Tammie Jo Shults: On What Makes a Hero

On April 17, 2018, Capt. Tammie Jo Shults headed to LaGuardia Airport in New York to pilot Southwest Airlines Flight 1380, bound for Dallas. That flight, as it turned out, wouldn't be routine.
The plane had only been in the air for 20 minutes and had reached an altitude of 32,500 feet when it was rocked by an explosion. Shults would describe it later, "like a Mack truck hit the side of my aircraft."
The plane shook violently, rolled, and started to dive toward the ground.
Data shows that the plane lost 2,700 feet in the first minute, 4,300 feet in the second minute—it was descending faster than the normal rate of 2,500 feet per minute, though it was nowhere near a free fall. Within five minutes, they dropped 18,000 feet.
Shults and her first officer Darren Ellisor found themselves facing not one type of emergency, but several at once.
A turbine fan blade had broken in the left engine, creating an explosion, so the plane was now running on a single engine; in addition, shrapnel had cut hydraulic and fuel lines and broken a window at row 14, causing sudden decompression inside the plane.
It all hit at once: the roar of the plane traveling at 500 miles per hour, the piercing ear pain, the feeling of being unable to breathe, debris flying around in the cabin. Through it all, the plane continued to shudder violently.
The first few minutes proved critical. Shults and Ellisor regained some control of the aircraft with delicate maneuvering. Shults explained that guiding a plane with a single engine and a punctured cabin was like "driving on black ice." You couldn't force the plane to go your way, you had to work with it. Every time they tried to turn the plane left, it felt like the plane wanted to roll onto its left side.
Upon Ellisor's suggestion, the pilots decided to head to the Philadelphia airport, which had long runways, and they were familiar with it.
The fate of Flight 1380 was a fortunate one. Though it was reported in the news, Shults has written a new book, "Nerves of Steel: How I Followed My Dreams, Earned My Wings, and Faced My Greatest Challenge," released in December 2019. It gives insight not only into that day, but into the events in her life that, in a way, prepared her to play her role and save the lives of so many.
Touching Down
Flight 1380 touched down at the Philadelphia airport 20 minutes after the explosion. There were 144 passengers, and five crew. All but one passenger survived—a woman seated by the window at row 14.
Shults wasn't immediately identified by Southwest—but she was hailed a hero. On social media, gratitude poured in: "The pilot, Tammy Jo was so amazing! She landed us safely in Philly. God sent his angels to watch over us. I actually heard someone say, there is a God!!" wrote one passenger on Instagram.
On the ground, the EMT who would take Shults's pulse and do an EKG—as standard procedure required—was amazed: She didn't even have an elevated heart rate.
Before her career at Southwest, Shults was a naval aviator—one of the first women in the U.S. Navy who got to fly an F/A-18 Hornet.
Many attributed her "nerves of steel" to the training she got in the military. There's that, of course, but according to Shults, there's much more to it.
Shults wrote: "I believe my calm voice and pulse rate that day were the product of more than my training and demeanor. They didn't magically appear in a sudden moment of need. They'd developed over the years, nurtured through each life experience by my faith and confidence in God's goodness."
The day of that fateful flight, Shults started the day as she did any other day—with her Bible and a cup of tea.
Even in the last moments of the descent, as she was piecing together how to get the plane to do a final right turn when it wouldn't, she was talking to God.
Looking back on the day, Shults noted that when Philadelphia was announced as the destination, it didn't change a thing about the circumstances, but it gave everyone hope—a powerful gift.
"Hope is the glue that holds us together when facts and circumstances could easily tear us apart," she wrote.
When she was young, Shults grew up on a ranch in New Mexico next to the White Sands Missile Range and Holloman Air Force Base, and she would watch military jets dogfighting in the sky. Her dream was to fly, but she would face many obstacles along the way, whether in the U.S. Navy or in her early days at Southwest. Many would try to smear her reputation, throw her under the bus, and make it clear she was unwelcome.
Despite all this, she never adopted a victim mentality. She knew that life would hold hardships and that there were individuals who wished her ill, but it wasn't that whole organizations were against her.
When the going got tough, her mother would always tell her, "Tomorrow morning, the sun will rise and the birds will sing."
Once, while having a difficult time with an instructor, she told herself, "My worth was determined by my Maker, not my instructor."
Despite her encounters with difficult people, she also met kind and caring individuals. And so Shults advocates focusing not on the villains but on the heroes.
"Heroes do not require a title or equipment. They don't need to land a crippled plane. A hero is someone who takes the time to see and makes the effort to act on behalf of someone else. In a word, they care," she wrote.
After Shults landed the plane, she made it a point to walk through the cabin and make eye contact with everyone. She took the time to check on the children, including a baby girl who had fallen asleep.
The loss of the passenger in row 14 weighed heavily on her. But at the same time, she was incredibly touched by the display of heroism all around her—from her first officer, the flight attendants, the first responders, the ground team, to the passengers.
When she stepped into the cabin, what she found was not a crowd of anxious, terrified passengers but people who were calm and composed. They had looked out for each other, and some had taken great risks to help one another.
"These people didn't suddenly become compassionate or courageous. They had a history—they had a longstanding habit of loving others and acting unselfishly," she wrote.
One thing is certain: It takes a hero to know one.

