+====Welcome====
+It's possible to create simple games with the time.h header file.
+====Time for fun====
+Students from college campuses across America are familure with the game "Power Hour."(Google is your friend)
+The game entails preforming a certain action every minute for one hour. Using C programming, this task can be automated. Automation in this instance allows people more time to socialize by taking away the time needed to moderate the game.
+====code====
+<code c>
+#include <stdio.h>
+#include <time.h>
+int main()
+{
+        printf("Begin power hour!\n\a");
+        int i;
+        for(i = 0; i <= 60; ++i)
+        {
+                printf("Minute Number: %d\n",i);
+                sleep(60);
+                printf("Drink!\n\a");
+        }
+        printf("Congratulations, you've survived power hour!");
+        return 0;
+}
+</code>
+Compilation and execution:
+<cli>
+andrew ~/src $ gcc powerhour.c -o powerhour
+andrew ~/src $ ./powerhour
+Begin power hour!
+Minute Number: 0
+Drink!
+Minute Number: 1
+Drink!
+Minute Number: 2
+(etc)
+</cli>
+====Final thoughts====
+Programming is about more than solving mundane problems; it's also about improving peoples quality of life through simplex enhancements.
