Lupine Publishers | Battle Against Solid Waste: Contribution of University Belt Barangays Towards Clean and Disaster-Prepared City
Abstract
Solid waste is one of the major problems in the urban communities due to congestion and improper garbage disposal. This problem may lead to some health and disaster-related issues. University Belt Area (UBA), a congested place in Manila City, Philippines generate tons of solid waste materials daily. Given this condition, it is significant to know the response of the local government units (LGUs) in addressing this type of problem. Thus, this study investigated the solid waste management programs (SWMP) implemented by UBA barangays and its problems encountered in implementing the said programs. The awareness of the residents on SWMP and their suggestions for effective implementation of these programs were also determined. An in-depth interview was conducted among barangay officials. Small group discussion (SGD) was conducted among the selected residents. Thematic analysis was used to interpret the qualitative data while descriptive statistical tools were used to analyze the quantitative data. Findings revealed that programs implemented by ten barangays in UBA are categorized into educational, infrastructure, waste reduction, and regular cleaning activity. These programs are known to most of the residents who participated in the study. In the process of implementation, the LGUs are facing some constraints. These constraints include lack of discipline among the residents, lack of funds, irregular collection of waste materials, location of the barangay, and poor segregation practices. To effectively implement the afore-mentioned programs, the residents suggested some important recommendations. These encompass implementation of the appropriate barangay resolutions, raising public awareness, and imposition of penalties for the violators. Stakeholders should provide strong support for SWM agenda of UBA barangays. Policy makers should consider these data to formulate sound policies which can address the problems on solid waste. The barangay council should review Republic Act 9003 and consider collaboration with Ferris Wheel Project for better implementation of the programs.

Introduction
Every day the world is getting more urbanized. The rate of urbanization is increasing at an alarming rate. United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA) reported that 34% of the world’s total population in 1960 was living in the urban centers. In 2014, this rate increased to 54% [1]. This increase in urban population is brought by the natural increase due high fertility rate of the urban population and rapid rural to urban migration [2]. The rapid rate of migration is attributed to the pull factors inherent to the urban environment itself [3] like better job opportunities, access to health and educational facilities, and high standard of living. University Belt (U-Belt) area (Figure 1) in Manila, Philippines (Figure 2) is an area where colleges and universities are concentrated, hence the name implies. This area is the home of more than fifty higher educational institutions. The Central University Belt (CUBE) area is a seat for twenty universities and colleges. As Filipinos put a high regard for quality and responsive education, population over in this place has increased tremendously. This rise in population then is considered as contributing factors in the escalation of the amount of waste materials generated in the urban setting. According to National Solid Waste Management Commission Reports (2015). the estimated the amount of solid waste generated in 2010 in Manila City alone was 2,990,814 metric tons. In 2014, this figure increased to 3,595, 593 metric tons. There is, however, no specific information that pertains to the case of U-Belt area.
The rise in population in the U-Belt area also resulted to the emergence of additional commercial establishments, dormitories, and other infrastructure development. This infrastructure development resulted to changes in the land use and the increase in the urban surface sealing which increases the amount of surface run-off and decreases the ground water recharge [4]. This condition serves as a challenge to the Local Government Units (LGUs) on how to deal with this problem. The problems on improper waste management and high percentage of impermeable land make U-Belt area highly vulnerable to the devastating effects of flood. High amount of waste materials and improper disposal of these items make people highly prone to the diseases (National Solid Waste Management Commission Reports, 2015) [5]. From the prevailing condition of this place, the researchers came up with the framework on the goals of the implementation of solid waste management programs in U-Belt area (Figure 3). The current modified framework focuses on how the dirty, disaster-prone, and disorder U-Belt area can be converted into clean, disaster-prepared and orderly place (Figure 1). This framework was modified from the framework of Discipulo [6] on urban renewal study.
