at war for four decades, discretion and security are paramount in IsraAid's Jordanian operation. Most aid workers interviewed requested anonymity, as did the Jordanian nongovernmental organization that is IsraAid's partner on the ground. Working with Israelis, they say, could endanger their work and the lives of the refugees they help.Israelis may travel freely to Jordan, but when the IsraAid delegation crossed the border on Friday, it brought a letter from the Jordanian NGO that would facilitate the distribution as well as a list of individuals in its party.A police escort joined the group's bumpy ride through northern Jordan, past small villages of flat-roofed houses, lemon groves and vegetable fields. In the distance were the mountains of southern Syria."We try to work by the book and not go under the radar," says Shachar Zahavi, IsraAid's founding director, who explains that other countries also require extended security checks. "The Jordanians are open to it."After 90 minutes, the delegation arrives at the Jordanian NGO's headquarters, next to an empty lot filled with trash on a side street in this city. The capital city of a region of the same name, half of Mafraq's 100,000 residents are refugees from the conflict next door.In total, half a million Syrians have taken refuge in Jordan. Most of them are here, in the border region, and most arrived this year.Directed by a soft-spoken, gray-haired retiree working without pay, the Jordanian NGO focuses on aiding the 200,000 local refugees not living in Zaatri, the massive United Nations refugee camp nearby. The director keeps meticulous records of the constantly growing number of aid recipients, registering every new arrival, noting the size of their family and when they last received aid. Seventy volunteers help purchase and package supplies with funds from groups like IsraAid.With the word "Jewish" removed, the purple bags begin to travel in a human chain down a tight stairwell to the refugees below, almost all of them women wearing long black dresses and matching hijabs. Bags are loaded onto trucks or carried in hand back to wherever they are staying.One woman approaches a volunteer to explain, through basic Arabic and hand motions, that a relative has cancer. Where, she asks, can she find medicine?"We're still at this beginning stage," the aid worker later tells JTA. "You're still being inundated with refugees. They're always going to need food until the situation is stable."The next stop for the IsraAid workers is Hamra, an impromptu refugee camp set up a month ago 20 minutes outside Mafraq. Situated under power lines, surrounded by desert and about to be clouded by a suffocating sandstorm, the camp is home to 25 families from a Damascus suburb who had walked 60 miles to the Jordanian border to escape the fighting.Now they share space in 10 tents with dirty, beige flaps featuring the block letters U.N.H.C.R — for United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees — in faded blue. Inside one, seven thin mattresses sit in a square on a tattered rug. A second room, with a small burner and piles of pots and pans, serves as the tent kitchen.Although they eagerly crowd the distribution truck, most refugees appear healthy, if needy. While the distribution goes on, one resident insists that the workers sit for some coffee.But an elderly woman shakes as she pulls a deformed hand out of her robe, her two fingers wrapped backwards and melded into what was left of her palm. After the bombing that caused her injury, she joined her children and grandchildren on the 60-mile trek. Now she says nothing, her wrinkled face and sunken eyes conveying a resigned helplessness.Zahavi hopes that within a month, IsraAid can bring social workers to Mafraq to help refugees cope with the psychological trauma. Israelis, Zahavi says, are experts in trauma care after decades of dealing with terror attacks."My main agenda is to put Israelis on the ground around the world and show the world that Israel cares about them," he says.IsraAid receives support from several foundations, but the organization says some of its donors initially were reluctant to fund its work in Jordan for fear of becoming involved in the Syria-Israel conflict. But the aid worker says that when refugees discover the Israeli connection, they are still grateful for the help — no matter its political implications."You're talking about hungry people," she says. "These people are in a dire situation. If I hand someone a can of tuna, do they really care where it's coming from?"

