Essay writing seems very difficult to some student; they think that they can not write. Though they are very knowledgeable and intelligent, they are not able to write a piece of their own.
To some extent it is true that writing is not everybody's cup of tea but if a person is keen to learn, nothing is impossible in this world. If a person is consistent in his aims and goals he can rule the world; he can make impossible things possible. Same is the case with essay writing; it needs hardworking and practice; the more you write the more your writing style and language will be polished and within a short span of time you will be included among those who are called the best essay writers.
There are certain skills required for essay writing. First of all you need to analyze the title or topic of the essay on which you are asked to write essay. Once you completely understand what the title says next step is to collect information and facts using various source like print or electronic source. After gathering information you need to highlight the most important and less important things in order to prioritize your task. After that, comes the writing process; once you start writing there are few things which should be kept in mind.
First you should not try to overwhelm your essay with difficult words, lengthy sentences and stylish writing style. Always remember, your essay should be written in such a way that it can be understandable to every person; difficult words and lengthy sentences may lose readers' attention.
A writer should know his readers; according to the comprehension level of reader a writer should create his piece of writing. If you are writing for children, the language should be simple and easy but if it is for intellectuals the language can avoid simplicity.
What Are The Basic Skills Required For Essay Writing?
Essay writing seems very difficult to some student; they think that they can not write. Though they are very knowledgeable and intelligent, they are not able to write a piece of their own.

"Today, religion is constantly posed with a question on its meaning of existence in the modern world. Does this mean that faith, and the act of faith are disappearing? The story begins from a question on whether primitive beliefs incarnate in the 'materials' that we consider as secular or conventional, in all the places that have been separated from religion. Through the activities of a web-based exploration society which studies various materials (gold, meteorite, sun), we look into traces of folk belief/worship of the Elements/worship of nature and track the structure of belief."

Welcome to the Recap. My comments are in Bold.
EDTA.com 18 years old. Great American LLLL.com A for association or aardvark
EDTA.com: $6,505. Really too bad there isn't a double A. Could have been the Aardvark Association.
4UP.com Doing well. The younger, more handsome brother of 7 UP
4UP.com: $525 Well it is short so I like that. This just makes me think of "Threw up".
TNYL.com The New York Ladies aka the knicks
TNYL.com: $321. I can't come up with anything else after reading that.
CTCJ.com Chinese name that will probably hit $750. Just guessing other than the fact that its almost already there
CTCJ.com: $600. CT is the abbreviation for Court. This must stand for Court CJ. And if any of you remember CJ from Baywatch…
XFRK.com $1000
XFRK.com: $950.
Legr.com A typo for lego. Actually not even close and the wrong fingers.
Legr.com: $553. I saw Ledger. Love it for that use. Great accounting domain imo. Decent Price too.
ZombieFanatics.com With Walking Dead there certainly are plenty of these out there. No bidders
ZombieFanatics.com: 5 days left. There is a walking dead cruise and everything. I would say that is Fanatical.
IrishTaverns.com There are several in every city. No bidders. At $1
IrishTaverns.com: 5 days left. I would LOVE it without the S. This just feels like a directory domain. Still solid.
LCFE.com Sedo has had some great value on LLLL.com. Very flippable on Godaddy.
LCFE.com: $398. Easy, I would guess you could almost double that in a month at GD.
SEMForum.com Don't be distracted by the ugly mug of the seller. This is a nice name
SEMForum.com: Sold by Buy It Now $1,100. Solid name. I would do a forum. That is a beautiful picture of Mike.. But where is his Country Arbors Nursery Visor?
Data.me I think the current price is a good value considering the keyword. But reserve isn't met yet
Data.me: Auction ended unsold for $1,150. This is a monster keyword, I wouldn't have sold either.
Noona.com I love these types of 5N.coms Worth $300 or more IMO
Noona.com: Auction ended unsold with 4 bids for $300. The owner thought the "or more" part of that statement was preferable.
GoldenSnowball.com Interesting site for sale. So glad its not a snowball with pee on it
GoldenSnowball.com: Auction ended unsold with 3 bids at $300.
LUS.com It's a 20 year old three letter dot com. Nothing left to say

DULO.com: 146 bids from 135 bidders for $6,000, reserve was not met. Wonder what the reserve was because that is a pretty strong bid. Nice name though.
DoNotEat.com No bidders. Worth a few hundred at least just for a site name
DoNotEat.com: 28 bids from 25 bidders for $99. Under a hundred bucks and a cool name. wonder if this will be developed.
DirectLoan.com Ironically, might need a loan in order to afford this one
DirectLoan.com: I want a Beat Around The Bush Loan.
OOOS.com Surprised this hardly has any bidders
OOOS.com: 115 bids from 76 bidders for $1,500. OOO'S and Ahhh's.
Z8.org I don't know much about CC.orgs. But I'll know a little more after the end of the auction
Z8.org: 83 bids from 70 bidders for $1,200. I really like this one. I know it is a .org but still solid.
RentThisRoom.com Only two bidders
RentThisRoom.com: $576. Awesome name. I think it is worth a lot more than this.
No Result List- Results may be added at a later date.
StopSucking.com Not sure if there's any value but great sports training or motivation name. No bidders
StopSucking.com: LMFAO. You can send invites to people to stop sucking.
7058.com Boooooorrrring. Only at $29,500
7058.com: I know someone saw this one end, Price?…. I don't get out of bed unless it is a 50k initial offer.
FHHP.com 41 visitors per month which is pretty good for a non developed LLLL.com
FHHP.com: Not bad at all. Looks like there might be a medical brand called Family Heart Health Program.
Gab.cc One of the better dot cc names in a while
Gab.cc: Agreed. But I don't really keep on the .cc market. So there is that.

