...To get into a college should cost much money; therefore, lots of students would look for a part-time job for helping to share the burden of their parents. And other students who want to have a part-time job are mostly because they want to get some social experiences. However, the students who have a part-time job have less time to keep interpersonal relationship, stay healthy, and study. To have a good interpersonal relationship in college is very important. Making good use of the time after school to join the associations, going out or discussing lessons with classmates after school all can improve the skills of social interactions. Nevertheless, the part-time job takes the students most of the time after school. So the students who have a part-time job after school might lose the chance to make friends, and build up desirable interpersonal relationships. To keep up the health is important but difficult to the students who have to work after school due to some reasons. First, the students who have to work after school might have to stay up to do their homework or reports; second, they might use their rest time to work; third, their immunity against disease might decrease. Therefore, it could be difficult for them to keep their health. Also they might sleep in classes or miss the classes because of insufficient rest and sleep as the result of long-time working after school. To focus on studying is the duty of students; however, it is usually difficult to those...

LEWIN social-networking sites (sNs) such as Facebook and Twitter are growing in both popularity and number of users.

...marginally successful. Hence, Willy fantasizes about lost opportunities for wealth, fame, and notoriety. Even so, it would be incorrect to state that Miller solely criticizes Willy. Instead, Miller demonstrates how one individual can create a self-perpetuating cycle that expands to include other individuals. This is certainly the case within the Loman family. Until the end of the play, Willy effectively blocks the affair out of his memory and commits himself to a life of denial. He cannot remember what happened, so naturally he does not understand why his relationship with Biff has changed. Willy wants Biff’s affection and adoration as before, but instead the two constantly argue. Willy vacillates, sometimes criticizing Biff’s laziness and inepti- tude, other times praising his physical abilities and ambition....

...children are getting into by eating too many daily calories. The obesity rate is increasing, and according to Wayne Altman, this current generation is the first to have a lower life expectancy than its parents. Moreover, McDonald’s has agreed to simplify the calorie mass of their happy meals, but has disagreed to letting Ronald McDonald go (Altman). Marketers have realized that this generation of children is appearing to be more tech savvy than past generations. Children are entertained by technology, and marketers have decided to take advantage of this fact. “Teens spend 12.6 hours engaged with media per day” (Harris Interactive Youth and Education Research). Hence, about seven out of ten teens have cell phones, mentions Trends and Tudes. Lots of children of all ages use cell phones for playing on apps, or games. Lots of games have sponsors, which means that the sponsors want their items to be shown. Marketers fit in their advertisements through tech games, which forces children to look at them. The more appealing the ad is, the more the child wants to know about it, and then eventually buy the advertised product. ...

...Um dia de modernidade Analisando primeiramente o contexto em que o filme está inserido, podemos ver que tude se passa em uma cidade grande onde o ritmo é frenético, cuja sociedade vive uma vida com muito estress e problemas, o que causa desentendimentos com outras pessoas (até mesmo da sua própria família) decorrente de causas banais. Uma sociedade que tem como tipo ideal um individuo que trabalha muito para assim ganhar dinheiro, podendo consumir tudo que ele deseja. Em meio a esse contexto, está o personagem principal do trama (Bill Foster), um sujeito cujo controle emocional é quase nulo, se descontrola facilmente, demonstrando seu temperamento violento. Fica intendido que o fato de ele nao poder chegar proximo a sua ex-mulher e a sua filha deve-se a essa sua personalidade. Além do fato de ele nao poder entrar em contato com sua família, ele estava desempregado. Ele assim se sente preso nessa sociedade de ritmo acelerado, de estress e consumismo. Ele se vê como um derrotado perante a uma sociedade de valores nos quais ele não está inserido, valores que dizem que todos devem trabalhar, ganhar dinheiro, consumir, e ser feliz com a sua família. Já ele está desempregado, nao ganha dinheiro, nao pode consumir, e nao tem mais sua familia por estar impedido de se aproximar dela. Esses sao os principais fatos que o levam a todas as acoes que ele toma no filme contra esse mundo moderno que ele está incerido. Bernardo Simoes im.S: onde voce esta encaixado no mundo...

...During a recent MAFFS rotation my crew and I discussed books we were currently reading. TSgt Reed Scott filled me in on a book he’s working on called Leaders Eat Last authored by Simon Sinek. Intrigued however, I googled the title and came across a YouTube video of Simon Sinek’s seminar covering the same material. The video was about 45 minutes and began with Sinek describing a two ship of A-10’s in Af-ghanistan which, despite a low cloud deck, provided troops in contact with a series of suppressive fire until they depleted their ammunition saving all 21 lives of the sol-diers below engaged in the fight. Sinek’s question then was where do people/leaders like these A-10 pilots come from? What are these people made of who serve and sacrifice so others may live? Are they born or are they made leaders? Sinek finishes offers suggestions for his audience to try in their work environment in an effort to increase trust in leadership. The desired outcome being a workplace where people come to work and feel safe. Safe to explore ideas, voice concerns, or suggest a different way of doing things without fear of retribution. What this would look like is rather than a group of leaders/managers in an inner circle of trust with the remaining employees outside of that circle, this circle would encompass everyone in the workplace. Sounds great; sounds simple. But how could we ever accomplish this? Really it boils down to how we treat each other and how we communicate with each other. Take email...

