How Do You Know If You Need A Master’s Degree for a Career in Science and Technology?

Humanity has a love-hate relationship with technology. Our growing reliance on new and updated systems, networks and products presents both challenges and benefits to our global society. But undoubtedly, its impact is a pervasive reminder of what we can do.

Technology is integral to modern life. As tech professionals, we are responsible for designing, building and applying scientific principles to meet the technological demands of our society. Whether we work in the utilities or healthcare industry, aviation sector or IT field, keeping up to date with the latest developments and predicting future needs is a critical part of what we do.

Application-oriented knowledge and specialized training is inherent in the field. So I understand when technology professionals question the practicality of a master’s degree. This is a fair question from people who are trained to inquire, examine and solve complex problems.

At the end of the day, my response can always be summed up in one word: goals.

If one of your career goals includes managing other people, then earning a graduate degree can help you develop the skills necessary to advance. Your undergraduate education likely focused on the disciplinary aspects of your career; a graduate degree emphasizes the critical evaluation, decision-making and problem-solving skills required to lead today’s technical enterprises.

Why Are Technical Skills Not Enough?

Technology rarely exists by itself. Although we work in highly specialized fields, we often interact with people who rely on that technology but have no technical background.  We also collaborate with people on complex projects, solve difficult problems and make decisions with people who maintain and improve that technology.

Yes, as a manager, you must have a thorough understanding of the specialization that you are managing. However, advancement is tied to how well you can lead people and manage projects. Your success as an engineer, specialist or officer is no guarantee that you will be successful at managing others. Good leadership is more than management tactics and collaborative strategies. Leadership talent is derived from engaging employees, overcoming adversity, driving productivity and performance improvement that results in a significant competitive advantage.

Today, most technology fields require a graduate degree to qualify for executive and management positions. Perhaps it is because these organizations recognize that the most effective leaders possess a combination of technical expertise and the ability to supervise the work of their employees. A working knowledge of a discipline is no longer enough; today’s leaders must be adept in continuous process improvement, production and operations management, quality control, corporate social responsibility, ethical and regulatory issues, and general management principles. They must be able to solve safety issues, technological and human performance challenges, all while measuring productivity and driving profitable innovation. Simply put, in today’s increasingly competitive job market, having a graduate degree provides most candidates with a competitive advantage.

So if you are debating whether to attend graduate school and pursue a master’s degree in applied science and technology, I urge you to counter my earlier one word response with one of your own: Do you want to lead?

Yes or no?

Moving Tips from the TV Show ''Friends''

July 18th, 2011 - 3:23 PM

Moving Tips and Tricks from the TV Show "FRIENDS"

These days, channels like "DIY" and "HGTV" offer lots of TV programs that teach you how to flip a house, make quick fixes to sell your home in a month, and even decorate your new place like a celebrity on a modest budget. With all of that activity, who has time for a regular old sitcom?

Here's something that might surprise you— I've found several moving tips and tricks from the popular TV show "FRIENDS" that can help you through a cross country move. Who knew? Despite endless teasing from my friends and coworkers, this die-hard fan decided it was time to share "What I've Learned about Moving from FRIENDS". Check out these wise quotes and apply the hidden lessons to make your move much less stressful!

Monica: "Honey, that's a great idea nailing the boxes to the floor."
Chandler: "I didn't nail the boxes to the floor."
Monica: "Oh, so you CAN move them!"
The takeaway: a little elbow grease goes a long way. If you're up for packing and loading, U-Pack can handle the driving— at a rate that's comparable to truck rental. You'll conserve funds and still be able to travel to your new home in the comfort of your own vehicle.

Joey: (In reference to moving into an apartment alone) "I thought it'd be great, you know? To have some time alone with my thoughts... turns out, I don't have as many thoughts as you'd think."
The takeaway: Just like Joey, things may not always turn out like you had planned. Be sure to have room in your moving budget for the unexpected— what if the utilities can't be turned on in your new home for a few more days? You may need to stay in a nearby hotel or purchase a few supplies for 'roughing it' in the new house. It's always a good idea to have a Plan B!

Monica: "Whoa. Where you going in those pants? 1982?"
The takeaway: When in doubt, throw it out! One of our favorite moving tips and tricks to point out is that moving is the perfect time for a garage sale. Go through your belongings as you pack and weed out items that are outdated or no longer used, then hold a sale or donate the items to a local charity. An added bonus? Having less stuff just means there's less you have to move!