The Guardian Knights had stolen The Staff from Quintessa to prevent her from using it to destroy Earth.
The Knights' ship was buried in a hill in England where King Arthur his Knights of the Round Table were battling against Saxons and were counting on the alcoholic wizard Merlin to retrieve the staff to guarantee their victory. A red armored knight, , gave Merlin the staff.
The Staff
The Knights had been in stasis guarding Merlin's tomb deep in the waters near Britain.
One of the Knights of Iacon, Steelbane, was in a crashed ship in the half of the ruined area of Chicago.

You ATTRACT those who have the SAME qualities as yourself. No maybe not all. However, there is truth to this statement whether you want to admit it or not.
'Trash attracts trash, and class attracts class.'
While pretty woman is a great movie, People with morals, self respect and dignity are looking for people with Morals, self respect and dignity.
Male or female, people who don't have drama in their life, aren't just leaving it out so that someone can come along and put it there.
Now I don't mean this to offend anyone or put anyone down. But just food for thought, you can't only put out garbage and complain if the garbage man is the only one who comes along to collect.
just random thoughts .Have a lovely day!

Teaching Artist
"Thanks so very much for inspiring our students. I admire your mixture of unconditional support with uncompromising truth."
Jeff Page, MFA
Theatre Educator and Director
Artists are problem-solvers and life-long learners, constantly striving to improve, deepen and refine their artistic expression. They work specifically with the skills of creativity: discovery, wonder, and recombining the elements of the world into new knowledge. Teaching artists help provide a tangible link between the creative process and learning.
STUDENTS- Artist-In-Residency
Grades K-12
For many years, I have been making significant contributions to the field of arts education. Through arts education programs, I have used the creative process to bring learners into arts experiences. I am committed to integrating the arts throughout the curriculum as a way of engaging all types of intelligence's in the learning process. I am qualified for instructing workshops, artist-in-residencies and directing productions with K-12 grades. I have created plays with students on such curriculum topics as Ancient Greece, Alberta's History, First Nations, Math Formulas and Wetlands. As well, I have created original plays based on the imagination of the students!
TEACHERS- Professional Development
I also offers workshops for teachers and faculty as a means of developing their community and communication with students. These workshops also evoke joy and laughter, as participants will surprise themselves and each other with their creative brilliance. A general workshop focuses on games, ensemble work, team building exercises, improvisation and tools for creating curriculum-based theatre. I also teaches intensives on topics such as Directing, Playwrighting, Mask and Improvisation. These focused workshops are ideal for Junior and Senior High Drama Instructors.
I offers expertise in areas such projects as School Plays or Concerts (Christmas Pageant). I'm able to direct students in a manner that builds their confidence and allows them to express their creativity.

Christmas is next week! Are you still not sure what to get your loved ones? When in doubt, get them something they can pamper themselves with. After all, who doesn't appreciate a gift of beauty? Some of these gifts can also be your stocking stuffer. I found these five last minute gifts anyone can appreciate. Ok, lets go down the list.
1. Clarisonic for face and body is my number one go to gift. It's like having a large electric toothbrush but for the face. What's not to like? Makes me feel pampered every time. Your hubby can use it too. Just give him his own detachable brush. Unisex all the way!
2. Not sure what to give a guy in your life? Spice up that stocking with something personal, like a sexy shaving kit by Baxter, to keep him looking delicious year-round.
3. Looking for a gift anyone can appreciate? Try the Moroccan amber reed diffuser by Nest fragrances-includes notes of Moroccan amber, sweet patchouli, heliotrope and bergamot that are accented with a hint of eucalyptus. Mmmm…smells amazing!
4. For a lipstick hoarder-pick up a Holiday lip set full of minis! This Bare Essential Buxom Serial Kisser is a five mini lipsticks in a festive red colors with names like "Menace" and "Provocateur". This smooth, creamy, ultra-hydrating lipsticks offers a major plumping effect without the usual tingle. Did I mentioned it comes in a velvet box?
5.This little hand cream set by L'Occitane is a perfect stocking stuffer. A trio of delicately scented, limited-edition hand creams enriched with 20 percent shea butter to nourish, protect, and hydrate. Even the packaging looks festive. You can find them at Sephora

Malcolm Shanks is a sad and lonely man, deaf, mute and living with his cruel sister and her husband, who delight in making him miserable. His only pleasure, it seems, is in making and controlling puppets. Thanks to his skill, he is offered a job as a lab assistant to Dr. Walker, who is working on ways to re-animate dead bodies by inserting electrodes at key nerve points and manipulating the bodies as if they were on strings. When the professor suddenly dies one night, Shanks gets the idea to apply their experimental results to a human body, and then to start exacting some revenge.

Robert H (de) wrote: With a name like Eddie: The Sleepwalking Cannibal I was totally expecting laugh out loud funny moments sprinkled with the odd bloody undertaking. What I got was nothing at all what I expected. Eddie is more a black comedy then the comedy I was expecting and even that would be pushing it. The comedy aspects are very light and dry and as such, often unnoticeable. The story itself is an interesting one and I did enjoy this joint Canadian Denmark production. I found the character development and even story development to be somewhat lacking. Essentially the film introduces everyone. Eddie kills. Lars paints. Rinse, repeat a couple times. End film. There was so much possibility that was just left unexplored. I'm ok with the low amount of gore considering the subject matter but it would have been nice to have ramped it up a few notches too LOLThe film's original idea and comment on the art community are what keeps this film interesting otherwise it would be skating on thin ice and likely would break through and drown.
Heather M (au) wrote: This is perhaps the strangest take on the story of Robin Hood that I have ever watched. What is up with that crazy rip between two worlds in Sherwood Forest and why hasn't it ever been mentioned before? The last 5 minutes between Marian and Robin Hood were cute but don't make up for the rest of the problems with the plot, the acting and the special effects. I highly recommend skipping this one.
Barry P (ru) wrote: Original idea, which is not common in this day and age in my opinion, which is relatively well executed. I find the Robin William's critical comments hard to work out. He plays the deliberately taciturn lead amazingly well.
Loyal D (br) wrote: The best of the trilogy in my opinion because the humor has a more wide range. It is a good film and is underrated compared to the other films. It may be a guilty pleasure, but regardless it is a solid family sports movie and trilogy!

