There are a variety of salads in their salad station: fruit, vegetable, and seafood. Their main meal is composed of chicken, pork, beef, and fish.

...The program I am going to talk about in this case report is the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) in the United States. A brief history about the Prescription Drug Monitoring Program, through 1989, nine Prescription Drug Monitoring Program has been established. Two were located in state Attorneys General offices (California 1939 and Pennsylvania, 1972); two departments of Public Safety (Hawaii, 1943 and Texas, 1981) one in Department of Substance Abuse Services (Illinois, 1961); one in a Board of Pharmacy; and one in a Department of Consumer Affairs, Bureau of Health Professions (Michigan, 1988). How PDMPs are organized and operated varies among states. Each state determines which agency houses the PDMP; which controlled substances must be reported; which types of dispensers are required to submit data (e.g., pharmacies); how often data are collected; who may access information in the PDMP database (e.g., prescribers, dispensers, or law enforcement); the circumstances under which the information may (or must) be accessed; and what enforcement mechanisms are in place for noncompliance. A lot of people die from overdose of drugs in the United States and from drug abuse, not only that but there a lot of non-medical drug use in the United States as well.

...Definition Formal Definition: A writing machine that produces characters which strike the paper through an inked ribbon. Details: Typewriter prints letters one at a time on a medium such as paper when the user presses keys on the keyboard. Before the advent of word processors and computers, the typewriter was the only way for people to produce printed text in an efficient and rapid manner, and typewriters in fact continue to be used in some offices today. To use the typewriter, the typist presses a key which activates a lever attached to the corresponding letter, number, or symbol. As the lever is pushed forward, it strikes a ribbon which is impregnated with ink, and then the paper, leaving an impression of the desired symbol behind. Example: Typewriter are divided into two general classes the Manual and Electronic typewriter. Comparison: Typewriters have a ribbon and carriage holding a roller, the front of the case holds the keyboard. When you type on a typewriter the carriage and ribbon move from left to right. While a computer, before you saved what you type is only for temporarily shown on the monitor you can still edit it when there’s an error.

...Problem-Solution Speech General Purpose: To Persuade and provide a solution Specific Purpose: To help my audience understand the amount of litter that is produced by cigarettes Thesis: Cigarette pollution is the worlds largest litter and it must be addressed. Introduction: 1. A man strolls casually down the street, looks around and takes one last puff from his Marlboro then he casually throws it in the direction of the nearest street drain. This is a situation we have all seen and maybe even performed. At best the cigarette lays there on the ground and a street sweeper may pick it up. However the more likely thing to happen is that he makes his shot in the drain or it soon rains and the water takes the cigarette but down the drain with it, it will follow the same path millions take every year. It flows underground and will eventually make it to out waterways. According to (www.cigarettelitter.org/) Globally, approximately 4.3 trillion cigarette butts are littered every year. Smokers in the USA account for over 250 billion cigarette butts, in the UK 200 tonnes of butts are discarded, and Australian smokers litter over 7 billion cigarette butts annually. In most Western countries cigarette butt litter accounts for around 50% of all litter. Cigarette butt litter is a major problem at our beaches, in the ocean and throughout the watersheds which carry water, trash and debris to our beaches. Cigarette butts discarded...
