Electricians: Wired for the future! Please help!!!?
WASHINGTON, D.C. (Achieve3000, August 23, 2009). Years ago, when I was in my middle school science class, my teacher assigned a project to create an electrical circuit. Our tools were a battery, a length of wire, and a light bulb. When the light bulb on my desk lit up, so did one in my brain: I knew then that I wanted to learn more about electricity and its power to make things work. That’s why I embarked on a career as an electrician. Recently, I returned to my old school to give a talk about what it’s like to work as an electrician. Here is what I told the students:

Job Duties

An electrician helps to bring electricity into buildings and other structures by installing and maintaining the wiring, fuses, and other components through which electricity flows. Electricians generally specialize in either construction or maintenance work, though many do both. Some electricians also work in telecommunications, which includes wiring phone, computer, and video systems.

Electricians who specialize in construction install wiring systems into new factories, businesses, and homes. Some focus solely on residential work, doing a wide variety of electrical work for homeowners. For example, they might rewire a home to accommodate additional appliances, or they might install new lighting and other electric household amenities.

Maintenance electricians are responsible for fixing and upgrading existing electrical systems. They make any necessary repairs and periodically inspect equipment. This ensures the equipment is operating properly and helps prevent future breakdowns.

Education and Training

Most electricians learn their trade through an apprenticeship program that combines paid on-the-job training with classroom instruction. Applicants to these programs must be at least 18 years old and have a high school diploma or a General Equivalency Diploma (GED). Some people start their classroom training at a vocational-technical school or training academy prior to seeking an apprenticeship. Employers often hire students who complete these programs. These students usually start at a more advanced level of apprenticeship than those without this training.

Apprenticeships typically last for four years. Candidates are required to complete at least 144 hours of classroom instruction and 2,000 hours of on-the-job training each year. While in the classroom, apprentices learn electrical theory, blueprint reading, electrical code requirements, and safety and first aid practices. At the worksite, apprentices are supervised by experienced electricians. They begin their training by performing tasks such as drilling holes and attaching wires. As the training progresses, however, apprentices learn how to install and design diagrams for entire electrical systems. After completing the apprenticeship program, an electrician must acquire a state license. Licensing requirements vary by state, but they normally include an examination that tests knowledge of electrical theory, the National Electrical Code, and local electric and building codes.

Recommended Skills

It is imperative that electricians have excellent manual dexterity and eye-hand coordination, as they are required to work with a variety of tools while on the job. The work can be strenuous at times and may include bending, lifting heavy objects, standing, and kneeling for long periods. Therefore, electricians should be physically fit and possess a good sense of balance. Excellent color vision is also necessary because workers frequently need to identify electrical wires by color. Electricians must also be literate and have strong math skills, along with general science knowledge.

Work Environment

Electrical work is performed at both indoor and outdoor venues. Electricians who work outside may be subject to harsh weather conditions. In addition, the job can be dangerous; some workers sustain injury from electrical shock, falls, and cuts. Therefore, electricians must adhere to strict safety procedures to avoid injuries at work sites.

Hours and Compensation

Most electricians work a standard 40-hour week, although overtime may be required. Those who do maintenance work may work nights or weekends or be on-call when needed.

As of the latest survey from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median hourly wage for electricians was $20.97. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $12.76, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $34.95. Apprentices usually start at between 40 and 50 percent of the rate paid to fully trained electricians, depending on experience.

Job Outlook

Although employment of electricians changes with the economy, job opportunities are expected to increase by 2016. As the population grows, more electricians will be needed to install and maintain new and existing electrical systems. Job prospects will be especially strong for workers who can wire computer systems and telecommunications equipment.

Silver City (2004) IMDB rating: 6.10 Plot: Set against the backdrop of a mythic “New West,” a satire that follows grammatically-challenged, “user-friendly” candidate Dicky Pilager, scapegrace scion of Colorado’s venerable Senator Jud Pilager, during his gubernatorial campaign. When Pilager finds that he’s reeled in a corpse during the taping of an environmental political ad, his ferocious campaign manager, Chuck Raven, hires former idealistic journalist turned rumpled private detective Danny O’Brien to investigate potential links between the corpse and the Pilager family’s enemies. Danny’s investigation pulls him deeper and deeper into a complex web of influence and corruption, involving high stakes lobbyists, media conglomerates, environmental plunderers, and undocumented migrant workers.