Texas Republicans show mix of enthusiasm and reticence toward Trump's run for president – The Texas Tribune
Sign up for The Brief, our daily newsletter that keeps readers up to speed on the most essential Texas news.
Texas Republicans, who have been some of Donald Trump's most vocal supporters, had mixed reactions to the former president's announcement that he will once again run for the White House in 2024 — reflecting a national mood of GOP apprehension toward Trump and the search for a potential other candidate to seek the nomination.
Die-hard supporters like Attorney General Ken Paxton and Agricultural Commissioner Sid Miller were quick to tout enthusiastic support for Trump as the 2024 Republican presidential nominee.
But the state's two U.S. senators, Republicans John Cornyn and Ted Cruz, have signaled an openness to other GOP candidates, and Gov. Greg Abbott and other state officials, who were endorsed by Trump in their own elections, have yet to make a statement about Trump's third bid for president.
Former Gov. Rick Perry, who served as Trump's energy secretary from 2017 to 2019, did not immediately endorse Trump and said the GOP was early in the process of finding its nominee.
"For me personally, it's kind of like, show me what you got," Perry told The Texas Tribune on Wednesday. "Whether it's Donald Trump, whether it's [Florida Gov. Ron] DeSantis, whether it's somebody that we haven't seen yet."
"I know how the process works, I respect the process and may the best person win," he added.
Matt Rinaldi, chair of the Texas GOP, said he was also waiting to see what other candidates jump into the race.
"Contested primaries are a good thing," he said. "Whoever wins the nomination will be a strong conservative and will take the party forward in 2024 in the right direction."
Rinaldi said he has not closed the door to supporting Trump but has also been supportive of DeSantis.
"Ron DeSantis and his optimistic brand of bold and unapologetic conservatism is a winning brand and the GOP should take note," he wrote on Twitter after DeSantis' massive win in Florida on Election Day.
DeSantis is seen as a major potential opponent to Trump in the 2024 GOP primary, after a strong showing on Election Day where he defeated his Democratic opponent by 20 points on a night that Republicans nationwide underperformed.
Mike Pence, Trump's vice president, has not closed the door to challenging his former running mate. Cruz is also seen as a potential presidential candidate, however, he's declined to answer questions about how Trump's announcement affects his aspirations.
A poll commissioned by the Republican Party of Texas this week showed that more Texas Republicans prefer DeSantis over Trump as their 2024 presidential nominee, which is a flip from their preferences in an October poll.
Trump has long been considered an easy front-runner for the nomination, but Republican apprehension has grown after the poor performance of Trump-aligned candidates in this month's midterm elections. Some Republicans think the party could have won Senate seats and more governors if the party had run more traditional GOP candidates over Trump allies, who pushed election denialism, which turned off many voters.
Trump, who is the only president in history to be impeached twice, is also bogged down by his no-holds-barred, divisive style of politics, and his ties to the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol by supporters who refused to believe Trump had lost the election.
Paxton, one of Trump's staunchest allies, left no ambiguity about who he would be supporting on social media Wednesday morning. Trump supported Paxton in a competitive four-way GOP primary for attorney general this year.
"Donald J. Trump's efforts to secure our borders, project strength across the globe, expand economic opportunity, & protect our freedoms put our nation back on track," Paxton said. "I am proud to endorse his campaign for President so that he can once again put America First & heal our nation."
Miller, who was also endorsed by Trump and was one of the first Texas officials to support Trump's 2016 presidential run, also remained supportive.
"I was the first elected official to endorse him. I think I endorsed him last January," Miller said Wednesday morning in a phone interview. "I was in before he was."
Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, who chaired both of Trump's Texas campaigns, also praised Trump on Tuesday night but his statement was not a clear endorsement.
"President Trump is the candidate the Democrats fear the most in 2024. If you heard his speech tonight, you know why. It was one of the best he has ever given," Patrick said. "After two more years of President Biden and the leftist policies of the Democrats, Americans will be ready for America to be Great Again."
A Patrick spokesperson did not immediately respond to a request for clarification, but Patrick has expressed clear support for Trump in the past, introducing him at a Conroe rally in January as the "45th and soon-to-be 47th president of the United States."
U.S. Rep. Troy Nehls, R-Richmond, was among Texas' first Congress members to endorse Trump on Tuesday night from Mar-a-Lago, where he witnessed the announcement in person.
"My friend Donald J. Trump has my complete and total endorsement for president in 2024," the Richmond Republican said on Twitter.
U.S. Rep. Ronny Jackson, R-Amarillo, who served as Trump's doctor in the White House, was emphatic in his support.
"I WILL BE VOTING FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP IN 2024!!!!!!" he tweeted.
U.S. Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-San Antonio, said he "look[ed] forward to President Trump once again righting the ship" and U.S. Rep.-elect Wesley Hunt of Houston said he "look[ed] forward to enthusiastically supporting Donald Trump's bid for the White House."
Still, there was a notable lack of enthusiasm from Abbott and other statewide officials, including Land Commissioner George P. Bush, who heavily sought out Trump's endorsement during his failed challenge to Paxton for the attorney general's office. House Speaker Dade Phelan, who Trump attacked for not pushing forward an election audit bill during the 2021 legislative session, has also remained quiet. None immediately returned requests for comment.
Even some of Trump's staunchest supporters noted the unease around his announcement. Miller said Trump has had some recent drops in polling support and took some tough losses by his endorsed candidates in the midterm elections.
But he said Trump had plenty of time to recover and anticipated he'd have an easier route to the GOP nomination than in 2016.
"It's like they say in billiards. There's a lot of green between here and the pocket," Miller said. "He's still in good shape. The polls switched on him for a bit but he'll be back."

Since its birth in the 1940s, the baseball cap has yo-yoed its way in and out of the closets of the fashion conscious. If the last time you wore a baseball cap was because Fred Durst was doing it, get ready to start rollin' into a new era of fashion, with the new generation of hats hitting the high street.
These days it's women starting the trend, with ladies sporting caps that could easily belong to boyfriends. The singer Rhianna, for example, was recently spotted stepping out in a two-tone baseball cap, teamed with Timberland-style boots, casual slouch jeans and jumper - the ultimate in casual living.
Out on the sand in the Florida sunshine, Gwen Stefani was papped wearing a black baseball hat to complete a beach style outfit, featuring a jungle print bikini, baggy vest and floral sarong.
But perhaps the most interesting trend of late summer is the combination of feminine dresses and tomboy-style headwear. Model Dree Hemingway was spotted at the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic, sporting a fresh and healthy look, in a long-sleeved white lace maxi dress and New York Yankees cap.
Hats are a trend that summer's unlikely to put a stop to, with retailers stocking their shelves with an array cap styles from snapback and fitted to five panel caps as well as woollen hats to keep you warm this winter.
Fitted caps are the item of choice for most fashionistas - they come in a range of sizes but can't be adjusted by the plastic snaps on the back. You'll find adjustable hats in the snapback cap category. Then there are five panel caps, with their smaller peaks and horizontal panel across the front. This style has been growing in popularity over the last few seasons, largely inspired by the cycle scene. Five panel caps offer a spectrum of block colour designs and innovative patterns, from brands such as Huf, Obey and Size?
Amongst the snapback and fitted cap ranges, you'll find hats supporting a range of sports teams from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Chicago Bulls. But if these teams mean nothing to you, the best bet is to go with the colours that complement your outfit.
For those of you who don't want to use your head to support American baseball or basketball teams, tiki and camo prints are bang on trend too. More Fresh Prince than Fred Durst, these caps brighten up any outfit - and hark back to another hat-wearing heyday.
As the winter sets in, try trading in your caps for the ever-popular beanie. This style of hat isn't just for men; it's ideal for both finishing an autumn/winter outfit and shielding yourself against the cold. Whatever your style, don't step foot outside without the appropriate headwear in 2012/2013.

