...How did the earth become a form? The question has been an agreement between Atheists and the christians who believes that God created to universe. There was conversation about secular evolution theories about the earth evolved billion years, and humans evolved from lower life form by natural processes. The Bible is the only and first record primeval history that stated time and space started(in the Beginning), and in the beginning God created the (Heavens and the Earth) they were established in the Beginning. In the beginning God created man and woman, so they can maintain the Earth and be fruitful and multiply. (Genesis 1-2) The major crisis in the garden that caused chaos for Adam and Eve, and their lives was never the same again. In the book Genesis the first opening statement is “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The Hebrew verb (created) is a word associated the only God in the Bible, which He was and is the only God that could've created the Earth and put time in motion. This proved that God existence before time began, and He is the Creator of time too. He spoke the world into existence out of nothing. Scientific creationism believe in the bang theory that the earth just form from gases and wind combined created big expulsion in space caused the Earth to develop. However, God spoke the heavens and the Earth to exist, and the first three days God gave form to the earth and the body (light, water, sky, and land.) Genesis 1:2-19. On the...

...EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Students Industrial Work Experience Scheme (SIWES), is a skills development programme initiated by the Industrial Training Fund (ITF), in 1973 to bridge the gap between theory and practice among students of engineering and technology in Institutions of Higher Learning in Nigeria. It provides for on-the-job practical experience for students as they are exposed to work methods and techniques in handling equipment and machinery that may not be available in their Institutions. At inception in 1974, the Scheme started with 784 Students from 11 Institutions and 104 eligible courses. By 2008, 210,390 Students from 219 Institutions participated in the Scheme with over 112 eligible courses. However, the rapid growth and expansion of SIWES, has occurred against the backdrop of successive economic crises which have affected the smooth operation and administration of the Scheme. Most industries in Nigeria today, are operating below installed capacity while others are completely shut down (Manufacturing Association, 2003 - 2006). This has impacted negatively on the Scheme as Institutions of Higher Learning find it increasingly difficult to secure placement for Students in industries where they could acquire the much needed practical experience. Aim of the Study The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of SIWES on Technical Skills Development in the Nigerian economy. This is to enable Institutions of Higher Learning and other Stakeholders assess the performance...

...with change itself, but rather with transitions. The change is the situation, i.e., the new boss, the move, the reorganization, etc. The transition is “psychological. It is the three-phased process people go through as they internalize and come to terms with the details of the new situation that the change brings about.” “People have to bring their hearts and minds to work,” so when change comes along, “transition management…is a way of dealing with people that makes everyone feel more comfortable.” The first phase is Letting Go—the ending of the old. People need to deal with their losses. Next is the “neutral zone,” when the old is gone and the new is not fully operational. Psychological realignments take place. And then there is the new beginning. People develop a new identity, experience new energy and purpose, and make change begin to happen. How to Get People to Let Go You start by identifying who will suffer losses and try to understand them. You sympathize publicly and permit people to grieve. Find ways to compensate (non-financial) for the losses, if possible. Of course, communication is a top priority, clearly defining details over and over is important. Ceremonies to “mark the ending” are appropriate to honor the past. Leading People Through the Neutral Zone Marilyn Ferguson, an American Futurist, has described the neutral zone as “Linus when his blanket is in the dryer. There is nothing to hold on to.” Anxiety and self-doubt are up; motivation and efficiency are down. Many...

...Why is it that when left with a blank sheet of paper, people sometimes can’t help but quiver? A sudden rush of fear and anxiety hangs over them. For a student or scholar in particular, it is not simply the beginning to reach the end of the test or the ‘be all end all’ in achieving something worthwhile in life. It provides the user with a key to delve into the realm of imagination with the purpose of gaining happiness or life’s true meaning. Imagination is something which is unique to ever individual on earth past or present, because like the world we live in, imagination is in constant change, adaption and always learning. When unlocked and encompassed with the power of the mind, imagination can achieve endless means in theory. For an artist this may be a chance to create something new, something colourful or perhaps even dark. For a scholar it creates a chance of expression through words. Right to expression however, is key to any successful contemporary or classical work most importantly. Whether for good or bad intentions it creates the basis for which to explore and perhaps even indulge. A blank canvas creates a new beginning. Like a second chance in life, an empty sheet can give an individual a new beginning and allows him/her to forget the past, it is no longer relevant, unless the artist depicts it that way. If it were not for blank canvases nothing new would ever be imagined just simply copied, tweaked and regurgitated in another...