Love this recipe! Easy to prepare, looks spectacular and tastes as good as it looks. I add steamed green beans to the salad and use chilli flakes - but half as much as specified. I've made this for guests who've never tried quinoa and they're now hooked.
A lovely dish. I substituted a can of lentils for the Quinoa. Will be making this again.
I varied this dish slightly by using couscous as I could not find quinoa, and I bbqed the steaks and left them whole and served the salad seperately with Roasted Kipfler and Cherry Tomato Salad. It tasted amazing and was one of the best dishes I have made for a while.
This was delicious. The salad had a lovely fresh flavour. I didn't add all the leftover spice mix as I was worried the cumin would overwhelm the salad, but a little bit certainly lifted the flavour. I will definitely be making this again.
This is a little fiddly to make but absolutely worth it. Restaurant quality, seriously! If we were served this we would rave about. The fact we made it ourselves is even better. Very spicy so if you don't like chilli, maybe ease up a bit. Will definitely make again.
Very delicious! I also added cucumber to add some freshness. Definitely a do again
So delish
This was absolutely delish! Lots of flavour! I added blanched snow peas, roast pumpkin, cucumber and only 2 carrots. Loved it and compliments all round.
Love the spiced steak flavour against the sweet carrots and onions. I'll make this again!
Was looking for a fast easy recipe that was also healthy and tasty, this ticked all the boxes. I didn't add the extra spice mixture at the end as it was already spicy enough so next time I will halve the spice ingredients. A brilliant recipe that will become one of our staples!
Delicious! I varied it a bit and used different vegies and moroccan seasoning...so good!
This was yum .... replaced dried chilli flakes with fresh and used baby dutch carrots. Was so nice.
The salad in particular was delicious - it is relatively spicy, so the chilli flakes should be adjusted to taste.

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - Barrels, drums and other potentially hazardous containers scattered on Louisiana's coastal and inland areas after Hurricane Isaac will be collected and removed under a partnership funded by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the state of Louisiana.
Called "orphan drums" because their owners are unidentifiable, the containers may contain chemicals, industrial products or unknown substances.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Coast Guard, in coordination with the Louisiana Department of Environmental Quality, will begin inspecting six parishes where drums have been reported: Jefferson, Lafourche, Plaquemines, St. Bernard, St. Tammany and Terrebonne.
More parishes could be added if abandoned containers are reported there. Residents should not touch, move or open any orphan drum they come across.
The project, announced Tuesday, is expected to last no more than 60 days.

Best laid plans
Mice and men made those "best laid plans." I don't qualify for being a mouse, and find that mice must be used to diminish the generic humans' plans. So they went awry.
I'm home in bed dealing with pains. Drat. It's a beautiful day.
Enough of my elder cat. She'll sleep all curled up until she demands more food or attention. I need to sleep until part of my body heals. Then I can enjoy the beautiful day. Hope so.

I would love to do the Joplin Memorial Half next year! Last June I did the Boomtown Benefit Run here in St. Charles, IL (it was one of the runs to raise money for the recovery efforts). Each of our bibs had the name of someone who died as a result of the tornado. I still keep in touch on FB with a family from Joplin, so luckily they keep me in the loop about what's going on down there :).

I am in the Williams Route 66 in Tulsa on 18 November. I will be running the Half. I think in addition to my 50 States goal, I would like to run as many parts of the Mother Road as I can. So far I have run a race in Chicago, a stretch in Gallup, NM on a daily run, and about three miles on Santa Monica Blvd in LA, CA. Then there will be Tulsa.
Still, I have heard good things about this particular race from others who have run it. I will be put on the list for consideration for 2013.

This is not the one that follows Route 66. That would the be MotherRoad Marathon/Half Marathon that was held a couple of weeks ago. There is also the Route 66 event in Oklahoma.
However, the Joplin Memorial Run is just as awesome ;)) Registration is $45 through tomorrow. Guess I better get myself signe up!
And, for the record, I am in no way affiliated with organizing the JMR. Just a huge fan!
have a great race...btw... love your screen name!

Is this one that follows some of Route 66? I may want to consider it for my Missouri race.