Ian R (es) wrote: TRULY brilliant and inspiring.
Matthew D (jp) wrote: As an impartial look at the Israeli-Palestine conflict this is important and that it mostly manages to do so is impressive given the set-up of following the Israeli revenge squad. However, Spielberg once again jettisons history for story, but the message is obvious within minutes and the philosophical and discussion very artificial (and they are pretty unlikely to have taken place). Spielberg as always gets fine performances from his perfect casting, but he fails to create suspense and by the end of nearly three hours it loses its way, much like the main character, and any engagement gets lost.
Jennifer L (nl) wrote: Very stylish movie centred around the drug gangs of Rustov-on-Don, Russia - however, it could be set in just about any mid to large-sized city as its themes & plot lines are universal. Flashy, yet fairly realistic.

Hot weather and tiki drinks have long shared a blissful relationship. It's something we're reminded of every time we succumb to Makan's all too-tasty Seoul Slinger cocktail. Served up in a ceramic tiki cup, the tropical concoction transports us from the sizzling Atlanta summer to a breezy beach miles and miles away.
Our suggestion? Hit up this downtown Decatur restaurant and order a round of these isle-inspired drinks at the cool, spacious bar. If you're hungry, chow on the Korean spicy ramen, the spicy wontons in chili oil and the watermelon salad—hit the restaurant on Sundays for a dim sum brunch. Just make sure you've got a designated driver (or your Uber app) at the ready when it's time to leave. These Seoul Slingers pack a boozy punch!
Makan's Seoul Slinger
1 ounce light (silver) rum
1 ounce spiced rum
1/4 ounce maraschino liquor
¾ ounce orgeat syrup
¾ ounce cucumber juice
1 ounce pineapple juice
2 dashes orange bitters
Mix all ingredients together and shake with ice. Pour all contents in a large tiki mug, top with fresh ice. Garnish with fresh fruit slices like cherry, orange and pineapple as well as cucumbers. Enjoy.

Photo: Chinese Army now GMO-Free!
So THIS is how China will conquer the world–or, at least, North Americans!The Chinese Army has BANNED all Genetically Modified (GMO) grains and oils! The reason: Health and safety concerns.
Way to go, China! Bans are happening little-by-little all over the world–except North America, of course–where Monsanto and other mega-corporations rule local and national governments and politicians. The BIG Island of Hawaii is ONE exception, having recently banned all GMO crops from the Island (with exception of papaya)
The ban by China's army is, in fact, a step towards a country-wide ban by the Chinese government on import of all GMO grains and oils. It's expected to happen within the next 2 years. Why the BAN? Answer: Growing public concern over GMO health and safety. Apparently, public opinion is better at prodding public officials in China than it is in North America. Too little is happening toward outright bans in either the United States or Canada! The struggle here is STILL primarily to just get Genetically Modified Organisms LABELLED!
Kudos to China, and to China's now-free-of-GMO-grains-and-oils army! The expected BAN will be a HUGE blow to the Biotech industry worldwide. [For more information, see China Protects Its Army From GMOs.]