From the existing problems on solid waste management in the U-Belt area, this study investigated the contribution of the U-Belt barangays towards a clean and disaster-prepared city. Specifically, this study determined the solid waste management programs implemented by the barangays around the University Belt, identified the problems encountered by the communities pertaining to the implementation of the programs, determined the awareness of the residents in the said programs, and identified the suggestions of the residents for effective solid waste management programs implementation. Data obtained from this study is vital in policy making and urban planning of LGUs. This will also agitate the stakeholders to support and participate in the program implementation.
Materials and Methods
Research design
The research design employed both descriptive and qualitative approaches. Qualitative research aims to interpret meanings, descriptions, and symbols [7]. The goals of this type of research are to provide answers to the why’s and how’s. On the other hand, descriptive approach was used to describe characteristics of the population being studied [8]. This approach answers the question of “what” in the study. Objectives 2 and 4 were answered using qualitative approach while objective 3 was answered using descriptive method. Both qualitative and descriptive approaches were used to answer objective 1.
Research locale
The study was conducted in the U-Belt area. The name was given to this area because of the high concentration of the colleges and universities in this place. Originally, this name was given only to San Miguel district but technically it includes the nearby districts such as Quiapo, Santa Cruz. This area covers Mendiola Street, Morayta Street (now Nicanor B. Reyes Street), eastern end of Azcarraga Street (now Recto Avenue), Legarda Street, western end of España Boulevard, and the different side streets (Figure 4). This study covers the 10 barangays as given in Table 1.
Respondents of the study
The participants of the study were the 7 chairperson, 3 barangay councilors, and randomly selected residents of the ten barangays in the U-Belt Area. Ten barangay chairpersons and several barangay councilors were asked about the solid waste management programs implemented by their respective barangays and the problems they encountered during the implementation of the said program in an in-depth interview. The councilors interviewed in this study were the heads of the committee on health and sanitation. Selected residents were asked about their awareness on solid waste management programs of their respective barangays and their recommendations for effective implementation of the said programs during the small-group discussion (SGD).
Research instruments
Two research instruments were used to gather the data needed in this study. These instruments were the interview guide questions for in-depth interview and guide questions for small group discussion. The contents of these instruments were validated by the experts in the field of research and solid waste management.
Data collection procedure
In order to gather the data needed for the study, the researchers did an in-depth interview with the barangay chairpersons and barangay councilors, focus-group discussion with the randomly selected residents, and regular observation was also conducted to validate the results. The methods in the in-depth interview and small group discussion were patterned from the suggestions of Yukalang et al. [7]. The items in the questionnaires were based from the ideas of Yukalang et al. [9] and McAllister [10].
In-depth interview
An in-depth interview with eight barangay captains, 1 barangay councilor, and 1 barangay secretary was conducted by the researchers to determine the solid waste management programs implemented by the barangays around the U-Belt area and the problems encountered by the communities in the process of implementation of the said programs. The researchers prepared the guide questions for interview ahead of time. The guide questions were validated by the expert in the field of research and environmental issues and concerns. The English version of the guide questions was translated into Tagalog so that the respondents can understand better and they can freely engage in the conversation. The researchers asked permission to record the conversations from the barangay captains, barangay councilor, and barangay secretary. Field notes were also utilized to record pertinent information during the interview.
Small group discussion
Eight small group discussions were conducted during the duration of the study. The number of participants and date of discussion in the selected barangays in the U-Belt areas during the discussion are reflected in Table 1. The demographic profile of the participants such as age, occupation, and highest educational attainment were noted during the onset of the activity. Each participant was asked regarding his/her awareness about the implemented solid waste management programs in his/her barangay.
Observation
In order to counter-check the information disclosed by the barangay chairpersons and councilors, regular observations were conducted by the researchers. A weekly observation on the implementation of the solid waste management programs and the difficulties associated with the implementation of these programs was done from March to September 2017.
Data analysis procedure
After the collection of data, the data gathered were analyzed using descriptive statistical tools and thematic analysis. The quantitative data were interpreted using the descriptive statistical tools such as frequency counts and relative frequency. Meanwhile, the qualitative data were analyzed using thematic analysis. In this method, patterns or themes within data were identified, analyzed, and reported [7]. Patterns across data sets that are important to the description of a phenomenon and are associated to a specific research questions are referred as themes [11]. The themes generated from the data were validated by the experts in the field of research and solid waste management.
