As most of you probably know, I have just graduated and four years have literally flown by! However, I wish I had known a couple of things before going to uni – it would have made things so much easier! So today, I am going to try and make YOUR uni experience a little bit easier by giving you a few pointers:
- Befriend your house-mates – If you're living in halls you probably don't know who you will be living with this year so try not to keep to yourself. Get to know each other, try having meals together or going out together. Of course there may be times where you feel like you just don't click or they aren't your kind of people but it's so important to have a good relationship with the people you live. When you come home, you want to relax after a long day of work at uni, not sort out issues with house-mates. Inevitably, there will be bickering and arguing but wouldn't it be great to minimise that? If you do end up having issues, try and sort it out as quick as you can because the awkwardness and animosity is literally unbearable at times!
- Reading lists – You really don't need all the things they tell you to buy on that reading list. I wish I hadn't spend about £200 on law books in my first year! They are literally untouched. You're really only going to cover a few chapters from each book and most universities have module guides for the course. Now, I'm not saying you should solely rely on these module guides but try getting the books from the library? Or maybe try getting the e-book instead?
- Societies – Join them. Join most of the ones you like because this is a great way to make friends with people with similar interests. It also looks great on your CV. I know most of you probably aren't thinking about CV's right now but mind you, I ended up getting a Diploma from my university in addition to my Degree, just because of the extra credits I earned from my extra-curricular activities. So do not under-estimate them!
- Pasta – This is going to be your go-to meal when living out. Don't worry if you don't know how to cook because being at uni will definitely teach you that. I've made some really weird combinations and you will too. It actually ends up being really funny when you get to experimenting.
- It's your stuff – If you don't want other people using your things then find a safe place for them. If you're going to leave it lying around then you're basically giving others permission to use it. But if you want to be really careful then either invest in a cupboard lock or keep your things in your room.
- Cleaning – Most people hate cleaning and are the least bit bothered by dirty surroundings (especially guys!). But if you're a little OCD like me it's really worth doing a rota. Now, I know there may be times when people don't follow it but you'll just have to remind them (politely, because you don't want to be naggy). I was lucky enough to have housemates who cleaned most of the time last year but the year before that it was a nightmare! I always ended up cleaning most of the time but you might not be okay with that. So try and set certain cleaning days for certain people or something along those lines. Same goes for taking the trash out.
- Budget Budget Budget – Some of you might have never had a salary and so probably don't know how to handle money. Or even if you have had a job, you might not have been paying for things like rent and groceries so you may not know how to budget for them each month. I remember the days when I would get so excited when my student finance came in but would eventually come back to reality and realise that most of that money was for rent and bills. It can be so tempting to spend your student finance installments but try and control yourself people! Maybe open another account where you debit monthly installments so you have some kind of savings?
- Facebook – I know a lot of people don't like social media and specifically facebook but honestly, it is SO easy to keep in touch with people and up to date with uni events if you are on facebook – even for group projects. So try changing your ways by making a profile because it will definitely come in handy!
- Find your friends – A lot of people have a hard time making friends. Some are lucky enough to have amazing house-mates in their first year who go on to become their best friends. But some of you may not be. So don't be afraid to go and say hi to people or stay in touch with acquaintances as they can eventually become your closest friends. It's all about making the effort because honestly, university is the one place where it's the easiest to make friends so don't let this opportunity go. It's better to have a few friends rather than know everyone because after university it's usually those few friends who you end up staying in touch with. Don't hold back.
- Lastly, HAVE FUN. My four years at university were the best years of my life. and have definitely made me a better person. This is your time, so please don't waste it! Go to as many parties and events as you can, and part-take in as many things as possible because you won't have this kind of opportunity again. You'll learn so much, experience different things and most importantly, meet great people!

A Quick Rundown of Systems
Effective Air Purifier for Your Home Premium quality air purifiers are particularly necessary in preserving the health of the home. Many individuals are not aware that the installed tight seals that make household comfortable and power efficient are the ones that actually make indoor air more polluted. The air found inside the home is much dirtier than the air outside and sad to say that most of the people in many countries are spending more than half of their day indoors which makes them exposed to polluted air. Realizing this will absolutely compel home owners to get air purifier for their home. Many businessmen understood the expanding need and in response, most companies are already providing air purifiers of numerous features. Without the knowledge on what to find in an air purifier can make it very demanding to find one for your home. There are lots of things that you need to take into consideration for you can't just simply obtain any air purifier that you see. A good quality purifier is a machine that has passed the quality inspection. There are some air purifiers that can contaminate the air with dangerous levels of ozone and are giving out powerful lung irritant that can be unhealthy to individuals that are suffering from asthma.
3 Accessories Tips from Someone With Experience
It is very important to do a thorough research and learn about how air purifiers work and find where to buy a safe and effective unit that is right for your household needs. Aside from researching online for information, you can also ask for purifier buying guide from different manufacturing companies or ask from somebody that you know that are knowledgeable with air purifiers so you can have sound advice on what you should do.
3 Accessories Tips from Someone With Experience
Air purifiers have various uses and they are built to target certain kinds of air pollutants. Home owners ought to determine first the sorts of pollutants that should be discarded from the home before selecting to get any type of air purifier. High Efficiency Particulate Air filter is seen to be the best method of eliminating airborne allergens. HEPA filters allow only very small particles to pass through them. If you are choosing an air filter that is HEPA certified, then you know it works well. Also, size matters in choosing a filter which means that the more square feet of HEPA filter, the more particulates it will be able to remove. Other than the size of the filter, the material and construction of the actual filter media are playing a significant role in the air purifier's performance and may account for why one HEPA filter is much more expensive than other kinds of filter.

Wish I could go to Asokan's exhibit. From the brochure I am intrigued.
"The eye of the camera is an unparalleled eye. It sees with a focused and unpremeditated clarity. The eye behind the camera, therefore, is a knowing eye of exceptional power. It is almost a third eye."
Zacharia's words are true of your photographs too, rauf. I think you see into the human soul and reveal it to us.