Gibson's Book Club discusses and does a dramatic reading of Richard III, by William Shakespeare
Each February, our book club not only discusses but reads aloud a play by the immortal Bard. We find that our understanding improves through performance. It's a lot of fun. We skip the exposition so we can get out at a normal time, and we all take turns reading the juicy bits so no one feels left out. This year we're tackling one of history's (and Shakespeare's) greatest villains, Richard III. Our book club reads the Folger edition, which is inexpensive and has excellent notes. Please join us! This event is free and open to the public, all are welcome, newcomers are encouraged!
We are dedicated to providing accurate event information, however, we advise calling ahead to confirm dates, times, location, and other details.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Resident Portland cat perches on officer's shoulders as home burglary is investigated
PORTLAND, Ore. - The cat. In the bathroom. On the officer's shoulders?
Nope, not a game of "Clue." But police say one orange tabby wanted to be closely involved when officers responding to a burglary report searched the cat's home in southeast Portland.
Sgt. Pete Simpson says police were called Monday afternoon when a woman returned home from work to find her house burglarized. When police entered the home to search for a suspect, Officer Sarah Kerwin noted broken glass on the floors of the basement and a bathroom.
Because the resident cat was walking around on the floor, the officer picked up the cat to make sure it didn't step in the glass. The cat happily climbed onto Kerwin's shoulders and stayed there as police finished searching the house.
No burglar was found.

Last day at Tsitsikamma
Last day – Today was out last day before flying out tomorrow. We drove to Tsitsikamma National Park and hiked to the suspension bridge over the Storms River mouth right at the ocean. This park has incredibly beautiful campsites -- log cabins and RV/tent sites right in front of the rocky surf. If we came back again, we'd definitely want to camp here for a while -- the hiking, kayaking, ziplining, etc., make it seem like a great ...
Backpacking Detour on the Garden Route
... locations, and they drive right to the doorstep of your hostel, with most of these hostels being located along the southern coast of South Africa. Essentially, when you're leaving your hostel in Cape Town via Baz Bus, they pick you up, throw your backpack into their towed trailer, and then drop you off at whatever location you've requested, typically right at the front door of your hostel. I've seen smaller iterations of this kind of service in the ...
Final destinations
... where I would meet Lilian. We had planned back when we were at the orphanage together to do the Garden Route (an area along the southern coast of South Africa), and had finally set a date to see one another.
I arrived at the Beach House first. This hostel had been recommended to me by many and surely the view was the reason why. We couldn't have asked for a better view. The ocean was right there in front of us...stunning. I ...

Sections of the drive were stunning but others boring (in reality they are still great but I am being a spoilt child now!!). There were road works going for a large part which meant we could sit at lights for up to 20 minutes! It was really hard to take good pictures out the window on the move and ...
Travel angel earns a promotion
... when I fell asleep on the bus (typical that I only manage to achieve this feat on my last bus journey!), I dreamt that I stepped over the electric fence on the ground and it shocked the back of my ankle. Not a particularly memorable dream, except for the fact that I then sat bolt up right on the bus, and gasped. The woman next to me just laughed and asked me what was wrong. Maybe from many experiences of trying unsuccessfully to communicate obscure things, I decided it was simpler just to laugh as well!
How has this hotel rated in the past?

AT&T has announced via their Facebook page, that the Samsung Focus S and Focus Flash will be available starting on November 6th. The lower end Focus Flash will sell for just $49.99, while the Focus S will be $199.99 – Of course, these prices are based on a two year contract with a minimum $15 per month data plan. It's my guess the full retail price of these phones, without contact will be something like $350, and $550. Although, AT&T hasn't posted those details yet, so we'll just have to wait a little longer to know for sure.
All of the specs for these phones are not yet known. However, we can tell you that the Focus Flash will have a 3.7 inch Super AMOLED screen, a 1.4 Ghz processor, 5 megapixel rear camera, and a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera. The Focus S will have a 4.3 inch Super AMOLED Plus screen, 1.4 Ghz processor, an 8 megapixel camera, and a 1.3 megapixel front facing camera. The Focus S will also be just 8.5mm at it's thinnest point and AT&T claims it's 4G compatible.
If you've been watching the Samsung Galaxy line of devices, you may notice that the Samsung Focus S looks an awful lot like the Samsung Galaxy S II smartphone. We won't be able to say for sure until see more hardware specs or have a chance to spend some real time with this device.