Chandler: "I can handle this. 'Handle' is my middle nameactually, "handle" is the middle of my first name."
The takeaway: Even though moving can be stressful, it's far from impossible. A little planning and organization will help you streamline the process— and if you go U-Pack, you can even work in a little sightseeing fun on the drive to your new home!

Joey: "Hey Pheebs, you wanna help?"
Phoebe: "Oh, I wish I could, but I really don't want to."
The takeaway: Another of my favorite moving tips and tricks— recruit friends and family to help you pack. If they need a little persuading, order a few pizzas as a thank-you (while still staying within your budget).

Monica: "Look, Joey feels really bad for what happened. He thinks you hate him. He wants to move to Vermont. "
Ross: "I don't hate him. You know what; I'll go talk to him. It's not his fault."
Monica: "Thank you. He already asked me where he could exchange his dollars for 'Vermont money'."
The takeaway: Whether it's before or after moving day, schedule some time to get to know your new neighborhood. It may seem like a foreign country at first, but it will likely only takes a few days of exploring to get your bearings. Some locations you may want to scope out in advance: the best parks, nearby shopping malls, the kids' new schools, and local restaurant favorites.

I could go on for a while with the FRIENDS quotes, but I should probably save those for another day. If it's moving tips and tricks that you're after, we're always happy to help! Leave a comment, 'Ask the Experts', or call 800-413-4799 for assistance.

Packing Paper for Moving

February 22nd, 2019 - 3:51 PM

Using packing paper for a residential move

When scanning any list of packing essentials, you’ll likely see packing paper at the top of the list. That’s because paper is versatile — you can use it in a variety of ways, from wrapping dishes and knick-knacks to padding boxes. Let’s take a closer look at what packing paper is, how much is needed, the advantages of using it, and how to use it.

An overhead shot of a brown cardboard moving box stuffed with brown packing paper

How much do you need?

No two moves are the same, but in general, you want to have plenty of packing paper on hand. To help you prepare, the U-Pack Box Store offers professional-grade, unprinted paper. There are four different selections available:

  • 10 pounds of packing paper — includes approximately 200 sheets. Would be ideal for a studio apartment or one-bedroom move.
  • 25 pounds of packing paper — includes around 500 sheets. Great for a multiple room home, or for anyone with a china collection to protect.
  • 50 pounds of packing paper — includes about 1,000 sheets. The perfect bundle for larger homes or those with collections to wrap.
  • 100 pounds of packing paper — includes roughly 2,000 sheets. This pack is great for six-plus bedroom homes or anyone with lots of small items to pack.

Why choose packing paper?

You might have saved up a bunch of newspapers to use for packing and wrapping in anticipation of your move. However, the black ink used for newsprint can rub off onto your things. And while the ink isn’t harmful, it can get messy, and you may have to wash or clean those items after the move. Adding that extra step can be a hassle when you’re in the middle of unpacking, so it’s best to not use newspapers at all.

Here are some other advantages to using packing paper instead of newspaper:

The sheets are the perfect size. Packing paper sheets measure 24” x 36” each, which is large enough to cover most items.

Packing paper protects items. It’s acid- and ink-free.

Packing paper sheets are stronger. We recommend using the paper as a cushion in the bottom of the moving box and as filler in partially-full boxes. Newspaper will crumble too tightly and not provide the support that packing paper can.

Packing paper holds its shape. This is helpful because when wrapping items, you won’t always have to use tape to secure it. Once you make a crease around an object, it normally stays put, making packing simple.

Best ways to use packing paper

Now that you know the advantages, let’s take a look at the best ways to use packing paper during and after your move.

  • Use it to wrap fragile items. Packing paper is most commonly used to wrap or protect items you don’t want to be damaged. Small things like pieces of china or crystal can be packaged using a single sheet like you’re wrapping a gift. Wrap larger or more fragile things with two layers to provide a little more protection.
  • Use it as padding at the bottom of the box. Packing paper isn’t just for wrapping your things. You can crumble it up and add a little extra cushion at the base of the box to help prevent damage.
  • Use it to fill unused space in the box. If you don’t fill the box all the way, use packing paper to fill up any remaining space in the box. This helps ensure items in the box are snug and won’t shift or slip while in transit.
  • Recycle it when you finish! Yes, packing paper is recyclable, so once you get unpacked, you can recycle used packing paper (and other used and unwanted moving materials). Recycling center requirements vary, so make sure to check with them in advance for the safest and most efficient way to dispose of your materials.

Each day, she said, she makes it a point to greet every student with a smile, show them respect, and offer a listening ear.

