...When most people go to college they think of what major would be the most interesting, and most exciting. However there are a few brave souls who want to be bored out of their mind but learn the language of business. For those few the major of accounting calls to them. Those men and women who choose accounting as their major will spend many semesters trying to figure out what the hell the professors are talking about when they go into managing and valuing inventories for companies. This one area of accounting is one of the most important parts to understand, because of the vast amounts of money companies have raped up in inventories. So sit back and get ready to be bored because we are entering the world of accounting. Inventories are asset items held for sale in the ordinary course of business or good that will be used or consumed in the production of goods to be sold. That sounds very interesting doesn’t it? Well let’s think about that for a second. Companies like Wal-Mart have billions of dollars put into inventories and they need to make sure that it is properly accounted for so they do not become the next ENRON of the world. Wal-Mart gets their inventory in a ready to sell state. That means no extra cost goes into getting it ready to put on the shelf. So when a Wal-Mart accountant takes in invoices of merchandise purchased the price Wal-Mart paid was the amount that goes into their inventory account. However for companies that are manufacturing business, like Boeing...

...of the Christ, In the name of the I AM that I AM, I call forth and invoke the full power and the full gathered momentum of the Flame of Unity. I ask that this action be applied to the entire planet and all who live there on. I AM calling for the Unity Flame to consume completely, totally and utterly any and all misuses of consciousnesses in any way, but especially those that are generated, by virtue of claiming that there are differences between people, between conditions; and seeing them instead as all coming from the same wonderful source, and one day to return to that same wonderful fountain of light and love, peace and power.

Amen INVOCATION TO END SUPRESSION OF WOMEN IN THE MIDDLE EAST Oh Great and Holy Mother of us all, Divine One, Who holds us all, not only in the palm of Her hand, but the softest place in Her heart. I come to You this day, entreating and invoking Your direct aide and assistance in ending something on earth, which I find to be offensive and very painful to You. Oh Dear Mother, won’t You help us to overturn this terrible custom of suppression of Your own daughters, especially in the area of the Middle East, where barbaric customs are still continuing till this day. Oh Dear One, I need not remind You of these things, for You are She, who is feeling every one of them directly on Your own body. So I only want to let you know that I am here as Your daughter (and son if...

... Do one thing at a time #16 Doing one thing at a time is not a very good skill for me. On a scale from one to ten and one being the worst I would have to say that I am at a two. For me that means I have no clue what that even means any more now that I have children. I have three children, go to school and work two jobs. Don’t get me wrong I would love to be able to only do one thing at a time but it seems to be impossible with what all I have to deal with and do in a days’ time. With that being said if I ever wanted to do one thing at a time I would have to learn how to do it all over again and get out of the mindset that I need to get everything done and get it done right away. I am willing to try to learn it all over again but chances are I will have to practice when the kids are not home so I do not get distracted. The other thing is I need to not watch tv when I am doing other tasks or even doing homework. This would be the biggest problem for me is always having the tv on where ever I am at. * Switching between tasks takes time even if we are not aware that it does and what our minds are required to do (page 75). It also says in some cases multitasking can be very dangerous (page 76). Chances are you can and will get more done and be safer if you just focus on one task at a time (page 76). It says in the book it would be a very good skill for me to learn if I have small children (page 76) which I do have one small child. She is a one year old. Doing one thing...

...Premarital Counseling Pre-Counseling Questionnaire To my new friends: ! You have received this questionnaire because you have asked me to perform your premarital counseling (and perhaps your wedding as well), and because I want to offer you the best premarital counseling that I am able to offer. ! I realize that I do not know you well— not yet! I trust that during counseling I will get to know you much better. However, for me to counsel you well from the start, I need to ask about who you both are, what your backgrounds are, what work is like for you, what your family was like growing up, and other things about you and your past. Many of these questions are very personal; in fact, some of them may touch on things that you have not yet spoken about openly even with your fiancé. ! Please trust that your completed questionnaire will not be shared with anyone else; I will not use this information against you; and I am not looking for ways to judge you or make you feel awkward or ashamed. And please also trust that I, and many who are wiser than I am, have concluded that these topics are very important factors in how healthy your marriage will be. I simply want to work with you to lay the foundations for the healthiest marriage possible. ! ! ! ! ! !

...“Identity Essay” “Who am I?” I am Ashley. I am what I like and dislike. I am what I believe in. I am my choices and experiences. I am what I do. I am where I live. I am who others have made me to be and I am who I have chosen to be. Most people do not consider all of the different ways they can be identified. There are countless different things I would use to describe myself and taking this course has added numerous more descriptors to my identity. The widely accepted definition of culture from Devito does a wonderful job including the things I would use to define my culture. The definition states: “Culture is a relatively specialized lifestyle of a group of people (values, beliefs, artifacts, behaviors, ways of communicating)”. Those are all examples of different aspects of my life that I would use to describe myself. For me, my values and beliefs are a strong sense of who I am. I am also very openly supportive of my values and beliefs. I am not afraid to inform people about how I feel about an issue, whether it is politics or something in athletics. If there is something that I strongly support or I am strongly against people know. I feel that many other people would use my values and beliefs to describe me as well since I make them so known. Co-cultures do a brilliant job of helping to identify one’s culture. They each describe a different part of one’s identity and combine to form each person as a whole. I can define myself by using several different...

