...Devonique Lujan November 4, 2012 Intro. To Grammar Is Cheerleading a Sport? Black eyes, busted lips and just plain pain, may you ask from what? You may not believe it, but yes this is from the sport cheerleading. I did not go one day at cheerleading practice without getting hurt. Practice after practice to make sure that we got everything we needed to be done, done. There are many arguments made regarding whether or not cheerleading is a sport. In addition, many people distinguish between a “yell” leader, versus a cheerleader who does stunting versus the competitive all-star cheerleader. You can say that some cheerleading is a sport while other cheerleading is not? That all depends on who you ask, and their definition of sports. Some say cheerleading is not a sport but experience tells me that cheerleading is the most dangerous sport out there. In general, one definition of sports is that they require some type of physical ability or skill that has to be learned and practiced. While no one would argue that cheerleaders practice, it can be argued that cheerleading, when it simply yelling into the crowds, does not require a great deal of skill. Anyone can learn routines and yell into the crowd as long as they smile and do their job. The sport of cheerleading is more than just pompoms and smiles. In my opinion cheerleading is a sport because it requires strength, balance, and coordination. There are many magazines and articles that claim that cheerleading...

...This set of photographs was shot in collaboration with my friend Rachel Wong for her portfolio interview at UAL. It is one of my three initial ideas for the Human Condition project – dystopia. Both the garment and the headpiece are hand made by me using various materials including yarns, pom poms, fabrics and cotton. The hat is based on a simple black cap, which I bought at a vintage market; I then painted it over with a thick layer of white acrylic and decorated it with some pompoms to create the cloud like silhouette. The sleeves of the top is designed to look much longer than a normal sleeve, aimed to cover the hands completely. The long tubes of padded quilting fold together to form the upper part of the traditional Chinese character “無” meaning “nothing” or “no”. The inspiration of this piece of garment comes from the subtheme dystopia, the strict definition of dystopia is : where everything is as bad as it can be. Dystopia can be hugely linked to Human Condition. The clouds symbolize the utopian world outside of prison and the knitwear symbolizes being in prison. The extra long sleeve that cover the hands show that there is no way of getting out of this restricted world. It can also link with the inevitability of death or suicidal because a dystopian environment such as the prison can be too restricted that people would think dying is a form of freedom. The understanding of 'nothing' varies widely between cultures, especially between Western and Eastern cultures and...

...Position Paper “What do we call a Sport?” Each year we see arguments on different teams or news station you hear about a team have a member hurt or a team trying to hurt the other team intentionally. Well for years we have said that cheerleading is not a sport can we actually say that? By looking at all the statistics now a day technically it is a sport. We see this by the performance, physical requirements and dedication that cheerleaders show. Cheerleaders work their best each and every day to put on a performance for the crowd or judges. There are many rules and regulations in the competitions for cheerleaders even in the performances in a football game. From not going to high on a group stunt to not being able to do stunt on the basketball floor. They also have to time things just right because it could lead to disqualification. A wrong move or not enough practice can cause injuries that can put a person in a wheelchair or even death. So everything has to be looked at to assure safety. Like other sports, cheerleaders have to watch their weight and maintain a certain standard as well. So workout have to be keeping up to maintain their weight like football the line has to protect their Quarterback. Well if they choose to not keep up their training and there weight could get them kick off the team even lead to serious injuries to a teammate. So with doing more risky thing there is more of a demand for physical exertion. Muscle memory even plays a big part...

...The object I chose to describe is pompom. Pompom is an item used in cheerleading or cheerdancing. Pompoms are the decorative balls of handheld streamers thet cheerleaders often use as visual props. It gives visual effects in dances and even in other part of the routine. It is made up of cellophane or sometimes just a plain colored paper. It was first used back in 1930`s and at that time pompoms were all handmade from papers. Back in 1953, Lawrence Herkimer founded the cheerleading supply and started manufacturing pompoms. And in 1965 Fred Gastoff invented the first vinyl made pompom. Pom poms are also known as pompoms, poms, pom pons, pompons. All the spelling ending in “n” is the original names and all the spelling ending in “m” are the modernized names. I chose pompoms because it plays a great role in my passion which is cheerleading. In this time we don’t usually use pompoms but when I started as a cheerleader way back in high school, pompoms is the only symbol or mark that makes them recognize me as a cheerleader. Of course I don’t bring the pompoms all the time but whenever they see me holding one I am proud to say that I am a cheerleader. As time passed by I continue gaining knowledge and skills as a cheerleader. I became known in most of the college squads. We even won the National Cheerleading Competition and became top 1 in the country when I was in 3rd year high school. And now I have this scholarship here in Letran College because of everything skills I gained...

...1. What is the simplest SQL retrieval? The simplest versions of the most important SQL command are SELECT, FROM statement. Then if you need to limit the result you introduce the WHERE clause. In the WHERE clause you can use operators such as LIKE, AND, OR, EQUAL, BETWEEN and IN. 2. What is the purpose of the Where clause when using SELECT? The purpose of this clause is to be able to list any conditions that are to be applied to the data retrieved. 3. What are data types and why are they important? A data type is a classification identifying one of various types of data, they are important because assigning data types gives meaning to collections of information 4. Provide an example of the GROUP by clause, when would you use this clause? SELECT Salesperson, SUM(Revenue) AS ‘Total’, MIN(Revenue) AS ‘Smallest’, MAX(Revenue) AS ‘Largest’, AVG(Revenue) AS ‘Average’, COUNT(Revenue) AS ‘Number’ FROM Orders GROUP BY Salesperson You use this clause when you need to see the information in a certain order 5. What is an aggregate function (provide 4)? How are they used? An aggregate function is a function where the values of multiple rows are grouped together as input on certain criteria to form a single value of more significant meaning or measurement AVG() - Returns the average value (average) COUNT() - Returns the number of rows (count) FIRST() - Returns the first value LAST() - Returns the last value 6.

