"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
Years ago, when I was a salesperson at AT&T, I sold a new telephone system to a nursing home in Augusta, GA. I scheduled to have the new system installed late one night so the elderly residents wouldn't miss phone calls from loved ones during the day. I was at the nursing home the night of the installation training the employees how to use the system's features. While waiting for the installation to be completed, I wandered into the television room to watch the 11 p.m. news.

 I became engaged in a conversation with a sweet, elderly woman named Mrs. Brown who told me what it was like raising her two daughters during the Great Depression. She described how tough it was, and how it became even tougher when her husband came home one day and announced he lost his job. I don't recall what she said his job was, but I do remember the new job he found. It was five miles away dyeing denim at a huge textile mill in Trion, GA. She told me each night her husband would come home late with dry, cracked, blue-dyed hands, complaining about how much he missed his old job.

 While they were never rich, her girls always had what they needed, but they soon began to complain about not having anything. They complained about no longer getting presents on Christmas and birthdays and having to wear hand-me-down clothes from their older cousins.

 Mrs. Brown called a family meeting and announced even though they had lost so much, they needed to be thankful for what they had left. Together they made a list of the 10 things they did have that they should be most thankful for and hung it on the wall above the kitchen table.

 Within a year, as the depression deepened, she said her family lost all 10 of the things on the list, including their home. They packed and moved from their two-bedroom house into a two-room duplex one block from the mill.

 I looked at her and said, "I'm so sorry, that must have been horrible. What did you do?"

 She sat up straight, looked at me through her piercing, wise old eyes and said, as though it should have been obvious, "Why, we made another list."

 Mrs. Brown said so much in those five little words. She subtly conveyed to me that we develop appreciation by acknowledging and listing how much we do have in life. The tone of her voice expressed her firm belief each of us always has something to be thankful for. And her quick, determined answer gave me a glimpse of a resilient mind-set that always picked up the pieces, adapted, and moved forward.

 I've always drawn inspiration from Mrs. Brown's story and also have found that same spirit, mind-set, and appreciation in the best salespeople. When times are tough, they know they can get better. But they also know things can get worse. For that reason, they make it a practice to appreciate the opportunities and resources that are available to them.

 When times get tough, remember the following:

 •Step away from closed doors. I know a realtor here in Orlando who told me she had been through downturns before and the market would come back soon. Her plan was to continue to prospect for customers and market her business the same way she always had. After 18 months, she gave up and took a job at one of the amusement parks. I always imagine her sitting by a big closed door waiting for it to reopen.

 I know another realtor in Daytona Beach who realized many of his potential listings were trying to sell their own homes. Instead of trying to talk them out of it, he decided to help them. He loaned them a big "FOR SALE BY OWNER" sign, gave them a list of the top 10 things to do when selling your own home, and provided the names and contact information for the resources needed to complete the sale. He told me he knew they would remember him when they needed a realtor. He recognized another door had opened when the other one closed.

 •Make Mrs. Brown's list. Review and catalog the resources and strengths you have. Then make a list of them.

 •Stop selling and just listen. Make a "listening call" rather than a "sales call" to your best customers to find out how what they want and need has changed. During the Great Depression, 72 of the best companies in the United States created research and development laboratories to determine how to adapt and find new opportunities in a struggling economy. The formal first step in each of these lab's new product development process was listening. It may have been called something more formal, such as discovery, market feedback or customer input, but they simply were listening to customers' wants and needs.

 •Adapt. Determine how to make the best use of what you have to help your customers. Look at what your customers want and need, then determine how you can add value, help them, or refer them to someone who can.

 •Move forward. Revise your goals, or develop new ones and move forward.

 And just in case things continue to get worse, remember the prophetic words of Mrs. Brown: "Why, we made another list."

Researchers hope to reduce the incidence of large birth weights
In the first study of its kind, researchers at Temple University School of Medicine will analyze whether the frequent monitoring and adjustment critical to the management of diabetes during pregnancy can be better accomplished virtually. The ultimate goal is to reduce large birth weights, which can pave the way to later problems such as obesity and diabetes. Gestational diabetes, which typically occurs toward the end of pregnancy, affects 3 to 5 percent of all women in the United States, and is more common in African-American, Latino, American Indian and Asian Indian populations. To keep blood sugars under control, critical for a healthy pregnancy, frequent monitoring is required so that adjustments to diet and medication can be made promptly.
Can telemedicine, primarily via the Internet, make this process easier and more effective? And, more importantly, can the use of telemedicine in managing gestational diabetes help prevent excessive growth of the fetus? These questions form the crux of a new project led by Carol Homko, R.N., Ph.D., C.D.E., assistant research professor at Temple University School of Medicine, and supported by a project grant from the National Institutes of Health.

