Southern Connecticut State University will be having the Spring Concert on April 18, 2020. The main performers will be Las Cafeteras, and they will be performing their hit song “La Bamba Rebelde.” The concert will be at College Street Music Hall in downtown New Haven. The first 100 Southern Students to arrive will receive a raffle ticket to go back stage and meet the band. The doors open at 7:30 p.m. and concert begins at 8. Let’s show Las Cafeteras some amor (love). Las Cafeteras are from East Los Angeles, California and have been making music together since 2005. Find out more information on their Twitter.

While looking up data sets, I found interesting facts about each of the five countries I chose. All of these facts were found on https://www.cia.gov/index.html.

United States- 82.7% of its total population is urban population.

Poland- Just because you are born in Poland, that doesn’t make you a citizen. Both parents must be citizens of Poland.

Japan- Japan’s size is smaller than the state of California.

Mexico- 95.4% of the population is literate.

Canada- 89.8% of their population uses the Internet.

Facial recognition is a growing phenomenon. Now, all you need to do is look at your phone in order to unlock it… Or maybe look into your friends to unlock theirs. Facial recognition could make using your phone more efficient, or is it just a new way of the government accessing your face? Many people have mixed views on the topic but overall, our interviewees all agreed that this technology has only touched the surface of its capabilities. The evolution of technology is unfolding right before our eyes.

I recorded a few friends and asked them their opinions on facial recognition technology. We talked about the basics, and got into personal stories about their mishaps with facial recognition. Their answers all varied, either because they have experience with facial recognition or because they have no experience at all. Each interviewee was asked 9 questions about current, past and future occurrences. While listening, no one ever said it worked 100% of the time even though their faces remain the same. To find out, see what these opinionated students had to say.

This is an example post, originally published as part of Blogging University. Enroll in one of our ten programs, and start your blog right.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.

Why do this?

• Because it gives new readers context. What are you about? Why should they read your blog?
• Because it will help you focus you own ideas about your blog and what you’d like to do with it.

The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.

To help you get started, here are a few questions:

• Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
• What topics do you think you’ll write about?
• Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
• If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?

You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.

Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.

When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