Advances in Consumer Research Volume 16, 1989 Pages 180-188
Aida N. Rizkalla, Rutgers University
In this study, an experimental design was used to test a causal model that relates temporal orientation to attitude towards shopping, point-of-purchase information acquisition, and consumer well-being. The results indicate that sense of time urgency is negatively related to attitude towards shopping, information acquisition, and consumer well-being. In addition, LISREL VI was used to test alternative causal models. Four models fit the data when only the overall fit was considered. However, when the measurement model was considered separately, only two models fit the data.
Time as a subject of inquiry has attracted thinkers over the ages, across cultures and disciplines, including a long list of contemporary social scientists in sociology, anthropology, and psychology (Fraser 1967; Cottle 1976; Doob 1971; Wessman 1913). Recently the treatment of time as a major variable in understanding consumer behavior has accelerated (Mattson 1982; Graham 1981).
Some philosophers view time as an external reality, others see it as a phenomenological internal reality. This division of beliefs focuses on the objective an subjective aspects of time respectively.
Research on time and consumer behavior, with few exceptions, has focused on objective/economic time. This perspective, however important, is only one of several possible perspectives. Wessman (19733 points out that the use of physical time in the description of human behavior is often artificial and misleading because it fails to account for the fact that human time estimates rarely match clock and calendar time, and that societies and individuals demonstrate vast differences in their constructions and uses of time.
The study of psychological time takes the perspective that individuals vary in their time perception and time orientation. As observed by Wallace and Rubin (1960), time perception studies deal with extra-individual conditions where characteristics of stimuli are defined by the experimenter and involve relatively brief periods of time. While time orientation studies deal with intra-individual phenomena and span longer periods of time. Sense of time urgency is one aspect of this last category.
Studies indicate that some people possess specific personality characteristics that make them more sensitive to time than others. The identification of a particular time attitude that was characterized as a "chronic, incessant struggle to achieve more and more in less and less time" surface in the clinical practice of two cardiologists who in the 1960's observed a characteristic "action- emotion complex" among patients who they had over a number of years. Although the initial focus of their research on cardiovascular disease was on the role of cholesterol and metabolic disturbances, they came to recognize a recurrent syndrome of overt "Type A" behaviors manifested by their patients who were predominantly male executives (Friedman and Rosenman 1959). A central component of this behavioral syndrome was the sense of time urgency. In subsequent papers, the time urgent Type A person was characterized as anxious to fill up time with purposeful goal-oriented behavior, to accelerate the rate of all activities, and to be excessively punctual and time oriented (Matthews 1982).
There has been increasing interest in fleshing out personality dimensions of pattern A behavior. Wessman (1973) studied the relationship between personality and subjective time and found out hat people who feel harassed by, or lack control over time tended to be highly emotional, nervous, and apprehensive. In addition, they appear to have high degree of imaginative fantasy and self-absorption. On the other hand, people who feel relaxed displayed low emotionality, confidence, calmness, ability to cope with stress, and orientation to the here and now. The author stated that "characteristic ways of experiencing and utilizing time vary greatly among individuals, among dimensions that can be assessed and measured, and that these differences are meaningfully related to personality characteristics, p 103."
The importance of time urgency in Type A behavior was experimentally investigated. Bortner and Rosenman (1967) indicate that time-conscious people who work near maximum speed, have difficulty slowing down and overreact when required to slow down. Glass, Snyder and Hollis 1974) found that A's became more impatient and irritated when their activities are needlessly delayed by others.
The purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between this sense of time urgency and consumer well-being. Generally, no empirical study tried to address this issue. Nevertheless, from the reviewed literature, a consensus has emerged that sense of time urgency is associated with negative rather.than pleasant emotional states. As concluded by Calabresi and Cohen (1968), persons who are anxious and pressured about time tend to lack self-confidence and to express feelings of frustration. In Wessman's study (1973) time pressured persons are emotional, apprehensive, and nervous. Ln Glass, Snyder, and Hollis' study (1974), time pressured persons are likely lo be impatient, and according to Type A literature, time pressured persons, though hard-driving and hard-working, do not usually derive enjoyment from what they do. This sense of time urgency may bc related to consumer well-being. This relationship, however, may be mediated by attitude towards shopping and shopping behavior.
The concept of consumer well-being is widely diffused throughout the social sciences and throughout the public-policy formulating universe. Surnayi-Unger (1981) stated that "whatever the disciplinary frame reference may be, the questions underlying individual well-being are always: How well off is a person? In what sense is individual A 'better off than individual B? And, in what sense is A better off under one set of circumstances than another?, p. 132."
Consumer well-being can be viewed and measured in different ways. At one extreme, it can be expressed in physical and biological terms; at the other extreme, it can be viewed as a state of happiness (Suranyi-Unger (1981). Whatever the view and definition may be, the concept is al the heart of the marketing concept since it reflects the extent to which the individual's wants are satisfied.
Consumer satisfaction, as a subjective indicator of well-being, is assumed to be the direct result of marketing activities. However, consumer satisfaction could also be related to the consumer instead of, or in addition to, marketplace limitations (Westbrook and Newman 1978).
It is commonly assumed that by doing a thorough search for information on a product prior to purchase an by doing careful comparison shopping, a consumer will make better decisions and then be more satisfied with the product purchased. Jacoby (1974) presented the results of two experiments designed to ascertain the influence of the amount of information available to a consumer on his/her ability to make a correct choice. The authors also suggested that satisfaction may be related to purchase decision activity. This and other studies found that feelings of satisfaction with brand choice decisions increased as respondents were exposed to greater amounts of prepurchase information. Gardozo (1965) for example, found that feelings of satisfaction with a chosen product were positively related to the effort expanded by the individual in making the choice.
Westbrook and Newman (1978) found that dissatisfaction is inversely related to the number of retail stores visited, consultation of neutral information sources such as Consumer Reports, and asking advice from personal sources such as friends, neighbors, and relatives
Hendrix (1979) stated that "how consumers spend their time is determined by factors other than demographic and economic variables, p.35." The author called these facto s antecedents and identified temporal orientation as one of them.
One of the major theories dealing with the determinants of consumers' search activities is the "economics of information". This theory is used extensively by economists (Stingler 1961). Its basic argument is that consumers will search as long as the marginal gains from this activity are higher than the marginal costs. Hornik (1984) pointed out that even the use of economic time to explain buying behavior implies some recognition of "psychological time". He stated that "individual differences occur because consumers differ in their value of time, which is though to be subjectively valued according to the opportunity cost rule, p.20."
Consumers can be seen to vary greatly in the amount of time they are willing and able to devote to the marketplace (Strober and Weinberg 1980; Jacoby 1974; Bettman 1979; McCall 19775. McGrath and Rotchford (1983) pointed out that individuals in either relaxed or harried situation can either decrease or increase, respectively, the number of activities to be performed and/or the time requirements associated with those activities.
An important branch of research concerns itself with shopping orientation. The aim is to develop a typology of shoppers, using time devoted to the act of shopping and the enjoyment derived from the activity as classification criteria. Jacoby, Szybillo, and Berning (1976) pointed out that for some people shopping may be a very enjoyable use of time without respect to the purchase of goods or services. Bellenger, Robertson, and Greenberg (1977) suggested that shoppers who value convenience exhibit a strong negative interest in shopping as a leisure activity. Tatzel (1982) described the apathetic consumer as one who does not like to shop and wants to get through the task with minimum time and efforts and cares more about convenience than price. Bellenger and Korgaonkar (1980) stated that recreational shopping and information seeking are closely associated. Beathy and Smith (1987) viewed attitude towards shopping as an alternative construct, combining the individual's beliefs about shopping benefits under the particular decision task examined. The authors found that attitude towards shopping has a great impact on total search.
Marketing literature on negative shopping attitudes suggests a relationship to a larger set of personality traits. Tatzel (1982) noted that shopping has anxiety-producing aspects, including coping with crowds and salespeople. McNeal (1985) suggested that both neurotics and antishoppers portray a set of negative traits. More specifically, low self-esteem, distrust, feelings of being threatened, rigid attitudes and pessimistic outlooks. Some of these characteristics are found to be related to a sense of time urgency (Calabresi and Cohen 1968; Wessman 1973)
The Proposed Model
Based on the previous literature review, a causal model that relates sense of time urgency and attitude towards shopping to point-of-purchase information acquisition and consumer well-being is proposed (Model 1, Figure 1). This causal model is based on the following propositions:
1. Sense of time urgency is negatively related to attitude towards shopping.
2. Sense of time urgency is negatively related to information acquisition.
3. Attitude towards shopping is positively related to information acquisition.
4. Information acquisition is positively related to consumer well-being.
Different pre-tests were undertaken to select the items to be included in sense of time urgency and attitude towards shopping scales, to select the two experimental products, to identify the evaluative criteria and the weights given to them by consumers, and to test familiarity with the two products selected for the study. Coefficient alpha was used to assess the reliability of the two scales (Table 1). In addition LISREL VI was used to fit one-factor confirmatory model. The results indicate unidimensionality (p> .05).
To test the causal model, a 350 female heads of household were contacted in person. The subjects represented a wide array of demographic and socioeconomic backgrounds. A total of 320 respondents completed the pre-experimental questionnaire that included sense of time urgency scale and demographic characteristics. From a total of 309 valid questionnaires, 80 respondents were selected to participate in the experiment; 40 of them scored high on sense of time urgency scale and the other 40 scored low .
Three weeks after completing the preexperimental questionnaire, these 80 respondents were randomly assigned to one of the four experimental situations which combined two products (a pair of dressy shoes/dinnerware) and two decision times (two minutes/no time constraints). Subjects were presented with an information board of the type used in previous studies. Ten hypothetical brands of shoes or dinnerware were presented to the subject along with 20 different attributes that resulted form the pretest.
To avoid task complexity, each information dimension was simplified so that only a single bit would be required to determine the specific value involved. To avoid order bias, both brands and attributes were rotated. The information board was explained to the subject by the interviewer. Subjects were told that they could take information from anywhere, in any order, as much or as little as they like. Also they were told that they can keep the acquired information with them until they make their decisions or stopped after two minutes.
In order to measure the specific attitude towards shopping for either a new pair of shoes or dinnerware, each subject was presented with the eight-item scale that had passed the reliability test right before the experiment. Immediately after the experiment, subjects were asked to indicate their satisfaction with the choice they have just made.
In order to test the hypothesized causal model, LISREL VI was used. Table 2 indicates the correlation matrix. As shown in Table 3, Chi-Square, Goodness of Index (GFI), Adjusted Goodness of Fit Index (AGFI), and Root Mean Square Residual (RMR) indicate very good fit. However, when the average variance extracted was used to test discriminant validity, here was a problem. As it is indicated in Table 3, for the third and fourth constructs, the shared variance for the specific construct is less than the variance due to another construct (.685 and .778 arc less than 1.228)
There are other plausible alternative models (Figure 1) that are conceptually consistent with the original model. Fornell (1983) stated that any modifications in the original model should be based on a substantive theory. The literature review indicates that lack of confidence, frustration, speed, anxiety, -and impatience are major traits for those persons who seem to be rushed and pressured for time (Friedman and Rosenman 1959; Wessman 1973; Calabresi and Cohen 1968), and for those persons who dislike shopping (Tatzel 1982; McNeal 1985).
Table 3 summarizes the results of LISREL analysis. As shown in the table, the overall fit as it is measured with X2, GFL AGFI, and RMR, is very high for the four alternative models. However only two of them (Model 3 and Model 4) satisfy the requirement for discriminant validity. Comparing LISREL estimates for these two competing models indicate that Model 3 is better than Model 4 since the decrease in X2 is only .69 for one df.
This study has certain limitations. The sample is relatively small and consists of females only, the experimental setting was artificial, and the brands used in the experiment were hypothetical. Nevertheless, the results are generally positive. The results of the experiment indicate that consumers who feel rushed and pressured tend to dislike shopping and acquire less information which might in turns affect their well-being.
Much has been written and said about the 'leisure Society' in U.S. Yet many people feel rushed and pressured for time. Undoubtedly, understanding how this feeling might affect consumer behavior will help us in making decisions regarding market segmentation and marketing mix. For example, the results of this study suggest that temporal orientation (Harried/Relaxed)might be used as a basis of marketing segmentation.
To conclude this paper, the following recommendations are worthwhile;
1. Since shopping is a time consuming activity, it is important to consider consumers temporal orientation. It seems that some consumers are harried and others are relaxed.
2. The same causal model(s) can be tested using different methods and different operationalizations. In this study a lab experiment was used and information acquisition was viewed from a point-of-purchase perspective. Replication is worthwhile using different methods and different operationalizations to see if the same results can be reached (ongoing research).
3. Using LISREL as an analytical technique can be very misleading. Unless there is a very good theory, substantive and measurement, LISREL may not be the appropriate analytical technique. Reviewing the literature indicates that most researchers report only the model's overall fit. However, it is equally important to report the analysis of measurement model. Undoubtedly, a good theory will help solving the problem of alternative explanations, and good measures will guide against interpretational confounding. The use and abuse of LISREL is a subject of ongoLng research.