Why do Christians hate Jahovah Witness', Mormons, and 7th Day Adventists more than than do Islam and Judaism?
There are a lot of mainstream "Christians" out there, I’d almost venture to say a majority, who seem to be foaming out the mouth angry at the 7th Day Adventists, Mormons, and Jehovah Witnesses. "Christian" teachers speak half truths, twist words, or just simply make up blatant lies to indoctrinate their congregation members and arm them to bash these so-called "cults" as they like to call them. And come on "Christians" you know you do it. I could go on and on, but this isn’t the point I wanted to question. My question is mainly this, to the many haters who happen to be Christians who love to spice things up here on Yahoo and anywhere else:

Why don’t you hate Jews and Muslims as much? or do you hate them equally? Why don’t you stand in front of their mosques and synagogues handing out hate propaganda about those faiths as you do the above mentioned Christian religions? Did you know that neither of them even believe Christ is their savior, yet the JWs, Mormons, and 7th Days do? So why do you persecute Christian faiths? And don’t tell me they’re not Christians- that is the lamest argument: "you’re Jesus is different from my Jesus, thus making you a non-Christian-" any 3rd grader can find the flaws in that argument.

So anyhow, thats my question. I’ve just never understood it. I’d like to know if you send youth trips to Jerusalem and Mecca to bash Jews and Muslims, handing them lying pamphlets and telling them how mainstream Christianity is superior to their faith, like you do to Silver Spring, MD., Brooklyn, NY., and Salt Lake City, UT?
Ready, Set, FIGHT!
Alright, great answers. And if there are any more like ‘guraq2me’s response- be sure to attack Jews and Muslims as well, they shouldn’t be left out. BTW- you never answered the question, although you did imply that at least Mulsims and Jews believe in a God, whereas the 3 sects I mentioned are simply the devils minions… i love it. Keep up the flattering words. <grabs handful of popcorn>

---

I’m agnostic, so I can only guess, from my personal observations, why some christians bash the "cults" and not Judaism and Islam. I personally think it is a simple matter of backlash. The JW’s, LDSers and 7thdayers fight back with words, Jews and Muslims will come back with a fist or a bomb. The bashers are typical bullies, they push and yell until someone fights back, then their cowardice comes out. Jews and Muslims have given ample proofs through the years that they will fight to defend their religion. Just my opinion.

The only hate I see here is what’s flying out of your mouth.

How can disagreeing with a different faith be "hate"? How can trying to persuade someone of your faith be "hate"? How can a pamphlet containing the description of someone’s faith be "hate"?

I thought Christians never hate… I am a Muslim by the way, but in the bible it says to love your enemies, correct? see? you Christians don’t practice your religion, you killed 1 million in Iraq, plus, I don’t see a brotherhood in Christianity. And the bible clearly says to Christian women to shave your head or cover it, I don’t see that either.

The hate and historical misinformation spewed from the likes of Pastor Art have now become so over the top that it can only be viewed as entertainment at this point. I am sure they only want "European" or "white" converts in their congregations as well.

Yeah, who knows? I think it’s funny that some people are threatened by those churches to the point that they focus on bashing them right in church, instead of focusing solely on their own religion. They use the word "cult" to make their point without any real evidence.

