1. May pag-uunawang maihahambing sa pagtingin at ito’y nararanasan din ng mga bulag. May pagkakataong maari akong gumanap ng wastong paniniwala sa isang kapwa-tao. Ang dalawang pagmumulat na ito ay bahagi ng pagkagising ko sa pilosopiya bilang gawain.

Ang pag-uunawa ay isang pilit na pag-intindi sa meron. Ito ay ang pag-iintindi sa nagmemeron, sa totoong nangyayari, sa nagpepresensiya. Ang pagtingin ay kung ano ang nakikita ng mata, at ang nakikita mo ay ang meron. Sa pagtingin, may abstraksyo na nagaganap, na kung saan hinihiwalay mo kung ano ang nakikita mo. Halimbawa, ang paghihiwalay ng pisikal na kaanyuan ng tao at ang kanyang pagkatao. Ginagawa ito para mas maintindihan ang tao. At sa pagbibigay ng kahulugan sa kung ano ang nakikita mo, gumagawa ka ng konsepto sa bagay na iyon. Sa pamamagitan ng konsepto, pinipilit mong iniintindi ang katotohanan o ang meron. Ang bulag ay maaring tingnan sa literal na paraan, na kung saan dahil hindi niya pwedeng gamitin ang kanyang mga mata, umaasa nalang siya sa kanyang ibang pandama para makakuha ng meron. Kung titingnan natin, mas okay itong paraan na ito dahil maiiwasan ang 1st at 2nd katamaran dahil umaasa tayo sa iba nating pandama. Pwede rin tingnan ang bulag sa hindi nakikita ang meron. Hal, noong bago ako pumunta ng manila para mag-aral, sabi ng mga tao na nakakatakot ang Manila, mahohold-up ka, kaya nagkaroon na ako ng konsepto na mapanganib ang Manila. Pero konsepto lang ito kasi hindi ko pa nararanasan kung totoo. Pwede rin magiging bulag dahil ayaw mong pansinin kung ano ang nandun. Makikita ito sa 1st katamaran, dahil masyado nang sanay sa kung ano ang nandun, hindi mo na titingnan ng maigi kung meron pa bang pwede malaman. Maari rin itong makita sa 2nd katamaran, na kung saan hindi mo na pinapansin ang ibang paraan dahil epektibo ang paraan na ginamit mo. Minsan, nalilito tayo, kung kaya’t kailangan natin ng gabay o tulong ng iba. May 3 conditions bago mapagkatiwalaan ang isang tao: 1. Marunong magmasid/umunawa-kailangan eksperto sa larangan na iyon. Hal, sa pagpapaturo ng accounting-hindi ka magpapaturo sa taong bumabagsak din, nagpapaturo ka sa yung naka-A o magpapatutor ka. 2. Marunong magbigay ng kaalaman-dapat marunong siyang magturo. Hindi sapat na eksperto siya sa larangan na iyon. Hal, yung eco prof ko – magaling na economist, ngunit hindi magaling magturo. 3. Makatotohanan/di nagsisinungaling. Hal. Marco, dahil palagi akong ginagago, kapag sasabihin niya na freecut yung philo bukas, magiisip ako kung totoo o hindi. Ngunit sa huli, ikaw lamang ang pwedeng tumingin, walang pwede tumingin para sayo. Sa philosophy, ang philein ay ang kilos, habang ang Sophia ay ang karunungan. Ang philosophy ay ang kilos ng pagmamahal para sa karunungan, upang malaman mo ito, magbabasa ka, manunuod, ngunit kailangan din itong gawin. Kapag nasabi na ang lahat ng nasabi, ang importante ay ang hindi nasabi. Hal, sa orals. Tinatanong mo ang mga tao kung paano ang orals ni Tolentino, at ang sabi nila ganito ganyan, ngunit iba pa rin ang pagranas mo sa orals.

2. Ang kuwento ng manggugulong. Dalawang interpretasyon ukol sa anak. Ano ang sinasabi nito sa iyo ukol sa matinong pamimilosopiya?

