Aight I'll bite; I do love my music
For starters all of my playlists of Themed(tm), mostly on stories/fanfics or fandoms, so it's not all of my music in a jumble but rather what I custom pick for the vibes of the story and the section thereof. For this I'll use one of my larger FT/HTRYDS playlists since I think it's my largest at 134 songs. (I have too many playlists but also not enough. send help)
For funsies I'll add which character section each is in lol

HSJSJF OK I HAVE A FEW FOR YOU AND I HOPE ITS NOT TOO MANY AND IF IT IS FEEL FREE NOT TO DO THEM ALL BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY ILY🍾🎉🎉🎉🎉💕
🌳
🐝
🌙
�� (I'm actually genuinely so curious about this omg)
🎼
HI NO I LOVE ANSWERING ALL THE QUESTIONS SO SEND AS MANY AS YOU LIKE AKDJKS ILY THANK YOU💖
...this fella actually got pretty long so I'm gonna put one of these divider things-
🌳 ~ if you could live in any fictional world, what would you pick?
harry potter for sure! the whole voldemort thing is.. a little less than ideal bahaha (/sarcastic /joking) but going to a magic school would be amazing. not to mention luna lovegood is one of my favorite characters, like, ever, and I would adore being friends with her
🐝 ~ when you decided to change your name to august, what’s another name you almost picked instead?
eli is one! I’ve always loved that name, but in the end it just didn’t quite feel like me :)
🌙 ~ favorite [merlin] episode?
I’ve never been able to decide on just one, but I’ve got a group of ‘em :) The Sword in the Stone is definitely one of them, though I can’t decide between part 1 and 2 akdjskdj
🎨 ~ what color am I in your brain?
oo yes I love talking about this! to preface, people’s colors are made up of two things — their personality and the colors of their name. every letter in the alphabet has a color, though some dominate the others.
if you want the short version, you’re red. if you want the long version, read on bahaha
yours are a bit conflicting, to be honest! (which is not a bad thing; it’s actually very interesting, I think.) your name — gwyn/gwynedd — has a strong sense of forest green, with a bit of yellow. the “g” is that forest green, but it’s accompanied by brown. usually, “y” is a yellow-white, but in this case, it’s a golden color because it conforms to your personality’s color, which dominates the colors of your name. the letter “d” is usually an orange-red, but again it conforms to your personality, which makes it more of a sunny, vibrant red — which is actually the same color as your personality.
I think these colors reflect interestingly here as well, because they sort of remind me of Arthur in the forest wearing his golden crown and red cape of Camelot with that golden-yellow crest, and you were one of the first people I met in the merlin fandom! (you also remind me of my header now that I think about it akjdksjd)
so basically, you’re predominantly red, with bits of gold and forest green!! it’s very very pretty, really <3
the first yellow is minor btw. oh and I can’t get the red quite right — it’s not as saturated in my brain. but when I try to make it less saturated, then it’s undersaturated, so yeah skdjsk
[Images have alt text]
🎼 ~ song that I remind you of
this question was pretty challenging actually! everything was either too calm or too.. tech-y sounding (if that makes any sense). there were certain instrumental sounds I had in mind (acoustics because of your green/brown, but trumpets or something’s similar for your red/gold), but many songs I came across only had one or the other akfjskdj
one I’ve found is Little Talks by Of Monsters and Men, which is definitely very you in my mind. not because of the lyrics, but just.. The Vibe™️ kajdksjd.
For Forever from Dear Evan Hansen does as well, as it’s got that vibe of running through a sunny forest.
Epic III (“They danced...”) - Instrumental does as well, as it’s red and gold but also nature.
August (Acoustic), the sounds in it, remind me of the gentle kindness you show as well. there’s a lot of energy in your personality that can be seen in the previous 3 songs (and said personality’s red/gold color), but this feels like the genuine softness you also possess behind that energy (by softness i mean, like.. the feeling of a melting heart, or the quite, calm, tired love you feel after getting home from hanging out with friends, etc)... if that makes any sense :)
anyway thANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE ASKS I LOVE YOU <33 apologies if these last two answers don’t make much sense bahaha I’m trying to put things to words that I never have before akdjskdj
from August’s Birthday Celebration Ask Game!

Pixamattic Review
https://lephuocloc.com/pixamattic-review/
Among the factors that choose the achievement of your business, nothing beats visual substance. Notwithstanding how faultless your things
are, whether or not you can't give them an essential look, nobody will see them. In any case, here comes the issue: eye getting
visual substance is a certifiable misery in the throat! But in the event that you have had extended lengths of association with both the specific field and the
publicizing field, causing one will to take after striking your head against a square divider.

something to do with visual substance, Pixamattic will be there to get you out.
Brett Ingram is a lofty merchant from the outrageous mechanized business community Jvzoo. With various extended lengths of association with the publicizing
field, he has made sense of how to release in excess of 15 possible just as versatile things like Flicktive, Quotamator, Vizully,
Flickstr and AutoSoci. In all honesty, in case you revolve around the continuous leaderboards, you will find his name on a couple!
By the vibe of Brett's previous triumphs, I feel that Pixamattic will overpower the market in a since a long time prior run.

designs is? Every one of them can get you any occasion $400 per bargain!

Extraordinary publication chief instrument

Disregarding having a comparable source, all of them are faltering and will decidedly present to you a huge amount of money. Likewise, this mechanical assembly

words and liveliness characters, into your substance, change its experience, fix its concealing, along these lines generously more.

therefore share your post to different individual to individual correspondence accounts, for instance, Twitter and Facebook. Isn't this dumbfounding?
How Might It Work?
I used this thing as beta analyzer so you can think anything I study now.

own substance.