Why would this issue be a big deal to YOU in the first place ? Have you read the insults from non-believers (Atheists) who criticize these cults (and rightfully so) ? Anyone can profess a belief in Jesus as their Saviour but words mean very little. You need to do your homework on WHO these cults really look up to as their "Saviour" (and it really isn’t Christ, either - in spite of what you attempt to convince us all of). Cults are not "Christian faiths" - they are founded and revolve around a human being and his or her teachings - not God’s ! Your playing of the "victim" card will gain no sympathy from me. Both, Jews and Muslims (although they take a monotheistic point of view) believe on God [Allah] and you know fully where they stand in their beliefs, whether you or I agree with them or not). But; these cults are "wolves in sheep’s clothing" and only serve the purpose (in spite of "good intentions") of both, preaching and teaching the doctrines of men thus, making the word of God of no effect. In other words, these cults demean and cheapen what Jesus was all about. Now; you tell me whose side these cults are really on (and it isn’t God’s) ?

im a mormon most christians call us a non christian cult funny thing is we follow christ
just because we dont believe jesus is god
just because we dont believe your saved by faith its faith and works they seem to neglect these scriptures in

james 2:14 14What [doth it] profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him,17Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.26For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

the catholics own catholic clubs where they drink and gamble dont that go against gods words?

anyway i can think of more but i dont want to get offensive

lds dont not believe jesus is god the guy below me is wrong

Honestly, Christians should not hate.. unfortunately there are many people who do not understand that. As Christians we are called to show the love of Christ to the world (in other words, not to hate) Jesus himself spoke on the subject of anger and hate in Matthew 5:21-22: 21

"You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, ‘Do not murder,[a] and anyone who murders will be subject to judgment.’ 22But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother[b]will be subject to judgment.

Footnotes:
Matthew 5:21 Exodus 20:13
Matthew 5:22 Some manuscripts brother without cause

But as to why I find say the Mormons’ beliefs to be so contrary to what I believe is simply that we believe in very different spiritual realities (if that is the right term)

Well I don’t know much about Jehovah Witnesses or 7th Day Adventists, but I do know a bit about Mormons, or Latter Day Saints as they prefer to be called. I am going to try to present this as fairly as possible, so here goes:

The simplest answer is that the Latter Day Saints (LDS) claim the title of Christians without believing what Jesus himself taught. The way it was explained to me is that the LDS believe that the Bible was changed to test their faith, whereas someone like me believes that the Bible is 100% correct. As to why I believe it is correct is a completely different story and deals with how I became a Christian.

There are several main points where the LDS differs from what Jesus taught.
1) Jesus said, "It is written, you shall worship the Lord [Jehovah] and Him only shall you serve." (Luke 4:8)
As a Christian I believe in the Trinity (three in one, Father God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit).
LDS believe that the Father (Elohim), Jesus (Jehovah), and the Holy Spirit are separate entities but together they make up the Godhead (Trinity).
But Jesus said that you should worship *the* Lord [Jehovah] and Him *only* shall you serve that is God singular, not three gods as the LDS claim, in fact, the Latter Day Saints Apostle by Bruce McConkie (on page 576-77) says that "To us…these three are the only Gods we worship" this is clearly *way* out of line with what Jesus was teaching

2 Jesus believed in a literal hell, and taught that many people will end up there (Matthew 5:22, 7:13-14, 10:28, 13:42-50, 18:9, 25:41,46, Mark 9:43-47, Luke 16:19-31, Revelation 20:10,14-15, the list goes on)
According to Mormon Doctrine by McConkie on page 349-50, "hell will have an end…after their resurrection, the great majority of those who have suffered there will pass into the celestial kingdom"
Also clearly against God’s teaching

I actually have about 16 of these but in the interests of not boring you to death with the details I’m only going to post one more, if you want to hear the rest of them, drop me an email at meaton09@gmail.com and I’ll do my best to explain them

3 Jesus taught and demonstrated that even the worst sinners would be fully forgiven and restored if they would humbly come to him, confess their sins, and ask for forgiveness. (parable of the Prodigal Son, Luke 15:11-24, Luke 7:47-50, 18:9-14, and 1 John 1:9 which states quite clearly "All sins are forgiven when we humbly acknowledge our faults to God"
without going into the details, LDS believe that forgiveness is based on the repentance but also "there must be works - many works" and you will not be forgiven instantly (there is something similar to a waiting period (The Miracle of Forgiveness (LDS Prophet) by Spencer Kimball on pg 324-25. Mormon Doctrine states that no murderer will ever gain salvation, and there is more… All of this clearly goes against Jesus’s teachings…

