How to Use a Printer

Instructions

Using a printer even basic printer is extremely easy to do. There are many different models of printers out there. You have your very basic to your all-in-one printer. The printer with everything on it works pretty much just like the regular printer you just have a lot more buttons to push.
Make sure that your printer is hooked up properly before using it. If this is a brand new printer then it will go through a check and print out a test page for you. A lot of different times you can just turn it on, you will hear the ink moving around. Something might come up on the computer telling you that the printer is on and working properly.
Open the page you want to print. If you are on the Internet and want to print something from there. All you have to do is go up to file, then down to page set up. This will give you more printing options to choose from. When you are done setting up the page you can verify you have the right printer hooked up by clicking on "Printer" at the bottom. Once everything looks good click on "OK" and now your page should print out.
Open up a ".doc" file if that is where your page is that you need to print. When you are ready to print go up to "File" and "Print Setup". Again you can choose how you want your page to look, and check and make sure the right printer is installed. If your page is set up the way you like it you can just click on the printer icon on the tool bar or go to "File" then "Print.
Using a printer a lot over time will start to wear down your ink supply. Some models of printers let you know when your ink supply is getting low. If you have an older printer you will just have to go by what the printed page looks like. If it is very worn and faded then it is time to install a new ink cartridge.

Lirik Lagu Bahasa Inggris

We will not go down

A blinding flash of white light
Lit up the sky over Gaza tonight
People running for cover
Not knowing whether they're dead or alive

They came with their tanks and their planes
With ravaging fiery flames
And nothing remains
Just a voice rising up in the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsty.com/michael-heart-we-will-not-go-down-lyrics.html ]
Women and children alike
Murdered and massacred night after night
While the so-called leaders of countries afar
Debated on who's wrong or right

But their powerless words were in vain
And the bombs fell down like acid rain
But through the tears and the blood and the pain
You can still hear that voice through the smoky haze

We will not go down
In the night, without a fight
You can burn up our mosques and our homes and our schools
But our spirit will never die
We will not go down
In Gaza tonight

Freedom - lyrics

We've been through some hard times
Sometimes just barely getting by
But Heaven knows how we've tried
To keep our hope alive

I can feel the winds of change
Blowing hard and turning a new page
In the story of our lives
And we have survived
On sheer will and pride

CHORUS
We want Freedom,
Freedom to go out and chase our dreams
All we need is our
Freedom
We don't wanna live under tyranny
We just wanna be free

Though the road may be rough
We can make a stand and show what we're made of
Cuz we've really had enough
Of promises in vain
The time has come for change

CHORUS
We want Freedom,
Freedom to go out and chase our dreams
All we need is our
Freedom
We don't wanna live under tyranny
We just wanna be free

Gotye Feat Kimbra – Somebody That I Used To Know

Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
I told myself that you were right for me,
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it’s to make us still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end, always the end
So when we felt that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I’ll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn’t have to cut me out
Think that love could never happen and that we were nothing
But I don’t even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger
And I feel so rough

No, you didn’t have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect you records
And then change your number
Guess that I don’t need that thou
Now you’re just somebody that I used to know

Now you’re just somebody that I used to know
Now you’re just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of moments that you screwed me over
But I may believe that it was always something that I’d done
But I don’t wanna’ live that way,
reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go,
and I wouldn’t catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know-oh-oh

but you didn’t have cut me out
think that love could never happen and that we were nothing (oh)
but I don’t even need your love, but you treat me like a stranger
and I feel so rough

(oh)

No, you didn’t have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect you records
And then change your number (oh)
Guess that I don’t need that thou
Now you’re just somebody that I used to know

somebody that I used to know
somebody (now your just somebody that I used to know)
that I used to know
somebody that I used to know
somebody (somebody)
that I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know
I used to know
Somebody

Coldplay - Paradise Lyrics

Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo.
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo.

When she was just a girl,
She expected the world,
But it flew away from her reach,
So she ran away in her sleep.

Dreamed of para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Every time she closed her eyes.

Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo.
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo.

When she was just a girl,
She expected the world,
But it flew away from her reach,
And the bullets catch in her teeth.

Life goes on,
It gets so heavy,
The wheel breaks the butterfly.
Every tear, a waterfall.
In the night,
The stormy night,
She closed her eyes.
In the night,
The stormy night,
Away she flied.

