Marvin's Ideas

Jokes had been my daily buddy because in reality my life is filled with sorrows and dramas. So, it is more of a remedy to make my life less serious. Reading Funny Jokes Online seemingly kicks my stress and sadness away. It served as closing ceremony, ending my day, filled with laughter. So, I go to bed feeling refreshed and then I wake up in the morning with a smile. That’s pretty nice, right!

Sometimes talking with people who has a great knowledge in some particular things is worthwhile. We can’t even feel hunger even if a couple of hours lapsed. It’s a kind of feeding ourselves with meaningful thoughts which enriches us more and by that it is like inducing food for our stomach. Just like the experience that I have encountered today. I was having a very nice chat together with two of my friend. I consider both of them a wise guy with in terms of the religious aspects of humanity. Well you might be thinking that it was a debate but no……it was actually a sharing of both minds and I felt like being enriched by the facts that they have said. We haven’t taken lunch due to that very long talk but I felt so full of the learning that I haven’t encountered before. It was really fine and very acknowledging and I wasn’t felt bored at all. It was so much interesting.

It is very hard to convince people who don’t want to listen. These past few days I’ve been spending few moments arguing with several people around me. Well it about the very few matters towards religious facts that I believe. The issue was triggered because they found out that I visited a place wherein there is a group of people who are into religious things such as preaching the good news, and reading, sharing and interpreting the Holy Scriptures. I found it very nice to spend some times with them because I just want to be knowledgeable in dealing with my religion. But my family means it as a cult and is dangerous for me but I know more of it because I was the one who saw and witness the place. I appreciate their ways because not like others who are into the same things, I notice that there is peace of mind in there. Not like the other catholic groups around the city, they don’t mind if there are only a few of people in their circle. My friend told me that there are only less than 20 people in the group which proves that they are not working for the good of their group but for the people. I’ve been longing to see a group like this because somehow, in the past, I’ve attended several religious activities but it found it very different. I didn’t get what I am seeking for because usually people shares their richness and success which is in reality is not a good example for what I call sacrifice. I am seeking for those ones who don’t care about success, money, and improvements in life when talking about serving God. Well I don’t want to hit somebody’s pride because it is only what I want and what I believe.

Internet is a learning haven for everyone who wants to earn knowledge about certain concerns. Just like me, I want to learn about car engines, the parts of it, and the state of operation it takes to produce work. It was very awesome to know how this things work since engines do a lot of contributions in the current development especially with the transportation. As of now I still watching several videos to boost up my understanding about this topic but I hope sooner or later I could better expound some details about engines.

I love the convenience brought by the latest Firefox browser that I have. Well, I do visit the same site daily and because of that I want it to be organized. I am a bit meticulous when it comes to orderliness of my personal stuffs at home might as well with my computer activities. So I explored the corners of my latest browser and …whew! I was so satisfied of the features and the capabilities of this browser. Now, with the help of folders, through folders I can segregate everything to its corresponding category. By the way, I am talking about bookmarks of the websites that I usually visit daily. I’ve been finding solutions for this and now I got it. It was really helpful for people like me who does a lot of things online and wants to bring all stuffs to a better order.

Today I will attempt to share a little bit of my understanding about what I learned online. During the past few days I was so interested to learn about engines. Specifically, I am talking about automotive engine since I always wonder of what makes it move and how come it could make an automobile move. Well, after several videos that I saw online, I came up to a point that I understand the cycle of the engine’s system.
So according to what I have seen on the videos, the main operation of an engine is to consume gasoline and produce another type of energy which is the mechanical energy. For short, it converts the chemical energy into mechanical energy to produce work and this process is called internal combustion system. One thing that amazed me of this is that air and gasoline are being mixed up before it is finally combusted or burned. The air is also filtered and regulated to get rid of some particles that are present on it so as to not to damage the engine’s internal parts. The mixing is done inside the carburetor. The amount of air and gasoline to be combusted is controlled and properly vaporized then after this the mixture does down to the combustion chamber.
So, you might also want to say something about this and if you have corrections, I am willing to understand and learn from what you can share with these matters. This is just a quite short discussion of how I learned something from the internet and I will be spending more time for this soon.