LDS believe that Jesus will accept all sincerely religious people with open arms, especially those who do many works and prophesy and call him Lord. They believe that there is good in all religions and although the ones who do not believe what LDS believes will not go to the celestial kingdom, they are left with the terrestrial kingdom (aka the second heaven for people who were good but just blinded by the wickedness of man or something to that effect)
However as a Christian, I believe that "8For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith

Do I have commitment phobia?
I find a fault in every guy I date. Some qualities of these men have "move on" factors, like family drama, controlling issues, no job etc… However, I usually date a guy only once or twice, and I go maybe on a third date, to satisfy my own commitment phobia issues.
But I ALWAYS find faults in guys who want to continue dating me.
For example, I stopped dating a guy after 3 dates, because his hair was too long. But he was nice, and had a lot to offer.
I stopped dating a guy because he talked too much, again after 3 dates.
Now I met another guy on Saturday, who is really nice, great job, good looking, but he’s extremely overweight. But has a handsome face. He has 9 out 10 qualities I am looking for, but I don’t know if I want to continue dating him because of his weight. He’s not sloppy or insecure about his weight.
I am not thin myself, so I should probably not be a hypocrite.
Do I have commitement phobias? Because I can’t justify in my mind why I keep doing this?

You either have commitment phobia or very high standards. I’m sorry, but I dont know nearly enough about this to give you propper advice, only that you should look at other couples and see why they like each other.

You need to like a guy for who he is, not for the totally great guy you have always dreamed about when you were 6 (it is a figure of speach, I dont mean offence or to be stereotypical for that or anything).

You are looking for a perfect guy, but that perfect guy wont ever come. Life isn’t a movie. You need to like a guy for who he is. Who he is included having long hair or being overweight (although I wouldnt date someone overweight).

I think that you might be looking at someone elses point of view, looking at your dates as a reflection of you. This is the wrong thing to do, so try not to do it.

Hey, I did have something to say I just hope it is good advice. I think it is, but just read what I had to say and incorperate it into what everyone else has to say and with your own ideas.

If you are still stuck, ask your parents or a close friend why they like their boy/girl friends so much.

Good luck!

family’s changed to words me and started treating badly very even being abusive to words me .I do,t know why but put with for 12 months and then decided the only way i feed some happiness would be to get away from them so i have try ed to rebuild my life but had got hurt again .The is i am carrying hurt from them all and it not fair now because they walk round laughing and joking like there never did me any harm and it hurts,What can do to get some permanent happiness i know it them and not me i 48 years old
I did not my own family but i was good frinds with familys of my friends

---

I would drop them from my life. To me that means they don’t know what it means to be family.
Mine needed a large kick in the ass by way of desertion for a few months to realize that I was serious.
Then I totally ripped them new arseholes because of what they did. So now they understand, and at least seem remorseful for what they did.
This may not work for you. So use it as a last resort. I am also a very straightforward take no bull shite person.

It’s hard to help out without knowing what your problems are, however, it sounds like you need to open up with your family (and tell them their insults are painful to hear). Since they are family, even if some of them don’t like you they should at least be more considerate out of respect for you, as family. That said, it sounds like you may need to toughen up a bit also, if they insult you don’t just let it hurt, either confront them, or choose to stop respecting their opinion so it doesn’t hurt you.

As for happiness, well there’s only two things that ever seem to lead to life long happiness and that’s personal accomplishment or having your own family. Sometimes those are combined, but personal accomplishment can mean a huge variety of things, just do whatever it is you feel like you want to do but haven’t, you’re 48, you have to have acquired the means to do some of the things you once set out to do when you were younger. Remember those, and achieve.

It’s hard to tell also with your speech (since a lot of people talk strangely on the net) but are you fully literate? Learning to read and write well is one thing that many people set as a personal goal if they grow up unable to, and could be a great start to gaining confidence in yourself, and to re-establishing communication with your family and others.

