EMPATHY.
EMPATHY IS THE POWER OF CONNECTION. IT IS A SENSATION OF
EXPERIENCING WHAT THE OTHER PERSON IS GOING THROUGH. IT IS SEEN
AS A COGNITIVE ABILITY—A TRAIT TO IMAGINE FUTURE SCENARIOS OR
SOLVE PROBLEMS BASED ON PAST EXPERIENCES. EMPATHY MAKES AN
INDIVIDUAL CAPABLE OF CREATING A PSYCHIC AND EMOTIONAL
CONNECTION WITH ANOTHER PERSON. IT ENABLES A PERSON TO ENTER
INTO ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL’S MINDSCAPE. IF A PERSON FEELS
CONNECTED TO ANOTHER PERSON’S MINDSET, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO
MISTREAT THEM, EXCEPT UNINTENTIONALLY. A PERSON GETS TO RECOIL
FROM THEIR EXPERIENCE OF SUFFERING IN THE SAME WAY OF
RECOILING FOR THEIR INDIVIDUAL SUFFERING. IT BRINGS A SENSE OF
DESIRE TO AID THE PERSON SUFFERING.
EMPATHY HELPS A PERSON TO ENGAGE THEMSELVES IN HELPFUL
BEHAVIOURS. NOT EVERYONE EXPERIENCES EMPATHY. SOME PEOPLE
MAY BE MORE NATURALLY EMPATHETIC THAN OTHERS. HOW A PERSON
PERCEIVES ANOTHER PERSON CAN INFLUENCE EMPATHY TO A GREAT
EXTENT. BEING EMPATHETIC TOWARDS OTHERS WILL HELP TO
UNDERSTAND OTHER’S SUFFERING AND CREATE HARMONY IN THE
WORLD.
EMPATHY MANIFESTS IN EDUCATION AS WELL IN BETWEEN TEACHERS
AND STUDENTS. EMPATHY BECOMES DIFFICULT WHEN THERE ARE
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN PEOPLE REGARDING CULTURE, LANGUAGE, SKIN
COLOUR, GENDER AND AGE. EMPATHY IS CONSIDERED AS A MOTIVATING
FACTOR FOR UNSELFISH BEHAVIOUR. LACK OF EMPATHY IS SIMILAR TO
ANTISOCIAL BEHAVIOUR. EMPATHY DEVELOPS DEEP ROOTS IN OUR
BRAINS, AS OUR EVOLUTIONARY HISTORY. HAVING EMPATHY DOES NOT
MEAN THAT A PERSON IS WILLING TO HELP SOMEONE. IT IS AN ESSENTIAL
STEP TOWARD COMPASSIONATE ACTION.

BULLYING IN ADOLESCENTS.
Bullying is currently a real growing health problem
that has gained space, but nevertheless it is little reported,
despite
there are laws in Ecuador that stipulate it as a crime; the way of
abuse has now intensified due to the use of social networks
social and class discrimination. In Ambato, in an educational
unit
The present descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out in
young people from
13 to 18 years of age, through the application of a survey, and the
Results showed that 49% of adolescents admit to being bullied,
identifying with provocation, verbal abuse as forms

Where is the rock?
This is the question that everyone makes when they saw fast and
furious 9.
Fast and furious is one if the most acclaimed movies in the world, in
June the 24 this chapter go out, FF have a saga, Toretto and The rock
are the principal’s characters. Always they are trying to save the
team or helps others buts this movie marked the differences.
Dwayne Johnson better known as the rock did not appear in movie
number 9, it was something unexpected for all fans since they used
to be the boom that everyone wanted to see in a movie. The
differences between VIN and Dwayne begin in the filming of the last
movie. There were many comments where they said that this fight
was to increase the rating of the film. When the film came out and
the media noticed the great lack of the rock, they immediately
interviewed him and it was there that he shared the truth. Dwayne
affirmed that he did have differences but with most of the cast and
thanks to that with VIN too.
Days later through social networks they made their reconciliation
public, the rock put a video together for Toretto telling him,”
I'll see you soon Toretto”, and it is speculated that he may
appear on the movie number 10.

it was very skinny and que can see the bones but Ms. Madis
help it she showered it give food and make it feel better.
Chritophorito is a black French poodle. It is a very educated

Christophorito have a very good behavior it go out to make
her needs, when you said “ baby give me the paw”
immediately he give you the paw, is a very special god.

