  • In 2010, Northern Trailer constructed close to 420,000 square feet of high quality modular buildings within our Kamloops facilities. In addition to our combined 200,000 square foot manufacturing facilities, Northern Trailer has more than 50 acres of secure storage yards within Kamloops and other locations in BC. We are able to provide safe storage of completed buildings prior to transporting them to their installation destination
    • Mandy Atwal
       
      Logos: "In 2010" represents the factual information 2 yeara ago about how the company "constructed close to 420,000 square feet of high quality modular buildings....". Appeals to the readers because they are provided with facts that are pretty impressive.

Muscle Hack - Home of Muscle Growth - 2 views

shared by Elias Rumley on 03 Dec 10 - Cached
    • Elias Rumley
       
      The website is complete with a navigational tool bar at the top of the page, very helpful for keeping track of where you'd like to be in the website.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Another navigational standard just beneath the navigational tool bar is the search bar. Quick and easy to find information pertaining to a specific topic.
  • Home of Muscle Growth
    • Elias Rumley
       
      MuscleHack has two main slogans, the highlighted one being "Home of Muscle Growth" and the one in the logo being "Mor Muscle, Less Fat, Less Time." Mark McManus, the blogger who maintains MuscleHack, makes it clear right away that this is a website dedicated to shedding off as much fat and putting on as much muscle in as little time as possible.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      These slogans also suggest (and this can be verified by reading a few blog posts) that Mark very firmly believes that his information contained in this blog is the best (and possibly only) way to safely put on muscle quickly.
  • Muscle growth, which is sometimes called  ‘muscle hypertrophy‘, is what this site is all about. Yes there are thousands of different training systems out there, but this one is designed SPECIFICALLY to make your muscles larger – PERIOD!
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Note the first three paragraphs. "... MuscleHack, the home of muscle growth." "If you want to learn how to build muscle fast, MuscleHack is THE place to be." "... this [training program] is designed SPECIFICALLY to make your muscles larger - PERIOD!" Immediately, the blogger uses repetition (in conjunction with the slogans) to get it clear that this website is entirely about muscle gain, no questions asked.

    • Elias Rumley
       
      To give the option to bloggers to keep informed and up-to-date on any new blog posts or pieces of information, there is an option to subscribe to an RSS feed.
  • I will NEVER sell out. I will NEVER recommend a product I don’t personally believe in. I will NEVER share your email address with ANYONE. I will NEVER try to sell you something you don’t need. I WILL keep the vast majority of everything I do FREE of charge.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      This section was preceded by the heading "Mark's promise to you". This entire bulleted list is an example of Ethos, where Mark is trying to prove that all the information provided on the blog is genuine, and that there is no scam or illegitimacy in being involved with this blog.
  • Want FREE help and advice?
    • Elias Rumley
       
      A search over the website shows that the term "free" appears 9 times on this page. Apparently Mark wants to be very clear that there is no risk in following his blog, as everything here is free. In a sense, it's Logo. This blog is free, and as proven earlier, will not scam you or abuse your information; therefore, you should have no reason to not follow this blog.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      For Mark to still turn a profit on this blog, he has some blatant advertisements through Amazon.com posted on the blog. While he probably recommends all these products, this is also his source of income.
  • The Muscle Hacker is Mark McManus, a 29 year old Certified Fitness Instructor committed to helping others build the body of their dreams. Mark is a naturally skinny guy who overcame the hardgainer's curse through years of research and personal experience. Whether you want to build new slabs of muscle or drop your body fat percentage to reveal chiseled abs, Mark CAN make it happen for you.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Mark uses Ethos by claiming he is a Certified Fitness Instructor, who was a "hardgainer" (ie, a skinny or slim male who has difficulty in developing muscle) who overcame this barrier; therefore, he must have the credentials to help you gain muscle also.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Mark also uses Pathos, by stating his commitment to helping others build the body of their dreams and making your fitness goals happen for you. The suggestion is that Mark wants to help you become fit.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Near the top of the page, you have an opportunity to "grap a copy of Mark's FREE book". I have personally looked into this myself, and what it doesn't tell you is that this is that you end up the mailing list by asking for this book. While it is very easy to withdraw from the mailing list, it is a clever trick to get you to come back to this website at least once to remove yourself from the list. Mark may realize that one return to his website could be enough to keep you coming back for more out of curiosity, something he as a blogger wants out of readers.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      The website is riddled with pictures of muscular men. This is an appeal to men who want to have that physical appearance. The pictures are an attempt to subconsciously plant the (inaccurate) logic of "If I read this blog, I will look like these men" in the minds of certain readers.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Another side note about these pictures - most of them are actually of Mark, trying to convince the reader that this blogger has seen results with his own information, and so must have some sort of credibility (Ethos).
    • Elias Rumley
       