Very strong, expressive pics, reckless Rauf
Can can indeed tell a story with each one of them
As beautiful as they are, they saddened me, as they painfully reflect our conditioning to feel helpless, and dependent on that which is intangible, invisible... on what is always out of reach.
Something, somebody else...
Would love to enjoy Asokan's Exhibit - all my best (I can feel it)
Take good care
Lots of love and hugs

POOHEEDEE SWEET, yes we all fill it up with something. Tangible or intangible, we need some comfort. there are many ways, faith is one, makes us rich, boosts the energy, level of performance. Michel Angelo is a good example. Good and positive.
i am sorry i took time to respond, have to come up with a new post, too many things to do and too many people counting on me including my family. i think i am disappointing every one. hope you are doing fine Pooheeda

Hi VISHESH, sorry my priorities are going upside down.
yes mylapore it is. Had friends near chitrakulam, now moved far. It used to be the happening place every day, now reduced to few days in a year. T Nagar shopping has taken the crowd away.

oh RUTH, Asokan's exhibition went off well, couldn't stay with him for long, can't afford big cities.
i observe people and come up with theories. Greed rules most of the time, then comes security. i make attempts to capture their thoughts in the camera, i fail most of the time Ruth. You can see pure and undivided devotion on the face of the lady in the 5th picture and i wonder what is going on in her mind.
i have removed one picture which i posted twice in a hurry and replaced it with another one.

You can be miserable or you can have fun, depends on the attitude Sagorika, since i am a sadak chaap i am pretty comfortable in most uncomfortable situations. So the artists and their amazing work has inspired me to visit NE again.

Hi NATTU NAUTANKI, if it really works i'll be the first to join them with a list of things i want from god. i have no money to pay, if had money i won't be asking god in the first place.

Hi PRETTY PRETTY, colours are all over India, more saturated colours in Rajasthan. But i have always missed Holi. Perhaps next year i'll go somewhere north to get Holi pictures.
Feelings yes, hoping wishing, greed, wanting more and more and perhaps thanking god. 'what ever' includes evil like some one praying for her mother in law to die or some disaster for the neighbour. If all the prayers are answered, the world would burn in ten days. One praying for constant sunshine the other praying for rain, god would be confused.

Dearest ALICIA, The final brochure print was only 90% of what i expected. i couldn't find right font for 'light' so i wrote it myself. The exhibition went off well, i couldn't stay there long as i was carrying very little money and staying in Ernakulam is beyond my pocket(with holes in it) and i have never been careful with money Alicia.
Had to go to other places and meet friends. Made some friends in the train. and they located me on the face book.
Expectations from God always end in disappointments. But people never give up. Very high expectations result in depression and impact of grief hits many folds. some thank god for what they have and pray to keep it that way. There is no escape, bad days hit everybody. its all a matter of luck Alicia, they all want a little bit of luck, perhaps that's what they are asking for. What they are seeking in these pictures is called 'Prasadam' what is offered to god, holy ash, and 'kunkumam' the red coloured powder. It may work wonders as hman mind plays lots of tricks. It may boost the person's confidence and he may work harder and the results may be quite rewarding. finally it all comes down to money.
God give me more money.
its never enough.
hope you are enjoying the summer Alicia
lots of love

You made new priends ? Ram Sita types ?

Did you bring any stars planets as they promise ?
Did you meet Sarookaan Aamir Kaan ?
How did plaappy greet you when you entered home? how is Grandpa ?
Aiyoo ! you must see Mala nows, she cutted her hair so short that she looks like a school boy with bagpack and a tippin box, Meghu Chinna fine, met dem day before at Amethyst. 2 days before dat they camed home with Padmaja, she left for NY the next day

Hi SURESH, Sure we'll meet, we'll go after butterflies next month, big ones. waiting for some rains, This time let's take a bus to KO, i'll come to CBE, Suresh Y is here staying with me, let him finish his work, perhaps both of us will land up at your place.
i am just sitting here doing nothing, i have no problems with the heat, good breeze blowing across the room, rest of the family can't live without AC.
Arshia is in town on a short visit
Thought of takin her to Ko, she's got a cannon 450D with two lenses, aching to take pictures. Silly thing has dyed her hair red. i was furious.

Hi PINKY, i welcome you here at Daylight again, but its not a pleasant place to visit. you'll regret blogrolling me.
You have such a sweet blog Pinky, very pleasant and very feminine and delicate, lots of tings there, i don't remember how i landed up at your place, felt like staying there for some time, Next time i'll ask for some coffee.
Normally i am afraid of commenting on blogs i stumble upon Pinky, when they resikropate, they find my blog very rude arrogant and depressing, i am afraid of hurting and disappointing visitors. My old friends know me very well and they don't expect any joy out of my blog like i found in yours.
Thank you Pinky.

oh Kannur ! Are you in Kannur now SHRAVAN ?
I go there quite often For Theyyams or on my way to Manandavady. there are two Theyyam posts, if i remember correctly, i don't know where they are, perhaps two years ago, in Daylight Again, one in Taliserry and the other in Kudali on Kannur-virajpet road, my friend Sindu's family conducts it, Tharavad house ??
Most of the time i go to Coorg, my place and Kutta Nagarhole' forest and take a bus to Manandavady. i spend a lot of time in the forests.
Tolpetty is due, haven't been to that part of the forest> Have you been to Tirnelli Temple Shravan ?
It will take a lifetime to explore Wynad area alone. please click on 'my favourite post' on the links, its about Meenmutty, Wynad. Very long post you may not find it interesting.
i panic when i see a new visitor Shravan. This blog is not a pleasant place. Any way, welcome to Daylight Again.