“Treat others as you would like them to treat you,” Williams said. “If you say good morning and thank you to the students, they will eventually say those same things back to you.” Continue reading

Why Do I Keep on Beating the Same Little Drum?

Another day, another blog. And I seem to say the same thing in different ways day after day (maybe in not such different ways, but I try). I wish my repertoire were more varied, and I sympathize with any readers who skip over my blogs muttering “same old, same old.” But in my defense, don’t you think it’s a shame that I have to keep complaining endlessly about the same abuses? Don’t you think that things should’ve improved by now?

Here it is the end of 2013, and Americans are still shooting each other – and each other’s kids. I’m sure you know about that teenager in Colorado who blasted that pretty girl in the face with a 12 gauge shotgun a couple of days ago. Another shooting in Colorado, where two Democratic senators lost their seats in recall drives because they dared to vote for very modest gun control.

You would think the Newtown Massacre was enough to end the tyranny of the arms manufacturers, but here it is a year later, and the blood keeps right on flowing. I read an article by Bill Moyers and Michael Winship in Salon.com this morning that just about broke what’s left of my heart. The headline charges (justifiably I think):

The NRA has our children’s blood on their hands

And the subhead reports that:

One year after the Newtown killings, 194 kids have been shot to death but only 11 states have passed gun laws.

Elections come and go, campaigns collect millions of dollars, pundits bemoan the Great American Tragedy. But the merchants of death and their minions in the National Rifle Association have proved invincible. The Salon article reminds us that:

There has been a lot of killing in America since Newtown a year ago, perhaps more than 30,000 gun deaths since that fatal day. And gun purchases are way up. The biggest publicly traded firearms manufacture in the United States, Sturm Ruger, had more than half a billion dollars in sales for the first nine months of this year, 45 percent higher than two years ago, with a 67 percent profit rise over the same period.

Does that make you want to rush out and buy some stock in Sturn Ruger? It makes me want to write a blog – yes, another blog – about the senseless way weapons are bought and sold in America.

In the past week or so, I’ve read at least two stories in the local paper describing fatal gun accidents. In one case, a woman shot her daughter to death by mistake because she thought it was her enraged boyfriend banging on the door of her house. And the woman’s daughter was holding her baby in her arms. Mercifully the baby was not hurt. In another case, a woman went outside to look for something in her boyfriend’s truck, and her rummaging around discharged a firearm. The woman’s 2-year-old son was following her and the bullet killed him.

How ironic! Those people bought those guns as protection!

I know all about gun safety and “responsible gun ownership.” My family grew up around guns. And I know guns go off when they’re not supposed to, even in the most careful hands.

I know there’s nothing I can say to convince our politicians to stand up to the NRA. Our local mayor lost his job because he dared to sign a letter to the President – along with a bunch of other mayors – pleading for saner gun laws. The NRA backed his opponent. Imagine that! The mighty NRA taking the trouble to become involved in the politics of our little town.

It could be a waste of time, writing this blog. It sure seems like it. But I can’t be silent when this horror is going on.

I have to keep beating my little drum… Pa rum pum pum pum, as the Christmas song goes …

Fiona Onasanya’s not the Messiah, she’s a very naughty girl

20 December 2018

1:26 PM

20 December 2018

1:26 PM

As MPs begin to drift back to their constituencies this afternoon, there’s one MP who’s definitely not finished the year on a high. Labour MP Fiona Onasanya was found guilty yesterday of perverting the course of justice, after a court found that she had lied to police about speeding and using her mobile phone to avoid getting points on her driving license.

Obviously being found guilty of a serious offence while being an elected representative would prompt some soul searching, but Onasanya has come up with a rather novel interpretation of what the judgment means for her.

In a series of WhatsApp messages sent to her Labour colleagues (which have now been revealed to the Times) Onasanya asked them to pray for her and compared her plight to that of several biblical figures, including Jesus.

In the missive, she first hinted that she would not quit as an MP, and said that this was now the beginning of a ‘new chapter’ of her ‘story’, much like Jesus.

And then went on to say:

‘In times like these the natural inclination of believers is to ask God why? I personally do not, because in my experience the answers are usually far above and beyond my reach. What I do know is that I am in good biblical company along with Joseph, Moses, Daniel and his three Hebrew friends who were each found guilty by the courts of their day.’

Mr S must have missed that section of the Old Testament where Moses was caught speeding down the M25…

  • Gold Loses Its Sparkle

    Bloomberg News

    By Clementine Wallop and Francesca Freeman

    Gold hasn’t had the best week. After a Greek election result that spurred profit-taking, an FOMC statement that sparked long liquidation, and a push higher for the U.S. dollar, the shiny metal has been left somewhat tarnished.