Author: Azar Nafisi
Release Date: March 25th, 2003
Publisher: Random House
Genre: Non-Fiction
Book Jacket: "We all have dreams---things we fantasize about doing and generally never get around to. This is the story of Azar Nafisi's dream and of the nightmare that made it come true.
For two years before she left Iran in 1997, Nafisi gathered seven young women at her house every Thursday morning to read and discuss forbidden works of Western literature. They were all former students whom she had taught at university. Some came from conservative and religious families, other were progressive and secular; several had spent time in jail. They were shy and uncomfortable at first, unaccustomed to being asked to speak their minds, but soon they began to open up and to speak more freely, not only about the novels they were reading but also about themselves, their dreams and disappointments. Their stories intertwined with those they were reading---Pride and Prejudice, Washington Square, Daisy Miller and Lolita---their Lolita, as they imagined her in Tehran.
Nafisi's account flashes back to the early days of the revolution, when she first started teaching at the University of Tehran amid the swirl of protests and demonstrations. In those frenetic days, the students took control of the university, expelled faculty members and purged the curriculum. When a radical Islamist in Nafisi's class questioned her decision to teach The Great Gatsby, which he saw as an immoral work that preached falsehoods of 'the Great Satan,' she decided to let him put Gatsby on trial and stood as the sole witness for the defense.
Azar Nafisi's luminous tale offers a fascinating portrait of the Iran-Iraq war viewed from Tehran and gives us a rare glimpse from the inside, of women's lives in revolutionary Iran. It is a work of great passion and poetic beauty, written with a startlingly original voice.
Taryn's Review: This book was a mixed bag for me. I absolutely adored sections of the book and was in awe of the beautiful prose that Nafisi put on paper for us to read. No doubt, her knowledge of Western literature is advanced, and I enjoyed reading her and her students' discussions on many works of literature.
In the same token, there were some sections I literally had to force myself to finish. Sometimes I would be reading and wonder why exactly she found this event to be crucial to add to this book. Some chapters felt like I was dragging my eyes across the pages against theirwill since I just couldn't get into what she was saying.
Nafisi's life within Iran is fascinating and terrifying all at once. I have never lived under a regime so intolerant of women and this book really opened my eyes to the simple rights of life that were taken away from these women. Nafisi didn't convey throughout the book if she was ever truly afraid of what was going on around her; she often seemed more angry than anything. And the varying opinions of the reality of life in Iran from the women participating in the reading group was really inspiring.
This book is not for all types readers. I would highly recommend that if you plan on reading this book, you should have some knowledge of classic novels like The Great Gatsby, Daisy Miller, Lolita, and more. She often used them to make parallels to life in Iran and if you don't know about the plot and characters of these books, you might find yourself uninterested in Nafisi's point-of-view and her book.

