...KAUGNAY NA LITERATURA Sabi ni Van Slyke, 1999 na isa sa mga nakaka-apekto sa mabisang pakikinig ay ang “emosyunal na estado at eksternal na ambala” na kung saan ang pagkakalubog sa kung ano mang karanasang pangka-salukuyan ay nakakapagdudulot ng hadlang sa pakikinig. Habang ang pangkapaligirang ingay at mga galaw na humuhuli sa atensyun ng tagapakinig ay isang malaking impluewensya na nakakaapekto sa pagkakaroon ng mabisang pakikinig. Ayun naman kay Dweyer, 2012 sa kanyang teorya sa kumunikasyon na ang “noise o ingay” ay isang bagay na nakaka-ambala sa indibidwal o nakaka-apekto sa proseso ng kumunikasyon. Ayun kay Dweyer na ang ingay ay nakaka-ambala sa panatag na daloy ng kumunikasyon sa pagitan ng tagapagsalita at tagapakinig at malamang na mapunta sa hindi pagkakaunawaan. Sinasabi naman sa bibiia sa II TIMOTEO 4:3 na “Sapagka't darating ang panahon na hindi nila titiisin ang magaling na aral; kundi, pagkakaroon nila ng kati ng tainga, ay magsisipagbunton sila sa kanilang sarili ng mga gurong ayon sa kanilang sariling mga masasamang pita; ” Sinasabi dito na ang pagkakawalang interes ng mga tagapakinig sa dahil sa atensyon ay nabubuntong sa ibang bagay. Sabi naman ni Judi Brownell, “Listening Environment: A Perspective,” na may dalawang karaniwan na hadlang sa konsentrasyon ito ay isa pagka sentro sa sarili at kakulangan sa pagganyak. Ukol naman kay Clark, 1989 na ang mga taong may tiwala sa sarili ay nakikinig at nakakaintindi ng mas mabuti sa niloloob ng minsahe...

...10 tips to mend a broken heart Bess Myerson once wrote that “to fall in love is awfully simple, but to fall out of love is simply awful.” Especially if you are the one who wanted the relationship to last. Mending a broken heart is never easy. There is no quick way to stop your heart from hurting so much. To stop loving isn’t an option. Author Henri Nouwen writes, “When those you love deeply reject you, leave you, or die, your heart will be broken. But that should not hold you back from loving deeply. The pain that comes from deep love makes your love ever more fruitful.” But how do we get beyond the pain? Here are 10 tips I’ve gathered from experts and from conversations with friends on how they patched up their heart and tried, ever so gradually, to move on. 1. Go through it, not around it. I realize the most difficult task for a person with a broken heart is to stand still and feel the crack. But that is exactly what she must do. Because no shortcut is without its share of obstructions. Here’s a simple fact: You have to grieve in order to move on. During the 18 months of my severe depression, my therapist repeated almost every visit: “Go through it. Not around it.” Because if I went around some of the issues that were tearing me apart inside, then I would bump into them somewhere down the line, just like being caught in the center of a traffic circle. By going through the intense pain, I eventually surfaced as a stronger person ready to tackle problems head on. Soon the...

...STUDY “Family is the foundation of the society which strengthens the human world.” This is from the research paper of Ms. Jesalyn Pastorfide. This inspires us to choose the topic “Broken Family Relationship: Affects the study habits of High School students of Saint Francis College – Allen”. In studying, having a complete family somehow inspires a student to study hard. Our family is the first environment in which we are exposed to. We can’t choose the family we want but what it will depends on us. A broken family can lead teenagers to Juvenile Delinquency. We are aware that there are some teenagers with broken family that are drug addicts or whatever. But there are also teenagers that are not involved in drug addictions. Marriage begins in Matrimony in which the couples are saying vows in front of the crowd and in front of the Almighty God. But there are some couples who were happy after their wedding but eventually separate without thinking what will happen to their child/children. Some parents are teaching the teenagers to always choose the right decision but are they choosing the right ones? Some will say no, some will say yes. There is no definite answer. In this research, we will be interviewing some students with or without broken family of Saint Francis College – Allen to know if having an incomplete or broken family can greatly affect study habits of students.

...History Of Air Conditioner The history of air conditioner started in the early days with the need to preserve foods. Foods that are kept at room temperature spoil easily due to the growth of bacteria. At temperature below 4° C (40° F), the growth of bacteria is reduced rapidly. As a result of the development in food refrigeration, other applications that follows include air conditioning, humidity control and manufacturing processes. The discovery of the principles of the absorption type of refrigeration in 1824 showed that liquefied ammonia could chill air when it is allowed to evaporate. Ice was created using compressor technology in the year 1842 by a physician named John Gorrie. The commercially available of air conditioning applications started based on the need to cool air for industrial processes than for personal comfort. The first electrical air conditioning was invented by Willis Haviland Carrier in the year 1902. He was also known as the Father of Modern Air Conditioning. His invention was designed to improve the manufacturing process of a printing plant. By controlling the temperature and humidity of the plant, the processes were made more efficient as the paper size and the ink alignment were consistently maintained. The Carrier Air Conditioning Company of America was established by him to meet the demand of better productivity in the workplace. Today, Carrier Corporation is the biggest air conditioner manufacturer and marketing corporation in the world...

.... The Main Branches of Philosophy are divided as to the nature of the questions asked in each area. The integrity of these divisions cannot be rigidly maintained. a.Axiology: the study of value; the investigation of its nature, criteria, and metaphysical status. We can briefly elaborate as follows. Nature of value: is value a fulfillment of desire, a pleasure, a preference, or simply an interest? Criteria of value: de gustibus non (est) disputandum or do standards apply? Status of value: how are values related to (scientific) facts? What ultimate worth, if any, do human values have?Axiology is sub-divided into two main parts. Ethics: the study of values in human behavior or the study of moral problems: e.g., (1) the rightness and wrongness of actions, (2) the kinds of things which are good or desirable, and (3) blameworthy and praiseworthy actions. Aesthetics: the study of value in the arts or the inquiry into feelings, judgments, or standards of beauty and related concepts. b.Epistemology: the study of knowledge. In particular, epistemology is the study of the nature, scope, and limits of human knowledge. Epistemology investigates the origin, structure, methods, and integrity of knowledge.Consider the truth of the statement, "The earth is round." This statement can be successively translated as …"The earth is spherical" C.Ontology or Metaphysics: the study of what is really real. Metaphysics deals with the so-called first principles of the natural order and "the ultimate...

...Broken Families CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION In the Philippines, Family is defined as the small unit of society where students got their first learning about the world before they engage themselves in the real scenarios of life. It is believed that parents are the first advisers of their kids who will teach them everything about all aspects of life including education. Filipinos nurture the value of family and their importance to one’s life. Filipinos are well-known of having close family ties that love, respect, support and understand one another. An individual cannot achieve his or her goals without the necessary supports from the family. The family becomes the major inspiration of students to work hard and earn better grades so that one day they can help their family.

...INTRODUCTION Family is a single word with many different meanings. People have many ways of defining a family and what being a part of a family means to them. What every family has in common is that the people who call it a family are making clear that those people are important in some way to the person calling them his family.