I am making new stuff indeed!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Think u can make a 1:30 Second song? I would love it so I can make better geomtry dash lvls
Sorry but I don't like my stuff being half
Rated 4 / 5 stars
Well, first 30 seconds and I'm liking the jump... oh wow. Jumpstyle for real there a bit.
I would fatten that saw up a bit. The Piano is taking the lead and also driving the song rather than the saw doing the driving.
Four on the floor at the end, with a downlifter for the ending. Pretty solid.
Other Notes:
Add some reverb to that crash! It just dies after it plays!
Try messing around with a lowpass filter. Its common in Jumpstyle/Hardstyle (well most electronic music afaik)
Thanks for the review mate! Actually i kind of started this as a Dance track and not a jumpstyle one, it just have this feel. The crash already has reverb, maybe it's not enough although i think it's alright and I just wanted to make it simple so no many low passes xD

I have been working at DialAmerica part-time (Less than a year)
Fair compensation, good team leaders, opportunities to advance, inbound calling program, great environment, excellent co-workers.
Scripted calls (can get boring), Part-time only, no health benefits.
I have been working at DialAmerica full-time (More than 5 years)
Good management and positive work environment. Ability to grow and advance within the company. Great learning environment.
Low pay for the amount of work. Facility (in CHS) is falling apart (it seems like it), when it rains, it leaks in several different areas. Sarcastic managers who call you an idiot and think its funny when you don't know something.
Advice to Management
Listen to your agents and pay us more. Working for as little as we do when other call centers in the are paying in the upwards of $10 - $12 per hour as base pay and you're still at $8 is ridiculous.

If you can make sales over the phone constantly and not be bothered by cranky customers who are called 10 times a day, everyday, and make sales you can make good money sitting in front of a computer with headphones on your head.
Harassing customers. Low base pay.
Advice to Management
Really need to rethink about the morale of calling customers 10 times a day, everyday, for over 6 months.