My Opinion:

Episode 100: Beta
“Earth can set you free.”
Bismuth is the first two-part episode in the series that was structured as a single long episode. Beta and Earthlings should have been the second.
This isn’t the first time the first half of a two-parter has ended abruptly (here’s lookin’ at you, It Could’ve Been Great), but there’s a difference between wrapping up a story without much resolution and just cutting to commercial midway through the story, and Beta does the latter. It’s not even a cliffhanger, it’s the beginning of a new scene that pauses for effect and starts exactly where it left off in Earthlings. In most regions they premiered back to back, and could be confused for a single unit if not for the title card.
This isn’t an actual complaint: it’s a harmless distinction to have Bismuth as one episode and Beta and Earthlings as two, especially because Zuke’n’Florido boarded this one and Molisee’n’Villeco boarded the next. But when you’re writing episodic reviews, you have to take the segments as they’re presented, and it is really difficult to review the first half of this story as a discrete unit. The rough equivalent would be writing about Bismuth up until they exit the forge and just stopping there.
I’m not gonna cheat and review Beta and Earthlings at the same time, despite them literally being one story. I could dig in hard to my view that they’re more connected than Mirror Gem/Ocean Gem, The Return/Jailbreak, It Could’ve Been Great/Message Received, and Super Watermelon Island/Gem Drill, but that wouldn’t change that they’re technically two different episodes, and I’m not changing the goal of this blog (to review the series episodically as parts of a whole) out of convenience.
But I am gonna cheat and pull my header quote from Earthlings. Because despite Peridot getting that wonderful moment then, it’s really about what’s happening now.
You can apply a three-act structure to just about any story if you try hard enough, but Beta is more smoothly divided into halves: Steven and friends at the barn, and Steven and friends at the Beta Kindergarten. The second half is fine. It’s honestly more than fine. We’ll talk about it, of course. But the first half is one of my favorite things in the world.
Amethyst’s arc continues to benefit from its funky flow. Our very first shot is of her whip cracking, outfitted with Bismuth’s upgrade, evoking both Bismuth and, well, Crack the Whip. Steven is still helping her out from Steven vs. Amethyst, and just like in that episode, his encouragement is only hurting: he compliments Amethyst’s whippery (and to be fair, he’s doing it more genuinely than in their video game fight), but she reveals that she’s still down on herself. In less than thirty seconds, we’re right back into the swing of things after a huge episode that had something but not everything to do with Amethyst’s insecurities.
And then we get to the barn.
The Meep Morp Exhibit is Florido’n’Zuke’s finest hour, and I’m saying that as a huge fan of Last One Out of Beach City. It’s everything I want in hangout comedy on this show, and thank goodness it has time to stretch, because every second counts. Like It Could’ve Been Great, we get a first half with a killer opening featuring Peridot, but this time we benefit from spending about half the episode basking in its glory.
(As tempting as it is to spend the rest of the post just telling each joke and intermittently saying “that was so funny,” I’m gonna write about the characters instead of the events. I know, I know, nothing is more entertaining than reading an over-analysis of comedy that threatens to take all the joy out of one of the most joyous sequences in the series, but you’ll just have to deal with it.)
I haven’t talked much about Jennifer Paz yet, but that’s because I’ve been saving it for now: it’s easy to argue she has better showcases than Beta (Can’t Go Back is likely her best episode, and The New Crystal Gems shows off her impersonation skills), but this is a terrific medley of all things Lapis Lazuli. We get sweet and earnest Lapis, pleased as punch to see Steven. We get hesitant but assertive Lapis, smiling while delivering a pitch-perfect “No” to Peridot’s request to fly everyone into the barn. We get Daria Lapis, dry as a bone as she talks about Meep Morps (a rare honest-to-god alien joke in a show about aliens). And we get Lapis as a comedy partner with Peridot; the Paz Pic above is the other half of the image I used for Shelby Rabara in Catch and Release, and like their characters they’re unstoppable together. It’s so great to see Lapis and Peridot getting along, considering we last saw them in a tentative truce, and the new status quo we establish here pays major dividends in the future.
In lesser hands, the tonal fluidity between sincere and sarcastic could have made Lapis seem inconsistent, but Paz has mastered both sides of the equation to the point where it all feels real. This dual nature fuels the best joke of the episode—Lapis correcting Steven’s analysis of a Camp Pining Hearts teen repeating “I just feel trapped” while surrounded by mirrors by saying she just likes the show—because it’s impossible to tell if she’s just messing with us (sorry, had to throw one joke analysis in there). It’s brilliant that a character who has been ambiguous from the start can retain this trait while shifting towards the side of our heroes.
And it makes her a great foil to Peridot, the straightest shooter in the series (not because she wants to be, but because she’s so unsavvy that it’s impossible for her to hide her emotions from us). She’s the consummate host here, openly admitting her desire to impress their guests and snooty without shame as she presents her Morps by name and tells us what they represent. Her bowtie is a wonderful gag by itself, but it gets even better when we see the doll she won in Too Short to Ride, whose bowtie has clearly been ripped out, floating helplessly in the water without comment (okay, last joke analysis, I promise).
