  8. Worth trying harder? • I am forwarding my marriage certificate and six children. I had seven, but one died, which was baptized on a half sheet of paper. • Mrs. Jones has not had any clothes for a year and has been visited regularly by the clergy.

  9. I am forwarding my marriage certificate and three children, one of which is a mistake as you can see. • I want my money as quick as I can get it. I’ve been in bed with the doctor for two weeks and he doesn’t do any good. If things don’t improve, I will have to send for another doctor.

  10. Say what you mean! • My husband got his project cut off two weeks ago, and I haven’t had any relief since.

  15. Response • I talked with Not Yet Revealed today.  Yes, I attempted to process her application; however, just for the record, she did not have all her Praxis II exam test scores sent to us. (That sort of negates her "with no reason to not have already done so" parenthetical comment.)  She is getting those scores to me ASAP so that I can finalize her application. 

  16. Response • I will say this regarding her signature quote: She may possess the supreme art of teaching, for she certainly awakened the joy in creative expression and knowledge within me. • Michael

A Real Example The Romulus wireless network has been replaced by “SkyNet for Guests”. … If you need assistance creating an account or connecting to “SkyNet for Guests”, please contact the Help Desk. …When trying to connect to “SkyNet for Guests”, you will initially be prompted to enter the WPA2 password. Once they’re connected, they should open a web browser and see the same captive portal page that was formerly used by Romulus. After logging into the captive portal page, guests will have web access. If a Guest needs assistance connecting, please contact the Help Desk.

  34. Professional Example • What you can expect at the end [of your career at UTM] is in the definition of the words "seeking teacher certification": You will get a teacher's license. • The courses were waived because you have met the general education requirements for one degree. You are NOT seeking another degree; therefore, general education courses are not important. You are "seeking teacher certification"; therefore, you must take/complete the coursework that matters for "seeking teacher certification."

  37. Well, Jessica, I got a new iPhone 5. Guess what I figured out? I have discovered a new way to use all those iPads in our office. When I discovered talking text, I also discovered that it would punctuate as I told it to. Furthermore, it also knows the difference between your/you're when I say you're welcome. Ain't this going to be fun! This will be a neat way to teach teachers to teach grammar. It will also be a neat way to teach editing and revision. Yes, every word and punctuation of the above text was dictated into my microphone on my iPhone 5. I love it!