So, it's come to my attention that there are pirate sites out in cyberspace that have listings for my books. Which is kind of sad. It shows disrespect for the authors and how much work is put into a novel or novella. Loads of hours and sometimes years of work, stolen.
But many of these sites brag to be a PDF download site, or other retailer. Some are blatant pirate sites listing the book far much higher in price than what I sell it for on the legitimate retailer sites. They are hard to stop, since many are in foreign countries without any US jurisdiction. Not to mention the phishing sites that just have my books listed and offer free downloads of a PDF. Just don't try to download it. Most likely it is a file full of viruses. In fact, most of the listings I've found are most likely this type of scam.
There is a third party retailer that is called Kiss Library (on purpose, did not include link) that has many of my books uploaded by a pirate/scammer. I did not put them there, and I'm still investigating if this is a real website. They have a DCMC tab, which means they know they have a pirating problem. But I'm not giving them any of my information. They list all of my information, from publishing name to my website and social media, to look legitimate. IF they make it that easy for people to steal work, than I'm not going to recommend ANYONE use their site. I've been burned by third party retailers (IE All Romance Ebooks), and just have stopped selling with them.
So, really, just buy from legitimate retailers. Most Indie authors have their books listed with them. However, I am on listing services to make it easier to find books. But these services have legitimate buy links listed with the books, and will steer you to proper retailers. Examples of these are Indie Book Lounge and Romance IO. There are also places like Thrift Books or PaperBackBookSwap, which sell used books or swap them. I've found my books on there, but they are just people selling books they bought. Which is fine. Love people reading my books and sharing them!
The legitimate book sellers with my books are Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble.com, Kobo.com, Smashwords.com, iTunes and Google Play. You shouldn't need to go to any other selling platform. I do have giveaways from time to time, but they have been through Instafreebie or through KU giveaways. I let everyone know about these in blog posts and through my newsletter. So, there are MANY ways to get legitimate copies of my work and enjoy them. I even have a full novel on Wattpad right now.
So, really, just stay away from these bogus phishing sites. Maybe a lot of you already do, but I just didn't want any of my readers getting burned because you were just trying to find my book and get a deal. Just sign up for my newsletter or blog, and I have monthly deals with multiple authors that I send out and other deals on my back catalog too.


In the approach of these staggering numbers, what are governmental agencies and private campaigns pretend to educate American drivers about drunk driving? This article will pay for a survey of the most widely-publicized anti-impaired driving campaigns, and an analysis of their real-world effects.
In the last few years, weve seen numerous ad campaigns, initiated both by state-funded organizations and private concentration groups, advocating for widespread tribute of something called buzzed driving. suitably what is it?
Buzzed driving is a enormously easy concept. After ingestion, alcohol is absorbed suddenly by the bloodstream and common tests, as soon as a breathalyzer, can accomplish the amount of alcohol in your blood reliably and quickly. Driving once a Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) of 0.08 or highly developed is illegal in all state. At that concentration, drivers in the region of invariably experience sedation and slower reaction times. In extra words, its straightforwardly dangerous to drive past that much alcohol in your system.
And significant studies have found that less is no better. One version from UC San Diego that evaluated crash reports found that buzzed drivers, those with a BAC of 0.01 percent are 46 percent more likely to be officially and solely to blame than temperate drivers. The fact is that driving even slightly buzzed is dangerous, far away more dangerous than driving sober.
The real problem is that American behave and public policy tend to look upon 0.08% as a definitive, meaningful boundary. below that lineage and youre relatively safe, above it youre dangerous. But the researchers at UC San Diego found that the chances of causing a wreck increases steadily and well from BAC 0.01 to 0.24 percent, meaning that there is no hasty transition following comparing a buzzed driver to a drunk driver. It turns out that 0.08% is not a definitive boundary, and that no amount of alcohol is safe in the resolution analysis.
The report from UC San Diego was published in the British medical journal slur Prevention. You can admittance a summary here.
The Ad Council, Americas largest non-profit producer of public service announcements, spearheaded the Buzzed Driving preparedness campaign. upon their website, they bill that their ads reached nearly one half of all American adults beyond the age of 21. And that there was a significant layer in the proportion of men age 21 35 who called themselves extremely concerned practically the event of drunk driving, from 22 percent in 2005 to 27 percent in 2011.
And though public awareness is very important, Americas legislators have nevertheless to respond to our supplementary bargain of buzzed driving. In fact, later most declare governments take in hand to zero tolerance, they either limit this prohibition to drivers under 21 or point conveniently that they wont tolerate any driver in the manner of a BAC higher than 0.08%.
Only get older will tell whether or not allow in governments follow through on the current research. back in 2013, the National Transportation Safety Board recommended lowering Americas authentic limit to 0.05%, but no own up has yet to refer this stricter limit.
Another reply has been to contextualize drunk driving, to define it in terms of another tragic condition. As the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) states: drunk driving is often a symptom of a larger problem: alcohol foul language and abuse. The underlying premise to this advocate is that some drunk drivers function vehicles while impaired because (in in view of that many words) they cant urge on it. And if you acquire substance dependent persons treatment, you might admit some impaired drivers off the road in the thesame gesture.
Also telling is that the NHTSA refers to impaired driving, rather than drunk driving. In extraction in imitation of recent developments in addiction studies, the NHTSA has adopted the scientific convention that finds more checking account than contrast between alcohol abuse and drug addiction in general.
This line of reasoning seems bolstered by statistical evidence. In a psychiatry released by the National Institute on Drug Abuse, researchers found that almost half of all drivers who were killed in crashes and tested certain for drugs also had alcohol in their system. In many cases, then, the burden is mixed. And the solution might be, too.