Amethyst’s antsy desire to leave and focus on Jasper keeps us grounded: I could watch an entire episode about Lapis and Peridot showing off their exhibit without any conflict, but we have to keep the ball rolling on Amethyst’s story. Her loud lack of enthusiasm may seem mean (and it is), but showing her reject repurposed junk reveals just how out of it our trash-loving heroine really is. Plus, as she points out on their walk over, she has no reason to think much of Lapis, whose only interactions with Amethyst have been fights or playing baseball as gloomily as possible. Her attitude isn’t enough to put a damper on one of the best scenes in the series, but skillfully keeps us from drifting too far into the majestic realm of Gem Art.
In terms of the immediate plot, the actual goal here is getting Amethyst in the same room as Peridot, who’s the key to resolving her arc in two ways: she has actual answers in regards to Jasper, and she shares a history with Amethyst involving their mutual feelings of inadequacy. We get references to both Too Short to Ride and Too Far here as they talk about size and Kindergartens, and it’s a natural step in Amethyst’s growth to be helped by someone she once helped. This is a Peridot who’s aware of Amethyst’s issues with how she was made, who’s confident and even proud of her short stature, who’s a total ham with her developing metal powers, and who gives casual nicknames and pep talks when her friends are down. None of that would have been possible without her friendship with Amethyst, and it’s time for her to return the favor.
The Beta Kindergarten’s red sandstone has a warmer, brighter feel than the Kindergarten we know and fear, and we can actually see the sky. So while Amethyst’s cheerful attitude in On the Run acts as a contrast to the unsettling setting, Peridot’s snotty appraisal leans comedic. Shelby Rabara’s mean girl delivery of lines like “It was obviously a total rush job” is entertaining, sure, but it also shows a cute implied influence from Camp Pining Hearts and Lapis in her manner of speaking: it’s the same disdain we’ve seen from her throughout the series, but now through the filter of a haughty teen. We could have gotten away with a straight exposition dump about the Beta location’s role in the rebellion, because it’s fascinating lore and Peridot can be mechanical, but as ever, the opportunity is taken to characterize.
As the tour continues, that classic Kindergarten feeling creeps up on us. The eerie instrumentation that accompanies the Prime location quietly emerges as Steven takes a long look at a broken injector, and ominous percussion plays as we finally see Jasper’s hole, taking the wind out of Peridot’s rambling for a moment of whispered terror. Her attitude soon returns (I love that she dismissively refers to the enormous Jasper as “tall”), but is muted once again when we learn the cleverest plot point of Amethyst’s arc.
We know that Amethyst emerged late and small, and that she was an exception in the otherwise sterling track record of the Prime Kindergarten. But now, after minutes of pointing out how all the denizens of Beta were a mess, we realize that Jasper is Amethyst’s polar opposite: a single massive success in a sea of mediocrity. She’s not just good, she’s perfect, born right on time and flexing her muscles all the way out. It’s worth repeating that a handful of episodes ago there was zero connection between Amethyst and Jasper, but thanks to some seriously elegant writing the pair now feels fully intertwined.
There isn’t an actual resolution to Beta, but the closest we get is Amethyst’s newfound resolve to beat Jasper. After an entire episode spent sulking, our hero is finally revved back up and brimming with enthusiasm, which leaves Peridot picking up the buzzkill baton. Amethyst may be in a better place, and her kinship with the messy offspring of Beta is heartwarming, but she still thinks the only road to satisfaction is defeating her rival in single combat. It’s a mindset that befits her quartz heritage, but I’m glad that it’s Peridot, who got out of her own slump with help from Amethyst, who feels comfortable pointing out that it’s not a realistic goal. Steven’s input has been consistent throughout the episode, and Peridot (who was once told not to focus on what she can’t do by a certain purple Gem) could have been drawn in by Amethyst’s zeal. But for all her artistic sensibilities, this is still a blunt realist, and after going out of her way to try and prove Jasper’s inferiority she’s still forced to admit that Amethyst’s goal is a pipe dream.
Steven keeps to the background here, due to that consistent input. Obviously he’s still charming and helpful, but Beta is more about Amethyst and Peridot in the grand scheme of things. It shows his continuing growth as a leader, realizing that a kindred spirit like Peridot could help Amethyst out, and he still gets a brief pep talk that gets the ball rolling on Amethyst’s rekindled desire to fight Jasper. But he’ll get more focus after the commercial break. For now, we realize that the strange holes are cages for Corrupted Gems, then Jasper emerges from behind a sand cloud, then Amethyst pulls out her whip, then
Future Vision!
We actually meet the Beta Kindergarteners that Amethyst was hyping up in That Will Be All, including Skinny and the Carnelian that Peridot mentioned.
I’ve never been to this…how do you say…school?
Dude, spoilers that Peridot’s gonna become a farmer!
We’re the one, we’re the ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR!
It’s our hundredth episode! And that means a new expansion of the top list from fifteen to twenty! When It Rains, Catch and Release, Chille Tid, and Keeping It Together return to the higher heights, while Bismuth squeezes right in in the sixteenth slot. We’ll be expanding again to a top 25 at episode 125 to maintain the percentage of glory for another moment.
As for Beta itself, it was a tough call. But if I’m being honest with myself, I love the opening scene so much that it makes up for it only being half a story. I’ve watched that scene alone so many times and it still satisfies.