The Greater Toledo Train and
Toy Show takes place on Sunday at Owens Community College.
Hundreds of hobbyists are
expected to show up to buy, sell and trade model trains and other toys.
Thomas the Tank Engine
will be there giving rides to the kids and there will be Lego layouts as well.
Organizers say this is a great event to get
kids hooked on the hobby.
"Toy trains are expensive
but if you come to a show like this you can get some really nice starter sets
whether it's old or new. Very reasonable. Kids, once they play with the stuff,
it takes right off," said show organizer Randy Ramsey.
The show runs from 11:00
to 3:00 tomorrow at Owens Community College.
Admission for adults is
six dollars.
Kids under twelve get in for free.

|Steve Jobs (via Chris Dixon's blog)
From an interview with Adam Nash, Wealthfront CEO
"In the software industry, you're used to dealing with very smart people. What they really need out of leadership is very simple. They need to know the game we're playing and how to keep score."
"So if you have a company where everyone has their own ways of keeping score, you'll get incessant fighting and arguments, and they're not even arguing about what to do. They're arguing about how to keep score. They're arguing about what game we're really playing. That's all counterproductive."
What we can learn from his research is that mitigating factors that lead to job dissatisfaction won't necessarily lead us to job satisfaction. -3 Psychological Theories To Help You Communicate Better With Anyone
This is called Herzberg's Motivation-Hygiene Theory
Motivation Factors

- the work itself
- responsibility
- advancement
- growth
Hygiene Factors

- supervision

I quote this all the time. It's one of the most effective techniques I know in diffusing a situation where one person is complaining about another person wronging them. I call those people "social conspiracy theorists."
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
I like to substitute "ignorance" for stupidity when you don't want to insult the other person too much.
I also like this quote:

I don't know this guy or like the rest of his post, but I like this story.
There once was a young man who wanted to make a lot of money. So he goes to a GURU to seek out his advice.
He goes to him and says" I wanna be on the same level as you're on."
The GURU says"If you wanna be on the same level as I'm on,I'll meet you tomorrow at the beach at 4 am".
The young man says,"The Beach? I said I wanna make money,I don't wanna swim."
The GURU says,"If you wanna make money,I'll meet you tomorrow. 4am."
The young man got there at 4am.He was all ready to rock'n roll.He had put on a suit(should've worn shorts).
The GURU grabs his hands and asks,"How bad do you wanna be successful?"
The young man says" Real bad."
The GURU says,"Walk out into the water."
So the young man walks out into the water. As he walks further he is waist deep into the water.He thinks,"What's he got me doing?I didn't come here to swim.I don't wanna be a lifeguard.I wanna make money."
The GURU says,"Don't stop,walk a little further."
The young man walks a little further and now he is neck deep into the water.He thinks,"Is this man crazy? He may be rich and successful be he sure is crazy."
The GURU says,"Walk out a little further".
The young man walks out a little further and now his nose is barely above the water level.He thinks,"Think guy is out of his mind".
He is about to go back when the GURU says,"I thought you wanted to be successful".
The young man says,"I do."
The GURU walks upto him and says,"Then walk out a little further."
As the young man begins to walk further into the water the GURU grabs his head and puts him under water.The young man can't breathe now.He starts throwing his hands here and there in desperate attempt to get out of the water.Just before the young man was about to pass out,the GURU pulls him out and says,"I've got a question for you."
Try to answer this question yourself,
He asks,"When you were underwater,what did you wanted to do?"
The young man replies,"Breathe".(What did you answer?)
He told the guy,"When you will want to succeed as bad as you wanted to breathe,then you'll be successful."
Spade and Sperduti have eschewed the idea that the best way to sell a product is to tell your customers what they should think about it. Instead, they believe that a brand should speak for itself through its interactions with customers. Those interactions, in turn, must be driven by an authentic and clear brand vision. The general idea, says Spade, is that no matter the size of your company, your brand should "act small."
On the surface, starting and building a successful ecommerce business may look easy but it's much more challenging than many think. That's why I've scoured the Internet to find the best resources for ecommerce entrepreneurs, whether you're a newb or a seasoned pro.