20 Years After (2008) IMDB rating: 3.00 Plot: Everything that could go wrong did go wrong: War, Terrorism, Natural Disasters. Evacuees were ushered from the cities to refugee camps in the surrounding counties. In-fighting, famine and disease took their toll on the survivors. Now, twenty years after the bombs fell and the plagues ran their course the few that remain live in fear and without hope. Azura Skye (28 DAYS, ONE MISSED CALL) stars as Sarah in this Post-Apocalyptic Fairy Tale about a young woman’s journey to deliver the first child born in 15 Years. Sarah’s refusal to give up is inspired by a lone voice on her radio. Michael (Joshua Leonard, THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT) broadcasts dim and distant messages of hope mixed with the music he scavenges from the dead. Forced from her basement home by drought and relentlessly pursued by those who want her baby, Sarah crosses paths with Michael in a cavernous, underground refuge of disparate survivors. It is from Three Caves that Michael and Sarah will embark on a journey beyond the boundaries of the Southern Corridor and into the unknown future. Nathan Baesel (BEHIND THE MASK: THE RISE OF LESLIE VERNON), Reg. E Cathey (THE WIRE) and Diane Salinger (CARNIVALE) co-star in this artfully rendered vision of a challenging future filled with danger, fear and hope.

People already are irresponsible because of gadgets

For example take cars, they are always improving cars to make them safer in the event of an accident, (airbags, roll bars, collapsible steering columns, TCS, ABS) all used to make cars easier and safer to drive.
But it would make more sense just to teach people how to drive better and pay more attention to the road, because the people inside the car might be safer but what about the pedestrian they have just run over

I do not have a business, but was referred to by a friend because I take photos for my school’s newspaper and I do have experience… This was my first "professional" and paid photography job…. so they offered $75 for 5 hours and i thought "okay thats cool for my first job"… i dragged my sis with me.. we used 2 nikons. we felt we were getting ripped off from all that work for so little.. so we asked for more.. and got $100..for 4.5hrs

1. were we ripped off as beginners or was the pay a good amount?
2. i was thinking to just put the pics on a CD and give them 2 copies.. is that professional?
3. if we get asked again to work, how much should we charge?

please give me any advice you have.
thanks!
the $100 is only for the photo-taking
and I do not plan to give any prints.. bc I have no experience in that..as I said..
*my plan is to just give discs with the pictures*
i know shooting for a newspaper doesn’t make me competent… thats why i was asking for advice on what to do.

*thanks everyone for the great advice.. it’s really helpful*

If you thought it wasn’t worth it than it wasn’t… Your expertise and time are up to you to let them know but you should let them know before the shoot..

I did professional photography and I loved it so much I almost didn’t care to get paid,,But , When I did it as often as I did and as well I figured it was worth it in time and talent . So I charged and if they couldn’t afford it or I knew them I would make adjustments or even do it for free depending on situation..
Because you don’t havea professional job at something doesn’t make it less value..but some might think so. It is totally up to you on that.. You should get experience and learn what is a good fee to charge. Now a days it is really cheap to do photography if you already have the equiptment. It is basically your time that is costly. Or at least for me.
I do so much of it and many times just donate photos to get my name out there,,Be careful though. If you do that often they will take advantage of you.

I would charge about $20 or $30 and hr for my work but if I knew I wanted to do it I would do it for less if they didn’t want to pay..I feel it is more your talent that is worth the cost. Lots of people can take good photos anymore with all the special things you can do with them on internet anymore..I sometimes make them pay for the SD cards but if they do than I give them to them.. That isn’t always good though since they get the raw photos without editing and most good photographers don;’t let others see any of their mistakes,,We all make some at times…I would definately charge for the time and than any prints you have made …or any cds you have burned.REMEMBER to edit all your work,,It will make you look better. If you have to travel put that in experience also..

I never studied photography but have done it on my own ,,I was told that I have natural talent and I even worked weddings and got high recommendations..I just didn’t want it as a job as much as a hobby because..When you do it as a job it becomes work and I didn’t or don’t have to work. My husband rathers me have weekends free and most people want photos on weekends or time off it seems..