At the beginning of last year or so, I bounced around the idea of a “proper” blog dedicated to (other people’s) music for thinking/writing/setting the atmosphere for thinking or writing, with the occasional essay post about writing itself. I kept up with it for about 8 months. then the tumbles consumed me and I didn’t see a point continuing it since I didn’t get a lot of page visits and this hellsite is frankly much easier to use
It’s mostly instrumentals (soundtracks, ambient atmo, piano solos, folky stuff)...nothing jarring or pointlessly loud, and very little that you’d find on, say, standard radio (if you’re, yanno...bored of normal playlists or phobic about the legion of trendy shrill stuff out there).
I also started a Mixcloud on the same theme (which you can find links to on the above blog) but curating mixes was actually a pain, so I only got around to doing a few of them.
This has been largely on hiatus because my attention got too divided at a certain point, but there’s a fairly sizeable archive to go through if y’all want to poke around (ignore the link that says “archives” in the blog header because I never got around to updating it and it was only a redundant organizational scheme).

Empathy Mapping for Advertising and marketing Content material: What It Is and Easy methods to Do It Effectively
Have you ever seen that the very best books and flicks are so completely immersive you’re feeling as for those who’ve really entered the world they depict? Which is why I would argue that the individuals most expert in content material aren’t essentially the very best writers; relatively, they’re those who’re in a position to empathize with characters so nicely that their creations appear actual.
When writing for advertising, it’s worthwhile to join along with your viewers. However first you must perceive who they’re and what they care about. That is the place empathy mapping is available in.
What Is an Empathy Map?
An empathy map is a instrument that brings to mild to your almost certainly clients. It teaches you learn how to join with the individuals who will eat your content material, merchandise, or companies.
Usually divided into quadrants of say, assume, do, and really feel, the empathy map is meant to get into the top—and coronary heart—of the client. It lets you visualize that what somebody says would not at all times align with what they do. That is why it is also vital to grasp what they assume and really feel.
For instance, somebody would possibly say they love the service you present, but nonetheless shun your merchandise. May or not it’s that the price is simply too excessive, and of their social circles that might not be one thing they’re prepared to say? Or possibly they really feel passionately about your merchandise however assume the acquisition is not sensible.
Sadly, these conflicting “packing containers” within the empathy map are the norm: Human life is rife with examples of cognitive dissonance that make little sense for those who assume buy selections observe the 19th century purchaser funnel of attention-interest-desire-action. They do not.
Which is all of the extra purpose to essentially perceive what would possibly inspire your customers.
Apparently, empathy maps are already frequent within the design business. Tech specialists in consumer expertise and agile design use empathy maps to assist them improve consumer satisfaction. Whether or not they design new merchandise, software program, or web sites, they need to come as near what the consumer desires as doable—so that they attempt to empathize with them.
If the tech specialists get it, why do not the remainder of us?
As a result of digital permits us to measure the success of each piece of content material we create and disseminate, even probably the most naturally empathetic writers amongst us might have shifted away from our instincts. We would like our movies, pages, and posts to rank. We need to please the Google gods and all their algorithmic updates.
However, the factor is, Google’s objective has at all times been to behave extra human. Each algorithm is one other effort to offer customers with the very best expertise doable.
It is time to get again to human. And empathy mapping may help.
Easy methods to Get Began
Set some objectives
However not simply your individual objectives.
Certain, it’s worthwhile to know that this empathy mapping train has a objective. And like each enterprise class ever taught you, your objectives needs to be SMART: particular, measurable, achievable, related, and time-bound. Now think about the one consumer or the group of customers you’ll goal along with your map, the motion you need them to take, and the way you would possibly greatest get there. But when the objective of empathy mapping is to empathize (and it’s), then the objectives it is best to actually think about are these of your viewers:
What about your content material will enchantment to customers? What’s it about your product that’s uniquely suited to perform their objectives? What do they care about? Who’re they?
There’s a lot you are able to do with content material to offer customers a greater expertise, and it is not simply in regards to the precise content material. The way you produce it issues, as nicely.
For instance, do you know that as much as 43 million Individuals are dyslexic? Create weblog posts which are visually simple to learn, and also you make them extra accessible to these readers. Embrace simple headers, daring font, and simple-to-digest paragraphs. It helps thousands and thousands of individuals get your content material. Bonus: it is sound search engine optimisation apply.
Collect information
Ah, information is concerned! No surprise techies use empathy maps.
Pull information from a number of sources:
Begin with Google Analytics to be taught the demographics and psychographics of people that come to your web site and eat your content material. To deduce consumer intent, use Google Search Console to see the key phrases that get you clicks. And be cognizant about the place within the purchaser journey these customers are. Do you promote on Fb? The platform’s Viewers Insights presents a trove of knowledge. And instruments that show you how to measure search engine optimisation success (like SEMrush) show you how to see what your opponents are doing for his or her search engine optimisation. Get granular and pull precise buyer information from your individual CRM. Then transfer onto broader insights: Take a look at nationwide shopper developments on your merchandise. Google’s Shopper Barometer instrument is a straightforward place to begin, however do not neglect financial developments and the information you’ll find in commerce magazines and business publications.
The extra information you might have, the extra you’ll be able to perceive your shopper and the place they match—within the empathy map and within the bigger world.
Construct out of your present personas
In case you’re promoting something to anybody, you’ve got in all probability already constructed out a technique to market to them. And that often entails creating patrons personas. There is not any have to trash good work. Take a essential have a look at what you already learn about your splendid shopper and the way they work together along with your content material and construct upon it.
Add Anecdotal Proof
Understanding the story behind your customers is the entire level of empathy mapping, so communicate to your precise clients. Carry out interviews, enlist researchers, conduct surveys. Ask questions on who they’re, the place they’re from, and, most significantly, why they do the issues they do, particularly with regards to what they select to learn, view, and purchase. And ensure to speak to the individuals who discuss to your clients. What do your salespeople say? What about customer support reps? Take heed to their tales and add them to your empathy mapping.
Fill in Your Map
Or maps. Very like you do not have a single purchaser persona, you might produce a number of maps over time. Take all that information and put the data within the acceptable packing containers/quadrants. Here is how the Interplay Design Basis outlines that course of:
What do they say? Write down vital quotes and key phrases potential clients used. What do they do? Describe their actions and behaviors. What do they assume? What would possibly they be considering? What are their motivations, objectives, wants, needs? What does all that say about their values and beliefs? How do they really feel? What feelings would possibly they be feeling? Contemplate their physique language, their alternative of phrases, their tone of voice.
When filling out the map, do not get mucked up within the particulars. In case you’re undecided if an information level is a “assume” or a “really feel,” simply decide one. This train is extra artwork than science. What you are making an attempt to do is immerse your self within the consumer’s world—very similar to you are in a position to do in these nice films and books.
Here is an instance of a accomplished empathy map from the Nielsen Norman Group (NN/g):
Draw Some Conclusions
Truly, you are not on the lookout for conclusions a lot as hypotheses about your customers.
Take the retrospective data you gathered out of your mapping train, and construct out potential mapping. You are of their world now, so think about what-if eventualities that join your customers to your content material.
What story are you able to inform that can enchantment to them? What sort of content material are you able to produce to interact, educate, and entertain?
These Uncover bank card commercials have the correct concept with their “We deal with you such as you’d deal with you” tagline. Genius! And the way empathy works.
Share Your Mapping
Empathy maps are nice instruments for creating nice content material. However they’re additionally vital for these individuals in Gross sales and Buyer Service. Oh, and Product Improvement!
Do not hoard all the precious data you’ve got found about your clients. Unfold the information companywide.
Iterate and Enhance
You are not accomplished. Empathy maps ought to frequently evolve as you collect extra data and perception. Evaluate your maps on a quarterly foundation. Tweak, add, enhance.

