Why is sex rampant nowadays to teenagers?

Why is sex rampant nowadays to teenagers? What do you think is the reason behind the deterioration of values, including self-destruction because the body is a temple of God? Well, the answer lies in how we interpret sex and how we bring up our kids to conform to the norms of spiritual living with the people around us. The upbringing of each child depends upon the family values and conservativeness wherein the family members are afraid of God. They are afraid that they might violate the 10 commandments, most especially the law of chastity. Carnal pleasure is normal, isn’t it? It is normal for every human being who is desirous of something like lust. According to LDS doctrine, chastity is sexual purity. Those who are chaste are morally clean in their thoughts, words, and actions. Chastity means not having any sexual relations before marriage. It also means complete fidelity to husband or wife during marriage. In this explanation, the carnal pleasure should be weeded out in God’s presence, and it should be done only if there is divine permission to procreate. So, carnal pleasure, once it is committed, is purely intended for the devil. Each one of us must avoid it and focus on or pay our attention to God’s eternal happiness. President Gordon B. Hinckley said “Pornography is the literature of the devil. Shun it. Stay away from it. Lift your sights and your minds to the higher and nobler things of life. Remember, ‘wickedness never was happiness’ (Alma 41:10). Sin never brought happiness. Transgression never brought happiness. Disobedience never brought happiness” (Brigham Young University devotional, 17 Oct. 1995).

Chloe's shocking experience

 Chloe was searching for evidence, opening her mind to everything around, investigating every room around the house. In the middle of her search she found a wedding ring at the rusty old garage. She carefully studied the ring. "Poof! Evidence!" She murmured. Chloe called the police, just about how many minutes the cops had arrived. Victoria, Mrs. Esperanza and Mr. Eugenio were surprised why in the world the cops were there. "Chloe, now what are you up to?" Victoria asked Chloe with brows up towards the sky. "Mom, this is simple, let me tell you a story of a lass named Christine. She was a resident in this village, about five years ago, she was the most beautiful lass...I mean very pretty, and there goes this man who was captured by the beauty of this innocent young woman.

Students understand why the language is the light and strength of a nation

 According to Education Secretary Armin Luistro, the month-long celebration of the national language is divided into five parts. From August 1 to 7, the focus is in giving importance to the national language which will be highlighted by taking to heart the lyrics of the national anthem. "I think this generation has to revisit and better appreciate the significance of every word and the depth of nationalism embodied in our national anthem," said Luistro. In a press release sent out a few weeks ago, DepEd said from August 8 to 14, the highlight is on the importance of the national language in enforcing discipline that will lead to national development. For this, the text of the pledge of allegiance to the Philippine flag will be dissected and put to heart. The schools are encouraged to stage plays and writing contests that emphasize why discipline is important in achieving progress.

A fundamental cycle to reach out for the welfare of others

 Each of us should be a friend to all, a servant to the church callings like doing a missionary work. We should be resorting to "all about service," in general. We must show love and energy; besides, we serve as church and home teachers to those members and families who are in need of temporal and spiritual services. Our family members must assist us in doing such a noble act-to be actively involved in home teaching activities. We must encourage others to go home teaching, make the appointments to visit the families, check up on them during the month and truly love them so much as we love ourselves. Anybody who is truly serving the Omnipotent Being will help us understand that we can find joy from the simplest things in our lives. Each of us has also shown and reminded of the spiritual things that are very important to mankind regardless of races. We should not be skeptical about the ability of those around us. The Omnipotent Being does not doubt our abilities, and neither should we.

Wide policy dissemination and study of English as the main foreign language

In connection with this, the Filipino linguist-researchers feel the need to study foreign languages like English and French to be utilized in teaching language and literature subjects in both the secondary and tertiary levels in the Philippines, aside from the primary level, so as to assess the conditions of the target language revolving particularly in the stratified contemporary levels of educational system. The UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization) promotes a program for the wide policy dissemination and study of English as the main foreign language. In conjunction with this, through the amendment and reform advocated by DepEd (Department of Education), it has already brought along with it the RBEC (Revised Basic Education Curriculum) in which the in-depth study of universal language is highly regarded, and it is very essential to the grade weight per learner.

