...missing was compensated by the love and admiration her fans showered her with and what she claims made her the star that she was. Her combination of beauty, sexiness, intelligence and vulnerability is what made her legendary, who continues to inspire many till this day, however that is not all that she was. Marilyn was famous for acting, modeling, singing, etc. She certainly had the whole package. However the entire world was mesmerized by her because of her sexuality and charm. She posed nude for a calendar shot and appeared on the first issue of playboy. The promotion of those photos made Monroe a very popular star. Her fame enlarged when she won a golden globe for her performance in the movie “Some like it hot”. And what launched her as a sex symbol was her appearance in big roles like” gentlemen prefer blondes” and “how to marry a millionaire”. Her dumb character was used for comedic purposes in films; however she was not dumb at all. In fact people recall her being a perspicacious and shrewd business woman who took her craft very seriously. Unlike other contemporary celebrities she was not afraid to take risks. She was smart enough to strike a balance between satisfying her appetite without disappointing the public especially her fans. Trying to preserve an impeccable stain free reputation can be quite the challenge especially with factors that interfere with the process of verifying the soundness of this reputation. Marilyn was notorious for being a major sex...

...Some Like It Hot is set in 1929, located in the slums of Chicago. The city’s gloomy atmosphere is filled with gunshots and police cars, appearing as an intimidating gangster film. Despite the initial jarring humor Wilder’s films always go far beyond what most audiences typically expect. He easily transforms a crime film into a romantic comedy, just as he does so with two men physically and mentally changing into women. As the camera captures the new women it objectifies them by implying the focus of a man’s gaze. The gender-bending story is packed with schadenfreude, but only at the surface. Much of the humor derives from juxtaposition: two men with deep voices arguing while wearing dresses and the comparison between their masculine physiques...

...Buying a hot tub is a major investment, and you need to maintain that investment carefully. A hot tub that is properly maintained and well-cared for can provide many years of trouble-free service, but a neglected hot tub could fail in just a few years. Hot tub repairs can be rather expensive, but you can avoid many of those costs with a simple maintenance routine. Checking the water chemistry in your hot tub once a month and every time you add water is perhaps the best way to ensure trouble-free operation. Here are some additional maintenance tips to keep your hot tub running like new. Check the pH at least once a month. Low pH can cause a number of problems for hot tub owners, including costly issues like heater failure. Allowing the pH...

Nowadays, the kinds of Sichuan Hot pot appear in every city in China and it has changed to Sichuan Hot pot culture in every Chinese feinschmecker’s (eater) mind. What is Sichuan Hotpot? It is consisting of a simmering metal pot of stock at the center of the dining table. While the hot pot is kept simmering, ingredients are placed into the pot and are cooked at the table. Next I will conduct you to experience the look, the smell and the taste of Sichuan Hot pot. Firstly, the look of Sichuan Hot pot is very special.

...Comparison and Contrast Essay Hot and Cold Weather Comparisons Albert Weyant COMM/215 - Essentials of College Writing September 15, 2012 Dr. Nancy Reynolds Hot and Cold Weather Hot and cold climates will be discussed and the different comparisons between them. I will state my opinions and objectives pertaining to the two climates. The differences I will discuss are the climates, activities, and locations. Millions of people prefer to use the two different climates to accommodate themselves when the climates are in a comfortable temperature for them. Each year many lives are lost because of heat stroke and flu. The numbers are not very close. Four times as many people die from flu than heat stroke related deaths. Some prefer hot over cold and some, cold over hot. The differences between hot and cold are extreme. People have their own reasoning for the preferences. The first difference between Hot and Cold Weather are the climates The American Heritages, “the long-term prevalent weather conditions of an area, determined by latitude, position relative to oceans or continents, altitude, etc.,” describe climate.