Results and Discussion
Solid waste management programs in the U-belt areas Results of the in-depth interview indicated that the programs implemented by ten barangays in the U-Belt areas are categorized into educational, infrastructure, waste reduction, and regular cleaning activity (Figure 5). Under educational programs, barangays implemented waste segregation campaign and information campaign. Also, they strictly imposed the “No segregation, No Collection Policy.” They also conducted the massive information campaign about proper ways of segregating of the waste materials as mandated by Republic Act 9003. Barangays are actively allotting budget for infrastructure which will counter the disaster which may be brought about by improper solid management. They have been allocating budget for repairing drainage system and constructing material recovery facilities. Material recovery facility serves as an area to store non-biodegradable materials prior to disposal.
In terms of waste reduction, barangays are now passionate in campaigning for the recycling activities. They encourage their residents to turn waste materials to raw materials for producing valuable products like lanterns and decorative stuffs. Regular cleaning activity, such as regular clean-up drive and street sweeping has been practiced by the local government units (LGUs) as a support to the solid management programs. The specific programs implemented ten barangays in the U-Belt areas is indicated in Table 2. Findings showed that out of ten barangays, seven of them, excluding barangays 395, 398 and 401 are currently implementing the clean-up drive program in their areas. Interestingly, ten barangays practice waste segregation program (Figure 6a). In addition, it was also revealed e that barangays 395, 396, 398 and 402 are implementing the Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) program (Figure 6b). Moreover, the results showed that barangays 395, 396, 397, 399 and 400 are active in implementing the information campaign program concerning the battle against solid waste. Barangay 400 is the sole barangay which is regularly doing drainage maintenance (Figure 6c). Findings also showed that all the barangays in the U-Belt are currently implementing a daily street sweeping activity (Figure 6d) in their barangays. Barangays 400 and 402 are the only barangays which are implementing the recycling activities in the University Belt (Figure 6e & Figure 6f).
Over the years rapid urbanization is taking place in Manila City, Philippines. This phenomenon was due to economic and social reasons. Consequently, the amount of waste materials generated also increases. Bernardo [12] showed that the households in the city generated an average of 3.2Kg of solid waste per day, or 0.50Kg/capita/day. In 2010, the estimated amount of solid waste generated in Manila was 2,990,814 metric tons and it increased to 3,595, 593 metrics in 2014 [4]. The existence of the different programs on solid waste management in ten barangays in the U-Belt area are the response of the various communities to the alarming problems associated with the elevating amount of solid waste generated in the congested communities. These programs are the manifestations that these barangays are abiding to the important provisions stipulated in Republic Act 9003, otherwise known as the “Philippine Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000.
During the SGD, all participants were asked about their awareness on the programs implemented by the barangays in the U-Belt area on solid waste management. Findings of the investigation showed that 89% (31) of the participants are aware about the programs while 11% (4) participants are unaware (Figure 7). Generally, the results manifest that most of them have an idea about the implementation of the aforementioned programs. Awareness of the people about the programs is the outcome of the massive information drive and visibility of the infrastructure projects of the local government units. The high percentage of awareness on solid waste management programs among the residents in the U-Belt barangays is an indication that people are vigilant and participative in the programs and projects of the communities. Their participation ranges from attending the general assembly of the barangays up to abiding the proper segregation policy. On the hand, there are residents that remain not ware about the programs and policies of the barangays on solid waste management. Perhaps, they are not watchful regarding what is going to their communities and at the same time they are not participative to the activities of their barangays.
