The second ailment in commercial web today is Sectionitis. From About Us, to Photo Gallery, the Section has been the de-facto way to organize a site. While the Section itself has been a solid solution for organizing content, the side-effect, Sectionitis, has led to the dilution of great ideas and a thought process that demands you create content for the sections, instead of ideas that makes sense for your goals.
Sectionitis says, we have these 4 sections, how does your idea fit into one of these sections? If your idea doesn’t fit neatly into one of these sections, you must either mold it to fit, or create a new section. If your idea is bigger than a section, then the only answer is to make it a completely different site.
What if you have four great ideas? Sectionitis would lead you to creating four sections for your site, one for each idea. Organized, yes. But now you’ve split your budget four ways, and the result is four ideas quarter-baked.
I’m going to provide an example for this one. Mountain Dew has a “Green Label Art” initiative going on where they have independent artists create bottle labels. The website has 8 sections total, ranging from Artists to Events to Gear. And of course a landing page that binds them all.
One section of the site is a Draw Your Own label. Very cool idea. Not ground-breaking, but perfect for what they are doing. It allows a visitor to “paint” their own label design. However, the interface and functionality is lacking. It feels rushed, and an after-thought. The signs of Sectionitis.
Instead of creating a section-based site, why not make this idea the site. Spend your efforts in creating an environment that encourages the visitor to express themselves while learning about the other artists participating. Allow the visitor the ability to change the canvas to other Artists renderings, while giving them the ability to draw on it as well? Is “Events” a section that needed any part of the budget beyond a easy-to use and post RSS feed?
Sectionitis makes every section equally important, so that no section is important.
If you are in the business of conveying pure information, then neatly packed boxes is possibly the best solution for you. But if you’re in the experience/emotional business as well, then it might serve you better to keep in mind that it is more likely that a structure for site will be the by-product of great idea, rather than the other way around.