    Spot gold is currently trading around $1,570 a troy ounce, down 3.5% since last Friday’s close and 3.7% lower than at the start of June. With many market participants previously tipping this week as a crucial test of gold’s safe haven status, has gold missed its chance to prove itself?

    Monday saw gold soften after a pro-bailout party won the Greek vote, soothing immediate concerns over a Greek exit from the euro zone and leading some investors to take profits on the previous week’s safe-haven bets.

    The metal then fell further late Wednesday and Thursday after a Fed statement signaled only modest stimulus measures rather than the full QE3 blowout the market was hoping for.

    While gold has stabilized somewhat Friday, it has failed to find much upward traction. Despite lower prices, physical demand for the metal remains lackluster and without the promise of aggressive U.S. stimulus, gold may struggle for upward momentum in coming weeks, say market participants.

  • Wi-Fi on the Private Jet: What Took Them so Long?

    Wi-Fi in the sky isn’t exactly a rare luxury anymore. If you fly on AirTran Airways, USAir, Virgin America flights, and on some planes operated by Air Canada, Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines flights, chances are you can get wireless. There is a fee, but it is available to the masses.

    Bloomberg News
    The interior of a Textron Citation, a jet that is part of the NetJets fleet.

    As for many of the flying elite, well, they have been largely Wi-Fi deprived. But now NetJets, the world’s largest private jet operator, has announced that it struck a deal to equip its jets with Wi-Fi Internet service.

    That’s right, it is mid-2010, and people who pay hundreds of thousands of dollars a year for a fractional jet ownership are only now able to get the same information service offered to passengers paying $350 for a round trip on AirTrans.

    Better late than never, I guess. And kudos to NetJets for finally getting on board. XO Jet and others have been rolling out wireless for a while..

    But for an industry that sells itself to the public as a “productivity tool” rather than an indulgent luxury, not having Internet service seems like an obvious gap. Especially for the tech-crazed rich. Can you imagine Bill Gates, pictured in the NetJets ads with pal Warren Buffett, going for five hours without access to the Web?

    NetJets Chief Operating Officer Bill Noe, told the Columbus Dispatch: “A group of our owners has been asking for this for a long time. It’s been looked at before, but the decision to allocate capital to it was just made recently.”

    The company is teaming up with Colorado’s Aircell, which is the leading provider of Wi-Fi to the commercial airlines. NetJets riders will get one privilege not available to commercial riders: NetJet’s Wi-Fi will be free.

    “What private aviation can’t be doing is playing catch-up with the major airlines,” Scott Liston, executive vice president of Aviation Research Group/U.S., of Cincinnati, told the Dispatch. “This is a recognition that this (Wi-Fi) has become an expectation for the high-end traveler.”

    Why do you think Wi-Fi took so long to reach many private jets?

Forex Flash: EUR could find support after ECB meeting – Danske Bank

The single currency is waiting for the ECB statement glued to the area around 1.3560/70 on Thursday, against a backdrop of prevailing risk-on mode. Market expectations for a change in the repo rate are practically zero, although the FX community expects some fireworks from Draghi’s press conference.

Chief Analyst A.Lohman-Rasmussen at Danske Bank, believes that if President Draghi somehow talks down the recent uptick in EONIA rates, that could plot against any attempt by the single currency to gather further traction. The expert added that If this case materializes, the pullback would be temporary.

“In our view the market is far too optimistic that Draghi will try to talk down the euro today and we actually believe that EUR/USD will at end of the day be higher. Remember, that the macro economic picture is better than a month ago when Draghi sounded relatively upbeat. Today, he might even add that the repayment of the LTRO money is a sign of health, which should steepen the money market curve further adding further support to the euro”, he concludes.

Forex Flash: ECB Draghi's refusal to play Hollande's game to strengthen EUR/USD - Commerzbank

Recent euro strength has turned into a debate, initiated mainly by France, and is likely to become the centre of attention at today's ECB press conference. Commerzbank analysts don't see any excpectional move (15 cent in approx. 6 months), but Draghi should be forced to speak about the issue. “At today’s press conference ECB president Mario Draghi will probably only refer to the on-going improvement of the situation in the euro zone with reference to the debate surrounding the alleged euro strength”, wrote analyst Lutz Karpowitz, pointing also to the falling target balances interest rates on borrowings for companies in the different countries that have increasingly converged recently.