Let’s talk about being organized and how to create an efficient system for your chemistry notes!
I will be the first one to admit that I’m not always organized or put together. Though in retrospect, I should’ve been because it saves you 87684 hours when you sit down to study for an exam. On that note, let's get started!
Binder/Folder/Notebook Organization
Color code the subjects to match folders and notebooks. What I mean by this is to have a purple folder to match your purple notebook for chemistry. This system really helped me organize my subjects by color and quickly access them when I have to do homework or look over notes. (On top of that I like to use the same color when writing in my planner for due dates!)
Divide your binder into sections. Try to be mindful of over using colors on this part. It can start to get messy if you use the color system for your subjects and then another color system within that subject. Let me give you an example for chemistry:
General Notes - this includes basic stuff like vocabulary and theories.
Nomenclature - keep it simple and just continuously update it.
Reactions - put headers on the paper with what category these reactions fall into (Synthesis, Carboxylic reactions, Amine reactions, etc.)
Instruments - this relates more to an analytical chemistry class or an organic class, but don’t forget to include some pretty illustrations and sample spectrums.
Handouts - organize them by chapter and put answer keys behind each one if given.
Quizzes/Tests
Create a binder cover. These are fun to make because you can either draw it or print out an already made cover. I usually find a pretty font and colorful background.
Buy a separate binder to store old notes. So this is good for people like me that hoard their notes... and only use notebooks during the semester. When I finish a semester I usually have assigned binders to store my notes. For example, I have a 3-inch binder for ONLY general chemistry notes/tests/handouts. Then I have a binder for ONLY organic chemistry notes/tests/handouts. This system has made it extremely easy to store my notes under my bed and then pull them out when I tutor students!
Chemistry Note Organization (This can easily work for any other subject, but I’m going to stick to only chemistry-related for this post!)
Embrace the color system. Like I said before, don’t try to overdo it but adding colors in chemistry notes make it easier to follow. My prime example for this is organic chemistry:
Write non-carbon atoms in blue, purple, or green. Maybe do halogens as blue, oxygen/sulfur as purple and nitrogen as green. Do whatever works for you!
In a different color pen (black if you write in pencil), write the solvents used to perform the reaction. I don’t know how many times I forgot to look out for solvents because I read right over them...
In arrow-pushing mechanisms, I really liked to draw the arrows in red. This allows you to see how the reaction scheme works and what atoms get eliminated, substituted, or added.
Label compounds/ions if they're either an electrophile or nucleophile. Another thing I commonly read over because it blended in too well with my notes. The first-semester organic chemistry class is really heavy on knowing these terms and being able to identify them.
Highlight key terms. Pretty obvious but I know some people who have notes that are nothing but in pencil. I honestly don’t know how they can read their notes and study them...
Date and put headers. Another pretty obvious thing but sometimes it’s hard to keep track of what you need to focus on for a test. I usually go off dates and start with the first lecture after a test!
Get creative and draw illustrations. It spices up the notes and sometimes it’s better to study with a picture. This works well with theories like the Bohr model! Maybe even draw your own little IR spectrums or NMR peaks. I did that when reading my secondary organic chemistry book. Oh, and why not put some color in those illustrations as well, haha.
Annotate equations by circling variables you don’t know. I’m currently doing this for my analytical notes and it makes understanding the equations so much better! I can go back and see why or what a certain variable is being used.
Use margins to annotate. When going back at study notes, it can get crammed if you annotate them all over the pages. So try to create a column only for these side notes.
These are all the things I can think of when it comes to organization. If you have anything else to add, please feel free! Hope you enjoy. :-)

Basic Website UI/UX Elements Every Business Should Have In 2020
1. Site structure is vital

Presently we should talk about what to search for. We need catchphrases that have a high volume of search every month but on the other hand are high plan watchwords. Catchphrases that can prompt clients. While checking through catchphrases, make certain to really Google them. Check whether you have a chance to rank for them. In the event that you are going up against large name organizations, it merits searching for longer-tail catchphrases to go after.
3. Enhance item pages
Essentially reordering item depictions from contenders or producers isn't sufficient. Item portrayals and item pages are really an essential part to your prosperity. Exploit and improve each zone, including H1's, Meta Titles and Meta Descriptions.
Make your item portrayals hang out in an imaginative and interesting manners by
Adhering to your marking
Limiting utilization of language and keeping your portrayal simple to peruse/examine
Using list items to recognize specific highlights/benefits
Addressing the purchaser persona all through your duplicate
4. Maintain a strategic distance from copy content
When running an internet business store it tends to be troublesome not to copy content. At the point when you have tens, hundreds, or even a huge number of items it can turn out to be progressively hard to separate item portrayals and varieties. Which can possibly be unfavorable to your inquiry rankings.
So what would you be able to do? To limit this substance negatively affecting positioning, either include a standard tag or a 301 divert for pages to guarantee web indexes comprehend which pages may have indistinguishable or comparative substance.