...situation provides a huge amount of evidence to the theme of building relationships or serving others. This type of behavior is what police officers are wanted to do, to build a relationship with the community. Not only was the theme used to portray the author’s purpose, but also symbolism in the poem. Symbolism is another issue depicted in Old’s poem. Symbolism is used throughout the poem to describe the setting and to describe a new beginning. Olds states, “. . .while the man’s leg hung over the lip of the next world. . .” (74). This symbolizes how close the man was to falling to his death. The author writes, “. . .and the hairy net with its implacable grid was unfolded near the curb and spread out and stretched as the sheet is prepared to receive birth” (74). This represents his new chance of life, similar to a newborn out of its mother’s womb. Another form of symbolism is when the author states, “. . .and the red, glowing ends burned like the tiny campfires we lit at night back at the beginning of the world” (75). This is a representation of the new beginning this man acquired after he changed his mind. Symbolism is used to tie in the author’s purpose. The author’s purpose of the poem is to show awareness or inform us about the realities of suicide. Although Olds does not state it directly, we can draw inferences from her poem. Throughout her poem, she uses descriptive language to show the reader that even in hard times, positive outcomes are possible. Olds writes, “. . .and the...

...What is the relationship between rebranding and regeneration? Though the two concepts are often confused or used synonymously, rebranding and regeneration refer to two very different (but intrinsically linked) aspects of creating a new identity or “fresh start” for something, or somewhere. Regeneration typically refers to encouraging growth and restoration in an area that has previously displayed symptoms of decline, primarily the economy but also relating to other social, economic and environmental aspects of an area. Nonetheless, it is an essential aspect of creating a new beginning for an area because without a stable economic foundation, an area can struggle to grow and strive as it lacks the financial capability to continue expanding. Regeneration is seen as a long and continuous process that transforms a depleting area (in terms of economy and physical features) into a growing, stable area. Rebranding, however, refers to a much more varied and inclusive type of change – instead focussing on developing a place to change or improve its image and public opinion. This usually consists of two different actions: regeneration and reimaging. Rebranding as a concept usually includes regeneration as one of the two fundamental steps to positively transform or rebrand an area. Unlike regeneration, rebranding focuses on improving the actual physical infrastructure and environment of an area – the “inside” – as well as improving the public opinion towards the area and making...

...Enrolling in a college course was a new beginning for me because I haven’t been very good when it comes down to writing essays. But with the hard work and dedication that I put in this course I surprisingly became a much better one. I came into this class prepared, and knowing that it would be difficult and a new change compared to any other class I have taken before. This course has exposed me to many different writing technique and different writing skills that helped improve my writing in everyway possible. Throughout this English 1301 class I have learned self discipline, and how to handle stress. English is not quite my favorite subject, but during this course I discovered my weaknesses and strongest areas. As the days progressed during the course so did the challenges I had to overcome. One of my personal challenges I faced was the word count I had to meet in order to complete the assignment. By having a certain limit I had to reach not only made me use more details but challenged me in elaborating the topic I was talking about. In any college class you are expected to meet these high standards which I found very difficult but progressed within time and became better at writing more sufficient. Another obstacle I faced during the course was the four letter word time. Time played a crucial role in this course because it kept me from slacking off, and taught me to put school before anything else. At the beginning of the course we were given a syllabus of assignments...

...Sahebi, Sherwin Conrad vs. Achebe 1. From the tone of Conrad’s view of Africa, he gives it a dark and mysterious view of the forests is never ending and nothing is silent. 2. The detail he gives shows how African life never rests among the winding paths that rivers lead you and how he is always on his feet ready for the worst to happen. He talks about the air being thick and dense with the tall tress surrounding the area where sunshine was blocked from the forest bring a view of darkness and fear. 3. Achebe views Africa as a marvelous place where he thrives and people are happy living according to their belief. 4. The details given from her shows the happiness of the clan dancing to the ekwe, and corrects to a celebration of a man taking the title of his clan. 5. The reaction Achebe has to Conrad’s choices are anti-parallel to each other. In Achebe’s paragraph’s, differences of tone, syntax, and detail are shown. Achebe’s tone is very unique in the way she writes her paragraphs. In the first and second paragraph, she talks about the clans performing peaceful dances. “Then from the distance came the faint beating of the ekwe…” a peaceful dance from a distant clan. “It is an ozo dance,” the man said from themselves. Achebe uses the Ibo language to show a difference of tone to indicate how the clans would talk among themselves. Conrad’s style of tone is much more different from Achebe. He uses more of a suspenseful tone than anything. Conrad says “we penetrated deeper and deeper...