Forex Flash: AUD in the doldrums after rough week – Westpac

The AUD has had a rough week – retail sales posted back to back declines in Nov and December, against expectations for at least a statistical bounce. Moreover, the AUD also emerged weaker after the January labor force data today, as the 10K jobs gain hid a -10K fall in full time employment while the steady 5.4% unemployment rate was aided by the participation rate falling to 65.0%, a new low since November 2006. Finally, “Tuesday’s RBA statement did the AUD no favors either as the steady hand at 3.0% was as we and most forecasters expected, with market pricing also above 80%.” writes Sean Callow, a Global FX Strategist at Westpac.

With Central Heating Cover you can have peace of mind against the cost of any unexpected repairs

The last thing you want is for your central heating system to stop working during the winter, so it’s important to be prepared in case of emergencies – which is where central heating cover comes into play. Most policies not only promise a quick fix when your system breaks down but they also cover the cost of unexpected repairs so that you can avoid expensive bills.

What is Central Heating Cover?

Central heating cover is an insurance policy that covers the cost of a certified engineer to come out and fix any issues with your boiler and main central heating system, as well as things such as your pipes and radiators. It usually also covers the cost of damaged or worn out parts. Most cover plans include the complete heating system, and some allow for add-ons such as an annual boiler service or protection against other home essentials. What is included in your cover really depends on which provider and plan you choose, so we suggest you always look at the different options available so that you can compare policies.

Who Needs Central Heating Cover?

Central heating cover policies are designed to give homeowners peace of mind that any problems with their heating system will be resolved swiftly and they won’t be left with an expensive repair bill in the event of a breakdown. If you’re a homeowner and you have a home contents insurance policy, it’s wise to check your existing plan carefully as some policies include central heating cover as standard.

When it comes to rental properties, it’s up to the landlord to take out central heating cover if they wish. So, if you live in a rental flat or house, you may find that your landlord has a central heating cover policy to protect your home against heating problems.

Key Considerations When Buying Central Heating Cover

There are many factors to consider when purchasing central heating cover, particularly since policies vary greatly from one provider to another. While some don’t, certain plans limit the number of call-outs or claims you can make in a year. Others include a call-out fee that you have to pay every time an engineer comes to your home to fix any problems. There are also plans that charge an excess if you make a claim.

One of the most important considerations when selecting a central heating cover policy is what the plan actually includes. If you want to insure your central heating system, avoid boiler-only cover plans as these will only cover your boiler and its controls. Another thing to take into account is that there are some providers that have policies which will cover more than just your central heating and include fixing issues with things like your electrics, drainage and plumbing as well.

No matter the level of cover you choose, it makes sense to get a central heating plan that includes an annual boiler service. This way, you won’t have to pay for one separately and a qualified engineer can ensure any issues that may arise are detected and dealt with sooner rather than later. Many cover packages give you access to 24/7 emergency call-outs, so it might be worth making sure you pick a company offering a plan that allows for this too.

The decision on whether you should get central heating cover is completely up to you. It isn’t an essential insurance and is always a bit of a gamble because you may never have to make a claim. Some homeowners choose to set aside money each month to cover any potential repairs, whereas others prefer to get cover and not have the worry of finding a lump sum of cash quickly. But by having the right level of cover, you won’t have to wait long for an engineer to come to your home to get your central heating system back up and running.

Always Compare Central Heating Cover

When you put in the effort and compare all your options, you stand more chance of finding a central heating cover policy that best suits your requirements. By shopping around, you can also compare fees and potentially save money. And if you have a home insurance policy that doesn’t automatically cover your central heating system, be sure to contact your provider to see whether you can include it as an extra as you may find they offer you a much better deal.

Awards Eligibility 2018

It’s awards season, y’all, and that means the annual eligibility posts are out and about.

I’m thrilled to look back on this last year of my professional life; I taught my first classes for adults, heard LeVar Burton read my short story to a packed live audience, hosted another successful Art & Words Show, and published five works of short fiction.

Here’s the two that I’m holding up for your awards consideration:

“The Crow Knight”Beneath Ceaseless Skies (October 2018)

Synopsis: When an invincible black crow whose presence causes emotional and physical pain haunts the Lady Loreen, her knight and best friend Ser Wynn goes beyond the kingdom to find the only weapon that can destroy it.

Short Story

“The Men Who Come From Flowers”–F&SF (September 2018)

Synopsis: Susan raises a garden of boy flowers who will one day become men; when she rescues an injured flower and takes the man as her lover, she is forced to choose between the man’s love or his life.

My Year in Stories 2017

Hey all! Nebula nominations have opened and award eligibility posts have started showing up on my timelines.

