Know Your Sources

September 20, 2014

Top down searching and citing sourcesMost of us do know better than to plagiarize. We don’t take the work of others and pass it off as our own. That’s stealing. Plagiarism is unethical and entirely unfair to content producers. To protect against accusations of plagiarism, most bloggers make sure to cite their sources. That’s a good practice to adopt. However, a lot of people don’t seem to realise that citing wrong sources can be considered plagiarism!

Book Cover Culture #6: Wildlife

September 18, 2014

Wildlife - Wilder Sommer - Fiona WoodOriginally published in Australia last lear June, Wildlife hit the international arena this year — April in Germany and the past week in the USA. The German title, Wilder Sommer doesn’t deviate too much from the English titles. Translated it means “wild summer” which is pretty clear, in my opinion.

LOGO DESIGN LOVE by David Airey

September 17, 2014

LOGO DESIGN LOVE by David AireyLogo Design Love is a book that borrows the name of the author’s website, also Logo Design Love. When I picked up this book, I didn’t know that. I was looking for books on graphic design at the library, when Logo Design Love caught my eye. It’s specific to logos, which was something along the lines that I was looking for.

THE STRANGE AND BEAUTIFUL SORROWS OF AVA LAVENDER by Leslye Walton

September 15, 2014

THE STRANGE AND BEAUTIFUL SORROWS OF AVA LAVENDER by Leslye WaltonThe Strange and Beautiful Sorrows of Ava Lavender and I developed a love-hate relationship of sorts. The promises made in the prologue was wondrous and I was so excited to continue reading. By the time I reached the end I felt empty. I loved the style of writing adopted in the prologue. It captured my attention so vividly, I fully expected to fall in love with the rest of the story. Sadly, that didn’t happen.

Retrospect #37: September 14th

September 14, 2014

Banana chocolate ice creamSingle-ingredient banana ice cream is the best! It’s so easy to make without an once cream maker, so I’ve been experimenting with it. I especially like that it doesn’t require any addition of sugar. Plus, by making my own ice cream, I know there aren’t any preservatives or other ingredients that are questionable for health.