A FUN ACTIVITY THAT YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR
FAMILY AND FRIENDS ITS CREATE GAMES OR
MAKE YOUR OWN GAMES WITH PAPPER OR
CARDBOARD AND SAVE THE MONEY YOU WERE
GOING TO SPEND BUYING THAT GAME.
YOU CAN MAKE GAMES LIKE CARDS OR CHEST, I
WILL TEACH YOU A VERY EASY GAME YOU CAN DO:
1.First you have to cut on a cardboard, a
paper or whatever you want to use some
pieces like these ones:
2. How do you play? To start you need to
organize the game like this:
To play you have to move the circles
diagonally or up and down but you cannot go
over the other player's circles or yours, the
first person who forms a line either straight
or diagonal with all their circles wins.

What do you think about robots replacing us? Robots are the largest
growing technological device in the world. They perform many
functions ranging from space exploration to entertainment. Robotics
technology is increasing at a fast rate, providing us with new technology
that can assist with home chores, automobile assembly and many other
tasks.
Robotic technology has changed the world around us and is continuing
to impact the way we do things. Robotic technology transformation from
the past to present surrounds almost everyone in today’s society and it
affects both our work and leisure activities. Besides, scientists are
teaching computers how to learn on their own. At some point in the
near future, their intelligence may take off and develop at an everincreasing
speed. Human beings evolve biologically very slowly and we
would be quickly superseded. In the short term, there is the danger that
robots will take over millions of human jobs, creating a large
underclass of unemployed people. Personally, I think it’s fascinating to
consider how we’ll speed up our evolution as a species by augmenting
our bodies. Imagine if you could implant a computer inside our brain!
Soon we’ll be able to do just that and enhance our mathematical ability,
audiovisual
perception and our memory, and this idea is only going to become more
and more commonplace.

Looking at the age when a man led a
life like a savage, we notice how far we
have come. Similarly, the evolution of
mankind is truly commendable. One of
the major driving forces behind this is
science. It makes you think about the
wonder of science and how it has
proven to be such a boon in our lives.
Most importantly, science has helped
develop a great civilization. All the
advancements that man has been able
to make are with the help of science
only. However, it won’t be wrong to say
that science is a two-edged sword. It
comes with its own set of advantages
and disadvantages.
Advantages of Science, to say that
science has a lot of benefits would be
an understatement. The benefits of
science do not just limit to one sphere,
but it has proven useful in various
spheres of the world. When we talk
about innovations in science and
engineering, electricity is the first thing
that comes to mind. It has helped
power the world through its
development.
That is to say, all the credit goes to
science, as it weren’t for science, life in
the 21st century would be impossible.
After all, it is quite hard to imagine a
world without computers, medicines,
televisions, AC’s, automobiles and
more. In addition, science has
contributed largely to the medical field
as well.
Disadvantages of Science, we must always remember
that anything in excess is poison, and science is no
different. If it falls into evil hands, it can cause
destruction on a massive level. For instance, science is
used to create nuclear weapons. These are deadly
enough to cause war and wipe out full-fledged
countries. Another drawback is the pollution caused by
it. As the world became more industrialized because of
science, pollution levels increased. All the high-scale
industries are now polluting natural resources like
water, air, wood, and more.
Subsequently, this industrial growth has increased
rates of unemployment as machines are replacing
human labor. So, we see how it also has a considerable
amount of drawbacks as well.
Therefore, it must be properly used for the greater
benefit of mankind. We must ensure the wise use of
these scientific inventions in order to save the world
from the evil side of science. As Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
once stated that science is a beautiful gift to humanity,
we must not distort it, likewise, we must live by this
quote and monitor the utilization.

