...When I was in grade 4, one of my loved ones passed away. He was one of my closest relatives, my uncle. He was taken from us very early and swiftly. All of us were so sad and we really felt the loss of his passing. He has a good paying job as an engineer in the Bureau of Fire. He and my father are first cousins but they treat each other just like brothers because they lived and grow up together in lola’s house. My sisters and I considered him as our second father because he cares for us too. He is a very good person. It was four years ago when he passed away. He joke around at times at we always laughed at that. He’s the kind of person that makes you laugh and smile even after a very long and tired day, like he wants to see the smiles and laughs of the person in his surroundings and the ones he loved. Until now, we still remember him as our tatay and we really missed him so much. It was hard for us because he’s the person that makes you feel happy out of the blue, like he’s the life of the party. Even though he’s not here on earth with us anymore but I know he’s just watching us from above and I still can feel his presence especially if I’m with one of his children. He will always stay in our hearts and mind forever. Whenever someone open up the topic with him as the subject, instead of remembering our mourning, we just think the happy memories we’ve made when he was still here and hope for the best and stay strong. Reflection: Experiencing light after shadow is hard to...

Social Psychology: study of how people think about, relate to, and influence each other * How we perceive ourselves and others * How we function in groups * Why we hurt or help people * Why we fall in love * Why we discriminate against certain people Our biases 1) We tend to underestimate the power of a situation in determining our behavior (fundamental attribution bias) 2) A great deal of mental thought and behavior occurs automatically and without conscious awareness or intent.

...Welding join together (metal parts) by heating the surfaces to the point of melting with a blowpipe, electric arc, or other means, and uniting them by pressing, hammering, etc. ------------------------------------------------- Welding electrodes In arc welding an electrode is used to conduct current through a workpiece to fuse two pieces together. Depending upon the process, the electrode is either consumable, in the case of gas metal arc welding or shielded metal arc welding, or non-consumable, such as in gas tungsten arc welding. For a direct current system the weld rod or stick may be a cathode for a filling type weld or an anode for other welding processes. For an alternating current arc welder the welding electrode would not be considered an anode or cathode. The Four Positions from a Closer View Now that we have some background about the two basic types of welding, it’s time to take a closer look at those positions. Flat In a flat position, a weld is performed along largely a horizontal access and from above the joint. It is the easiest type of weld to perform. Horizontal In the horizontal position, the weld’s axis is the horizontal plane. Horizontal welding is often used for fillet or groove welds. Vertical With a vertical position, the weld’s axis is largely in a vertical or upright position. It is typically more complicated to perform than flat and horizontal welding. Overhead In this the most complicated of the four, welding is performed from the underside...

...Jamea Cheadle 9/24/13 World Religion 17 I Am Food! “Oh, the wonder of joy! I am the food of life, and I am he who eats the food of life: I am the two in ONE. I am the first-born of the world of truth, born before the gods, born in the center of immortality. He who gives me is my salvation. I am that food which eats the eater of food.” This quote was really powerful to me. This quote has a more powerful meaning about itself besides the physical meaning of food and the taste of it. I am a Christian and throughout this semester I learned a lot about Hinduisms religion. The two religions have a lot in common. I really don’t know the true meaning about this quote In Hinduism perspective and I don’t want to falsely state anything wrong, but I can relate to it in Christians perspective. I remember one day talking about how food could have a huge impact on my life. As a child I sat in church a couple of times, and doing the service they passed around a small little shot cup of juice, so I thought it was, and a piece of bread. I was excited about the juice and piece of bread because I seem to always hungry in church. I never really knew the true meaning of why they did this, so one I asked why do we eat a small piece of bread and some juice this isn’t going to fill me up. My mom laughing and began explaining the reason why we eat and drink this. She explains this food of life. This food is Jesus’s body. Jesus had a piece of bread and as he said the blessing he broke pieces of the...

...Summary All together theirs had been a lot of lobster that has been caught, for basically no apparent reason. Most of the lobstermen that come through have habits of throwing back the female lobsters that are willing to produce the young lobsters in the future. All of this fish that has been caught has reached a record high of 56.7 million pounds. Some think that since the lobsters have been fished so much they have increased. The traps that they have are designed so that the smaller lobsters can escape and grow on their own. Most of the fishermen have told others not to use the traps, so therefore the lobster population began to stay high. Questions 1. How has the catch of lobsters changed over the past 15 years in the state of Maine? 2. What does Walter Day suggest needs to be done to keep the industry flourishing? 3. What are shorts? 4. What are eggers? 5. How are females carrying eggs marked? Why do they do this? 6. Why are oversized lobsters also thrown back? 7. Besides following the rules closely, what are some other ways the lobstermen of Vinalhaven protect the lobster crop? 8. Besides the lobstermen's efforts, what are other factors that may be influencing the numbers of lobsters? 9. There are signs that the numbers may be dropping. What are the plans to try and keeps the industry booming? 10. Would you become a lobsterman if you could? Why or why not? Answers 1. The amount of lobster has increased around 20 million pounds...