...always forgave me when I was running late, when I couldn’t spend as much time together because I had three small babies, when we moved her from the only house she knew. Because she is just a dog, she loved me at my worst, thought a walk was a gift, and only needed food, a cool place to lay down, and a butt rub to have the best day ever. Because she is just a dog, she never let me down, never held a grudge, never got mad. She was the perfect companion and the perfect friend — solely because she was just a dog. Like most couples, my husband and I got our first dog soon after getting married and purchasing a new house. She was a beautiful Shetland sheepdog that looked just like a mini Lassie. She was supposed to be a show dog, so she brought a ‘tude along with her pedigree. We named her Napa after the wine region, and she was sweet, but a little aloof. Because I thought dog number one was lonely, I begged persuaded my husband to get a second dog and eventually I wore him down. I found another breeder and ended up picking the runt of the litter; a scruffy, little sheltie that crawled right into my arms. She had me at the first wet lick on the nose even though her breath smelled like worms. I brought home Carnie (named after Carneros, another wine region in Sonoma) when she was just 10 and a half weeks old. Like any good pet mom, I loved both my puppies the same, except one wanted to be loved on her terms, and the other, Carnie, became my shadow. She is the dog that loves you so much she...

...Optional Paper: Them four: The student-teacher constructivism avoids two extremes: 1) subjective opinion not based on objective knowledge or the exclusion of humans' innate desire for knowledge and for meaning and moral right action. objective knowledge consisting of memorization of facts or blindly submitting to an ideology such as the patriarchal, philosophic perspective of liberal education or scientific positivism Many of the moral guidelines set out by society are based on the innate knowledge of right from wrong. Religions have established laws or commands, from their particular gods, that reflect this knowledge. They are, in a way, correct in interpreting it thus; for universal codes are the laws of nature, and subsequently, part of the universal order. For living things, other than man, there is no right and wrong, no good and evil; they simply follow the laws that nature has set out. From a human perspective, we can say that other creatures do only what is right, because no alternative exists for them. Humans have the capacity to conceive of ways that are contrary to the laws of nature, due to our intelligence, and ability to reason in the abstract; other life cannot: but perhaps that is an example of wisdom. The philosophical/historical work of Michel Foucault has been studied in humanities courses as diverse as gender studies and rhetoric. Despite this fact, his insights have been difficult to appropriate in the realm of education. In part, this is because...

...PREFIXES A prefix is placed at the beginning of a word to modify or change its meaning. This is a list of the most common prefixes in English, together with their basic meaning and some examples. You can find more detail or precision for each prefix in any good dictionary. The origins of words are extremely complicated. You should use this list as a guide only, to help you understand possible meanings. But be very careful, because often what appears to be a prefix is not a prefix at all. Note also that this list does not include elements like "auto-" or " bio-", because these are "combining forms", not prefixes.

...´ ´ ETAT PRESENT WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CATHOLIC NOVEL? TOBY GARFITT MAGDALEN COLLEGE, OXFORD The idea of a specifically Catholic novel arose during the nineteeth century. The often anti-Catholic agenda of the philosophes and the libertine novel had been counterbalanced by writers such as Rousseau and Bernardin de Saint-Pierre, who sought to reveal God through the wonders of the natural world. But it was Chateaubriand’s Atala (1801) that inaugurated the new genre of the Catholic novel as a riposte to the dechristianization associated with the Revolution. Chateaubriand was more partial to the epic, however, and in this he was followed by Bonald, who appreciated the scope that the epic afforded for the depiction of ‘le merveilleux chretien’, including angels.1 An interesting ´ twentieth-century representative of this tradition is Patrice de La Tour du Pin, ´ whose three-volume Somme de poesie (1946 – 63) charts the progression from lyrical poetry in a neo-Romantic vein, through a process of kenosis or selfemptying (which involves a shift towards prose in the second volume), to the ´ ´ creation of a new theopoesie.2 Epic poetry continued to offer a means of exploring religious and scientific ideas throughout the nineteenth century (Quinet, Hugo, Bouilhet), but there was already a backlash by the 1820s, and, as the novel rapidly established itself as the major literary genre, a number of Catholic sub´ genres developed. The ‘Avant-propos’ to Balzac’s Comedie humaine expresses nostalgia...

...3. At række hånden frem Jeg kunne tydelig huske, hvordan dagene altid var noget lort. De dage, der fik mig til at tage den beslutning, som jeg var på vej til at fuldføre ude på en af skolernes toiletter. Mor og far råbte og skreg af hinanden derhjemme, og jeg sad på mit værelse med techno musikken kørende i baggrunden, selvom jeg hadede techno musik. Det var bare for at få mine tanker over på noget andet end den elendighed, der hele tiden hang over mig som et tæppe. Jeg stirrede ud af vinduet på de mørke, grå skyer, der passede perfekt til hele stemningen. Jeg magtede ikke noget. Alt, hvad jeg brugte min tid på, var at synke længere og længere ned i det dybe hul, der havde skabt sig omkring mig, og jeg kunne ikke gøre en skid for at komme op igen. Mine veninder opdagede min hemmlighed, og jeg var blevet sendt til psykolog, selvom jeg havde skreget og råbt i protest. Hele skolen kendte til mig nu, og alt var blevet værre. Jeg havde fået så mange haters, der sendte grimme beskeder til mig dagligt, som om de, jeg fik i forvejen, ikke var nok. Hvad var der helt galt med verdenen, siden folk ikke kunne respektere hinanden? Psykologen fortalte mig efter min ufuldførte beslutning, at jeg havde fået en svær depression. Ha, hvordan kunne en depression føles som ingenting? Burde man ikke kunne mærke en smerte i sin bryst eller noget? Det eneste, jeg mærkede, var, at jeg ikke havde lysten til det her mere. Hvorfor kunne jeg ikke bare få det overstået dengang? Jeg borede neglene...
