Even after adjusting for other factors linked to heart disease, diet-soda drinkers remained at 48% greater risk” (Hard). Annotation: This article was made by the Tufts University Health and Nutrition Letter which is a very popular place and well known by their studies of health, nutrition and other things related with people. The article was available and accessible in the HCC databases and was recently written on the year 2011.

...malnuwin@gmail.com. Abstract: Mobile robots are becoming a common sight nowadays. This paper expresses the design and simulation of a programmable mobile servant robot that can be built at a minimum cost. It has four wheels for movement. It is capable of moving forwards and backwards. It is able to serve food and drink to customers in the restaurant. Depends on the desire design of a mobile servant robot, it is used two DC motors for motion control. As the driving system of DC motors, L298 motor driver and microcontroller technology are used in the controller. For the design analysis of motor driving system, PIC16F887 is used and it was implemented by using Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique. The driving circuit for the robot is designed and it should be synchronized such that the locomotion of both wheels is executed simultaneously. The entire operation can be made closed loop with the help of feedback circuitry using incremental encoder. Keywords: DC Motor, Incremental Encoder, Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), Programmable Servant Robot. I. INTRODUCTION Servant robots are intelligent and helpful agents. They decrease the workload of human beings and directly improve human lifestyle. Currently, there are a lot of ways of serving to customers. For instance, waiter serving system (conventional), conveyor belt serving system (Japanese style), self-carrying system (fast food), pen-and-paper selfordering system, etc. These systems are made in...

...United States, and also some other countries. It is a world wide epidemic, and is causing damage to our bodies without us even realizing it. I found a lot of sufficient information to support my reasoning and how it could potentially be fixed. There are small changes that can be made to improve this issue, but it will never be back to the “normal” serving size again. I had some difficulty citing my in text citations, but I went back and fixed them. Also my works cited page was messed up, I couldn’t find all the information to create the citations but I did my best and I believe I did them right. Transitions were a big issue in my paper, from going to one paragraph topic to another. I went back and tried to make them connect to one another, they seem to all flow together but may still be a little rough. I believe this paper is an “A” or at least a “B” paper. I have a clear focus, and valid points with sufficient information to support my reasoning’s. The topic I chose is relatable to basically everyone which makes it more intriguing and easy to read. I went back though my paper and fixed all or most of my mistakes and followed the rubric instructions. I have lots of naysayers and used a lot of what we have learned in the “They Say I Say” book. I stay on topic throughout my paper about portion sizes, and the consequences it has on our bodies. Also, I fixed my transitions and in text citations in my paper which was a key factor in this paper. The Ugly Truth Are...

Included are an overview of the project, the rationale for choosing this topic, the design of this project, and the methods that will be used to conduct the research. This proposal also includes resources needed to complete this project, and an annotated bibliography that will be used as the core sources for the literature review I will write for the final paper. Overview and Purpose of the Research Project The role of women in combat has changed drastically over the years. Their inclusion in the military has increased followed by their involvement. However, the women are still limited in terms of what roles they are allowed to take. The general stigma against women depicts them as homemakers and their place in combat cannot exceed certain levels such as allowing them in the front line. There are other factors that have been linked to their limitation including their capacity to handle emotions, their need for extended leave when they get pregnant and their overall performance as compared to the men. People are constantly advocating for equal rights in men and women. In a bid to achieve that, women should be encouraged to uptake military positions...

... | Nicole Lange Topic Paper SPEA H316 April 4, 2011 The Effects of Methyl Mercury in Fish Living Organisms, such as Fish, have the capacity to methylate mercury compounds present in pollution. Mercury is most commonly found in industrial waste, mine tailings, agricultural drain water impoundments, and atmospheric disposition from electrical power. The effects of methyl mercury found in fish have more negative than positive effects on our diet and environment. With the growing pollution in our City Rivers and other areas mercury found in fish is becoming more of an anomaly. With many studies it has been proven that the effects of methyl mercury can be devastating in certain situations and in others has somewhat of a positive outcome, however the positives are not from in taking methyl mercury, the only benefits are from eating the proper servings suggested by the American Heart Association. With my research on whether you should cut back in consuming fish because of the contaminates they may carry have been based more on emotion than fact. However, I have found many useful facts that have left me with the conclusion that living aquatic organisms, such as fish, hold great nutrition when measured in appropriate servings for your diet. Even with the threat of methyl mercury in fish it still is a part of a healthy diet. Fish and other aquatic organisms are the major sources of healthful long-chain omega-3 fats and are also filled with other nutrients such as vitamin D...
