Moving on After a Relationship Break-up by Joi Sigers

One of the most difficult things a person can endure is the loss of a relationship. While the death of a loved one eclipses this loss, a break-up is also, in its own rights, a permanent loss. The relationship, which was once alive and filled with hope has now ceased to exist, leaving at least one of the people involved filled with emptiness and sadness. The following words are intended to provide insight, comfort, and (in our fondest hopes) encouragement. They are directed to the individual who knows that reconciliation is not an option.

When I hear from someone who is going through a romantic breakup, my heart truly breaks for them. Someone they loved is no longer theirs to love and the sadness in their words tells of, not only hearbreak, but a loss of self as well. It seems that one cannot go through a romantic loss without feeling that it's their fault, or that something is wrong with them. Before going any further, let's put an end to that myth immediately. People of all weights, heights, classes, looks and sizes have people who love them. There is no one "mold" that love-worthy people are cut from. Anyone who would insist on someone fitting into a certain mold isn't worth your time, let alone your heart. (More times than not, they aren't exactly cut from Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie's cloth, either!)

In general, breakups happen because the two simply can't find happiness together. Either one or the other realizes that they aren't a perfect match and they decide that it's time to move on. Often they move on, emotionally, long before they move on physically. Aloofness, coldness, a tendency to start arguments are all signs of someone beginning to pull away.

Even though it can be the hardest thing in the world to do, you have to let them go. If you plus him or her do not add up to both of you being happy, the equation isn't meant to be. For your own sake, as well as theirs, let go and move on - allowing them to do the same. The man or woman of your dreams may be just around the corner waiting for you. If you don't move on, you'll never find them!

How do you deal with the sadness in the meantime? First of all, stop kicking yourself. You are worthy of being loved! This particular relationship failed, you didn't. Learn from this lesson and move past it. Don't keep thinking about this person, by doing so you're just giving them more and more power to hurt you.

There's a great saying, "If you want a certain trait, act as though you all ready have it." I can't overstate how much truth lies in these words. Act as though you've moved on, and before you know it - you will have moved on. When you see this person in public, don't look at them waiting for them to see you or speak - just go about your business, smile and live your life. Life's too short and precious not to be lived with a smile on your face.

Whatever you do, don't let thoughts of making this person jealous, or thoughts of bitterness enter into your mind. You're much better than that! Just keep saying, "I'm moving on." Pretty soon, you will have done just that.

In the meantime, keep busy. Volunteer to work more hours, if that's an option. Choose an author who you've never read before and start reading each and every one of their books. John Grisham, Dean Koontz, Nicholas Sparks - they each have plenty of great books to choose from. Koontz, alone, has a gazillion you could tackle. He's my personal favorite author, so I may be biased, but I'd grab "Watchers", "Midnight" or "Odd Thomas" and then move on from there. When reading Koontz, you can't feel anything but goosebumps. If you're a little timid, stick with Sparks (my next favorite) - he's incredibly gifted but without the demons, monsters, aliens, etc.

If you have someone to talk to, do so. But try to move past conversations centering around the loss as soon as possible. Concentrate on what you have rather than what you've lost.

Above all, remember, love will come around again. But if you're looking BACk you'll miss it! Look forward, wear your best smile, and concentrate on getting the most from life. This sort of mentality and lifestyle will attract the sort of person you need in your life. The sort of person who'll make you smile so much your face hurts. He or she is out there waiting for you, maybe even going through what you're going through right now. The sooner you move on, the sooner you'll find real, lasting love. You deserve it!

Research of Methods [assign.9]

In your own understanding, what's the difference between "METHOD" and "METHODOLOGY"?


Methodology is the analysis of the principles of methods, rules, and postulates employed by a discipline, the analysis of such method & task for doing it best and it is the studies of the such task while method is a no of option that we have to do any task.

Methodology is something which is organised, documented set of procedures and guidelines for one or more phases of the software life cycle, such as analysis or design.

Example:

if environment survey is done so we have many option to do we used such method, which give the accuracy it is called methodology.

What do you think is the role of research topic in deciding your future career?

Everybody will say we are responsible for own future. We are the one who will decide what path to take and maybe in the end face the consequences in every decision we made. No one will be blame when that time comes but our own self.

Writing an essay and term papers are far different from writing a research paper, its not just an ordinary and opinionated idea but you need to have resources and valid documentations that will support your topic and research.

As I am taking my degree course (BSCS), I was able to encounter different aspect of hardships, right now I am taking up my Research methods, SAD2 and SE2 and its very hard much harder than SAD1 and SE1, for we have to squeeze all the ideas we have in order to fulfill what we have started last semester.