Constraints on solid waste management
Constraints encountered in the course of the implementation of every project and program makes the implementation itself very challenging. The problems encountered by the barangays in the U-belt areas in the implementation of the solid waste management programs are given in Figure 8. Findings showed that all ten barangays are currently facing the problem on the lack of discipline among the residents. They throw their garbage anywhere. They are particular of the designated places for their waste materials. Barangay 399 and Barangay 404 consider deficiency of funds as a major problem in the implementation of the program on solid waste management. Furthermore, it is also indicated above that 7 out of 10 barangays except for barangays 399, 402 and 403 are experiencing problem in terms of irregular collection of wastes. Findings also show that the barangays 395 and 397 are facing a problem on their location, which causes these barangays to produce more solid waste materials.
The constraints experienced by the U-Belt barangays in connection with the implementation of solid waste management programs in their communities are typical issues observed also in the other urbanized cities in the Philippines. For instance, Reyes & Arturo [13] observed several problems encountered by the community people in the implementation of solid waste management practices in the different barangays in Batangas City, Philippines. In their study, they found that the increasing population, inadequate government policies, public indifference (public don’t care), inefficient collection of garbage, rapid urbanization, non-operation of a good disposal facility, irresponsible government officials, lack of awareness among the people regarding the effects of solid waste management practices to their health and the environment, and lack of training on proper solid waste management practice are major barriers in implementing effective and efficient solid waste management programs.
In the developing countries however, there are constraints associated with solid waste management implementation. These constraints are categorized into culture, education, and microeconomics; infrastructure and technology; and policy, institutions, and macroeconomics [10]. In terms of culture, education, and microeconomics, the major constraints comprise the attitude and behavior gap of the people and lack of campaign on education and awareness. Major constraints under infrastructure and technology include budgetary constraints, inadequate service and operational inefficiencies, ineffective technologies and equipment inadequacy, lack of landfill disposal, and limited utilization of waste reduction activities. Under policy, institutions, and macroeconomics, the major constraints encompass lack of policy, poor enforcement and responsibility, and lack of monitoring and regulation.
Recommendations of the residents for effective implementation of solid waste programs
Some of the programs on solid waste management are not effectively implemented due to the political, educational, and socio-economic reasons. During the focus group discussion, the residents suggested some recommendations to the barangay officials for effective and efficient implementation of the solid waste management programs in the U-Belt Areas. These include implementation of the appropriate barangay resolutions, raising public awareness, and imposition of penalties for the violators.
Implementation of the appropriate barangay resolutions
One of the best strategies in order to ensure the effective implementation of the solid waste programs is to pass the appropriate barangay resolutions. The residents said that the existing resolutions are not enough to support the implementation of the aforementioned programs. Hence, the barangay council needs to pass some additional resolutions aside from “No Segregation; No Collection Policy.” These resolutions once passed should be disseminated to the general public. According to the respondents, in order for the residents to become fully aware of these resolutions, the council should ensure maximum attendance of the residents during the barangay assembly. In the era of rapid urbanization in the cities of the third world countries (e.g. Manila), appropriate policies should be implemented to address the problems associated with high urbanization growth [14]. In the case of the barangays in the U-Belt Areas, in order make solid waste management programs effective the policies and resolutions that may focus on allotting budget for the implementation of the programs, improving the linkages to the non-governmental organizations (NGOs), private sectors, and cause-oriented groups and proper spatial planning.
Raising public awareness
The success of the programs and projects on solid waste management strongly depends on the support of the stakeholders and the general public. The participation of these groups of people can be maximized if they have been properly informed. As revealed by the residents, the barangay should boost the awareness of the people through educational campaign and massive public information dissemination drive. The campaign for solid waste management programs in the U-Belt area can be disseminated well through posting in the bill boards and other public places. Campaign can be done during the barangay assembly; hence, the barangay officials should ensure the maximum attendance of the residents. Cultural and literary programs through songs and poetry can also be explored in order to boost the awareness of the people thriving in the U-Belt Area.
Imposition of penalties for the violators
According to the participants in the SGD, there is a need to impose penalties to the violators in order to make implementation of the solid waste management more effective. Violators, in the context of this study; refers to the residents who are not abiding with the policies and resolutions about management of solid waste. For instance, these people don’t dump their garbage materials in the right bins and throw their waste materials in bodies of water. Those who are doing such should be penalized by the barangay councils. The penalty could be letting them engage on community service or pay offenders can pay a certain amount of money. Community service, on the other hand, could include cleaning the public places such plaza, streets, and bodies of water and repairing of the drainage system. Imposing these types of penalties will create a culture of discipline and support among the residents.