Radiation therapy uses high-energy rays or particles to kill cancer cells. Radiation may be used:
Two main types of radiation therapy can be used: external beam radiation and brachytherapy (internal radiation). Both appear to be good methods of treating prostate cancer, although there is more long-term information about the results of treatment with external beam radiation.
External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT)
Radiation therapy is a preferred treatment for prostate cancer patients because it targets cancer cells, with less damage to healthy tissues than other treatments. External beam radiation therapy (EBRT) delivers high-energy rays to tumors, using a machine called a linear accelerator. At the Foshay cancer center the Varian Trilogy™ allows prostate cancer radiation therapy to be delivered from any angle and shapes radiation beams to conform to the contour of the tumor.
Our state-of-the-art radiation technology enables our oncologists to more accurately target a tumor with higher doses of radiation, while minimizing damage to your healthy prostate tissue. This helps to lower the risk of side effects typically associated with radiation treatment for prostate cancer, like incontinence and erectile dysfunction.
Our technology allows us to monitor the tumor's position before each treatment, and track if the tumor has shifted or changed shape since your last treatment. Treatment takes only a few minutes, plus some additional time for set-up.
During treatment you will lie down in the position that was determined during your simulation visit. You may be positioned with customized immobilization devices to hold you in the same position for each session; lie still and breathe normally during your treatment.
The linear accelerator will rotate around your body to deliver radiation beams from different directions. Your radiation therapists will be close by and will maintain video and audio surveillance of you during your treatment. If at any time you are in pain or are uncomfortable please speak up and they will assist you.
This form of prostate cancer radiation therapy is generally given five days a week, over the course of six to eight weeks.
Advantages of External Beam Radiation Therapy
Possible side effects of EBRT
Any numbers below used to describe the possible side effects relate to standard external radiation therapy, which is now used much less often than in the past. The risks of the newer treatment methods described above are likely to be lower.
Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT)
3D-CRT uses special computers to precisely map the location of your prostate. Radiation beams are then shaped and aimed at the prostate from several directions, which makes it less likely to damage normal tissues. You will most likely be fitted with a plastic mold resembling a body cast to keep you in the same position each day so that the radiation can be aimed more accurately. This method seems to be at least as effective as standard radiation therapy with lower side effects.
Intensity Modulated Radiation Therapy (IMRT) for Prostate Cancer
Intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a state-of-the-art radiation delivery system.
IMRT uses beams that change shape during the treatment, creating multiple beamlets (beam segments) to vary the radiation intensity across each beam. This allows us to precisely conform the dose to match the exact 3D geometrical shape of the tumor, including concave and convex shapes, while sparing nearby normal tissue. IMRT treats difficult-to-reach tumors in the prostate with greater precision than conventional radiation. As a result, we are able to use higher radiation doses and minimize damage to the surrounding healthy tissue. Tumors that could be treated using conventional techniques can now be treated using much higher doses, resulting in improved cure rates, while reducing side effects.
Because of its greater degree of accuracy, IMRT may be a treatment option if you have reached the maximum allowable dose of prostate cancer radiation therapy and have a recurrent tumor in the treated area.
High-Dose Rate Brachytherapy (HDR)
High-dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy is an innovative form of internal radiation therapy for the treatment of prostate cancer.
Because the prostate gland is located close to the bladder and rectum, it is important for radiation treatment to be tightly focused on the prostate to avoid serious side effects. HDR brachytherapy offers a fast, precise way to administer prostate cancer radiation therapy for select patients. The radiation is deposited inside a tumor, delivering a maximum dose while minimizing exposure to the surrounding healthy tissue.
High-dose rate brachytherapy uses laser-thin, hollow catheters to deliver a precise, three-dimensional dose of radiation. The catheters are temporarily inserted in and around the prostate using image-guidance before each treatment.
The position of the catheters is checked with millimeter precision then a series of radioactive pellets are inserted into each catheter. Computer guidance controls how far the pellet goes into the catheter and how long the pellet stays in the catheter. This allows us to precisely target the location of tumors and release the radiation dose.
HDR Brachytherapy can provide a very precise treatment for prostate cancer that takes only a few minutes. Usually three treatments, taking 15 - 20 minutes, are given taking place over two days as opposed to several weeks for external beam radiation therapy. Radiation exposure to healthy tissues is minimized or eliminated altogether reducing side effects such as incontinence and erectile dysfunction. Because there is no incision and no surgical wound to heal, recovery from the procedure is generally rapid.
After the last treatment the catheters are removed. For about a week after treatment, you may have some pain or swelling in the area between your scrotum and rectum, and your urine may be reddish-brown.
These treatments are usually combined with external beam radiation given at a lower dose than if used by itself. The total dose of radiation is computed so that it is high enough to kill all the cancer cells. The advantage of this approach is that most of the radiation is concentrated in the prostate gland itself, sparing the urethra and the tissues around the prostate such as the nerves, bladder, and rectum.
Possible Risks and Side Effects of Brachytherapy
There is also a small risk that some of the seeds may move (migrate). You may be asked to strain your urine for the first week or so to catch any seeds that might come out. Be sure to carefully follow any instructions your doctor gives you. There have also been reports of the seeds moving through the bloodstream to other parts of the body, such as the lungs. As far as doctors can tell, this doesn't seem to cause any ill effects and happens very rarely.
Like external beam radiation, brachytherapy can also cause bowel problems, urinary problems, and problems with erections.
Conformal Proton Beam Radiation Therapy
Proton beam therapy is related to 3D-CRT and uses a similar approach. But instead of using x-rays, this technique focuses proton beams on the cancer. Protons are positive parts of atoms. Unlike x-rays, which release energy both before and after they hit their target, protons cause little damage to tissues they pass through and then release their energy after traveling a certain distance. This means that proton beam radiation may be able to deliver more radiation to the prostate and do less damage to nearby normal tissues. There is no long term data on proton therapy, although early results are promising, studies are needed to see if proton beam therapy is better in the long-run than other types of external beam radiation. Right now, proton beam therapy is not widely available. The machines needed to make protons are expensive, and there are only a handful of them in use in the United States. Proton beam radiation may not be covered by all insurance companies at this time.
The Foshay Cancer Center Experience
At the Foshay Cancer Center we have extensive experience treating prostate cancer. We were one of the first hospitals to perform temporary high dose rate implants. We are proud to stay at the forefront of leading edge technology in using image guidance technology, intensity modulated radiation therapy and the Varian Trilogy Rapidarc delivery system for prostate cancers.
Our facility is accredited by the American College of Radiology, as a patient this provides you with the assurance that we meet the highest standards of patient safety and quality care. Our fellowship trained, board-certified, Radiation Oncologists offer you their expertise combined with compassionate care.

