Hey all, please try to be free on next Friday (27th March)!
We're going back to Zhss to collect our Olevel certs, and the more the merrier, so come!
Going straight after school, which should be in the late afternoon/evening for those who haven't started school. Not only to collect the certs but also to see one another after a long time! So if you've collected yours also can come la. Perhaps dinner after that.
(Stop asking who's going and who's not, because if everyone thinks no one is going then no one will want to go. So everyone shall go!)

Tsetse fly (pronounced /ts/e-/ts/e, teet-SEE, or set-see)
(NOT SEE-SEE)

Tsetse are large biting flies from Africa which live by feeding on the blood of vertebrate animals. Tsetse include all the species in the Glossina, which are generally placed in their own family, Glossinidae.

Tsetse have been extensively studied because they are biological vectors of the African Trypanosomiases, deadly diseases which include sleeping sickness in people and nagana in cattle.

Tsetse are crudely similar to other large flies, such as the housefly, but can be distinguished by four characteristics of their anatomy, two of which are easy to observe. Tsetse fold their wings completely when they are resting so that one wing rests directly on top of the other over their abdomen. Tsetse also have a long proboscis which extends directly forward and is attached by a distinct bulb to the bottom of their head.

Earth Hour 2008

2008-01-06T18:30:00.000+08:00

Created to take a stand against the greatest threat our planet has ever faced, Earth Hour uses the simple action of turning off the lights for one hour to deliver a powerful message about the need for action on global warming.
This simple act has captured the hearts and minds of people all over the world. As a result, at 8pm on the 29 March, 2008 millions of people in some of the world’s major capital cities, including Copenhagen, Toronto, Chicago, Melbourne, Brisbane, Tel Aviv and Manila will unite and switch off for Earth Hour.

ABOUT
It started with a question: How can we inspire people to take action on climate change?
The answer: Ask the people of Sydney to turn off their lights for one hour.

On 31 March 2007, 2.2 million people and 2100 Sydney businesses turned off their lights for one hour – Earth Hour. This massive collective effort reduced Sydney’s energy consumption by 10.2% for one hour, which is the equivalent effect of taking 48,000 cars off the road for one hour.

With Sydney icons like the Harbour Bridge and Opera House turning their lights off, and unique events such as weddings by candlelight, the world took notice. Inspired by the collective effort of millions of Sydneysiders, many major global cities are joining Earth Hour in 2008, turning a symbolic event into a global movement.

Summarised Chap 4 main points
by JELLY.

SUMMARY ONLY

CHAPTER FOUR

SRI LANKA

CAUSES

Citizenship rights (Ceylon Citizenship Act)
- The CCA granted citizenship to those who were born or ancestors were born in Sri Lanka.
- Many Tamils became stateless even when India tried to help.
LINK: Tamils still contributed to society but they din have citizenship, so they were ANGRY!

University Admission
-Tamils had to score higher compared to the Sinhalese to enter uni.
-There was also a fixed Sinhalese placing in the unis.
-More Sinhalese were able to get into medical/engineering courses thus getting better jobs.
-The system was not based on merit.
LINK: Tamils felt it was unfair as Sinhalese had better chances of getting good jobs, so they also very ANGRY

Resettlement Policy
-The goverment resettled Sinhalese into Tamil areas to increase the Sinhalese %.
-Tamils had to fight for jobs, land and had to adjust to different cultures.
LINK: Tamils felt that the Sinhalese were intruding into their areas and thus got ANGRY!

Language Policy (Sinhala=Offical language)
-The Tamils could not get govt jobs easily as they did not know Sinhala.
-Civil servants would be dismissed if they din learn Sinhala in 3 years.
LINK:The Tamils felt that this was unfair as they should not be forced to learn a new language just to get a job so they very ANGRY again.

Consequences

Political

Armed conflict
-LTTE formed as peaceful demands din work.
-A lot ppl hurt.
Foregin Intervention
-India wanted to help the Tamils. (theres abit more on this actually)

Economic (This is simple)

Tourism fell
Investors din want to invest
Unemployment
-Tamil businesses were destroyed in conflict, but the Sinhalese were also affected as they held jobs at these places. (Thus all were affected)

Social

Large scale-displacement
-The tamils scared of the confict and thus ran to India.