Law firm rates have increased since onset of pandemic
By Jerome Doraisamy|05 January 2021
New research reveals that, despite the economic downturn caused by the age of coronavirus, the rates that legal departments are being charged have either remained steady or gone up rather than declining.
Blickstein Group has released its 13th Annual Law Department Operations Survey, which details the impact that COVID-19 has had on legal ops, together with the extent to which LDO professionals are seen as trusted and mature workers within a business.
"No one could have seen COVID-19 coming, of course," said Blickstein Group principal and publisher of the Annual Law Department Operations Survey Brad Blickstein.
"But, LDO professionals were able to anticipate in 2019 that change was coming. With that foresight and the ability to adapt once the pandemic hit, the fallout has not been nearly as bad as we thought it would have been. Law departments have been able to meet the needs of their clients."
The research did, however, denote a "major shift" in the financial impacts upon businesses compared to the global financial crisis of 2008.
"At that time, rates stayed flat and even were reduced in many instances before rebounding after a few years. But that doesn't seem to be the case this year," Blickstein Group wrote.
When asked how their law firms' rates have changed over the past year – that is, looking back to pre-pandemic times – nearly one in five (17.9 per cent) of LDO professionals said firm rates have increased by more than 5 per cent. Over half (51.8 per cent) said that rates have gone up less than 5 per cent in that time.
Just over one-quarter (26.8 per cent) said rates have remained flat, while just 3.6 per cent of professionals said rates had decreased in the past year.
The outlook for 2021 isn't promising for LDO professionals, either.
Just 9 per cent expect that rates will go down, and slightly under half (44.6 per cent) think they will remain flat. On the other end of the spectrum, 37.5 per cent of LDO professionals think that rates will increase by less than 5 per cent in the coming year, and 8.9 per cent are anticipating rate hikes of more than 5 per cent.
However, there were also slight increases in the volume of law firms offering discounts on their bills, the research found.
This past year, 96 per cent of LDO professionals said that their law firms discounted their hourly bills, slightly up from 91 per cent of firms last year. Overall, 61 per cent of LDO professionals and their businesses are getting discounts on more than half of their bills from firms, up from 56 per cent last year.
But, as Blickstein Group noted, these discounts do not amount to a "pandemic-sized" increase on the cuts offered by firms in 2019, meaning that – when taken together with the above findings pertaining to rate increases, the financial hit suffered in this time has been vastly different to that suffered 12 years ago.

I literally played this like 30 times before I decided to share this with you guys. I love this song! It's called "Try Sleeping with a Broken Heart" by Alicia Keys. I am going to add this to the soundtrack of my life, so enjoy!
OMG! I love this song too! The minute I heard it I knew it was going to be POPPIN! =) I think she should have released this as the first single.

Thank you for this letter, Dr. Tez. In our multivariable model, use of an appendix bag was an independent predictor of decreased intra-abdominal abscess with an odds ratio of 0.6. This correlates to a 40% reduced odds of intra-abdominal abscess in the group without use of an appendix bag. The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program variable "preoperative sepsis" is defined as the presence of systematic inflammatory response syndrome, sepsis, or septic shock.1 The variable "preoperative sepsis" used in our analysis includes these in a collapsed binary variable.
Reply: Does retrieval bag use during laparoscopic appendectomy reduce postoperative infection?
Thank you for your letter, Dr. Childers and Dr. Maggard-Gibbons. The National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) appendectomy procedure-targeted database was first released in 2016. NSQIP uses medical chart review to determine whether a specimen bag was used before appendix removal.1 As pointed out by the authors and presented in their own institutional NSQIP data, it is possible that appendix bags are not documented in all cases but logged in other parts of the electronic medical record, thus leading to measurement error.

TSSA To Ballot Cross Country On Industrial Action Over Pay
TSSA is set to ballot members at Cross Country Trains (a subsidiary of Arriva) in a dispute over pay - raising the prospect of strike action in the run up to Christmas.
Cross Country managers are angry that they have been given no indication of when or whether they will receive a pay increase this year, which was due back in May.
This anger has been exacerbated by the decision of the company to implement a 3 per cent pay deal for other staff, agreed with other trade unions.
Since Arriva was awarded the Cross Country franchise in 2007, managers have received the same percentage increase that is applied to the rest of the staff. However, Cross Country tried to impose a much lower percentage increase on managers two years ago and were forced to back down when TSSA manager members voted for strike action.
Once again, Cross Country seem intent on treating managers less favourably. The company has repeatedly failed to give TSSA assurances that the pay increase applied to other staff will be applied to managers.
TSSA General Secretary, Manuel Cortes, said: "Cross Country are refusing to engage with our union over this issue, the patience of our members has run out, and we are now formally in dispute and will shortly ballot our members.
"This raises the serious prospect of strikes across the country in the run up to Christmas.
"The managers that TSSA represents include controllers and other staff vital to the company's operations. Strike action will see massive disruption to Cross Country train services at a time when there are likely to be disputes and disruption in other train operators, especially in the Midlands. No one wants to see this, especially during the festive season.
"However, the ball is firmly in Cross Country's court. As they did two years ago, the company can end this dispute at a stroke by giving us the written assurances on managers' pay that we seek.
"It is very disappointing that less than two years since our manager members voted overwhelmingly for strike action which forced the company into a humiliating climb down, Cross Country again seeks to test our members' resolve to obtain a fair pay increase.
"I have every confidence that the result will be the same this time around."
TSSA Represents over 150 key managers at Cross Country, many of whom are controllers and other specialists critical to the company's operations. Strike action would mean most Cross Country services would be cancelled.
Cross Country operations are centred on Birmingham and radiate across the country running to Aberdeen via Derby, Sheffield, Leeds and York, to Penzance via Bristol, Exeter and Plymouth, to Southampton via Oxford, Reading and Basingstoke, to Stansted Airport via Cambridge, and to Cardiff via Gloucester.

This course will review the basic mathematical skills that are a prerequisite for a meaningful understanding of elementary statistics, data analysis, and social science methodology. The primary purpose of this course is remind graduate students in the social sciences about a set of core knowledge in mathematics and statistics. It is meant to prepare first or second year graduate students for courses in quantitative methods. Course content includes a discussion of mathematical notation, basic set theory, the algebra of numbers, the notion of a function, and the study of important functions. This will be followed by a discussion of limits and continuity, differential and integral calculus, and a review of matrix algebra. The final lectures will review some basic probabilistic and statistical concepts.
This course is meant as a review/refresher/reinforcer for those who previously have been exposed to this material, and is not meant to be an introductory course in any of these topics. It is expected that students without previous exposure to these ideas will take classes from the Department of Mathematics rather than use this class as the first expose to the material.
Overall, this course should enhance the learning of students in their quantitative courses by providing them with a recent exposure to the baseline level of mathematical knowledge required in quantitative courses in the social sciences, and courses in the Department of Statistics and the CSSS in particular. By ensuring students taking subsequent quantitative classes have a core set of skills the later classes can focus at a more sophisticated conceptual level.
There will be a once per week integrated lecture on three areas: mathematics, probability and statistics. About two-thirds of the course will be on mathematics.