5. Think about the portable experience
Adobe Analysts revealed that a little more than 33% of a year ago's Black Friday deals were made on cell phones, demonstrating that portable initially isn't only for Google and SEO.
versatile the shopping extravaganza following Thanksgiving deals
Upgrading your site for versatile first is an unquestionable requirement now.
As web based business storekeepers we should be taking a gander at:
Responsive portable plan as an unquestionable requirement
Page speed and burden time streamlining on versatile
Simple to utilize versatile route and UX
Basic versatile checkout
Star tip: When making your versatile first internet business website, guarantee you are likewise using Privy for portable and work area. Look into Google's versatile spring up punishment.
6. Add sitemap.xml to look through support
Despite the fact that numerous famous online business stages consequently produce your sitemap.xml it's as yet imperative to add your sitemap.xml to Google Search Console. For what reason do you have to do this? Your sitemap.xml is a rundown of the apparent multitude of significant pages of your internet business webpage ensuring Google can discover and slither them all.
This sounds convoluted, how would I do this? (Trust us, it's not.) Shopify has an exhaustive stroll through on the best way to do this.
7. Enhance classification pages
Class pages are similarly as significant as item pages and follow a great deal of similar standards—extraordinary and inventive substance centered around on location SEO best practices. Here are a couple of speedy successes that you can remove for your class pages:
Advance class titles from your watchword research.
Advance your class meta depictions. Attempt to sum up your item and contributions while being one of a kind, imaginative, and urging clients to click.
Include your classification H1 Tag. Guarantee there is only one for every page and follow best practices simply like some other page or bit of substance.
Incorporate a depiction of your class page directly beneath your H1 tag. You may separate your substance by including a short structure bit of substance at the top underneath your H1 tag and a more careful book content at the base of your classification page in the event that you want.
Incorporate Internal connections inside the portrayal.
Incorporates pictures. Visuals in internet business are fundamental and a class page is the same. Fuse visuals of your items all through the classification page. You can even incorporate a custom realistic at the header of your class page to additionally separate.
8. Stay away from broken connections
This may appear to be a simple one, yet it's significant. We have all accomplished the feared "Page 404 Not Found."
It's a terrible client experience for everybody, including Google. As you develop, checking your site for 404's and fixing broken connections should become routine upkeep.
There are a plenty of instruments accessible to discover broken connections rapidly on your site. A portion of the better alternatives out there include:
Moz
Shouting Frog
Sitebulb
Keep in mind, if an inside page is 404 you can generally 301 divert the first URL to the new page. Main concern, fix 404's and everybody wins.
9. Augment site speed
This is a greatly well known theme that can make a prompt effect on your web based business store and guest experience.
There are a ton of good devices out there that can assist you with estimating your page speed and reveal what could be hindering your site. My preferred free ones are:
The best part about both of these instruments is that they give wise things to do that can be fixed right away. Remember, a few issues will be more hard to settle than others (and will require an entire other blog entry on the most proficient method to fix every one of them).
10. Keep your store secure with HTTPS
It's stunning to at present consider stores to be HTTPS as we're going into 2020. Be that as it may, it isn't past the point where it is possible to get your store secure. Here's the reason it is critical.
As a storekeeper you are gathering individual subtleties from clients. It's best practice to guarantee that all data gathered is encoded. All data.
On the off chance that you required another motivation to do this, Google proclaimed HTTPS as a positioning variable for locales. So Google will compensate you too.
Fortunately most internet business stages offer SSL standard on their foundation or, make it effectively accessible to buy.
11. Compose more substance
Each online business store should begin making content. Regardless of whether that be composed, video, or, sound—quality written substance makes all the difference. The recurrence of your substance is up to you. Notwithstanding, Hubspot released an investigation exhibiting some quantitative exploration on the issue.
blog traffic increment recurrence
12. Make your substance simple to peruse
Nobody appreciates text dividers.
Truth be told, just 16% of individuals really read pages in exactly the same words. Most guests filter a page and bob in the event that they don't quickly observe what they're searching for.
While the jury is still out on whether skip rate is utilized as a Google Ranking element, basically if your page is difficult to peruse, individuals won't read it.
Attempt and keep your passages fresh with breaks in the middle. Use list items for extra breaks in your substance.
Ace tip: Run site duplicate through a Flesch-Kincaid comprehensibility scoring apparatus to rapidly measure if your page is anything but difficult to filter and comprehend. Here are some free choices:
Intelligible
Lucidness Test Tool
Lucidness Analyzer
13. Utilize inward connects to support traffic to failing to meet expectations pages
When you begin to see guests streaming into your store from online inquiry, consider connecting pages with higher natural traffic to pages you're despite everything attempting to rank for.
This site structure drives connection value and effective importance to fresher pages, improving their capacity to rank.
In one contextual analysis, the group at Ninja Outreach had the option to build their natural traffic 40% using key interior connecting alone.

Divi Design Showcase: New Submissions from April 2019
It’s time again for our monthly Divi Showcase where we take a look at 10 amazing Divi websites made by our community members. Each month we showcase the best Divi websites that were submitted from our community and today we want to share with you the top ten websites for the month of April. Throughout the post, I’ll point out some of my favorite design features that draw me to each of the websites.
I hope you like them!
Divi Design Showcase: New Submissions from April 2019
1. Motion University
This site was submitted by Andrew Bartlett. The site uses a dark background with white text with yellow and orangish (technically it’s dirty brown) highlights. All background images are dark. The hero section shows a background image that describes the site. The text in the overlay includes a tagline and CTA on the left and a play button on the right. The play button changes on hover and opens a video in a popup when clicked. Other sections show information in two columns with text and images. The layout alternates as you scroll. Between the sections, there are small thumbnails with speech balloons for testimonials. A full-width CTA provides an image with a subscription form. More testimonial speech balloons create a revealed footer.

2. JD Designs
This site was submitted by James Dawson. It displays a full-screen slider with background images and dark overlays. The overlays use large text to describe the site and provide a CTA. Scrolling reveals another section with large text over a white background that describes the company. Services are shown in text with an interesting dot divider between the title and description. The portfolio section shows images with overlays. This section uses wavy section dividers and a gray background that stands out just enough from the rest of the layout. Several other sections use this design but with blue backgrounds. I like the section with extra large client logos. They’re shown in dark gray in four columns.

3. Swwwish
This site was submitted by Daniel Neumann. The site displays a full-screen background with a dark blue overlay and a CTA in white text to one side. Services are shown in blurbs with a box shadow and animated icons. The background pattern is seen through the blurb. Hovering intensifies the box shadow effect so they stand out and makes the blurb fully opaque. Several two-column sections alternate their layouts with text on one side and images on the other side. The text in these sections shows animated icons and highlighted text. The pricing page makes excellent use of a simple blue and white design with white pricing tables. I like the red glow from the pricing table’s buttons. The red highlights bring in just enough color and stand out perfectly.

4. HH Instruments
This site was submitted by Mathias Rue. The site uses an orange to red gradient background with icons to create an engineering design. The overlay displays company information, buttons, and a search feature on one side and a contact form on the other. The drop-down menu includes a full-width button to the contact page. Partner logos are shown in a slider with a link to the supplier’s page. Blurbs are used for links to services and information. They include 2-color images as icons and they have an interesting border to make the blurbs stand out. A section for references uses a similar design but they’re much larger and include client logos for the images. The design is also used for the blog section. The layout also includes embedded articles from LinkedIn over the same background as the hero section.