Temporal bridge between thankfulness and happiness

 In order for us not to experience misery, tribulation and other painful emotions that come along the way, we must have an honest intention and a thankful heart for everything we receive from God. We catch sight of our lives the temporal bridge between thankfulness and happiness. All of us would like to feel gratitude despite our shortcomings and inequities, yet it is not so facile to be consistently thankful for all the things in the pitfalls or trials of life, for life itself is enigmatic and inevitable to predict. Illnesses, frustrations and bad experiences of the people we love so much unexpectedly come at times in our lives. We also experience bad things like sorrows which are the most stressful feelings hurled against any miserable human being on earth. These sorrows can make one's life so miserable and make life so hard to fathom and see God's mercy and blessings, and to appreciate the blessings God has in store for us, especially the adherents of God's gospel or the 10 commandments in the future.

Teachers are gifts from God

The effective teachers must have the mastery of the subject matter. That is true! According to Dr. Adolfo, in order for them to gain the mastery of the subject matter, they have to know first the fundamental rules or principles of absorbing the contents or subject matters before imparting all-out knowledge to their students.

He also said that in the field of education, most of us believe that teaching is a multifaceted human activity for it entails a wide range of teaching approaches, interactions, planning, organizational arrangement and material resources that transpire within the four walls of the classroom and in the teaching-learning process.

Teachers should encourage their students to ask questions, to give their viewpoints, reactions or comments. The teacher should help and motivate students learn how to ask interesting questions. The teacher’s own questioning strategy will serve as a model or a pattern to all the learners. It is indispensable that the teacher allows certain flexibility in the manner that the learners are doing their assigned tasks.

The teacher should involve the students in planning their own ways of gathering data to test their hypothesis. Creativity will in effect enhance their own methodologies of managing their own learning activity. It is also supported by another explanation that the teacher's deeper sense of purpose includes maintaining an attentive attitude towards conflicts among children. The classroom environment fosters numerous interactions among children on a daily basis, creating the largest social component of a child's life.

Shaping a child's social development, therefore, falls on the teacher who takes on the role of mediator and coach. As far as the roles of teacher are concerned, Gregorio expounded on the several roles that…since learning is an active process on the part of the learner, it is not possible for the teacher to learn for the student. In a very real sense, the teacher cannot make the student learn, but the former can have a tremendous influence on learning.

English is the main source of outsourcing industry in the Philippines

Outsourcing firms in Cebu, Philippines, started a few years and tremendously make a boom up to now. In fact, there are pros and cons of outsourcing, but one thing to make it sure that here in Cebu, it soars high on top of the others. Outsourcing is being done in roughly 2/3rds of organizations for three principal “information technology” reasons: cost savings, efficiency and business value– and to cushion the impact on global IT dissemination and at the same time to level the playing field for small organizations. Presently, outsourcing takes many forms.

Organizations hire service providers to handle distinct business processes, such as benefits management. But some organizations outsource whole operations. The most common forms are information technology outsourcing and business process outsourcing.

A few preliminary questions had been asked for us to respond to the IT needs in Cebu, Philippines. The type of job is highly recommended and it is the chosen company to work with among the Cebuanos as Filipinos in general. Here are the prerequisite questions and the rest will ensue with, based on the contents of the article to be used for further IT clarity, IT emphasis and IT coherence.

1. So, what is outsourcing?
2.  Is Philippine business process outsourcing a smart move?
3.  Is outsourcing becoming a common development among specific industries and services?
4.  In the area of call centers, is end-user-experience deemed to be of lower quality when a service is outsourced?
5.  Is this exacerbated when outsourcing is combined with off shoring to regions where the first language and culture are different?
6.  Is the questionable quality particularly evident when call centers that service the public are outsourced and off shored?
7.  Does business process outsourcing encompass call center outsourcing, human resources outsourcing, finance and accounting outsourcing, and claims processing outsourcing?
8.  Does outsourcing take many forms with regard to organizations that still hire service providers to handle distinct business processes, such as benefits management?
9.  What are the knowledge and skills required and needed by call center agents?