Lake Michigan dominates the eastern half of this aerial photograph of downtown Chicago, Illinois, taken in 2008. The densely populated cityscape in the photo is home to half-a-dozen of Chicago's 77 official community areas or neighborhoods, including the Loop and the Magnificent Mile.
The Chicago River placidly flows through the lower right of the image. The black skyscraper near the river is Willis Tower, formerly known as Sears Tower. When it was opened in 1974, Sears Tower was the tallest building in the world. Today, the Burj Khalifa, in Dubai, holds that honor. However, Willis Tower remains the tallest building in the United States, at 572 meters (1,729 feet).
The spit of sand and lush green park in the north of the image mark Chicago's South Lagoon. This area is home to parks and biking trails, as well as the Lincoln Park Zoo, one of the oldest zoos in the United States. (It was founded in 1868.)
The building with the tall white antennas is the John Hancock Center, another of Chicago's multi-use skyscrapers. The John Hancock Center is home to offices, restaurants, and residences.
The jetty jutting into Lake Michigan is Chicago's most popular tourist attraction, the Navy Pier. The Navy Pier, which includes amusement park rides, restaurants, theaters, and museums, is dominated by white-roofed buildings on the south side of the jetty. The rectangular ponds of the Jardine Water Filtration Plant, the largest water-filtration plant in the world, are visible just north of the Navy Pier.
The glistening, silvery skyscraper at the center of the image is the Aon Center, a busy office building.
Just south of the Aon Center is Millennium Park, a public facility that includes gardens, a music pavilion, and walking trails.
The square white roof of the Art Institute of Chicago is visible just south of Millennium Park. The Art Institute of Chicago has one of the finest collections of art in the United States, from Impressionists such as Claude Monet to Modernists such as Edward Hopper.
The bright red building is the CNA Center. While not nearly as tall as the John Hancock Center or Willis Tower, the CNA Center's bright color makes it instantly recognizable in the Chicago cityscape.
The enormous series of green areas along the lakefront are all part of Grant Park, nicknamed "Chicago's Front Yard."
Just south of Grant Park is the stately white Field Museum of Natural History. This museum is home to exhibits as diverse as ancient Egypt, Native Americans, and Sue, the world's largest and best-preserved fossil of a T. rex.
East of the Field Museum, on the shore of Lake Michigan, is the John G. Shedd Aquarium, home to more than 25,000 saltwater and freshwater fish.
Finally, our journey ends at Soldier Field, in the southeast corner of this image. Soldier Field is home to the Chicago Bears, the city's professional football team. It has also been the site of music concerts and political rallies, including one led by Martin Luther King, Jr., in 1966.

I have been impatiently waiting for the world to get on board with my disdain for the Kasabian-swagger-impersonating, man-child, cringe-fest that is Zane Lowe, and thanks to Halo-hollering diva Beyonce, my prayers have been answered.
In BBC2's coverage of Glastonbury on Sunday, Lauren Laverne's gushing praise of the star's headline performance inspired a sniggering dismissal from Lowe who stressed that he went to watch Queens of the Stoneage instead. Beyonce fans (and Lowe haters) on Twitter were quick to attack 'tosser' Lowe's petulant response and, whilst Laverne was quick to play down the internet overreaction as 'mental', it is still nice see Lowe so publically and vociferously derided. Whilst most Tweets highlighted this incident as representative of his unabashed 'musical snobbery', it also reveals a gendered politics of taste that has been historically rife in rock music, but is certainly exacerbated by the likes of Lowe.
For example, Zane Lowe's Masterpieces from 2007-2010 (or his recent hottest records blog for that matter) might as well be rebranded as Zane's Sycophantic Sausage-Fest, as no female artists – except the White Stripes drummer Meg White's contribution to Elephant – feature in the 20 albums selected for his annual selection of 5 classic albums, which are then played in the entirety and fawned over by the cliché wielding, name-dropping DJ on his Radio One show.
Lowe's uncritical posturing and musical chauvinism help to perpetuate a culture that devalues women's creativity and innovation, and helps explain why only a handful of women have ever been offered the opportunity to headline Glastonbury. Whether Beyonce is the feminist icon that some claim is certainly debatable, but the furore over her right to perform at the festival reveals the gendered hierarchies still dominant within musical taste-making. As a reprise to her anthem 'If I Were A Boy', Beyonce might want to add the line '…Zane Lowe might stick around to watch my set.'

