Clutter really is something that can be ignored. Finding ways to cut through that clutter is difficult because as soon as you get something that reaches people right now, next month it just becomes part of the normal, routine, and falls into the background once again. Radio is great example of how we tend to deal with clutter - ignoring the commercials and only listening to the music or talk

I believe narrowcasting is going to be the next big wave of advertising. As more and more people are connecting to the internet and we move deeper into the DVR/TiVo age, broadcast commercials are becoming less and less relevant. I know that narrowcast advertising does tend to work better on me. Narrowcasting on the internet would be like receiving Field&Stream or the Cabela's catalogue. Throw

Columns written by any political analyst will have a bias toward conservatism or liberalism. As we all know, in the case of Bill O'Reilly that tends to be a more conservative-based opinion. FOX has done an amazing job of marketing O'Reilly as a journalist, though I believe that most people can see him for what he really is - an editorialist. I would place his work in the opinion section of any

I have chosen to use the article US Urges China to Use Restraint in Tibet as an example of bias in reporting. With a story such as this, bias is inherently written in to the story. This is due to China's press policies. As the reporter cannot present both sides of the issue to the public, the article is one-sided although it appears the Dali Lama is willing to accept Chinese sovereignty over

Visual repetition in any type of communication one is putting together is highly important. As the webmaster for my campus I have made it a point to keep a consistent format on each of the pages so that people can come to identify the site from any of the pages as part of the lhcfishers.com domain. Another place I take care to keep a consistent style is in video editing. As an audio/visual

Chapters 12 and 13 both focus on the visual aspects of writing reports from graphics implementation and design to the layout of the document itself. The goal is to create a document that draws people in and clearly shows the information you're presenting. I have often received emails where the authors forget about paragraphs or don't add an extra line in between their paragraphs. Each time I

Although Ganlai isn't a "Web 2.0" supporter, I like the direction he takes when dealing with the original article. Big Media was "losing" to these new, user-generated media outlets and it can be argued that they still are. But I believe that Big Media is beginning to take advantage of the Web 2.0 culture. How many sports writers now have dedicated blogs following a favorite team in the NFL,

It seems the author of the Web 2.0 article has a very negative view of the pervasiveness of the web in our lives. He takes the stance that it's just too easy to publish ourselves online and that as a culture we are becoming more and more self-focused as we can see what we have written, filmed and posted online. There is a basis for his argument that this waters down our culture by taking away

Like Sarah, this class is turning out to be completely different than I expected. I was expecting the class to be cut, dry, and about how to write the boring memos that I'm sure we've all read. I like that the expected work from us is supposed to be concise and get to the point right away. Some of the papers I reviewed for classmates in my ecology lab were very long and drawn out.

Simplify your sentences. Use an active voice. Chose the best vocabulary for your communication. Think of your audience as you're writing your communication. This summarizes chapter 8. I love this chapter because it gives me some basic guidelines and tips for creating an active voice. Guideline 3 details some of the reasons to use the active voice over the passive voice, though it does go on

Extending on from my last post, I think that keeping the information concise and useful for the reader really is half the battle. The other half, I think is what Mark has mentioned. Organize the material you present in a way so that your reader can quickly understand and use this information. I like Mark's mention of visual elements to help the reader better understand the information

Conducting reader centered research is such a different way of thinking and working from any research conducted before. This 'new' process seems more critical of the resources that are found or used as it's focus must be beneficial to the reader. One mistake I come across in the scientific community is that they present massive amounts of data and let that be the persuasive voice of the paper.

Seth made a great point about the ineffective use of graphics within text. . How many documents have we read where the graphic either had no context or even bearing on the subject? It is distracting and ineffective.

Guideline 2: Organize around your readers tasksThis portion of Chapter 4 is something that I will need to focus on as I create my own set of instructions for the Tech team at my church. What tasks are they performing? What is the “best way” to go about this? How can I streamline the process of set-up? But most importantly, how do I organize all this information so that it is easily accessible

Logos is a fact-based form of persuasion. Its’ strength lies in reasoning and hopefully leading the reader to agree with the author and making the ‘right’ decision. Ethos rhetoric focuses on the self or individual. A common example of Ethos would be celebrity endorsements of products. Pathos is an emotion driven form of persuasion where the author hopes to draw the desired response from the

As the tech team leader at my church I've had to read and try to understand directions given to us by the "main campus" guys.  They write directions and instructions the opposite of the way described in Chapter 23.  Despite being a veteran of live audio and video production for churches, I couldn't understand the information or organization presented in the set of directions given.  After my

Take a world-centric view.  For my environmental assessment class we have been discussing this for the past week.  How do we attack and environmental issues while using a holistic world view?  Chapter 3 in the text is asking the same question, only employing it for the sake of writing.  Thinking and working in this manner is something that we all need practice in.  It's hard.  It's not normal,

English and writing have never been my strongest areas, though I feel that I can accomplish the task well as it relates to scientific papers.  I attended a very small high school and endured three years of english instruction from the same teacher.  Because of that experience coupled with her style of grading, I haven’t been interested in english or literature classes throughout my college and

Understanding how to convey ideas in a straightforward, succinct manner and applying that knowledge is vital in today’s world.  Transitioning to an active voice is going to take effort as all the papers I have composed for that last few terms have emphasized a passive voice so that the emphasis is placed on the scientific research and findings.  It will be a welcome challenge to re-learn the

While out on a recent Friday Morning, Seth and I encountered some supporters for one of our presidential hopefuls... And as captured on video, one was waving the wrong American flag... a historic American flag. We decided that a commentary may be of some use to help explain the thought process behind displaying this historic figure. None of what you just watched is in fact serious. If we

The beauty of the leaves turning color, the air becoming crisp and fresh after the long, stuffy summer, the first snow on Mt.