All of these questions can be answered categorically based on the knowledge and skills which are absolutely required and needed by the call center agents, among others. Based on the experiences, knowledge, skills, customary ways and practices here in Cebu, Philippines, a lot of things, being involved in outsourcing industry, will take into account and will greatly ease the tension of a call center agent himself. It is inevitable to have engaged in telecommunications and sometimes, a call center agent makes experience something awful and something odd.

Everything is part of the job once you are paid to do business in outsourcing company. Your main job is to have the telephone with you because this is mainly connected with your daily task as a call center agent. You have to possess the knowledge and skills in order for you not to put behind others because telecommunication business is a competition so you have to prepare for it and be knowledgeable of everything in outsourcing business.

As far as the telephones are concerned, they are used as an everyday part of business and often aided in your customers a first impression of your company that you are connected with. You have to possess and identify telephone skills needed to be successful and more professional. It provides strategies to enable you to give your callers the quality service they deserve. You have to influence your customers with great pride and perception of the company. Once you are hired, you have to look after the knowledge and skills that you have possessed yourself. You may use them in day-to-day activities in the outsourcing company. What is the call center? Why is it connected to the outsourcing industry? The call center is a dynamic and fast-paced department.

Outsourcing has the potential to deliver ongoing budget savings as well as business benefits, depending on the outsourced function. It is a highly-structured operating environment where constant change is the norm. Having said that, a typical call center agent should possess and must have the  profile that includes himself if the following skills set requirements: 1) Excellent oral and written communication and interpersonal skills; 2) Professional and courteous demeanor; 3)  Ability in multitasking through a fast-paced, high-volume environment; 4) Excellent problem-resolution skills; 5) Strong systems skills; 6) Ability to meet established productivity, effectiveness, training, sales  and quality goals; 7) Ability to work in a highly-structured environment; and 8) Ability to accept and learn whatever tasks are given to him without complaints for personal advantage and promotion.

To dig deeper into the importance of outsourcing, what is outsourcing success all about? Here in the Philippines, we have a large pool of information technology – a call center to do business with. We can communicate well with other country in terms of telecommunication because of this outsourcing business. English is the universal language, that is the main reason why the Filipinos are adept at speaking in English. English uttered by the Cebuanos is based on American and British accents. Like all the companies that hired skilled workers in IT, English is the main source of outsourcing industry that provides us with greater advantage over the other country as far as telecommunication is concerned.

To reiterate, outsourcing has the potential to deliver ongoing budget savings as well as business benefits, depending on the outsourced function. It got a bad wrap in the past with a lot of major firms that were taking advantage of the worldwide economic difference, but in the process took precedence and advantage of their overseas staff and were paying them below minimum wage. Other countries can still catch up as far as outsourcing industry is concerned.

Outsourcing can be a good or bad business—depending on the gravity of workloads/assignments. It is a thing for the economy, whether it gives a moral or not. But it can also be a bad thing, sometimes. Companies today both large and small organizations do not have the capacity to display and manufacture every component of an end product they are getting ready for sale.  This is a good thing as this creates the need for additional jobs provided the market is good for the product being manufactured and assembled.  The key to outsourcing is choosing the resource that can provide the quality product or service in completing an end product.

The central figure in all teaching activities

Without formal and informal education, in my point of view, life is futile, values will become crippled, progress impedes to uplift and stability stagnates whatever directions that may guide or point to. Setting a benchmark of quality education is just like a free public education worldwide for the masses, and let our poor parents from depressed areas welcome this laudable act when it was implemented a long time ago. It is a big help because students can enroll without cash involved. It is mandated that all tuition fees are free, and public schools can not compel parents to pay any fee during enrollment--the school used to ask for certain amount upon enrollment to back up school expenses. These are voluntary contributions, although the government says it is free!

