...THE ASSESMENT OF THE ACCEPTABILITY OF ROSE ICE CREAM CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION Considering the vast food source of the country, the people are properly informed about the various available aromatic flowers particularly the native and popular flower like Rose, Sampaguita, etc… The Filipino are indeed very lucky because the Philippines is blessed with different kind of flowers that gives us medicine, food, perfume and other that provide our needs and that has been concerned people in our country. Rose ice cream is creamy, soft and velvety like fragrant bouquet of rose. Luscious summer with fresh rose petals. Ice cream (derived from earlier iced cream or cream ice) is a frozen food usually made from dairy products, such as milk and cream and often combined with fruits or other ingredients and flavors. Most varieties contain sugar, although some are made with other sweeteners. In some cases, artificial flavorings and colorings are used in addition to, or instead of, the natural ingredients. The mixture of chosen ingredients is stirred slowly while cooling, in order to incorporate air and to prevent large ice crystals from forming. The result is smoothly textured semi-solid foam that is malleable and can be scooped. (www. Wikipedia.com). No single person can lay claim to inventing ice cream. There is no exact origin or date of inception, but myths abound on how it came about. Its existence in olden times...

...PART ONE This paper will focus on two aspects of my life that I am very passionate about - my ongoing pursuit of higher education and my work in the humanitarian sector. I have focused on these two areas because becoming a superstar takes more than a diploma (White, 21). It requires the merger of knowledge and action. Abu Bakr, the first Muslim Caliph, is credited with saying “without knowledge, action is useless and knowledge without action is futile”. I believe that combining knowledge and action is a key element in achieving ‘Superstar’ status as described in Professor White’s book, The Superstar Roadmap: How Ordinary People Build Extraordinary Careers. In the following pages, I will relate personal experiences with Dr. White’s Superstar Roadmap and explore personal mastery of the nine steps. Deep inside, I have always felt an insatiable need for education. I have recognized its importance and have spent considerable time reading from the best books, attending formal courses, and informally seeking out dynamic authors and lecturers. In addition, I have always know that someday I would like to start a family and that I will need to be a good example to my children. One of many ways that I can demonstrate the importance of education to them is to be a living example of the principles I hope to teach them. The pursuance of education has not been easy for me and has often been inconvenient but when I listen to my heart and try to act on those feelings, I know that pursuing...

...Tell Me Your Dreams by Sidney Sheldon BOOK ONE CHAPTER ONE Someone was following her. She had read about stalkers, but they belonged in a different, violent world. She had no idea who it could be, who would want to harm her. She was trying desperately hard not to panic, but lately her sleep had been filled with unbearable nightmares, and she had awakened each morning with a feeling of impending doom. Perhaps it's all in my imagination, Ashley Patterson thought. I'm working too hard. I need a vacation. She turned to study herself in her bedroom mirror. She was looking at the image of a woman in her late twenties, neatly dressed, with patrician features, a slim figure and intelligent, anxious brown eyes. There was a quiet elegance about her, a subtle attractiveness. Her dark hair fell softly to her shoulders. I hate my looks, Ashley thought. I'm too thin. I must start eating more. She walked into the kitchen and began to fix breakfast, forcing her mind to forget about the frightening thing that was happening, and concentrating on preparing a fluffy omelette. She turned on the coffeemaker and put a slice of bread in the toaster. Ten minutes later, everything was ready. Ashley placed the dishes on the table and sat down. She picked up a fork, stared at the food for a moment, then shook her head in despair. Fear had taken away her appetite. This can't go on, she thought angrily. Whoever he is, I won't let him do this to me. I won't. Ashley glanced at her watch. It was time to leave...