I had a great year writing-wise. My favorite story that was published in 2017 is my Phantom of the Opera retelling, which takes place in a high school and features a female phantom, a young outcast who lives beneath the high school stage and develops a taste for trickery and music. This one is eligible in short story categories.

For Hugo consideration, I offer “Party Tricks” for the Graphic Story category. This one’s a strange case, but here’s the situation: I won Wattpadd/Syfy’s #BattletheBeast contest with my 1,500-word story set in the world of their Syfy’s The Magicians. They made the story into an illustrated digital short, which debuted on their website in five parts, narrated by the actor who plays Eliot, Hale Appleman. The stills were drawn by artist Miss Tak. Here’s a story in the Dallas Morning News about the contest, if you’re interested in more info.

If you’re interested in reading more of my work from 2017, check out the stories below!

Award Eligibility 2016

It’s that time of year again, when people like me rush to catch up on all the fiction we’ve missed throughout the year in order to nominate them for various awards including the Nebula, the Hugo, the World Fantasy, the Tiptree, etc. Lots of great stories this year. I’d be honored if you’d consider one of mine.

Thus, the annual Awards Eligibility Post. There’s just one work I present for consideration for the year 2016:

In the Novelette Category

The Orangery (December 2016 | 8,700 words | Beneath Ceaseless Skies)

Eligible for Hugo, Nebula, World Fantasy, etc.

In several myths, women turn into trees to escape unwanted sexual advance. I combined three of these stories to tell my own story, an exploration of the cruel treatment of women in mythology.

The Orangery is a haven for these women-turned-trees, watched over by the Guardian. When Apollo breaks into the Orangery looking for Daphne, the Guardian must fight him–and make sacrifices in the process.

This one’s received some great reviews, with the following nice things being said about it:

Other People’s Work

Or: this is not an exhaustive list of everything I have loved this year, and I am still catching up on so much reading!, but here are some places you might start with if you are like me and working through All the Fictions

All the Birds in the Sky | Charlie Jane Anders | Tor | Novel

Anders combines sci-fi and fantasy to create a clever story of witches, AI, and apocalypse.

Summerlong | Peter S. Beagle | Tachyon | Novel

Well, we’ve established that I love retold myths, so Beagle’s retelling of the Persephone story is right up my alley.

A Fierce and Subtle Poison | Samantha Mabry | Algonquin | Norton YA

Beautiful magical realist YA novel about a boy who falls for a teenage girl rumored to be poisonous to the touch.

Sooner or Later Everything Falls into The Sea | Sarah Pinsker | Lightspeed | Novelette

I love Pinsker’s stories about musicians’ lives after the dissolution of society. This novelette is one of my favorites from the year.

Every Heart a Doorway | Seanan McGuire | | Novella

This one explores what happens to children who, like Alice or the Pevensie kids from Chronicles of Narnia, have visited other worlds but are now not allowed to return; they’re sent to a home where they try to heal (and some try to go back any way they can).

This is Not a Wardrobe Door | A. Merc Rustad | Fireside | Short Story

I’ve been shirking on my short story reading this year, but this was one of the stories I read and loved, which, like the above, plays with portal fantasy tropes in a brilliant way.

Bogi Takács | Bogi Reads the World | Fan Writer

Love Takács’ reviews of works from marginalized authors and was excited to see their reviews given their very own space here.

Sarah Gailey | Women of Harry Potter | | Fan Writer

Gailey’s series about the oft-underappreciated women in the Harry Potter world are brilliant–and part of my inspiration for re-watching the movies and re-reading the books.

Awards Eligibility 2015

First, this post is late. I meant to write it sooner–I usually love reflecting back over the past year–but a death in my family slowed my writing to a terrible crawl. I’ve been avoiding much that I meant to do. But an email from Sunil Patel, an editor of Mothership Zeta, with whom I published a 2015 story, spurred me to go ahead with it. After all, late is better than never.

Writing-wise, 2015 was a good year. My biggest news: I signed with agent Ann Collette for my first novel. I also published 19 original stories, 5 reprints, and one essay for Lightspeed’s Queers Destroy Science Fiction! special issue.

I’m going to highlight the originals, all of which are eligible for Best Short Story. One of these stories, “Everything Beneath You,” is on the longlist for the British Science Fiction Association Awards; another Beneath Ceaseless Skies story, “A Careful Fire,” is on the SFWA Recommended Reading List. My humorous sex ghost story “Sleeping with Spirits” (see what I did there?) is on the Tangent Recommended Reading List.

