...minutes that provides three states: exploration, clarification, and action stages. This type of emotional therapy is used so that emotions in the human body activated and help the client realize and change problematic emotional levels or self experiences that are not wanted. The therapist looks for the couples interactions, reflects process, finds patens in the relations, emotional signals, and helps expand those signals. The primary goal of this emotional focused therapy is to arouse the emotional awareness and be at a lived experience of a fear, shame, etc, in order to transform it. In this paper will be about a video named Emotional Focused Couples Therapy by Susan Johnson, who has a Doctorate in Counseling Psychology and developer of emotional focus therapy. She will be interviewing a couple who has been married for a year, she has three children but he doesn’t. They met at a church and the wife has had many traumas in her life. We will discuss the Nonverbal and verbal skills of counselor; did certain questions or comments create a change in nonverbal or verbal actions for the clients; what open- and closed-ended questions did the counselor use; what techniques did the counselor use to paraphrase and summarize the words of the clients? Was this effective; how did the counselor apply the information-giving responses; identify the exploration, clarification, and action stages of the interview; what are examples of reflective feeling; how did the counselor encourage the clients...

...Deconstructing Ubese - a Star Wars Conlang Extrapolation I don't know about you, but I was always intrigued by the language Boushh/Leia spoke in Return of the Jedi. There were only a few examples of it in the film: "Yatay, yatay, yotoh," supposedly meant "I have come for the bounty on this wookie." "Yotoh, yotoh" = "$50,000, no less." "Ey, yotoh" = C-3PO paraphrases this as "Because he's holding a thermal detenator!" "Yatoh, cha" = C-3PO paraphrases this as "He agrees." There is something else Boushh/Leia says after the business with Jabba is concluded but I can't really make it out. But the 'yatay yotoh' stuff is what fascinates me. After a bit of searching I discovered that it was called Ubese. After all this research into linguistics and blogging about conlangs, I thought it would be fun to explore an unknown language, and see if I can deconstruct it, and extrapolate on it. Of course, this would have to be a very simple language; but I've posted a few times about how important I think simplicity is. Ubese seems to be the ideal choice to examine and extrapolate on. How would you convey meaning with such seemingly limited and simple vocabulary? Such simplicity would imply, to me, that this is a very context-based language; that words mean many different things according to their context. If this is the case, repeating a word, or reduplication, alters, shifts, deepens, etc. the meaning. If this is the case, what could the sentences mean, if translated to English...

...LEARNING SKILLS UNIT TEACHING MATERIALS: HARVARD REFERENCING Academic writing must use referencing. Harvard Referencing involves: 1. In-text Referencing, which provides information about the source material of direct quotations and paraphrases within the body of your assignment; and 2. Reference list of sources. This is an alphabetical list of all the books, articles and electronic sources that you have referred to within the body of your assignment. The Reference list is the final page of your assignment. Quotations and the Reference list are not included in your word count. Paraphrases can make up approximately 30-40% of your whole text. The rest of your text (60-70%) should be your own arguments or ‘point of view’ stated in your own words. You should develop this point of view by continuing study in lectures and tutorials, as well as wide reading of relevant source material in the form of journal articles, textbooks, websites, study guides and so on. Avoid Plagiarism: You must acknowledge the source of your information. If you copy the words, phrases, sentences or paragraphs of another author without indicating that these words are quotations, then you are plagiarising. If you take an idea from another author without referencing the paraphrase, then you are...

Paraphrase: We could be here. This is the valley and its highway which rabbits can't get across but kids can. They jump to the store with sweetness on their tongues. They watch for fun. Dimes fall from their palms to pay for the candies they eat on the way home. There are lots of dogs and cats and chickens at the house. A pot bangs and water runs in the kitchen, beans are getting cooked for dinner. Brown soup for the the men who work the fields. No matter what race, its hard for anyone who does work in the fields. The cotton gin is a major factor in the money dream and the mill makes money for a wife-and maybe my wife, who boxed peaches and plums and hoed her dad's fields as a girl. We could go back. I could lose this easy job I have. Just talking and using a shovel, a hoe, a broom that takes everything away. All my daughter does is worry. She touches my hand and we eat snow cones from a roadside vendor in the shade while we look around. Behind sunglasses I see where I once was. A brow kid getting across the road. “he's like me,” I tell my daughter and she stops eating her snow cone. He looks both was then leaps across the road where riches happen on red tongues. C.

Quentin Which is not easy, considering I might fail my class or worse, get expelled from the University. Oh man! Where’s my pastrami on rye? Alicia Quentin may not have cited his sources for his last paper properly, and he’s worried he’s going to be accused of plagiarism. Gabby As much as it is an easy mistake to make, plagiarism is still a serious offense and could lead to a Student failing their assignment or even being thrown out of a class or school altogether—even if it is an accident. Quentin You’re not helping here, Gabby! Student Text Bubble Is it really that serious? Gabby Yes, plagiarism is right up there with cheating and stealing, from a moral and ethical perspective. You’re taking someone’s property, their intellectual property, and claiming it as your own. That’s why we’ve been focusing a lot on citation. When you cite your sources, you not only give your readers a clear path to take if they want to read and learn more on your topic, you also protect yourself. Alicia Thankfully there are great tools provided by the University Library Center for Writing Excellence that can help a lot in this area. Tools like the Plagiarism Checker.

