Discussion
The information is takend from result showed that most of people start smoking because of peer pressure, it is difference from article’s information, which is pointed out that the main reason make people start smoke is because of their parent and sibling who smokes. Moreover, there are the lowest percentages of people start smoking by family influence while article’s research is the highest. In my opinion, i totally agree with information from the result is taken from surveymonkey.com, because teenages will tend to do what they feel strange and want to do the different things that they havenot done before, so they will try to smoke if they curiosity. Furthemore, when they feel pressure, they lost control themself then try to do something they havenot done before to feel fun, but the reseach showed that when people start smoking, it will very quickly make people become addicted to the nicotine in tobacco, so they are addict of cigarettes and that is the reason a lot of people still smoking (75%)

Han V. Roman Empire

...Confucius’ teachings while the Romans were selfish towards the people. The Romans and Han had a huge thing in common which was that they felt superior to the rest of the world. These two empires had many similarities but the way they viewed things was different. A thing that was very vital to both empires was water because without it they probably would have not been the empires that they were. The Romans had aqueducts, which benefitted any landowners, and they were very proud of according to Frontinus who said “The abundance of water is sufficient not only for public and private uses and applications but truly even for pleasure”. According to Huan Tan the Han used the water to make inventions because he said, “Water power was also applied (pestle and mortar)”. Although they both used water to build inventions the Romans built their inventions on a large scale while the Han built theirs on a small scale. The Han treated the lower class with respect while the Romans were very selfish and did not really care about the lower class. The reason the Han respected the lower class was because they followed Confucius’ teachings and He once said “The government is to the people as the father is to the son”. The Romans on the other hand were very selfish and Cicero said, “Vulgar and unbecoming to a gentleman are all the jobs hired workers take on” right here he...

The Kumeyaay People of California

...THE KUMEYAAY PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA by Your Name (boldface) ANTH 100: Non-Western Cultures and the Western Tradition Instructor: Dr. Steven R. James Nov. 10, 2014 INTRODUCTION In my quest to study the life of the ancient California inhabitants, I visited the San Diego Museum of Man which is an anthropological museum situated in Balboa Park, San Diego, California. The museum was established in the year 1915 as a result of the Panama-California Exposition where several exhibits were displayed with ‘The Story of Man through Ages’ being the first. At the culmination of the exposition, San Diego Museum Association sought to retain the available collection and start a permanent museum. As a result, the collection was named Museum of Man in 1942 and later in 1978 as the California Museum of Man. Besides housing the history of the Kumeyaay people, who are the subject of this research paper, the history of other Native Americans from the South of California can also be studied in this place. The museum has a population of over 100000 ethnographic items, 25000 images, and a large library of books and journals. MUSEUM EXHIBIT 1) Artifact Display On the second floor of the museum, a wide variety of the historic sources can be found. Among the displayed artifacts there are models of the early man, reconstructions of the bones of hominids, cave paintings, coffins of mummies from ancient Egypt, stone carvings, and remains of the Egyptian mummy known as Lemon Grove.

Method Weigh silica crucible and record weight prior to experiment. Grind over 5g of food sample in pestle and mortar and measure 5g of ground sample into the crucible. (W0) Place the dish in a baking oven for 24hrs to dry out the sample. Reweigh the sample in silica crucible, This is now the true weight of the sample (W1) Set up the bunsen burner on top of the heatproof mat with tripod and clay pipe triangle above to support the crucible. Ignite the bunsen burner and begin to heat the sample slowly ensuring the sample does not set on fire as this will result in a loss of material to the atmosphere in the form of particles. The sample should turn black. Once the sample reaches roughly 100°C continue to heat to 500°C until the sample turns white. Allow sample to cool to room temperature in a dessicator. Weigh the finished sample (W2) Calculate the ash content (X): (W2-W0)/(W1/W0)x100=X Materials: Silica dish Baking Oven Bunsen Burner Matches Tripod Clay pipe triangle Heat proof mat Measuring scales (accurate to 3 decimal points) Pestle and mortar 6g Food sample Results W0=13.134 W1=18.135 W2=13.595 (13.595-13.134)/(18.135-13.134)x100=9.218% Total ash content = 9.218% Ash content stated on packet = 7% Discussion The results show that the ash content is higher than that of the content...

Mortars and Pestles

...and Pestles Are Everywhere Mortars and pestles can be used for so many things. In what I have read they are essential tools in the world of pharmacy. Mixing and breaking down medications to get the right compound then and now, I know from experience the necessity of this tool. My grandmother for as long as I could remember, in my culture is what we call a Suruhana. Suruhana in our culture is a native witch doctor who practices through herbs, prayer, and the belief in our ancestor's spirits. Growing up and spending alot of time with her gave me a view on medicine in a whole new way. I feared going to the hospital and preferred the bitter herbal medicine she would grind and stir up. Chamorro is my ethnicity and like every culture most of today is based on our past and our ancestors. We believe that Taotaomonas (our ancestors) live forever with us and in the jungles of Guam. Being a Suruhana is believed to be a great gift and is usually passed down to a child who is the most healthy to ensure that the gift is practiced for a long time. Mixing medicine is not the only task of a Suruhana, there are many more things the can do depending on how much the Suruhana passes down. It also takes many years to learn the gift. Watching my grandmother prepare the medicine was always intriguing. She never did tell me what the bowl and stick was that she used to mix her medicine. The only difference from the common mortar and pestle was she wrapped a cloth at the end of the pestle to strain...