NORTHERN IRELAND

Causes

Divided Loyalities
-Protestants want Britian, Catholics want Ireland
LINK: They didn't want to compromise and thus ANGRY

Education
-Protestant and Catholic students brought up in their own ways
LINK: Didn't interact,grew up hostile against each other, thus had conflict.

Employment
-Protestant easily employed than Catholics.
LINK: Catholics felt unfair, ANGRY

Housing
-Priority to Protestants first.
LINK: Catholics had to wait longer, frustrated then ANGRY.

Voting(household=2 votes)(bigger companies=more votes)
-Protestant got alot companies so got more votes.
LINK: Catholics scared protestants will come into power so ANGRY (the thing was unfair too)

Consequences

Social

-Innocents died.
-People prejudiced agaisnt each other because of their education. (lead to more violence)

Political

-Catholics had civil right marches and pressure from Brit govt led to the voting system being ABOLISHED

Economic(see same again)

-Tourism down
-Investors dont want come

BACKGROUND:
Catholics had civil rights march.
Brit army (was mainly Protestants)welcomed by them but when they came to fight the march, Cats din trust them liao.
Protestants also petrol-bomb Cat houses coz of march.
So Cats very angry right? Then made IRA, which was their own illegal army, to drive out the British army.

Please remember to ANSWER THE QUESTION AT THE END OF EVERY PARAGRAPH. For e.g
Q) Divided loyalties was the most crucial factor that led to conflict. Do you agree?
Prgh1A).........................thus divided loyalties was very imporant as it caused this and that and this and that and thus leading to conflict.
Prgh2A).....................thus education was important as it caused the students to feel this and that and this and that and thus they were hostile which led to conflict btw them.

THANAtophobia

Thanatophobia - the fear of death or dying is a phobia that is rarely talked about. Most people think they are alone in their suffering and don't usually share their fears about the Grim Reaper. In reality, Death Anxiety affects most people at some time or another in their lives, but the degree of anxiety would largely depend on the individual. Some of us live in complete denial, preferring to think that we have an endless supply of tomorrows, while others are consumed with daily thoughts about their own mortality. None of us know for sure what will happen to us after we die, but when the fear of dying consumes your thoughts to the point that it interferes with your everyday life you may be suffering with Thanatophobia. The realization of one's own mortality is a natural concern for most humans but obsessive fear and anxiety can take the joy out of living and even lead to full-blown panic attacks.

So what is it about this universal phenomenon that fills us with such dread? Most people would agree the most obvious answer is the "fear of the unknown." Since we have never actually experienced death, how can we be sure what will be waiting for us on the other side? What if our concept of the afterlife is completely false and there is absolutely nothing - the ultimate disappointment? The loss of Self and ceasing to exist can be a terrifying prospect. If this is all there is to our existence, then our fear would seem to be justified. For some the "fear of dying alone" causes extreme anxiety. Ultimately you must pass through death alone but the passing may be made easier when surrounded by loved ones and familiar faces. Others fear leaving their loved ones behind to cope without them. They worry about how they will manage emotionally and financially as well as living out their lives without them. Whatever the reasons, death is unavoidable and comes to us all. Whether you are obsessed with the issue or choose to completely ignore it, a balance must be sought if we are to live our lives fully and completely.

So how do we deal with dying?Some of us find comfort in religion and a strong belief in the afterlife. Others turn to science and the study of Near Death Experience desperately looking for some proof that we really do possess a soul that lives beyond the finality of death. Everyone, in their own way seeks an answer that will calm and soothe their fears. Studies show that deeply religious people fear death the least while the more skeptical were haunted by their death fears. However, atheists don't worry at all - for obvious reasons. It has also been noted that the fear of dying also seems to lessen as we age.It is our instinctive nature to resist and avoid death. Our bodies are geared toward survival. To help us deal with our mortality maybe we should take a closer look at our fear of dying. Identifying our fears is the first step to facing them. Are we afraid to suffer? Are we afraid of the unknown? It is only by facing our fears that we are able to overcome them.

Some taboo stuff:

Since I could go into the e-learning portal at 3+pm, I downloaded some of the worksheets from there but someone must have found out this loophole and denied access to it after that. But here are some worksheets from the teachers' sharepoint that you can download now (not like many of you will do now anyway) .

History/SS

Download

Propaganda worksheet
Download

Signs worksheet

Chemistry

You need to read the instructions for chem which is not there.