5 Brands That Break the Mould With Their Web Copy
Good web copy is crucial for every business. Uninspired content can drive visitors away from your website and back to Google faster than you can say "baby, come back". Sure, your service might be better than your competitors', but if your web copy is dull or riddled with typos, you've just lost yourself a customer.
Have you ever been on a website and realised you have to scroll back to the top of the page because you weren't really paying attention? Unfortunately, not every industry welcomes cheeky innuendo and amusing GIFs to keep readers engaged. (Luckily, our industry does. Stick with us.)
It can be easy for more 'corporate' businesses to play it safe, often inspiring visitors to take a nap rather than make an enquiry. And sure, a company that offers legal advice, for example, isn't going to have the same creative freedom with their web copy as a company that sells cute outfits for dogs. But that doesn't mean you have to be dull.
These 5 brands successfully broke the mould with their web copy, and we say "brava!" to their outside-the-box approach.
1. Marque Lawyers
Breaking free of the stereotype that lawyers are stuffy and old-fashioned, the Marque Lawyers website immediately draws you in with its sleek, contemporary design and bold images. Yeah, it looks pretty, but it's the company's copy that keeps you on their site.
Their mantra "Law, done differently" is apparent in their content – a breath of fresh air compared to your average law site. Marque doesn't overwhelm the reader with information. They keep it simple, and instead of offering promises and statistics on success, they tell you what they don't do (e.g. they don't charge clients by the hour, for contact or for travel time).
It's this approach that makes Marque stand out, focusing on the relationship between lawyer and client. This copy makes the reader feel valued and respected immediately, thinking, in Marque's own words: "Finally, lawyers who get it."
The best thing about the AAMI website is that while it's fun, it's still totally professional. Consistent with the brand's image that we know and love from TV advertisements, AAMI proves it is possible to nail the "friendly/professional" tone that so many companies aim for (and awkwardly miss).
This super user-friendly site never fails to put the customer first with personable and conversational copy. By keeping the content concise, the reader is able to get the information they need without reading a novel and easily take action with guidance from the site's well-thought-out design.
It might seem impossible, but AAMI makes insurance seem fun and easy. What more convincing could a reader need to make the call?
3. ShineWing Australia
Visit the ShineWing Australia website and you'll immediately feel inspired by their snappy sentences that ooze passion, subtly sprinkled with a bit of bad-ass attitude for good measure.
This site offers visitors a more personal experience with partner profiles visible on the landing page. After all, it's not just about the services a business can offer a potential client. Every accounting firm rattles these off like they're going out of fashion. It's about the people who make up the company, and the importance of the relationship between these professionals and their clients.
ShineWing says goodbye to dull and hello to injecting personality into their website, giving readers something to remember them by when they're deciding between accounting firms.
4. YLaw Group
YLaw Group's website is a perfect example of how to deliver a message clearly and effectively while engaging with, and relating to, the reader. With all the information you need clearly set out on their landing page, YLaw doesn't require you to go hunting through pages and links to find what you're looking for.
Their copy is poignant and hopeful, sympathising with the reader and clearly making the statement that YLaw is on their team. Honest and transparent, their site answers every question you might have with concise information regarding the company's background and values, client testimonials and a clear outline regarding initial costs. This saves you a phone call at least, and demonstrates the company's respect of their clients' time.
Personable and relevant, YLaw's web copy paints a positive picture of what clients can expect when working with the business, as opposed to the somewhat sterile and detached content of its competitors.
5. Nimble
When someone needs money fast, they don't want to be stuffing around trying to navigate a website. With their customer in mind, Nimble has created simple and concise website copy that offers all the essential information in as little words as necessary.
Their loan examples are an especially nice touch, taking away the need for the potential customer to do the calculations themselves. With everything you need to know on the landing page, including the FAQs, Nimble has well and truly taken their customers' needs into consideration when creating their web copy. Complete with their famous calm and helpful tone, Nimble's web copy is the voice of reason when you're panicking about your overdue power bill.
A company's web copy can make or break their business. Not only does good website content help to improve your rankings in search engine results, but it also sets the tone for your brand. What do you want your brand to say?
Whether you're in an industry that allows you to go crazy with creativity or you're cruising in the corporate lane, it's worth asking yourself: should you break the mould or play it safe?

Current Wildfire Smoke Info
Smoke Outlook
The weather is forecast to change, and as a result, many of us will see some improvement in our air quality conditions, but relief is not likely to arrive until late in the weekend. However, if you are nearby one of the fires or in a more sheltered area where winds take longer to reach you, your clearing may be delayed in arriving or not show up at all! Some of us may simply get a different flavor of smoke as the old smoke just gets replaced with new smoke from a different direction. If you do get a break from the smoke, enjoy it while you can. A typical summer weather pattern is sure to return, and smoke will likely be in the forecast for many of us again before the season is over.

Visual Smoke Observation
Smoke forecasts are dependent on predicted fire growth and weather. If conditions change unexpectedly, impacts could occur. When visibility starts to go below 5 miles, sensitive groups should minimize outdoor activities. Everyone else should minimize prolonged or physical activity outdoors. Refer to the Smoke and Health Tab on the Idaho Smoke Information Blog for additional health information.
Your eyes are your best tools to determine if it's safe to be outside. Even if you smell smoke, the air quality may still be good.
Visibility Range
Health Category
Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups
Very Unhealthy
Less than 1
How to estimate air quality based on visibility for areas without an air quality monitor or airport visibility estimate:
- Face away from the sun.
- Determine the limit of your visible range by looking for targets at known distances (miles).
- Visible range is that point at which even high contrast objects totally disappear.
- Use the values above to determine the local forest fire smoke category.

Since we've started in late 2012 we've distributed over 3,000,000 ebooks to people just like you. That's a lot of exposure, and we have authors applying up to a year in advance to participate in upcoming bundles. Because of that, we're able to be very selective in the books and authors that we choose. We have a special team dedicated to curating the best books for you each bundle. Although the popularity of a book can be an indicator of it's value, we also try to find special books that may not have received the attention they deserve (yet).
In addition to finding the best books and authors in a particular niche, we also have a team dedicated to finding great businesses that share our vision. Although we provide them with incredible exposure to millions of like-minded folks like you, we don't charge them a single penny. Instead, we ask that they give you a "no-strings" attached offer to try out their product for free. There is usually a mix between physical products that need to be shipped and awesome software and/or membership software. You get to try out some incredible products with value FAR exceeds the cost of the bundle, and our bonus partners get their unique product in your sweet little hands. Everybody wins.
YES! Any PDF file can be transferred to your device of choice (see full instructions and tutorial videos on our full FAQ page), but we often offer the books formatted specifically for the Kindle and other eReader formats for a small additional cost. This means that you when you purchase the bundle as a full set of Kindle files (specifically formatted for eReaders) you still get the full set of PDFs (perfect for printing things like printables off of your computer).
You always have 3 full months to download your library. We'll also email you a couple of reminders with plenty of warning before your downloads expire.
Within minutes of your purchase, you will receive an email with login credentials for our access website, where you can directly download your files and also begin to redeem your bonus offers.