The success of the implementation of solid waste management can be attributed by three major factors. These factors include people’s orientation and strong political leadership, strong collaboration among the different sectors of the community, mass information, education, and communication campaign, and linkage and networking with different agencies and organizations [15,16]. Mc Allister [10] considered potential interventions in order to implement solid waste management programs effectively and efficiently. These interventions include intensified education and awareness campaign, enhancement of public participation, promotion of the incentive scheme, improvements in service operations, improvements in the accessibility of the technologies, utilization of the recycling initiatives, improvements in disposal system, creation of landfill, enhancement in the funding management, and proper enactment and enforcement of the policies and programs.
Conclusion
The programs implemented by ten barangays in the U-Belt areas are categorized into educational, infrastructure, waste reduction, and regular cleaning activity. These programs are known to most residents of the area. In the process of implementation, the LGUs are facing some constraints. These constraints are: lack of discipline of among the residents: lack of funds: irregular collection of waste; location of the barangay; and lack of segregation. To effectively implement the aforementioned programs, the residents suggested some important recommendations. These include implementation of the appropriate barangay resolutions, raising public awareness, and imposition of penalties for the violators (Figure 9).
Furthermore, the concept of eco-city [17,18] should be integrated by the U-Belt barangays in their campaign for effective solid waste management programs. The idea of composting [19] in the urban setting like enzyme-enhanced compositing and vermicomposting [20-24] should also be considered for the aforementioned program. For the future research endeavor, a greater number of respondents should be considered. Hence, the entire University Belt area should be covered in the succeeding research activity. From the major findings acquired in this study, the authors came up with the extension program of SHS Department of UE Manila known as “FERRIS WHEEL PROJECT” (Figure10). It is a holistic, multi-sectoral, and multi-disciplinary project which aims to further raise the awareness of all sectors in the U-Belt community about problems associated with solid waste management. These sectors include business, youth, local government unit, academe, and people with disabilities.

***Narrator's Pov***
Being on the verge of childhood and adulthood at the same time was no easy feat. Most of the teenage boys in Neverland were always horny, and most of the younger ones were always rowdy.
But what's worst was that you were stuck in the middle of it. You were a teenage girl who was stuck going into puberty for the rest of infinity. However, it wasn't all that bad.
As a 'child,' you tried your best to be a good girl. To avoid drugs and to keep yourself 'pure.'
But life wasn't easy for you, and you ended up here, in Neverland, when you hit the age of 16. So yeah, you hit a few bumps in the road, but today wasn't a day for gloomy memories.
***Y/n's Pov***
Today was a day to celebrate! A new arrival just came in! He was a tall, somewhat built teenage boy. Peter didn't intend to have this celebration, but everyone persisted. They all wanted a beach day since it was super hot out.
My first interaction with him was a little uncomfortable... I was barely wearing any clothes, and I wasn't really used to him. This could just be me being self-conscious, though; after all, when I got a closer look- I realized he was really cute-looking. I think Peter noticed...
Now, no one really said this party was for the new kid, but it made sense. He was amazing! He managed to pass all the tests Peter put him through. Peter, of course, wasn't really happy about that. He didn't really look forward to any of this.
Time Skip!~
I was the last one to arrive at the lagoon. I saw everyone having so much fun. Then I saw him. He told me his name was jack. (Not an actual character from the show. You can change his name if you want.)
Our eyes met, and something pulled me towards him. As I walked, a few groups of teenage boys started whistling and catcalling me. To most, it would have been annoying, but I liked the attention.
Before, back then, when I was still relatively new, I dated Peter. That's right, Peter Pan. When I did, no one dared catcall me, let alone flirted with me. Some were too scared to even talk to me. It was nice to feel respected, but it was also getting too annoying. Peter started getting too controlling, and he barely ever agrologic me or my needs.
