Fonts are too often overlooked and this can prove to be a big mistake. The following is an excerpt from my book, "You're Hired!". See below for more information. If you are looking for employment, you should serious consider it.
=====================================================

Even Résumés Should Employ the Principle of Netiquette

Many job applicants do not equate sending a résumé with the need to use Netiquette. Keep in mind the need to balance items such as tone, fonts and content with your email and other forms of electronic communication. Do not let one form of expression suppress all of the others. These should be made complementary. Remember that a résumé should deliver upon all that is mentioned in the introductory email. If they are not balanced, the recipient might react negatively and lose the interest or enthusiasm that compelled him or her to read your email and open your résumé in the first place. 

Here are some basic Netiquette rules for the cohesion of your cover email and your résumé:

1.    Keep font styles and attributes (e.g., size, weight) identical.

2.    Have the same contact information.

3.    Avoid repetition of any words.

4.    Show the same tone and enthusiasm throughout your communication.

  Maintain the same formatting. Many recruiting managers will assume, even if    subconsciously, that you have a positive attitude when they see consistency. By maintaining consistency, it can be agreed that it may be assumed that you are organized and “stable.”

4 Ways to Prevent Your Kid From Becoming A Tech Addict From Netiquette IQ

4 Ways to Prevent Your Kid From Becoming A Tech Addict Posted: 10/09/2015 9:59 pm EDT Updated: 10/09/2015 10:59 pm EDT A few months ago, I was leading my therapy group for struggling college students; young people who feel socially isolated and alone. Some have dropped out of school, some white knuckled their way through only to graduate and half-heartedly look for work while living with their over-accommodating parents. While struggling to help them relate to each other, one young man became enraged at me. "You don't understand! You just don't get it! This 'emotional education' thing that you keep talking about, I never learned to do that. My computer was my babysitter, my friend, my playmate - I don't know how to relate. I never learned how." It was a moment of heartbreaking clarity. Technology without supervision is not healthy for any young person. When staring into a glowing screen replaces meaningful communication in a child's life, he or she will suffer mightily with intimacy in the future. Welcome to "Generation Screen" Can you believe that there was a time when people didn't spend hours of their day staring into glowing screens? Phones never left the house, television put itself to sleep at night, and computers were just fancy typewriters. Technology didn't come with you to the playground, school or on a family vacation. Sure, this talk makes me sound like a geezer, but everywhere you look, children are staring into cell phones screens, computer screens, tablets, ipads, etc. Probably by the time you finish reading this article, someone will have invented a new glowing screen for children to stare into. The real question is this: has technology improved our kids attunement and empathy with others or is it adding to their self-absorption and isolation? Tuned-in and Out of Touch Never before in history have kids had instant access to so much information. With endless data at their fingertips, kids can breeze through entire libraries with their thumbs, and even view earth from space. A tap or a click can deliver facts and statistics that would have taken hours to find in a library or books. While technology has expanded our knowledge of the world, advanced education and provided for medical breakthroughs, it is quickly becoming a number one source of conflict between parents and their children at home. Technology and Temperament Some kids don't fuss over technology. These kids tend to lead full lives filled with hobbies and numerous activities such as school clubs, social events, sports teams, band or music practice. To them, technology is just another pastime. For other kids, technology devours their lives. They can't put down or turn it off. These kids tend to be more isolated and anxious, have poor people skills, difficulty maintaining friendships or an unstable sense of self. For them, technology is just another way to avoid a frustrating world; a world that they have difficulty handling. By placing a glowing screen in front of their face, they can shut out contact and communication. Sadly, the more connected they feel to technology, the less connected they feel to the people around them. For example, the best summer camps don't allow any technology. That's because they know that the more connected kids are to technology, the less connected they will be to each other. If technology becomes your kid's primary activity, if your kid spends hours a day gaming or surfing the net instead of hanging out with friends or participating in school activities, be warned: you may have a budding tech addict in your home. Tech Addiction Many kids who visit my office spend unlimited hours each day tied to some form of technology, such as a cell phone, a tablet, or portable gaming device. They can't travel without it or put it down without a fight. In this way, technology starts to look a lot like addiction. Like any addiction, as dependency increases, personal functioning decreases. Kids become more impulsive, moody, and less empathic. As their hunger for more tech time grows, clashes with parents increase. Tech addicted kids are more likely to suffer: • Social isolation • Poor social skills • Unstable moods • Impulse problems • Sleep disorders • Low self-esteem The biggest problem with technology is simple: it doesn't turn itself off. Setting limits on unhealthy behaviors is a crucial part of good parenting. Taking the role of "guardian of technology" may make you unpopular with your kid, but it is key to preventing tech addiction tendencies. Tech Rules Here are some basic recommendations for parents who have a child obsessed with technology. Of course, every kid is different; what works for one child, may be a disaster for another. Consider this list a jumping off point for discussion. But be warned, the more dependent your kid becomes on technology, the more difficult it will be to wean him or her off it. 1. Tech Blackouts Set aside specific times at home when no one (parents included) uses technology. Cell phones, computers, ipads...everything is off. If you want your kid to be less tech addicted, you must lead the way. Tech-free time can be spent reading, talking, playing games, cooking, making art...anything creative or social will do. 2. Tech Hours Kids resist structure -- but fall apart without it. Technology needs limits. For instance, I often recommend that families establish tech hours; time for homework, gaming or surfing the Internet. Scheduling tech time will help to limit battles by setting clear guidelines. For instance, when it comes to gaming, many parents may allow thirty minutes a day during the school week and two hours a day on the weekends. 3. Tech Spaces When possible, keep all technology in a common space like the living room -- not in a child's bedroom. Establish communal places for tech time; try to avoid allowing your kid to disappear for hours behind a closed door. 4. Tech Limits There are plenty of on-line services that can filter out inappropriate or violent material. These services can also limit Internet access by scheduling times that Internet is available and times when it is not. One example of such a service is Net Nanny. Stop Tech Addiction Before it Starts The bottom line: parents must control technology or risk technology controlling their kids. Even starting a dialogue with your kid about the effects of over-dependence on technology is a step in the right direction. Find the right balance for technology use in your home and eliminate tech addiction in your kid's future.