The companies’ first headquarters was in Albuquerque, New Mexico, but after signing some pivotal contracts with IBM, they moved to their headquarters in Bellevue, Washington in 1979.(History of Windows) Working side by side with IBM to develop OS/2, Microsoft released their new product, Microsoft Windows. It was a graphical extension of MS-DOS. On March 13th, 1986, Microsoft went public, which would result in 4 billionaires and an estimated 12,000 millionaires being created from the ensuing rise in stock.

The Federal Trade Commission set its sights on Microsoft and began almost a decade of legal battles between Microsoft and the...

...and a train. Now this does not sit well with someone when it is in the middle of winter and you feel like the city is just eating you up. It was at that point where I figured college life was not for me. Transitioning from a place where I knew plenty of people to an environment that was completely made of strangers also contributed to my decision on leaving college. Now here I am attending college, it feels like things have come full circle; I am now laying the foundation for my children setting the example that I did not have while I was growing up. As for my future, I am looking forward to gaining more experience through more watershed moments and hopefully I have the awareness to enjoy the transition from the ending to the new beginnings.

...viewpoint to Will’s, and in the movie it changes when we as viewer follows Marcus’s actions to Will’s. We know what Marcus and Will thinks, which gives us a perspective from several different angles and in this case keeps the story fresh and exciting. The author has done an incredibly good job, as he has managed not to lose the viewer/reader through the multiple viewpoints, and that is because the transitions are well done. The narrator is a 3rd person narrator and it is character-bounded to Marcus and Will. In the movie and the book, there are two main characters – Marcus and Will, who both are round characters because they develop much though the story. Marcus is a special 12-year old boy and seems very grown-up for his age. In the beginning of the story he is very influenced by his mother, Fiona, but as the story...

...The Beginning to Jazz Jazz History MUS 205 Three styles of music that contributed to what Jazz is today would be Work Songs, Country Blues, and City Blues. They have similar aspects that have built on one another making them familiar yet has enhanced them. They also have many differences that give them their unique sound. These styles have inspired artist to contribute to Jazz with their own flair. Their culture and back ground is what makes the music have the sole to reach the audience in ways they can relate. They have seen and felt the same tribulations the artist portrays. Work songs through their hypnotic rhythms were effectively used to have the workers keep pace. These work songs helped to coordinate single thrusts or pulls, yet the vocals were kept simple as to allow the laborers to concentrate on the work. The singer would use heavy rhythmic accents and the workers would join in with shouts at regular intervals throughout the song. This technique was called the call-response, the shouts or grunts signaled the moment of coordinated effort in their work. The structure of a work song was simpler than the 12 measure blues progression. When accompanied by instruments, it was usually a guitar accompaniment that was deceptively complex. The work song usually told a simple yet familiar story. The blues is single-handedly the root of jazz. Without the blues there would be no jazz as we know it today. About the same time the work song was in use, country blues was gaining significance...

Personal Narrative. 22nd October 2015. “Every day we are one step closer to filmmaking being as easy as taking out the brush and oils for a painting” (Veneruso, 1998). I was born in Barquisimeto, Venezuela on June 21, 1994. I grew up believing in self-expression, showing yourself and never hiding who you really are from others, part of my envelopment as a child and a teenager has been surrounded by political issues, involving my country into sad and hard situations, destroying our culture, education and economy, forcing and scaring the people who decided to trust into a different opinion against the government, those ones will be recognized as “Traitors” and “Enemies of the nation” at least that was the way they used to call them. The visual arts means to me as a way to escape from reality and open our minds to others, to make them understand that there’s a another world outside complete different as the one who we live in now. At the age of seven, my father took me into a Father-son trip to the beach, where he gave me my first camera, an Instant water proof Kodak, one of the most beautiful gifts that i’m still appreciating from hem. Since then I have been feeling a passion for the Films and Photography a passion who becomes an intuitive path that guides me through life. For me films are about romance, adventures, tears, laughs and smiles, more than recording with a video camera, doing a film involves...

Lighter materials, such as silicate minerals, migrate upwards in exchange. These silicate-rich materials may well have risen to the surface in molten form, giving rise to an initial magma ocean Early Earth heats up due to radioactive decay, compression, and impacts. Over time the temperature of the planet interior rises towards the Femelting line. After the initial segregation into a central iron (+nickel) core and an outer silicate shell, further differentiation occurred into an inner (solid) and outer (liquid) core (a pressure effect: solid iron is more densely packed than liquid iron), the mantel (Fe+Mg silicates) and the crust (K+Na silicates). Initially large portions of the crust might have been molten - the so called magma ocean. The latter would have cooled to form a layer of basaltic crust (such as is present beneath the oceans today). Continental crust would have formed later. It is probable that the Earth’s initial crust was remelted several times due to impacts with large asteroids...