This Halloween I have been loving black and white or cream color schemes. I was inspired many Pinterest images of black and white decorations Luckily, I had already decided to make a black Williams-Sonoma Inspired Crow Wreath, a cream Happy Halloween banner, a Pottery Barn Kids Inspired Bat Chandelier, and a black Pottery Barn Inspired Trick or Treat Banner. I wanted a black pumpkin to add to the décor and found an incredible Halloween pumpkin luminary at Pottery Barn. It is painted black and a little rough looking…. just my style. Unfortunately the $89 price was not my style at all!
I read the description and saw that it was made from paper-mache! I'd love an excuse to get out the newsprint, flour and water… but I knew there was a much neater and quicker way to get the same look. Many craft stores carry carvable fake pumpkins at this time of year. They even come in black! Add some vinyl stickers or paint on a design with acrylic paint and you have a great knock off!
I've made a printable pattern you can use to make your very own "BOO" letter shapes. I'm also including a cut file, in case you own a Silhouette cutter. As a bonus, I'm also including instructions and patterns for a mini "Eek" and "Hiss" pumpkin.
1, Decide if you are making vinyl stickers or painting the pumpkin.
You can trace your stencils onto contact paper by hand and then cut them out by hand.
You can use a Silhouette machine to cut the vinyl for you.
You can run contact paper through your printer (here's an easy tutorial).
3. Place your stencils securely on the pumpkin (press down well, you can see my centers were a bit messy), paint your design using cream acrylic paint and a small brush to stencil your design. Work from the edge of the stencil inward to prevent the paint from being forced under your stencil. Again, this is a bit messy since the surface is not flat, work carefully. Let the paint dry for a few minutes and remove your stencils. I use a toothpick and a q-tip to clean up any smudges on the outsides of the letters. Allow the paint to dry for several hours or over night.
4. Use a sharp kitchen knife to carve the insides of the letters. Start with a small cut and slowly enlarge the opening.
5. Paint the inside of the opening (inside edge of the letters) with cream paint, if desired. You can also cut a hole in the bottom of the pumpkin to add an LED light or fake candle. I did not and have been using a glow stick or battery operated tea light that fits through the "O". You can not use a real candle!
6. Enjoy your pumpkin! It is very light so secure it if you are going to display it outside or it will blow away.
1. Spray paint the pumpkins black and allow to dry overnight.
2. Proceed with step 2 of the luminary instructions above. Do not carve the mini pumpkin.
This pumpkin luminary added the perfect touch to my Halloween mantle. The best part? I didn't have to part with $89.00 to add it to my Halloween collection!
Contact paper (if used as stencil, any color; if used to make stickers, use white or cream) – $1.00 – ?
That's a $67.66 savings (76% off). You can make a whole bunch of pumpkins at that price!
I LOVE the savings even more than my new pumpkin patch!
I hope you try making a Pottery Barn Inspired Black BOO Pumpkin Luminary or one of my other knock-off decorations this Halloween!

Full Employment and Decent Work for All: Where are the Youth?
Home > Learn More > Full Employment and Decent Work for All: Where are the Youth?
Miller was able to offer her perspective regarding the benefits of micro-finance programs for unemployed and underemployed youth, as well as valuable information regarding CCF's life-skills building programs.
Miller emphasized the need for youth specific programs such as early parenthood and HIV/AIDS. "Micro-finance and self-employment in the informal sector offer an opportunity that is appropriate in post-conflict and other challenging environments where formal employment opportunities are limited," Miller said.
Miller says there is often a mismatch between the skill sets of youth and the skills needed by businesses in the formal sector. As a means to bridge that gap, Miller highlighted the importance of pairing vocational skills training with broader life-skills, such as resource management, communication, confidence building and decision making.
The U.N. asked CCF to participate in this panel because of the successes CCF has had in micro-enterprise development programming in the developing world.
The event was part of the Commission for Social Development which had as its theme, "Full Employment and Decent Work for All." The interactive panel discussion was sponsored by the U.N. Department of Economic and Social Affairs' Programme on Youth.
On Feb. 7, Mirellise Vazquez, CCF's Partnership Development Officer, moderated a workshop for the NGO Committee for Social Development on Models of Effective Practices of Employment. The workshop took place during the U.N. Commission for Social Development events.
The discussion focused on the results of a survey which aimed to identify employment-related programs that succeed in reducing poverty.
The survey was completed by 50 projects in 37 countries. CCF staff accounted for 28 percent of the survey responses from 18 countries, and included communities involved in employment-related programs, such as the reintegration of child soldiers, youth vocational training and empowering women to participate in financial services.
The overall findings of the survey identified three elements of particular importance to the success of employment-related programs: multi-level collaboration, communication and sustainability.
CCF India's employment programs are examples of successful programs that contain these elements. CCF India forms self-help groups of women who are involved in beneficiary selection, funds disbursal and repayment of loans. These women's groups collaborate with government officials and banks. Micro-finance programs for parents and youth, and vocational skills programs provide families with the means to create sustainable livelihoods.
As an active participant of the NGO Committee for Social Development, CCF demonstrated its leadership and commitment to improving the livelihoods of families and the well-being of children.