I will help you out if you have any other questions. Take care and keep clicking away.

you really ripped yourself off if you took a lot of pictures, since the cost of printing is so high. If i were you, i’d give them proofs of all of them… that is, print one normal-sized photo of all of them, tell them that if they want more prints of them they can:
1. pay you a little extra to get them all on a disk,
2. pay the printing fee plus a little more as a fee for you.

Next time tell them that your fees are for the photo taking only. offer up wallet-sized prints of the photos as proofs, and then tell them IN ADVANCE what your fees would be for each print if they wanted to pick and choose and then think up another fee for them to have a disk of all the full-resolution pictures on them. Tell them that your CD fees are per disk, per 50 or 100 photos that are put on it, whatever you feel is reasonable.

1. ~~were we ripped off as beginners or was the pay a good amount? No. You werent ripped off.~~ You contracted for a job at a certain wage. Live and learn.

2. ~~i was thinking to just put the pics on a CD and give them 2 copies.. is that professional? ~~Did you contract for prints, or CD’s? Did you offer any post editing?

3. ~~if we get asked again to work, how much should we charge? ~~ You shouldnt charge until you learn something about business in general. No one can say what you should charge. No one here knows the quality of your work, and what your local market is like. Photogs in NY make more than photogs in Bakersfield, just to cover hard expenses. Shooting for a school newspaper doesnt make you a competent photographer. Aside from the knowledge of what a camera can do, and how to adjust it to do what you want, there are things that you should also know, that you get from practice. Like composition, using backgrounds and foreground to your benefit, etc…

Try going to a couple of professional photographers, and ask about being an assistant of some kind. You’ll learn more about real world business, and photography, than you will in school.

1. Anytime you have no idea what you’re worth and the customer sets the price, you haven’t been ripped off. You have cheated yourself, maybe, but you aren’t getting ripped off. did you ask for a specific amount more, like a more reasonable $60.00/hr for TWO photographers? In Contract Law and it’s called ‘Offer and Acceptance.’ I’m only talking about the principal that two parties have come to an understanding and it is based on some kind of honest representation in which an offer is made and another party, in full knowledge, accepts. What you didn’t have knowledge of, and didn’t seek to gain knowledge of, was how much work it would be. That is your responsibility. Put this in the section of ‘Life’s Notebook’ under ‘Now I Know, I’m Going to Do It This Way.’

There are very, very good reasons why, we, as pros, charge what we do.

2. No delivery format seems to be expected, at least from your statement, so CD’s would meet your obligations.

3. You now have some experience. We do know that what you charged is less than what it was really worth. How much more will it take to make it worthwhile? There’s your price point. I would suggest $40.00/hr for you and an extra $25.00/hr for your sister when she is shooting. I would also charge a minimum of 2 hours, regardless of whether it was a 1/2 hour gig or an hour gig. You can negotiate around that as you wish. Do not take deposits - you have to give them back. Get a retainer, which is an amount of money that is paid to you to show up and not refundable. The reason? You have sold a block of your time in which you are prevented from doing something that maybe as profitable, or at least more fun. You’ve sold something of value, your time.

Sleep Paralysis symptoms, causes?
So my friend tells me he has been paralyzed for periods of time when he wakes up. He says he does hear voices sometimes and sometimes he cannot move. I myself do not believe I have ever experienced sleep paralysis in my life. One time recently I did wake up with a nightmare, and kicked in real life trying to defend myself against a man with a knife, but woke up able to cover my self with a blanket. I was in terror, but not paralyzed even for a second. Was that sleep paralysis?

Why does this happen, and spiritually speaking I do not think it is demonic, my mother might think so, I am an Armenian Orthodox Christian and do not think that these things could be something evil. I think it is a Medical Problem, but how does it work and how does it affect the body so? I will of course ask around, but still want any opinion on how I can help him and generally be aware of this problem. I saw videos of people in sleep paralysis, but do not know still what is really is. P.S. I want to be a doctor when I grow up lol so good to know.