Juvenile macular degeneration (JMD) is a broad term used to describe several eye disorders that primarily affect infants, children, and young adults. These conditions are associated with genetic mutations that affect the macula and cause malfunction and eventual death of cone cells, which are responsible for central vision.
Types of JMD
Stargardt's disease is the most common type of JMD and affects one in 10,000 people. Symptoms usually develop between the ages of 7 and 12, although some people do not experience visual impairment until their 30s or 40s. Manifestation of Stargardt's includes yellow spots composed of the pigment lipofuscein, scarring of the macula, and central vision loss.
Most patients with Stargardt's experience central vision loss by the time they reach adulthood. The progression of visual loss varies, but one study found that by age 50, one-half of participants had reached legal blindness. In late stages of the disease, color vision may also be impaired.
Stargardt's disease is an inherited autosomal recessive syndrome, which means that both parents carry the defective gene but have normal retinas. There is a 25 percent chance that their child will be born with Stargardt's disease. Children who are unaffected are unlikely to pass along the trait, unless they have a child with someone who has Stargardt's or carries the gene.
A variation of this disorder is fundus flavimaculatus. Symptoms are similar, but the eye shows yellow-white spots and flecks of various shapes and minimal changes in the macula. Fundus flavimaculatus has a more favorable prognosis and symptoms often do not develop until young adulthood.
Best's vitelliform retinal dystrophy is the second most common type of JMD. The age of onset and severity of symptoms vary greatly, even among family members and it is usually diagnosed during childhood or adolescence.
In its early stages, a large, yellow, cyst-like drusen resembling an egg yolk forms under the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. Despite the cyst, vision often remains normal, or nearly normal, for many years. Eventually the cyst ruptures and the fluid and yellow deposits spread beneath the macula.
Once the cyst ruptures, degeneration of the macula and RPE cells begins, causing vision loss. Central vision may deteriorate to about 20/100 later in life. Peripheral vision usually remains unaffected, and Best's does not always affect both eyes equally. Many patients retain good central vision in at least one eye and sometimes, Best's disease does not cause significant central vision loss.
It has an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance, which means that an affected person has one Best gene, paired with one normal gene. Affected individuals have a 50 percent chance of passing the disease-causing gene to a child, even if their partner is unaffected.
JMD Treatment and Prevention
There is no treatment for JMD disorders. The disorders that cause neovascularization and leakage may respond to laser treatment, but there are no standard therapies.
Genetic testing and counseling may assist with family planning.

kome kome kome
your new favourite collective
When you think of a music collective it's groups like Odd Future, BrockHampton and A$AP Mob that automatically come to mind. You better add Kome to that list and get familiar with the upcoming multidisciplinary collective hailing from Auckland and Christchurch.
Kome boys have taken their individual talents and created a wave across online platforms with their ever so talented producers, rappers, vocalists, tattooists, photographers and skaters.
A much needed roll call of the current members include Fracx, Coba, J$E, Humble Boy, Azryd, Kenyon, Ryan, Jay, Daniel, Patrick and Spyde. We at Nah Zone kicked it with them for a day to find out what they're all about.
Azryd recalls in between laughs shared with the rest of the boys how the name of the group came about.
"It's our uncle's name. He's just that cool uncle you know, always first to eat and a crack up guy. We really didn't think about it, we used Kome and it just stuck".
Azryd, Spyde, Humbleboy collaborated on a song in 2015 titled Chloe, paying homage to Chloe Moretz. They chucked the psychedelic, anime-orientated visuals for the song up online not knowing at the time it would be the first of many to come.
From Shane Cameron to Frank Ocean, the boys have various people who inspire them. Rapper, Humbleboy, touches on how life inspires him the most. "Fuck doing the same shit everyday, that's boring," while Fracx expresses gratitude to family and friends for keeping him lifted.
What charmed us the most about them (besides their good looks and steezy style) is how chill and natural they are about what they do/create. We were countlessly reminded that at the end of the day they're just a bunch of friends having fun who happen to share the common love for music.
Like most boys, the group met through the majestic world of online gaming (Call of Duty: Black ops to be exact) and are as self sufficient as they come these days.
Sending tracks to each other online, catching flights from Christchurch to Auckland for a weekend, using Azryd's garage to record, smoking up and playing Tekken whilst Patrick gives out tattoos is all a part of a normal stage in their creative process.
Earlier this year, whilst working on their own solo projects they managed to release their multi-genre Kome EP. Quickly followed by the drop of visuals to their hit, 'Whip'. With their debut in Wellington on Oct 23, they've also been preparing lead rappers, J$E and Humbleboy. - all the while juggling school, work, family and everything else that life throws at them.
Kome are one of NZ's best upcoming collectives and if you're still sleeping, wake up from the slumber because it's only up from here for them. J$E sums it up best, "We're gonna be popping off in a few years, I swear on my life - our whole team are way too fire and we only keep getting better".