Several pro-Trump states would be injured by a trade war
by David Ascienzo, opinion contributor - 04/12/18 1:15 PM ET
As the U.S. and China dance around tariff threats, at times fueling market fears of an impending trade war, the big question is which American exporters will be hurt the most.
Export data from the U.S. Census reveals how much certain industries in each state stand to lose, which I highlight in my report for consumer research group ValuePenguin. China's tariffs already target the leading U.S. exports to China, including civilian aircrafts, engines and parts, motor cars and vehicles and soybeans.
{mosads}For export businesses in states such as Washington, California, Texas, Louisiana and South Carolina, the impact from a trade war with China could be dire. Collectively, they provide 51 percent of the total value of U.S. commodities exported to China.
For instance, Washington exports last year accounted for 14.19 percent of the total value of U.S. commodities exported to China, ranking first among all states at $18.28 billion. The state's top three exports included $10.43 billion in civilian aircraft, engines and parts; $3.72 billion in soybeans; and $932 million in cars.
Although the state trades with other countries, its largest export market is China. Two-in-five jobs in the state are tied to international trade, according to the Washington Council on International Trade. A trade war with China would likely affect many of those jobs.
In a worst-case scenario, The Peterson Institute for International Economics estimated that potential job losses in California could total 640,000 if the U.S. imposed a 45-percent tariff on China and a 35-percent tariff on Mexico and those countries responded similarly.
We're far from that level of trade tension, but California exporters will still feel the pinch if China makes good on its tariff threats.
Last year, California provided 12.75 percent of the total value of U.S. commodities exported to China, ranking second in the nation at $16.43 billion. The state's top exports included $2.67 billion in electric cars; $1.15 billion in machines and parts for manufacturing semiconducting devices; and $935 million in mobile phones.
Some of California's other major exports to China — including nuts, fruits and wine — would also be affected by China's new 15-percent tariffs.
A trade war between the two nations could also disrupt exports from Texas ($16.28 billion in China exports in 2017); Louisiana ($7.97 billion); and South Carolina ($6.62 billion of products). These states followed Washington and California in the top five exporters to China by volume.
What was particularly interesting in my analysis was the potential political implications of a trade war with China. Six of the top 10 exporter states — Texas, Louisiana, South Carolina, Ohio, Michigan and Alabama — all voted for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.
Similarly, CNN Money also reported in early March that the five states most dependent on manufacturing-based employment — and thus also sensitive to the steel and aluminum import tariffs Trump announced — are Alabama, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan and Wisconsin, all states that voted for Trump in 2016.
The Brookings Institution, which also looked at all the products China has threatened to put tariffs on, calculated that 2.1 million jobs spread across 2,783 U.S. counties are at risk. Eighty-two percent of those counties voted for Trump in the last presidential election.
With the 2018 midterm elections around the corner, will President Trump be able to sustain a protracted conflict with China, especially if it hurts his supporters? While Trump has famously said that a trade war will be "easy to win," China's retaliation suggests that it plans to play a long game.
In the midst of all this, fears of job losses, rising prices on consumer goods and economic uncertainty are mounting across the country.
Fortunately, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang has urged the United States to continue negotiating a compromise and avoid a full-scale trade war. His latest step is encouraging.
On Tuesday, Li Keqiang, offered some relief from the recent escalating tensions, saying China would cut tariffs on car imports by year-end. This addressed one of President Trump's trade grievances.
But analysts note that pledge isn't a major pivot from earlier promises from China, and addressing auto imports is far from solving the trade pressures between the two countries.

Jens Berthel Askou (born 19 August 1982) is a Danish football coach and former professional player. He is in charge of AC Horsens.

Askou has played for a number of Danish clubs before moving abroad, first to Turkish club Kasımpaşa and then to Norwich City in England, before moving back to Denmark to play for Vejle BK. in August 2013 he signed a two-year contract with Esbjerg.

Club career
Born in Videbæk, Askou began his career at Ikast FS before moving to Holstebro Boldklub in 2002. His performances led to a contract with 1st Division Silkeborg IF in the summer of 2003, following a successful trial. He helped the club regain promotion to the Danish Superliga during his first season, and became a regular for four years. In 2007, Askou failed to agree a new deal with SIF, which led to a move to Turkish football with Kasımpaşa.

Kasımpaşa finished bottom of the 2007–08 Süper Lig, with Askou appearing frequently and scoring twice. However, despite Askou's own goal in the playoffs semi-final, the club returned to the top flight at the first attempt in 2008–09. His contract was not renewed the following summer.

Norwich City
In July 2009, Askou linked up with English League One club Norwich City on their pre-season tour of Scotland. He impressed suitably with his defensive displays in the club's friendly matches, also managing to score with a header against Airdrie United. Then manager Bryan Gunn confirmed on 27 July he had offered Askou a contract. It was revealed on 30 July that Askou had signed a two-year deal with Norwich. He made his debut in a 4–0 win over Yeovil Town in the League Cup on 11 August, helping to keep a clean sheet. Four days later, he scored on his league debut as Norwich drew 1–1 with Exeter City. Askou became a regular starter for Norwich until picking up a metatarsal injury in a league game against Yeovil in December, which kept him out until May 2010.

He scored a header against Blackburn Rovers in the League Cup in August 2010; a game which Norwich lost 3–1. Askou's opportunities at Norwich were limited in the 2010–11 season, making only two Championship starts in the first half of the campaign.

In January 2011, Askou moved to fellow Championship side Millwall on a one-month loan. He was sent off on his debut against Leicester City for a two-footed lunge on Yakubu. This was his only appearance for the club and he returned to Norwich in February. He did not appear again for his parent club either and was released by the club at the end of the season after his contract expired.

Vejle Boldklub Kolding
Askou signed a two-year contract with Danish first division team Vejle Boldklub Kolding in August 2011. During his time a Vejle, he scored six goals in 55 appearances and was appointed club captain in the summer of 2012.

Askou signed a two-year deal with Esbjerg in the Danish Superliga On 2 August 2013 for an undisclosed fee.

Coaching and later career
In 2015 Askou became playing assistant manager at Skive IK. A year later he took up the same position at Thisted FC.

In June 2017 Askou became Erik Rasmussen's assistant manager at Vendsyssel FF. On 8 May 2018 Rasmussen resigned as manager and was replaced by Askou. After an overall defeat against AC Horsens in the Danish Superliga relegation play off games, Askou and his staff was fired on 20 May 2019.

In October 2019, Askou signed with Denmark Series 4 amateur club TIF All Stars.

In the beginning of November 2019 it was confirmed, that Askou would become the manager of HB Thorshavn in the Faroe Islands starting from 1 December 2019. One year later, on 5 December 2020, he had won the double with HB Tórshavn by first winning the Faroe Islands Premier League and then the Faroe Islands Cup. He also won the honour as the best football manager 2020 in the Faroe Islands, chosen by the Venjarafelag Føroya (Faroese Association of Football Managers).

In January 2021 he left Tórshavn to become new manager of struggling Danish Superliga club AC Horsens.

Personal life
Askou is married to Rikke. The couple have three children – Julius, Cornelius and Augusta.  Julius and Cornelius attend the International School Ikast-Brande in Ikast, Denmark.