Sa kwento ng manggugulong, may hari, may manggugulong, at ang anak ng manggugulong. Tinanong ng hari sa manggugulong kung bakit pa ba siya magbabasa ng mga sinulat ng mga dating manggugulong, hindi na ito importante, labi na lamang ito ng meron. Sagot ng manggugulong na oo matanda na siya, eksperto na siya, ngunit may hindi pa rin siyang alam, kulang pa rin ang kanyang kaalaman, hindi niya kayang malaman ang lahat. Sa anak ng manggugulong naman, gusto niyang maging magaling na manggugulong tulad ng ama niya kaya binasa niya lahat ng aklat at kinausap niya ang lahat ng mga magagaling na mangugugulong, ngunit nung sinubukan na niyang gumawa ng gulong, palpak ito. Doon niya nalaman na kapag nasabi na ang lahat ng sinasabi, ang importante ay ang hindi nasasabi. Mas importante ang “personal experience”, kaya ang ginawa niya, paulit-ulit siyang gumawa ng gulong, at sa dahil inuulit niya ang paggawa ng gulong, may nalalaman siyang bagong problema, at solusyon. May nalalaman siyang bago na maari niyang madagdag sa kanyang kaalaman. Makikita dito yung sinabi ni Constantin Constantius na hindi exaktong exakto ang pag-uulit. May 2 interpretasyon sa anak: 1. Binabasa lamang niya at tumatanong siya sa iba upang makakuha ng kaalaman, 2. Yung ginagawa na talaga niya ang paggawa ng gulong. Tulad ng sinabi ni Fr. Ferriols na “Lundagin mo Beybe”, na kung saan pag nagawa mo na, doon ka matututo. Ang matinong pamimilosopiya ay ang continuous learning, upang matuto, hindi sapat na sasabihin ang pilosopiya, kailangan itong maranasan, at gawin.

3. Maglahad ng tatlong posibleng katamaran sa pagbigkas sa meron: sanhi at lunas. Paanong makatutulong ang pag-uulit (ayon sa mga patakaran ni K at ni H) sa pagsupil sa katamaran sa pagbigkas ng meron?

Ang 1st katamaran ay ang katamaran ng katamaran – dahil sanay na tayo, nagiging routine na o habit, hindi na napapansin. Hal, Big 4, araw-araw nakikita, nakakasama, hindi napapansin kung tumataba ba, “take for granted” na araw-araw nakikita,kung kaya’t hindi na din natin sinubukan na alamin kung meron pa ba mas hihigit pa. Maaring makatulong ang pag-uulit ni H sa pagiging lunas sa katamaran na ito. Ayon kay H, ang pag-uulit ay parang ilaw sa vacuum, kung saan ang nakikita natin ay ang nasisilawan, hindi ang ilaw mismo. Hindi dahil nakita na natin ang isang “dust” sa loob ng vacuum, yun na yun sa lahat. Sa halimbawa ko, hindi dahil nakikita ko sila araw-araw, wala na akong makikita pang iba, kailangan kong tingnan sa ibang angulo. Ang 2nd katamaran ay ang katamaran ng sipag – dahil isip natin na epektibo ang paraan na iyon, sinasara natin ang ating isipan sa iba pang paraan. Hal, Nakikinig lang ako sa kpop, wala akong alam sa American pop, hindi ako makakarelate sa kung ano ang mga sinasabi ng tao, kaya hindi na ako sasali sa mga usapan nila, dahil para sa akin, kpop lang importante na genre. Makakatulong ang pag-uulit ayon kay K. Ayon kay K, ang pag-uulit ay ang pagbabalik-loob. Sa buhay ni K, ang lahat ng kilos at ginagawa niya ay para kay Regina. Ginawa niyang sentro at kahulugan ng kanyang buhay si Regina, kung kaya’t hindi na niya nakikita ang iba pang bagay. Pinapakita ni K na dapat hindi lamang si Regina ang gawing sentro ng buhay, dapat maging bukas sa iba, dahil kapag nawala itong sentro na ito, parang nawala na rin ang kahulugan ng buhay natin. Sa halimbawa ko, dapat maging bukas sa iba pang genre ng musika, at hindi lamang kpop ang palaging pinapakinggan. . Ang 3rd katamaran ay ang pagtatampo sa meron. Dahil nabigo ka ng meron, ayaw mo nang magmeron. Hal. Noong midterm orals, dahil mababa ang nakuha kong marka, di na ako mag-aaral sa final orals kasi isip ko mababa pa rin ang makuha ko. Maaring makakatulong ang pangalawang depinisyon ni H sa pag-uulit, ang wika. Nagbabago ang kahulugan ng salita, ngunit hindi ibig sabihin nito, hihinto na tayo sa pag-aalam ng kung ano ang ibig sabihin nito. Sa halimbawa ko, hindi ibig sabihin iniisip natin na babagsak tayo, hihinto na tayo sa pag-aaral. Dahil ayaw natin mag 5th year sa Ateneo, kaya mag-aaral tayo para sa finals.