So, getting this attention now felt great. One because of Peter's face and the way he reacts, and two because I finally feel pretty again.
Mind you, my body isn't perfect, and I'm sure I'd get self-conscious if a new girl were to arrive, but that'll never happen. Consider it low of me to think this way, but I was considered the hotshot here! A lot of people wanted a piece of me! How do I know? Because of Peter! The way his mood changes every time he hears someone talking about me... and the fact that the little ones can never hold a secret.
"Hey, Y/n. You're looking a little hot...." Jack smirked. "Wanna go for a swim?"
"Um. Sure." I already knew what he was planning on doing. It was obvious, but I played this innocently. I wanted to play it through. I mean, he's hot, and this is a party.
And I know it's horrible. I never wanted to lose it to anyone while I was still young. But I'm never gonna grow older, and Peter never wanted me... he was always too busy, so that's his loss.
Time Skip!~
We have been swimming in the water for a good while now, and one thing's for sure: he isn't shy at all. Those hands I feel roaming around my body are definitely not mermaids trying to drag me down. Trust me, I had enough experience from them...
"Mhm..." You groan. That wasn't a moan. He just squeezed my hips a little too hard. I looked at him in the eyes.
"You look thirsty~ Care for a drink?" He smirked.
"Um... Yeah. I'd loved one!" I gave him an eye-closed smile. Then he left. When he did, I saw someone through the corners of my eyes. It was Peter, I know it. He stood at a branch way up in the trees. Not a minute moment did he let me look at him. Clearly, he was watching me. I smirked.
Mind you, our breakup wasn't long ago... I swam towards the shore, sitting down on a beach lounge chair. Finally, Jack came back with the drinks. He handed me a cup. The liquid was purple. I could smell it, too... It was clearly spiked. He made a worried face when he saw me smell it, but I only smiled as I drank it all in one sip. He smiled.
But all I could focus on was Peter... He was up on a different tree. No one noticed him at all, but I did. I saw how his fists tightened as I walked with Jack.
"Hey, Jack. I have a great idea!" I said so eagerly. I grabbed his arm, pushing it in-between my breasts. He smirked.
"I think I have the same idea that you do~" Clearly, he was drunk. I don't think he knew that I wasn't a lightweight. But that doesn't matter.
I knew it was bad... but I had a plan. When I dated Peter, he'd always brush me off, but now, when I was up for grabs, he'd act like this?! Clearly, it was high time he saw the mistake he made for leaving me ignored all this time.
I walked towards the woods with Jack in my hands, and things got a whole lot of steamers. The best part was Peter watched it all! I don't even think he blinked!
Though, it wasn't what I expected... it hurt like he*l, and Jack was too drunk to stop for me. He cum, and I had to fake it. Mainly because I wanted this to end... I only did this to fuc* with Peter. I wanted to show him that he would never be able to be my first ever again... And I know how important it is for him to be first every single time.
Though, he did something I never expected...
***Peter's Pov***
So, she thinks she can play mind games with me...?! That little slut. I allowed them to finish. I waited patiently... though she didn't make it easy. Her moans were so god dame loud that it was clearly fake. What's worse was the guy was completely clueless about all of this.
However, that doesn't mean he isn't a part of it... I intend to make them BOTH suffer!
Time skip!~
Finally, that shi* head left...
"Wait!" Y/n called out of nowhere... What is she up to now... "Don't you..." She wiggled her naked body, tempting me... "Want to go again?" She smirked. She was looking directly at me, but that lowly dim whit never realized I was standing right behind him, up on a tree branch. So, in the end, he thought she was looking at him. He dropped his clothes once again, smirking as he turned around. He started walking towards her.
I could have killed him right then and there. All because he turned around... I couldn't let it happen again. I jumped down in between them. He was clearly off guard. That smirk vanished now. I only blinked at him. Staring him down, he was clearly uncomfortable. He tried covering himself up pathetically. I only turned around- I'll deal with him later.