What is an auto sell off?
Auto barters include a long history inside the car business with a wide range of kinds of business utilizing them to either offer abundance stock or buy new stock for resale.
They are to a great degree well known in the USA and Japan and are picking up ubiquity in the UK where they are never again observed as messy spots. This is primarily because of the business attempting to change the notoriety of the part and make it all the more engaging all individuals, not only those 'in the exchange'.
Auto barters offer autos, business vehicles, cruisers, plant gear, and some of them will likewise offer huge products vehicles and conceivably processions and RVs.
Closeout houses don't claim the vehicles which they offer. They only go about as a shop front for various sorts of vender. These can incorporate renting organizations, armada administration organizations, merchant gatherings, banks and money related establishments, legislative bodies, police, and obviously private people.
Renting organizations lease vehicles to organizations or private drivers for a set timeframe (once in a while as meager as 1 year) so the vehicles put into sale are typically youthful models with a decent mileage and in light of the fact that the autos are generally rented from new, they may have just had one individual driving them while heading off to a gathering two times per week! At the point when the rent or rental period closes, renting organizations will enter their old stock into closeout as their clients are more keen on renting shiny new vehicles. These organizations are typically possessed by banks or budgetary establishments.
These are like Leasing organizations in that they rent their stock to associations yet vary in that they will supply their clients with an entire armada of autos and deal with that armada for the benefit of their customer. Once more, when the rental time frame for the armada closes, the organizations wish to exploit the capital wrapped up in their stock with the end goal to supplant it with new models.
On the off chance that you have ever part traded your old auto at one of the extensive, glass fronted merchants or showrooms, odds are it has in this way been put into closeout and sold. Merchant gatherings will likewise enter old or unsold stock (known as overage) from their forecourts with the end goal to keep their showrooms looking new with the most recent that the manufacturer(s) bring to the table. Obviously, purchasing a vehicle at sale which has been entered by a merchant gathering can be somewhat less secure than the renting or armada organizations as though somebody has part traded their old auto, you need to ask yourself for what valid reason did they do it, what kind of individual where they, how well did they keep it and what number of past managers has it had?
Banks and money related organizations can fall into armada and renting organizations the same number of them include these components inside their individual corporate families and pursue similar patterns. In any case, banks can likewise enter autos into closeouts that have been repossessed from their clients after defaults on advance or home loan reimbursements. Clearly an auto itself is of practically zero enthusiasm to a bank, they are just intrigued by the esteem and the cash which can be produced using it.
Government bodies will run armadas of autos for their staff and key officials and will refresh this armada all the time with the old stock being put into closeout. Separate Government offices will likewise enter an extensive variety of vehicles at closeout from ex-safeguard Land Rovers or staff autos, to grass cutters and diggers utilized on the neighborhood playing fields or in the nearby burial ground! Neighborhood Government may likewise enter autos into sale that have been seized by bailiffs pursue non installment of bills, for example, Council Tax (contingent upon the Local Authority being referred to, these can be very top of the line models).
Police powers will sell vehicles seized from sentenced hoodlums to either repay unfortunate casualties, separate an illicit home or recapture open cash picked up falsely. The police likewise sell off an assortment of different things seized for comparable reasons and may do this through a bartering house or by holding their very own property barters. And also these parcels, all police powers will likewise run an armada of covert or plain vehicles and these should be continually refreshed, with the old stock being put into sale to raise assets for the power.
This is the class of vender that we are extremely intrigued by. Private venders can enter and buy autos from closeout and if their auto isn't sold first time round, they can advise the sale house to continue placing it in until the point when they get a satisfactory offer. Be cautioned however, closeout houses will charge you for each time they enter the auto so on the off chance that you have sold your auto after a few deals, you might need to check your hold cost or reconsider your choices.
Most sales take a shot at a similar main; your imminent purchasers offer against each other, raising the sum which they offer with each new offer they make until the point when their rivals drop out and they are left as the most astounding bidder. The majority of your bidders will be in the bartering lobby (despite the fact that an online component is getting to be expanding mainstream) and all offers are made in the open. This sort of closeout is known as an 'English Auction and its equation applies to the lion's share of vehicle barters.
At the point when your vehicle touches base at the bartering focus, it will be investigated by the closeouts professionals who will feature any scratches, imprints, scrapes, rust, and so on and esteem the general harm costs. It very well may be essential to consider this when you consider your hold exchange purchasers will have a smart thought of the vehicles esteem and of the harm costs and will figure this their offering. The harm cost won't be appeared to any purchasers, it is only for the bartering house's records.
Your auto will then be shot and 'lotted', the procedure whereby your auto is gone into a deal. It will be allocated significantly number and will be put in the closeouts yard to be seen by the purchasers.
In the meantime, your vehicles points of interest will be distributed online for purchasers to take a gander at before they touch base at the bartering. This is a decent method for building enthusiasm for your auto and most sale houses will send our duplicates of their most recent indexes to their purchasers.
These things are critical to purchasers and on the off chance that you were purchasing an auto, you would hope to have everything that you could have identifying with it so think about these when you enter your auto.
Obviously, you will likewise need to leave your key and any extras with the closeout.
At the point when your vehicle is arranging to be crashed into the closeout corridors, purchasers will begin to take a gander at the auto, searching for any harm and they may open the ways to take a gander at the inside. Purchasers are not generally permitted to test drive autos or look under the hood so this procedure of conclusive assessment is critical to them.
When your auto is set up before the barker, the autos subtle elements and any uncommon highlights, for example, additional inside highlights, amalgam wheels, and so forth, will be perused to the gathering of people. The barker will then begin the offering with an opening offer beneath your hold. On the off chance that there is a lot of enthusiasm for your auto, offers can rise quick with numerous individuals contending. In the end, the barker may drop the increments in size to sums that the last couple of bidders feel more good with. This could imply that you see increments of £50 for your auto instead of the £500s you were seeing comfortable begin. The purchaser with the last most noteworthy offer has now purchased your auto as long as their most noteworthy offer was over your hold. Now the purchaser has gone into a legitimate contract.
In the event that the last most astounding offer did not exactly meet your hold, the salesperson may class this a temporary offer and the closeout will then endeavor to consult among you and the purchaser. Now, you can request more cash or request that your hold be met. On the off chance that you go too high and the purchaser hauls out, the deal will fail to work out. It is an exercise in careful control between what the purchaser is set up to offer and the base sum you will acknowledge.
On the off chance that you achieve an understanding, the deal will experience as typical.

