Mainly the project planning and coordinating side of things, I haven't been in front of a class in about 10 years, so I'm glad I don't have to go straight back into that.

Business training, software and soft skills.
sounds interesting! not much of a techno-geek...don't find software interesting at all...soft skills? as in "soft touch" with the men...lol :)
What Judy said. Also, it's not on the exact shelf. I checked when she first made her choice.
oh ok, I'll deduct a point Vi. Thanks for letting me know. I also noticed you've amended the team progress post, thank you!

lol, no, more like communication skills, time management, negotiation skills, leadership workshops, that kind of thing. I guess you'd say softskills are things that might help you do your job better but are harder to measure the progress / productivity for. Not sure if they use the same terminology in the U.S. Could be a local term, I really don't know.
And no, no touching men allowed, lol!!

Yep, I went through them. Sorry about the misleading post. Next time I'll double check. Thank you!CaroB wrote: "oh ok, I'll deduct a point Vi. Thanks for letting me know. I also noticed you've amended the team progress post, thank you!"

If I didn't know any better, I'd think you all are rather impatient! :D
Imapatient???Us??Not at all !I just want to know what not to read today and tomorrow !!

They say patience is a virtue, Miss Catherine.

When I click on the lyrics link to Thong Song it just brings me to the lyric website and not that actual song's lyrics.

MMMMMMMM and it worked. I am now to distracted to try to find books to match songs, I'm going to have to go find a sweet treat from the kitchen.

Judy, we had decided no to anthologies because they give you so many options it almost seems unfair. Let's say there are 3 stories in the book, you would potentially have 3 plots to choose from, 3 settings, 3 lots of names, 3 titles etc.... If we decided that only one story from the astrology would count, the mods run into a few problems there too. How can we ensure you've read the whole book so you meet the page requirement? Most anthologies have very little plot summary info on the book page in Goodreads, so it would be harder for us to moderate. So, short answer is no to anthologies, sorry.
Can you tell I'm on my phone again? No idea why it put astrology!
lol don't know why I found that so funny but I do. I read to astrology and then stopped to allow my brain time to process. After a second I realized the mistake was not mine and got what you were trying to say anyway CaroB. I've done the exact same thing so many times. I can't talk and type/write at the same time. Either I say the word I'm writing or write the word I'm saying.
Can we use the full name of the singers? They way they are it's impossible to link anything to them .Adele:Adele Laurie Blue Adkins
Well, Lady Gaga might be able to be used if we can use titles as part of the name like for instance if the heroine was called Lady Edith Crawley. She would be called Lady Edith by most people except friends and family.
Based on these linesBut there's a side to you
That I never knew, never knew
Is a plot that revolves around revealing a secret acceptable?
"No secret stays hidden forever."

Definitely ShoSho!
I noticed that the shelf link is to a listopia rather than a shelf. Does the book have to be from this list (which is pretty short) or can it be from the Love Triangle Shelf?
What are the rules about the song video. I assumed that it had to be the official video and other versions of the song video done by other people wouldn't be accepted.
Nikita, the video link can only be the one linked to on Mr Elf's post. I don't know about it having to me the "official" one necessarily, but it definitely has to be one done by the artist.
Holy cow!!! I see what you mean!!! How on earth did us mods miss that!!! Crapola, let me check with the mods what we're going to do about that. Thanks for pointing it out Nikita. If we decide to take the video out of it, that's going to make some changes to our cheat sheet, and to what links we'll accept. Like I said, let me check with nick and the ladies what we're going to decide on that one.
The one that Mr Elf has linked wasn't done by the artist. It doesn't have Adele in it but a lookalike.
I didn't even notice, this is the first time i've seen this video.
Nikita wrote: "The one that Mr Elf has linked wasn't done by the artist. It doesn't have Adele in it but a lookalike."Just realised. Pretty sure none of us mods were aware of that one. Myself or one of the other mods will get back to you all ASAP about the video links. That's going to affect the shelf, cover link, setting and some plot links too.
Crapitty crap crap.
Sorry ladies!!!
