In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
assiduous \uh-SIJ-oo-us\, adjective:
1. 1. Constant in application or attention; devoted; attentive; unremitting.
2. Performed with constant diligence or attention; unremitting; persistent; as, assiduous labor.
"I can scarcely find time to write you even a Love Letter," Samuel Adams, an assiduous committeeman, wrote his wife in early 1776.
--Pauline Maier, American Scripture: Making the Declaration of Independence Etymology: Assiduous is from Latin assiduus, constantly sitting near, hence diligent, persistent, from assidere, to attend to, from ad-, to + sedere, to sit.

The assiduous promotion of the Widder Carnahan's campaign will hopefully be for naught.

Looks as though you are second at the door, VRWCmember is first, and, alas, I came third.
