History of the term.
In ancient Greece there was the word "Techne" which is often translated as art. From this word comes "technical" and America is now the root of words such as technical, technology, etc. The seven muses were the gods of artists in the seven fields of human excellence: • Epic and lyric • History • Choral singing and poetry of love • Music • Tragedy • Religious Hymns • Gay poetry, poetry and rustic comedy • Dance • Astronomy and Geometry

The word comes from Latin art "ars", that literally means skill method or technique, combined with the beauty of the objects produced. In the Middle Ages already existed the word artist, although its meaning is closer to what we now call the craftsman. The artist was who in his profession could do something better than others.

=The present day concept of an artist=

concept art expresses a series of creations, called classical arts (painting, sculpture, literature, dance, music, architecture and cinema). However, considering someone as an artist is not limited to a series of works or concrete creations.

An artist is a person exercising the arts and produce artistic works. The artist is someone who has a special sensitivity to create a work or activity. There is no specific classification of what are an artist's own activities .In any case, the concept artist implies knowledge of art and at the same time, is a craft that can be professional but not necessarily. The artist seeks to create an object or activity that has a component of beauty. Very beautiful is one aspect cherished by the creators, but not only that. It also seeks to communicate feelings and ideas and form their own world.

Painter
An artist is a person able to put their point of view, their way of seeing the world and feel things on a canvas, a sheet or paper. An artist is a dreamer, is a poet, he is a speaker, is someone provided with sensibility sufficient or necessary to make us see things through their eyes.

REPUTATION

The late President, Diosdado Macapagal, who himself visited the University, said that PLM is "a unique university because it is the first community-oriented and socially conscious university in the country." He added that, "it gives poor but deserving public high school graduates of the community the means to acquire higher education." Moreover, he recognized PLM's emerging status as "one of the top universities in the country."[25] Her daughter, President, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo cited PLM for having a "culture of excellence,"[9] and commended the university for what she had believed as its "impressive" accomplishments in various fields.[24][26] The country's leading newspaper, The Philippine Daily Inquirer, described PLM as a local university with a national character and reputation.[27] US Ambassador Kristie Kenney, in her speech during the 40th Commencement Exercises at the PLM Grandstand, praised PLM for building a "culture of commitment to public service in its students, faculty and alumni."[28] In an article in the Business Mirror, PLM was considered as the "highest symbol of Manila’s public educational system which radiates another form of power and influence."[29] Websites such as Manila Board regarded that PLM is one of leading and prime public universities in the country today.[30] On August 13, 2008, Adel A. Tamano, in his column at the Manila Times wrote that PLM is "a unique learning institution" and is "essentially an honors school where only the students from lower income families with excellent scholastic records are admitted."[31]

NEW ARTICLE..MORE INFORMATION

PLM is not a perfect institution, and the university had been criticized in the past for the 'reconsideration' cases, wherein some students who failed to meet the university’s standards for retention were readmitted because of the so-called 'backers'. In order to resolve this issue, the city government has insulated the University from political pressure so as not to compromise its status as one of the country's leading educational institutions.

atlantic ocean

The Atlantic Ocean is the world's second largest ocean with a total area of about 106,400,000 square kilometres (41,100,000 sq mi). It covers approximately 20 percent of the Earth's surface. The first part of its name refers to Atlas of Greek mythology. Scientists say that millions of years ago, there was only one ocean, and that most of the land in the world was joined together over where the Atlantic Ocean is now. Eventually, they think an enormous crack developed in the ground due to volcanic forces, and that the continents started ever so slowly drifting away from each other. The crack would have filled with water from rivers, and eventually the sea might have broken through from the north and the south. Even to this day, the east coast of the Americas is shaped somewhat like the west coast of Africa, but the difference is actually much greater than it might appear, so it is not really an exact fit or even a close one. The Atlantic Ocean is still growing now, because of sea-floor spreading from the mid-Atlantic Ridge, while the Pacific Ocean is said to be shrinking because the sea floor is folding under itself. Geography [http://www.eoearth.org/view/article/51cbecfc7896bb431f68ef68/ The Atlantic Ocean is bounded on the west by North and South America. It connects to the Arctic Ocean through the Denmark Strait, Greenland Sea,] Norwegian Sea and Barents Sea. It connects with the Mediterranean Sea though Strait of Gibraltar.In the southeast, the Atlantic merges into the Indian Ocean.] The 20° East meridian defines its border. In the southwest, the Drake Passage connects it to the Pacific Ocean. Panama Canal links the Atlantic and Pacific. The Atlantic ocean is second in size to the Pacific. It occupies an area of about 106,400,000 square kilometres (41,100,000 sq mi). The volume of the Atlantic with its adjacent seas is 354,700,000 cubic kilometers. The average depth of the Atlantic with its adjacent seas, is 3,339 metres (1,826 fathoms; 10,955 ft). The greatest depth is Milwaukee Deep with 8,380 metres (4,580 fathoms; 27,490 ft) Gulf Stream The Atlantic Ocean has important ocean currents. One of these, called the Gulf Stream, flows across the North Atlantic. Water gets heated by the sun in the Caribbean Sea and then moves northwest toward the North Pole. This makes France, Ireland, Britain, Iceland, and Norway in Europe much warmer in winter than Newfoundland and Nova Scotia in Canada. Without the Gulf Stream, the climates of northeast Canada and northwest Europe might be the same, because these places are about the same distance from the North Pole. There are currents in the South Atlantic too, but the shape of this sea means that it has less effect on South Africa. This is also the place where foreignism takes place.

