...What if? (Remart Dumlao) If only I could turn back the time, the time that my family is still complete; laughing, sharing, helping each other. I will do all graceful things that I haven’t done before. My life could have been much happier and more colorful as it is now. Maybe I don’t have regrets why I haven’t tried to do things that somehow will make me happy and satisfied. There are so many what ifs that are running on and keep taunting on my mind. What if I did this? What if I’ve done that? What if? I can still remember my graduation day, where the wall was my companion. No one in the family bothered to waste even a single minute. I saw my classmate and her mother who were then very happy having their snacks. They kept on laughing and I could see in their eyes that they are very much contented being together, as if they do not have any problem and the world smiles at them as if they’re only soul in the world that would be happy. Drop of tears suddenly fell down my face from the windows of my soul. Then, someone tapped my shoulder and whispered saying “I’m available balong to be your mother”. I’m so thankful for that living angel, which is my adviser. I continued watching my classmate and his mother when suddenly; I paused and had a little realization. What if my mother and I were doing that? Could we get happier than them? Will they also envy us? This scenario created the question that kept on dashing my mind, which I could not escape and make self-pity. As I went through...

...SIMPLE DISTILLATION OF VODKA (THE BAR) Somo, John Carlo , Sopoco, Marc Andrew , Sotong, Patricia , Venturina, Flian Lyra , Tia, Queenie de Leon 2B- Medical Technology Faculty of Pharmacy UST ABSTRACT Distillation is the method used for purifying liquids and separating mixtures of liquids into their individual components. The experiment targets to differentiate the two methods; simple and fractional distillation, to separate its water and alcohol components, and to determine the percentage of ethanol present in the vodka using simple distillation. A volume of 15mL vodka was poured into the distillation flask for heating/boiling by the alcohol lamp. 0.50 ml of distillate was collected in every calibrated test tube until the temperature reached 100 C. The initial/first and the final distillates were kept for the testing of flammability. The first distillate was the one containing the ethanol since it is flammable, while the other one is inflammable so it is the one with the purified water content. INTRODUCTION Distillation is the method of converting a liquid to vapor, condensing the vapor, and collecting the distillate in another container. It is used to separate liquids from nonvolatile solids, as in the separation of alcoholic liquors from fermented materials, or in the separation of two or more liquids having different boiling points, as in the separation of gasoline, kerosene, and lubricating oil from crude oil. In the modern organic chemistry laboratory, distillation is...

Which has lower rates of ‘workplace bullying’. -NAQ – more commonly uses measurement where categorization is pre-set by the researcher tends to show higher rate of ‘workplace bullying’ Both method need to be conducted to accurately classify and identify ‘workplace bullying’ ,where NAQ might categorize the responder to be being bullied but he/she might not feel as they are being bullied. If a person doesn't feel being bullied is it right to account others as the persecutor? Most of the database samples were isolated to Ethnic, Gender and Geology, specially in the management level researches. Example: Surveys conducted by Etienne (Exploring Workplace Bullying in Nursing, 2014, p8) and Johnson (JONA, Vol 45,No. 9, p458), responds rate was at merely at 1% and samples were predominately White American(88%) and Female(94%).

...There is No Hope of Doing Perfect Research To agree with the statement “There is no hope of doing perfect research” (Griffith, 1998, p97) is to accept that humanity is doomed. There are two extreme phrases used in this context which are the words “perfect” and “no hope” that can incite argument among scholars, scientists, writers, academe people and even ordinary folks. Perfect is being entirely without fault or defect (Merriam-webster.com). Referring to research as perfect reflects the results of the human activity. In the broadest sense of the word, the definition of research includes any gathering of data, information and facts for the advancement of knowledge (Experiment-resources.com). However, human nature is defined as an ordinary human behavior, esp. considered as less than perfect (thefreedictionary.com). Now to relate perfect to humanity is a paradox. If humanity can not be equated to perfection then his actions that includes research is far from perfection as well. Another superlative or extreme description used in the statement is the “no hope” phrase. “No hope” otherwise known as “hopeless” is defined as having no possibility of solution; impossible (thefreedictionary.com). The bluntness of the statement reveals a bleak vision. To agree with the statement “There is no hope of doing perfect research” is to accept that humanity is doomed. Having no hope for perfect research also means that there is absolutely nothing in the past, present and future that can be...

...2013 Stem Cell and Human Cloning Research and Ethics Questions about ethics in research have increased and unethical issues rise from different fields such as Medicine and Science. When the discussion about stem cell and human cloning researches rise for the meaning, “what is life?” the question is simple, but the answer is still unclear. This paper is an overview of the articles about stem cell and human cloning researches that discuss business research ethics and involves ethical and unethical issues. A stem cell is a type of cell found into the body of all human beings, has the capability to reproduce them, and to produce other types of cells such as brain cells, muscle cells, and others. In the New York Times’ article is very clear that the ongoing battle to make this research valid is relentless. This research can be the potential that holds for the future generation and scientists affirms; “stem cells may be used to replace or repair damaged cells, and have the potential to drastically change the treatment of conditions like cancer, Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease and even paralysis.” (Harris, 2012) However, opponents of embryonic stem cell want the research to be restricted or prohibited entire as inhumane because most researches are done by creating embryonic stem cell from fertilized cells. When the approach is human cloning there is no difference, opponents to the research claim that it is immoral and unethical. In human cloning, women's eggs were procured, genetic...
