Reminders and a Visual

This will be the last blog post of the week; they will resume on Monday, June 24.

REMINDER 1: your first paper is due on Monday. If you have any questions about the paper, please email in a timely way; I'll be checking email at least once a day this weekend, and plan to check it Sunday early in the evening. If you ask a question by (let's pick a time) 7:00 p.m. on Sunday, you'll get an answer before the paper is due.

REMINDER 2: the first test is on Tuesday. We will spend a little time on test preparation during Monday's class. You may start preparing your note page (one 8.5 X 11 page, both sides, and please do not photocopy handouts--you may rewrite or retype anything on one of the handouts but may not shrink and compile them to make a note page, which is what one creative student did years ago which spurred me to establish a rule; that's one (not so good) way to live forever in an instructor's memory).

Now, a funny and not-funny visual. Different regions of the country face different challenges; states face different natural disasters. This diversity of trouble definitely has an impact on both federal spending for disasters and state government preparedness.
