CARE model senarios

1. If I had a crush on this person and she offered to smoke a joint with me I would tell her that it is her life and she can if she wants because I wont stop her but I also won't join her. while not doing anything about the situation I am also having her make the decision.

2. If this happened where I was dishonest on my resume and got the job instead of my friend who worked hard for it, I know I would feel bad for this, so I would do my best to have the job turned over to my friend by showing the internship that he deserves it more than myself.

3. Here I would continuously encourage this friend to seek help for himself, and if this fails over time I would not know what to do so I would seek help from a professional for advice of what to do and where to go from there.

4. I would stay first of all because a factory against the few people that do climb over, the factory would win for sure and have u behind bars, now if this factory was committing crime by doing this I would go straight to the police or a higher up in order to help the cause.

5. In this case saving Innocent civilians is a priority but human rights are not to be disobeyed, but on the other hand there are many interrogation tactics that don't involve violating the human rights of this person. There are tactics within conversation that can help in this situation.

WIC Preparation

The preparation was important and informative where we would frame the issues that we signed up for, but to the ones that attended the conference i believe they should have brought discussion questions to the presentations so they wouldn't be put on the spot. As we know, not many grade 12's took place in this conference partially due to other events like snowboarding which included myself. Next year I think the dates should be more clearly arranged so that every student has the time to go and knows it is mandatory in order to notice who came and who didn't.

2012 Prediction

My prediction for the 2012 world issue of North Korea is that since Kim Jong Il is currently dead I believe there will be protests and many sides including South Korea trying to over run the government. We heard of the protests in Egypt and Libya and in depth behind it and i feel North Korea will be something like that. Although it may possibly be on a smaller scale because there isn't many respected human rights in North Korea so many would be scared to stand up.

AIC- NSA reflection (Blog 9)

Lebanon March 14th Coalition,
The game may have started out slow for the March 14th Coalition but I think your ability to not be discouraged and to stay in the game after being ousted from power was commendable. You ultimately managed to overcome your loss of power and find a peaceful common ground with Hezbollah. You stated in your Strategic Goal Statement that you “would not side with Israel, ever” and in the end of the simulation you proved your dedication to that statement in your final Press Release when Saad Hariri announced “Israel does not have our support moving forward”. Congratulations on a successful game, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors! It has truly been a pleasure working with you in this simulation.
Sincerely,
Mikky





I think our group (Lebanon) did good in restoring relations between Hezbollah and in the end waged war on Israel. What I think we or I could have done better is worked faster and replying quicker, getting further into the conflict and attacking Israel sooner therefore receiving the consequences and the achievements.

Mosh - Eminem (Blog 8)

This is Bin Laden, look at his head noddin' How could we allow something like this without pumping our fists Now this is our final hour Let me be the voice in your strength and your choice Let me simplify the rhyme just to amplify the noise Try to amplify the times it, and multiply by six...Teen million people, Are equal at this high pitch Maybe we can reach alqueda through my speech Let the president answer a higher anarchy Strap him with an Ak-47, let him go, fight his own war Let him impress daddy that way No more blood for oil, we got our own battles to fight on our own soil No more psychological warfare, to trick us to thinking that we ain't loyal If we don't serve our own country, we're patronizing a hero Look in his eyes its all lies The stars and stripes, they've been swiped, washed out and wiped And replaced with his own face, Mosh now or die If I get sniped tonight you know why,Cause I told you to fight.

Eminem has a very powerful voice to the public and is using it here. he is saying that President Bush gave the US army guns, support and the funds and sent them somewhere to fight for their country. On the other hand Eminem says he will fight with his army and be right in the middle of the battle, and he encourages people to fight for their country and for what they believe. Hes also saying we are fighting wars that we shouldn't be in different countries because we have our own battles in America.

To act or not to act

November 17, a Thursday my brother had just turned nineteen and wanted to go to a club in Hamilton to drink and have a good time. We had planned that I would drive him and his friends to this club and pick them up. On the door they had a sign saying the night will go till two A.M., but the music shut off at about 12:45. To my brother this was a waste of his money and he wanted to make a point by attempting to get his money back. He tried everything he could, talked to people who just told him to talk to other people, this turned into yelling and one of the younger managers completely disagreed with him. When my brother finally stepped outside and we started walking to my car this manager came out and told my brother to take the money from him by fighting him. My brother didn't want to fight him because there was no point it was over twenty dollars and my brother was a relaxed person. This guy was about the same build and height as my brother and wanted to fight him over twenty dollars. This whole time i wanted to leave and not have this happen, ending the night that early wasn't nice of them but i didn't feel it was necessary for my brother to act the way he did. As these two were face to face i wanted and thought about acting to split them apart but couldn't, I guess i felt i would get involved in it all if i stepped in but I also knew my brother could handle himself no problem. They did end up fighting, it wasn't long and my brother didn't get a scratch, he gave the other guy a bloody nose. I should have acted and i still think about it even though the conflict was not at large or had any serious risk.
