100 and 5 Stars. Now, I finish the present post, and
thanks for reading these, thirty-three [33] quotes. Additionally, you have
three very interesting themes. They are: 1) « Maestría – El caso de una
determinada película, y un determinado libro», 2) «Personal Finances - [Church
of the Mormons]», and 3) « English as Medium of Instruction (EMI) - Oxford
University». Our contents are written in the English language, with exception
of our theme number one, which is written in the Spanish language.
I always recommend people read nutrition labels so
they know, for instance, how much fiber they're getting.
Claudia Black
Head Start has been a key component of health,
nutrition and early learning opportunities since the 1960s.
Travis Lane Stork
I have a thorough [detailed, careful] understanding of
nutrition, and I feed my body only foods that support health.
Warren Cuccurullo
True beauty comes from the inside out [back-to-front].
It emerges from proper thinking, as well as proper nutrition and exercise.
David Bowie
Feed the mind good wisdom, the body good nutrition,
the soul good vibes [feelings, atmospheres], … Elevation for your situation.
Ellie Krieger
Exercise and good nutrition helped make me what I am
today and are critical in allowing me stay on top of my game.
John Robbins
The bottom line [result, end product] is that there is
a lot more that could and should be done to help people with nutrition and
exercise.
Chris Paul
I submit [present] that scientists have not yet
explored the hidden possibilities of the innumerable seeds, leaves and fruits
for giving the fullest possible nutrition to mankind.
Jared Polis
Training is bad for you! Training followed by rest and
proper nutrition is good for you and will make you better prepared for the
event you are training for.
Robert Farrar Capon
Developing a diet that is healthful [healthy, good for
your health], balanced, and appropriate for your particular caloric needs is
easy enough and is absolutely critical to establishing a healthful lifestyle
that incorporates proper nutrition, adequate fitness, and mental resilience.

Película:
«Poderes Ocultos» - Dos investigadores
de fraudes paranormales, la veterana doctora Margaret Matheson (Sigourney
Weaver) y su joven ayudante Tom Buckley (Cillian Murphy), estudian los más
diversos fenómenos metapsíquicos con la intención de demostrar su origen
fraudulento. Simón Silver (Robert De Niro), legendario psíquico, tal vez el
dotado más célebre de todos los tiempos, reaparece después de treinta años de
enigmática ausencia para convertirse en el mayor desafío mundial para la
ciencia ortodoxa y los escépticos profesionales.

«¿Será posible que un estado de ánimo triste o
negativo pueda debilitar nuestro organismo hasta el punto de abrir la puerta a
numerosas enfermedades?,
¿Es verdad que muchas curaciones catalogadas como
inexplicables, e incluso como milagrosas, pueden haber sido causadas por una
poderosa sugestión?
¿Qué hay de
cierto en esos resultados aparentemente mágicos que consiguen ciertos estados
alterados de conciencia como la hipnosis o la meditación?.
A todas estas preguntas responde este libro de
Abelardo Hernández que nos enseña algunas de las increíbles y aún desconocidas
capacidades de nuestra mente».

Personal Finances - [Church of the Mormons]
__ __ __
Dear Brothers and Sisters:
The Lord has declared, “It is my purpose to provide
for my saints” (D&C 104:15). This revelation is a promise from the Lord
that He will provide temporal blessings [sanctifications, approbations] and
open the door of self-reliance [self-confidence], which is the ability for us
to provide the necessities of life for ourselves and our family members.
This workbook has been prepared to help members of the
Church learn and put into [towards] practice principles of faith, education,
hard work, and trust in the Lord. Accepting and living these principles will
better enable you to receive the temporal blessings promised by the Lord. We
invite you to diligently study and apply these principles and teach them to
your family members. As you do so, your life will be blessed [approved,
sanctified].
You will learn how to act on your path toward greater
self-reliance. You will be blessed with greater hope, peace, and progress.