@ rauf
yes sir ! at kannur, actually a 5 kms away frm town, just a matter of 15 mins drive :)pretty much of knowledge in malayalam:) tharavaad house, its the custom here :) my moms tharavaad also has the custom of organizing theyyam yearly.. not the grant one as other places.. but am glad to say that the theyyam season at kannur ends after the theyyam at "kalari vaatukkal devi temple" which is at 10 mins distance away from my home. and another feature is that the theyyam at this temple has the tallest thing ever to be used in any theyyams.. :)
i have been to tirnelli/thirunelli temple years before following my gran pa's death and the offerings there. i agree, wynad is a beautiful place, i love the climate over then, and the only thing i fear is the leeches :D they are ruthless :)
i will read the favourite post once am back to blogger after my exams (after may 15th)
and i love this layout and the photos you click:)
bye for now :)

They just want hope and faith... sometimes hope is the hardest thing to come by.
Remember the story Pandora's Box? Hope was the last misery. Whoever wrote that hope is the last misery was a total lunatic. Without hope none of us would be alive.

MYSTIC ROSE, hope and faith are connected to many things like an iPOD, Ferrari, Porche, Camera. list is endless.
Things don't end with wishing well for ourselves and others if you are saint. Unfortunately we are humans, so we wish something bad for people we don't like, like a daughter in law or a mother in law.

Let the Ferrari come, i'll apply for the driver's liscence and then i'll burn my hands further praying for better roads to drive my Ferrari.

Get the Scoop on Top 10 Games Before You're Too Late
Board games can be very therapeutic. They can also be educational too. When there is something all geeks love, then it's a good board game.
All the rules you have to know and the way the game works. Possibly the hardest thing about this game is merely shuffling the cards that is not that hard. It is a wonderful game to teach children, if you learn how to play yourself. It is a superb game, although it does have its slow pieces. If it's a close game, this may be a game turner for you. Among the most prosperous games on the net, Minecraft is sort of unique.
Watch the game and see whether someone is preparing to attack another player. Right at the beginning, each player has the capability to close two stations. Players must roll the specific number to get to the last square. They will have the ability to customize combat vehicles as they progress in the game. They will be able to upgrade parts that increase the performance of the vehicle. As a rule of thumb, you should respect different players as you want to get respected. In case the other players identify where you're attempting to go, they may attempt to block you by taking your routes.
The Fundamentals of Top 10 Games That You Will be Able to Learn From Starting Immediately
Late game, however, it isnat excellent. This game takes everything you adore about horror movies and puts them in a game where each choice you make has repercussions across the remainder of the game. It will definitely give you the feels if you play from start to finish. It's the very first game which lets you customise your character and you must conserve the world (just like the rest of the games). It's really an exciting game, provided that you've got a few hours to truly sit and revel in it. Since you might or might not have discovered, within the last year or so there have been a lot of awesome fullscreen multiplayer browser games released online.
Teaching your kid to play Chess is a skill which they can carry through life. Nonetheless, you would like to be busy and keep your children content and entertained. You and your children can splash around at public swimming and relish the hot tub too! It appears to have a whole lot more fun packed in it and it is a small bit better than Soulsilver.
Now it's time to begin roleplaying! It's tough to forget that all moment, as video games are involved, isn't a lengthy time whatsoever. It is where to create ships, settlers and crew which enable you to transport individuals to start new cities.
Top 10 Games – the Conspiracy
On the rear of the rule book, there's an internet code so it is possible to play with others online. Within this site you will see that the games in the io games list have a typical style and theme very similar to those mentioned previously. The io Games List is the largest list of internet multiplayer web and cellular games. The past few posts are also rather important! Thus, support the io games and make sure to bookmark this site (CTRL-D) We try to keep it updated with the latest io games weekly, so be sure to check back from time to time. It's plenty of content outside of only the vanilla game itself. Although the grade of the titles has been up and down over time, Mortal Kombat X is undoubtedly the best yet.

Religion and Politics
June 23, 2013
Religion and politics should not be mixed. In John 18:36, Jesus said "My kingdom is no part of this world." Jesus Christ himself remained neutral in regards to political aspects. This can be seen in John 6:15, "Therefore Jesus, knowing they were about to come and seize him to make him king, withdrew again into the mountain all alone." Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world" (James 1:27).Now let's be honest: our world has religion all wrong. It's not just all about "doing rituals and then being okay with the big guy." Religion is about blessing other people in need and yes, having that sense of community. As followers of Jesus Christ, it's important that we stay accountable to one another in hopes of not getting corrupted by the evil desires of the world (pre-marital sex, drunkenness, hatred, violence, etc.). And yes we all have those desires. I have them, you have them, and even the Pope has them! But in Jesus Christ He gives us a new heart with new desires, and no it's not easy. Quite honestly it's a war, but that's why that sense of community is important. In the realm of politics it is important to have religion so that we know that the morals of our leaders are straight but at the same time it can be a curse leaving us with a bitter taste and a lack of freedom so to speak. Some people can just take it too far. "Because of religion people decide what is wrong from right. Without religion people wouldn't fear disobeying God and they would act as they please. Although our nation is a "secular" nation many people still believe in a religion in order to get on the good side of God. Religion is what stops our criminal numbers from skyrocketing." –Unknown Source (Submitted to a debate site anonymously) "With our current human rights laws, there is no longer a need for...