As he ran, I gave Y/n a death glare, and she knew what was coming to her. She wasn't acting all high and mighty now... I walked closer to her as she backed up against a tree. I watched as her virgin blood dripped down her legs. My breath became heavy, and she clearly noticed... my little friend was poking out.
"This is what you wanted right- Y/n?" Her knees quivered as if she couldn't keep herself up any longer. She didn't even bother apologizing.
My face was inches away from her now. I'm sure she sees the red in my eyes. I towered over her, my arms caging her in. My eyes didn't move away from hers as I said- "Do I need to brand you? Just so you'll understand... That you'll never belong to anyone else but me."
The birds rustled the trees as the wind howled. It was getting late, but I didn't care. She needs to be reminded that she isn't human. That- all she is is my toy, and that I get to choose whether I want to play with her or not.
I bite her neck hard, causing her to squeal. I squeezed my teeth into her skin, that I felt blood... her blood- touching my chin. While that happened, I pulled my pants down.
I saw that she had her eyes closed the entire time. I grabbed onto her throat, squeezing it tightly. I wanted to make sure she looked at me the way I looked at her while she was getting fuc*ed. I could tell she was scared. She kept her hands close to herself, and her eyes started watering. It was probably because she couldn't breathe. I giggled. I had a big smile on my face as I shoved my di*k into her tight pus*y.
"Ackk!" She yelped in pain as her back arched.
"Tch. Tell me why I should have craved this again?" I smiled. To her, I probably looked so evil as I thrust myself into her. "After all, this was your plan, right? To make me regret not wanting you the way you wanted me. To make me jealous, to make me beg for you!?"
She didn't say anything but moans and groans. The only answer I liked. Our s*x was so messy. Clearly, the other guy didn't pop her cherry fully because more blood kept coming.
"Now, if you're going to fu*k someone... at least make sure they do it right!" I said with a massive thrust, causing her to moan my name. At this point, saliva was dripping down her mouth. It was a huge turn-on. I connected my lip with hers as I kept pounding her into this tree. When I left her lips, a string of saliva connected us. As I felt her blood dripping down my legs... "God, this felt so good," I muttered through gritted teeth. As I listened to her moans and our skin slapping each other... I almost came... however, I realized something.
"Look at that- you got your nasty blood on my shoes!" I slapped her hard. Her cheek turned so red I couldn't help but laugh as I continued fuc*ing her throughout the night.

The Next Day
***Felix's Pov***
"Jack!?" I was knocking at Jack's door, trying to wake him up so I could show him how to do all the chores...
Screw this. I bust open the door out of frustration. "JACK!" I yelled, but he wasn't even here... weird. Where could he have gone? I mean, he doesn't even know Neverland, so why would he just flat-out leave.
I rolled my eyes... why do I have a feeling that Peter's behind this...?

Hey yall! so for the past few days i have been coming up with some little ideas for an undertale AU based off of the queen alphys ending. At first i didnt really have a complete idea as to what it was gonna be about (i just wanted to see science peoples tbh) but i just decided to flesh out some ideas and character designs to see where it gets me. However, i have finally come up with the name and idea of Agrotale!!! Agrology is the application of science to agriculture which fits perfectly of the context of the AU! Yay! If you dont know, to get the queen alphys ending in undertale you have to do a normal genocide run UNTIL you get to hotland, in which you abandon genocide and only kill mettaton. So not many characters are left in the game. In these drawings i hadnt come up with the name yet so ignore the "queen alphys ending AU" in the corner lol. I'll probably draw Muffet next later today 😁 OOH, AND HUGE THANKS TO ALL OF MY TIKTOK MUTUALS HELPING ME OUT WITH DESIGNS AND IDEAS YALL ARE THE BEST ❤❤💪💪💪

Automated Feeding Systems Market Growth, Analysis, Report 2022-2029
BlueWeave Consulting, a leading strategic consulting and market research firm, in its recent study, estimated the global automated feeding systems market size at USD 4.22 billion in 2022. During the forecast period between 2023 and 2029, BlueWeave expects the global automated feeding systems market size to grow at a CAGR of 6.95% reaching a value of USD 8.56 billion by 2029. Growing dairy farm sizes, dairy animal populations, advancements in dairy technology, and spurring demand for dairy products are key driving factors for the global market for automated feeding systems. The market for automated feeding systems will see profitable opportunities, as major businesses focus on technological breakthroughs, product launches, and development, along with a variety of services.