...The Harvard Referencing System Introduction As a student, it is important that you identify in your assessment when you are using the words or ideas of another author. The most accepted way of acknowledging the work of another author is to use a referencing system. The following guide tells you why you need to use a referencing system, shows you how to insert references in the text of your assignments, and shows you how to compile a reference list. While there are many variations on the ‘Harvard’ system, the one presented in this guide is the most simple. It does away with most usages of ‘p’ and ‘pp’ to signify page numbers and it replaces some of the commas with colons. Also, this guide is by no means an exhaustive list of all the referencing conventions that you will require in your academic life Why you should use a referencing system As a part of an academic community, it is important that you show the reader where you have used someone else’s ideas or words. Failure to properly reference using the Harvard system may make the reader think that you are cheating by claiming someone else’s work as your own. In the academic environment, we call this plagiarism and it is seen as a very serious offence. Please remember that plagiarism is not just when you directly copy words from another student’s or expert’s work. Plagiarism also occurs when you re-word someone else’s ideas in your own work and you do not give credit to the original source. Plagiarism can...

...construction, and of the domination of the centre, but the boy used it for himself. But the young man torn from his community must find his way back. George Ryga knew that. We cannot let the roles we play determine our vision. We cannot become the magistrate from The Ecstasy of Rita Joe, who glimpses briefly the solitary child by the road and then cannot find her again. Claiming to not see the questions of our time does not answer them. George Ryga wrote about this world now and that currency, that urgency is what we want to carry on here. Ryga will seek the best stories, essays, poems and plays in this tradition -- the literature that our country is so rich in: literature that writes its way home without giving in to nostalgia; literature that celebrates all our competing traditions and resists any safe homogeneity; but literature that refuses to romanticize the voices of the past in a way that denies them a life in the present or the right to presume a central role in the future. We will not look away. This is art that may...

...“Her good nature wore out/ like a fan belt./ So she cut off her nose and her legs/ and offered them up.” This quote from “Barbie Doll”, by Marge Piercy, refers to a young girl who wishes to change her character and her appearance in order to live up to society’s expectations. In fact, instead of being complimented or admired for whom she truly is, people would rather criticize and condemn her for whom she isn’t. As a result of endlessly trying to alter her portrait, the “girlchild” eventually “wore herself out”. This poem suggests that unrealistic societal demands are destructive for a woman’s self-esteem and well-being. When comparing oneself to an idealistic notion of female beauty and behaviour, one can only expect to feel demoralized, discouraged and devalued. Indeed, "Barbie Doll," the title of the poem, symbolizes society’s view of a perfect woman; the way society expects every woman to be. In fact, by using “Barbie Doll” as the title to her poem, Marge Piercy wants the reader to compare and contrast the adolescent’s appearance to that of a Barbie doll. Stereotypically, Mattel’s Barbie dolls have tall, thin yet curvy bodies, with symmetrical, perfect facial features, blonde hair and blue eyes. This, in turn, leads to the protagonist’s void of self-confidence. Additionally, living up to such standards - all the while being a housewife who must clean the house, raise the children and please her husband - is very demanding on the female gender. Moreover, the doll is symbolic...

...The Importance of Having a Laptop or Desktop Computer Kevin Mejia COM/170 7/1/2014 Deloies Haney The Importance of Having a Laptop or Desktop Computer Now in days in today’s society everyone needs a computer, from teenagers to adults. They may need it for school, work, communication, or just for fun, but some people like to have laptops which they can take with them basically anywhere and others a regular desktop which they can just leave in one place of course. It also depends on how much money they would like to spend and the accessibility of getting to your computer. Also, from desktops to laptops they have their differences and their similarities, but it depends on the buyer that which one is more suitable for them. Anyone can say that laptops and desktop computers are the same, but there are differences that can be more useful for people in their own ways. Technology has really expanded throughout this time, and people need a laptop or desktop for work related, to do homework, or even to communicate. But, there are differences about a laptop or desktop that people use for their advantage. There are different components on a desktop and laptop that people like; for example a laptop has a rechargeable battery and you can take it where ever you want. A desktop, on the other hand has many different sizes of monitors that you can choose, whether if you want a bigger screen or smaller. Also a desktop tends to last longer than a laptop before it needs to be repaired or...

It requires a lot more critical thinking than a Bachelors degree program and you have to be prepared to put in the effort. There are some concepts that were discussed in the Lecture and Research Update that will help me to complete my graduate program; three of which are: setting goals and completing tasks, systematically working through the coursework and using the APA (American Psychological Association) format for presenting work completed. The Masters Program at Ashworth College is self-paced with no deadlines but it has a syllabus so it is easy to follow. Having no deadlines may lead to procrastination; therefore it is imperative that I manage my time to complete my studies. I would schedule blocks of regular study time by using a calendar and trying to follow it. As with all plans; occasionally other situations arise that will force me to readjust my schedule. Instead of making up the time lost I will just continue...

...Our relationship has been through many different stages to get to the point where it is now. As I look in the book, I realize that once we started talking to each other we were considered acquaintances. We knew each other by name and talked at various times. The friendship started out with only limited interactions. The breadth of our relationship did not truly increase until we became friends. We then started to share more activities together and held deeper conversations. As I look back through old emails and letters, I notice that we always have a conversational purpose as the as the textbook states. Normally, we just recollect over the summer since we rarely see each other with our work schedules. The formality of our conversations in emails and letters is informal and we both choose to incorporate different topics for discussion. If there is something that we do not understand in our letters or emails to one another, we tend to ask clarifying questions in order to make things easier to understand. As I personally observed our relationship, I noticed that I often times have listening apprehension even with Sandy. I often times have anxiety about whether or not I will completely understand what she is telling me. I often times have to paraphrase what she is expressing to me to make sure that I am hearing correctly. When I do choose to paraphrase, I often use the combined paraphrase approach in order to show that I understood the direct meaning and emotions behind the information...
