In this section, you can explore different reading strategies to ensure your reading, and in turn your assignments, are first-class. Reading for different subjects Different reading strategies are needed for different subject disciplines, and even for different kinds of writing within the same subject. Subjects in the humanities and social sciences often require fairly rapid reading of large amounts of information. Reading for these subjects requires you know where to look for the information you need, and to use contents and index pages very closely.
You may also be asked to read about the same topic from different angles. Science subjects tend to require slower and closer reading of smaller amounts of text.

Overview The essay is a commonly assigned form of writing that every student will encounter while in academia. Essays can be a rewarding and challenging type of writing and are often assigned either to be done in class, which requires previous planning and practice (and a bit of creativity) on the part of the student, or as homework, which likewise demands a certain amount of preparation.

Preparing your oral presentation First of all, think ... Think about what you want to achieve: do you want to inform your audience, inspire them to think about your topic, or convince them of a particular point of view?
Think about your audience: what background knowledge do they have about your topic? Do they have any particular interests? How are you going to involve them in your presentation? Then ... Brainstorm your topic and write a rough outline. Organising the content Introduction (may be written last) Capture your listeners’ attention: Begin with a question, a funny story, a startling comment, or anything that will make them think.
The Body Present your main points one by one in logical order. The Conclusion It is very important to leave your audience with a clear summary of everything you have covered. Delivering your presentation Talk to your audience, don't read to them! A presentation is not the same as an essay. Watch your language! Keep it simple. Use your body to communicate, too!

How Much Yardage Do I Need? We’ve all been there. Standing in an aisle of gorgeous fabrics… swooning at the computer screen… gazing lovingly (and with drool at the mouth) at THE.PERFECT.FABRIC for that next dress. Question is… how much to buy? Will 5 yards be enough? 10? Here’s a list of common garments from the 19th Century and their approximate yardage requirements. The yardages listed approximate using 45″ fabric. These yardages assume cutting the garment pieces on the “normal” grain for the era – most often “on” grain for bodices and skirts and bias cut for sleeves. 1813 Afternoon Promenade Dress Regency Era c.1800 to 1820 Basic Dress – 5 to 7 yards Evening/Ball Dress with train – 6 to 8 yards Spencer jacket – 2 to 3 yards Pelisse or Coat – 3.5 to 5 yards Jennifer in 1830 fashion plate reproduction Romantic Era c.1820s & 1830s Bodice – 1 to 1.5 yards Full puffed sleeves (short), pair – 1 to 1.25 yards Full length leg o’ mutton sleeves, pair – 1.5 to 2 yards Skirt – 3.5 to 5 yards.

Then, we can craft a long-term, fair, legal and genuine regional solution - one that has the wellbeing of people at its core. What are the Greens doing today? The Greens have a plan that is legal, respects people's rights and dignity, and would make a difference to people today. Kevin Rudd’s radical right-wing response to refugees is shameful. No wonder Tony Abbott has welcomed Rudd’s plan. What's in the Greens' plan? First, we need to provide safe pathways to a secure life to people waiting in our region right now.
Then, we need a regional response that is legal, effective and compassionate.

The suburban semi-detached house at 7 Blyth Grove, Worksop, was the home of the Straw family, who were grocers After William Straw senior died suddenly in 1932, his grief-stricken family decided to leave the house as it was Now owned by the National Trust, it offers a unique glimpse into family life in suburban Britain between the wars By Harriet Arkell Published: 11:09 GMT, 12 July 2013 | Updated: 14:24 GMT, 12 July 2013 When William Straw, a grocer, died suddenly in 1932, his grief-stricken widow and sons decided to leave their house exactly as he knew it.
Decorated in 1923, the redbrick Worksop semi then remained just as it was until the last Straw to live there, Mr Straw's son William junior, died and bequeathed it to the National Trust in 1991.

North Korean Ship Seized By Panama For Allegedly Carrying Ballistic Missiles - Iceweasel. PANAMA CITY — A North Korean ship carrying weapons system parts buried under sacks of sugar was seized as it tried to cross the Panama Canal on its way from Cuba to its home country, which is barred by United Nations sanctions from importing sophisticated weapons or missiles, Panamanian officials said Tuesday.
A private defense analysis firm that examined a photograph of the find said the ship appeared to be transporting a radar-control system for a Soviet-era surface-to-air missile system, and Cuba later called the equipment on the boat "obsolete defensive weapons" from the mid-20th century. A statement from Cuba's Foreign Ministry late Tuesday acknowledged that the military equipment belonged to the Caribbean nation, but said it had been shipped out to be repaired and returned to the island. It said the 240 metric tons of weaponry consisted of two Volga and Pechora anti-aircraft missile systems, nine missiles "in parts and spares," two Mig-21 Bis and 15 engines for those airplanes.