Global Automated Feeding Systems Market – Overview
Automatic feeding refers to feeding in which the material or part being processed is inserted into or removed from the point of operation by a method or means that does not require an operator to take any action on each press stroke. Compared to the typical chain feeders used on neighborhood farms, an autonomous feeding system is 85% more energy efficient. The system's many components are expertly made to reduce energy loss in the form of heat. As a result, the operation is highly effective.

Global Automated Feeding Systems Market – By Component
Based on component, the global automated feeding systems market is segmented into hardware, software, and services. The hardware component accounts for the largest share of the global automated feeding systems. The growth of this segment is mainly attributed to the industry's prominent demand for automated feeding machines. An automatic feeder will help to reduce overfeeding by measuring out the quantities for animals at regular intervals and promoting their stable growth and development.
Impact of COVID-19 on Global Automated Feeding Systems Market
The unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic affected the growth of the global automated feeding systems market. The United States, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom, India, and China, which were adversely impacted by the spread of the coronavirus, had previously been noted as having the highest demand for automatic feeding machines. This demand has since decreased due to the supply chains being hampered by the coronavirus. Additionally, due to a labor shortage, a decline in market demand, and a desire to save costs, a number of market participants stopped their production activities for a few weeks. Contrarily, a small number of players chose to lay off workers in order to survive the COVID-19 health crisis, which had a detrimental impact on the market expansion.

Indicative Budget
Based on the total expected cost of the creative installation being $58,500, the project falls within the client's budget of $40,000-$70,000. This means that there is plenty of additional room in the budget to accommodate for unforeseen circumstances and expenditures, opportunities to expand the project by adding more features, making changes to elements of the proposed project, and so on.

how many plugins can skyrim handle - Li Creative
💾 ►►► DOWNLOAD FILE 🔥🔥🔥
Well, I managed to hit the plugin limit tonight, ran an automated bash patch which allowed me to add a few more mods; but hit it again. SSE Engine Fixes, however, raises this limit to There are plugin limits. Between esl plugins if they are full of new records although the theoretical limit is , testing is still under way on that. Make sure to SSE Engine fixes to increase the maximum number of file handles to avoid the false save corruption bug. Essentially, on the Xbox One, players of either Fallout 4 or Skyrim are now only able to run the games with up to mods active at any time. You will be able to install more mods, however, and you can enable or disable them at your leisure. Really just comes down to what you want and your load order, but you can definitely hit the caps of mods and 5 gigs and be fine. Most users claim that the random crashing to desktop while playing Skyrim can be attributed to your shadow settings. No matter how good your PC is, this problem can affect you and you can try to solve it using the simplest of all tweaks: lowering the quality of shadows or turning them off completely. Do ESL count toward plugin limit? The absolute upper-limit is total mods. This only counts certain types of mods, though; specifically, ones that add a. There are currently 47 mods available for PS4 users, in comparison to on Xbox One. The amount of mods available will continue to grow as the Skyrim Special Edition gains more players who invest more time into the remastered release, of course. We refer to the program as xEdit for short. When started xEdit will automatically find the Data directory. They are often the core files of a game or a core file for a mod. An Encapsulated PostScript ESP file is a type of vector image file that contains several elements — including two-dimensional vector graphics, text and bitmap images. Just as with portable document format PDF files, EPS files allow you to transfer information across different operating systems. English for Specific Purposes ESP is a learner-centered approach to teaching English as an additional language, which focuses on developing communicative competence in a specific discipline such as academics, accounting, agrology, business, IT, teaching, and engineering.
