Hi dear classmates and teacher, this is Fajardo again, this chance will be a little different, because, how the topic says, is a Goodbye, I’m not good saying bye-bye. This level was and continue being special, forasmuchas I knew special people, like Mr. Atilano Pimentel, he is an excellent teacher, that care our English training, telling to us what mistakes we have and the way to solve it, he gave us too the opportunity to share with his family, that is something that does not be in his class program, but that bring us closer to him.
I want to say, thanks to be an excellent teacher, you have been the best teacher I ever have, and so funny too, I laughed a lot with you, and learned a lot too, for me, the blog was excellent, ground breaking, I get used to it, it wasn’t a homework anymore, it was a place where I could get relax, read my classmates’ post, commented it, seeing their reactions later, and when I posted and information, I got anxious, waiting what they were to comment, thanks again teacher, you are a big guy, how I told to you, it was a pleasure.
To my classmates, thanks too, you were excellent with me, both the people I met there who already knew, such as; Karen, Yahaira, as well as others, that maybe we were previously together in classes, but no talked so much, now our relation grow, such as; Jenssi, Carlos, Esmirlis, Daniel who were marvelous people, not detract from the others with whom I share much, Frankelis, Monik, Reymi, Ivonne, Mr. Sacarias and among others, if I forget someone, excuse me, you were amazing, thanks for comment in my posts, specially “My New Nephew”, remember we probably will be together on the next level, to share so much.
Finally, that is not a bye bye, so I rename this post “see you”, I’ll see you later everybody
My topic is about homosexuality, my purpose was see how society perceive homosexuals, that is because I think, no matter we suppose are in open mind society, they are still discriminated, I tried to make an interview to some people that I know are homosexual, one of them told me “yes, I don’t mind” but she never appear, some others only said to me an emphatic “no”, maybe they was fearfulness. There are some question that I want to know, like ¿At what age did they discover their attraction to their same sex? Or if their parents know, ¿What motivate them to tell their parents and what was their reaction? Or if they are repented to be homosexuals, but now I see that I may not resolve them, for fear of what I could think of them.
Later I went directly to the society, I went around my neighborhood and I did the interview to some neighbors, it was a little funny when I asked suddenly to them, “¿Are you homosexual?” people are not used to make such a question, bellow their reactions:
I don’t have a different opinion about homosexuals, for me they are people like someone, people think that they are like monsters and, if one of them touch them it will contagious homosexuality, although they are stubborn when they are trying to flirt with you, I know because it has happened to me two or three times, even so I never eve spoke badly to them, I tell to them “I’m not homosexual but we could be friends” but they never accept.
I’ve known that there are preferences to heterosexual people when they need some jobs or services, depriving their rights only for think different, for that reason, we are seeing events like the homosexual hike some month ago.
Finally I want to say, throughout its history the society has suppressed and eliminated those who think differently, I think it is time to change.
P.S. this is the address of the video on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDIBJJY_VhE
Internet for me have been an excellent tool of develop, I have learned a lot of things, I never had taken a computer curse but, I know how to repair some hardware and software’s problems, I had a cyber café, associate with my sister, whenever a problem arouse with a computer, I had to resolve, what I did? I wrote the problem on Google and many possible solutions was shown to me, putting in practice that information I fixed it, and that was not only with computers, internet was my first tutor of draw, I have read about many many things on internet, babies, teenagers, parents, grandparents, healthiness, sickness, exercises, sports, and many others, it has been an excellent knowledge way to me, since I learn taking advantage at least of it, and I say “least” because I have not discovered yet the real potential of it, when I do, I will know what knowledge is.
Dengue is transmitted by the bite of an Aedesmosquito infected with any one of the four dengue viruses. It occurs in tropical and sub-tropical areas of the world. Symptoms appear 3—14 days after the infective bite. Dengue fever is a febrile illness that affects infants, young children and adults. Symptoms range from a mild fever, to incapacitating high fever, with severe headache, pain behind the eyes, muscle and joint pain, and rash. There are no specific antiviral medicines for dengue. It is important to maintain hydration. Use of acetylsalicylic acid (e.g. aspirin) and non steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (e.g. Ibuprofen) is not recommended. Dengue haemorrhagic fever (fever, abdominal pain, vomiting, bleeding) is a potentially lethal complication, affecting mainly children. Early clinical diagnosis and careful clinical management by experienced physicians and nurses increase survival of patients. |
Dengue is a mosquito-borne infection that in recent decades has become a major international public health concern. Dengue is found in tropical and sub-tropical regions around the world, predominantly in urban and semi-urban areas.
Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF), a potentially lethal complication, was first recognized in the 1950s during dengue epidemics in the Philippines and Thailand. Today DHF affects most Asian countries and has become a leading cause of hospitalization and death among children in the region.
There are four distinct, but closely related, viruses that cause dengue. Recovery from infection by one provides lifelong immunity against that virus but confers only partial and transient protection against subsequent infection by the other three viruses. There is good evidence that sequential infection increases the risk of developing DHF.
The incidence of dengue has grown dramatically around the world in recent decades. Some 2.5 billion people – two fifths of the world's population – are now at risk from dengue. WHO currently estimates there may be 50 million dengue infections worldwide every year.
In 2007 alone, there were more than 890 000 reported cases of dengue in the Americas, of which 26 000 cases were DHF.
The disease is now endemic in more than 100 countries in Africa, the Americas, the Eastern Mediterranean, South-east Asia and the Western Pacific. South-east Asia and the Western Pacific are the most seriously affected. Before 1970 only nine countries had experienced DHF epidemics, a number that had increased more than four-fold by 1995.
Not only is the number of cases increasing as the disease is spreading to new areas, but explosive outbreaks are occurring. In 2007, Venezuela reported over 80 000 cases, including more than 6 000 cases of DHF.
Some other statistics:
The spread of dengue is attributed to expanding geographic distribution of the four dengue viruses and their mosquito vectors, the most important of which is the predominantly urban species Aedes aegypti. A rapid rise in urban mosquito populations is bringing ever greater numbers of people into contact with this vector, especially in areas that are favourable for mosquito breeding, e.g. where household water storage is common and where solid waste disposal services are inadequate.
Dengue viruses are transmitted to humans through the bites of infective female Aedes mosquitoes. Mosquitoes generally acquire the virus while feeding on the blood of an infected person. After virus incubation for eight to 10 days, an infected mosquito is capable, during probing and blood feeding, of transmitting the virus for the rest of its life. Infected female mosquitoes may also transmit the virus to their offspring by transovarial (via the eggs) transmission, but the role of this in sustaining transmission of the virus to humans has not yet been defined.
Infected humans are the main carriers and multipliers of the virus, serving as a source of the virus for uninfected mosquitoes. The virus circulates in the blood of infected humans for two to seven days, at approximately the same time that they have a fever; Aedes mosquitoes may acquire the virus when they feed on an individual during this period. Some studies have shown that monkeys in some parts of the world play a similar role in transmission.
Dengue fever is a severe, flu-like illness that affects infants, young children and adults, but seldom causes death.
The clinical features of dengue fever vary according to the age of the patient. Infants and young children may have a fever with rash. Older children and adults may have either a mild fever or the classical incapacitating disease with abrupt onset and high fever, severe headache, pain behind the eyes, muscle and joint pains, and rash.
Dengue haemorrhagic fever (DHF) is a potentially deadly complication that is characterized by high fever, often with enlargement of the liver, and in severe cases circulatory failure. The illness often begins with a sudden rise in temperature accompanied by facial flush and other flu-like symptoms. The fever usually continues for two to seven days and can be as high as 41°C, possibly with convulsions and other complications.
In moderate DHF cases, all signs and symptoms abate after the fever subsides. In severe cases, the patient's condition may suddenly deteriorate after a few days of fever; the temperature drops, followed by signs of circulatory failure, and the patient may rapidly go into a critical state of shock and die within 12 to 24 hours, or quickly recover following appropriate medical treatment (see below).
There is no specific treatment for dengue fever.
For DHF, medical care by physicians and nurses experienced with the effects and progression of the complicating haemorrhagic fever can frequently save lives - decreasing mortality rates from more than 20% to less than 1%. Maintenance of the patient's circulating fluid volume is the central feature of DHF care.
There is no vaccine to protect against dengue. Although progress is underway, developing a vaccine against the disease - in either its mild or severe form - is challenging.
Despite these challenges, two vaccine candidates have advanced to evaluation in human subjects in countries with endemic disease, and several potential vaccines are in earlier stages of development. WHO provides technical advice and guidance to countries and private partners to support vaccine research and evaluation.
At present, the only method of controlling or preventing dengue virus transmission is to combat the vector mosquitoes.