...In a classroom setting, discipline and management are two key components for classroom success. The term classroom management is often used interchangeably with the term classroom discipline. However, the two ideas are very different in their application. Management and discipline are two halves of the same coin, they are intrinsicly connected to each other, but they have their own individual properties, with their own look and feel. Classroom management deals with how things in a class are done. Classroom management is the sole responsibility of the teacher. It encompasses all of the teacher’s interactions with students, classroom environment, rules and procedures, instructional strategies and development of engaging work. In a well managed classroom, the teacher implements policies and develops routines that stabilize and direct the flow of a class. Effective teachers manage their classes so that students spend their time more productively. Elements of classroom management vary. No two classes are alike. However the foundational elements a teacher takes into account before students ever set foot in the build can lend to better classroom management. Things such as classroom layout and organization.A neat and organized classroom tells your students you mean business and you expect them to keep the classroom organized as well. Deciding how to divide up classroom time is another important aspect to classroom management.Lunch, recess, breaks, down-time between lessons and activities...

...Women My psychology class meets every Thursday morning. It is a small class of five students and one instructor. Being in such a small class was unsettling at first because I felt I could not be overlooked by the instructor. I have gotten accustomed to bigger classes where I would blend into the crowd and just be a name in the instructor’s book. Over the last three weeks, I have observed my classmates and my instructor and have learned a thing or two about them. I have also realized how being in a smaller class is actually much more pleasant than previously anticipated. Our classroom is fairly big considering the size of the class. There are eight tables with four chairs at each table. The walls are tasteless, showing only one poster advertising Bryant & Stratton’s impeccable ability to create the world’s best workforce. The teacher’s corner sits at the front of the room while the projector screen hangs on the left wall. Because this is a small class, this poses no problems but I can imagine the seating dilemma if the room were actually full while using the projector system. Mr. Streett is the instructor for this class, a recent graduate from Radford University with a Master’s of Art in Experimental Psychology. He speaks quickly repeating short sentences rephrased but implying the same meaning to help his students grasp the concept being taught. Though he seems to know his stuff, he comes to class unprepared, taking the first 30 minutes of class to make copies...

...(FF) had been running a small, for-profit preschool program for young children between the ages of two and four for several decades. FF was one of several privately run programs in the suburban Boston area. For each of the three age groups (i.e., two-, three- and four- year olds), there were two classes per day for a total of six classes in the facility each day. The classes were held both in the morning and in the afternoon, five days a week between September and June; there were approximately 200 days (40 weeks), or 1,200 class meetings, per year. Only about one- third of FF's local competitors offered classes during the summer months. The morning classes ran from 9:00 a.m. to noon, and the afternoon meetings ran from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Lunch was not served in either class. However, each class served a snack to the children. Class size varied from nine to 15 students per class. Although there was a lot of pressure from parents to reduce class sizes, a recent article in an industry newsletter showed that, given current demographics, the market for such programs could increase by 10% a year for the next five years. The year before, a parent suggested that the school begin hosting birthday parties on the weekend. Since FF's three classrooms were empty during this time, it seemed like a good use of the space and could generate additional revenue. Over the past year, the school had managed to quickly build a sizable side business hosting birthday parties. Approximately...

...Java Class MIS 304 is not a class for everyone. Not just any student should take the class. This class is structured to assist students in learning how to program using the Java language. This class does not make a student an expert in the language of Java, but instead gives the student the basic fundamentals needed to have practical use of the language and gives them a solid foundation upon which they can build if they choose to do so. The material covered in the class is adequate. Java can be a complex language to learn, but in MIS 304 one is taught the basics and nothing too detailed or complicated. The resources that are given to the students are very good. I know that the Java book used for the class is one of the best reference materials on Java that is on the market today. The lab facilities and proctors are also great resources. The only problem I feel that exists is that students don’t take advantage of the resources they have available. Students hardly look through their book for answering questions they might have. Also students hardly even bring their books to the lab when doing programs. They sometimes look for proctors to fix their problems instead of fixing it themselves. I think it should be emphasized to students that the proctors are not their to do the programs for them, but to rather help them figure out what is going wrong in their programs. Also it should be emphasized that the book should be with them when working on programs so that if questions or...

...similar to a class, which can contain only constants, method signatures, and nested types. There are no method bodies. Interfaces cannot be instantiated—they can only be implemented by classes or extended by other interfaces. In Java, a class can inherit from only one class but it can implement more than one interface. | Superclass Instance Method | Superclass Static Method | Subclass Instance Method | Overrides | Generates a compile-time error | Subclass Static Method | Generates a compile-time error | Hides | An abstract class is a class that is declared abstract. Abstract classes cannot be instantiated, but they can be subclassed. It can contain abstract methods that did not have implemented. Subclasses then provide the implementations for the abstract methods. An abstract method is a method that is declared without an implementation (without braces, and followed by a semicolon), like this: Except for the Object class, a class has exactly one direct superclass. A class inherits fields and methods from all its superclasses, whether direct or indirect. A subclass can override methods that it inherits, or it can hide fields or methods that it inherits. (Note that hiding fields is generally bad programming practice.) The Object class is the top of the class hierarchy. All classes are descendants from this class and inherit methods from it. Useful methods inherited from Object include toString(), equals(), clone(), and getClass(). You can prevent a class from being...
