Climate is an important factor that not only helps in regeneration of plant life and growth of crops but is also important to mankind. Humans can’t tolerate too much cold or too much heat.
South Africa is no different from the rest of the world and has witnessed severe climatic changes in the last 30 years. According to study by scientists, it is predicted that Africa will suffer the direct impact of extreme climatic changes. South Africa, which has a stable economy as compared to most of the African countries, will suddenly become the shelter for people from other parts of Africa. This will happen due to the rise in temperature, which will destroy the crops. There will be droughts and the animal populations will decline.
As of today, Africa is one of the few continents with a high rate of malnutrition deaths, which is 4 million annually. If the temperature rose by even then there will be more people dying of hunger. This rise in temperature will affect South Africa’s water supply, which will drop by 20%.
One of the governing factors of climate in South Africa is the westerly storm, which brings winter rainfall in the Cape region. Due to global warming, this storm will move further south and lose its water in the sea. This will impact the wheat production and also lead to drought. Agriculture will suffer the most as more and more water will used for drinking purposes.

2010 PHILIPPINES ELECTION
Malacañang asked Smartmatic to just do their best in ensuring the success of automated elections this May, and not make an excuse of the state of emergency in Maguindanao.
The Deputy Presidential Spokesperson Gary Olivar to the claim by Smartmatic/Total Information Management Corp., the consortium tasked to effect the P72-billion poll automation program of the Commission on Elections, that the state of emergency is “delaying its preparation for the automated elections.
We hope this is not being used as an excuse for under-performance. We encourage them to do their best and, if there are problems with peace and order, which the state of emergency is precisely trying to address, they must consult the proper authorities and ask for help.
On the alleged looting and firefight between armed civilian volunteer organizations (CVOs) and the Moro Islamic Liberation Front (MILF) in Maguindanao and as to what message the administration is getting from this violence.If there are specific activities that hinder the preparation for automated elections, this must be reported to the appropriate authorities.This should be no reason for doing our best to make automated elections a success everywhere in the country.

Technology for our Better Education
In the next few years, we will have a generation of under performers. This national tragedy looms with lack of funds to finance the education of our youth. This situation prevails though education, of all government departments, gets the lion’s share of the budget. Ironically, despite the budgetary priority, the Philippines has one of the lowest budget allocation among ASEAN countries. Insufficient money also prevents us from building more classrooms and hiring additional teachers. But since Filipinos put a premium on education, parents are oblivious of crowded classrooms. Some pupils are even willing to attend classes under the tree. It is really amazing that 96 percent of elementary school-aged children are in school. Filipinos have, indeed, always, considered education as the most valuable gift parents can give to their children, a legacy that transcends generation, a treasure that can never be stolen, and a testament which can never be ravaged by war or famine. Poverty is driving a big number of Filipinos out of school. One in every three Filipinos students drops out by sixth grade and more than half drop out before finishing high school. So, we cannot simply allow this big number of Filipinos to allow in ignorance or under education.

“Scenery”
When I woke up early in the morning as I set here at my window sill,
I notice the tress; they seem so still. The wind appears in my face so
When I woke up early in the morning as I set here at my window sill,
I notice the tress; they seem so still. The wind appears in my face so
I feel shivering and also I hear palter of the rain, as it noisily strides the pane.
Suddenly, I hear the thunder far away and the lighting lights the sky like day,
so I was scared at that moment. When I look up the sky the clouds are darkening way up high,
and they toss and roll in the turbulent sky. Then, after I sitting down in my window sill
I’ll back to my room
and I’ll did anything to make me happy, even if it is a very short time but I want to enjoy my day,
and I’ll did anything to make me happy, even if it is a very short time but I want to enjoy my day,
because I didn’t like feel bored;
and I really wondering when the storm will cease and sky will be at peace;
and I really wondering when the storm will cease and sky will be at peace;
for there’s nothing so beautiful after a shower as the sun slanting down on a lonely flower.
How lovely fascinating things on earth that makes me feel complete;
so thanks God to those things he shared to us.

Learning Blog
When I started in my tertiary I’ve learned a lot of things in my life, because in this level things are more higher than my high school days. Especially when I study here in MINDANAO STATE UNIVERSITY- ILIGAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY I was so lucky, because we all know that MSU-IIT is one of the most excellent school in the Philippines , I’m so proud enough being the iitian’s. As of now when I continued my study there’s a lot of hindrance and challenges in my life as a student, because I know that my course have a little difficulties, that’s why I set a goal to challenge myself to study hard so that I will not fail my subjects specially my major subject. Even though it have trials that I’ve encountered but I’ll try to get over it because I know that I can do it.
My aim in my life is to finish my degree in MSU-IIT, because I want to prove to them that I will finish my course taken by guiding ask guidance to God. Because some of my relatives judge me that I can’t finish my studies. That’s why I take this as a challenge of me, because I want to stand and prove to them that I can do it. And also I can do my best to have good grades in the end of the semester. I’ll always pray to God that he will guide me in every journey of my life, and have a successful life someday. Then, I will burn my midnight candle to achieve my goal and to become a better person. And also I want to have a stable job when I finish my study, because I want to help all the belongings of my parents specially their financial needs.