Yesterdays post was all about how gasoline and air is being prepared for the combustion stage. Now maybe it’s time to tackle the main mechanism wherein combustion happens. So, let me start by recapitulating the things about the carburetor. So in this particular device a chemical process takes place when air and fuel is being mixed to produce a specific blend for the combustion. It also controls the amount of mixture to be supplied to the intake.

Now let’s go down deeper. Engines are equipped with several parts or should I say networks which work on a specific task. Just like the carburetor which works together with the other parts such as the fuel tank and the air filter which then forms the fuel system. There is also an electrical system which plays a very important role in the combustion stage. It is composed of several major parts such as the ignition coil which works in the production of high voltage energy which will be sent to the spark plug via cable contact which is then called as spark plug wire. So there will be an induced energy supplied to the positive side of the spark plug which will then be passed down to the bottom of it wherein there a positive and ground point is almost in contact with each other. In this part the high voltage energy from the positive point in the bottom of the spark plug will tend to burst and reach the ground side. Due to that there will be a collision of electrical energy which will then result to a spark which will capture and burn the compressed mixture of fuel and air in the combustion chamber.

This might be very confusing in your part if you have no exposure on the terms that I have said earlier. Though I said it earlier that I would tackle about the main mechanisms of combustion system, I realized it that I need to be specific and expound more to be clear enough. So, now I would like to say that in the coming days you would expect me to share my learning more on the specific systems or networks in the engine. In the end of this topic I will put up everything as one and I hope I could hear some reactions or a sort of correction because I am not an expert on this and I am still learning some basics. Have a nice day!

Last night my father saw me in front of the computer while very serious on watching educational videos. He noticed that I am so much close to the monitor and then he said “Wow! Isn’t it interesting?” With that, I turned back at him looking so much exhausted of what I am doing. He asked me to sleep because it seems that I am so tired because it was already 2:00 am and I was still hanging on my PC. But I never cared to take some rest because I felt the need of something to learn. So instead of going down to my bed, I asked my father some questions about what I was watching and it was still about the engine.
Actually he was the one who asked me first about what was the video all about. And so I told him that it was an educational video about automotive engine. My father was not convinced since he knows a lot of this because he was once a driver and was able to explore the engine of different cars and trucks. So he said “That is not an engine of a car for sure. It might be a motorcycle engine or the other ones”. I felt very curious of why he says that and in fact he wasn’t able to see the video from the start. He explained it to me that there are actually two kinds of internal combustions engines that he knows to be used in most vehicles.
He said that the first one is called gasoline engines which are widely used in motorcycles. Then, the second one it called diesel engine that are used in cars and trucks. According to him these two differs a lot from each other because each has a unique means of combustion system. Father said that in a gasoline engine combustion system, the process of burning the fuel relies on the spark produces by the spark plug. While in the other hand, a diesel engine combustion system, only the heat is need to enable the combustion process. He added that if in a gasoline engine system, the combustion depends on the continuous instantaneous sparks from the spark plug, in the diesel engine system the glow plug primes the system for a starting heat and after that there will be an instant heat building up in the chamber for the combustion process.
Well that’s quite very enriching and very well explained. Though my father isn’t a graduate of an automotive course but I know that he has a lot of experience on this. He told me that to never lose this passion to learn more because maybe in the next following days I will be able to take a vocational course to really dig deeper on this aspects. Well, I hope so and I really wanted to learn the essentials for this tough jobs and I am looking forward to work on the industry related to this.

Are there any solutions for vertically challenged people like me? Actually, what I thought about this is that height can only be developed from birth to adolescence stage. So, that would be from ages 1 to…maybe 20 or 22 will be the something like a bonus. Well, by any reason, it isn’t deadly when you’re a short guy but it will somehow lower someone’s self-confidence.

Actually, I am not a tall guy like most people will say. I am only 5’3’’ in height and obviously that’s pretty short. But, most people say that I look taller especially when I’m afar. Well, it is because I wear clothes that will make me look a bit taller. It’s more of an optical illusion but it really does great.