Брекзит / Brexit
15 Jan Брекзит / Brexit
Posted at 20:27h in forex	by	Major Developer 0 Comments
reports and literature available at his disposal. Nevertheless, this work succeeds in carrying through a coherent message that combines interesting facts and conclusions, which could serve as a starting point for further research of integration processes in EU as well as political https://www.maximarkets.org/brexit/ processes in Britain which resulted in the vote for Brexit. There is one more reason, however, why Brexit would be a disaster for Europe. The Chinese government is playing for time in Hong Kong in the hope that the demonstrators will lose heart and perhaps the will to resist.
La Chine est de plus en plus influente sur la scène internationale, selon Tony Blair
The rules oblige UK workers to have contributed for a number of years prior to claiming benefits. As a result, D. Cameron needed to avoid a stalemate and to proclaim a substantive victory, however result would depend on the response from other EU capitals. However, the author fails to mention a traditional argument for the British Euroscep-tics that Britain and EU diverge in political traditions.
Brexit could in fact breathe new life into this stalled alliance by creating momentum for a new EU initiative as a show of defiance to British Euroscepticism. But reticence of the French President's to discuss Brexit brexit новости is not attributed to ideological hostility by the author. Rather, the cause lay in France's twin economic and political weakness, which "hampers its ability to guide the future course of European integration"29.
RUDN Journal of Political ScienceVestnik Rossiiskogo universiteta druzhby narodov. Seriya: Politologiya
Thirdly, the growth of political influence of Euroscep-tics led to the vote on EU membership. Lack of reforms within EU which could be suited with the British played into the hands of Eurosceptics who claimed that the EU was unreformable and heading towards federal union. Fourthly, there was organized and well-funded opposition, namely, the Party of independence of the United Kingdom.
As the planned economy in the former Soviet Union began to collapse, the private enforcement and interest groups suddenly became "almost all that remained of the institutional infrastructure" (Braguinsky).
It is devoted to the key topic in international discussions — Britain's exit from the EU.
London has as much to offer continental interests (a conduit for independence from regulation) as the EU has to offer the UK in return.
A decade after the Great Recession, Europe's economy is still convalescing, and another period of prolonged hardship would cause serious, potentially dangerous economic and political damage.
Cameron, after improving the terms of membership the referendum was to reconcile two opposing camps by the results of vote to which the minority would be compelled to obey.
In 2017 the government stated its position in two White Papers and reports on the preliminary results of negotiations by the government members. British and would enable Eurosceptics to claim that EU was unreformed brexit date and was moving to a federative superstate. Secondly, severe criticism from mass media which not only drowned the statements of Europhiles, but also heated the anti-European moods due to manipulation by the facts.
Blair made the remarks during an exclusive interview with China Central Television (CCTV) on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum 2018 in Davos, Switzerland. On the whole, despite the fact that some of the author's observations have become obsolete in the https://www.maximarkets.org/ result of the pace of developments since the book's publication, the research by A. Glencross remains an important and historically sensitive account of this political event which proved to be decisive for the domestic as well as foreign policy of the UK.
A. Glenkross assumes that D. Cameron was confident of winning the referendum on the basis of a pragmatism and bean-counting evaluation. However, the public opinion "was out of step with the government cost — benefit argument" and "David Cameron's gamble proved a great miscalculation"4. The author ranks the 2016 referendum amongst the major political blunders of British Prime Ministers which caused shock waves across Europe and North Atlantic. The decision to delegate responsibility to the people ended up costing him his position as Prime Minister.
One of the benefits of work is that the author, among big number of referendums which took place in other EU countries on the European policy (about 50), managed to reveal the novelty of the British approach. A.
The success on elections in European Parliament of populist Party of Independence of the United Kingdom was connected in the book with the general negative perception of EU and the requirement to restrict immigration from other EU countries. The author accuses T. Blair's government of the scale of potential labour migration and chose not to impose transitional controls after the 2004 enlargement21. He mentions that even the Europhile wing in the Conservative Party recognized that enormous gains that the free movement of EU citizens offers, such as capital mobility and free labour movement, provides UK businesses with a vast pool of resources with which to innovate and grow, can be realized but only on the basis of accepting constrains on immigration policy. As it becomes known from the book, the Eurosceptics demanded unilateral concessions for the UK, such as parliamentary veto on European legislative procedure, as well as concessions on fundamental principles of EU, in particular, concerning free movement of EU citizens22.
EU heads of states and leaders of EU institutions were equally taken aback by this unprecedented reverse for European integration. A decade after the Great Recession, Europe's economy is still convalescing, and another period of prolonged hardship would cause serious, potentially брексит dangerous economic and political damage. With monetary and fiscal policy unlikely to provide enough stimulus, policymakers should explore alternative options. that we do not seem to come to an agreement in what shape or form such a European unification can work.
Glenkross agrees with the false opinion of the historian R. Granieri5, which regards the choice made by British voters as anti-EU, because "at no time has Britain actively sought to undermine an organization within which it was already a member"6. Moreover, he recognizes unexpectedness of the result for the academics because "there are no navigational charts for the course that now needs to be plotted".