4. Ang disciplina ng alanganin ay pagsisikap gumalaw sa tunay na tanong. Halimbawa, mababakasan ito sa katagang “hula”.

Nag-aalanganin tayo dahil bilang tao, limitado lamang ang kaalaman natin. Limitado lamang tayo sa kung ano ang alam natin sa nakaraan, at hindi tayo sigurado sa kung ano ang mangyari sa hinaharap. Araw-araw, gumagawa tayo ng mga pasya base sa kung ano ang alam natin. Hal, sa pelikulang 13 going on 30, noong naging 30 years old siya, dahil 13 years old lang ang utak niya, ang mga ginagawa niya ay nakabase sa kung ano ang alam niya bilang isang teenager. Tinatanong natin kung ano ang posible na mangyari sa hinaharap, ngunit dahil hindi natin alam kung ano ang mangyayari sa kinabukasan, gumagawa tayo ng hula. Ang hula ay ang point na kung saan tumutugma ang kung ano ang gusto mong mangyari at ang mga alam mo sa nakaraan. Gumagawa ka ng desisyon base sa nakaraan ukol sa hinaharap. Hal, 3rd year ko na sa Ateneo, ang alam ko ay kung ano ang naranasan ko sa 3 taon ko dito, at kung ano ang natututunan ko sa iba’t ibang paksa, gusto kong malaman kung mahirap ba ang finance, gagawa ako ng hula na mahirap ang finance base sa nararanasan ko sa accounting at sa kung ano sinasabi ng mga upperclassmen sa akin. Tayo ay humuhula dahil alanganin tayo sa kung ano ang hinaharap ngunit gusto natin malaman kung hanggang saan ang pwede natin maabot sa pag-aalam ng meron. Hindi natin binubukas ang meron, magbubukas ito “in its’ own time”. relasyon ninyong dalawa.

5. May mga naninindigang walang malayang pasya ang tao. Ngunit, sa mapagkilatis na pagmumuni-muni, matutuklasan ang kakayahan ng tao sa malayang pasya, na kailangang alagaan at gamitin, lalo na sa pasya sa sangandaan.

Ayon sa mga siyentipiko, ang mga kilos natin ay reaksiyon lamang sa mga stimulus. Kung gutom ka, kakain ka, kung inaantok ka, matutulog ka. Tila “puppets” lamang tayo ng mga circumstances, ng mga bagay na pumapalibot sa atin, tulad ng uso. Ang mga maari nating pagpipilian ay may hangganan. Hal. Summer na, uso ang sleeveless na mga damit, makikisunod ka ba sa uso o hindi. Ngunit, sa gitna ng hangganan, ay infinity. Kung napili mong sumunod sa uso, ikaw na ang magpapasya kung anong style ang ibibili mo, anong kulay, kung spaghetti strap ba, o tank top. Ag mga pagpipilian o “choices” ay ang mga limitasyon sa kung ano ang dapat nating gawin, ngunit ikaw lamang ang maaring gumawa ng mga pasya na iyon, dahil may sarili kang pagkatao kung kaya’t pipili ka ng kung ano ang naaayon para sa iyo. Maari itong makikita sa baliktad na tatsulok ni Ricouer, na kung saan sinasabi na tayo lahat ay may transcendental freedom; “every choice that we make collectively, defines who we are”. Ang mga pasya na ginagawa natin ay tumutungo sa dulo ng tatsulok o ang “end goal”. Kaya kung nahaharap tayo sa sangandaan, iniisip natin kung ano ang daan na patungo sa “goal” na iyon, at iyon ang ating pinipili.

6. Ang pagbigkas sa meron ay pag-angkin sa talagang nangyayari, hindi makokonsepto, gumagalaw sa abot-tanaw na palaging dapat baguhin, tugon sa tawag ng meron, pasya, tanong, pagsasagawa, pagtaya sa sarili.

