...to determine whether double dipping would spread more germs than only dipping once. Through experimental procedures researchers inoculated a sample of salsa onto agar plates that were either doubled dipped from a jar of salsa or were only single dipped from the same jar of salsa. After 48 hours of incubation the plates were examined to see whether the double dipped plate contained more growth compared to the single dipped plate. Examing the growth of the two resulted with the double dipped salsa showed to have double the amount of growth than the single dipped salsa. Introduction The very common social blunder, double dipping, is widely unaccepted to proper etiquette because it has been believed that this practice transfers saliva to a dip and causes a spread of germs. The purpose of this experiment is to evaluate whether there is truth to this theory. To test this theory the researchers used the zigzag inoculation technique to get isolated colonies after incubation. Zigzag inoculation is a technique that is exactly what the name is, a bacterial sample is streaked in a zigzag pattern on an agar plate. The nutrient agar plates are a general purpose medium that support growth of a wide range of non-fastidious organisms. Incubation is the process of growing a culture by supplying it with the necessary environmental conditions. With the use of nutrient agar plates and zigzag inoculation techniques the researchers aimed to test whether double dipping chips transferred more bacteria...

It's about special treatment that will continue to evolve and will be shaped according to guest feedback and individuals' preferences." Earlier this month, Friday's began surprising Give Me More Stripes members in participating U.S. restaurants with complimentary Friday's Chips and Dip (fresh, crispy golden crown potato chips sprinkled with a Parmesan Romano cheese blend and served with sides of green Chile sour cream sauce and Ranch dressing) or Hummus and Chips (a blend of chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice and roasted garlic and served with warm Friday's red and white tortilla chips). It is a while-supplies-last early thank you to its newest members. According to a recent survey1 conducted by Harris Interactive® on behalf of T.G.I. Friday's restaurants, nearly nine in ten (87%) of U.S. adults would find membership in a restaurant recognition or rewards program appealing. Of those adults, nearly eight in ten (79%) would find complimentary food/drink an appealing feature in a restaurant recognition and rewards program membership. "The beauty of this program is what's to come based on our continued research and more importantly, what our guests tell us they want. The T.G.I.

...The following case represents a realistic situation facing construction firm that has just won a competitive contract. The realistic conditions complicating the project are described in detail, as are the alternatives offered by the staff for dealing with these complexities. Case The Sharon Construction Corporation The Sharon Construction Corporation has been awarded a contract for the construction of a 20,000-seat stadium. The construction must start by February 15 and be completed within one year. A penalty clause of $15,000 per week of delay beyond February 15 of next year is written into the contract. Jim Brown, the president of the company, called a planning meeting. In the meeting he expressed great satisfaction at obtaining the contract and revealed that the company could net as much as $300,000 on the project. He was confident that the project could be completed on time with an allowance made for the usual delays anticipated in such a large project. Bonnie Green, the director of personnel, agreed that in a normal year only slight delays might develop due to a shortage of labor. However, she reminded the president that for such a large project, the company would have to use unionized employees and that the construction industry labor agreements were to expire on November 30. Past experience indicated a fifty-fifty chance of a strike. Jim Brown agreed that a strike might cause a problem. Unfortunately, there was no way to change the contract. He inquired about...

..."Hawaii" can be called a gay interest movie but calling it that, is doing a disservice to this little gem of a film The story starts with, Martin who falls on hard times and is more or less destitute. He looks for work in a neighborhood he used to frequent in his childhood as a handyman. He comes across Eugenio, a childhood friend who is currently occupying his uncle’s derelict property (later we come to know it’s also Eugenio’s childhood home) for the summer. While this premise sets the scene for vast amounts of sexual tension and scenes of two young twenty somethings getting sweaty in and around a charming but crumbling Argentinian home it also offers it’s audience a chance to reflect on the excitement of attraction, the pure laze and welcomed melancholy of long summer days, how nostalgia colors our need to be closer to someone from our past and how innocence in it’s purest form is something that needs to be celebrated. The initial scenes of Martin’s destitute life, are truly heart wrenching. Everything is shown subtly, there are no emotionally manipulative scenes here, no internal sorrow ridden monologues and no tears, despite the lack of all these tried and tested cinematic devices, the brilliant screenplay alone draws you in and makes you feel for Martin. It was hard to watch Martin take showers from public taps, and store the money he is given for his work as a handy man in a rusty tin he hides away in a patch of empty land in a suburb he calls his “home”.