      To provide an outlet for users to passively advertise MuscleHack, users have the option to like MuscleHack on Facebook. The ideology behind this is that this act of liking MuscleHack will result in a post in Facebook's news feed, resulting in the possibility of Mark receiving a new reader from a curious Facebooker.
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Mark also provides other means to share MuscleHack. Ultimately, to obtain new readers.
  • MuscleHack is the genuine article (unlike most other sites out there). You CAN have your dream body, and it would be my privilege to coach you to success!
    • Elias Rumley
       
      In the concluding line of the "front-matter" to this website, Mark makes one more stab at using Ethos and Pathos. MuscleHack is genuine (Ethos), and Mark would be pleased to help you reach your dream body (Pathos).
    • Elias Rumley
       
      It's not a major thing, but it is still worth noticing that Mark generously uses font formatting to his advantage in his writing. Headings and sub-headings have different size and style of font. Points which call for extra attention in the body writing are written in red to draw in readers.
  • Donate To MuscleHack
    • Elias Rumley
       
      Mark either wants or needs money in order to keep MuscleHack online, so whatever finances he can't get from his own work or advertising, he needs to get from other sources, and donations from readers are an excellent thing to try.
  • Get Your Body Fat Percentage
    • Elias Rumley
       
      I find it interesting how the homepage has a cool little applet like a body-fat-calculator on the sit of the page. I am willing to bet that this is put there in order to boost the amount of hits for this page. Somebody can suggest to their friend, "Check out Musclehack.com, there's this body fat calculator on the homepage that you may find useful!" Mark is hoping that these readers who stopped by for the litlle gizmo may stay as permanent blog followers.

Northern Trailer :: trailers for sale, prefab buildings, portable office, site accommod... - 0 views

  • Northern Trailer's experience, efficiency, size and history of solid performance are significant competitive advantages. There are few businesses in Western Canada who have the expertise and in-house capability to provide the full suite of services required for large-scale accommodation projects. Northern Trailer is able to fully manufacture, supply, install, and operate a facility of limitless size without needing to sub-contract. This diversity of our operations makes us a one-stop shop for our clients. It also gives us a strong ability to control costs and provide quality assurance on our transportation, installation, and operations. We are able to handle any concerns in-house, without the involvement of third parties.