- When it's unclear who's got the ball and what should be happening, everyone trusts that the DRI is driving. When you trust your DRI, you don't have to worry when you don't see any recent activity about that issue.
- When everyone knows that something is important, but no one feels like it's their responsibility to see it all the way through. In a fast-growing company with tons of activity, important things get left on the table not because people are irresponsible but just because they're really busy.
- Having a DRI is also efficient for the team because you don't have 15 people all worrying about the same things. Instead, an engineer can feel comfortable knowing that sometimes they simply show up and other people will tell them what to do, freeing them to focus on the challenge at hand.
These are all important principles in management as well. I bolded the ones I think need most repeating:
- Do not feel absolutely certain of anything.
- Do not think it worth while to proceed by concealing evidence, for the evidence is sure to come to light.
- Never try to discourage thinking for you are sure to succeed.
- When you meet with opposition, even if it should be from your husband or your children, endeavor to overcome it by argument and not by authority, for a victory dependent upon authority is unreal and illusory.
- Have no respect for the authority of others, for there are always contrary authorities to be found.
- Do not use power to suppress opinions you think pernicious, for if you do the opinions will suppress you.
- Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion now accepted was once eccentric.
- Find more pleasure in intelligent dissent than in passive agreement, for, if you value intelligence as you should, the former implies a deeper agreement than the latter.
- Be scrupulously truthful, even if the truth is inconvenient, for it is more inconvenient when you try to conceal it.
- Do not feel envious of the happiness of those who live in a fool's paradise, for only a fool will think that it is happiness.
|Harry Singleton
- Extreme Focus: "Peter required that everyone be tasked with exactly one priority. He would refuse to discuss virtually anything else with you except what was currently assigned as your #1 initiative."
- Dedication to individual accomplishment: "Most great innovations at PayPal were driven by one person who then conscripted others to support, adopt, implement the new idea."
- Refusal to accept constraints, external or internal: "We were expected to pursue our #1 priority with extreme dispatch (NOW) and vigor. To borrow an apt phrase, employees were expected to "come to work every day willing to be fired, to circumvent any order aimed at stopping your dream.""
- Radical transparency on metrics: "All employees were expected to be facile with the metrics driving the business. Otherwise, how could one expect each employee to make rational calculations and decisions on their own every day?"
- Vigorous debate: often via email. Almost every important issue had champions and critics. These were normally resolved not by official edict but by a vigorous debate that could be very intense.

There's a whole book (linked to in the article) with the basic premise that there are 2 types of motivations:
"If you are promotion-focused, you want to advance and avoid missed opportunities. If you are prevention-focused, you want to minimize losses and keep things working."
"For a promotion-focused person, what's really "bad" is a non-gain: a chance not taken, a reward unearned, a failure to advance. They would rather say Yes! and have it blow up in their faces than feel like they let Opportunity's knock go unanswered."
"But for the prevention-focused, the ultimate "bad" is a loss you failed to stop: a mistake made, a punishment received, a danger you failed to avoid. They would much prefer to say No! to an opportunity, rather than end up in hot water."

Police in Cobb County are investigating two fatal auto accidents that happened over the Christmas weekend.
The first accident happened on Christmas around 10:15 p.m. on Pisgah Rd. in Mableton.
According to police, the driver, 18-year-old Eric Lynch, was driving a Honda Civic at a high rate of speed when he lost control on wet pavement and hit a utility pole on the side of the road.
Lynch, who wasn't wearing a seatbelt, was thrown from the car. He was taken to the hospital where he died.
The second fatal crash happened several hours later in Mableton.
Police said that around 3 a.m., 27-year-old David W. Jones drove his truck off Oglesby Rd. and into some trees.
Jones, who also wasn't wearing a seatbelt, died at the scene of the wreck. According to police, alcohol could have factored into the accident.
If you have any information about either of the accidents, call Cobb County Police at 770-499-3987.
The following are mugshots of individuals arrested in May by local authorities in Northeast Tennessee.