Ayon kay H, ang wika ay ang tahanan ng meron. Ang meron ay ang talagang totoo, talagang nangyayari. Ang konsepto ay ang panturo ng meron. Ito ay isang paraan lamang upang mailarawan ang meron ngunit hindi siya yung meron mismo dahil may hangganan siya. Hindi ito makokonsepto dahil hindi ito maikakahon. May limitasyon ngunit may “infinite choices in between”. Hal. Kung itatanong mo kung ano ang cellphone, iba iba ang depinisyon ng tao dahil iba iba ang karanasan nila ukol dito. Para sa iba, maaring cellphone ang tablet, para sa iba naman hindi. Mayroon tayong abot-tanaw. Hal, sumasakay ka ng Bangka, ang nakikita mo sa horizon ay ang tubig at ang mga bundok, ngunit kapag gumalaw ka ng konti, makikita mo na medyo lumalaki ang bundok, at may mga maliliit pa na mga bundok na di mo napansin noong una. Sa paraan na ito, gumagalaw ang meron dahil palagi itong nag-iiba, kaya dapat palaging baguhin dahil palaging nagbabago ang meron, nag-iiba ang abot-tanaw mo. Kailangan magbago ang meron dahil mayroon pang ibang bagay na kailangan makita. Hal. Kapag tinanong na ng lalaki ang babae kung pwede maging sila, hindi ibig sabihin na doon na nagtatapos ang meron, dahil marami pang pwedeng malaman. May attraksyon ang tao na matuto ng mga bagong bagay, at dahil dito, tinatawag tayo na alamin kung ano ang maari nating malaman tungkol sa meron. Ngunit, dahil hindi natin kayang malaman ang lahat, magiging alanganin tayo at gagawa tayo ng hula na nakabase sa kung ano ang alam natin sa nakaraan at kung ano ang gusto natin mangyari sa hinaharap. Minsan, pasya natin na mahulog sa katamaran dahil iniisip natin na hindi natin kayang malaman ang meron. Dahil gusto nating malaman ang meron, tumatanong tayo, at dumadagdag ito sa kaalaman natin. Ang pagbigkas ng meron ay isang gawain, sa huli, kapag nasabi na ang lahat, ang pinakaimportante ay ang mga hindi nasasabi. Kailangan nating dumanas ng meron. Hindi lamang natin ito makukuha base sa kung ano ang sinasabi ng iba. Tulad ng sinabi ni Ferriols na “Lundagin mo Beybe”, kailangan ng pagtaya sa sarili upang umunawa pa. Kailangan ibigay mo ang sarili mo sa pagdanas ng meron.

The Abilities of an American Inventor

...of an American Inventor At first glance it appears as though Philo Farnsworth, at a very young age, developed a natural ability to understand complicated concepts. At 14 years of age, Philo envisioned a way to create the all electronic television. Later, at 21, he was able, with the help of his wife and her brother, to build all the components, and assemble the first television. The time in between these two events seems to point to something other than just technical ability. Philo was able to create and also recognize opportunities. To most people, this may be more important. Most people will probably not invent anything at all, let alone something that has had the impact on our lives that television has, but we can all look back on our lives, and see opportunity that we have missed, or maybe a time we did not put forth the effort we should have. Philo’s ability to seize an opportunity is something we can all learn to achieve (Encyclopedia of World Biography, Thomas Gale, Edition 1, 1998). Philo Farnsworth was born in Indian Creek, near Beaver Utah, on August 19th, 1906. There was no electricity where Philo lived. Philo’s father, Lewis Farnsworth, would often discuss the technical aspects of such devices as the telephone, gramophone, and locomotives with his son. Philo also would read technical and radio magazines. When the family moved to a farm in Idaho that had it own power plant, Philo took the opportunity to study the plant, and master the lighting system...

Philo T Farnsworth

...Philo Taylor Farnsworth Was an American inventor in the early 1900’s and considered the father of television for his invention of what is known as the Electric Television. This invention was used in conjunction with Vladimir K. Zworykin’s Cathode Ray Tube which was used in many common electrical appliances up until the past 15 years in which Transistors and Crystal Displays have become the standard for use in electronics. Farnsworth was born August 19, 1906 near what is now known as Beaver, Utah by Mormon couple  Lewis Edwin Farnsworth and Serena Amanda Bastian who lived in a log cabin up until a small amount of time after Philo’s Birth. In 1918 Philo and his family moved to Rigby, Idaho. Upon to his family’s relocation to Idaho he was pleased to find out that his new home was wired for electricity by what was known as a Delco generator which allowed for energy for farm equipment and lighting. He quickly self-taught himself and learned personal study in mechanical and electrical technology, he would repair the troublesome delcor generator, and upon finding a burned out electric motor among some items discarded by the previous tenants, proceeding to rewind the armature and convert his mother's hand-powered washing machine into an electric-powered one.