Conducting an experiment is the same in any discipline of science; that is why the scientific method is so critical. It gives scientists a path to the most accurate data.
However, computational experiments allow scientists (and students!) to explore the effect of variables in a time and cost sensitive way. This increases access to inquiry based learning for students without the time or resources to pursue a longer or more elaborate traditional experimental model.
Computer Science in Science PD: Using Computer Models in Science - Discussion
Conducting an experiment is the same in any discipline of science; that is why the scientific method is so critical. It gives scientists a path to the most accurate data.
Good point! I was always so frustrated on lab day when the materials didn't stick to script! CS models help to illustrate the concept without having the interruption of hidden curriculum, or user error, on arcane materials.
computational models allow for repeated trials, middle school students can figure out, by trial and error, if they have a solid control set up. The computational modeling process is the very similar to experimental design process - they can work in harmony to build content knowledge and skills.
Similarities include the need for controls and multiple trials. Differences include the ease with which trials can be repeated.
In class, students are given an experiment, create a hypothesis, and then test it. But with computational models, they are able to create their own parameters, run the experiment, and then create a hypothesis from the information they receive.
Conducting experiments in class requires the availability of a wide variety of material, a careful set-up and execution. Mistakes can cause real damage. Repeating the experiment would require repeated set-up and additional material. It would also take time and expense. Computational models can be built and reconfigured quickly, at no cost and can be adjusted to manipulate variables easily.
I always to talk with my classes about the importance of completing an experiement several times to check for accuracy etc… but this is often not possible in a classroom setting. Using CS will allow us to ensure we are being accurate and easily make changes where needed.
Using computer models allows time for multiple trials which might not be doable for the hands on labs due to time constraints and the cost of the consumables involved. With the computer models there is also more flexibilty in testing different variables. In many instances the computer model would be easier to design a truly controlled experiment.
Experiments in class are difficult because of buying the supplies and the time factor… class periods are 55 minutes. With computer models, the time factor is not a problem. I also like the fact that you can have different outputs of a set of inputs and students can see randomness in those outputs. More like the real world.
The physical aspect of students participation in unplugged activities can be enhanced by the computational experiments and vice versa if we are thoughtful in our choice of activities and models.
Dissections are one of the most memorable labs we do in 7th grade at my school. Performing this lab physically for students has many advantages, but also many disadvantages. If students were to perform this lab using a computational model there would be less room for error. For example, some students cut too deep, or make cuts on the wrong part of the animal. Also, students who have certain views on animal cruelty would appreciate a computational model.
Great point! There never seems to be enough time to set up, perform, and clean up for labs!
I am not a science teacher. I am a technology teacher, but I do have some experimental aspects to my class. Usually students try out a sensor to see how it works and learn how to program it by using the sensor and observing how it works and then making a conclusion. In the experimental part of the lesson, there usually is only one or two answers without any randomness.
using computer models in science makes it easier and faster for students to see the results. Mistakes could be fixed easily and different variables could be tested quickly. This is not necessarily achievable when conducting science experiments in class. Human error and environmental effects can not be eliminated while doing hands on experiments in class.
They both have independent and dependent variables and constants. One thing is done (either virutally or in real world) and the impact on the dependent variable is observed and measured. The computer model can be easily replicated and can conduct experiments which may take a long time (plate movement) or may be too dangerous to conduct (the effect of cyanide on living human tissue). In some ways, the computer model takes the frustration and joy out of conducting real world lab experiments.
Two things I emphasize, finding that neither is intuitive to students, are the importance of controlled experiments and the need for repeated trials. It sounds like those are also features of the computer simulations.
I think what you said about taking the frustration and joy out of experiments is a really good point. I know students enjoy using computers but they seem to enjoy even more hands on experiments. So finding a good balance will be important.
I love the idea that my students may model something even though they don't have access to the materials.
Class labs and computer models are similar in that they both allow you to answer a questions through inquiry by collecting and analyzing data. They differ in that computer models allow the testing of multiple scenarios.
When I teach my students how to conduct an experiment I always focus on the independent, dependent, and controlled variables at the beginning, because my students struggle to understand how important it is to keep all trials the same. I think using computational models probably helps with keeping data consistent throughout the experimentation process.

These are the two other cards I made with this super fun set! I just love how I was able to use some many different color combos. I just love Old Olive and Chocolate Chip together, I had to use it so that I could use my brown gingham ribbon. I splurged the other day at HobbyLobby and picked up lots of ribbon at 50% off! I hope you enjoy!

Oh, Hoppy Day!,
Oh, my goodness! I've borrowed this set from a good friend and I'm having a BLAST playing with it! I made 4 cards last night. It's such a great set I've been able to use it with lots of different color schemes! Thanks Tonya!! Hope you all enjoy, don't be surprised if the cards for the next few days are from this set! Happy Wednesday,

"Why did the Chicken cross the road?" RAK
My sweet friend Tonya made this cute card for me, I just love the funny chicken! So why did the chicken cross the road you ask? There were stamps on the other side! That's SO ME!
Thanks Tonya
So my parents just received their card in the mail that I sent them. They LAUGHED & LAUGHED, I was hoping they would get a good one out of it. You can see the Card HERE.
They both agreed that the little Stamped truck looked just like their truck with the fire. They are so funny, my mom was saying something about framing it!

Wild About You, & you, & you!
So this is the card that I sat down and made last night. So many little babies are making their way into this big world. I can never have enough baby cards. I used Bashful Blue and Ballet Blue for this color combo. I honestly think this is the first time in all my years as a demo that I have actually used Ballet Blue on ANYTHING! I love it though, and I think I need to use it more.
The card below is my nieces card, she sat down and did her own stamping last night. Lucky her, she is old enough to use my supplies unattended. She loves Stamping and wants to be as she puts it "a Professional Stamping Demonstrator" someday.
Didn't she do a great job?

Catchin' Up!
These are pictures of my sweet little Bailey when she was just a few months old. (notice the Hair, No she did not loose ANY!)
So this is a pic of Daddy and Bailey, with her Easter Bucket and Crazy Morning Hair.
I finally got around to sorting some photos yesterday, I wasn't in the mood to stamp or to do anything for that matter but I did get the urge to sort photos. I came across these cute Easter photos of my kiddo's and figured I should do something with them. I love 6x6 Scrapping it doesn't require to much and I think it fits me good. I do however think I might try myself at some 12x12, since I don't have any albums for them it might get put off until another time. So needless to say Im pretty happy that A- I got some scrapbooking done, B- They turned out Adorable & C- I was able to share them with all my Blogger Friends. Happy Thursday!!

"There is a scientific theory to the sides thing. Men normally pick the right side (as you are laying on the bed looking at the ceiling) if they are right handed because it is easier for them to have their good arm accessible. My DH sleep in that traditional pattern ;) Congrats on 2K I just hit mine last week!"
Thanks to everyone who responded! I really enjoyed hearing about what side of the bed you sleep on. It's funny the more I think about it the more I'm miffed. My BF and I were discussing it and I sleep on the same side no matter what position the bed is in. With the exception of when we stay in hotels. (Which we sometimes do alot of in the summer) And like I said before It changes. I would like to know more about what drives me to what side of the bed.
Anyways, please keep checking in, I hope to have lots of fun things to post to inspire you all.
Thanks BUNCHES for your friendship and support!!!
*okay Heather- now it's time for you to get in touch with me! Just drop me an e-mail at
firstname.lastname@example.com! I'll get your super yummy candy sent out ASAP!