The Atlantic Ocean and its features
The Atlantic Ocean is the ocean that separates America from West Europe and Africa .It extends from the Arctic Ocean in the north to the Southern Ocean in the south.It is the second largest ocean on Earth after the Pacific Ocean. The Atlantic Ocean covers 20% of the planet's surface and 26% of submerged lands. It is also the youngest Ocean. It is divided into two parts, North Atlantic and South Atlantic.

features
The Atlantic is shaped like the letter 'S', the second largest ocean on Earth, after the Pacific and comprises approximately 20% of its surface. Specifically the area is 106.5 million km² including its marginal seas (including the Arctic ocean), if the marginal seas are excluded comprising 82.4 million km². The volume of water is 354.7 million km³, if the adjacent seas, or 323.6 km³ are counted, if not considered. The width of the Atlantic varies from 2,848 km (between Brazil and Liberia), the 4,870 km (between the United States and Morocco). Its maximum is 11,800 km, a distance that goes from the Gulf of Mexico to Georgia, on the shores of the Black Sea. It has an average depth of 3,900 m. Despite this, the number of islands is relatively small. The salinity of the Atlantic Ocean is about 36 grams of salt per liter of water and the most fished species are sardines, herring and cod. Furthermore, it is the most difficult ocean of the Earth from a commercial point of view.

geology
The main feature of the seabed of the Atlantic Ocean is a large underwater mountain chain that runs through it from north to south, called the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, which is formed at the boundary of four tectonic plates: Eurasian, North American, South American and African. The ridge extends from Iceland in the north to about 58 ° south latitude, achieving a maximum width of 1,600 km, approximately. The water depth over the dorsal less than 2700 meters in many areas, and some peaks above water, forming islands. The seafloor is believed to be generally quite flat, although there is abundant seamounts, plus deep pits. The Puerto Rico Trench, in the North Atlantic, is the deepest. In the South Atlantic, the South Sandwich Trench reaches a depth of 8,428 m. A third grave, grave Romanche, is located near the Ecuador and has 7,760 m. Furthermore, there are a number of deep channels cut platforms. Ocean sediments are composed of terrigenous, pelagic, and material. Terrigenous deposits consist of sand, mud, and rock particles formed by erosion, wear, and volcanic activity on land and then transported to the sea. These materials are found abundantly in the continental shelves and are further ahead of the mouths of large rivers or desert coasts.

Water Features
The salinity of surface waters in the open ocean ranges from 33-37 parts per thousand and varies with latitude and season. Although the minimum salinity values are found just north of Ecuador, in general the lowest values are in the high latitudes and coasts where large rivers flow into the ocean. The maximum salinity occurs at approximately 25 ° north latitude. Surface salinity is influenced by evaporation, precipitation, river flows and thawing. Surface temperatures, which vary with latitude, current systems, stations and reflect the distribution of solar flux as a function of latitude, ranging from less than 2-29 ° C. Maximum temperatures occur in northern Ecuador, and minimum in the polar regions. A middle latitudes, where the maximum variations are, the values may vary 7 or 8 ° C. The Atlantic Ocean consists of four major water masses. The central water is surface water. The tides are a general wave that moves from south to north.

weather
The climate of the Atlantic ocean and land is influenced by the temperature of surface waters and streams, plus winds. Due to the large capacity of the oceans to retain heat, maritime climates are moderate without extreme seasonal variations. Precipitation can be approximated from coastal weather data and air temperature of water. The oceans are the major source of humidity (obtained by evaporation). The climatic zones vary with latitude; the warmest zones extend across the Atlantic and north of Ecuador. The coldest areas are in high latitudes, and correspond to areas covered with sea ice. Ocean currents contribute to climatic control by transporting warm and cold waters to other regions. Adjacent lands are affected by the winds that are cooled or warmed when blowing over these currents. The Gulf Stream, for example, warms the atmosphere of the British Isles and northwestern Europe, and currents of cold water causing persistent fog on the northeast coast of Canada (the Grand Banks) and the northwest of Africa. Hurricanes are formed in the sea off the coast of Africa near Cape Verde and move west toward the Caribbean Sea; hurricanes can occur from May to December, but are most frequent from August to November. The storms are common in the North Atlantic in winter, making the most difficult and dangerous journeys