Black Americans Should Not Settle for Obama 09/08/2008
William Owens
Tue, 16 Sep 2008 11:09:05
Forget the Heritage thing just look at his voting record. I asked a very conservative (in the past) american who happends to have forefathers from west Africa if they would vote for T. Kennedy or B. Boxer for anything and they said No i ask why they said because their "Stances" where Non logical and not good for long term prosperity and Morality. Then i dared them to Check out Mr. Obama's voting record and not His Speeches. I don't know if they did or not but if they did they would have to admitt that to continue to support Him would only be because of ethnicity.
Tue, 16 Sep 2008 18:21:28
I find it reassuring that you have found the courage to warn people (not just Black people) about Barack Obama and what he stands for. I have a lot of Black friends who don't want entitlement or government hand-outs. They have proved that the racial barriers have (thankfully) pretty much fallen and I think that's a wonderful sign for America. Thank you very much for putting your finger on the issues and kudos to you for being so outspoken! I believe there's a lot more we will learn about Barack Obama and his misguided policies.

I was able to hear the broadcast today on KYCC, Point of View from Stockton, Ca. I am puzzled because you are making it seem like Obama would have the world in his hands to do whatever he pleases with our nation. Well, as you may know California passed the law/bill to endorse homosexual marriages this year. Now they say as California goes so goes the rest of the Country. Did Obama have anything to do with this? I don't think so. If I am wrong please point me to the evidence. It appears that the Repulicans has taken us down this dark, dreary road of failures in our country. Because of my own personal experiences(never been on welfare), I feel the new word for racist is Republican. We all need the Grace of God ask Jonah, Moses and others that God had to change and then use. Maybe you have not experienced this grace but have been your own savior. It is sad for our own race to keep fighting each other for the sake of self righteousness and not Godliness. If you do not have anything positive to say then you definitely should not become a sell out for those who want to keep us in oppression and will never be comfortable with our progression. The one thing I did not hear you speak of was the alternative and what policies they represent. When the blind lead the blind everybody fall in the whole. McCain has mentioned the black community and show little interest just to keep his nose clean. How will his policies help the American people especially Black Americans who most Republicans still think are not a people? Although we all should be able to be left alone and build our lives as best we can, we all should know that is not what everybody wants. If that was the case, the Hispanic community(illegal immigrants) would not be able to come to America and spend our tax dollars and trash our country while the Black community struggle with imprisonment, poverty, racism, higher costs for insurance and the list goes on. Nobody seems to think that is wrong. We helped build this country, made our bad decisions and only God can give us the chance to correct our problems because those who make policies now are not thinking about our family or future. But that does not mean that we turn our nose up because we have been brainwashed to think we can not think for ourselves. To be honest I can not believe you are able to publish a negative book about someone else who is still living and get monies for the work. I have to go for now but will continue my discussion at a later time.
Thu, 18 Sep 2008 07:43:04
I have been reading previous comments and I am saddened. People obviously don't know the history of our great country. I keep hearing comments like "the Republican party is racist". But, the Republican Party was started to prevent slavery from spreading to the new territories in the United States. The Democratic Party was for the spread of slavery. The Republican Party helped with the Civil rights movement, even Dr. Martin Luther King was a Republican. President Nixon tried to intercede on behalf of southern blacks against their white oppressors. The Democrats had a stronghold in the southern states throughout the civil rights movement. They wanted to keep segregation alive. It's sad to see that Americans today are being lied to about our history and are happy to accept the lies without checking into the facts. Instead of letting God to be our moral compass we are allowing others to define who we and what we believe.

This whole episode of Barack Obama reminds me of a scene from the movie Malcolm X when Malcolm (played by Denzel) was making a stump speech. He said: (black people) have been "hoodwinked and bamboozled." Initially, my wife and I supported Obama (went to a campaign opening, fundraiser and even bought some campaign buttons and T-shirts). After doing some research on him, I feel like I''ve been suckered. I'm of the opinion that black pastors and black church congregations around the country are in the same category.

