...I am like a lot of people I know who like avocados, but can only finish a half at a time. The other half turns dark and has to be thrown away. Avocados are too good and too expensive to let them go to waste. But they contain an enzyme which causes them to turn brown when they get exposed to air. I want to save my avocados, but how? Experiment There must be ways in order to keep it looking green and fresh, after slicing, and I tried a number of methods to find out which will work best. I got 4 ripe avocados for each experiment. Here are the steps: Step 1 • Cut all the avocados lengthwise, and I gently pulled the halves apart. Step 2 • Pit Method – I set aside the first avocado halves without removing the pit. • Citrus Method - For the...

...Extracting Oil from an Avocado Hyunji Lee Aisha Bada Faye Aquino Dongwon Lee Nicole Bulawan Chantal Zalamea Chelceed Viernes 2I Mrs. Pedernal Biology Research II High School Department Colegio San Agustin, Makati CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Background of the Study Avocado oil is the edible oil pressed from the fleshy pulp of avocados. Avocado oil can be used for both cooking and cosmetic purposes.It is considered to be a useful and natural substance, but it is expensive. Its unusually high smoking point and aromatic flavor make it suitable for both high temperature frying and grilling, as well as an emulsifying salad oil. Nutritionally, avocado oil ranks comparably to olive oil with its low cholesterol level. The researchers observed that avocado is a relatively expensive fruit, purchasing avocado oil from your local market can cost a significant amount. The researchers realized that the reason of it being expensive is because it has a very desirable quality as food oil. It has outstanding benefits to people when it comes health. With that realization, the researchers decided to conduct an experiment about extracting oil from avocados. Statement of the Problem This research aims to find a way to extract oil from an avocado. It wishes to find natural oil from avocados. It aims to know the answer to the following questions: 1. Would avocado be able to produce oil? 2. How would oil be extracted from avocados? 3. Would the avocado oil be beneficial...

Cairns, Australia. 5 – 9 September 2011 AMAP Avocado Marketing and Promotion Working group (former name: AMAPWG) Unique model of global co-operation Presented by: Gabi Naamani Agrexco Tel-Aviv, Israel Sept. 2011, Cairns, Australia AMAP – Unique model of global co-operation Gabi Naamani, Agrexco Tel-Aviv AMAP (former named AMAPWG) – Avocado Marketing and Promotion Working Group - is voluntary organization of Avocado producers and exporters from numerous countries that identified “Mutual interests in developing the Avocado consumption”. The main goal is to develop and extend the Avocado consumption in Europe, along with inspection on domestic markets of the members (plus other markets as well), where applications from one field can be learnt and applied in other. AMAP is a unique model with special inspiration: “Cooperation of competitors” from all over the world, with common understanding that it is much more beneficial “to act together on enlarging the cake than to fight on its slices”. This basic idea was firstly discussed at informal meeting of various exporters during the '4th World Avocado Congress' (Uruapan, Mexico 1999), where it was agreed to meet once a year and to modify numerous existing connections from being 'bi-lateral' to be 'multi-lateral'. Further many steps, for tightening the relationships, were taken in the past dozen years. Nowadays, there is permanent...

...There is guacamole and then there is real, authentic guacamole. I guess it all depends on where you are and who you talk to. Just like there are hundreds of types of avocados, there too are several recipes for guacamole. I am of the camp of guacamole makers who uses a hint of garlic and fresh squeezed lime juice to give my guac a bright tang and balanced bite. Then, there are others like the Queen of Mexican cooking Diana Kennedy, who is staunchly against adding lime juice and garlic to guacamole. She believes that the flavor of guacamole should come from serrano chilies (with the seeds,) white onion and cilantro and that the acid should come from freshly chopped tomato not lime. This is a simplistic guacamole. Rich avocados, heat and the bright acidic juice of fresh tomatoes, nothing more and nothing less. Kennedy warns not to mince any of the ingredients, chop the hot pepper, onion, cilantro and tomatoes to retain their juices – mashing will come in due time....

