...of the analysis back to the research question. 6. End notes (if any). 7. References cited in the paper. By me Abstract: Here’s a one paragraph abstract summarizing my main argument and findings Introduction This is my research question / puzzle. This is why my research paper is interesting and important, and why your life won’t be complete until you thoroughly read this paper. Here is a brief sketch of how the paper is structured. Literature review This is what other people have written about this topic, and about other topics that are relevant. I’m going to make sure that I treat these researchers with respect, and that I present their work in the fairest light that I can. But I’m also going to tell you where I think they got it wrong or missed something important. Certainly I’m going to say why they can’t answer the research question or puzzle that I posed at the start. If they really can answer the research question adequately, then my paper is a bit redundant. Theory There is some sort of problem with the existing literature. Maybe the scholars got something wrong; maybe they forgot to consider something important; maybe their theories have been overtaken by events. Here is my new theory that explains everything that their old theories could explain, and is also able to answer my research question. I’m going to make sure that I outline my theory clearly and in a way that is empirically testable – that is, it...

...December 2013 Present as a noun has two meanings. A present is a gift. The present is the time we are experiencing at this very moment. When you tell people to live in the present you want them to deal with current events and not be too concerned about the past or planning for the future. Examples: Don't worry if your former boyfriend cheated on you. Live in the present and find another person to love! Johnny was keen to save money to buy a house. His friends told him to live in the present and go on a holiday with them. * One in the eye 19 December 2013 If you say something is one in the eye for someone, it means that something is a big disappointment or a defeat for them - but you are pleased about their disappointment. Examples: I got the job! That's one in the eye for John – I've never liked him and I was sure he would get the position. Ha! Our winning the championship was one in the eye for our rival team – they are always boasting about their skills. * Get your skates on! 17 December 2013 If you tell someone to get your skates on it means that you want them to do something quickly or to hurry up. Examples: You'd better get your skates on, or we are going to miss the bus! Get your skates on! We've got a lot of work to do today. * To tower over 12 December 2013 To tower over someone or something means to be much taller than that person or thing. Examples: Joan towers over her husband when she wears her...

...The present continuous The present continuous is used to talk about present situations which we see as short-term or temporary. We use the present simple to talk about present situations which we see as long-term or permanent. In these examples, the action is taking place at the time of speaking. • It's raining. • Who is Kate talking to on the phone? • Look, somebody is trying to steal that man's wallet. • I'm not looking. My eyes are closed tightly. In these examples, the action is true at the present time but we don't think it will be true in the long term. • I'm looking for a new apartment. • He's thinking about leaving his job. • They're considering making an appeal against the judgment. • Are you getting enough sleep? In these examples, the action is at a definite point in the future and it has already been arranged. • I'm meeting her at 6.30. • They aren't arriving until Tuesday. • We are having a special dinner at a top restaurant for all the senior managers. • Isn't he coming to the dinner?

...Never mind that there are spaces marked "Visitor." No, Bill's got to park in the space with my title on it. Bill likes to make subtle statements. So, okay, he's the division vice-president, and I'm just a mere plant manager. I guess he can park his damn Mercedes wherever he wants. I put my Buick next to it (in the space marked "Controller"). A glance at the license as I walk around it assures me it has to be Bill's car because the plate says "NUMBER 1." And, as we all know, that's absolutely correct in terms of who Bill always looks out for. He wants his shot at CEO. But so do I. Too bad that I may never get the chance now. Anyway, I'm walking up to the office doors. Already the adrenalin is pumping. I'm wondering what the hell Bill is doing here. I've lost any hope of getting any work done this morning. I usually go in early to catch up on all the stuff I'm too busy to do during the day, because I can really get a lot done before the phone rings and the meetings start, before the fires break out. But not today. "Mr. Rogo!" I hear someone calling. I stop as four people come bursting out of a door on the side of the plant. I see Dempsey, the shift supervisor; Martinez, the union steward; some hourly guy; and a machining center foreman named Ray. And they're all talking at the same time. Dempsey is telling me we've got a problem. Martinez is shouting about how there is going to be a walkout. The hourly guy is saying something about harassment. Ray is yelling that we can't finish some...

