...I. Introduction As a student researcher, the researcher goes to school with her batch mates and school mates 9 hours, 5 days a week. Not only do we study, learn and understand at school but we are also given different activities at any given time in any different weather; rain or shine. The researcher has been observing her batch for the past years and now that we’re senior high school students, the researcher thought that we have learned a lot of things around us already. The researcher won’t believe if there isn’t just one senior high school batch in any school that would display even the slightest act of foolishness. Why ? because we need to have fun, the researcher means that this is the last school year in high school for senior students to have fun and make memories before they leave, even if it can lead to consequences. So, the researcher wants to conduct a survey or research to know the different attitudes of qualities of the senior high school students of Saint Paul University Dumaguete that would differentiate the talents, abilities and behavior we imply in the school from other institutions or schools. The researcher wants to know what this batch of senior high school students are capable of, what this batch excels and what this batch has that we can boast to others. The researcher chose this problem because this can help or clear any doubtful minds from knowing facts or truths from rumors or lies about senior students. It can clear any belief they had from...

...task 1 – INTRODUCTION INSTRUCTIONS: Please provide a flow diagram with commentary (including specific examples) on the organisation of the human body. You must include cells, tissues, body organs and systems. Any images used must be sourced. The human body is extremely complex and contains different systems which work alongside each other but complete diverse tasks to keep our body’s functioning. Chemical level– is the simplest level within the structural hierarchy. The chemical level includes the tiniest building blocks of matter, atoms, which combine to form molecules, like water. In turn, molecules combine to form organelles, the internal organs of a cell. Cellular level – the cellular level is made up of the smallest unit of living matter, the cell. The individual cells may have some common functions but vary widely in size and shape. Each type of cell carries out a set of unique tasks within the human body. Tissue level – tissues are groups of similar cells that have a common function. A tissue must contain two different types of cells. The four basic tissue types in humans include epithelium, connective, muscle and nervous tissue. Each tissue has a characteristic role that is vital in the complete function of the human body. Organ level – an organ is a structure composed of at least two different tissue types that perform a specific function within the body. Examples of this include the brain, stomach and liver. Complex functions begin to emerge at...

Newspapers, magazines and any other form, which is written or printed, is included in print media and in electronic, media radio, television and Internet etc. are included. When there are so many channels and newspapers we cannot ignore its importance in the society.Mediacan change opinions because they have access to people and this gives it a lot of strength.

...CHAPTER 1 – TAXES AND TAXING JURISDICTION Taxes are pervasive because they: o Are so widespread. o Come in so many varieties, and o Affect virtually every area of modern life. Taxes are dynamic because tax law changes so freque ntly. o Rate of change reflects fact that economic and poli tical assumptions on which tax structures are based are constantly ev olving. Tax – Payment to support the cost of government. o Differs from fine or penalty because tax is not int ended to deter or punish unacceptable behavior. o Taxes, on the other hand are compulsory rather than voluntary on part of the payer. o Differs from user’s fee because payment of tax does not entitle payer to specific good or service in reutnr. o Citizens receive government benefits for tax dollar s but the value of those benefits is not correlated to the tax the per son must pay. o NOT an assessment of benefits, but a means of distr ibuting burden and cost of government. o Taxpayer “entitled to benefit derived from enjoymen t of privileges of living in organized society, established and safe g uarded by devotion of taxes to public purposes.” 2 Taxpayer – Any person or organization required by law to pay a tax to a governmental authority. o Person – Natural persons and corporations. o Corporations are entities organized under law of ju risdiction and enjoy same legal rights, privileges, and protection ...

...racticeBriefing Notes: Best Practices in Professional Development Introduction A firm interested in increasing its employees’ skills and competencies while deepening their employees’ commitment to the organization should c onsider three interventions: the nature of the job, formal training and the mentoring/co aching process. This paper on best practices outlines the issues firms fa ce in developing programs in these three areas and disc usses which practices, program designs or methods firms should take up in response to these issues. The Job Research in firms suggests that younger professionals are drawn to two different kinds of firms: the firm with a great reputation in the field, and the smaller, often less reputable, firms that offer younger people a broader range of opportunities. They usually favor the former when they regard their first or secon d job as a way station to a longer-term career in another company or setting and want to garner the “halo” effect of having worked at a great firm. This phenomenon o c curs in other professional services as well. For example, many consultants are happy to go to M cKinsey for their first five years of employment even though the prospect of becoming a partner and then a director are quite limited, and the work itself is extremely taxing. Many firms, however, cannot rely exclusively on the limited supply of skills within the firm to create opportunities for learning and growth. Therefore, these firms must...

...Köln, 27.01.2011 Hausarbeit Hooliganismus - Gewalt bei Sportereignissen Einleitung Das Phänomen des Hooliganismus bezeichnet eine von Zuschauern ausgehende Gewalt bei Sportereignissen oder im Zusammenhang mit diesen (z.B. im Vorfeld bei der Anreise). Wir werden uns auf den Hooliganismus im Umfeld des Fußballsports konzentrieren, da Fußball ein Volkssport mit viele aktiven Vereinsmitgliedern, sowie mit zahlreichen, Woche für Woche begeisterten Stadiongänger und Fernsehzuschauer ist. Diese Fans sind nicht nur in finanzieller Hinsicht unverzichtbar für die Vereine und die Sportartikelindustrie. Sie sorgen auch für eine anfeuernde und motivierende Unterstützung der Spieler von den Rängen aus und machen dadurch den Fußball zum Medienereignis. Die Frage, warum Hooliganismus verstärkt bzw. fast ausschließlich im Rahmen des Fußballsports vorkommt, ist nicht einfach zu beantworten. Eine mögliche Antwort könnte sein, dass das Bild der hegemonialen Männlichkeit durch Fußball bedient wird und durch ihn Wertevorstellungen vermittelt werden, die durch Begriffe wie Macht, Körperlichkeit, Mut und Kameradschaft geprägt sind. Gliederung 1. Definition und Etymologie des Begriffs 2. Entwicklung und Entstehung * Geschichte * Entstehung bzw. Ausdifferenzierung eine Subkultur * Abgrenzung von Fan, Ultra und Hooligan 3. Der moderne Hooligan * Soziale Herkunft und Zusammensetzung * Intention und Beweggründe 4. Fallbeispiel 5. Gegenmaßnahmen ...