So, I'm sitting here at WSU-Vancouver waiting for my ecology lab later today and thinking just how blessed I am. I've survived through three years of college so far. I've gone through a hard, isolated relationship. Yet looking back, despite my lack of walking with God and living for Him, He was right there every step of the way. Every thing I've been through has tempered me to be the man of

I feel that I need to apologize to a few of you at least. Dianna, Dan, and Mike, I'm sorry I haven't had time to script and film the first installment of Washington Man yet. Now that my summer really is over, I'm not sure if I'll be able to film any time soon outside of video blogs for the church. I'm glad you all like the idea and are anxiously awaiting the arrival of episode 1. That gives

Well, we survived the craziness of yesterday. For those of you who weren't there, the tech team and the set-up/tear-down team at Wy'East was at an all-time low. Luckily, for the 9 AM service our other sound guy, Scott, from NEMLU.com showed up. That allowed me to run the easyworship set for our worship. It ran decently well. We had some issues with switching to video at both the 9 and 11

I'm sitting here at Brewed Awakenings and trying to study for my ecology class tomorrow. It isn't working so well. For those of you who've talked to me any time in the last month or so, you know that I'm really resenting my job as a server at Applebee's . I've been at this job for over 3 years now, and it is a spiritually draining job. The things that I hear while working and the stuff I have

Yes, I'm counting down the weeks until I finally graduate (December of 08). So this week was interesting. As most of you know, I've been working on a lot of video blogs and projects for the Wy'East Campus of Living Hope Church. This summer has been an excellent exercise for the right side of my brain, the creative side. Now with school back in full swing, I've got to jump-start the left

So, today I honestly thought that I was starting a new chapter in the life of Josh. I was wrong, sort of. I did start WSUV (for those of you not up with the whole college crowd, that's Washington State University - Vancouver), but I show up to all my classes today and there's everyone from Clark that I just took Biology and Physics with this past spring. I'll admit, most people from Clark

So I've been told that I need to blog more by one of my readers. Yes, I do apologize for not getting on here recently and posting a new blog. I have had lots of exciting stuff going on though. Some of you know about some of the "upcoming" EGG episodes and all the craziness there, of which I've had the privilege to be a part of. I say "upcoming" only for the fact that the shows haven't been

Wow.I really don't want to say much more than that. Really. If I do, then I'm giving away the plot and, like Erik from EGG, I don't like doing that. Spend the money. Go see it.One of the things I just love about the Bourne movies is that each of the first two movies tell their own stories and leave you satisfied at the end of a crazy roller-coaster ride of action scenes and plot twists.

You're all probably sick and tired of all my posts from this past camping trip, but I promise, this next one will be the last. As you know, I'm an amateur photographer (still life, nature is my forte - I really don't do people) and I love to share my photos with people so I'm working on a slide show similar to the one posted below, only this time instead of a voice-over, I'll be putting together

This is the last video blog from my camping trip to Cape Disappointment State Park! Come on out to North Jetty and the Wikkiki Day Use Beach.And this is a picture of me scowling at a 7-foot-tall weed...

Warning - this one is long... about 14 minutes long. But it really is good. Seth, we'll eventually do one for you this long, if you're up for it. In this Blog I'm reading through the story of Joseph and how he dealt with his bitterness and was able to work through that, give it to God and was able to forgive his brothers for what they did to him years before. You can find his story in

Episode three takes you, my readers/viewers on a hike up the North Head Lighthouse trail. It's a moderately difficult hike that's about two miles long. Music for this blog was composed in GarageBand by me. Enjoy!

So, on the first day I didn't get my video camera out to blog on the Cape Disappointment Light House trail or the Mackenzie Head trail (which was actually the next morning, but that's okay) so here's a small slide-show to provide you with a glimpse of where I was.

(Lets get the stupid stuff out of the way here first.) The Mt Hamilton trail is located inside Beacon Rock State Park. The trail head is just North of the day-use parking area. At four miles, this is a good beginner/intermediate trail to accomplish. Hardy Falls/Rodney Falls offers a nice place to relax and cool down - it offers a chance to get your feet wet in Hardy Creek, if you wish.

Okay, so today I was just trying to clean out my video file on my mac and accidently deleted the entire thing. Now, that's not my mac's fault - it's mine. It just did what I told it to. So it's behaving, my fingers aren't. So I tried to just repair the install, and it ended up erasing and setting up a whole new install on my hard drive. That's probably a good thing due to the fact that I've

Hello all...Yes, I'm trying to blog more consistently now that I have a cool blog site here on blogger. So sleep has been a precious commodity on short supply starting Fri night/Sat morning. I worked a closing shift on Friday night and "had" to get up at 4 to go Sturgeon fishing the 'next' morning - it was actually just later in the morning since I hit the sack at 3 AM and took a little one hour

Okay, so Erik did his first concert review and it went well. I'm going to attempt my own restaurant review here. On Monday I was in downtown Vancouver with Micah (see spirit well books - video interview coming soon) and we walked past La Bottega, a small Deli type place. So today I decided that I'd go down there and check it out. I'm glad I did. All food is made to order...I don't remember

This week Seth visited a young men's small group led by Josh Dickens. It's geared toward 18-26 year-olds, but is open to any men. Here's a snapshot of what it's like...

Yes, summertime is truly upon us. With our unofficial high of 104 today, I'm glad we've got an a/c unit here at home and a pool out in the backyard! So what do you folks do to beat the heat?

So today I was on my way to the Mall and merging onto the highway when this small car, smaller than mine comes racing up beside me. Now, normally, this is just fine on the highway - I really could care less. But not this time. This time is when his lane is about to end and merge in with mine. Now I could tell you that I did the nice thing and just let this guy in because I witnessed him