Types of Electric Vehicle and Their History
EVs (all-electric vehicles) are powered by one or more electric motors. They receive electricity by plugging into the grid or solar, and they store the electricity in batteries. They consume no petroleum-based fuel and produce no tailpipe emissions.
EVSE (electric vehicle supply equipment) delivers electrical energy from an electricity source to charge a PEV's batteries. It communicates with the PEV to ensure that an appropriate and safe flow of electricity is supplied.
ICEs (internal combustion engines) generate mechanical power by burning a non-renewable liquid fuel (such as gasoline, diesel, or biofuels) or a gaseous fuel (such as compressed natural gas). They are the dominant power source used in on-road vehicles today but that is subject to change over the next ten to twenty years.
PEVs (plug-in electric vehicles) derive all or part of their power from electricity supplied by either the electric grid or from stored solar/wind power. They include EVs and PHEVs.
PHEVs (plug-in hybrid electric vehicles) unlike regular hybrids (the original Prius), the PHEVs can be plugged in for charging.
The PEV concept isn't new. More than 100 years ago, all-electric vehicles (EVs) held much of the U.S. car market, but their popularity waned as the interest in internal combustion engines rose. At that time, the ICE vehicle had a longer driving range, petroleum fuel costs were very low and stable. Gasoline and diesel-powered ICE vehicles ended up dominating transportation in the 20th century and still do so today.
Concerns about the environmental impacts of ICE vehicles sparked a PEV renaissance at the end of the 20th century. In 1990, California passed the nation's first zero-emission vehicle mandate, putting the state at the forefront of that decade's deployment of PEVs, such as the General Motors EV1, Chrysler EPIC, Ford Electric Ranger, and the Toyota RAV4 EV. Although all vehicles from this generation were discontinued in the early 2000s, California's vision helped set the stage for the next generation of PEVs.
Today, PEVs are back and ready to compete with—and complement—the ubiquitous ICE technology. Advances in electric-drive technologies like highly efficient AC motors, regenerative braking, and torque multipliers like Torque Trends ev-Torque Box, a single-speed EV gearbox, make EV-conversion economical. Continued technological advances in battery chemistry and specifically energy density along with charging efficiency have enabled manufacturers to introduce a new breed of PEVs that don't use an ICE at all, like Torque Trends EV motor and EV transmission power packages.
Every year more light, medium, and heavy-duty BEV models are available. Because of the benefits they offer, BEV market penetration and availability are growing quickly. BEVs are safe, convenient, and can slash a fleet's operating costs while demonstrating community leadership.
All-Electric Vehicles (EVs)
EVs (also called battery-electric vehicles or BEVs) use batteries to store the electrical energy that powers one or more motors. The batteries are charged by plugging the vehicle into an electric power source. EVs can also be charged in part by regenerative braking, which generates electricity from some of the energy normally lost when braking. EVs use no petroleum-based fuel while driving and therefore produce no tailpipe emissions.
Today's EVs typically have a shorter range than legacy vehicles have. Most light, medium, and heavy-duty EVs are targeting a range of 200 to 300 miles on a fully charged battery. Torque Trends feels that this is like trying to make a one size fits all approach. We have designed our BEV systems specifically for the lower daily mileage and low mileage fixed-route fleets. We take each fleet vehicle and design the most economical range package based on the average daily miles driven, and then build in a 10% cushion for the off or unusual day, no waste, no excess and no unnecessary costs.
Factors That Affect Plug-In Electric
The efficiency and driving range of BEVs vary substantially based on driving conditions and driving habits. Extreme outside temperatures tend to reduce range because more energy must be used to heat or cool the cabin. Cold batteries do not provide as much power as warm batteries do. The use of electrical equipment, such as AC compressors, battery and cab heating can reduce range. High driving speeds reduce range because more energy is required to overcome increased air resistance. Rapid acceleration reduces range compared with smooth acceleration. Hauling heavy loads or driving up significant inclines also reduces range.
Training drivers about the optimal ways to operate BEVs can maximize the efficiency and range of fleet vehicles. Torque Trends, Inc. provides a BEV driver training module to help its customers reap the maximum efficiency possible.
What Can BEVs Do for Your Fleet?
They can lower your operating costs and help you comply with government policies while demonstrating your commitment to environmental protection and the energy security that comes with Freedom From Foreign Oil.
How Much Reduction in Operating Costs?
BEVs can reduce your fleet's fuel costs dramatically because of the low cost of electricity versus carbon-based fuel. Because BEVs rely solely on electric power, their fuel economy is measured differently than in legacy vehicles. You might see it stated as miles per gallon of gasoline-equivalent (mpge). Or it may be broken down by kilowatt-hours (kWh) per 100 miles for EVs. Depending of course on how they're driven, today's EVs can exceed 100 mpge.
Powering a light-duty BEV and charging from the grid usually costs between 3 to 6 cents per mile. In contrast, fueling an ICE vehicle that has a fuel economy average of 11 mpg costs about 31 cents per mile. If 12,000 miles are driven per year, driving the BEV instead of driving the ICE vehicle could save approximately $3000* in annual fuel costs alone. Add to this the fact that maintenance costs of BEVs are dramatically reduced, usually by about one half. Once a vehicle is converted to BEV you won't purchase, service, repair or replace any of the following.
No gas or Diesel fuel
No engine oil
No fuel, air or oil filters
No emissions equipment or smog certifications
No exhaust system component replacement
No torque converter or transmission clutch problems (the EV gearbox from Torque Trends is an extreme duty, single-speed, planetary gear based reduction gearbox. It has no clutches, no pump, does not shift and has no computer or electronic solenoids.)
No engine rebuilds or replacements (quality AC motors have proven to be trouble and maintenance free for hundreds of thousands of miles)
And due to the regenerative nature of the AC electric motor, brake wear is typically cut in half so brake repair and replacement costs is much lower.
It is estimated from the above that the payback period of converting to electric power can be three to five years. Every year after the payback period, the cost to operate savings really start adding up.
*Fuel cost savings depend on electricity and gasoline prices as well as vehicle types and driving patterns. As of this writing, fuel costs have experienced a dramatic drop. As electric vehicles become more popular and carbon fuels usage is reduced the cost of these fuels is sure to increase and probably dramatically so.

The Center for a New American Security (CNAS) Board of Directors today announced that former U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Jeh Johnson; former commander of U.S. Strategic Command Adm. Cecil D. Haney, USN (Ret.); Vice Chairman, Investment Banking (USA) for Credit Suisse Frederick O. Terrell; and CNAS CEO Michèle Flournoy will join the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors also announced that Flournoy will transition from her current position as CEO to the Board of Directors effective December 31, 2017.
CNAS said that is board has established a CEO search committee to identify and recruit a new CEO.
Flournoy, who was undersecretary of defense for policy during the Obama Administration, was considered the favorite to be defense secretary in a Hillary Clinton Administration.
She was also under consideration for the #2 defense post in the Trump Administration, but faced stiff resistance and ultimately opted against taking the job.


So my friend Amelia Vincent asked me to write a guest blog about using my planner as an art journal for posting on her blog, My ADHD Life. It's a series of three guest posts from other bloggers about how they user their planners or journals, read more in her post titled Journals, Scrapbooks and Planners, Oh My.
When Amelia asked me to contribute to this series of guest blog posts, I was willing to play along, but also wondered to myself "Why? My planner isn't especially elaborate or scrapbooky!" But I started thinking about it, and surprisingly, somewhere along the way it did kind of develop into a planner with "art journaly" aspects.
……[In my planner] I thought that I'd buy all sorts of stickers and washi tape, and decorate my pages alongside with my appointments, to-do lists, and planned meals – and generally be all sorts of organized! But … I was all gung-ho about the format, and didn't actually stop to think if I had enough actual "planning" data to fill them.
What actually happened, as I soon found out, is that I had lots of blank pages… the emptiness stared at me, and I stopped carrying it around with me. Which just was not acceptable! So instead, I started filling my blank spaces with doodles.