5. IQ Animation Studio
This site was submitted by Saurabh Patil. The hero section shows the tagline, information, and CTA on one side and an animated graphic on the other side over a dark blue background gradient. The animated graphic is fun to watch. I want one of these coffee dispensers. An even darker blue is used for the rest of the backgrounds and for the buttons. Four columns of blurbs show animated icons with a title. They use a dark blue background and a gray border that’s just light enough to stand apart from each other. Hovering over any of the blurbs turns their background to orange. Similar designs are used for other blurbs that provide information. An interesting about section showcases an animation over cool artwork in parallax. The pages also show a cool loading animation.

The next section uses wavy section separators for the top and bottom – each with a different design and in multiple shades of the background color. This section also shows the topics as square images that zoom out and change their border on hover. A section for resources and the blog section (but with taller images) use this same design. An about section shows the site owner in a circled image and the same scripted font style as the logo. The signup form shows the freebie with the scripted font for the title. The blog and sidebar are also styled to match the site’s branded design.

1931 Ford Roadster Packs ARDUN V-8 Power
You could say that Bobby Hilton has reinvented the Model A Ford. His angry-looking A/V-8 coupes are seriously chopped and dropped, and they’re running vintage OHV V-8s (but not Chevys) with open headers. Hoods and fenders? Radials? Forget ’em. Big ’n’ little bias-plies, honey-finished interior wood, minimal chrome, and exceptional paint finish them off. Hilton’s hot rods ooze attitude. You can’t miss them—and they beg to be driven. Bobby and his clients think nothing of boogying from his shop in The Plains, Virginia, all the way to Austin for the Lonestar Round Up.
First time they did that, it rained like crazy, but all four of Hilton’s hoodless, fenderless coupes just hammered along. Nothing broke, and in Bobby’s words, “We flat had a ball, man.” An ex-drag racer whose wife Diane’s parents are famous drag racers Jim and Allison Lee, Bobby is down-home southern, through and through. His syrupy Virginia accent is sprinkled with jazz slang. He does most of the work on his cars himself, in a tiny shop that’s tucked away in a posh equestrian park. Don’t look for a fancy garage with matching tools. That’s not happening. Bobby has an artist’s keen eye for aesthetics, a drag racer’s can-do attitude, and the hands-on skills of a crew chief who knows how to do things right.
Bobby achieved national recognition when he built a chopped Model A coupe for Tony Lombardi of Ross Racing Engines, in Niles, Ohio. It was a Hilton-style car, for sure, but done with a bigger budget that permitted little more chrome and a lot better paint. Perched on Deuce ’rails, hoodless, and packing a 400-cid stroker Olds V-8 with a polished 4-71 blower, Lombardi’s Model A was selected as the Goodguys 2014 Hot Rod of the Year in Indianapolis.
“That whole Goodguys thing was the best,” Bobby grins. “And I had never even been to a Goodguys event before.”
Ask Bobby Hilton how he defines one of his cars and the answer is immediate. “It’s got to look pissed off.” His cars don’t have hoods. They don’t have fenders. The big V-8 motors are souped to the gills, and very nicely detailed. They’ve got that 4-1/4-inch chop and that sneaky little sunvisor. They are Model As with an attitude.
“Maybe I painted myself into that corner with these Model As,” Bobby admits, “but right now, I think it’s a good corner. I like them slammed in the front, man. They have flat front crossmembers. Put them down on the ground in the back, make the wheels follow the wheel. Put 7.50s, 4.50s on old steel wheels, get a nice rake going. They’ve got to have a vintage motor, and I like to keep real Ford parts on them. I try not to use a lot of aftermarket stuff in the suspension.”
Bobby’s a good mechanic because he had to be one from the outset. “I was raised at a time in drag racing where you were damn lucky if you had a professionally built chassis. Later on, Woody Gilmore built some cars for us. But I was working on race cars when I was 13. We did it all, man, from A to Z.” And he still does.
“We’ve been building those cowl steering boxes ourselves, in-house. That’s a big part of the look. They are F-100 truck boxes. We’re modifying the sectors on ’em and creating a center steer box, similar to a Schroeder setup, but more true to hot rods instead of being a racing box. Every one of my cars has one. I put a center steering setup in my son Tyler’s car 10 years ago. It’s not brain science. It’s got a lot of racing background in it. Plus, it makes it damn simple to get the steering around these vintage motors. Typically, they have the starter on that left side; they’ve got some big filter or something else going on. You wouldn’t be able to get a steering column in them if you wanted to.”
For a guy who’s admittedly not an engineer, Bobby is an intuitive technician with some ingenious solutions that don’t break the bank and work really well.
More builds and even more exposure followed the success at Goodguys. Bobby has a suite of 1932 Ford chassis modifications he likes. He uses original Ford parts wherever possible. Hilton’s “Angry A’s” are immediately recognizable with their fully exposed, 4-71 blown, OHV V-8 motors from Oldsmobile, Buick, Cadillac, and Chrysler, flowing outside headers using reworked 1936 Ford driveshafts, flattened X-members, kicked-up 1932 Ford frames, Buick finned brake drums, 5-inch handmade dropped axles, and TREMEC five-speeds. Hilton Hot Rods’ Model As sit right and run like crazy.
But they’ve all been coupes.
A couple of years ago, Bobby told me, “If I had my grand plan of the world, I’d want to put a roadster of mine in the AMBR. I don’t have to win. I just want to get in line. I’ve wanted to build an East Coast, channeled-style roadster, with Tony’s motor and Travis’ paint. We could build such a cool car, man. Maybe do like an old-style 303 0lds with a LaSalle transmission and a chrome banjo … something to really make it pop. That AMBR thing is due for an East Coast–style car anyhow.”
So here we are … with just a few things changed.
