AMP Grade 10 - The infrastructure of a region

The infrastructure of a region is made up of all the systems that allow goods and services to be delivered to
different parts of the country. Transportation systems are part of the infrastructure, and a well-maintained road
and railway network is of great importance in the development of economic activities in ac country. The transporting of perishable products such as milk, cheese, broilers, vegetables and fruit all depend on good
roads an railways so that they can be speedily delivered before they spoil. (This is why you should keep your
municipality accountable for your tax-money spent on roads and railways if you are a farmer). Cooling facilities
and suitable containers are also needed.

Using the Sketchpad

awareNet now has a sketchpad! This means that you can edit, draw on or add text to images - directly in the browser! Try it out: visit any image gallery ('Pictures', above), choose a picture and follow the [scribble on this] link underneath:


Note: This feature works with Firefox, Google Chrome and all other modern browsers. It does not work with all versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer - if you don't get the link to scribble on images, this is why. We recommend using Firefox to get the most from awareNet.

Me, I'm going to use this picture of Nick Carter from the Backstreet Boys. Because he's a dreamboat:


Following the link brings us to the sketchpad app:


We can then use the drawing tools to edit the image just the way we want it:


There. Much better. All that remains is to save our changes back to the gallery. Look for the blue save button on the toolbar at the top:


Saving the image can take a few minutes if you're on a slow internet connection: it does work - just wait for it to do its thing. Once complete you should land in a new image gallery called 'My Sketches'. Your picture is ready to insert into blog posts, projects, forum replies and so on. Tag it with a few sensible keywords so that you and others can find it again later.


You can then search for these tags when you want to add the image to something, perhaps a comment on a friend's profile:


That's it! Any questions, drop them in the comments.

These Bruises
We do not talk about them, these bruises: the ink stains on my fingers, or the marks she left on my neck.  You do not ask me about those photographs: the smiles that remember caresses, the averted-gaze-embraces.  But I wear them – the memories and the marks – and I think you know tha...

It is said that it is important for a person to know his or her own past in order to be able to make proper plans for his/her future. Knowing oneself contributes to a positive self esteem. A...