William - the election is just a month away. Do you have plans to speak out publically in a very powerful way to reach the country with your powerful message. Time is running out and America needs to hear you speak out big time!!!! Why not a huge rally somewhere! America needs to hear that not all of black America is supporting Obama!! We need to hear what you have to say,l my friend, before it is too late and Obama is elected! Americans who are red, yellow, black and white are being deceived by this man Obama.... God help us!!!!
Thu, 09 Oct 2008 10:06:45
Mr. Owens thank you for writing the book Obama Why Black America Should Have Doubts. Often African-Americans are perceived as a mass instead of as individuals with different beliefs. I am one of the 8% of AAs that does not align herself with the "groupthink" philosophy.
Fri, 10 Oct 2008 05:25:52
This website is disturbing. Most of your comments are disturbing as well. You sit where you are and espouse the Republican rhetoric as if the Republican Party has done so much for Blacks. Maybe your are to wealthy to relate to what most Blacks are going through or you just don't care.
Fri, 24 Oct 2008 23:48:40
I am sooooo thankful for your standing. People automatically assume that if you're black, you're an Obama supporter. I beg to differ. One of our children asked their grandparents who they were voting for and they proudly stated "Obama". My nine year old then went on to say "grandad, you should look at his voting record, did you know he believe's in killing babies". Regardless, their grandparents, who are in ministry proudly voted for him in early elections. I also need to mention, having experienced the abortion process as a teen, it is humiliating as well as degrading. I don't believe people know the full extent of what happens to you emotionally, physically and spiritually. They fail to mention the torment that comes along with hearing your dead child cry. Only the grace of God and the blood of Jesus can and did free me! We are the only race of people that are not multiplying, but yet we'll vote for a man that we believe will increase us financially. I have been doing research for the past few months on both nominees. I can't watch mainstream media because it's too upsetting to know the information is right under our noses but for the most part people are too lazy to search out this "media appointed" moses that they think are going to deliver them. I too found out in my research that if 40% of Americans don't even pay taxes, how in the world will the 95% benefit? Obama's campaign is banking on the emotions, ignorance and hype of uninformed people. It sounds harsh but it's the truth. I also found out about the history of both parties. This was an eye opener for me. I had no idea that the KKK was formed from the Democratic party! Don't stop what you're doing. I pray for an open door for you before the elections that will allow people to second guess or atleast have the opportunity to research before making their vote.
Fri, 22 Oct 2010 07:46:08
Wake up CONFUSED BLACK PEOPLE HERE! OBAMA IS THE BEST PRESIDENT AMERICA HAS EVER HAD. AND HE IS THERE FOR BLACK PEOPLE. THE FACT THAT ALL THE RACIST WHITE FORCES ARE TRYING TO STOP HIM FROM MAKING REAL CHANGES DOES NOT TAKE IT AWAY FROM HIM THAT HE HAS OVERCOME OBSTACLES THAT NO WHITE PRESIDENT HAS EVER HAD AND WILL CONTINUE TO WITH GOD'S SUPPORT AND BLACK UNITY BEHIND HIM! DON'T DECEIVE YOURSELF IF YOU THINK ANY WHITE CANDIDATE CAN HELP YOU YOU ARE NOT FACING THE TRUTH! GOD HAS GIVEN US A REAL BLACK PRESIDENT SO LET'S GET BEHIND HIM,AND WITH PRAYERS AND HIS DETERMINATION HE WILL OVERCOME THIS RE-ACTIONARY WHITE FORCES. GET OUT AND VOTE TO BACK OBAMA! BLACK POWER IS NOW!

