Red Macintosh Smashed Green Acers in Basketball Girls

Second day of Intramurals. The past days had been so rainy that's why students are praying for a good weather to come. I think their prayers had been answered cause it's been a sunny day at that time. Basketball for girls is not a common game in the country unlike in volleyball where boys and girls can play. Well, I think it's a good isea to have this kind of game, for a change. The first game was between the Juniors and the Freshmen. It's kinda awkward to see girls playing basketball but it's really fun watching. Girls turning into boys?... hehehe...
The players of the Red Macintosh are: Telmo, Vivo, dela Paz, Cuapiaco, Obillo, Resus, Permentilla, Riman, Miranda, Avilla and Bersamina. On the other hand, the players of the Green Acers are dela Paz, Diquit, Bencito, Cuarte, Tiongco and Dumaguing. Before the game, all of them are happily practicing.
The first point was got by the Juniors, as expected. It was followed and followed. You can see the cooperation of each team trying to get the ball to the other team and shoot it. With the hardworking and talented and intelligent team captain, the Red Macintosh did great in the game. It was a fun that the referree is always whistling because of the case "travelling". Each team cheered for their players and really gave their full sipport to the ones who are playing. The girls really did their best to win the game and in the end, The Red Macintosh won the game with the score of 34-8 in favor of Juniors. They are very happy and thankful to God.



Go go Juniors!

Red Macintosh Ruled Over the Cheerdance Competition

It was the first day of the Intramurals and all students are so excited. The intramurals consists of four teams: the first year or the freshmen are the Green Acers, Sophomores (second year) called themselves Yellow Asus, Juniors (third year) group was named Red Macintosh and the last which are the Seniors (fourth year) has the team named Blue Vaio.After some introductions given by the emcee, Mr. Ces, the teams finally presented theis prepared cheerdance. They had a random sampling first to know which tam will perform first. The first one who showed their skill was the freshmen (Green Acers). The youngest in the family of the CNSHS didn't want their team to loose that's why they did their best to show the older ones what they worth and what they can do. After the freshmen are the outrageous Juniors or the Red Macintosh. They did a lot of exhibitions and danced pretty good well. This was followed by the performance of he Seniors and they really did a great job on that cheerance. And the last one who performed are the Sophomores with a great performance.All teams did very good in their routines and I think for the judges all are winners. But sill they need to choose he best among the rest. So after the break the result of the competition was announced. Green Acers got the fourth place, while the third place goes to Yellow Asus. There was a pause in annnouncing the second and first pace but in a period of time Blue Vaio and the Champion in the Cheerdance Competition are the Juniors or Red Macintosh. This serve as an inspiration to them to really compete well with the other year levels.

MAC--INT--OSH
MACINTOSH!
Nice Start Macintosh!
Keep up the Good Work!

Red Macintosh Ruled the Sepak Takraw Girls Game

Third day of Intramurals and as the days passed, it was more interesting to watched the games. Day 3 is the championship day so it is the time to know who's the over-all champion. Well the games got hotter and hotter.

Sepak Takraw girls another games with unusual players. Girls? Mmmm... Yeah... They are girls with a capability to hit a ball using the different parts of the body. This was usually played by boys and different exhibitions are shown in this type of game which is popular in our country. After defeating the Blue Vaio in the first game, Red Macintosh fought the Yellow Asus which are twice to beat. Although the players experienced sprain, especially Alpha Colocado, it did not become a hindrance to defeat the Sophomores and it serves as a good luck charm to the team. And of course the cheers of their teammates made the players fight hard in the game and became victorious. It ended up with shaking of hands, which symbolizes sportsmanship and Red Macintosh as declared the Champion of the game.





Go Red Macintosh!

Reaction on the Magazine "The Making Of a Scientist"

Well, reading a magazine with no pictures is a really boring thing to do... But as I read the magazine given to us, I realized that I shouldn't be bored in reading such magazines... I think it's more useful if we read an article like that... As I read the magazine, I learned something about it... I also got an idea on how to be a "scientist" which is rarely needed nowadays... It serves as an inspiration to those science -inclined students to do more and really focused on it... I can say that it should be read by students who don't have interest in Science cause it will help a lot! So students, strive hard until we succeed!

Sample Abstract!

The hydrodynamics of dolphin drafting by Daniel Weihs, Faculty of Aerospace Engineering, Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa 32000, Israel. Abstract: Background Drafting in cetaceans is defined as the transfer of forces between individuals without actual physical contact between them. This behavior has long been surmised to explain how young dolphin calves keep up with their rapidly moving mothers. It has recently been observed that a significant number of calves become permanently separated from their mothers during chases by tuna vessels. A study of the hydrodynamics of drafting, initiated in the hope of understanding the mechanisms causing the separation of mothers and calves during fishing-related activities, is reported here. Results Quantitative results are shown for the forces and moments around a pair of unequally sized dolphin-like slender bodies. These include two major effects. First, the so-called Bernoulli suction, which stems from the fact that the local pressure drops in areas of high speed, results in an attractive force between mother and calf. Second is the displacement effect, in which the motion of the mother causes the water in front to move forwards and radially outwards, and water behind the body to move forwards to replace the animal's mass. Thus, the calf can gain a 'free ride' in the forward-moving areas. Utilizing these effects, the neonate can gain up to 90% of the thrust needed to move alongside the mother at speeds of up to 2.4 m/s. A comparison with observations of eastern spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) is presented, showing savings of up to 60% in the thrust that calves require if they are to keep up with their mothers. Conclusions A theoretical analysis, backed by observations of free-swimming dolphin schools, indicates that hydrodynamic interactions with mothers play an important role in enabling dolphin calves to keep up with rapidly moving adult school members.© 2004 Weihs; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.

Busy Days of Week 3!

It's our third week of going to school... Well, I think of it as a busy day. Research are getting harder as well as Advanced Statistics... this week, we need to think of our problems for our Research!

We need to have a calendar... As in we need to think of our problems everyday... Gosh! We don't have Microsoft Publisher... How's that? I don't know!

Our teacher is Mr. Mojica and as the days passed, he is always saying his dream: about one of us who will present and go to INTEL... I thought of it as impossible because having research is really very hard! I'm tired! I'm tired!

In Adv. Stat, we studied about datas... statistics-descriptive-inferential-dependent-independent... ets etc... We even had a quiz...

Bye! It's my account for the week for now! May we see each other soon... Bye bye! Love lots, Elaidia

Simple Experiment

1) Problem

Effect of Disturbing the Oxygen-Carbon Dioxide Cycle in the life span of two small fishes.

2) Objective

To determine the effect of disturbing the Oxygen-Carbon dioxide Cycle in the life span of two small fishes.

3) Materials

3 identical bottles with closures
2 small fish
1 bottle pond water
2 small plants

4) Procedure

First, equal amount of pond water was poured into each bottle. Then, one fish was added into a bottle. It was closed and labeled as Setup A. Same procedure was done but this time a small plant was added. It was labeled as Setup B. A small plant was added into the third bottle. It was closed and labeled as Setup C. The setups are placed in a sunny placed and was observed for at least five days. the observations are enterd in a table .