Top 20 Figures of Speech

From thoughtco.com

by Richard Nordquist

Updated May 02, 2017

A figure of speech is a rhetorical device that achieves a special effect by using words in distinctive ways. Though there are hundreds of figures of speech, here we'll focus on just 20 of the most common figures.

You will probably remember many of these terms from your English classes. Figurative language is often associated with literature—and with poetry in particular. But the fact is, whether we're conscious of it or not, we use figures of speech every day in our own writing and conversations.

Top Figures of Speech

For example, common expressions such as "falling in love," "racking our brains," "hitting a sales target," and "climbing the ladder of success" are all metaphors—the most pervasive figure of all. Likewise, we rely on similes when making explicit comparisons ("light as a feather") and hyperbole to emphasize a point ("I'm starving!").

Using original figures of speech in our writing is a way to convey meanings in fresh, unexpected ways. Figures can help our readers understand and stay interested in what we have to say. For advice on creating figures of speech, see Using Similes and Metaphors to Enrich Our Writing.

The Top 20 Figures of Speech
 

1. Alliteration
   The repetition of an initial consonant sound.
    
2. Anaphora
   The repetition of the same word or phrase at the beginning of successive clauses or verses. (Contrast with epiphora and epistrophe.)
    
3. Antithesis
   The juxtaposition of contrasting ideas in balanced phrases.
    

1. Apostrophe
   Breaking off discourse to address some absent person or thing, some abstract quality, an inanimate object, or a nonexistent character.
    
2. Assonance
   Identity or similarity in sound between internal vowels in neighboring words.
    
3. Chiasmus
   A verbal pattern in which the second half of an expression is balanced against the first but with the parts reversed.
    

1. Euphemism
   The substitution of an inoffensive term for one considered offensively explicit.
    
2. Hyperbole
   An extravagant statement; the use of exaggerated terms for the purpose of emphasis or heightened effect.
    
3. Irony
   The use of words to convey the opposite of their literal meaning. Also, a statement or situation where the meaning is contradicted by the appearance or presentation of the idea.
    
4. Litotes
   A figure of speech consisting of an understatement in which an affirmative is expressed by negating its opposite.
    
5. Metaphor
   An implied comparison between two unlike things that actually have something important in common.
    
6. Metonymy
   A figure of speech in which one word or phrase is substituted for another with which it's closely associated; also, the rhetorical strategy of describing something indirectly by referring to things around it.
    
7. Onomatopoeia
   The use of words that imitate the sounds associated with the objects or actions they refer to.
    
8. Oxymoron
   A figure of speech in which incongruous or contradictory terms appear side by side.
    
9. Paradox
   A statement that appears to contradict itself.
    
10. Personification
    A figure of speech in which an inanimate object or abstraction is endowed with human qualities or abilities.

1. Pun
   A play on words, sometimes on different senses of the same word and sometimes on the similar sense or sound of different words.
    
2. Simile
   A stated comparison (usually formed with "like" or "as") between two fundamentally dissimilar things that have certain qualities in common.
    
3. Synecdoche
   A figure of speech in which a part is used to represent the whole (for example, ABCs for alphabet) or the whole for a part ("England won the World Cup in 1966").
    

Understatement
A figure of speech in which a writer or speaker deliberately makes a situation seem less important or serious than it is.++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