...I used to play soccer for a club,just for recreational purposes,in fact i was one of the cofounders of the team. The team we assembled was a mixture of young and old, and for this reason we were the laughing stock of the league, because all other teams were made up solely of young players, who were exceptionally talented. The team ended up on the wrong side of the score for the first few games we played, and got nicknamed the “whopping boys”. Eventually we grew tired of the nickname and of our performances on the field, and we decided to try and improve things, first thing we did was to elect a leader for the club. Even though i didnʼt want the job, i was voted into the position, and as the president it was my duty to represent my team when the league called for club meetings. At the time we were all students, so it was decided that we would all contribute towards any and all expenses,but unfortunately when you dealing with a blend of young and old, things donʼt always go according to plan, people constantly made up excuses for not showing up for practice, or for not contributing towards our equipment.

Two Students Accounting Case

...the students are Bill and John. Bill believes that the completed -contract method is most like recognizing revenue at point of delivery because in the end the final product is delivered and has fulfilled any requirements to recognize revenue. John believes that percentage-of-completion is most like point of delivery and this allows a company to recognize revenue over time. I support Bill’s opinion that the completed-contract method is closest to recognizing revenue at point of delivery. The reason I support this is because while there is still construction taking place, as in the percentage-of-completion method, there still is no actual product being delivered. Along with no product being delivered, it is possible that the final product may never actually be made. If there’s a chance the end product not being made then there is no way to recognize revenue for that product. Using the completed contract method we hold off on recognizing any revenue until the final product is finished and delivered to the client. In my opinion completed contract fulfills the requirements of revenue recognition which are (1) the amount has to be realized / realizable and (2) the revenue must be earned. In completed contract at point of delivery the item can be considered earned now that it is completed and ownership has passed to the final customer. Percentage-of-completion does help serve large contracts that take years to complete so that a company can recognize some revenue every year. The problem...

Cougars on the Bay

...Utter chaos or sheer comical genius? The Eric Andre Show transcends what most people typically think of in terms of a variety show. This man has taken his talents as a comedian and created something that is truly unforgettable. The show on Wednesday, September 19 started with Eric Andre running out on stage throwing beer, sandwiches, what seemed to be chicken carcasses, and many other objects out into the crowd as he jumped off stage and began to run through the dense mass of people pushing, shoving, and simply making a riot amongst the observers. He disappeared and shortly after appeared back on stage fully naked running around the set. Things slowly settled down and it was time for his first guest, Russell Brandt. The crowd grew eager and when he finally came on stage, it was clear that it was in fact not he. Either that, or Russell Brandt changed his image to that of a malnourished Philadelphian homeless person. Once on stage “Brandt” sang a song, in what seemed to be English accompanied by a plastic guitar and a 2 liter bottle filled with some unknown foamy liquid that eventually also ended up in the crowd. His next two guests consisted of a local juggler and Freeway, who is a native rapper of North Philadelphia. It was clear that neither of the two were aware of what they were actually participating in. Right as the juggler was about to begin his performance, the lights dimmed and Doc Chicken emerged. This was nothing more than a rubber chicken with a stethoscope...

The first strategy we discussed was to have a meeting with Jan, Sally, and Marc to find out why and how we could help them come to a decision about the ad. Allow each employee to present what ideas they have for the ad. As the manager listen to the idea, explain to them your views on what makes a successful ad, and make any suggestions for improvement on the ideas, if needed. Feedback is welcome, but we have a deadline to meet. Ask each one of them what they can produce to help promote this ad. Also remind them that they have been successful in the past and we are sure you can work together to solve this conflict. It’s about compromising. The second strategy is meeting with Jan and Marc, since they were unable to compromise. Even though they worked very well together in the past and Sally tried to get them to come to an agreement they could not set their personal values aside. The manager needs to be the negotiator to guide employees to see others views. Compromise is the key to good negotiation. You need to be able to give in a little to get closer to what you want.
