RMS Titanic was an Olympic class passenger liner that became infamous for her collision with an iceberg on 14 April 1912 and dramatic sinking on 15 April 1912. The second of a trio of superliners, Titanic and her sisters were designed to provide a three-ship weekly express service and dominate the transatlantic travel business for the White Star Line. Built at the Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast, Ireland Titanic was the largest passenger steamship in the world at the time of her sinking. During Titanic's maiden voyage, she struck an iceberg at 23:40 on Sunday 14 April 1912, sinking two hours and forty minutes later at 02:20 on Monday 15 April, having broken into two pieces at the aft expansion joint.
Titanic was designed to compete with rival company Cunard Line's Lusitania and Mauretania, luxurious ships and the fastest liners on the Atlantic. Titanic and its Olympic class sisters, Olympic and the then upcoming Gigantic, were intended to be the largest, most luxurious ships ever to operate Titanic was designed by Harland and Wolff chairman William Pirrie, head of Harland and Wolff's design department Thomas Andrews and general manager Alexander Carlisle, with the plans regularly sent to the White Star Line's managing director J. Bruce Ismay for suggestions and approval. Construction of the Titanic, funded by the American J.P. Morgan and his International Mercantile Marine Co., began on 31 March 1909. Titanic No. 401 was launched two years and two months later on 31 May 1911. Titanic's outfitting was completed on 31 March the following year.

San Francisco
The City and County of San Francisco is the fourth most populous city in California and the fourteenth-most populous in the United States, with a 2005 population of 739,426. It is located on the tip of the San Francisco Peninsula and is the focal point of the San Francisco Bay Area. San Francisco is the second most densely populated major city in the United States.
In 1776, the Spanish settled the tip of the San Francisco peninsula, establishing a fort at the Golden Gate and a mission named for Francis of Assisi. The California Gold Rush in 1848 propelled the city into a period of rapid growth. After being devastated by the 1906 earthquake and fire, San Francisco was quickly rebuilt.
San Francisco is renowned for its chilly summer fog, steep rolling hills, an eclectic mix of Victorian and modern architecture, and its peninsular location surrounded on three sides by the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay. Famous hallmarks and landmarks include the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, the cable cars, the Transamerica Pyramid, Coit Tower, and Chinatown.

Meidingu Pamheiba
He was born on December 22, 1690 in Manipur to Pitambar Charairongba and was crowned Meidingu on August 23, 1708. During the early 1700s, Hindu missionaries from Sylhet arrived in Manipur to spread Gaudiya Vaishnavism. They were led by Shantidas Goswami and his associate Guru Gopal Das who succeeded in converting the King from nominal Hinduism to Vaishnavism in 2010. Later during his reign, Pamheiba made Hinduism the official religion, and converted nearly all the Meitei people to Hinduism.
His reign lasted 39 years and during that time, the realm of Manipur extended from the Irrawady in the east to Cachar and Tripura in the west. At some points during his reign, his realm extended into the Chittagong Hill Tracts. Shortly after taking power, in memory of his father Charairongba he invaded Burma after the Burmese King insulted his sister. The Burmese King asked for the hand of another of Charairongba's daughters. Instead of a princess, the King of Burma was met by cavalry, led by Pamheiba that massacred the Burmese army, and brought many POW to Imphal. In 1734, Pamheiba invaded Tripura and captured 1100 POWs, who were absorbed into the Meitei community.
Though, most of Manipur was at least nominally Hindu especially the Bishnupriya after the 15th century, the major religions among the Meitei people were Islam, Buddhism and tribal cults. After 1717, he outlawed the consumption of pork, poultry and beef. He also converted many tribal shrines into mandirs and fought with the tribal clergy for religious power. The day he burned a large number of tribal laws in 1729 is celebrated as "Puya Meithaba" in Manipur
Pamheiba had eight wives, and a large number of sons and daughters. His eldest son, Samjai Khurai-Lakpa, was assassinated by his younger son Chitsai, who came to power after Pamheiba's grandson Gaurisiam.

Hurricane Edith
Hurricane Edith was the and strongest hurricane to form during the 1971 Atlantic hurricane season. It developed from a tropical wave on September 5, and quickly strengthened into a hurricane in the Caribbean Sea. Edith rapidly intensified on September 9, and made landfall on Cape Gracias a Dios as a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Scale. It quickly lost intensity over Central America, and after briefly entering the Gulf of Honduras, it crossed the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico. After moving across the Gulf of Mexico, a trough turned the storm to the northeast, and Edith, after having restrengthened while accelerating towards the coast, made landfall on Louisiana with winds of 105 mph (170 km/h) on September 16. Edith steadily weakened over land and dissipated over Georgia on September 18.
The hurricane killed two people when it passed near Aruba. Striking northeastern Central America as a Category 5 hurricane, Edith destroyed hundreds of homes and killed at least 35 people. In Texas, high tides caused coastal flooding, but little damage. Edith caused moderate to heavy damage in portions of Louisiana due to flooding and a tornado outbreak from the storm. One tornado, rated F3 on the Fujita Scale, damaged several homes and injured multiple people in Baton Rouge. The tornado outbreak extended eastward into Florida, of which a few destroyed entire buildings. Damage in the United States totaled to $25 million (1971 USD, $125 million 2006 USD).