As the non-traditional student population continues to grow, associations and institutions in the higher education marketplace are developing new strategies to reach out to these learners.
The Center for Innovative Professional Development, established by Pine Manor College, is targeted towards professional working adults and is set to begin in the fall. The program caters to adult learners who have already obtained an associate’s degree or have completed at least two years of college course credits.
“Our goal from the beginning was to create a program that would address the time and cost of completing your bachelor’s degree,” Charles A. Tweedly, dean of the Center and faculty member at Pine Manor College, said in a press release.
The initiative features a “project-based” approach to its educational delivery style that allows students to build practical skills that can be immediately applied to the workforce.
In addition to higher education institutions creating unique programs for adult learners, associations closely tied to the industry are also taking leaps to help adults ease the burdens of returning to school. The Learning Counts program is a new initiative launched by the Council for Adult Experiential Learning (CAEL) that targets adults, especially veterans.
“Our nation’s veterans need career and educational guidance — to translate military experience into civilian jobs and college-level learning, to navigate postsecondary education and most importantly, to obtain recognition of their military learning for credit,” Pamela Tate, chief executive officer and president of CAEL, said in a press release.
CAEL’s new program is intended to provide assistance to adult learners to explore their educational options by finding the best ways to turn previous working experience and skills, including military service experience into credits that allow for faster, easier degree competition.
“Adults know their knowledge comes from more than just a course, a classroom or a lecture, and we know it too,” she said.

The speculation regarding the future of Bitcoin has remained a persistent phenomenon. Predictions about what may become of the cryptocurrency have come in different shapes and sizes. Where is Bitcoin headed? What factors will determine the stability, or lack thereof, of Bitcoin?
A number of government and bank executives have openly criticized the currency, considering what they have perceived in their opinion as fundamental factors that will work against the currency in the near future.
One example is Jamie Dimon’s, CEO at JP Morgan, comment on CNBC in Davos.
Cointelegraph asked experts what they make of these negative predictions from certain quarters regarding the cryptocurrency.
The reasons he gave for this includes the fact that Bitcoin is already being accepted around the globe by many of the largest shopping sites, he also stated that more than a hundred thousand new people start using Bitcoin every single week and that these are the signs of a currency that is on a path to be used worldwide, stating categorically that Team Bitcoin has an amazing amount of talented and creative people working to make it a success.
“People will look back upon Jamie Dimon’s quote the same way we look back at Paul Krugman’s quote about the internet becoming no more important than the fax machine.” Concluded Roger.
“No surprise, this monologue has been repeated since day one yet Bitcoin is the best performing currency in 2015 (from what I understand). Banks have focused on taking things they love most about Bitcoin and removing things they don't. So now you're left with back office efficiencies among banks leading to lower operational costs, none of which is very exciting or beneficial to humanity in the biggest picture.
“Parroting the unified media statement of the banks only points the finger back to themselves and uncovers how scared to death they are vis-a-vis bitcoin. Their actual goals are to make savings, present some "innovations to their investors", and to preserve the financial status quo, not to enhance it, not to repair what is wrong, no!
That's why I strongly believe in Bitcoin, there is a vision for an independent private ownership, for a free and voluntary exchange. Bitcoin may not have the budgets and the PR crew, it may have technical difficulties to overcome, but it has a clear reason for existence.
“Clearly, Jamie doesn’t find Bitcoin (the currency) useful for him and he probably can’t imagine ever using it. And of course, if Bitcoin is not useful for you it will be hard to imagine that it can also be useful for others, that is why we keep hearing experts telling us that Bitcoin is going to fail. Give it some time, these experts always turn out to be wrong.
Sam Castaneda is the Co-Founder at UTXO, a Bitcoin company based in Texas. This is Sam’s opinion.
There’s no doubt that Bitcoin has waxed stronger and become more popular with the passage of time, where it goes from here and what it becomes in the future will definitely unfold before the eyes of everyone.