(Question 1) When I wake up, I start out my morning with looking at my schoolwork and seeing what I need to do for the day and plan accordingly. My parents and family back home in Japan have high expectations for me and I want to do everything I can to impress them. I then attend all of my classes back to back because I’m taking twenty credit hours; my plan is to graduate this December. After I finish my classes, I head up to the library for three back to back Asian centered study groups. My friends and I help each other out a lot; I have found that we compliment each other well because we experience the same stereotypes and can help one another out (Kiley 2012). (Question 2) A common misconception of Asians is that we are complete nerds that have no life or time for anything but studies. Well that’s not true and very prejudice. I have a job just like a lot of other college students. My scholarship covers my schooling but I like to have spending money for myself. My parents say that I am an adult and should support myself....

...class and the Asians as unreceptive. These negative labels may lead teachers to treat ethnic minority pupils differently and this could result to failure. A good example of black labelling is from the studies by Gillborn and Youdell; Gillborn found that teachers were quick to tell black students off for behaviour rather than others. They found that black pupils were expected by teachers to disruptive and have behavioural problems which would be seen as threatening or challenging authority. When this was interpreted wrongly, this resulted in negative feedback from the black students which also resulted in further conflict. They both conclude that most of the conflict that occurs between white teachers and black pupils comes from the racial stereotypes that teachers hold. Bernard Coard explains how the ethnocentric curriculum may create under-achievement. An example of this is the history of Britain, which are supposed to bring civilisation to the 'primitive' peoples they colonised. Therefore, this image of black people as inferior undermines their self-esteem and leads to their failure. However, this is not clear as what the impact the ethnocentric curriculum has. For example, it may ignore Asian culture, Indian and Chinese pupils' achievement is above the national...

...television show, Lost, and how in leans more towards exploitation because of its incorporation of token characters from different races and genders, which hurts more than helps our society, particularly American society, in its goal of expelling racism and sexism. The racial and gender stereotypes displayed in the hit television show Lost contribute negatively to society and its attempt to expel racism and sexism. By having characters that blatantly follow both racial and gendered stereotypes broadcasted on one of the most popular American television shows, it communicates to its viewers that their own stereotypical views on different races and cultures are inherently true and further cement that view point into the American mindset. If you’ve never seen the television series Lost, then it’s safe to say you’re lost. Although the series has long come to a close, when it was being aired, it was one of the most talked about shows on television. The one thing people didn’t seem to notice, and neither did I until I looked at it with a very critical eye, is that a large amount of the characters on the show fit almost perfectly into the stereotypes of their particular race. Before diving deep into these stereotypes, its critical you understand the background story to the show. The television series Lost is about an international flight flying from Sydney, Australia to Los Angeles, California that goes off course mysteriously and crash-lands on a tropical island....

...Barbie Doll. Perhaps the real mark of "Barbie Doll's" welcome has been the numerous times it has been reprinted and analysed. Appearing in 1973, at the heart of feminism's second wave, "Barbie Doll" embodied the rage many women felt at being sexually objectified and treated as second-class citizens. The poem remains popular in large parts because it continues to represent women's experience. When you read the title of this poem, automatically you get a sense of something that is not real, a typical stereotype. This stereotype is seen through modern life today, through the media, celebrities, peer groups, or the obvious child’s toy. “Barbie Doll” symbolically describes the inherently destructive nature of patriarchy. A system of social organization in which the “male” is the ruling principle, patriarchy demands women’s obedience to men. Historically, this obedience has been externally manifest through law, for example, until the twentieth century women had been denied voting privileges in the United States. But patriarchy also exhibits its power through the shaping of mind and self-image. A “good” woman is one who conforms to patriarchal expectations: she is feminine, domestic, and will be a stereotypical housewife and leave the men to be the “breadwinner”. The “Barbie Doll” is known as “Satan’s plastic sister”. The intention of the doll was perfection, and when little girls are brought up playing with “Barbie & Ken” they expect reality to be very similar in later life, as...