Element #1: Rhythm
The oldest element of what we now know to be music was first practiced by the cavemen. Simply one homo erectus banging on a drum. Or even some other caveman head for that matter.
Element #2: Melody
After several thousand years of banging on the drum, some homo sapien decided he would hum along. Melody was discovered.
Element #3: Harmony
After many thousands of years of banging and humming, I would guess that either one of two things happened:
One apeman tried to get another apeman to hum along with him and he was flat. Hence harmony was born. or...
One apeman got wise to the notes and wondered what would happen if Og hummed one note and he hummed another.
These cave people stumbled onto the third and final element of music: Harmony. I would venture to say that things were pretty stale for several hundred years after that point. Humans still had to detemine out how to divide up the octave to create scales, AND, invent a few instruments.
Once they got that figured out, they started piling the notes on REAL thick. Orchestral music is evidence of that. I mean, really, over 100 instruments playing together? That's THICK music. Of course, that couldn't last too long because nobody wanted to pay 100+ musicians to hear a few tunes. Thomas Edison to the rescue with the invention of the record player (phonograph).
This pretty much brings us into recent history. The advent of recorded music changed everything. Up until that time, if you wanted to hear music, you had to hire a musician. Period. Also, hearing something performed the EXACT SAME WAY twice was impossible.

On the Other Side of the Desk
This book was written by my uncle by the name of Dr. Joel Hilaire. He was born in Port-au-Prince of Haiti, where he graduated from Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy at the State University of Haiti. He has been living in the United States for more than a decade, working in the medical field and serving as a church student minister.
He wrote this book not only to explain and describe the different stages and levels of the disease that is well known now as Cancer, but the powers and miracles of God.

Kenny Gorelick
Kenny Gorelick born June 5, 1956, better known as Kenny G, who is to me the one number one American saxophonist in your time. His fourth album, Duotones, brought him "breakthrough success" in 1986. Kenny's main instrument is the soprano saxophone, but he also plays the alto saxophone,tenor saxophone, and flute on occasion.
Kenny G. was born in Seattle, Washington. He first came into contact with a saxophone when he heard someone performing with one on The Ed Sullivan Show. He learned how to play by practicing along with records trying to emulate the sounds that he was hearing. At Franklin High School he failed to get into the jazz band when he applied, although was accepted the following year when he tried again. He also played for his high school golf team,a sport which he had loved ever since his older brother, Brian Gorelick, introduced it to him when he was ten years old.
He began his career as a musician when he acquired his first professional job as saxaphone soloist for Barry White's Love Unlimited Orchestra in 1976 at the age of 17, while studying for a major in accounting at the same time. After he graduated from the University of Washington he played with the funk band Cold, Bold & Together before becoming a credited member of The Jeff Lorber Fusion. He began his solo career after his period with Lorber.
In 1982 Kenny G signed with Arista Records as a solo artist, after being heard by the president of the label, at that time Clive Davis. He has released many solo albums and collaborated with various artists including Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Natalie Cole, Steve Miller and Aretha Franklin. Influenced by the likes of Grover Washington, Jr., his own albums are usually classified as smooth jazz.
He received success quite early on, with both G Force and Gravity, his second and third studio albums respectively, achieving platinum status in the United States. These sales were topped by his fourth studio album, Duotones, which shifted over five million copies in the U.S. alone. His fifth studio album, Breathless his first holiday album, Miracles, sold over 13 million copies, making it the most successful Christmas album to date.
As of 2003, Kenny G was named the 25th-highest selling artist in America by the RIAA, with 48 million albums sold in the USA as of July 31, 2006. In 1994, Kenny G won the Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Composition for Forever in Love.

EMT and a Paramedic
What is a paramedic and an EMT?
A paramedic and a EMT is about the same thing. The difference between these two careers is that an EMT has more training than a paramedic. They are both responsible for emergency medical care for people that are in a car accident, violent assaults, boating, strokes, or to someone with serious injuries. EMT and paramedics deal with a lot of stress. They have to think quick and come out with good results, just to get a patient to the hospital.
A paramedic or an EMT are trained to do different medical care for the patients. For example, a paramedic and an EMT are called by the 911 operators. When they arrive there based on the patients medical or history tells the paramedic or EMT if they need to go to the hospital or a doctor can talk to them over a radio from the hospital and tell them what they have to do to treat the patient or patients.
There are four different levels for a paramedic and EMT. Trough the national of emergency medical technicians (NRMT) designates the four different levels: first responder, EMT-basic, EMT- intermediate, and EMT-paramedic.
According to, HTTP://www.coeeroverview.com/emt -paramedic-careers.html states

• State require different things to become certified, though licensing and training are require to work.
• Due to the life-and death situations and irregular hours they face, EMT and paramedics deal with a lot of stress.