...To Thine Own Self Be True By Dong L., Irvine, CA “Do you notice how Rachael always kisses-up to her teachers? It’s disgusting. She’s so fake.” Ten minutes later… “Heyy Rachael! Haven’t talked to you in a while. Wanna go to Starbucks after school?” Fake – this is probably the most commonly criticized and yet most widely adopted trait in everyday life. Everyone openly condemns it, but consciously or not, everyone exhibits it. Consider these daily examples: that convincing smile put on just for a teacher or boss, that superficial compliment uttered to flatter and please, and that boastful exaggeration intended to impress. At this point you might be thinking “I’m not like this. I’m not fake like everyone else.” Really? You’re not? Take a step back and contemplate whether you have altered the way you act/dress/talk over the past few years. And if so, why? Is it because you think Ugg boots are simply gorgeous or because they are the vogue these days? Is it because you are genuinely interested in latest gossip or because high school life has made you attuned to it? And do those expressions on your face always reflect real emotions or are they oftentimes merely a disguise? It seems that while most people understand the importance of individuality, the “individual” they claim to be is really just a well-garnished, phony mask. Therefore this is the pivotal message that is both universally professed and universally ignored: don’t be fake. How hard could that be? In theory...

Gigising pa ba sya? Would there still be a chance for her to see my list? Sana, sana. "What are you doing?" nagtatakang tanong nung nurse pagkakita sa ginagawa ko. "I want her to see it when she wakes up. It's not illegal, right?" "Of course not, it's actually sweet." nakangiting sabi nung nurse nung makita yung kabuuan ng ginagawa ko. Kahit ako napangiti lalo na ng maalala ko kung paano ko nabuo ang lahat ng 'to... *Kring!* "Pwew!" sakto! Pagka-bell nasa classroom na agad ako, kala ko malalate na ako. Grabe, daig ko pa ang aso kung tumakbo kanina eh. Tinanghali kasi ako ng gising kaya ayun, madali to the max. Hmm... At dahil late ako, wala na akong mauupuan sa likod, gusto ko kasi lagi umupo sa likod eh. Haay, pag gantong late ka asahang ang bakanteng upuan lang ay ang nasa unahan. Alam nyo naman ang mga estudyante may front seat phobia. Dumiretso na ako sa katangi tanging upuan na bakante sa unahan pero nung papunta na ako dun natigilan ako ng makita ko kung sino ang magiging seatmate ko... Patay! That girl! "Hi!" "Ah.. hi.." sabay upo ko na agad without...

...Unlucky Cupid ➶ Prologue ★★★ She is smart, HE's intelligent. She's gorgeous, HE's sizzling hot. She's popular, HE has huge resemblance to a world-wide known teen-age superstar. She's snob but somehow nice, while HE is the gentleman every girl will die for. Will rivalry cross their fate? Or Love will play their lives? He was always mistaken for the popular singer, whom She really hates. Will Her high school life end up just like those typical one's? Or will He make the best or even worst out of it? ➶ Chapter 1: Interference /KATHERINE'S PERSPECTIVE First day of school, sigh. Simula na naman ito ng hectic schedule, little time, less fun, and whatsoever bothersome school works. Pero first day of school sometimes is not that bad, kasi usually pupunta ka lang sa unahan at magpapakilala. Orientations, introductions, chit-chats - yeah, that's pretty much it. Kaya on second thought, I'm going to enjoy this first day lalo na dahil makikita ko na ang aking mga hmm, how should I describe my friends? Loud speaker-like? Loquacious? Nah, pero siguro ganyan nga sila - love ko naman. Ew, korni ko.I guess back na kami sa routine namin. Si Lindsay, medyo brat, madaldal (as I've said), okay naman pag dating sa academics, mabait, at sabihin na nating medyo war-freak. Di sya close sa parents nya gawa ng wala lagi sa bahay nila. So ayun, siguro yun ang dahilan kung bakit parang naging "Play Girl" itong si Lindsay, in other way. Hindi naman talaga. Pero all in all she's one of a kind...