2,000 Hits and Going!!!
Here it is, the long awaited and much anticipated Blog Candy! I hope you all like, it's mix of lots of fun things I've picked up here and there!
House Mouse Stickers, House Mouse Stamp, Clear Stamps and Block, 3 Rolls of Ribbon, a fun Card Kit, Jeweled Brads, Date Stamp, Some Yummy Altoids to enjoy then make a cute Tin with, some embossed CS and a Magnetic Storage Tin.
So as I lay here in bed, (yes, I'm in bed blogging lol! ) I was thinking what makes us choose the side of the bed we sleep on. At home I sleep on the side closest to the door, which is the right side if you are facing the bed. Tonight here in our hotel, I'm sleeping on the opposite side. I'm just not sure why, I'm trying to figure it out.. *hmmm* It just made me think! So leave me a comment and tell me what side of the bed you sleep on and why. Of course this is optional but I think it will be fun to see why people choose what side and if it's a conscious choice or not..
*Check out my girl Tara's new Blog- Stampalicious*
Good Luck, and lots of Stampin' Love!

Sweet for Baby
I just felt like going through my Inspiration Sheets last night to see if something there would spark an idea for me. I found this inspiration on the Nice & Narrow sheet, I just loved how they cropped the length of the image and blocked them out. I had to add more, I love using my SU Brads so I've been working on incorporating them into my design. I also love using my Sm. corner rounder punch to make scallops so I added some in pink to soften it up. Lastly, I used my Coluzzle to cut out an oval for the "baby" and used my scalloped scissors around the edges. I still haven't been able to get the Scallop punches that I would love, so I'm making due. Thanks for stopping in.

Happy Birds
These colored little guys just kinda came to me, and I rolled with it. I absolutely love the ribbon, I used my slot punch and nipped the top crease of the card to allow the ribbon to wrap around so that I could tie a pretty bow. I think I made one mistake however, and tried using my lavender stickles to make faux brads in the corners. I'm not sure if I like it, but overall it turned out good! Nice and cheery for summer.

Okay, I've been picking things up here and there and I see I'm almost at the 2,000 hits mark! So I wanted to offer some Blog candy when I hit that mark. It's been fun having my own place to share and inspire other stampers. I love hearing from everyone and so tell your friends about Hook'd Ink'd & Stamp'd. That way you will see the Blog candy sooner.

Boy, am I glad to be home. I've thought and thought all day trying to figure out what set to use and what to make. I've seen so many inspiring ideas lately as I peruse galleries and blogs. I did need to make a card for my niece who just turned 12. So this is what I came up with, I decided to use All about U and I absolutely LOVE this DP I picked up at Hobby Lobby. I'm glad I was able to make something worthy of posting, I'm in a bit of a funk. I hope you all enjoy and I look forward to making a few more cards this week to hopefully Inspire you all!! Lots of love,

Please somebody help!!! I am trying to do my coursework and the subject is setting. I have to produce a piece of creative writing in the style of forsters howards end, and for this i need to know what he is trying to say when it comes to place and setting? that places influence people? that they are more important then people? Please Help!!!
Posted by Laura (board editor) on 12:03:56 05/10/04
Of course Forster would never suggest places are more important than people. However, he strongly believed in what the Greek called the 'genus loci' (if I spell that correctly), a kind of spirit of place, so in that light a person can fit it, or not, in a certain place, places aren't arbitrary, they are genuinely to be felt as a home or not, and able to influence and even change people (Italy for instance in Where Angels Fear to Tread and in A Room with a View). In Howards End there is a huge significance in the tree's rustling in the wind in the garden of the house Howards End. Forster also seems to say in this novel that ones love for a place can be as real and emotionally nourishing as a love for a person. That kind of love is part of the connection between Mrs Wilcox and Margaret as well. Mrs Wilcox regarded Margaret as her spiritual heir.
Ciao, Laura

I agree with the post above. I would also like to add that in Ruth and Helen's case, the house represented an intidote to the city i.e. London, during which many structures were being "pulled down" to make way for mammouth buildings of flats, including the Schlegel's own house.

Treedeon Announce New Album Under the Manchineel Due Feb. 23
Right on the line between crunching noise rock and weighted sludge roll is where you'll find the new track from Berlin sludge outsiders Treedeon, who three years after issuing the willfully bizarre Lowest Level Reincarnation (review here) will return on Feb. 23 via Exile on Mainstream with Under the Manchineel, their latest album. You can hear the rumbling-but-still-melodic-and-by-the-way-absolutely-crushing "Breathing a Vein" at the bottom of this post if you're so inclined, and keep your ears open for the swell in intensity as it moves toward its blown-out, scream-topped finish. Shit is masterful and bombastic in kind.
Oh, and in case you're wondering, a manchineel is a tree. Its fruit is apparently sweet but poisonous as all hell — clearly Treedeon working on a metaphor there. If you didn't know, don't feel bad. I had to look it up.
The PR wire brings album art and details and whatnot:
TREEDEON: German Sludge Trio To Release Under The Manchineel LP Via Exile On Mainstream In February
German trio TREEDON will release their monstrous second LP, Under The Manchineel, this February through their allies at Exile On Mainstream.
Offers bassist/vocalist Yvonne Ducksworth, "We recorded Under The Manchineel at Studio Wong in Berlin; they have a great Live setup for us. The song "Breathing a Vein" surprised me; turned out to be one of our favorite songs on the record. As far as vocals: it really melds what Arne and I do best to accompany one another. The song lyrics are echoing that as well: Two opposites who manage to belong together."
Exile On Mainstream Records will release Under The Manchineel on CD, LP, and digital formats on February 23rd; find preorders RIGHT HERE.
Under The Manchineel Track Listing:
1. Cheetoh
2. Death Of Ceres
3. Breathing A Vein
4. No Hell
5. Manchineel
6. Protoplanet
7. Wasicu
TREEDEON returns with the follow-up to their debut, Lowest Level Reincarnation, which was released some three years ago. The bruising second album, Under The Manchineel marks the arrival of a new drummer Andy Schuenemann, of post-rock instrumental duo Alphatrip, joining bassist/vocalist Yvonne Ducksworth and vocalist/guitarist Arne Heesch, and taking the band in an even heavier direction.
The seven tracks on Under The Manchineel have foundations in sludge, noise, and doom, also incorporating unexpected melodies into their colossal wall of sound. This thunderous catharsis, reaches levels of emotional intensity previously untapped within the album's forty-five-minute lifespan. The lyrics are fueled by a multitude of political issues including general disenchantment with world events, and the current world order. The track "Manchineel" — one of the album's many highlights — is a clear example of this as raging vocals of lyrical angst target all the forces declaring war on our society and our planet.