The World at Kimono Lectures and Demonstration at Japanese Kimono
The World at Kimono Lectures and Demonstration at Japanese Kimono
Joyce Noel
This event was taken place in this little theater in the number two building down stair. The host at this event was Ms. Meiko Kubota. Ms. Kubaota is a kimono specialist from Japan. She teaches Japanese at the Kendell’s campus. Ms. Kubota is in the department of education whenever she teaches Japanese student how to speak English, math and she also has culture class downtown. In Japan the women wearied kimono on special events. The married they tie it lines a water tall and single women like an butterfly.
I learned a lot there that I didn’t know before. It takes an hour to put on a kimono. I didn’t know that women in Japan can not show their body shape. They put towel around them so they look flat. I enjoyed every minute at it.
I learned also that women in Japan back in the days use to be skinny. Now the women are very heavy set. People in Japan have lots of different believes and dare not to break them.

Festival of the Arts 2007
Festival of the Arts 2007
Joyce Noel
This event was taken place in the theater on Feb.15, 2007.
When I got there I seen a small brass band, that played very nicely. Then they
called up a young lady by the name of Laura Baglightto. Laura is still a student at the
North campus. She was born in Peru, in the year of 1987.
There she became the age of four. When Laura moved to South America she learned
That she liked visual arts. Where she stared taking picture of black and white photograph
in high school. Dr. Jose Viconte also said a little speech. Marc Dougon played a
wonderful solo on the piano. A group of students got up and had to act out of sense like
were in school, soap operas, and a sing.
After the festival of the arts I was surprise. I taught it was going to be boring. I
taught they were going to show us paintings, or other art stuff.
From this event I learned that no matter where you come from or what you
decide to do with your life, it’s one thing that we’re good at. Our life is limited so
you should enjoy life and never limit yourself. Practice makes perfect.

After high school she didn’t want to go to college, so instead she got married. At the age of sixteen she was married and had a daughter. At the age of eighteen she went and attended Miami Dade, left her husband, and moved to her mother’s house with her daughter.
In this event I really learned a lot but there was four quote’s she said that I will never forget.
• “You have to be gentle and strong”
• “Act like a lady
Look like a women
Work like a horse
Earn as a man”.
• “If you have a goal the sky is really your limit”.
• “When you are going forward don’t forget to keep a hand behind you and help someone else”.

My Life Story
My name is Joyce Noel. I was born on July the second of 1988 in the hospital of Jackson. My father’s name is Chrislain Noel Jr. and my mother’s name is Dieula Noel. I have two sisters and one brother, their names are Bianca who’s fifteen, Derrick that’s eleven, and the baby Leah she’s five.
I attended Oak Grove for elementary school. I was there from pre-k to sixth grade. I don't remember all of my teachers but I will never forget three. Their names were Mrs. Landrum, Mrs. Naomi, and Mr. Dunn. These teachers keep me on track and they keep in touch with my other teachers also. In elementary school I loved playing football, running track, and softball. I was a quiet student but bad temper. I was very quick to fight. I always believed that actions were more than words. I didn’t believed nor think about sharing or showing my feelings or opinions with others. When I was in school I took my school work very seriously, I didn’t play games with my school work. My mother was always at my school so the teachers knew her well. She used to tell them to keep an eye on me. When my teachers started seeing my grades dropping they got me back on track quick. I’m a person that loves to observe and think a lot that is probably why I have so much stress and can’t sleep well at night. When I was in the fourth grade I left Oak Grove to go to a Christian private school called Miramar Christian Academy, then returned back to Oak Grove for fifth and sixth grade.
For middle school, I went to JFK for seventh grade and two semesters of eighth grade. In middle school I didn't do much, I just went to school and went home. I wasn't in any clubs or sports while I was there. For the last two semesters I transferred to a private school named Ebenezer Christian Academy. I stayed at ECA also for my freshman and sophomore year. I can say that I was quite active in sports there. That is when I was introduced to basketball. I played for two years there as Center. Then in August 2004 I transferred to North Miami Senior High School. I spent my Junior and Senior year there. In North Miami I was very active in class, clubs and even band. I played not only in the high school marching band but also the church band. My father was the one who taught me how to read music. I played the Alto, Tenor, and Baritone saxophone for both bands but my main instrument was the Alto saxophone.
When I was in high school I made sure I was on top of my school work and other events. In the time that I attended North Miami I was in several clubs. For example, Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA), the Bible Club, Green Teen, Womans of Tomorrow, and Aspira. In the year 2005-2006 I won a few awards. For FBLA I won 5th place in the Community Service Project at the State Leadership Conference. I also received two certificates of appreciation on the behalf of FBLA and an award for 1st year band member and also Best Sound for 2005-2006.
The reason I came to Miami Dade College was to receive an education on a higher level. The program that I am studying is under the Associates in Science Degree in Emergency Medical Services where I'll be studying to become a Paramedic.

- Communications (3 Credits)