EBSCOhost: Footprints in the Digital Age - 0 views

  • A recent National School Boards Association survey (2007) announced that upward of 80 percent of young people who are online are networking and that 70 percent of them are regularly discussing education-related topics.
  • these shifts demand that we move our concept of learning from a "supply-push" model of "building up an inventory of knowledge in the students' heads" (p. 30) to a "demand-pull" approach that requires students to own their learning processes and pursue learning, based on their needs of the moment, in social and possibly global communities of practice.
  • Last December, in an effort to honor the memory of her grandfather who had died the year before, Laura decided to do one good deed each day in the run-up to Christmas. She decided, with her mother's approval, to share her work with the world.Laura's blog, "Twenty-Five Days to Make a Difference" (http://twentyfivedays.wordpress.com), quickly caught the eye of some other philanthropic bloggers.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Laura is not just publishing, and others are not just reading. Now when she wants ideas for charities to work for as her project enters its 11th month, Laura says, "I ask my readers" (Richardson, 2008).
  • In addition, under her mother's guidance and care, Laura is learning online network literacies firsthand. As Stanford researcher Danah Boyd (2007) points out, we are discovering the potentials and pitfalls of this new public space. What we say today in our blogs and videos will persist long into the future and not simply end up in the paper recycling bin when we clean out our desks at the end of the year. What we say is copyable; others can take it, use it, or change it with ease, making our ability to edit content and comprehend the ethical use of the content we read even more crucial. The things we create are searchable to an extent never before imagined and will be viewed by all sorts of audiences, both intended and unintended.
  • These new realities demand that we prepare students to be educated, sophisticated owners of online spaces. Although Laura is able to connect, does she understand, as researcher Stephen Downes (2005) suggests, that her network must be diverse, that she must actively seek dissenting voices who might push her thinking in ways that the "echo chamber" of kindred thinkers might not? Is she doing the work of finding new voices to include in the conversation? Is she able to make astute decisions about the people with whom she interacts, keeping herself safe from those who might mean her harm? Is she learning balance in her use of technology, or is she falling into the common pattern of spending hours at the keyboard, losing herself in the network? This 10-year-old probably still needs to learn many of these things, and she needs the guidance of teachers and adults who know them in their own practice.
  • More than ever before, students have the potential to own their own learning — and we have to help them seize that potential. We must help them learn how to identify their passions; build connections to others who share those passions; and communicate, collaborate, and work collectively with these networks.

    • Brandon Del Debbio
       
      This picture with all the bikes being used and everyone seems to be enjoying themselves while working out appeals to pathos. Maybe even ethos since they do look like they are in shape and gives creditbility.
  • Delivering community-specific programs and services designed to enhance and empower lives has been the mission of the Kamloops Community YMCA-YWCA for nearly four decades. Our story is about people from every background working together to make a positive difference in the quality of life for themselves and others. Their unselfish commitment to the health and well-being of the community they share has had a tremendous impact with far-reaching benefits. We trace our roots back to the early sixties, when a small group of concerned women met together in the basement of a boy’s club to form a Y neighborhood group. Familiar with the work of the Y they began to organize programs and services eventually leading to the chartering of the YWCA of Kamloops in 1965. Ten years later, the focus and the scope of programs and services were broadened when members voted to join the YMCA movement and the Kamloops Community YMCA-YWCA was formed. In the near thirty years since then, our Y has built a proud legacy of uninterrupted community service sparing no effort to keep pace with changes that have come with time. The same spirit of commitment and dedication upon which our association was founded still fuels our determination to build toward a healthier tomorrow. We look back with pride at all that has been accomplished since our humble start and it inspires us to look forward with a renewed sense of commitment to what we must yet achieve.

How To Reduce Stress With Slow Breathing With Music - 1 views

  • The connection between our breathing and our emotions has been known since the earliest days of our ancestors. So have the links between our respiratory, circulatory and nervous systems.

      No, ethos would be an appeal to the credibility of the author.
  • Our response to music is universal. And relaxing to music is by no means just a matter of mood and "feel-good-factor". Recent research shows that external rhythms - such as music - do influence internal rhythms.

  • In its role as a neurotransmitter in the brain it relays our thoughts and feelings such as joy, sadness, pain... and stress! It repairs our cells and fights infection and tumours to help us live longer and healthier... It can increase blood flow by up to 200%, which has numerous health benefits. Not least among them, it allows men to produce erections and heightens sexual stimulation for both sexes. The principle action of Viagra, by the way, is to raise nitric oxide levels... Increasing blood flow also improves the circulatory system by keeping blood vessels clear of plaque and other harmful build-up... Nitric oxide plays a major role in maintaining healthy blood pressure by signalling blood vessels to expand!

