...The Epiphany of Veggies Weatherly Composition I There is a saying that your taste buds develop over time. There is also a saying that you will appreciate things as you get older. There is also that age-old saying that everyone I have ever known has heard at one time or another from their mother, “Eat your veggies”. It is interesting to note how all of these sayings that are so common in our development just happen to ring true. This essay is about that moment of when I found that I really did like veggies. Growing up I couldn’t stand most veggies that my mother served. Outside of corn on the cob, drenched in butter, my mother had a tendency to boil all vegetables to death. I learned that was the way she was taught from her mother so naturally that way was the norm. Broccoli, carrots, and summer squash were all boiled so that they were always limp and drained of the color that proved they were once alive. No cheese sauce on the planet would save these once proud members of the vegetable community. This process was repeated for years until I met my wife. My wife opened my eyes to the fact that veggies didn’t have to be boiled and flavorless. I can remember the day, March 17, 1988 to be exact, when she decided that she would cook for the both of us. She made a simple chicken dish but she also cooked broccoli as a veggie side. At first I was apprehensive, but I told her that I would always try something once just in case I liked it. I never knew that cooked broccoli...

...In this essay I will be stating all of the five food which are protein, fruits, grains, veggies, and dairy. These five food groups are important because they are more healthier than fast food from Mcdonalds or Burger King. To start out with is Protein. Protein isn’t just meat it includes poultry, beans, eggs, seeds, nuts, and processed soy products ( All about the Protein Foods Group"). The amount of protein recommended is in this chart. Some misconceptions about protein is that it is only meat or poultry, but there can be more to protein like eggs, beans, even processed soy products. Girls 9-13 years old should eat 5 ounces of protein and boys 9-13 years old should eat 5 to 6.5 ounces daily(How Much Food from the Protein Foods Group…). Some nutrients provided in protein products are sodium, fibers, and also fats....

...These veggies and citrus fruits add layers of flavor in addition to dry or liquid spices. Onions, garlic, celery, lemons, and sometimes oranges are commonly used to add more taste to the pot. Garlic lovers will fight for the tender cloves mixed in with the heaping mound of crawfish. Aside from the garlic, there usually aren't many grabbing for the cut lemons, onions, or other seasoning veggies. Leave it to a clever Cajun to throw some tasty lagniappe lying around the kitchen into the pot. With these additions, it is important to keep a mental timer going and have a general idea of how long they take to cook. Some veggies will take a little longer than the crawfish, while others will be ready soon after they hit the boiling water. Overcooked ingredients can turn to mush or disintegrate in the pot. Since the crawfish are the main ingredient, figure out how long you will be cooking them first, and use that time to gauge the other ingredients. Anything cooking longer than the crawfish should be added before, and anything requiring less time can be added after...

...this question: * Briefly discuss what you have learned about your protein intake. Does it exceed or fall short of recommendations? My protein intake exceeds the recommendations, i believe the reason that it exceeds is because i tend to eat a lot of meat, and drink protein shakes after my workout. 2. Use the Score Card on page 139 to estimate usual protein intake. * How much? 86 grams * Discuss the sources (plant or animal) of your protein. The main source of protein for me is animal.. I don't like eating veggies so i just tend to eat a lot of meats. 3. You do not have to become a vegetarian, but most people can improve their diet by including less animals and more plants. Choose 1 protein related goal and set a smart goal. Specific | To cut down on the meat protein and try to eat more veggies. | Measurable | To monitor the amount of veggies and meats per day. | Acceptable | To try to incorporate veggies with my meat. | Realistic | To start drinking a veggie shake. | Time-specific | Have my meat and veggie protein equal. | 4.

...This part of the reading will examine the CPU, Buses, Controllers, and Main Memory. Other sections will examine input devices, output devices, and secondary memory. The Central Processing Unit (CPU) Figure 2: The Central Processing Unit The computer does its primary work in a part of the machine we cannot see, a control center that converts data input to information output. This control center, called the central processing unit (CPU), is a highly complex, extensive set of electronic circuitry that executes stored program instructions. All computers, large and small, must have a central processing unit. As Figure 2 shows, the central processing unit consists of two parts: The control unit and the arithmetic/logic unit. Each part has a specific function. Before we discuss the control unit and the arithmetic/logic unit in detail, we need to consider data storage and its relationship to the central processing unit. Computers use two types of storage: Primary storage and secondary storage. The CPU interacts closely with primary storage, or main memory, referring to it for both instructions and data. For this reason this part of the reading will discuss memory in the context of the central processing unit. Technically, however, memory is not part of the CPU. Recall that a computer's memory holds data only temporarily, at the time the computer is executing a program. Secondary storage holds permanent or semi-permanent data on some external magnetic or optical medium...

...Kerry Chen Professor Leon Zhu T- Th 6 – 8 3235304880 Process Analysis and Capacity Management BUAD311- Operations Management Fall 2014 Due 6:00 pm on September 11 Q1 (15 points) At a make-to-order hamburger shop, there is one worker who cooks patties, two workers who assemble burgers, and one cashier. The oven can cook patties in 4 minutes and the oven can cook up to 20 patties at one time. Each burger assembler can assemble a burger in 40 seconds. It takes the cashier 6 seconds to collect payment. a) (5 points) What is the capacity of the hamburger restaurant in customers per minute?[1] What is the bottleneck? Oven – 20 patties every 4 minutes or 300 patties an hour Burger Assemblers – 2 burgers ever 40 seconds or 180 burgers per hour Cashier – 10 customers her minute or 600 customers per hour The capacity of the restaurant is 3 customers per minute or 180 customers per hour. The bottlenecks are the burger assemblers. b) (5 points) If two more burger assembler is hired, what is the capacity of the burger store? What is the bottleneck? Since two more assemblers are hired the restraunt is capable of producing 4 burgers over 40 seconds or 6 burgers per minute. In a span of an hour they can produce 360 burgers, so the new bottleneck would be the oven. Likewise, the capacity of the restaurant increases to 300 customers per hour. c) (5 points) Disregarding part b), if the restaurant buys another oven,[2] what is...
