Lightscape: in Review
What is it about lights we love so much? Ultrasonic oil diffusers light up, but it does not add to the ability to diffuse oil. It is merely for ambiance. In a day and age where very few houses in developed areas are without electricity, we spend an awful lot of money on unnecessary candles and fancy accessories. There are entire streets festooned in lights for months every year for Christmas. I’m not sure about other countries, but we Aussies love our Chrissy light completions. And what party is complete without party lights? A friend of mine is starting a business designing and supplying custom neon lights to the public rather than just other businesses (there was a hole in the market, she and her husband plan to rectify it).

What's In A Name? The Enduring Language Of Bias
The language we use to speak and to write is not accidental. It is the essence of our identity - a powerful indicator of who we are, and what we stand for. Language defines us, as it shows how we see ourselves. We will only ever use words we are completely comfortable with; the words that come easily to us without thinking; the ones our family and friends use; the words that tell where we are coming from and where we are going. Thus the language we use identifies us and our mindsets, revealing what we value and care about by the specific words we choose to utter.

A Critique Of Vocal's Search
Vocal's Search facilities often don't return what we are looking for, but it's very powerful in what it does. It searches within text as well as titles, but if you know who wrote the story you are after add their name to the search and you usually find your story.