islamabad - The Islamabad Capital Territory (ICT) administration has sought removal of, what it viewed, an illegal under-construction church in the suburbs of the federal capital.
Chief Commissioner Islamabad office has asked the chairman Capital Development Authority (CDA) to remove the illegal church at Harno Thanda Pani situated within the limits of Nilore police station, Islamabad, to 'avoid any untoward incident.'
A letter written by director administration ICT to CDA chairman said the church is being constructed illegally and needs removal. The step has been taken in the light of Islamabad police report on the church. The letter also contains the report prepared by IG Islamabad police regarding illegal construction of the church in which the same has been viewed as threat to law and order in future.
Meanwhile, Islamabad municipal administration has asked director enforcement CDA to remove illegal cattle market from Saidpur model village and demolish cancelled counter cabins located in different sectors of Islamabad. The municipal administration has already nominated a sub-inspector as focal person on behalf of DMA who will accompany/assist the enforcement staff for the subject operation/task which is likely to take place in the coming days.

For thousands of IT Finance Managers and Chief Information Officers (CIOs), fall is the time when final budgeting negotiations are taking place. No one looks forward to the annual ritual of arm wrestling to get the money needed to operate for the next 12 months. It is a time consuming process, sometimes rewarding, but mostly frustrating. There are limited dollars and so many good ideas that require funding.
Most of you have developed reliable processes to forecast the biggest expense lines in your budget. Downloads from your HR systems support your salary estimates. Contract management tools handle your leases and maintenance lines. Asset tracking systems detail your depreciation and possibly licenses. Making those investments in the right tools and maintaining the data accuracy within each tool gives you the ability to defend your projections. If you can forecast the cost of people, hardware, and software, you have most of your budget covered.
However, IT spending is changing. I'm betting you have an expense line with public cloud dollars that is becoming very difficult to predict. For most, this is an expense item that is highly variable and rapidly growing. Cloud expenditures usually end up in a contract services line somewhere because they are classified as operating expense. You do your best to estimate and defend the spending and hope any deviation will not be too large by end of year.
A recent Goldman Sachs study showed cloud spending, as a percentage of IT spending, was about 5% in 2014 and expected to reach 11% by 2018. Think about the implications of this figure. How are you going to manage a highly variable expense line which makes up over 10% of your annual spending? The charges seem to come from everywhere: shadow IT, self-service provisioning, and SaaS (News - Alert) applications. No other type of spending is so user driven and so outside your control.
No wonder 57% of respondents to a survey at Microsoft Ignite said improved forecasting was the most important use of cloud usage data.
Forecasting requires history. When you have invoices and usage data from several vendors saved in a series of spreadsheets, you can't really get a clear view of what is happening overall. You need a consolidated view of all of your spend across all of your providers. After all, there is no vendor lock-in in the cloud world – workloads can be shifted from one provider to another without penalties and without your knowledge.
It is imperative that you identify who is using your IT resources and why. Metadata in the cloud usage records is key to slicing and dicing the usage into meaningful business intelligence. An automated method of interpreting that metadata consistently is required. You must be able to have a conversation with the business owners (LOBs) that are using public cloud resources and learn what they are planning for the next year. Demand does not come from within IT, it comes from those who use the services.
If you haven't already acquired a solution to manage hybrid cloud costs and resources, you need to start looking now. If you have a tool that handles a single vendor, consider how long that tool will be adequate to support your enterprise as more providers are added to the mix.
Why juggle your data sources one-by-one when you have solution options which will aggregate all of your providers into one database and includes business analytics to make the most of your data? Reduce your forecasting pain and increase the credibility of your funding requests by using dashboards with visuals that tell the story better than any trend line.
So this fall, be better prepared for the annual budget negotiations with data-driven insights that support your real business needs.

Court Reporting Colleges
If you're fascinated by the legal system and would enjoy watching cases unfold in the courtroom daily, you may want to pursue the Court Reporting major. College, university and technical school students in this major learn the skills needed to become an official record-keeper for the court, recording everything that is said the second it is said. Program courses cover legal terminology, aural language skills, computer-aided transcription and shorthand.
Usually, Court Reporting majors enroll in 2- or 3-year associates degree programs at community colleges, technical schools, career colleges or universities. Certificate programs, which take a year or less to complete, are also popular at these types of schools. To build more advanced court reporting skills a small number of students seek a bachelors degree in Court Reporting.
You'll be expected to take down legalese-filled speeches, conversations and proceedings at lightening speed, so you should already be a quick and accurate typist. Good English and grammar skills can help you get the details right. And, most importantly, you'll need to be a good listener and able to pay attention even during dull trials.
If you're interesting working in the legal system, consider other programs including Advanced Legal Research/Studies (LL.M., M.C.L., M.L.I., M.S.L., J.S.D./S.J.D.); American/U.S. Law/Legal Studies/Jurisprudence (LL.M.,M.C.J., J.S.D./S.J.D.); Banking, Corporate, Finance, and Securities Law (LL.M., J.S.D), S.L.J); Canadian Law/Legal Studies/Jurisprudence (LL.M., M.C.J., J.S.D./S.J.D.).; Comparative Law (LL.M., M.C.L., J.S.D./S.J.D.); Energy, Environment, and Natural Resources Law (LL.M., M.S.,J.S.D./S.J.D.); Health Law (LL.M., M.J., J.S.D./S.J.D.); International Business, Trade, and Tax Law (LL.M., J.S.D./S.J.D.); International Law and Legal Studies (LL.M., J.S.D./S.J.D.); Law (LL.B., J.D.); Legal Assistant/Paralegal; Legal Administrative Assistant; Legal Professions and Studies; Legal Research and Advanced Professional Studies; Legal Studies; Legal Support Services; Pre-Law Studies; Programs for Foreign Lawyers (LL.M., M.C.L.); and Tax Law/Taxation (LL.M, J.S.D./S.J.D.).