Semester I:
PL4201: Psychometrics and Psychological Testing.
PUBLIC IVLE link for the module
I took this because it was compulsory for my CDP course. It is usually taken by a particular prof (for the past 5 years?), but it changed during my semester, so it was very difficult to ask for opinions and tips from seniors. The prof took a lab class and most of his students followed him to this module, so I think he's a good prof. The downside to that is, you'll be at a little disadvantage if you havent taken his lab module before (just a little).
Workload: 18 % assignment, 32% Mid-terms, Final exam
Course material: One textbook
What I liked about the module: It was useful. You are being taught things that would be useful to know in the future (if you're dealing with scales and pscyh assessments). The assignment helps you to understand the content a lot more. It helps that the prof is friendly and helpful too. I also liked that you're graded on effort for assignments rather than correct answers.
What I didnt like about the module: The content can be dry at times, especially if you're not into stats and things like that. Being a H1 math person, the proving part of the module was a torture to me. I ended up memorising.
Good idea to take it?/advice: It really depends. The module was painful for me at times, but I recommend it to those who are on the path of being a researcher. Even if you're not, these are things that are good to know as a psych major. Painful, but useful (for me). There's also the satisfaction of understanding concepts when you actually do, so that's awesome too.
Grade I got: B+, which is really decent considering I was at the bottom of the class for mid terms (2 marks from failing). Managed to pull it up with finals I guess!
PL5221 Analysis of Psychological Data Using GLM.
This was another module that was compulsory for my CDProgramme. It's a level 5k module that psych honours student can also take if they want. It's quite tough to follow sometimes because of a combination of reasons: 1. The prof speaks fast and with an accent 2. the content by itself is tough. The mid terms were horrible for me. There was a SPSS component for mid terms and my computer crashed. ): In the end, the entire class did so badly they had a redo for it.
Workload: 30 % assignment, cant remember the percentage, but it may have been 35% mids and 35% finals or 30-40, respectively.
Course material: One textbook that you do not have to buy. You do not refer to it at all.
What I liked about the module: Again, it was useful. It was open book (not that it really helped a lot).
What I didnt like about the module: The content is quite tough. It was hard to follow at times. The assignments are trickier than it needs to be. Even after taking 3 modules under this prof, her accent still gets me.
Good idea to take it?/advice: It really depends again if you're planning to go on the researcher route. If you're not, then you can save yourself the trouble. This is more advanced than what you typically would need just to read journal papers. It's definitely not an easy A class. I hated the exam, up till now, we still have no idea how to solve on entire question and the prof wouldnt answer us ):
Grade I got: B+, I really feel like this one is a close shave. Not sure how I got B+, but I'm not complaining.
Semester II:
PL4228: Criminal Forensic Psychology
I've sort of always wanted to do this since I entered uni in year 1 because it's kinda cool, no? After I did my internship that involved some forensic work, I was even more keen. Well, it wasn't anything I expected. I think Forensic Psych has got many branches, but I feel like this one focuses more on the forensic mental health… rehabilitation and assessments. I guess it's probably because the profs are for MSF so they bring that kind of focus. Is it a bad module though? Definitely not. Still think I learnt a lot, even if it wasnt what I planned on learning in the first place. It kind of made me have a little more confidence in what our ministries are doing and it got me a little excited about research in this area as well. According to what I hear from my coursemates, everyone felt like it was too overrated. But I think it's not horrible, just not what everyone expected.
Workload: 40% Essay, 10% Class Part, 5% Presentation, 45% Finals.
Course material: Readings and powerpoint slides
What I liked about the module: It made me interested about threat assessments and research in this area. The profs were interesting and approachable.
What I didnt like about the module: The content and examples focuses a lot on sexual offenders, so I feel like it was quite limited. It wasn't what I expecting with very little forensic psych from the police perspective. I didn't quite like that the essay was so damn long too (4000 words essay, whut?!). THE FINALS. Although it was 50 MCQs. There were some MCQ questions that took up almost an entire page. Also, I felt like it was really really difficult. It was like things I would never have thought of even studying in the first place (or have no recollection of it ever appearing in readings, and I'm quite the kiasu person who reads things like 3 times)
Good idea to take it?/advice: Well, do you like learning about rehab and threat assessments? I feel like this is more of an "abnormal psych" kind of track, so it really depends on you. If you're deciding between this and another module, then just know that this isn't what is hyped up to be. You're not gonna be the next criminal minds, but you'll learn things. so what I'm saying is, be realistic about expectations. If you do take it though, the readings feel like they're more important than the lectures.
Grade I got: overall B+, (B for my 40% essay, A+ for presentation)
PL5222/PL5222R: Multivariate Statistics in Psychology
This was my prescribed module for CDP, so we had to take it since it was compulsory. We used R instead of SPSS and learnt things like MANOVA, latent growth model, discriminant analysis etc etc.
Workload: 50% Assignments, 50% Finals (open book)
Course material: Powerpoint slides and Readings (Do not really have to do it unless you dont get the lectures)
What I liked about the module: It was the mixed classroom approach thing. Means lecture was before you came to class via webcast, then you come in to discuss what you don't understand. I also liked that there were many useful assignments. The assignments were straightforward and focused on teaching you how to apply what you have learnt. It's also pretty chill so the prof will help you if you have problems with your assignment. It's not so much assessment as it is homework for your own learning. The prof is super patient and super knowledgeable. He explains things well and clearly. He answers your questions, even if he had already answered the same question 10 times already, with a lot of patience.
What I didnt like about the module: There are few things I disliked about the modules, so I wouldnt say I didnt like the following things, but more of sian. The mixed classroom approach thing. Took up super a lot of time. Though I think it's useful, it takes up much time. Assignments almost every week. Again, I find them very useful and necessary, but it sucks having to do assignments every week, especially if you have other modules too. Overall, nothing to hate about the module.
Good idea to take it?/advice: Are you doing research? If you are, good module to take. If you're not, I'm not sure if you'll enjoy it. It's not the most exciting module, but it's useful. Do the assignments BEFORE class. It helps heaps. Just try to keep up with the webcast lecture and assignments. Ask the moment you catch no ball. If you know what's going on, you'll do fine. The exam is not tricky, it's straightforward, so you just have to know your stuff. It's reasonable.
Grade I got: A
PL5225/PL5225R: Structural Equation Modelling
This module was taught by the same prof as PL5222. I had intended to take this on an S/U basis because my prof said that it was useful for my thesis and told me to take it. Prof Mike (the module prof) told me to just take it as a graded mod. So in the end, I took it as a graded module to clear my honours requirement. Didn't regret it because I would've needed to put in the same amount of effort anyway.
Workload: 50% Assignments, 50% Finals (open book)
Course material: Powerpoint slides and Readings (Do not really have to do it unless you dont get the lectures)
What I liked about the module: Everything I said for PL5222 under this section applies here too. On top of that, I like how useful SEM is. In fact if you have to choose between PL5222 and this, choose this. It allows you to make your experiment more complex and all.
What I didnt like about the module: Everything I said for PL5222 under this section applies here too. What I didn't like initially was that the learning curve was super steep. It's difficult to understand things in the beginning, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes a little bit more intuitive.
Good idea to take it?/advice: It's a very useful module and you get to learn how to use R, which is a useful program to learn (same for PL5222). The prof is good and helpful. Assignments are manageable and finals are open book, what's there not to like? haha. The exam is not tricky and it's reasonable. It requires you to think, yes, but it's not unreasonable.
Grade I got: A