I dream of para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

She dreamed of para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

La-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la.

Still lying underneath the stormy skies.
She said oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.
I know the sun's set to rise.

This could be para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

This could be para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

Oh, oh. Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo.

This could be para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Para-para-paradise,
Whoa-oh-oh oh-oooh oh-oh-oh.

Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo...

When I see you smile

Sometimes I wonder
How I'd ever make it through,
Through this world without having you
I just wouldn't have a clue

'Cause sometimes it seems
Like this world's closing in on me,
And there's no way of breaking free
And then I see you reach for me

Sometimes I wanna give up
I wanna give in,
I wanna quit the fight
And then I see you, baby
And everything's alright,
everything's alright

When I see you smile
I can face the world, oh oh,
you know I can do anything
When I see you smile
I see a ray of light, oh oh,
I see it shining right through the rain
When I see you smile
Oh yeah, baby when I see you smile at me

Baby there's nothing in this world
that could ever do
What a touch of your hand can do
It's like nothing that I ever knew

And when the rain is falling
I don't feel it,
'cause you're here with me now
And one look at you baby
Is all I'll ever need,
you're all I'll ever need

Chorus

Sometimes I wanna give up
I wanna give in,
I wanna quit the fight
And then I see you baby
And everything's alright,
everything's alright

So right...

TEACHING ENGLISH AT VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL

yunatraa@gmail.com (Anonymous) — Fri, 16 Nov 2012 06:56:00 -0800

TEACHING ENGLISH AT VOCATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL - Vocational education or vocational education and training (VET) is an education that prepares trainees for jobs that are based on manual or practical activities, traditionally non-academic, and totally related to a specific trade, occupation, or vocation. It is sometimes referred to as technical education as the trainee directly develops expertise in a particular group of techniques.

Vocational education may be classified as teaching procedural knowledge. This can be contrasted with declarative knowledge, as used in education in a usually broader scientific field, which might concentrate on theory and abstract conceptual knowledge, characteristic of tertiary education. Vocational education can be at the secondary or post-secondary level and can interact with the apprenticeship system. Increasingly, vocational education can be recognised in terms of recognition of prior learning and partial academic credit towards tertiary education (e.g., at a university) as credit; however, it is rarely considered in its own form to fall under the traditional definition of higher education.

Up until the end of the twentieth century, vocational education focused on specific trades such as, for example, those of automobile mechanic or welder, and it was therefore associated with the activities of lower social classes. As a consequence, it carries some social stigma. Vocational education is related to the age-old apprenticeship system of learning.

However, as the labor market becomes more specialized and economies demand higher levels of skill, governments and businesses are increasingly investing in the future of vocational education through publicly funded training organizations and subsidized apprenticeship or traineeship initiatives for businesses. At the post-secondary level vocational education is typically provided by an institute of technology, or by a local community college.

Vocational education has diversified over the 20th century and now exists in industries such as retail, tourism, information technology, funeral services and cosmetics, as well as in the traditional crafts and cottage industries.

If you are looking to enter the field of education, there are many opportunities for professional educators from secondary education to university level. Experienced technicians serve as faculty and instructors in secondary schools, community colleges, technical schools and vocational schools for adults.

While at secondary level, schools tend to be professional or nonvocational, many middle and high schools offer vocational classes and special topics. If you enjoy working with preteens, you could go for a teaching career with this age group. Sewing, cooking and carpentry are some options for teaching in middle school.

A secondary school level, there are many more opportunities for professional educators. City and regional high vocational schools often have different training programs but include trades such as welding, automotive technology, machining, nursing, medical technician, dental hygiene and cosmetology. In addition to professional teachers specialized vocational high schools also need teachers for core subjects like English, mathematics and science.

Garis bawahi sekali lagi, peran semua pihak sangat berarti dan menjadi acuan penilain keberhasilan.

           Dear Mr. Sumiyoto,
           First of all, congratulation on being appointed as the school principal of SMK Putra Bangsa.
           I am contacting you because in my position as Vocational School supervisor in Medan I see a lot of energy being wasted. Every night, almost all of the lights in your school are on. I believe that you have put up signs "Please turn off lights when leaving this room" but they are often ignored.
