This document summarizes research on gender differences in blogs and computer-mediated communication. It finds that:
1) Women are more likely to write personal diary blogs focusing on personal reflections, while men are more likely to write filter blogs focusing on external events.
2) Discourse analysis finds that women's blog entries and comments tend to be more personal, emotional, and focus on relationships, while men's tend to be more factual, assertive, and focus on displaying knowledge.
3) However, when accounting for blog genre, few linguistic gender differences are found; the genres themselves are gendered. This helps explain disparities in prior research not accounting for genre.Drilling down: A look at the digital ways bloggers tell their personal stories

Purposeful sampling involves strategically selecting a limited number of informants to provide optimal insights into an issue that is not well understood.

The document summarizes research on the audiences envisioned for adolescent diary weblogs (blogs). It finds that over one-third of bloggers are adolescents. Adolescent blogs differ from paper diaries in that they are not always intended for personal use and may not be private.

Vitamin and nutritional deficiency occurs when the body does not receive enough essential nutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, needed for proper functioning. This can lead to various health problems, including weakened immunity, stunted growth, fatigue, poor wound healing, cognitive issues, and increased susceptibility to infections and diseases. Long-term deficiencies can cause serious and sometimes irreversible health complications.ECONOMICS, DISASTER MANAGEMENT, ROAD SAFETY - STUDY MATERIAL [10TH]

The story revolves around a college student who despairs not having a red rose as a condition for dancing with the girl he loves. The nightingale hears his complaint and offers to create the red rose at the cost of his life. He sang a love song all night with his chest stuck to the thorns of the rose tree. Finally, the red rose grew, but his sacrifice was in vain. The girl rejected the flower because it didnt match her outfit and preferred a jewellery gift. The student threw the flower on the street and returned to studying philosophyM&A5 Q1 1 differentiate evolving early Philippine conventional and contempora...

Teaching Hurricane Katrina
- 1. Teaching Hurricane Katrina Lois Ann Scheidt AOIR Conference Presentation October 8, 2005
- 2. The genus of the idea Overheard comments like the following said on campus: Well if they are stupid enough to stay then they desire what they get. Im just a student I cant help I dont have money. Gosh Im so glad I dont live anywhere where anything like this could happen.
- 3. Tying the disaster into students lives
- 4. New Madrid Fault Last quake in 1811 Estimated intensity 7.5 or 8.0 Expected at any time Damage zones likely to extend from Oklahoma to Indiana. Estimates say that 2/3 of Memphis could be destroyed.
- 5. In class activity Individual and then as a Group of the Whole
- 6. What would you do? Geologists have found a way to accurately predict earthquakes 24 hours in advance. (Dont we wish.) List a minimum of 5 things you would do before the predicted time of the local earthquake. You have 5 minutes to make your list.
- 7. What would that do? Roughly 10% said they would not leave their homes. Reasons included Unless my house is going to be destroyed specifically Im staying. The roads will be too busy so Im staying home rather than being caught out in the open. Earthquakes dont last that long so why leave?
- 8. Those that said they would go Realized very quickly, as our to-do list grew, that there was no way to get everything done before such a deadline. If they did try to do everything on their lists they would be caught at home and unable to leave. Better to just go and pickup the pieces afterward.
- 9. As Informaticists What Responsibilities Do We Have in a Time of Disaster? How can we help?
- 10. Specifically Bio Informatics Chemical Informatics Health Informatics Medical Professional Human Computer Interaction New Media Social Informatics Any others?
- 11. Lab Assignment Volunteer to assist Hurricane Katrina refugees and survivors. OR Review newspapers and news magazines (hardcopy or online) for three stories then write a short paper showing how your current or future informatics skills could help resolve the problems discussed in the articles.
- 12. Lab results 46 students in the class 36 completed the lab assignment 39% volunteered 61% chose the paper option Several commented that they had not thought about how they could use their skills to help others.