The success of the campus newspaper depends to a large extent on the adviser or moderator

Perhaps, some of us don’t know precisely the definitions of journalism. A prolific and popular journalist and writer, Jose A. Quirino, defines journalism as “literature in a hurry.” This is so, because day-to-day newspaper reporters seldom have the luxury of time in writing their news stories; they have deadlines to meet. Another well-known journalist F. Fraser Bond defines journalism as “something that embraces all forms in which and through which the news and comments on the news reach the public. All that happens in the world, if such happenings hold interest for the public, and all the thoughts, actions, and ideas which these happenings stimulate become materials for the journalist.”

In this Season of the Church Calendar, we celebrate as Christ rises from the dead

Easter memories are really amazing and the memories which we can never be forgotten even in the ancient practices are deeply rooted in our hearts. Our God, The Almighty, saves us from our transgressions or inequities, and we have to find ways to blot out our sins. Resorting to being committed such a sin is inevitable, but if we are dedicated and so much devoted to Him, God loves us eternally despite our shortcomings and weaknesses. Unending love is scattered everywhere just to remember God and to make everyone eternal concerning spiritual activities and righteously follow what our Savior has redeemed for us. Aside from Christmas celebration, Easter is also a special day because Jesus Christ is not born but He is really reborn. It is also the time when we sanctify ourselves with God for the eternal blessings. He has done so much to mankind—redeeming us from inequities. Due to our warm and heartfelt prayers, He always forgives us no matter what our sins are.

Throughout the ages, Philippines has been colonized by different countries such as Spain, Japan and the U.S.

Filipinos are known for their tradition to welcome their guests warmly in their home. Filipinos came from three main races, namely, the Malays, the Indus and the Itas. However, throughout the ages, Philippines has been colonized by different countries such as Spain, Japan and the U.S. Due to this colonization, we have been mixed by different races. The first invaders to colonize the Philippines were the Spaniards. This country was reigned by them for over 333 years. Their main reason for doing this was that the 3 initial letters like GGG—gold, glory and God. During their time, women were treated unequally and Filipinos were stripped off by their rights in their own homeland. We have also adopted many things, especially the amalgamated West and East cultures from them, and the most important thing of all was Christianity.

Two of the most famous and widely spread devices are the internet and television. If one wants to impose information on gadgets to the public, these two are what you need.

Now, there are three major stations vying for the people’s attention. However, the problem with television is that…it is not connected worldwide. You have to connect first to a cable company, and not all can view your video or information you have posted all the time because it is scheduled.

Teachers’ services that deal with classroom difficulties

Dealing with classroom difficulties may sometimes encounter problems that are inevitable to solve in a short period...that’s why careful dealing should be given utmost importance. Students are too harsh and disruptive with regard to learning attitudes towards the teachers and the subjects they have enrolled and learned.

My Favorite Spring Hobby

Philippines is a tropical country and so, for this reason, we experience only two seasons--summer and rain. But, as a Filipino in nature, we feel like loving the views of the mountaintops, valleys and the horizon above us. With the seasons we have, each of them will not be a hindrance to imagine spring in the Philippines. It's quite funny, but I really want to experience spring. Moving on, my favorite spring hobby is going out and enjoying the beauty of nature. I find it relaxing to sit down beside a tree and looking at the surroundings filled with different colors, thus making me alive all day long. I also like picking flower that may have bloomed to its greatest size, adding up to the beauty of the environment. I also like lying down the green grass during the afternoon, witnessing the flock of birds flying and going home to their lands after autumn of each country which the birds are experiencing it. Likewise, I'm a nature lover and I never get bored when I'm with it.

The Spaniards conquered our country, the Philippines, for almost 333 years.

My mother is working in a private learning institution, but her salary cannot suffice us with the basic commodities. All the prices in the market are gone up. How can we survive, then? Is there a law to repel this present minimum wage and replace it with the highest standard of the salary to be given to every employee? It is impossible to alter this law without the majority of the lawmakers in the Philippines to amend it and pave the way to the salary-standardization law.