Official Website: BatmanvSupermanDawnofJustice.com
Plot Summary
Zack Snyder, the director of last year's "Man of Steel," doubles down on A-list superheroes in his follow-up "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice," teaming a returning Henry Cavill as Superman and Ben Affleck as Batman, the latest cinematic incarnation of the Dark Knight. By bringing in more DC Comics heroes such as Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot) and Cyborg (Ray Fisher), "Dawn of Justice" is the next step toward building a strong movie universe that ultimately leads to "Justice League."
"Man of Steel" was all about Superman finding his place in the world as both a hero and as a man, ultimately saving the city of Metropolis from certain doom. "Dawn of Justice" continues to immerse him on Earth by working at the Daily Planet as Clark Kent along with Lois Lane (Amy Adams) and Perry White (Laurence Fishburne). But it also takes him to new environments such as Gotham City and introduces larger threats, including Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg). The debuting heroes Superman meets will affect his perspective on Earth and on the ones he loves, and his convictions will be drawn into question as well.

A Recipe For Caring, Commitment, and Compassion
In its seventeenth year, Community Services Agency's "Chefs Who Care" dine-out has been a popular fundraiser that rotates among some of the area's finest restaurants. Participating restaurants donate 40-50% of their proceeds for a specified dinner on a particular date (or two) each month.
"It's a fun, easy, and rewarding way to support Community Services Agency and a great way to sample some of the new restaurants in the area, " says Jim Boin, Development Director for CSA, "We have groups of friends who all come together on the same night, but you don't have to be a part of a group to participate – just call or mail payment with information and sign up in advance."
The event is so popular now, attracting over 200 people each month that it is sometimes held
over a 3-night period depending on the restaurant size.
Last year over $30,000 was raised to support our Food and Nutrition Center, the largest component of our Emergency Assistance Program.
"The food available in our Food and Nutrition Center supports self-sufficiency by allowing money that might have gone to groceries to go for rent, medical bills and other expenses," says LaDrea Clark, CSA's Food & Nutrition Assistant. "It also provides an opportunity with health and nutrition education to address lifestyle choices in diet that may impact future health problems with their subsequent economic and social burdens."
Can't attend? Donate directly!
Thank you to all the local restaurants who truly stepped up to the plate!

The success of your iPhone app development depends on a couple things that you should do. As you know, there are billions of apps that are in the app store and it seems that everything has an app for it. But with this great number of apps already in the market, you have to do certain things to make your app launching a success. Whether it is free or paid, here are some things that you should do.
1. Marketing
There was a time when developers just need to make their own app, place it in the app store and wait for it to be used by many. When there was not much app in the app store, all you have to do was to provide an app that does a specific job or does something cool then wait for a lot of people to use it. Nowadays, it can be quite difficult to get users to try out your app because there are a lot more apps that are available. What app developers do today is to make sure that their apps are categorized correctly.
2. A long term strategy is best
When your app fails to get the number of users you desired or the number of profits you wish to have, you don't have to give up on it just yet. Instant success is sweet but long term success is the sweetest. Make sure that your app isn't just great because it just came out to the public. Better yet, make sure that you can deliver the same great quality at given intervals so that continuous great service is given to your users. This enables your users and other future users to open your and use your app for a long time. Make sure you have the resources to give out these updates even though the number of users is still not that high. Slowly but surely, your market will soon increase in number.
3. Beta Testing
Testing your app before you release it is a great idea to make sure that your target market takes the bait. You can call on friends and family for the beta launch. There may also be times when you do a beta test on a group of people who fit your target market. In this way you get to hear their feedbacks even before you release the app. This will make it easier for you to update and revise your app quickly.
4. An app you can be proud of
You should build an app that you are proud to call yours. It is worth all your efforts and because you made sure that it really functions well, your name should be in it. You should be proud of having this app made and you should know the app like the back of your hand. Also be ready to take constructive criticism so that you can improve your work and impress more people in the future once you release a better version of your app.