...15 Toughest Interview Questions and Answers! Reference: WomenCo. Lifestyle Digest, updates@m.womenco.com 1. Why do you want to work in this industry? Bad answer: “I love to shop. Even as a kid, I spent hours flipping through catalogues.” Don’t just say you like it. Anyone can do that. Focus instead on your history with that particular industry, and if you can, tell a success story. Good answer: “I’ve always loved shopping, but my interest in retail marketing really started when I worked at a neighborhood boutique. I knew our clothes were amazing, but that we weren’t marketing them properly. So I worked with management to come up with a marketing strategy that increased our sales by 25% in a year. It was great to be able to contribute positively to an industry I feel so passionate about, and to help promote a product I really believed in.” 2. Tell us about yourself. Bad answer: “I graduated four years ago from the University of Michigan, with a Bachelor’s in Biology – but I decided that wasn’t the right path for me. So I switched gears and got my first job, working in sales for a startup. Then I went on to work in marketing for a law firm. After that, I took a few months off to travel. Finally, I came back and worked in marketing again. And now, here I am, looking for a more challenging marketing role.” Instead of giving a chronological work history, focus on your strengths and how they pertain to the role. If possible, illustrate with examples. Good answer:...

...listen to you more than to God, you judge. 20 oFor we cannot but speak the things which pwe have seen and heard.” You judge for yourselves whether it’s right in God’s sight to obey you rather than God, but we can’t help speaking about what we have seen and what we have heard. For the time that we have to share today, I want to talk on the subject Can I get a Witness? Can I get a witness? It is obvious from your response, that from the announcement of that statement, that you have heard that question before. If you have been in church for about 3 and half days you probably have had that question raised before in some worship experience. For without doubt preachers across the country stand in pulpits over and over again, time and time again and ask this question in the midst of their proclamation and presentation, Can I get a witness? It is when that interrogative is raised that the proclaimer is wondering if the congregation to whom he or she is speaking is in tune and in touch with the message that is being conveyed. Every now and then if the congregation seems to get a little too quiet in church, if they seem a little too disconnected from the message, the messenger would pause parenthetically and ask the question can I get a witness. It is when that question is raised that someone is supposed to affirm and attest the truth of God’s word. And you do know that we belong to the call and response tradition, that when something true is said up here, something ought to be...

Just send them a link to this page right here: http://socialtriggers.com/exclusive/free5000subscribers/ Now let’s dive in... 1 I’ve got a quick question for you... If you’re looking to attract your first 5,000 subscribers, my first question I have for you is this: Does any of the following sound familiar? “I’ve worked myself ragged creating content, and nothing is happening. It’s like I’m working for free.” “I’ve tried posting to my blog multiple times per week, commenting on other blogs, guest posting, and pretty much everything. None of it is working.” “I’ve got no idea how to even get started with attracting subscribers. I write a lot of blog posts, but the traffic is just trickling in.” If you said “Yes,” to any of the above, block out 15 minutes and read this entire free ebook. Because it’s not your fault. Here’s the truth: Much of the “common sense” wisdom that “experts” share about building a readership is, at best, flawed and, at worst, flat out wrong. As an example, has anyone ever told you that “the secret to building a blog readership is by regularly updating your blog with engaging content each week?” That couldn’t be MORE WRONG. I’ve already debunked this myth on several occasions. You can read more about it on my blog. The real secret is about 80% promotion / 20 % creation. Read about it here. You see, many of these “experts” who...

...I’ve kept this for so long… was too bashful then. Now lost times haunt me big time (yet bashful still). I’m not expecting a reply for this, no more. I mean, first of all, you hardly know me and I’m not even sure if you still remember me. I just don’t wanna deprive you of the due compliment. The fact that I’ve sent this, it already paid it all actually. The sentiment, the time, and the other ones indescribable, they were given justice at the instant. And so I thank you. As I’ve mentioned in the letter, I hope this serves a thing of inspiration to you (well, at the most). My only prayer is that this crap will hopefully make you more feel good about yourself; even for just a little or even for a single second perhaps. There’s really nothing much I can do now to return the favor back but this. You seem to have all things by far. Ako naman, I got everything to offer that is when pigs fly. I should have given this during the Joy Luck Club time. The original letter is preserved since then, except for the month stuff… you’ll see. A little look back from those times will probably help you understand some jargon. Ooh by the way, if you’re wondering, I got your account from the people search engine via the UP site… and definitely with some help from a friend named Marnie. Hope you don’t mind. Ei just to clarify, I’m no stalker here. Needed to say that, you might be freaked out. Ding! Another offense. Did some net surfing just lately and also found out curly long...