While it is now well accepted that
Amazon rainforest deforestation directly
contributes to worsening droughts in the
region, and vice versa, a recent study
published in Environmental Research
Letters has attempted to calculate the
exact percentages of this knock-on
effect for the first time.
Much of the Amazon’s biodiversity is
under fire, literally. In the last two
decades, deforestation and forest fires
have encroached on the ranges of
thousands of plant and animal species in
the Amazon rainforest, including up to
85 percent of threatened species in the
region, researchers report September 1 in
Nature. The extent of the damage is
closely tied to the enforcement, or lack
thereof.
Causes of deforestation could be farming, grazing of
livestock, mining, and drilling combined account for
more than half of all deforestation. Forestry practices,
wildfires and, in small part, urbanization account for the
rest. In Malaysia and Indonesia, forests are cut down to
make way for producing palm oil, which can be found in
everything from shampoo to saltines. In the Amazon,
cattle ranching and farms—particularly soy plantations—
are key culprits.
Why it matters and what can be done. Deforestation
affects the people and animals where trees are cut, as
well as the wider world. Some 250 million people living in
forest and savannah areas depend on them for
subsistence and income—many of them among the
world’s rural poor. Eighty percent of Earth’s land animals
and plants live in forests, and deforestation threatens
species including the orangutan, Sumatran tiger, and
many species of birds. Removing trees deprives the
forest of portions of its canopy, which blocks the sun’s
rays during the day and retains heat at night. That
disruption leads to more extreme temperature swings
that can be harmful to plants and animals.
"No live organism can continue for long to
exist sanely under conditions of absolute
reality; even larks and katydids are
supposed, by some, to dream. Hill House,
not sane, stood by itself against its hills,
holding darkness within; it had stood for
eighty years and might stand for eighty
more. Within, walls continued upright,
bricks met neatly, floors were firm, and
doors were sensibly shut; silence lay
steadily against the wood and stone of Hill
House, and whatever walked there, walked
alone."
— Shirley Jackson, "The Haunting of Hill
House," 1959
OF ALL THE PARANORMAL PHENOMENA THAT
SURROUND HALLOWEEN, THE HAUNTED HOUSE
MAY BE THE LAST TO INSPIRE FEAR. WITCHES?
HAVEN’T BEEN SCARY SINCE THE DAYS OF SALEM.
ZOMBIES? FUN MAKEUP, SURE, BUT A BIT CAMPY.
VAMPIRES? BLAME SPARKLY ROBERT PATTISON
FOR TAKING THE BITE OUT OF THOSE
BLOODSUCKERS.
BUT THE HAUNTED HOUSE CAN SEND CHILLS UP
THE SPIRE OF THE STAUNCHEST NONBELIEVER.
GHOST STORIES TEND TO HAPPEN TO THE
UNSUSPECTING; WHO'S TO SAY THEY MIGHT NOT
HAPPEN TO YOU? THEY'RE ALSO PASSED AROUND
BY WORD OF MOUTH, OFTEN BY SEEMINGLY
TRUSTWORTHY SOURCES. NOWADAYS, THE
INTERNET EXPANDS THIS ORAL TRADITION TO
ALMOST ANYONE: WITNESS THE WEBSITE JEZEBEL'S
ANNUAL SPOOKY STORIES CONTEST (AND THEN TRY
TO SLEEP SOUNDLY TONIGHT).
SCIENCE, OF COURSE, COUNSELS’ SKEPTICISM
TOWARD THE IDEA OF SPIRITS AND SPOOKS. SO IF
REAL GHOSTS AREN'T TO BLAME FOR THINGS THAT
GO BUMP, WHAT MIGHT BE? THOUGH
RESEARCHERS HAVE INVESTIGATED CULPRITS LIKE
ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS AND INFRASOUND
BELOW THE RANGE OF HUMAN HEARING, THE
ULTIMATE SOURCE OF HAUNTINGS MAY JUST BE
THAT 3-LB. ORGAN BETWEEN THE EARS.
ONE PLAUSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR
HAUNTED HOUSES IS THAT PEOPLE
ARE RESPONDING TO SOMETHING
IN THE ENVIRONMENT — BUT THAT
THE "SOMETHING" IS FAR MORE
MUNDANE THAN RESTLESS SPIRITS.
IT WAS HARDLY A RINGING
ENDORSEMENT OF THE NOTION
THAT GHOSTS AND GHOULS ARE
SIMPLY SOUNDS BELOW THE
THRESHOLD OF THE HUMAN EAR;
AFTER ALL, PEOPLE IN HAUNTED
HOUSES USUALLY REPORT COLD
SPOTS, NOT FEELINGS OF
EXCESSIVE WARMTH. AND IT'S NOT
CLEAR WHY INFRASOUND WOULD
LEAD TO AN INCREASE IN SPOOKY
EXPERIENCES PER PERSON, BUT
NOT MORE PEOPLE REPORTING
SPOOKY EXPERIENCES.
ANOTHER NATURAL EXPLANATION FOR GHOSTS MIGHT BE ELECTROMAGNETIC
ENERGY. SPIRITS MAY NOT SURROUND US, BUT ELECTROMAGNETIC FIELDS
GENERATED BY POWER LINES AND ELECTRONIC DEVICES CERTAINLY DO.
COULD ELECTRONICS BE GIVING OFF GHOSTLY VIBES?
PATIENTS UNDERGOING BRAIN SURGERY REVEAL HOW IMPORTANT THE

SURGEONS STIMULATE THE PART OF THE BRAIN WHERE THE TEMPORAL AND
PARIETAL LOBE MEET THE TEMPOROPARIETAL JUNCTION.