Please be assured that you are a child of our Father
in Heaven. He loves you and will never forsake [abandon] you. He knows you and
is ready to extend to you the spiritual and temporal blessings of
self-reliance.
Sincerely,
The First Presidency - The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints Salt Lake City, Utah

I am come [move towards] that they might have life,
and that they might have it more abundantly. John 10:10
__ __ __
Whatever causes us to be dependent on someone else for
decisions or resources we could provide for ourselves weakens us spiritually
and retards our growth toward what the gospel plan intends us to be.
__ __ __
Without self-reliance one cannot exercise these innate
desires to serve. How can we give if there is nothing there? Food for the
hungry cannot come from empty [unoccupied] shelves [steps]. Money to assist the
needy cannot come from an empty purse [reward, prize]. Support and
understanding cannot come from the emotionally starved [have nothing to eat].
Teaching cannot come from the unlearned. And most important of all, spiritual
guidance cannot come from the spiritually weak. Marion G. Romney.
__ __ __
I urge you . . . to look to the condition of your
finances. I urge you to be modest in your expenditures [expenses, payments];
discipline yourselves in your purchases to avoid debt to the extent [degree]
possible. Pay off [Liquidate] debt as quickly as you can, and free yourselves
from bondage [slavery, oppression]. This is a part of the temporal gospel in
which we believe. May the Lord bless you to set your houses in order. If you
have paid your debts, if you have a reserve, even though it be small…, you will
have shelter [protection] for your [families] and peace in your hearts.
__ __ __
Discuss:
1) What experiences did you have practicing or sharing
the My Foundation [Organization] principle?.
2) What patterns or habits have you discovered while
tracking [following] your expenses?.
3) What did you learn from your family council [meeting,
assembly]?.
4) What did you learn from the financial assessment
[evaluation]?.
__ __ __
There is a law . . . upon [on] which all blessings are
predicated—and when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that
law upon which it is predicated [established, centered].
__ __ __
The Lord blesses those who want to improve, who accept
the need for commandments and try to keep them. He will help you repent
[disappointment], repair, fix [resolve] whatever [of any kind] you have to fix,
and keep going. Soon enough you will have the success you seek [search for].

English as Medium of Instruction (EMI) - Oxford University
__ __ __
«Of course, all the contents of our magazines of
‘Leadership of 100 and 5 Stars’ work with issues of any intelligence, or any
form of virtue. Now, I highlight [emphasize] in the present theme, EMI -
English as Medium of Instruction, because of a great power of intersecting with
the mission of our magazines. Yes, our magazines: ‘The Leadership, and the
English Language - The English Language, and the Leadership’».
M.C.

__ __ __
The author, Julie Dearden.
Julie Dearden is the Senior Research and Development
Fellow [Partner, Coworker] in English as Medium of Instruction (EMI) at Oxford
University Department of Education (OUDE) and has a particular interest in the
global shift [change] from English being taught as a ‘foreign’ language to
English being used as a medium of instruction for other academic subjects. -
[And both, ok]-. She is a member of the OUDE Applied Linguistics research group
which aims to increase understanding of the acquisition and use of language
from both a theoretical and a practical perspective. Julie manages a new
research Center which was established in March 2014: EMI Oxford. This Center
conducts research into English as Medium of Instruction and develops and
teaches professional development programs for teachers and lecturers [speakers,
trainers, readers].
This report presents the findings of a study which
attempted to provide an initial picture of the rapidly growing global
phenomenon of English medium instruction (EMI). Our working definition of EMI was:
«The use of the English language to teach academic subjects in countries or
jurisdictions where the first language (L1) of the majority of the population
is not English».