Number of ratings 9 / Average Grade: B+ Submit a correction
This professor was not helpful whatsoever. I explained to her that it was my first law class and I asked how the case studies had to be formatted and received no answer. She did not help me when I repeatedly messaged her on Canvas asking for clarification on things I had failed. This was hands down my worst experience with a professor at Bucks.
Laws 100
Intro to paralegal studies was an easy class. Timby is harsh to students who are struggling at the end of the semester she sent out a note on canvas telling anyone who did not receive a C or better to rethink their career choice. Attendance is mandatory, and she will drop you one letter grade if you miss more than 2 classes. Take Costello for laws
Take law 100 in person!Proffessor Timby is one of the best Proffessors I have ever worked with. Her lectures are hilariouse.Make sure to ask her about the WAWA story.
She was a great teacher. Her tests and assignments weren't too hard if you understood the information. She told you exactly what you needed to study for the tests. She was also very nice and made the class fun by telling us about her experiences. I recommend her if you're planning to take a law class.
Great Instructor! Easy Class. It's like Computers in the Law Office fro Dummies. Easy A.
I like Timby as a teacher, she tries to make sure you understand the information. The only thing I do not like is she makes you do a service learning which is 16hrs of sitting in municipal meetings and then you give a 10min presentation to the class.
Very nice; extremely helpful; presented content well; expects assignments completed on time; 2 test for semester; would definitely recommend; Not to much work;
This professor has lost all credibility with me. She rescheduled or missed three seperate appointments with me. Advised her exams were MC and grade would be available immediately. Exam was MC, T/F and very short essay. Grade was not available immediately. Offered no direction for exam preparation. Slow to grade assignments.
Hybrid - Show up to the few class and do the assignments (which are fairly easy) and it's an easy A

Forgettable ads and dumb websites litter the digital landscape. Consider these six tips to avoid those pitfalls.
Try asking anyone in an agency environment or in a marketing department how great creative contributes to the marketing campaign. They'll quickly reply with all the best practice approaches like marrying good creative with good placement, bringing creative professionals early into the planning stages, and blah, blah, blah. The reality is usually something far different and it shows. Our digital world is littered with forgettable ads, dumb websites, and other digital experiences that don't apply what we know about our prospective audience. These efforts don't give a clear next step, don't use the power of creative to tell an interesting story, or fail to communicate a relevant and memorable message.
Creative can mean many things to all the people that touch it professionally. Ads and apps, websites, search copy, and Twitter replies are among dozens of options that provide communication touch points that have the power to inform, entertain, and persuade - or not. Digital creative goes far beyond the obvious visual or copy writing elements to include timing, tone, and channel chosen for outreach or response.
Good digital creative requires the integration of media planners, UX pros, social community managers, the search team, technology experts, research folks, the client or account team - in fact the whole agency or team must think creatively and in concert to ensure a solid strategic foundation and the desired impact. The "creative department" is or should be the whole agency as we are all in the business of creating powerful digital experiences that support a business objective.
I polled a cross-section of our "creative team" to get their insights and tips on delivering great digital creative.
Good design and creative execution are not about pretty pictures or clever copy, at least not by themselves. Extraordinary creative results often come with some risk that is not always comfortable or even appropriate in every situation. So while not all creative can be great, it can certainly all be good/effective. And the way to get there is by involving your full team in the creative process.

A couple of weeks ago I bought some Capezio discount dancewear online. I wanted some boy-short type leotard bottoms. I couldn't find any locally – there are no stores in the area that sell dancewear for adults. I found exactly what I wanted and ordered them online. Much to my chagrin, when they arrived I realized that I had accidentally ordered GIRLS leotard bottoms instead of WOMENS leotard bottoms! They were WAY too small (cute, but too small!) So I had to return them and ask for a refund. Back to the drawing board! I can't seem to find what I want in my size, but there are some cute alternatives – I just have to decide which one I want. Sometimes making a decision is hard!