I have always found the idea of working with markup languages especially HTML which is used so often, quite cumbersome and repetitive. Most of the time we spend building a website is used up in generating and hosting useful content which means tons of p tags, hrefs and imgs to be dealt with. Now there are tons of tools out there which can improve our workflow as far as web application development is concerned. I am particularly interested in markdown.
Markdown is an amazing utility that let’s us type in almost plain text to get rich HTML formatted documents. It’s according to me one of those WYSIWYG editors out there. Almost all of the blogging sites use it, stackoverflow uses it’s own flavor of markdown for posting answers and comments. Github uses it for showing a short description for every project it hosts, it’s called the README.md( md and markdown are the extensions to denote markdown source) file.
Paragraphs in markdown can be written exactly like normal text, it’s automatically surrounded by p tags. Images and links can also be easily embedded and code blocks can be as simple as indenting by 4 spaces or using backticks (`). It gives us the flexibility of adding classes and id’s in some flavors(not all).
I am not saying that markdown can completely replace HTML. Well not yet, but it’s getting there, there is still a lot of functionality missing in markdown. However we can tap all the goodies that it has to offer and generate good content on the web efficiently.
Paul Irish on the revolution of chrome dev tools.
What interested me most was the slides he used were authored in markdown and during this presentation he edited some of the source in the chrome dev tools, saved and hit refresh and the HTML output was generated, local files were modified and all of this happend on the fly!
I really wanted to see this happen. So I made a little markdown preprocessor of my own currently hosted on github , here. I have used PHP Markdown and google prettify for the markdown and code highlighting. If you want some client side utility for the same, I suggest getting started with showdown.js and highlight.js.
Chrome dev tools are evolving to replace IDE’s in the future and with tools like livereload , live-edit(already embedded in chrome devtools) and the autosave feature(which lets you map local files to the sources in chrome dev tools– will ship with the later versions of chrome, those who want to try now can download a developer version of chrome canary), it’s already happening.

I have always found the idea of working with markup languages especially HTML which is used so often , quite cumbersome and repetitive . Most of the time we spend building a website is used up in generating and hosting useful content which means tons of p tags , hrefs and imgs to be dealt with . Now there are tons of tools out there which can improve our workflow as far as web application development is concerned . I am particularly interested in markdown .
 Markdown is an amazing utility that let ’s us type in almost plain text to get rich HTML formatted documents . It ’s according to me one of those WYSIWYG editors out there . Almost all of the blogging sites use it , stackoverflow uses it ’s own flavor of markdown for posting answers and comments . Github uses it for showing a short description for every project it hosts , it ’s called the README.md ( md and markdown are the extensions to denote markdown source ) file .
 Paragraphs in markdown can be written exactly like normal text , it ’s automatically surrounded by p tags . Images and links can also be easily embedded and code blocks can be as simple as indenting by 4 spaces or using backticks ( ` ) . It gives us the flexibility of adding classes and i d ’s in some flavors(not all ) .
 I am not saying that markdown can completely replace HTML . Well not yet , but it ’s getting there , there is still a lot of functionality missing in markdown . However we can tap all the goodies that it has to offer and generate good content on the web efficiently .
 Paul Irish on the revolution of chrome dev tools .
 What interested me most was the slides he used were authored in markdown and during this presentation he edited some of the source in the chrome dev tools , saved and hit refresh and the HTML output was generated , local files were modified and all of this happend on the fly !
 I really wanted to see this happen . So I made a little markdown preprocessor of my own currently hosted on github , here . I have used PHP Markdown and google prettify for the markdown and code highlighting . If you want some client side utility for the same , I suggest getting started with showdown.js and highlight.js .