Teaching in Social and Technological Networks « Connectivism - 0 views

  • Technological networks have transformed prominent businesses sectors: music, television, financial, manufacturing. Social networks, driven by technological networks, have similarly transformed communication, news, and personal interactions. Education sits at the social/technological nexus of change – primed for dramatic transformative change. In recent posts, I’ve argued for needed systemic innovation. I’d like focus more specifically on how teaching is impacted by social and technological networks.
  • social and technological networks subvert the classroom-based role of the teacher. Networks thin classroom walls. Experts are no longer “out there” or “over there”. Skype brings anyone, from anywhere, into a classroom. Students are not confined to interacting with only the ideas of a researcher or theorist. Instead, a student can interact directly with researchers through Twitter, blogs, Facebook, and listservs. The largely unitary voice of the traditional teacher is fragmented by the limitless conversation opportunities available in networks. When learners have control of the tools of conversation, they also control the conversations in which they choose to engage.
  • Course content is similarly fragmented. The textbook is now augmented with YouTube videos, online articles, simulations, Second Life builds, virtual museums, Diigo content trails, StumpleUpon reflections, and so on.
  • ...14 more annotations...
  • Thoughts, ideas, or messages that the teacher amplifies will generally have a greater probability of being seen by course participants.
  • The following are roles teacher play in networked learning environments: 1. Amplifying 2. Curating 3. Wayfinding and socially-driven sensemaking 4. Aggregating 5. Filtering 6. Modelling 7. Persistent presence
  • Views of teaching, of learner roles, of literacies, of expertise, of control, and of pedagogy are knotted together. Untying one requires untying the entire model.
  • Fortunately, the experience of wayfinding is now augmented by social systems.
  • I found my way through personal trial and error. Today’s social web is no different – we find our way through active exploration. Designers can aid the wayfinding process through consistency of design and functionality across various tools, but ultimately, it is the responsibility of the individual to click/fail/recoup and continue.
  • The curator, in a learning context, arranges key elements of a subject in such a manner that learners will “bump into” them throughout the course. Instead of explicitly stating “you must know this”, the curator includes critical course concepts in her dialogue with learners, her comments on blog posts, her in-class discussions, and in her personal reflections.
  • Sensemaking in complex environments is a social process.
  • Perhaps we need to spend more time in information abundant environments before we turn to aggregation as a means of making sense of the landscape.
  • magine a course where the fragmented conversations and content are analyzed (monitored) through a similar service. Instead of creating a structure of the course in advance of the students starting (the current model), course structure emerges through numerous fragmented interactions. “Intelligence” is applied after the content and interactions start, not before.
  • Aggregation should do the same – reveal the content and conversation structure of the course as it unfolds, rather than defining it in advance.
  • Filtering resources is an important educator role, but as noted already, effective filtering can be done through a combination of wayfinding, social sensemaking, and aggregation. But expertise still matters. Educators often have years or decades of experience in a field. As such, they are familiar with many of the concepts, pitfalls, confusions, and distractions that learners are likely to encounter.
  • To teach is to model and to demonstrate. To learn is to practice and to reflect.”
  • Apprenticeship learning models are among the most effective in attending to the full breadth of learning.
  • Without an online identity, you can’t connect with others – to know and be known. I don’t think I’m overstating the importance of have a presence in order to participate in networks. To teach well in networks – to weave a narrative of coherence with learners – requires a point of presence. As a course progresses, the teacher provides summary comments, synthesizes discussions, provides critical perspectives, and directs learners to resources they may not have encountered before.
  •  
    Here are some additional thoughts that relate to my teaching approach in courses.

Over a barrel | Managing | Strategy | Canadian Business Online - 0 views

  • Boasting reserves (174-billion barrels) second only in size to Saudi Arabia, the tarsands have placed Canada in the remarkable position of holding nearly 60% of the investable oil reserves in the world. This explains why Imperial, ExxonMobil, Shell, Total and other energy multinationals have committed nearly $100 billion in a feverish rush to build as many as 51 projects in the sands over the next decade. Not surprisingly, stocks in 10 major firms with key tarsand investments gained a whopping 370% in value between July 2003 and April 2006. "In the big picture, deepwater oil and the oilsands are the only game left in town," says CIBC chief economist Jeffrey Rubin.
