Once again I have cut it close ... just made the submission deadline for the N(ational) C(ommunication) A(ssociation) February 15th deadline. My competitive paper is titled Virtual Communication in MMORPGs: Evolving forms, practices, and meanings: don't be intimidated by the length, the content has been written for quick read.

Microsoft snuffs out the competition by simply buying them out. Is this the end of WINAMP as we know it? I hope not. Funny, this is all over the underground, but I can't find a thing about it online to refer my loyal readers to.

My mind is ever consumed with any one of the eight (feels like million) projects I currently have going on. A paid-intern opportunity has presented itself close to home. I am perplexed with my first video editing project.

If you haven't yet checked it out, now is the time! Don't settle for your local radio mix, download WINAMP3 now and listen to all your favorite music via shoutcast streaming radio. Be warned that patience is required, as these evil geniuses who have developed the interface have not provided much in the way of documentation.

Before you jump on the bandwagon, please consider ....
What is it going to take for military action to be justified? I have read this statement and find it opposes war as a solution to the terrorism. If war isn't the answer, then what do you suggest? I oppose sitting on our asses in oblivion while terrorist countries like Iraq build arsenals of nuclear weapons, etc.Elizabethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14646993393354238191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3775479.post-875461062003-01-16T13:57:00.000-05:002003-01-16T13:59:24.000-05:00Whew! I can't believe that I am saying this, but I am thankful that my long winter break is over. I welcome the structure that class and work will provide, despite it cutting into the time I was spending on gaming. Breaks are good and necessary, although now it is time to maintain the intricate balance of focused study and lackadaisical leisure.

I selected the topic "Examples of Documented Change In New Media Objects" and created a website to showcase the study. This project prefaced an opportunity to submit a research paper for consideration in the National Communication Association November 2003 Conference to be held in Miami.

In the past 100 years, women's life expectancy has risen 32 years from 42 to 70. Contrasting this is the average age that new marriages occur, rising only 3 years from 22 to 25, while the divorce rate of women under 30 has risen dramatically. Terry Real, marriage counselor, explains that conflict results with the cultural shift Elizabethhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14646993393354238191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3775479.post-858016282002-12-10T16:31:00.000-05:002002-12-10T16:31:54.800-05:00The semester draws to a close, as I embark on several new projects all at once.