Mohamed @ Daud, Norizah and Mohd Aris, Noorfazreen and Abas, Sharipah Amirah and Abd Muaziz, Noraini (2017) Pembangunan wakaf kesihatan: Model operasi dan pengurusan Hospital Waqaf An-Nur (HWAN) / Norizah Mohamed @ Daud … [et al.]. In: 2nd International Islamic Heritage Conference (ISHEC 2017), 14-15 November 2017, Avillion Hotel Melaka.
Waqf is a unique form of welfare in Islam because it is worship that combines both spiritual and material aspects. Waqf plays a major role in helping the government to provide services such as health and education to the society. This could be clearly seen during the golden age of Islam at the time of the Ottoman Empire. This article discusses the model of operation and management of Waqaf An-Nur Hospital (HWAN) and contribution played by the Waqf at Waqaf An-Nur Hospital (HWAN) in providing healthcare services to the local community. Health is a necessity for all, but for the poor and low-income people, health becomes a very expensive thing. The implementation of this hospital is seen as an alternative for low-income people, especially for the poor and the needy to receive medical treatment, regardless of race and religion. Data were collected by interviewing the Operations Manager and Senior Executive of WANCorp. Data from the interviews were analysed using content analysis based on themes. The results from this study show that Waqaf An-Nur Hospital is an alternative to help ease the financial burden of society in terms of health and medical care because the cost of treatment is increasing from year to year.

I have had the honour of being selected for the Visual Art Scotland Graduate Showcase Exhibition in The Annual Exhibition at the Royal Scottish Academy – Edinburgh in January 2016 – I being one, of only six students in Scotland to have been chosen.
I’m on the hunt for work experience, I wonder if you can help me?
I would be very grateful if you could take a few minutes to have a look at my PDF download CV, – with a view to be considered for employment, internship, apprenticeship or work experience in an Artist Blacksmith workshop environment. I would very much appreciate the opportunity to experience that style of working environment. I would welcome any opportunity you might have to offer, even if it’s making the tea and emptying the bins.
Thank you for taking the time to look at my website and I hope to hear from you very soon.
I created this website to document the four years I spent at DJCAD. It shows some examples of the projects and the work I created over the four years.

Did you miss BEA? NetGalley to the rescue!
Last week the publishing world convened in New York for BookExpo America—the largest book trade fair in the U.S. BEA is an annual event that gives publishers an opportunity to launch their biggest upcoming titles and meet with colleagues across the publishing industry. NetGalley attends BEA to connect face-to-face with our members and publisher clients to share information about new features on the site and reminders about how to get the most out of your NetGalley account.
This year our Concierge Team met with over 50 publishers to help them better connect with readers on NetGalley. From independent presses and authors to the Big 5, we had fun hearing which books they’re most excited about, and gave them lots of ideas for utilizing NetGalley in their campaigns. We encouraged them to customize their new Publisher Profiles—readers, go ahead and “favorite” the ones you love!
Tarah, your Reader Concierge, also met with many NetGalley members. During these meetings members had the opportunity to ask questions about using their accounts, how they can utilize their account best for their specific member type and previewing needs, and also a quick profile review to make sure they have the best possible chance of being approved by publisher for titles.
These meetings also focused on the NetGalley Wellness Challenge theme: “Do you book talk?” Tarah shared information about what publishers are looking for when you submit Feedback, so they can see how NetGalley members are building buzz to help launch new books. Learn our tips by participating in our Wellness Challenge—if you haven’t signed the Pledge, there’s still time!

The London International Book Fair is one of the key events in the literary world; the whole world converging on Earls Court in the South West of the capital to sell rights, seal reputations and look into the future of publishing and books. Naturally, NetGalley was there to meet members and clients both – as well as get the inside track on what’s new.
The NetGalley stand was right at the heart of the Digital Zone – once a niche area within the vast aircraft hangar space of Earls Court, but now probably the most vibrant, diverse and popular destination at the fair. Situated next to the AuthorZone lecture theatre – co-sponsored by NetGalley publisher Troubador – we were lucky to hear a series of fascinating discussions and talks about how writers can thrive in the digital age. Many independent publishers and authors stopped off to speak with us on their way back from the stage – which was hugely interesting.
Among the personal highlights were catching up with new and old publishers and members of NetGalley. We especially enjoyed meeting Georgia and Samuel from www.readgig.com – and you can check out their blog about the fair here. Most excitingly of all was the news that several UK publishers confirmed at the fair that they will soon be joining NetGalley. We can’t tell you who they are yet, but we’ll be sure to announce it just as soon as we can!
Next month it’s the turn of New York to play host to the literary world at Book Expo America. Please do stop by Booth #DZ1774 and say hello to Kristina, Susan, Lindsey and Tarah!
If you’re a blogger attending BEA or the Book Bloggers Conference, don’t miss out out on the NetGalley Wellness Challenge!
If you’ll be in NYC for BookExpo America, we want to meet you! NetGalley will be attending the BEA Bloggers Conference on Wednesday, May 29th, as well as the rest of the annual BookExpo America tradeshow through June 1st. Read on for full details, including how you can sign up for a face-to-face meeting with me, your Reader Concierge! We can’t wait to see you.
Register to attend BEA Bloggers Conference to learn, be inspired, and connect with book bloggers, authors, and publishing industry professionals. You will benefit from a jam-packed day of education, extreme networking, and the passion and fun that surrounds book blogging.

