How to Compose Informed Argument for Your Research Paper - 0 views

  •  
    Informed argument is one of the most important features of academic writing. When you start writing your academic paper, first thing you naturally think of is what your subject will be and what you know on the subject. You should be aware that different writing assignments require different level of your knowledge on the topic.

YouTube - CORPORATE THEFT - THE ORPHAN WORKS BILL - 0 views

  •  
    Where I first heard about this, and it sounds like something worth worrying about, if this person is telling the truth. It's alleged to be pro-piracy legislation, stripping copyright protection from any work not registered with a commercial registry. The defenses I've heard of this bill can be summed up by the words "yes, but they meant well". Not very reassuring. Let's look into this.

Let the Words Flow - FictionPress.com - 0 views

  •  
    A site on which one can publish one's fiction. The social networking aspect of the site seems to be limited to the posting of reviews. Having not yet registered an account on this site, I don't know whether or not one can screen the reviews of one's stories. As each story page seems to link to a page of reviews of the story appearing on that page, if the answer to this question is "no", then what one would have, in effect, would be a guestbook that one couldn't moderate, with all of the possibilities for abuse that creates. I don't know that's the case, but I also don't know that's not the case, so I'll set up that account in a few days and learn more. I just didn't want somebody blindly stumbling into trouble, thinking that I had checked out something that I hadn't, yet.

Day To Day Functioning With A Brain Injury - 0 views

  •  
    I had a brain injury as a child and I want to let others know that have had brain injuries, that they aren't alone. I also want to let them know that what they are experiencing is normal for this condition. It's not something that they should feel bad about. With persistence and determination, you can overcome whatever obstacles stand in your way.The reason that I know this is because I went from being a small child in a coma, clinging onto life; to a mature human being making a difference in humanity. If I can do it, anybody can do it.I've always made a point to move forward and not look back on the past as a crutch. If you do the best you can, with what you have, where you are; then, there isn't a person on this planet who can ask anything more of you. The point of all this is, that it's a learning experience. The end result of learning is always growth in some direction.

Depression: How It's Robbing You of Your Past, Present, and Future - Associated Content... - 0 views

  •  
    Depression I've been depressed since I was eight-years-old, I'm 39 years old now. When I was depressed I would think about how bad things are and just expect them to get worse. A lot of the time I would think about suicide and how nice it would be to die and be done with everything having to do with life.

US Orphan Works Act of 2008 / Capwiz.com - 0 views

  •  
    Action site of person who posted video on Youtube of the same, alleging that copyright protection was about to be shredded for those whose works did not appear in commercial registries. There is some talk about the impact this will have on artists. What I don't see, and would like to, is the text of the bill, itself, and some supporting links. Much of this, we're asked to take on faith, which is a troublesome thing in a setting like the Internet, where we are all forced to deal with strangers. If the author is telling the truth, I hope he'll work on fixing these deficiencies in his site..

    Said to be a copy of said bill. I haven't yet confirmed this by checking the loc.gov site which, regrettably, seems to rely on the use of temporary pages for legislation, judging from the url I saw when I went there looking for this bill.

    I want to be able to invent a super-hero and share it with others. Then, maybe you can invent one too. If we put our minds together, who knows what we can come up with? Just imagine a new generation of super-heroes with new and improved powers. You could even design the clothes that your super hero will wear. If you can imagine the possibilities of what some new super heros could do; then, we can create them and all of humanity will benefit. Let's save the world.

The Value of Patience - Associated Content - associatedcontent.com - 0 views

  •  
    We've all heard the cliche, good things come to those who wait. And in some ways it rings true. We are born into a world in which we wait for a lot of things and how we spend our time waiting is often the determinant of whether we are successful or not in whatever the endeavor may be.

Listening to your intuition can change your life forever - 0 views

  •  
    When going with your intuition, you are going with nothing more than a thought or a feeling. People call these hunches and a lot of times they will be right. If they are really good at it, they can have it guide them throughout their life; no matter what the situation. I have a theory about intuition and that is that it can protect you and guide you throughout your life. And so far, so good.