I will need an extended period of laborious cogitation to assimilate the missive. This doesn't make any sense - bad statement. d. The number 2 is odd. Are we talking about an even number? I believe your confusion comes from the fact that 2 is a prime number, but it is still even. It is the only even number that is prime – false statement. e. If you believe in evolution, then your ancestors were filthy apes. There are two kinds of people in the world: - one is god prayer and the next is science believer. If you support the statement from the point of scientific theory of evolution by Darwin, then yes our ancestors are filthy apes, whereas if you think form the side of god’s prayer then the statement is false – good statement. f.

...receives it. And also some other facts which should be considered like life expectancy, importance, age etc. when deciding on whom to donate the heart to. He’s cause for damage to the heart was the steroids, of which he was unaware of the consequences of taking the steroids at the time he took so there wasn’t any sort of health irresponsibility known otherwise. His chances to live 10-15 more years are very high so it’s one point investing in him. He has a family to take care of, wife and the 3 kids who he has to support till they are on their feet and so forth. He also has been a good supporting father as he’s already being supporting their dreams career wise and the future. So my first choice with all confidence would be Jerry. The number 2 choice is Ozzie because as LONG as he does not get back on his old ways HE does hold out some hope on society as a whole as long he does NOT revert back and does good in society by helping out and he no longer does any drugs - he really can have a useful and a prosperous and productive life. His chances of living after a successful heart transplant are another 10 years but only if he stays off the drugs and which is not really guaranteed but if he does he can be a very good mentor and a coach or a guidance for teens with troubled life as they are on drugs already. Since Ozzie have seen the side effects and losses because of the drugs, he can let the teens know it too and...

Abraham Lincoln “The virtue of justice consists in moderation, as regulated by wisdom”. Aristotle ”Nobody gets justice. People only get good luck or bad luck”. Orson Welles Justice = mid-12c., "the exercise of authority in vindication of right by assigning reward or punishment;" also "quality of being fair and just," from Old French justice "justice, legal rights, jurisdiction" (11c.), from Latin iustitia "righteousness, equity," from iustus "upright, just" . The Old French word had widespread senses, including "uprightness, equity, vindication of right, court of justice, judge." The word began to be used in English c.1200 as a title for a judicial officer. Meaning "right order, equity" is late 14c. Justice of the peace first attested early 14c. In the Mercian hymns, Latin iustitia is glossed by Old English rehtwisnisse. To do justice to (someone or something) "render fully and fairly showing due appreciation" is from 1670s.

...Week 2 Learning Team A Paper Parts 4 & 5 Levels of Measurement for Each Variable in the Study In the survey that Debbie Horner, the Human Resource manager, distributed to the company, there are different levels of data available for analysis. The question seeking information about the respondent’s gender is a nominal-level question. “The nominal level of measurement observations of a qualitative variable can only be classified and counted” (Lind, Marchal, & Wathen, p. 10, 2011). For analytical purposes the order in which the data is displayed makes no difference. The question regarding the division of work for the respondent, and the question regarding if the respondent is a member of management or supervision is also nominal. Also, the question pertaining to length is service is nominal because it only seeks one answer. The ten questions relating to how each respondent feels is interval-level data. The ten questions ask each respondent to rate his or her individual feelings on a scale of one to five. One is considered very negative and five is considered very positive. This is known as a Likert Scale. The Likert Scale is the most popular form of survey data collection because it is easy to assemble, the scale is more reliable, and produce more interval-level data (Cooper & Schindler, 2011).

...1 www.oldwitchcraft.com 2 www.oldwitchcraft.com 3 INTRODUCTION The science of numerology can be traced back thousands of years. The Chinese, Japanese, Greek, Hebrews, Egyptians, Phoenicians, early Christians, Mayans, and Incas all used some form of numerology to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the universe. Numerology is perhaps the easiest of the occult arts to understand and use. All you need is the birth date and the complete name of an individual to unlock all of the secrets that the numbers hold. (Most authorities agree that the full birth name as recorded on your birth certificate is the name that must be used for all calculations involving name.) There are eleven numbers used in constructing Numerology charts. These numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 11, and 22. Larger numbers that occur from adding the numbers in the complete birth date or from the values assigned to each name are reduced by adding the digits together until the sum achieved is one of the core numbers. Merely add the components of the larger number together (repeatedly, if necessary) until a single digit (or the "master" numbers 11 or 22) results. Each of these numbers represents different characteristics and expressions. Master numbers are the only exception to rule of reducing to the single digit. The master numbers 11 and 22 are intensified versions of the single digit number they replace (2 and 4). These numbers suggest a potential for a high degree of learning and/or achievement...