 The London International Book Fair is one of the key events in the literary world ; the whole world converging on Earls Court in the South West of the capital to sell rights , seal reputations and look into the future of publishing and books . Naturally , NetGalley was there to meet members and clients both – as well as get the inside track on what ’s new .
 The NetGalley stand was right at the heart of the Digital Zone – once a niche area within the vast aircraft hangar space of Earls Court , but now probably the most vibrant , diverse and popular destination at the fair . Situated next to the AuthorZone lecture theatre – co - sponsored by NetGalley publisher Troubador – we were lucky to hear a series of fascinating discussions and talks about how writers can thrive in the digital age . Many independent publishers and authors stopped off to speak with us on their way back from the stage – which was hugely interesting .
 Among the personal highlights were catching up with new and old publishers and members of NetGalley . We especially enjoyed meeting Georgia and Samuel from www.readgig.com – and you can check out their blog about the fair here . Most excitingly of all was the news that several UK publishers confirmed at the fair that they will soon be joining NetGalley . We ca n’t tell you who they are yet , but we ’ll be sure to announce it just as soon as we can !
 Next month it ’s the turn of New York to play host to the literary world at Book Expo America . Please do stop by Booth # DZ1774 and say hello to Kristina , Susan , Lindsey and Tarah !

When Mount St. Helens erupted in 1980, the world saw nature flexing its mighty muscles, spewing lava and danger in every direction. It wasn’t until after the eruption that man discovered the destructive contents of the volcano could be turned into something beautiful— a glowing green stone known as helenite.
The Men’s Volcanic Helenite Ring lets you subdue the mighty power of that volcano and slip it onto your finger, with a full two carats of volcanic material captured and converted into the green stone helenite and set in gold-finished sterling silver.
The result is impressive both for the power it contains and for the ingenuity required to get it there. We appreciate that the raw natural strength of helenite may be too much for some men to handle, but those up the challenge can experience the Men’s Volcanic Helenite Ring.

Aside from calling a car accident attorney to help you handle the legal details of the case, putting in a call to the local law enforcement for help is a must. That’s because police can properly record the scene of the accident and provide you with valuable records and evidence that your lawyer can use in court later on, says How Stuff Works.
Some people think they don’t need to call in the police, believing the accident is minor. But while the damage to your car might be minor, it could lead to major health problems for you, especially if you end up suffering from an internal injury. You’ll have a much harder time going through the claims process with insurance companies if police aren’t involved. Cover your bases and make things easier on your car accident attorney by getting law enforcement assistance right from the start.
The accident could result in internal injuries. Symptoms for internal injuries could take a day or two to occur. The insurance company may give you a hard time about the accident if you don’t have an accident report filed. By calling the police, you can essentially speed up the claims process.
Police can keep you and the other party from coming to blows. They can help keep the peace and ensure everyone keeps a steady frame of mind at the scene. This will prove helpful in ensuring faster and speedier resolution to your case.