Research itself means HOPE, a hope for new inventions or improvements, which will help mankind in the near future. Research takes a lot of dedication to be implemented; it demands a lot of you as the developer or researcher. Just like in real life, you must be very determined to achieve whatever goals you have set in your life. Research means GATHERING of data, information and facts for the advancement of knowledge, this definition can be compared to building up our own future, building your future is not just setting it up because that’s what you wanted it to be, there are many factors to be considered and you need a lot of gathering; gathering your emotions, determination and be optimistic for you to be prepare for whatever consequences you may encounter, you need valid assumptions of what you should do to prevent failure as much as you could, though failures and obstacles are spices to life, but if there’s a way to prevent this then prevent it.

Research in strict scientific definition is performing a methodical study in order to prove a hypothesis or answer a specific question. In life, while you are in the way of achieving your goals and molding your future, you must have a definite answer and like to pursue. There’s no turning back once you have step the first way to success, you must be able to prove to yourself that what you have choose is the best for you. You a need lots of courage and determination for you to go on. You as the one who will molding your future, you need to ask yourself what you like and think it over and over if thats what you really like.

Research must be SYSTEMATIC and follow a series of steps and a rigid standard protocol, from the word itself, “systematic”, our life and path to take are not constant, as what the old saying goes: : life is a constant change”. Every now and then you may encounter disagreements and discouragement but its up to you on how would you handle it, if you let outside factors intrude and destroy you then there no way out in pursuing whatever you have in your heart.

Research involves a very risky and critical way of decision making and for you to decide is you need a lot of time and meditation for you to be enlightened to what you may decide in the end.

Research involves TOPIC, and topic can be best describe as your objective in life, it will serve as your bases as you go along. It will serve as the pushing you to go on and we all know, choosing a topic in research is very hard, you must think and have some resources about it to fully understand what your topic should do and who will benefit to it. You need to brainstorm whatever is possible and know all the assignment requirements. In life perception, you goal must be achievable by you and it can give an encouragement to pursue.

Decisions you make will be the foundation of your future, since you were the one who decided it and everything will follow.

I may not say that research would the basis to whatever God has install me for the future but I know definitely it will affect me as a Computer Science Student. I think research will help me improve myself, my character and the way I handle every situation and even may change the way I think of the things that surrounds me. It will make me to be a better person and student. Research will open up my mind as to what I am taking right now, its hard (absolutely!) but I know its a part of growing up and taking your responsibilities as an individual, as a person and as a student.

What are your preferences on choosing file formats to use in certain applications?

Selecting the proper file format for your final artwork or project can mean the difference between having a usable document and a worthless collection of zeros and ones recorded to magnetic media. The file format should be determined by the image's final destination; for example, the Web has different requirements than do page layout programs. Even the Web design or page layout program you use can make a difference in what format to choose.

Within the broad categories of Web and print, additional choices need to be made. The file content will help you determine which format to choose.

their is no such thing as placing your own loved one. it depends on what you needed and I don't have any right to give my own idea because I don't know where to start. said, "The file format should be determined by the image's final destination; for example, the Web has different requirements than do page layout programs. Even the Web design or page layout program you use can make a difference in what format to choose."

what is your idea about standard-setting organizations and its relation to open standards?

So, as to what I have read and understand to the article that I have read, it states their that the distribution of standards which are created by developers of standards are of intellectual property (are legal property right over creations of the mind, both artistic and commercial, and the corresponding fields of law.) just like any other publications which are protected by copyright laws and international treaties. Except for those central governments who produces standards (public domain) which are not amenable to any copyright law.

Before SSO exists, their where lots of standards organizations existing but because of the fast evolution of technology existing standards organizations having hard times in dealing with it, that is why the SSO was created as new class of standard setters.

The scope of work of SSO: The developers of technical standards are generally concerned with interface standards, which detail how products interconnect with one another, and safety standards, which establish characteristics required for a product or process to be safe for the humans, animals and environment. The subject of their work can be narrow or broad.

So to the question, what is the relation of SSO to open source is that (based on my understanding) it is clearly connected since all open source of even propriety softwares needs standards inorder for it to fit to human need. I agree with what Mr. Mejares has said "They are only concerned about creating a "Standard". So in effect you could say that the SSO created the Universal Standard and both the proprietary sector and the "open" groups incorporate these "universal" standards into their products."

COMDDAP Event.