...I am a teenager. I am ignorant, illiterate and irresponsible. I lie, cheat, steal and hate for no apparent reason. I am rude, inconsiderate and, to all appearances, completely lost. I have never known failure, loss or despair. I never talk to my parents about my life, and would never suffer being seen with them in public. I don't know the value of a dollar and am under the impression that money is cleverly disguised as foliage. I drive 90 miles an hour and cause wrecks, discord and trouble wherever I travel. I know nothing of events, current or past. I am superficial, loud and obnoxious. I am viewed with haughty disapproval as a person who drinks, smokes and parties at every opportunity. I am a teenager. I am a stereotype. I have been cast unfairly in the role of an imprudent person who knows nothing, is inherently cruel, and always thinking of myself. I am the bane of a society of whom many have never read Tolstoy, Dickens, Bronte, Nietzsche or Rousseau. I am dismissed by many of the generation who fear the day when I become an adult, because then the world will surely fall to pieces. When people look at me, they evaluate through lenses tinted with suspicion, mistrust and doubt. Some will never know that I am compassionate, humble and patriotic. I am an athlete, singer, artist and comedian. I am a daughter, sister, student and friend. I laugh and cry. I speak out and I brood. I love, dislike, and show indifference. I will be the next Nobel Prize winner, best-selling author...

...Beginning..,’ implying that Jesus was there with God at the start of creation. ‘Where the other gospels’ tell us about the human origins of Jesus, John speaks about his divine origin,’ which is with God in heaven, ‘Before all things the word was.’ The fourth gospel paints Jesus as a picture of total control who has descended from heaven to perform his duties to reveal God to humanity. This is evident in the final words of Jesus Christ ‘It is finished’ , implying that Jesus made the decision to end his life. Jesus is given very powerful and direct titles in the gospel of John such as ‘Son of God’. Jesus also implies that he is omniscient and all knowing (John 21:17), characteristics which could only be associated with God. John’s Jesus is one who knows the future and what will happen. ‘Jesus therefore said, "When you lift up the Son of Man, then you...

...it or just look at its shining surface. And I chose to eat my own apple of fate. It was more than eighteen years ago since the day I was born. It was in the 19th of February. I am under the zodiac sign of pisces. According to astrology and studies, pisces persons are artistic, creative, placid and sentimental. And some said that persons who were born in the month of february has peculiar skills and personality. Is that so? So what do I have here? Peculiar in the sense of uniqueness or abnormality? (Yikes, haha!) What’s unique about me? My name? My father gave me the name ‘Soleil’. He got the name from a child actress before. Originally, ‘Soleil’ is a french word which means ‘sun’. I love my name. It’s very unique. And it’s the first thing that people notice about me, especially my teachers, classmates and friends. Because they said, it’s difficult to pronounce and it’s unusual. I can say that I am just a simple person who grew up in a simple life. I grew up with my family in Tanza, Cavite, my father’s hometown. We are five in the family and I am the eldest among my two siblings. I am one year older than my brother and my youngest sister is 11 years old. My father is an average employee in a company and my mother is a housewife. Whenever I meet new people, they always doubt about my age. They say that I look younger than my age. I am already 18 years old but they said I look like a high school student.

...Running Head: Am I a Good Communicator? Am I a Good Communicator? According to Merrium-Webster dictionary (2011), communicating is a method by which information is passed between individuals through a similar system of symbols, signs, or behavior. Being able to effectively communicate and listen to others are important in every aspect of our daily lives. A person has to be able to communicate and listen while at work, home and at school. Relationships are formed and built based on how people communicate with one another. For these reasons it is extremely important that we look at and analyze our communication patterns in terms of speaking and listening. After analyzing ones ability to communicate one then needs to examine areas in which work is needed to improve communication patterns. In terms of speaking I have always felt that my communication skills could improve on different levels, but after reading chapters 7, 8, and 9 in the text my feelings have changed slightly. I am generally a very quiet person. In speaking with family and friends while completing this assignment I was described as the “strong silent type.” Through reading I feel that I have an open style of verbalizing. I am a firm believer in it is not what you say, but how you say it. As a person who works with individuals with developmental disabilities I have learned that verbal communication is essential. You have to compliment the individual when they accomplish goals. Also I have to provide feedback...

...150). When a person is a part of a successful group, their”in-group”, it influences their beliefs and values because it makes them feel good about themselves because being a part of that group makes them successful as well, it makes them feel as if they belong somewhere in this group and are an important part of it which leads to higher self-esteem. People may fear their out-group’s because one may not like the fact that they do not belong to this certain group and having a feeling of not belonging may lower ones self-esteem. “When people feel threatened by their own mortality, they tend to seek greater affiliation with their in-groups and exhibit greater prejudice against out-group’s, in part to reaffirm their sense of place and purpose in the world.” ” (Kassin, Fein, & Markus, 2008, 151). The first group I am a member of is the group of employees I am a part of at my job. I became a member of this group when I started working at the family business that is a shoe store owned by my parents.