Mr Eternity: The Story of Arthur Stace

Author(s): Roy Williams; Elizabeth Meyers

Almost every day for 35 years, Arthur Stace spent hours writing a single word - Eternity - on and around the streets of Sydney. Sometimes his mission took him much further afield, to country New South Wales and even to Melbourne.
Stace's identity was a mystery for more than two decades. Then, after his 'unmasking' in 1956, he became a reluctant folk hero. By the time he died, in 1967, his was a household name and the word Eternity was ingrained in the soul of Sydney. It still is.
In this long-awaited biography, the full story of Arthur Stace's life is told for the first time in vivid and often surprising detail. Drawing upon many original sources, some never before made public, this book will engross Christians and non-believers alike - anyone who loves a great Australian story.

Product Information

Roy Williams won the Sydney University Medal in law in 1986 and spent 20 years in the legal profession before turning his hand to writing. His first and best-known book, 'God, Actually' (2008), was a defence of Christianity for the educated layperson. A bestseller in Australia on release, it has since been published in Britain and North America. Roy's next two books - 'In God They Trust?' (2013) and 'Post-God Nation?' (2015) - focused on Australian history and society, and have been widely praised by believers and agnostics alike. Mr Eternity is his first full-length biography. Elizabeth Meyers' father, Lisle Thompson, was the minister of Burton Street Baptist Tabernacle in Darlinghurst from 1951 to 1964 and also a dear friend and mentor of Arthur Stace. Elizabeth worked as a teacher for 26 years after attending Sydney Unversity and qualifying in early childhood/special education. She and her husband Lionel have two daughters and four grandchildren. Elizabeth has written this biography of Arthur Stace with Roy Williams to fulfil a promise to her mother, May, as Lisle Thompson received permission from Arthur to write his life story `only after his death.'

10 Things For Teen Girls

Format: Paperback

Vendor: B&H Publishing Group

Publication Date: August 01, 2014

ISBN: 1433682915

ISBN-13: 9781433682919

Number of Pages: 208

Dimensions: 8.5 × 5.5 (inches)

Usually leaves warehouse in 1-2 business days. The delivery date of your order depends on when the order leaves our warehouse, the destination address for the item, and the shipping method. Please keep in mind that business days are Monday thru Friday, excluding federal holidays within Canada.

The world is run by teen girls: parents of teen girls, teachers of teen girls, boys trying to date teen girls, feminists who want to empower teen girls, companies trying to sell things to teen girls, and people who have had it “up to here” with teen girls.   Chances are if you’re reading this, there is a young woman in your life for whom you desire the very best, and 10 Things for Teen Girls can help with that.
Based on student minister Kate Conner’s runaway blog post, this book answers a lot of important questions: Why should I follow my heart? Should I care what other people think of me? Why are boys only interested in my body? How do I handle my emotions? Am I beautiful? Am I enough?
Teen girls have already heard the typical shtick about how they need to dress modestly, or how they shouldn’t care what others think of them, but it doesn’t suffice. Rooted in biblical wisdom and interspersed with candid stories of the modern teenage experience, Conner’s imparts common (and all too uncommon) sense.

Author Info

Kate Elizabeth Conner is a 27-year-old writer, speaker, and first generation southerner who spends her days learning braille, counseling teenagers via text message, and adjusting to life in middle Georgia. She is married to a college pastor and has three impossibly beautiful children who only make her crazy 97% of the time. Kate authors a self-titled blog, which received more than three million views in two years, due in part to her viral post, 10 Things I Want To Tell Teenage Girls. Kate writes about surviving parenthood, teenagers, and her twenties with her faith and sense of humor intact. She believes in music, coffee, and prose – and in all the world, nothing has taken hold of her like Christ.

Away to Mars, maybe – Love, Ish, by Karen Rivers (book review)

book cover of Love, Ish,  by Karen Rivers, published by Workman | recommended on BooksYALove.comPreparations for Mars mission – ongoing.
Hoping for rain – always.
Missing her best friend – must cut that memory off. Entirely.

Everything was easier before Tig moved away! Now Ish has to cope with a brain tumor and seventh grade without him…

Find this March 2017 release at your local library or favorite independent bookstore to see how Ish’s applications to the Mars Now program are received.

When your best friend moves away, what next?

Book info: Love, Ish / Karen Rivers. Algonquin Young Readers, 2017. [author site]  [publisher site]  Review copy and cover image courtesy of the publisher.

My book talk: Certain that she will someday be selected for a Mars mission, 12 year old Ish lists everything that she’ll miss about Earth, like former best friend Tig and the island on their drying-up California lake, and what she won’t miss, like how Tig never calls from Oregon and the cancer that started hurting her brain and how her sister hates her.