In Asia and the Americas, Aedes aegypti breeds primarily in man-made containers like earthenware jars, metal drums and concrete cisterns used for domestic water storage, as well as discarded plastic food containers, used automobile tyres and other items that collect rainwater. In Africa the mosquito also breeds extensively in natural habitats such as tree holes, and leaves that gather to form "cups" and catch water.
In recent years, Aedes albopictus, a secondary dengue vector in Asia, has become established in the United States, several Latin American and Caribbean countries, parts of Europe and Africa. The rapid geographic spread of this species is largely attributed to the international trade in used tyres, a breeding habitat.
Vector control is implemented using environmental management and chemical methods. Proper solid waste disposal and improved water storage practices, including covering containers to prevent access by egg-laying female mosquitoes are among methods that are encouraged through community-based programmes.
The application of appropriate insecticides to larval habitats, particularly those that are useful in households, e.g. water storage vessels, prevents mosquito breeding for several weeks but must be re-applied periodically. Small, mosquito-eating fish and copepods (tiny crustaceans) have also been used with some success.
During outbreaks, emergency vector control measures can also include broad application of insecticides as space sprays using portable or truck-mounted machines or even aircraft. However, the mosquito-killing effect is transient, variable in its effectiveness because the aerosol droplets may not penetrate indoors to microhabitats where adult mosquitoes are sequestered, and the procedure is costly and operationally difficult. Regular monitoring of the vectors' susceptibility to widely used insecticides is necessary to ensure the appropriate choice of chemicals. Active monitoring and surveillance of the natural mosquito population should accompany control efforts to determine programme effectiveness. taken from internet
For many years our country has had a visit from citizens of our neighboring country haiti, they are rejected by the Dominicans for different reasons which I am going mention.
First reason, by racism, Dominicans learn to reject the black people and that makes that we grow up with this prejudice unconsciously.
A second reason could be the protection to our country of pacific invasion. Day after day we receive more Haitian immigrants which is causing an over population of this race, they learn our language easily, and we're not interested in learning theirs because we consider it inferior or insignificant, but the truth is that two Haitians can be talking in front of us in their language and even be talking about us without knowing that they speak.
Another reason, could be by our past, suffered invasions.
We can continue mention our feelings. Dominican people feel we carry the burden of haiti, obtaining as result an overpopulation mention above.
By crimes done by haitians in our country. One example was the death of Carlos of thirty four years old who was steal by pepin wason a haitian person. All residents of Dajabon were angry with all Haitians living in this place. The dominican living in dajabon burned all their houses. It is fair to mistreat others who have no fault?
Or could be because they take jobs away from Dominicans or because they perform jobs that Dominicans do not want to do, such as construction, selling fruit, etc.
Finally, I want to say that we can continue mention several reason, the truth is that Dominicans and Haitians for one reason or another have a social problems.
But as in all there are exceptions. This is the case of Liset who has sixteen years in our country.
This video that you going to see is in spanish about an interview realized a person of haitian nationality .
E-mail is an important communications service available on the Internet. The concept of sending electronic text messages between parties in a way analogous to mailing letters or memos predates the creation of the Internet. Today it can be important to distinguish between internet and internal e-mail systems. Internet e-mail may travel and be stored unencrypted on many other networks and machines out of both the sender's and the recipient's control. During this time it is quite possible for the content to be read and even tampered with by third parties, if anyone considers it important enough. Purely internal or intranet mail systems, where the information never leaves the corporate or organization's network, are much more secure, although in any organization there will be IT and other personnel whose job may involve monitoring, and occasionally accessing, the e-mail of other employees not addressed to them. Pictures, documents and other files can be sent as e-mail attachments. E-mails can be cc-ed to multiple e-mail addresses.

When I see things like the one that happened in Haiti 2 months ago, I start wondering whether there’s a god or not. I don’t understand why people when they are more aware that God is not doing anything to stop catastrophes, they still believe that that’s the way He acts. The question is: why does God permit that horrendous manifestation of nature to take place in a country where “nothing” is the perfect adjective to describe such land and let more than 300,000 people to die? No one can answer that. What about the 8.8
Because He is the Lord, the Creator, the Father and the Holy Spirit, we have to understand His actions, go all blind straight and not to see that He is not accomplishing His job; which is “peace”. But this silliness does not end there. We’ve been witness of the rarity that “nature” has been pointed out; nevertheless there are people that blame Satan for those atrocities, and for criminal acts, diseases, hunger...
I'm sick of this.
It’s simple: either He does not exit or He’s tremendously stupid.