Choosing a Court Reporting School
You have about 100 Court Reporting schools to choose from. Located throughout the country, you can find technical schools, career colleges, community colleges, 4-year colleges and universities. Beyond looking for the basic Court Reporting major, you may want to choose a school that allows you to specialize in a specific type of court reporting such as the growing specialties of Communication Access Real-time Translation (CART) or broadcast captioning. You should also make sure that prospective schools have up-to-date transcription equipment.
Court Reporting Degree Programs
To get started in Court Reporting quickly, some students choose a certificate program lasting a year or less. These degree programs are offered at community colleges, career colleges, technical schools and universities. You'll graduate as a novice voice writer and will be able to learn other electronic court reporting and transcription skills on the job.
However, to truly become proficient in real-time voice writing and get up to industry typing speed standards of 225 words per minute or more, many students enroll in 2- to 3-year associates degree programs at technical schools, colleges or universities. These types of programs will give you an edge when looking for jobs. You'll also likely have the option of gaining specific skills in areas such as CART, broadcast captioners or real-time voice writing.
A few students choose to enroll in bachelors degree programs for Court Reporting. These 4-year programs offered at colleges and universities give students a chance to gain even more expertise in different applications and techniques.
Court Reporting Degree Programs:
- Certificate Programs in Court Reporting
- 2-Year Associates Degrees in Court Reporting

Online Court Reporting Degree Programs at Online Schools
A few online schools offer Court Reporting online degree programs. You can earn an online degree at the associates degree, bachelors degree or certificate level through an online school. Technical schools, colleges and universities have Court Reporting programs designed so you can build up your typing speed and learn the necessary legal terminology on your own time.

- See All Online Court Reporting Degree Programs
Online Court Reporting Schools:
- Saint Leo University Online
- Colorado Technical University - Online School
- Bryan College - Online School
High School Preparation
During high school, prospective Court Reporting majors should start working on their typing speed and accuracy. Sign up for typing or other computer courses. English classes are important, too, because you'll need impeccable spelling and grammar skills. You should also look for opportunities to see the legal system in action by visiting courtrooms or by getting in touch with legal professionals for job shadowing opportunities.
Find Schools Offering Court Reporting Degree Programs
Popular Careers in the Field of Court Reporting
Court Reporting majors have a promising career outlook as an 18 percent growth in employment is expected over the next decade. On average, court reporters earn annual salaries between $35,000 and $67,000.
Court Reporters are especially in demand for real-time broadcast captioning and translating for the deaf. In fact, many Court Reporting majors with CART skills will find work outside of the courts providing real-time translation for the deaf on television program or at colleges and universities.
Another way to increase your chances of getting the top jobs, seek a national certification after college or university. In some states you'll need to be a Certified Court Reporter or a Certified Verbatim Reporter for example and you can also add certifications such as Certified Broadcast Captioner or Register Diplomate Reporter. You'll also find a greater number of jobs in large cities or rural areas.
During your career as a court reporter, you'll be in close contact with Judges, Magistrate Judges, and Magistrates, Legal Secretaries, Paralegals and Legal Assistants—all related careers that you may wish to explore.

QUEENSRYCHE ink new record deal with Century Media
New album slated for release June 11
Band comprised Of Todd La Torre, Michael Wilton, Parker Lundgren, Eddie Jackson and Scott Rockenfield heading out on "Return To History World Tour"
(March 4, 2013 - New York, NY) - Legendary Seattle rockers QUEENSRYCHE are poised to regain their place as hard rock/heavy metal royalty in 2013. The band has just signed a new label deal with Century Media for the release of their latest studio album. The album is slated for release on June 11 and marks the debut album from the lineup comprised of Todd La Torre (Vocals), Michael Wilton (Guitars), Parker Lundgren (Guitars), Eddie Jackson (Bass) and Scott Rockenfield (Drums). The band premiered a snippet from a new song called "Redemption" from the upcoming release on Eddie Trunk's radio show on February 22. The 90-second snippet can be viewed at:http://youtu.be/P8iaNZBUK9c. QUEENSRYCHE join Century Media's diverse roster comprised of some of music's most recognizable talent, including IN FLAMES, IN THIS MOMENT, LACUNA COIL and ARCH ENEMY to name a few.
"QUEENSRYCHE is excited to begin writing this next chapter of our career with Century Media. Their passion and love for music has been apparent since early discussions and we are pleased to call them partners on this journey," states bassist Eddie Jackson."We are also thankful for all of the fans who have supported us from day one and helped us get to where we are today. Todd, Scott, Parker, Michael and I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for each and every one of you."
QUEENSRYCHE will also be heading out on their "Return To History World Tour" this March and April. The tour kicks off on March 5th in Dubuque, IA and makes stops in 9 different countries wrapping up on April 26th in the Netherlands. The band will also be taking to the high seas on this year's "Monsters Of Rock Cruise" and "Sweden Rock Cruise." The 23 date trek will make stops in New York, Tennessee and Florida as well as in Canada, United Kingdom and Germany amongst others. Tickets for all shows are currently on sale.
QUEENSRYCHE first burst onto the music scene in 1982 with the release of their self-titled 4 song EP Queensrÿche. They very quickly gained international recognition and performed to sold-out audiences around the world. With the follow up first full-length album The Warning in 1984, and the ground breaking 1986 release of Rage For Order, QUEENSRYCHE continued to prove their worldwide dominance as one of the most respected and creative bands of the 80's. In 1988 the band turned out yet another monumental album Operation: Mindcrime, which would go on to become one of the TOP 10 best selling concepts records of all time, and set the stage for continued sold out performances around the world. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Empire in 1991, the band earned multiple Grammy Award nominations and won the MTV "viewers choice" award for the #1 chart topping hit "Silent Lucidity". During the next ten years, the band continued to release albums and tour the world to sold-out audiences. QUEENSRYCHE has sold over 30 million albums worldwide and have continued to break new ground and push their creative process.