The study was conducted by EMI Oxford (The Centre for
Research and Development in English Medium Instruction), a Centre based in the
University of Oxford’s Department of Education. The research group included
Professor Ernesto Macaro, Dr Catherine Walter, Julie Dearden and Ting Zhao. The
study was enabled thanks to the support of the British Council. …
. __ __ __
In many countries the educational infrastructure does
not support quality EMI provision: there is a shortage [lack, deficiency] of
linguistically qualified teachers; there are no stated [specified, indicated]
expectations of English language proficiency [expertise, know-how]; there
appear to be few organizational or pedagogical guidelines [guiding principle]
which might lead to effective EMI teaching and learning; there is little or no
EMI content in initial teacher education (teacher preparation) programs and
continuing professional development (in-service) courses.
__ __ __
EMI – Eight Questions
1. Who or what is driving EMI implementation and
expansion?.
2. What are the different forms of EMI currently [now, at
this time] being developed?.
3. What kind of English is being used in EMI and does
this matter [count, signify]?.
4. What levels of English proficiency [expertise,
know-how] enable EMI teachers/professors to provide quality instruction in
their respective academic subjects?.
5. What are the psycholinguistic representations in the
mental lexicon [dictionary, vocabulary] of abstract concepts encountered in
academic subjects through EMI?.
6. What strategies are used by students in EMI classrooms
in oral and written comprehension tasks which are designed to facilitate their
understanding of their academic subjects?
7. What are the psycholinguistic and sociolinguistic
effects on students’ home language resulting from EMI used in various phases of
education?.
8. …
__ __ __
EMI is increasingly [progressively, more and more]
being used in universities, secondary schools and even primary schools. This
phenomenon has very important implications for the education of young people.
Yet little empirical [pragmatic] research has been conducted into [towards] why
and when EMI is being introduced and how it is delivered. We do not know enough
with regard to [with reference to] the consequences of using English rather
than the first language (L1) on teaching, learning, assessing [evaluating], and
teacher professional development.
__ __ __
Bring to mind: «L1, where the first language of the
majority of the population is not English».
__ __ __
The study described in this report was a first phase
in tackling [undertaking, facing] that research agenda in that its intention
was to investigate in very broad [extensive, expansive] terms what the current
situation is globally. This initial phase, carried out [performed] with the
support of the British Council, set about mapping (a) «the size and shape of
EMI in the world today». What is reported here therefore [consequently] is a
‘bird’s eye view’ of 55 countries where (b) «EMI is established or is in the
process of being established».
[DATE] - The study was conducted from October 2013 to
March 2014 and investigated the current situation of EMI in terms of country
particularities, subjects being taught through EMI and important variables
according to educational phases.
__ __ __
EMI Oxford carried out [performed] 25 semi-structured
15–20 minute interviews with university teachers who were participating in
three separate one-week professional development courses organized by the
British Council. «The teachers came from different disciplines», including
Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Information Technology, Media
Studies, Social Work. They taught both undergraduates and graduates. The
interviews were based on open questions about EMI aimed at investigating …
__ __ __
The interviews were based on open questions about EMI
aimed at investigating:
1. The teachers’ experience in EMI at university level.
2. Beliefs about whether students’ English improved when learning through EMI.
3. Indications of whether students’ academic subject learning was affected when learning
through EMI
4. If teachers were aware of an EMI policy in their
university
5. Teachers’
perceptions of the level of English needed by students to follow a course in
EMI and how they could reach that level.
6. Teachers’
beliefs of the level of English needed by a teacher to teach in EMI and how
they could reach that level.
The interviewer also asked the teachers themselves
what research questions they would like EMI Oxford to investigate in the future
in relation to EMI.
__ __ __
Carrying out [Functioning, Working] a world-wide study
of EMI poses a number of challenges for researchers. EMI is a global
phenomenon, yet each EMI context in each country is potentially different. Each
context has its own vocabulary for discussing educational issues and systems.
__ __ __
The research field of EMI can be conceptualized as
having two dimensions. The first is its presence in primary, secondary and
tertiary education and the transition points between these phases. The second
is the separation between public (state funded) and private education.