All the imaginable effects you can think of, these lightroom presets will cover it for you.
No need to dig further online for that ultimate tool for your photos, even a single lightroom preset is more than enough of presenting your image in a unique and diversified way.
What is lightroom preset? It is your tool for that beautiful image you have. This is the tool you need to tag along as soon as you make enhancements with these photos. Enough of that age old tool already for your photographs, and start cashing in on these lightroom presets.
There are a lot of lightroom presets online, so start downloading the best for your photo images.

Redmond-based software giant Microsoft has been long rumored to plan the launch of a Surface Phone, something that did not happen so far, but that might become a reality now that the company bought Nokia.
While it might take a while before such a device is actually built and brought to the market, this does not prevent enthusiasts from dreaming of the day when the smartphone is made official.
Of course, there's no info available on what the phone would have to offer and what it would look like, but one designer took their time to envision what users could receive in case Microsoft is indeed building such a device.

It's really good when you make it yourself, from wild yeasts, and let it go for 24 hours of slow fermentation. It feels different, tastes, different, is different.
And I love lots of raisins in it.
I got the chance to talk for awhile with the master baker at Hungry Ghost Bread in Northampton, MA, where they make some of the best breads I've had in recent years. He railed on the gluten-mania dominating discussion of bread these days and insisted that the problem is with the industrial yeast used to speed bread manufacture, and other additives. Slow-rising natural yeasts consume the gluten and break it down, he said.
I don't know if any of my gluten-free friends would be willing to test this out with my bread, though.

Lives in Ontario, Canada with her husband, daughter, two black pugs, one cat and one kitten, empty hamster cage, empty bird cage, and empty fish tank.

You know that old joke?
There is a joke that I heard once. It is a derogatory one, dealing with a minority or ethnic group. Which group? Doesn't matter really. But it goes like this. Why don't factories like to employ (insert minority group here)? Because they have to retrain them after every break. Now, it's a bad joke no matter what you insert in there. And it has nothing to do with any minority or nationality. But I have always found, that after a major holiday (especially this time of year when we have two in rapid succession and many people take vacation time in between), I can make my OWN observation. "The problem with office workers, is that they need to be retrained after every day off". For gracious sakes! Could another thing go wrong today? Even the simplest of tasks needs "fixing". By the time I read, comprehend, and start to answer one request, another one comes flinging into my e-mail. The phone has been ringing off the hook (and dd is pouting because it is "never for her". And DH is pouting because he wants to use the phone and I won't let him. And I am pouting because I am tired of answering the phone ROFL). Yesterday was busy, but NORMAL busy. My normal every day deadline, maintenance, check this and start that busy. Today? Today is FREAKING CRAZY. This morning, DD got up, wandered down here rubbing her eyes, yawning, and requested pancakes. Well, crepes specifically. There is no way in heck I had time to make crepes, especially since DH and DD can eat their weight in them faster than I can flip them off the pan. I suggested cereal. She then requested a more reasonable breakfast of poached eggs. On toast with no crust. And bacon. And some potatoes would be nice, if we have them. Where did this kid come from? I sent her back upstairs to hassle her father for the queen's breakfast she wanted. She got cereal ROFLMAO. Poor kid. It's not even sugar cereal. We deprive her, it's like it's our duty or something. Ruby is in her glory. The people across the street have a junk hauler there, with work men going in and out. If there is anything Ruby loves, it is barking her fool head off at trucks and work men. She keeps asking to go outside so she can throw herself into that habit with true abandon. We are talking taking a little hop with every bark, strip down her back raised (do pugs have hackles?), spitting when she barks. Once the truck leaves I am sure she will sleep all afternoon, worn out from her fun. DD has a friend over right now. Dh stepped out to get some things, and boy is he going to be ticked off when he comes back. But come on, the kid has been cooped up here for days and days. She has nowhere else to go, and she wants to PLAY with somebody. So I am sure later on this evening we will have a nice argument about the mess and that kind of stuff. Perhaps I should pencil it in, with work being this busy I anticipate having to work late. Boy, I hope we have enough cereal for dinner. *SNORK!*