Visit Hendricks County Announces Staffing Promotions, ChangesMarch 07, 2013 No comments
As part of the recently announced name and logo changes to Visit Hendricks County, three full-time staff members have received promotions and another has shifted responsibilities to better fulfill the mission of selling and marketing Hendricks County as a tourist destination.
Sarah McMillen, the former Tourism Marketing Manager, has been promoted to Director of Marketing. In her new role, she will oversee the entire marketing efforts of Visit Hendricks County. McMillen has worked for the company since March 2008 starting as Marketing Coordinator before being promoted to the Tourism Marketing Manager role in 2010.
Becky Harris, the former Sales Manager, has been promoted to Director of Sales. In her new role, she will manage the sales staff and lead the company's efforts in promoting Hendricks County to group tour operators and sports groups. Harris joined Visit Hendricks County in May 2009 as a part-time Project Assistant. Within a year, she was elevated to Sales Manager.
Karen Eddy, the former Administrative Assistant who was hired in January 2012, has been promoted to Visitor Services Coordinator. In her new role, Eddy will handle general destination and organization inquiries and brochure distribution as well as managing the Event Calendar.

As Groups Manager, Whetstone will assist in motor coach trip planning and selling Hendricks County as a group-friendly destination. She joined the staff in March 2008 as the Community and Events Manager.
In addition to the staffing changes, the Tourism Commission — the governing body for Visit Hendricks County — also has undergone some recent changes.
The Commission welcomed a new member in February: Amber Armstrong, who works for Cambria Suites in Plainfield.

I've always loved magazines. It's with pleasure and anticipation that I turn the pages of my favorites, dipping into another world of color, glamour and possibilities. More than "wish books" the best ones open windows to inspiring lifestyles and spark concrete ideas that I can incorporate into my wardrobe and home and what I want to see, read and do.
One of the best, Flair, was created by Fleur Cowles, and published from February 1950 to January 1951. Cowles was a visionary and created a magazine that was unlike anything at the time or since. Covering fashion, travel, art, interior design and literature. In addition to the fabulous articles featuring contributors such as Jean Cocteau, Katherine Anne Porter, Gypsy Rose Lee, Salvador Dali and Tallulah Bankhead, each issue is a thing of art in itself, with an artful mix of photography, illustration, intricately cut pages.
Once again, it was my BFF (Best Fashion Friend) Karen, who introduced me to this wonderful find and loaned me the original copies that she's collected. And because it's back-to-school season, below are some spreads from the college issue with excerpts from the actual copy. The writing is a bit quaint and fun to read. All the issues are so visually rich, I have plans to feature more in upcoming posts.
Big men on campus. Such as Bob Jennings, president of the Triangle Club, the local high-kicking, song-hitting drama and social group. He majors in English, is polishing up a script to try out on
Hollywood and will round the world on a three-year cruise in a private schooner after graduations.
The mouton-collared greatcoat originated in the stiff cold weather bouts of the upper Midwest, has in the past few years blown into every northern campus town, many a big city. Collegians find these coats recapture the rah rah of flask-era raccoon without as much weight. They also recreate the bygone swell's mink or caracul-collared coat without like expense.
On right: A well-thought-out wardrobe relies on color and shape and endless combinations, is best when compact. It is, at first, as basic as freshman courses. Color is the first consideratjion. Which basic color is basic enough to take us through the entire year? Bright red. A good contrast and companion to red 365 days of the year? Black. We need a third color to accent and relieve the intensity of red and black. White. A well-thought-out wardrobe comes close to being, like college, a four-year plan. Work and fun, but worth it.
How to combine red and black and white into, first, eight costumes; and then, by turning all the flaps, another eight costumes. You take it from there...
Gray Matter -- Gray, dark gray, is a matter of moment at the moment and the darker it is, the better it looks.

CADO desires to raise each child with the knowledge that God created them and has a wonderful plan for their lives. Time is given each day to the study and application of God's word, the Bible. While each child in our care is encouraged to explore their spirituality, guidance and truth are applied to this exploration with the hope that they will choose to enter into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
No child is ever coerced or forced into a relationship with Jesus. Just as a biological parents lead their family spiritually, so we also lead our children to an understanding of their spiritual life. All aspects of Christian life including prayer, Bible study, devotions, outreach, and evangelism are encouraged.
Various programs have been developed to meet the needs of the communities we have CADO-Hand of Mercy Project, which include church Planting, Children outreach programs, children care centers,youth local mission and Rural water project.
Church Planting
In communities that have no gatherings of believers and where individuals have made the decision to follow Christ, CADO sends out trained local youth missionaries to foster this new-found faith and empower locals to establish a faith fellowship or place of worship. The emerging "congregations" are encouraged to work together to erect meeting place if needed. Common programs within the church include Sunday morning service, a Sunday school program for the children, a youth discipleship program, and ongoing Bible study.
Rural Church Planting. Voice Of God Christian ChurchAs a church, we have a passion for God (Father, Son and Holy Spirit), and a passion for people. This means that in all that we do we seek to bring glory to God and to be aware of where he is leading us through his Word and Holy Spirit. It also means that we are dedicated to proclaiming the gospel of Jesus Christ to those who are lost, both here in Uganda and elsewhere.
