For a persuasive speech I'm doing for a communication class I decided to speak on the positive sides of procrastination. I'm not taking this too seriously (its only a 3min speech) but I was trying to find some sources (articles, journals) that supported this or gave the upsides to procrastination. Can anyone help me?

I've read articles about how being messy isn't always bad so I know there must be stuff about this out there.

With all the donations, (over one million pounds I believe) why is it necessary to sell wrist bands. Personally I would be using the donations to give them away free. I am sure more would be worn that way.
The same with T-shirts. Use the money, spend it on giving stuff away for max publicity, It is there to spend not to sit in a bank making interest.
Again please forgive me if I have got this all wrong.
Just thinking out aloud.

eg Germany actually gets more trade from the US than we do.

Not to mention they've avoided the Iraq quagmire and becoming Al Qaeda's top target outside the US.

The Great American Boycott was a one-day boycott of United States schools and businesses by immigrants, both legal and non-legal, of mostly Latin American origin that took place on May 1, 2006

Interesting, a bit like the "dodgy dossier" used to such great effect by the British authorities!

What will Bush and Blair be known for, other than Iraq?!

I have always thought that British justice had a very good level of fair play, and here is one case that bolsters my confidence in modern court justice. Despite what this man was doing in the UK or what his status was, the police or anyone else in a civil society cannot just go around shooting people regardless the circumstances. unfortunately the police in the U.S are vindicated far too often by their police departments and racist juries. Kudos for the juries/people of the UK in this case

i think its kind of funny/sad how if a white man says the "n" word its a big deal and everyones pissed off but if 2 black people are talking and they can the "n" word its ok and no one cares. its really not fair..and you know if he called a white person "cracker" no one would have cared at all...

not only that but he was talking to his son...not in public..so why shuld it matter? and why are they taping into his calls?

no one looks at all the good he has done for us...only the bad.
and it wasnt even that bad.

but i do agree no one needs to say the "n" word...black or white.

She's the queen mother of the militant left, protected and babied by the news and entertainment media, never asked a difficult question until Tim Russert nailed her in the last debate. She has a 50% unfavorable rating that is NOT getting better with time. That means she's unelectable.

Democrat party insiders have been nervous about her "coronation" as the Democrat presidential candidate in '08, and now that she was finally held accountable in the debates, she's been exposed.

Slick Willie can't help her, because she's a clod. The DNC and the loony left at moveon.org etc won't support her because she doesn't push their agenda.

Her shot is over, and the people are moving on.
