We chose this project because a mosquito coil made up from natural mosquito repelling plants will remove the health problems caused by commercial mosquito repellents. oregano and lemongrass are easy to find and very common and also if this project succeed this can be profitable for business and can encourage others to look for other use of our country's natural resources.

Statement of the problem:

Recent studies showed that the smoke generated from burning mosquito coil is of certain health concerns– a person being exposed to the smoke coming from the coil may suffer severe head ache, nausea and vomiting, the condition will be severe among asthmatic patients. The emission of formaldehyde from one burning coil can be as high as that released from 51 burning cigarettes. This is because of the chemicals found in mosquito coils. Making a mosquito coil out of natural ingredients may remove these problems.

Objectives:

Have an alternative solution to prevent the different kind of diseases that mosquito brings especially dengue fever and not cause another problem. Make use of the natural resources of our country to solve common problems caused by mosquitoes, especially dengue.

    There are mainly three factors leading to the failure of the existing system at ETO. First, there has been a steady decline in direct labor hours per lots and fewer test lots. Such a decline is mainly due to an increased dependence on vendor certificate, which is a key component of JIT delivery. Number of tests being done by ETO reduces because the suppliers did the testing by themselves. Second, there is a shift from simple inspection services to broader-based test technology. Although ETO provides engineering supports on complex parts, outside testing services are even cheaper, esp. on large lots when only elementary testing is required. Lastly, the existing testing equipment is getting out-dated and is unable to cope with the pace with new developments in high-technology components. Also, the very expensive highly automated equipment is required to test the new high-technology components. That equipment provides longer test cycles and more test data per part. Such an increased automation would reduce direct labor needed to absorb depreciation costs for ETO.…

    There was a time where racism and discrimination was a huge issue. Back in those days, African Americans were treated unequal. There was no harmony between people unless they had the same skin color. Racism and discrimination still exists, but it is illegal to discriminate against anyone, including their race. In this paper, I will compare and contrast the theme of the short stories “Country Lovers” by Nadine Gordimer and “The Welcome Table” written by Alice Walker. Both of these pieces have the same theme involving racial discrimination. They have many similarities as well as differences that I will discuss. These literary works can cause one to gain a better understanding of what many people have experienced in the days when discrimination caused so much adversity.…
