This website gives you all the news in the five town area of Addison County. This is helpful when writing papers about local events, and news. It is also helpful in just informing you about your community.

This was a very useful video for me at the beginning of my independent study, it shows in detail how to center and throw a pot, which can be very difficult and is what I spend most of my time doing. The woman in the video also gives good instruction and help me a great deal.

This video was very helpful, it talked in very good detail and step by step from start to finish.

From the start, you get to pick what you want to explore about from different health topics. From learning how to manage arthritis, keeping active, watching your weight, to seeing your doctor, or protecting your joints as you age, this website has tons of ways and other sites that can help protect your body!

This website is great if you want to find a good book to read. The site lets you select the genres that you like so that you can browse popular books that fall under those genres. Also, if you don't know what books to read, then you can look for books based off of a book that you have read and liked in the past. I used this website during the second semester in my composition class because one of the requirements for this class was that you always had to have an independent reading book. So, I would frequently browse this website if I was stuck and need recommendations.

This article talks about how Snowden is facing a life on the run since he was denied asylum in Russia and the White House rejected clemency. He doesn't have many options left.

I thought the juxtaposition with CIA leaker Agee was interesting. I was under the impression Snowden was going to work in Russia. Good to have the follow up. Do you think he should be given clemency?

This website is a writing lab, and can answer almost any question you have about grammar and citing your sources. It is not an automatic bibliography-maker, but it provides examples and steps for how to make your own. I think this is a very helpful source. I know it is reliable because it is through a college, and it was recommended to me through a teacher. I recommend this source more strongly than easybib because by doing the work yourself you will remember how to do it in the future, and the action of writing your bibliography cements why giving sources credit is important. I find this source to be helpful all through the writing process, as I cite in-text sources, struggle with grammar, and make a works cited page at the end. It has helped me feel more confident and independent while proofreading because I get a second opinion without asking the teacher.

This site is a very reliable and thorough source that explains everything you need to know about MLA formatting.
