Assigned Entry #3

In this article I have divided opinions. I think it's great that students have different options to choose from, but I also believe it’s going to be very difficult to learn everything in a 7 ½ period of time. I like a 15 week semester. I think that you learn better if you learn it in deep. Having a medicine major I like having a full 15 weeks to learn chemistry. But in the other hand, I would love the idea of finishing a career faster. That instead of 4 years you only have to spend 2, although it is going to be harder. Like discussed in the comments not all subjects can be crammed into 7 and 1/2 weeks. People were discussing that Engineering would be very hard to take only in 7 ½ weeks and I totally agree. It would be a really bad idea to crammed a 15 weeks of work in just 7 1/2 .

Heart Attacks

 Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack, without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about 10 seconds left before losing consciousness. However, these victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and very vigorously. A deep breath should be taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest. A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again. Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and coughing movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm. In this way, heart attack victims can get to a hospital. Tell as many other people as possible about this. It could save their lives. Truth or false this is something that is very easy to do and that might just safe our lives.

 

 

Barefoot Foundation

  “Our mission in the Barefoot Foundation work to ensure that every Colombian child can exercise their right to a quality education. Our model targets displaced and vulnerable communities by addressing their unique needs,” Shakira. Most people know Shakira and think about a 5 foot Barbie looking singer that is extremely talented, but there is much more to know. One beautiful thing created by Shakira was the Barefoot Foundation. In 1997 just after releasing her first successful album Pies Descalsos, Shakira created the Barefoot Foundations to help many impoverished children in Colombia. Support for the Foundation comes from contributions by Shakira and donations from national and international companies who care about social responsibility. They also work with multilateral corporations who endorse special projects and have formed alliances with government agencies. During February, 2008, Shakira auctioned some of her tour clothes and guitars on eBay to support her foundation. Not only does she have 4 successful schools in Colombia; but recently Shakira, with the help of many people, launched her newest school in Africa. The schools are becoming more and more successful each year and another goal is to make schools like this one all over the world.

Assigned Entry #2

Fox News is a local as well as international news channel. In Arizona Fox is covered in channel 10. And since 1996 they have been covering the news with over 17 million views. But over the past few years we have come to the opinion that Fox News is heavily bias when talking about the Republican Party. In the past campaign according to Fox News Mitt Romney won all the debates. While other news channel made Obama the winner.

In the YouTube videos above it make it more clear the fact that Fox News favors the Republicans.