__ __ __
Globally, the percentage of institutions in the
private sector which respondents reported as sanctioning [authorizing,
permitting] or allowing EMI is consistently higher than those in the public
sector.
__ __ __
[«respondent», in Spanish, «(n.)
Persona demandada jurídicamente / (n.) Persona requerida para un algo»].
__ __ __
Some teachers also spoke about their wish to ‘attract
intelligent people to their university and share their own knowledge more
widely’. Statements included: «For my university it is necessary to open the
doors, globalization has arrived. We’re linguistically an isolated [remote,
solitary] country. Internationalization is one of the big words here. English
as world language, as the key to success, omnipresent [universal]».
__ __ __
Spain - Public opinion is demanding EMI especially in primary and secondary
education as English is considered a fundamental skill crucial for mobility and
employability and not simply a foreign language. Provision of bilingual/ CLIL
education is considered a vote winner by public administrations.
__ __ __
Germany - No controversy [disagreement], yet. It is expected in
Germany to spend some time abroad [in a foreign country], there are many
initiatives to encourage study abroad. And there is a high expectation that
everyone speaks a second language or has a reasonable level of English.
__ __ __
Our present investigation «English as a medium of
instruction – a growing global phenomenon - Oxford University» obtains data of
analysis of several countries. Now, my person, M.C. Enrique Ruiz Díaz, only,
lists 21 countries. They are, really [in reality], 55 countries study. Next, I
cite: United States, Sri Lanka, Netherlands, Argentina, Switzerland, Israel,
Italy, Portugal, Germany, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Brazil, Greece, Hong Kong,
China, Hungary, South Africa, Venezuela, Colombia, India, Spain, …
__ __ __
Teachers felt that the students would improve their
English by being exposed to it, by having to express themselves and by reading
and writing: «For sure yes, they will be exposed to more input [participation,
involvement, and feedback], relevant input. Yes because they are forced to
communicate with me in English and forced to think in English. I’m sure they
will improve because they have to express themselves and collect [accumulate]
the vocabulary to express and for their writing».

The study was enabled thanks to the support of the
British Council. [That institution] is the United Kingdom’s international
organization for cultural relations and educational opportunities.

Human life has meaning only to that degree and as long
as [on condition that] it is lived in the service of humanity.
Wole Soyinka
I think it's good if a song has more than one meaning.
Maybe that kind of song can reach far [distantly] more people.
Syd Barrett
Everyone - pantheist, atheist, skeptic, and polytheist
- has to answer these questions: 'Where did I come from? What is life's
meaning? How do I define right from wrong and what happens to me when I die?'.
Those are the fulcrum [support] points of our existence.
Ravi Zacharias
Without wisdom, the future has no meaning, no valuable
purpose.
Herbie Hancock
Patterns of repetition govern each day, week, year,
and lifetime. 'Personal habits' is one term we use to describe the most common
of these repeated patterns. But I say these habits are sacred because they give
deliberate structure to our lives. Structure gives us a sense of security. And
that sense of security is the ground [earth, argument] of meaning.
Robert Fulghum
I don't separate architecture, design, or culture.
What's more important is a language of creativity that carries meaning.
Neri Oxman
Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience.
Knowing grass [pasture], I can appreciate persistence.
Hal Borland
Science is very good at answering the 'how' questions.
'How did the universe evolve to the form that we see?' But it is woefully
[unhappily] inadequate in addressing the 'why' questions. 'Why is there a
universe at all?' These are the meaning questions, which many people think
religion is particularly good at dealing with. - [Be happy].
Brian Greene
I was very candid [sincere, honest] in my book because
I want people to know the truth... and that people can change for the better.