...come in a host of flavors, used in a variety of ways, and can be found in just about everything we eat. Whether it is the hot chili peppers or the ground substance we use to flavor our dishes, their use has become synonymous with the food signature of cultures around the world. Though the words hot and spicy are often used interchangeably, they may not always refer to the same thing. Wherein spice is a general term that pertain to any dried seed, fruit, root, bark, or vegetable substance and is primarily used for flavoring, coloring or preserving food (Wikipedia, 2014). Heat, on the other hand, is a more specific term associated with the pepper variety and other fruits that contain the active ingredient capsaicin, which is measured in Scoville Heat Units (SHU), also known as the Scoville scale (eatmorechiles, 2014). But why do people eat hot spicy foods? Whether they enjoy a little zing or crave the full burning sensation whenever they indulge in a hot dish; the answer may lie in several cultural and biological reasons. Cultures around the world have long valued food as part of their heritage. They incorporated spices to mark their flavor, resembling the cultural diversity, and even corresponding to the type environment where it has originated to some extent. We also take a look at some of the health benefits associated with eating spicy foods. Some research indicates that eating spicy foods can lower your calorie intake and speed up your metabolism, resulting in more...

...Effects of Tourism on Hot Springs Residents COMM/215 July 14, 2014 Tourism in Hot Springs, Arkansas, over the years has slowly risen into a mass of pedestrians taking over the downtown area. There are tourists everywhere (easy to spot) taking pictures, jaywalking, visiting the bath houses, the hot springs and gathering drinking water from the springs, biker rallies, and many of the other touristic attractions available to them. Hot Springs is a beautiful area, and people from all over the state and the country come to visit. There are advertisements on the radio going into detail about the numerous things to do here that families will remember forever. Although tourism brings money into the city because there are a countless amount of activities that require money, or a parking fee, I feel as if tourism is gradually taking over hot springs, and making its residents feel overwhelmed. When tourists are out and about with their families, it is so easy to recognize them because they are either holding camera, dressed the same, wearing a shirt that says something to do with Hot Springs, or not using the pedestrian crosswalk. I have seen 2 instances of wrecks because of tourism. Tourism is not the primary cause for wrecks but here in this city, it happens. There are specified cross-walks for pedestrians, and if they see something they want to take a picture of, they run into the street (an entire family), otherwise known as jay walking, and people have had to stomp their breaks...

...A Coffee Story: Starbucks When customers are deciding where they want to buy their hot coffee, many different product attributes will be factored when making their decision. Product attributes may include different price points depending on the size of the hot coffee, and the quality of the coffee. The functionality of the hot coffee store with having a fast service is one attribute customers seek because many customers are buying on their way to work. Customers are looking for a combination of attributes to create a great value for the price. A recent study suggests that consumers purchasing decisions are made based on the perception of product value rather than price. “There is a price-value formula consumers use to calculate brand differences and to decide which brands to buy. Shopper consciousness has shifted from just trying to ferret out deals to looking for brands that provide value”. (Agriculture and Agri-foods Canada, 2010) The study also suggests that with created value, consumers will likely remain loyal to those hot coffee stores. For many hot coffee drinkers it is the quality of the hot coffee that they are looking for when making a purchasing decision. Customers are looking to the hot coffee chain that has their favorite blends or flavors to choose from. Innovations in the hot coffee market have created new customers to the market who wouldn’t normally consider coffee as their beverage of choice. “Products such as iced coffees have captured the interest...

...300°F or hotter. Baking or roasting in an oven is a dry heat method because it uses hot air to conduct the heat. Pan-searing a steak is considered dry-heat cooking because the heat transfer takes place through the hot metal of the pan. Note that the browning of food (including the process by which meat is browned, called the Maillard reaction) can only be achieved through dry-heat cooking. Examples of dry-heat methods include: * Roasting & Baking * Grilling & Broiling * Sautéing & Pan-Frying * Deep-Frying Moist Heat Cooking Moist heat cooking methods include any techniques that involve cooking with moisture — whether it's steam, water, stock, wine or some other liquid. Cooking temperatures are much lower, anywhere from 140°F to a maximum of 212°F, because water doesn't get any hotter than that. Examples of moist-heat cooking methods include: * Poaching, Simmering & Boiling * Steaming * Braising & Stewing Roasting & Baking Roasting and baking are forms of dry-heat cooking that use hot, dry air to cook food. Like other dry-heat cooking methods, roasting and baking brown the surface of the food, which in turn develops complex flavors and aromas. Both words describe a method of cooking an item by enveloping it in hot, dry air, generally inside an oven and at temperatures of at least 300°F and often much hotter. A convection oven, which circulates hot air throughout the oven, can enhance the browning reaction. Grilling & Broiling Grilling...