Bobby Hilton’s AMBR contender, owned by Ray Enos, Sacramento, California, is a 1930-1931 Model A roadster with a Brookville steel body on a seriously Z’d 1932 Ford frame. It started with elegant renderings by Eric Black (eBDCo) in Portland. But take a closer look. This car will fool you. The body has been treated to what Bobby calls an “anti-section,” meaning a 1-1/2-inch strip of steel has been discretely added all around the lower perimeter. So the body now has more depth, like a 1932 Ford, but it still retains that classic upright Model A tight shape and early style stance. The 18-inch wheels perfectly follow the rear wheelwell’s radius. Bobby calls it “a wannabe Deuce,” adding, “when you put a Model A body on 1932 ’rails, it looks squatty. We released it, kinda raised it up for a little more girth.” You know something’s been changed here, and you like the proportions, but just what’s different is not immediately apparent.
About that engine … it’s not an Olds Rocket as Bobby once imagined, it’s a Ross Racing Engines–built 294-cid (3.315×4.25 inches) ARDUN V-8. The block and ARDUN heads are from Don Ferguson, famous for his modern reinterpretation of the classic Zora ARkus-DUNtov overhead valve cylinder heads. Tony Lombardi finished the block externally and performed all the internal machine work. There are custom billet pistons and a custom flat-tappet camshaft. That super trick finned Scintilla magneto is from an airplane engine that’s been converted to HEI. “We left the fan off,” Bobby says, “so you can see it, but it doesn’t overheat anyway.”
There are no mufflers, not even tailpipes, and the sleek four-into-one headers exit just before the doors. “It’s a hot rod, man,” Bobby says, “you don’t need mufflers.” The ARDUN makes a deep throaty racket, and it sounds like a Bonneville racer.
The fuel injection system, with its eight individual housings and tall chromed stacks, was adapted from a 331-cid Chrysler Hemi mechanical setup, and meticulously converted to EFI with high-pressure injectors, to run electronically. There are no visible fuel rails or anything modern. All the ports are matched. Tony Lombardi says it dyno’d at 322 bhp and 340 lb-ft of torque. That’s impressive from a naturally aspirated “flathead.” The polished powerplant features a Centerforce clutch and it’s backed by a T5 TREMEC five-speed gearbox. An open driveline leads to a polished Winters quick-change rear with 1940 Ford axle bells. “That’s all Classic hot rod stuff,” Bobby adds. The front wires are 17-inch 1933-1934 Ford steel spoke wheels. The rears are 18-inch 1932 Ford wires, widened in the back, with 5.25s and 7.00s for a decent rubber rake.
Other mechanical niceties include a 5-inch handbuilt dropped axle, Model A crossmembers, a 1933-1934 Ford-like center X-member, 1935-1936 Ford trailing arms, a custom V’d spreader bar, Bobby’s own design cross steering, Schroeder-style, with a custom draglink, tubular shocks (“those old-style lever shocks are terrible for long drives,” Hilton says, and he knows from experience), and buggy springs with reversed eyes, front and rear. The framerails are kicked up in the rear and notched to clear the front spring. The hydraulic drum brakes are early Lincoln style by Brian Bass (Bass Kustom) in Dallas.
Rare old Arrow accessory headlights with a discrete fin are mounted on vintage stands. The rectangular taillights are 1948 Kaiser, just to stay period but be a little different. The aluminum instrument panel, by Hartman Machines and polished by Jeff Smith, is old style with eight custom gauges from Classic Instruments. The steering wheel is a thin, four-spoke item from a 1948 Ford COE truck. I’d never seen one of these wheels before but it fits this car’s theme to a T.
The classy interior, by Mike Lippincott, aka Mikey Seats, is handcrafted of dark contrasting leather and there’s a subtle divider that makes quasi-buckets out of the bench. Bobby fabricated the aluminum transmission cover. The bare floor has polished wood panels. The door panels sport old-style door pulls and polished inserts (again by Jeff Smith), all tastefully done to a very high level.
Acclaimed painter and pinstriper, Travis “Tuki” Hess (Kolor by Tuki) from Bucky’s Ltd., in Martinsburg, West Virginia, was responsible for that Hershey chocolate finish. It was painstakingly rubbed out over the Christmas holiday. I visited Tuki, he’s a consummate perfectionist, when the freshly painted body was in his spray booth and he was seriously pressed for time. “I was supposed to get this in September,” he muses, “but we’ll get ’er done,” and he did. Tuki and John Shank were responsible for the bodywork; everything is as smooth as a baby’s bottom. The finish is flawless and the gleaming milk chocolate hue, Porsche Cockney Brown, contrasted with ebony black wheels and painted running gear, and very little plating is beautifully understated, like the subtle pinstriping and outlining by Jennifer Thomas. “It’s a simplistic car,” Hilton says, “and we built it to stay within the budget.”
Like many AMBR projects, work continued at a frenetic pace, right to the end. The Model A body and 1932 chassis, wired and plumbed, was trailered to Ross Racing Engines, in Niles, Ohio, near Youngstown, where they were mated with the freshly dyno’d and tuned ARDUN. Last-minute details were all accomplished over four sleepless nights and days, and they loaded up in a snowstorm for the Banzai Run West. Driving straight to Pomona through a blizzard, alternating drivers, so each one got a little sleep, they made it to the judges’ preview, in the nick of time.
An exhausted but exhilarated Bobby Hilton says, “Our goal was to get there. I’ve never been to this show before and I’m excited to be here.” The owner, Ray Enos, saw the car for the first time at the show, he likes classy cars and this was everything he wanted. “He trusted us completely to build it … and he loves it.”
The 2019 AMBR competition was very tough, but the Hilton Model A was definitely a contender. Approving spectators flocked around the roadster all weekend, many of them recognizing that something was very different about the shape of this car, but they were unable to articulate just what that was. … Says Bobby, “This car’s a Model A that wants to be a 1932 roadster.”
On Sunday, the AMBR winner was George Poteet’s spectacular 1936 Ford roadster, built by Eric Peratt and his talented crew at Pinkee’s Rod Shop, in Windsor, Colorado. That didn’t phase the Hilton gang one bit.
“We wanted to learn the ropes,” Bobby said, and we’ll be back next year.” “This is a simplistic car and it speaks for itself. The first time I’d put the clutch in was when we drove up to the judges’ stand. I thought I was out of my mind to just drop everything and do this, but it was worth it. We met a lot of great people and we proved we can compete at this level.”
It’s worth the trip. SRM