The mission of the Council is to enhance public safety in Carlton County through community collaboration by ensuring offender accountability, providing rehabilitation programs and supporting the rights and needs of victims.
The purpose of the coalition is to bringing awareness of substance abuse issues through education, prevention, enforcement, intervention and treatment to build a healthy and safe community.
The reason behind this partnership is to address the challenge and opportunity of “Kindergarten surprises” –the numerous children who show up for Kindergarten who aren’t on the district census, haven’t been screened or offered other enrichment opportunities, simply because the district did not know they were in the community.
Children living in poverty are more likely to move frequently, not be on school district census rolls, and are less likely to be ready for school. However, WIC services can follow a family wherever they may live, and many families find and stay connected to WIC as a fundamental service even when they move.
Through this collaboration, school districts receive contact information for families residing in their district, sent with consent by WIC. Then, school district staff is able make a personal connection with each family and continue to follow up with information on early childhood services and screening.

text: Darin Hammond curated and posted this article on Google+, and boy, does it hit the mark right now. It’s been harder for me to blog these days, just because I’ve been busy. As I write this, I just got back from a conference a mere 2.5 hours ago. I know I don’t always find the balance. Now that I’m going to be working for myself, and working to gather a clientele (and help the clientele I have for the moment), I need to figure out how to find that balance between getting some good blog posts in again, and working on getting other things done as well. (Not today, I’m exhausted and I think the jet lag will hit any minute.) But I also take my time writing, because I want to make sure I write something that has some value, and that it’s written well (or at least half-decently).

The Scotiabank Saddledome is the primary indoor arena of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It has a seating capacity of 19,289 people.
The facility also hosts concerts, conferences and other sporting championships, and events for the Calgary Exhibition and Stampede.

The facility was given the name Pengrowth Saddledome in 2000, after Pengrowth Management Ltd. signed a ten-year agreement. It adopted its current name in October 2010 as Scotiabank signed on as title sponsor. The Saddledome is the second NHL venue that Scotiabank is a title sponsor of, after Scotiabank Place in Ottawa (home of the Senators).

And so it begins Hello! I hope to find a friend possibly a confidant who will never fail to surprise me! Why contact me I hear you say? Why indeed because I am amiable, habitually view the world through rose coloured spectacles and thrive on spontaneity. Words which can be used to encapsulate me include: open minded, honest, free spirited and interesting! If you fancy breathing a different type of air (ooops my halo is titling!) then I will be genuinely encouraged to hear from you.

I am safe and sound in Amman, and I am currently writing in the AMIDEAST lounge. Everything is settling in nicely. This new sense of peace as I’m getting used to Amman is very welcome, as actually getting to the country was an extremely hectic experience. I flew with two friends of mine who are studying in the program with me, and pretty much everything that could have gone wrong with our flights did go wrong. After a cancelled flight to Toronto, three delays to Frankfurt, and a missed flight to Amman, I started to think that maybe this was a bad sign. However, we were lucky to have each other and made it to Amman only a couple hours later than originally expected. It felt great to have my friends by my side, and while we sat in the airport waiting to be taken to our hotel, it felt right to be there. Even though the trip to Amman was rough, I am not going to let my experience in Amman be a reflection of that.
It hurt to hear comments like that, and I will admit that it scared me a little. But I made sure to remind myself of why I wanted to study abroad in the MENA region in the first place; I don’t want my fear to hold me back from seeing the world and all its wonders.

For as long as I can remember, I have been interested in studying the world and the different cultures that occupy it. Language has always fascinated me and I view it as the portal to understanding different ideas, values, and people. I entered my freshman year determined to learn a new language, but I didn’t want to take a European or western language. Being American, I see that the western world influences so many things, not necessarily just international relations and politics, but media and music. I have lived my whole life within this extremely influential sphere, but it is not the only one I want to know. Chinese and Japanese appeared too daunting so I chose Arabic, a language that I knew nothing about. As you can guess, this decision changed my life.
Since I am a religious studies major, I am driven by justice and a strong sense of morality. These motivations have specifically attracted me to Jordan, and the MENA region as a whole, due to its religious history and reality and its quantity of refugees. Studying in the MENA region is so valuable to me because I get to live in a country most people know little about, or are too afraid to explore due to its representation in the Western media and the fear of the unknown.
