The Effect of Table Salt on Water Reaching 99⁰ C Abstract I had always been told that, when cooking, adding salt to water would make the water boil faster. Recently I had heard that this wasn’t true.

It seemed that we were meant to be together. When I was banned from the fire I said my goodbyes, never expecting to see her again. Much to my surprise, in the morning she

How can a short, chubby, shy black girl lead an entire team at a JROTC Drill Competition? Seven months later, and I still don’t have the answer to that question.

moved to the Savannah area for her first job at a local middle school. On Nov. 18, 2001, she returned from church and found things amiss, with her computer piled on a chair. Then a man stepped out from behind a door. “He looked like he wasn’t expecting me,” she testified during the June 2003 trial. He put his hand over her mouth and told her not to scream. He pushed her into her bedroom closet and told her to take off her clothes. He covered her head to shield her view. He put a knife to her