No denying that starting seventh grade is terrible without Tig here, or that Ish was surely adopted with cute older sister Elliott because they were a package deal.

No good reason that Mars Now has rejected Mischa Love’s application 47 times, or that new friend Gavriel can’t be a girl if he wants to be.

A brain tumor the size of a brussels sprout – not Ish’s favorite vegetable.
Radiation treatments – Ish doesn’t like her red hair, but she doesn’t like it falling out either.
Dreams of Mars, all the dreams – never let them stop!

Maybe it will finally rain here in Lake Ochoa again, and maybe Ish can squash that tumor, and maybe she can get to Mars with Tig…

Important Note:The email system built in to Brilliant Directories is meant for emailing already existing members of your site updates, newsletters, and other information that they may have requested.

Sending mass unsolicited emails to the Claim Listings or other list of contacts on your site would be considered SPAM and would likely result in ISPs blacklisting your website"s future emails, potentially blocking other websites on the server, and is illegal in the locations our servers are located in.

If you are interested in sending out a mass unsolicited email campaign, we would recommend using a 3rd party service that specializes in this kind of activity like jangosmtp.com.

How to set up an Email Campaign

  1. Login to the Admin area of your site

  2. Navigate to Emails >> Email Campaigns

  3. Click on the “New Email Campaign” button

  4. Set the “Campaign Status” field to “Ready”

  5. Enter a name for this campaign into the “Email Nickname:” field

  6. Select an email template from the “Email Template:” dropdown

  7. Set the time you wish the email campaign to begin in the “Send Time:” fields

  8. Select the total number of emails you wish to send in this campaign in the “Total Emails to Send:” field (we recommend sending batches of no more than 100 at a time, especially if you have not had previous contact with the people you are sending emails to)

  9. Under the “Select Lists to Email” area, click on the checkbox next to the Contact List(s) and/or Member List(s) you wish to send the email to

  10. Click on the “Save Email Campaign” button and then your email campaign will be scheduled to be sent out

  11. To check on the status of the campaign, navigate to Emails >> Email Campaigns to see a list of all current and past email campaigns you have sent out

Notes About The Email Campaign Options:

Total Emails to SendThis is a setting to regulate the number of emails to send at once. For example, if you wanted to send out emails to only 100 members of a certain contact list, you would enter 100 in this field, and then select the contact list to send to. If you want to send an email to an entire contact list, then you would put the number of contacts in that list into this field so they will all receive an email.

Delivery FrequencyPause Campaign after this batch will mark this campaign as being "Paused" after the number of emails set in the "Total Emails to Send" field has been reached and will not continue sending out any more. If you select "Continue campaign...", then the email campaign will pause after the first batch is sent out and then resume a short time later. It will continue to do this until all of the emails have been sent out.TIP: If you have scheduled an email campaign and it is not being sent, navigate to the Email Campaigns page (Emails >> Email Campaigns) and click on the "Send Now" button for the campaign to send it immediately.

Email Results Categories

A deferral occurs when an ISP is for some reason not ready to accept email from your IP address. Instead of blocking or bouncing the message, the ISP will defer receiving the message and wait for the email to be resent. An ISP may do this because it does not recognize the IP from which a message originates; or it could just be that their system is operating in such a way that they cannot accept the email at that specific time. If, upon your resending, the ISP determines that it is ready to trust you as a sender or their system operations are back to normal, the email will be accepted as normal. The software will retry delivery of a deferred email on behalf of our customers for 72 hours from the time of the first deferral.

In certain cases, the software will “Drop” a message to a specific email address in order to protect your sender reputation. The software keeps Email Lists to track bounces, spam reports, and unsubscribes for each of our users. If a user sends a message to an email address that exists on one of these lists within their account, the software will automatically drop the message (i.e., not send to the address).

Median Finding Algorithm for Joint Databases

This content was COPIED from BrainMass.com - View the original, and get the already-completed solution here!

You are interested in analyzing some hard to obtain data from two separate databases. Each database contains n numerical values - so there are 2n values total- and you may assume that no two values are the same. You'd like to determine the median of this set of 2n values, which we will define here to be the nth smallest value.

However, the only way you can access these values is through queries to the databases. In a single query you can specify a value k to one of the two databases and the chose database will return the k-th smallest value that it contains.
Since queries are expensive you would like to compute the median using as few queries as possible. Give an algorithm that fins the median value using at most O(logn) queries.