COMDDAP (Computer Manufacturer Distributors and Dealers Association of the Philippines) held victorious seminars, orientations, exhibits. Other manufacturers have given freebies for all who have attended the exhibit and or contribute in their activities. It was entertaining studying those technologies (manufacturers) nowadays that they have time to launch it and made a exhibit for 3days at Grand Ballroom, Apo Bayview Hotel, here at Davao City last July 2-4, 2009.

At first, I was thrilled to be at the said affair especially for Computer related courses. We will not just meet new acquaintances but we are able to know the latest inclination of technology. Credit to the COMDDAP for having we invited for their exhibits. Many schools have participated in the said event; we have the University of Mindanao, Ateneo de Davao, STI, USEP and many other schools that offer computer related courses.

The COMDDAP scheduled 4 orientations per day so that all students or guests who would like to attend will be accommodated since the area that they've rented for orientations is diminutive. I and my fellow colleagues were scheduled on Thursday (July 02, 2009) for the orientation. The scheduled orientations must be registered online on their site www.comddap.org since it has limited seats only. We are fortunate to avail one of their orientations.

I have attended the 2-4pm session and the speaker of the Jupiter was Mr. Celster Santos. He discusses about the Jupiter Systems Inc. The said company tackles about the ERIC DMS (Brilliant Dealer Management System). The DMS has general features of:

a.) Monitor Sales Executive Activities
b.) Sales lead monitoring from Initial Inquiry to Actual Close.
c.) Sales quotation processing
d.) Support sales of new & used vehicles
e.) Multiple pricing & discounting schemes
f.) Financing & Insurance transactions
g.) Vehicle Inventory
h.) Customer incident & resolution recording
i.) Interface to Manufacturer system
j.) Reports & Queries
k.) Highly Graphical technician assignments & loading window
l.) Customer appointments
m.) Repair orders & estimates
n.) Customer/Vehicle Service history
o.) Technician time-in/time-out
p.) Parts requisitioning
q.) Control parts & Consumable costs

This general feature of their system was discussed during our session at the four corners of the room. As we are opening the discussion, its kind of tiresome because all I thought was we are to discussed about vehicles and the likes but I was totally wrong, yes, we are to discussed about vehicles but vehicles here are just their examples, what they are trying to utter is about the system they are using for their business as dealers of cars. The system is so big, big enough to suffice a large group. What was good about the system is that it can be broken into parts that the customers wants to have. For example the company or establishment needed the customer's application only, the company need not to buy the entire system but the systems or applications they just needed.

Then the part 2 of the discussion was the HP and Nexus. They are about to introduce us about their product: the Thin Client. Thin Client or Lean provides the highest degree of knowledge and experienced in the design and delivery of advanced Server Based and Virtual Computing solutions. It’s a big help for our environment since it saves power, long term of life cycle, uses small space or u can just have it used at the back of your monitor, beside or under your computer table, is a low-cost, centrally-managed computer devoid of CD-ROM players, diskette drives, and expansion slots.

The term derives from the fact that small computers in networks tend to be clients and not servers. Since the idea is to limit the capabilities of these computers to only essential applications, they tend to be purchased and remain "thin" in terms of the client applications they include. As software as a service (SaaS) gains popularity, it is expected that thin clients and blade PC's will replace desktop PCs in many work and educational environments. In general, they are not as vulnerable to malware attacks, have a longer life cycle, use less power and are less expensive to purchase.
Thin client is also used to describe software applications that use the client-server model where the server performs all the processing.

Advantages of Thin Client:
• Lower IT administration costs.
• Easier to secure.
• Enhanced data security.
• Lower hardware costs.
• Less energy consumption.
• Easier hardware failure management.
• Worth less to most thieves.
• Operable in Hostile Environments.
• Less network bandwidth.
• More efficient use of computing resources.
• Simple hardware upgrade path.
• Lower noise.
• Less wasted hardware.

After the discussion with the HP & Nexus, the company held a Q & A portion, which we as listeners will be the one to answer to their questions. They've giving away 3 2GB & 1 8GB flash drives, 2 t-shirts with a print of their company's logo and name. Unfortunately, I was not called.
But with or without their freebies, that said event was good. Before I forget, the Registration (visitors, students) was powered by CHASE TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION.

After attending the 2 succeeding orientations, we then together with my friends take a look at some parties who joined the said event. We also have in our mind to have freebies coming from them... hehehe.... but unfortunately we only avail the "sandbox" freebies in exchange of registering our mobile numbers at their sites. hehehe... but it was fun...

That was the COMDDAP 3days event.