Glen Campbell
The Book of Mormon is a second witness [observer] of
Jesus Christ and a manifestation of the truthfulness [exactitude, accuracy] of
the Prophet Joseph Smith. I appreciate the Prophet Joseph. I appreciate
President Gordon B. Hinckley, who is the prophet of God and holds all the keys
of the kingdom at this time, keys which prophets have held in uninterrupted
succession since Joseph Smith.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf
I firmly believe that you can't get a good movie
without risking a bad movie. A good adaptation of your book is worth [value,
importance] it because it is such a wonderful experience to see your world
translated onto [on] the screen.
Cassandra Clare
It's no coincidence that the word 'holiday' suggests a
holy [consecrated, sanctified] day, or that the longest book in the Torah
concerns the Sabbath. If you wish to advance in any sphere, the best way is to
take a retreat [sanctuary, refuge].
Pico Iyer
'Swan,' by Mary Oliver. Poems and prose. Reading from
this book is as if visiting a very wise friend. There is wisdom and welcoming
kindness on every page.
Jessye Norman
Self-hypnosis, and the states of meditations are
apart. But, both are near relatives [families]. Read books of self-development.
Be positive. Mark Haddon affirms: ‘Reading is a conversation. All books talk.
But a good book listens as well’.
M.C. Enrique Ruiz Díaz
I'm not a religious person; I'm more of a spiritual
person, so I follow the rules of the Bible that coordinate with and connect
with the Hebrew culture.
Amar'e Stoudemire
The only thing I can say that is wonderful about my
mother is she forced me to learn three verses of the Bible every day of my
life, and I've read the Bible now five times and it taught me the English
language.
Bryce Courtenay
While the Bible teaches that immortality of the soul
is conditional upon [on] well-doing, it makes no distinction in respect of the
spirit.
Max Heindel
It does not require great learning to be a Christian
and be convinced of the truth of the Bible. It requires only an honest heart
and a willingness to obey God.
Albert Barnes
There is a quiet revolution going on [about, taking
place] in the study of the Bible. At its center is a growing awareness that the
Bible is a work of literature and that the methods of literary [literate,
well-read] scholarship [studentship, learning] are a necessary part of any
complete study of the Bible.
Leland Ryken
All the streams flow into [towards] the sea, yet
[however] the sea is not full. To the place from which the streams flow, there
they return so [consequently, thus] as to flow again.
Ecclesiastes 1:7 - Jehovah’s Witnesses
The existence of angels - The existence of the
spiritual, non-corporeal beings that Sacred Scripture usually calls
"angels" is a truth [veracity] of faith [confidence]. The witness
[observer] of Scripture is as clear as the unanimity of Tradition. …
The beauty of the universe: the order and harmony of
the created world results from the diversity of beings and from the
relationships which exist among them. Man discovers them progressively as the
laws of nature. They call forth [into the world] the admiration of scholars
[academics, researchers]. The beauty of creation reflects the infinite beauty
of the Creator and ought to inspire the respect and submission [obedience] of
man's intellect and will.
Catechism of the Catholic Church
The Godhead, or Trinity, consists of the Eternal
Father, a personal, spiritual Being, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient
[all-knowing], infinite in wisdom and love; the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of
the Eternal Father, through whom all things were created and through whom the
salvation of the redeemed hosts [congregations, multitudes] will be
accomplished; the Holy Spirit, the Third Person of the Godhead, the great
regenerating power in the work of redemption [improvement, renovation].
Principles of Life from the Word of God - Seventh-day Adventists
Attributes of the Holy Ghost [Spirit] - How does the
Holy Ghost differ from the Father and the Son?. Why is that difference important
to us?. The Holy Ghost is a member of the Godhead. He is a “personage of
Spirit”. He can be in only one place at a time, but His influence can be
everywhere at the same time. Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost
are called the Godhead. They are unified in purpose. Each has an important
assignment [task, project] in the plan of salvation. Our Heavenly Father is our
Father and ruler. Jesus Christ is our Savior. The Holy Ghost is the revealer
and testifier of all truth. The Holy Ghost is our Heavenly Father’s messenger
and is a special gift to us.