...related complaints 12 Conclusion 15 References 16 Appendix (Case: “The coffee spill heard round the world”) 17 Abstract The Stella Awards were inspired by the Stella Liebeck case in 1992. Stella purchases McDonald’s coffee from a drive through and later received US $ 640,000 for burning herself with this coffee. The lawsuit between Stella Liebeck and McDonald’s – a huge cooperation, was one of the most controversial court cases of its time. In this paper we defined the major ethical issues, analyzed who are the stakeholders and how the stakeholders influenced this case. Furthermore, we also mentioned other complain and lawsuits which McDonald’s had to face with before 2007, which means before and after Stella’s case. Finally, we have some references and comments form McDonalds in particularly. As well as general comments about how organizations and how they make final decisions in the future when they have business ethic problem, and how they protect themselves yet keep their customers happy. 1.

...noticeable that this is a Louisianan’s poem. Nearly all of Sheryl St. Germain’s poems represent Louisiana’s culture, but the piece that sticks out the most is Hot Sauce. Even though at first glance the poem Hot Sauce seems to be about hot sauce, upon further inspection there is an underlying theme within. The theme is that pain may eventually produce pleasure. The poem Hot Sauce reads as a free verse poem. There appears to be no rhyme scheme, nor any ordered length. It is arranged in chronological order in a sequence of events. Some images described in the poem are how repulsive and disgusting her mother’s eggs appeared with the hot sauce smothered all over them. In the reading, the taste of the hot sauce seems gruesome, but towards the end of the last stanza it seems to become bearable and even likeable. She compares the sticking out of her tongue, waiting for the hot sauce, to her memories of the priests at Communion. In the preceding sentence, the hot sauce is compared to the fiery gates of hell in Catholicism; this describes how unbearable the hot sauce is for her. Shakespeare said that there is nothing neither good nor bad, but thinking makes it so. In this case, the hot sauce represents the bad, but it is actually just her state of mind. This is proved in the conclusion of the poem when she begins to like the hot sauce. She changed her state of mind by finding joy in something that once repulsed her. Through this we see that pleasure can derive from pain. This...

...Sex & Doritos Doritos are really something out of this world if it attracts gorgeous girls every time you’re eating a bag of Doritos. Well that’s how they make it seem with most of their commercial. There are three commercials that have some sort of way off making you to think about sex. They always manage to involve a hot girl with a bag of Doritos being half naked. The first commercial is about a nerdy guy reading a book and eating Doritos. A hot girl with brunette hair is running past him but stops because she hears the sound of the Dorito crunch when he takes a bite. She walks back to him, and looks inside the bag but there’s no more Doritos. She looks up at the guy, and has some nacho cheese on the side of his lip. The girl licks him dry of the nacho cheese. It’s the morning after and the guy purposely took a bite of the Doritos when the girl was running by. The guy has put all the crumbs of the Doritos on his jeans knowing there is no more in the bag. The girl proceeds to him. This video makes me think that the guys going to receive oral sex from the way she’s walking toward him. I think it targets people that read, like to sit in parks, and guys that like girls who exercise. The second commercial is about a guy watching some football while eating Doritos. His girlfriend is next to him trying to get his attention but he’s not noticing her. The girlfriend takes a bag of Doritos to the room with her without the guy noticing. The guy finishes his bag of Doritos and...