Jorge Bonifacio is already boosting the Royals' offense
The Kansas City Royals were in a bit of an offensive rut heading into a Sunday matchup with the Texas Rangers.
OK, it was more than a rut. The Royals hadn't scored more than three runs in 10 of their past 11 games. Their slash line of .209/.274/.324 is among the worst in baseball — if not the worst — so it was clear Kansas City needed to spark its lineup somehow.
[Sign up for Yahoo Fantasy Baseball: Get in the game and join a league today]
The Royals turned to their farm system, calling up outfield prospect Jorge Bonifacio on Friday, who at 23 years old was already somewhat of a stalwart in the minor leagues.
Here's how Baseball Prospectus described his ascent through the KC farm system:
The Carolina and Texas leagues brought him to national attention and he snuck onto the back of the 2014 BP 101. Bonifacio's bat stagnated in Double-A however, and he would spend all of 2014 and 2015 at that level. He did slowly start to get more of his plus raw power into games—a hamate injury cost him some of 2013—and at the end of 2016 got some post-hype chatter after he set a career high in home runs with 19 for the Storm Chasers. Although he's been around forever in prospect terms, he is still only 23, and the power is major-league-ready.
That major league power is exactly what the Royals were expecting when they put Bonifacio in the three spot in the lineup on Sunday and, boy, did he prove he has it.
After going 0-for-3 in his ML debut Friday, Bonifacio picked up a single in the first inning Sunday, then launched a rocket of a home run to left center in the third. Both came off Yu Darvish — who finally struck him out the third time he saw the rookie.
The Texas Ranger still defeated Kansas City, 5-2, so it's not like Bonifacio — who finished the day two-for-four — solved all its problems. The bottom half of the Royals' lineup went 0-for-15. No matter how loaded you are at the top of the order, that's never going to cut it.
Still, some help is on the way, though it will force a few decisions from KC's front office.
Jorge Soler is expected back from injury soon, making spots in the outfield more scarce.
But offense will trump all right now as the Royals won't go anywhere without it. No one is going to go too overboard after one good game, but Bonifacio is certainly giving Kansas City a reason to keep him in the majors.

RCR Guard, RCA Band to perform Public Duties for The Queen
By Patricia Leboeuf
Posted on Thursday October 11, 2018
Over 120 members of the Royal Canadian Regiment (RCR) and the Royal Canadian Artillery Band were chosen to travel to the United Kingdom (UK) to perform public duties for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Being chosen to be the Queen's guard is a rare privilege for Canadians.
"It's so rare that we get to do this honour," said Captain of the Guard Major (Maj) Ben Lacey. "The last time that the Regiment provided a Queen's Guard was in 2000 and getting to do it again 18 years later is certainly a once in a career, if not once in a lifetime, opportunity for most of us."
Eighty-two soldiers were selected from the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Battalions of The Royal Canadian Regiment (RCR) as well as 38 soldiers from the Royal Canadian Artillery (RCA) Band located in Alberta.
The last dress rehearsal was held on Oct. 4 at the Simmonds Parade Square, Garrison Petawawa.
Several command teams from different units came to see the military spectacle one last time. The contingent left on Oct. 8 and will return in mid-November, spending a total of six weeks performing Public Duties.
"Everything originally had a purpose," said 3rd Battalion, The Royal Canadian Regiment (3 RCR) Lieutenant Colonel (LCol) Kristopher Reeves. "When the regiment was first formed in 1883, it fought wars every year since then. There was a time when this was the uniform they were wearing.
"I think that it is important to remember this sort of thing," he added. "The traditions that we inherited aren't just ceremonial traditions, but operational battle-tested traditions."
For the past few weeks, the soldiers have been routinely practicing drill together at the Garrison to perfect their technique for their time abroad. Drill instructors from the UK were on hand to provide tips and ensure their skills were up to par. A Master Tailor also reviewed the uniforms to ensure they are refined enough for The Queen.
Going overseas to perform ceremonial duties for The Queen demonstrates the close ties Canada has with the United Kingdom.
The fact that "we are going to guard the Sovereign in another country, that is a major signal that we are not just partners, but we are friends and family," said LCol Reeves.
While in London, the soldiers should also have time to take part in cultural activities.
The RCR Public Duties 2018 contingent will contribute to The Queen's Guard comprised of units charged with guarding the Sovereign and the official royal residences within the London District from Oct. 21 to Nov. 12, 2018. These are Buckingham Palace, St. James Palace, Windsor Castle and the Tower of London.
"We know that you are going to do (2 Canadian Mechanized Group) proud," said LCol Reeves on behalf of the Brigade Commander Colonel Jason Adair. "You are going to do the Regiment proud, but more importantly you are going to make all Canadians proud."

What matters to us is what we want to promote and increase.
What we value is what we give our attention to.
What we perceive, show interest for and relate to is what we strengthen.
Where we focus our thoughts (worries and judgments), words and activities demonstrates what we value.
I invite us all to notice where we put our focus.
Recently I did my own time clock noticing how I spent my time, a precious commodity.
Often I keep a running ledger of how we spend our money, even the pennies.
In my relationships I listen to my words as I counsel, teach and even in casual conversation.
In meditation, I track the thoughts that run through my surface mind.
It is what we value that we are building in our world.
What I see is up to me.
What I build I am responsible for.
What I affirm, I experience.
What I feel, I make real.
Who I Am becomes the role I play.
I make it all up everyday.
So I am choosing. And so are You!
Up at 3AM five mornings/week to drive an hour to be with our granddaughter and take her to school.
Her Dad leaves for work at 4:45AM. Grampa and I take turns in spending the mornings with her.
Gia comes to our home for quality time on Fridays, rather than to summer camp.
I spend time on Daily Loving Reminders, usually about 30 minutes writing and sending them, about 1+ hours answering emails and another 4 hours on business, phone and correspondence, about 3-6 hours daily with clients and groups, 3 hours on self improvement and inspiration, 2 hours/day on household management and family time and 6-8 hours of sleep. My life is rich with relationships, learning, responding to the call and being fully conscious. On the weekends, I seek more recreation and creativity. Playing at work and playing in life gives me a sense of freedom, creativity and joy.
I am rarely stuck in seriousness and so rarely get fatigued.
Fatigue is caused by judgment and efforting rather than flowing with enjoyment.
My intention is to model how to live by spiritual guidance and faith, where life is fun, safe and easy.
When it is not, I have made a detour or allowed myself to be distracted by my world.
Focus on what matters to you.
Being true to B'Lue,
Betty Lue
