How to write a motivation letter[1] (Cover Letter)

A. The Cover Letter (CL) is the document that accompanies your CV when you are applying for a job. For academic purposes, the document used is typically called statement of purpose, and is laid out after somewhat different rules. The CL is short (200-250 words), with a quite rigid structure and has the layout of a letter. Its goal is to introduce the CV, to bring to attention aspects of your activity that can help your application and are not listed or not presented in the proper light in the CV. In short, its goal is to answer the recruiter's question: "Why should I hire this person?".

Chapter V.

How to write a Curriculum Vitae (CV)[1]

A.The CV (resume, in American English) is meant to introduce you and your background to somebody who does not know you and barely has time to get to know you. It should present you in the best possible light, in a concise and well-structured manner.

B. A regular CV for business purposes should definitely not go over one A4 page. If you intend to use it for academic purposes and not for a job, the CV can pass that limit, on the condition that you use the extra space to describe academic activities, like conferences, publications list, etc.

C. A well-written CV shows first what is most important, but contains all relevant information. To this goal, we advise you to adapt it to your target (specific type of job or scholarship).

    1.此次「法務部開會通知單」（102年9月30日，法律字第10203510820號）所附〈法務部「同性伴侶法制化意見交流座談會」計畫書〉之「會議目的」明言：「依據『公民與政治權利國際公約、經濟社會文化權利國際公約中華民國初次報告國際審查會議結論意見』第78點意見，我國現行法律缺乏對婚姻家庭多樣性之認可，且只有異性婚姻受到認可而不包括同性婚姻或同居關係，因此，國外專家認為未規範同性伴侶組成家庭之權利，是對同性伴侶的歧視，並否定了同性夫婦或同居伴侶的權益保障」，故如何回應此兩公約之國際審查意見，乃此次座談之目的。

「臺灣同性婚姻法制化之調查研究」焦點座談會發言稿

    有關同性伴侶或同性婚姻應否法制化，我已於去年（2012）4月14日受邀參加臺北大學戴瑀如教授召開之「同性伴侶法制化專家諮詢會議」之發言稿〈論法律應保障的性關係與婚姻制度：兼論同性伴侶法制化的法理疑議〉一文[1]中有清楚的論述。本發言稿不重覆前文論述，僅就座談會所擬討論問題表示意見。

   1.所謂「同性婚姻」（same-sex marriage），即同性別者所締結的婚姻。這是否為婚姻？要回答這個問題，就要先定義什麼是婚姻。

  「婚姻」（marriage）意指，締結的男女雙方誓願相互委身，彼此忠誠，樂於共同生養兒女，建構家庭，維繫倫常秩序，以實現人性價值與生命意義的盟約關係（covenantal relationship）...... （繼續閱讀）文章出處連結

Jamie Jorge

Born in Cuba in 1970, Jaime began violin studies at the age of five. 

    When he was ten, Jaime's family immigrated to the United States, and he began lessons with the eminent violinist Cyrus Forough, a student of the great David Oistrakh. He had always dreamed of being a missionary doctor. 

    Following college graduation from Loyola University of Chicago, Jaime was accepted into the University of Illinois medical school in Champaign/Urbana. But God had other plans for this gifted artist. Jaime says, “After months of praying, a very clear signal came for me to leave medical school and go into music ministry full time.” Jaime Jorge's forceful, expressive mastery of the violin has delighted audiences around the globe. A committed Christian, Jaime has dedicated his unique talent to sharing God's love through sacred/classical concerts and special appearances. Since 1988, Jaime has performed in a multitude of settings: from high school auditoriums to the world-renowned Carnegie Hall; from thatch-roof churches to The Lincoln Center and the Crystal Cathedral; from simple folks to the President of the United States. His music has blessed audiences across North and South America, Europe, Australia, Asia, and Africa. Jaime averages over 200 concerts annually, and has performed in almost 50 countries. In 2012, Jaime celebrated 25 years of God’s music ministry. . .

Crossing the Bar/ Alfred Tennyson

A Christian hymn of assurance that God will always be with us for comfort and guidance. Written by Alfred Tennyson, 1889. Sung in the video by the Altar Of Praise Chorale, from their album 'This is My Father's World.' 

Crossing the Bar

Sunset and evening star

   And one clear call for me!

And may there be no moaning of the bar,

   When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,

   Too full for sound and foam,

When that which drew from out the boundless deep

   Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,

   And after that the dark!

And may there be no sadness of farewell,

   When I embark;

For though from out our bourne of Time and Place

   The flood may bear me far,

I hope to see my Pilot face to face

   When I have crossed the bar.

"Near to the Heart of God" Jaime Jorge

Chapter II. The Thesis statement

Chapter II.

The Thesis Statement

A.    What is a Thesis? What does a ‘Working Thesis’ Do?

1. “The thesis statement declares the main point or controlling idea of your entire essay” (Wyrick 32).[1]

2. a concise solution to the issue being addressed.

3. “Frequently located near the beginning of a short essay, the thesis answers these questions: ‘What is the subject of this essay?’ ‘What is the writer’s opinion on this subject?” What is the writer’s purpose in this essay? (to explain something? To argue a position? To move people to action? To entertain?” (32).

4. “A working thesis statement can be your most valuable organizational tool. Once you have thought about your essay’s main point and purpose, you can begin to draft your paper to accomplish your goals. Everything in your essay should support your thesis” (32).
