...Fedt I chips Formål: At bestemme fedtindholdet i chips målt som masse % (100%*g fedt/g chips) Teori: Da både fedt og rensebenzin er polære, kan de blande sig med hinanden. Fedtet i chipsene bliver trukket ud af rensebenzinen. Når vi varmer det på pladen, bliver rensebenzinen til en gas form, hvorimod olien forbliver. Materialer: Fælles: Vægt, mortor, varmeplade Hvert hold: 50 ml måleglas 2x250 ml bægerglas 250 ml konisk kolbe Glastragt Glasuld Gummihandsker Glasspatel Alufolie Kemikalier Rensebenzin Chips Metoder: 1.

...as a proto-feminist, standing for women and their rights in a time where women were looked down upon. To begin, Hawthorne describes the prison and the scene around the scaffold in the center of town. Hester had been imprisoned for having adulterous relations with her Reverend, Arthur Dimmesdale, which led to the creation of a child, Hester's daughter Pearl. The town is waiting to see Hester and watch her as she stands on the scaffold for three hours while the town looks upon her, wearing a scarlet 'A' on her bosom as her punishment. The women of the town discuss the harsher punishments they would have given her, proclaiming that "this woman has brought shame upon us all" and declaring she "ought to die" (Hawthorne 49).When Hester exits the prison and a town beadle offers her help, "she repelled him, by an action marked with natural dignity and own free-will" (49). From the moment she steps out of the prison, Hester displays a free will and determination that will become a large part of her life. Despite the women's hostility towards Hester and the "heavy weight of a thousand unrelenting eyes," (53) Hester stands tall and strong on the scaffold. Her eyes gaze over the town members, and towards the back she notices one person: standing next to an Indian, a white man "clad in a strange disarray of civilized and savage costume" (56). Hester's mind suddenly makes a connection and realizes that this strange man is her husband, Roger Chillingworth, whom she had believed to be dead...

...Mother Courage and her Children (1939)(1) by German playwright Bertolt Brecht and Love in the time of Cholera (1985)(2) by Colombian author Gabriel Garcia Marquez explore the theme of obsession and its’ detrimental influence on human relationships. Whilst in the plays the protagonists’ obsession leads to the destruction of relationships with loved ones, in the novel a thwarted relationship leads the main character to develop dual unhealthy relationships with women. The first sees him obsessed with his lost first love and the second is a sexual addiction spanning more than 600 ‘conquests’. Whilst Mother Courage and Florentino are both driven by obsession, these vary in their focus. Mother Courage lives in the time of the Thirty Years war and runs her own cart selling wares to the armies to survive and support her children. This business and the pursuit of money becomes an obsession for her. On page 73, Scene 9 Mother Courage declares: “Sometimes I sees meself driving through hell with me cart selling brimstone, or across heaven with packed lunches for hungry souls. Give me my kids what’s left...” This line juxtaposes the images of heaven and hell and brings to the readers mind a well-used phrase that people use to emphasise their dedication to a task, ie “I’d drive through heaven or hell...”. Whilst it becomes apparent to the reader that Mother Courage is obsessed with making money from the war, in Love in the time of Cholera Florentino’s obsession is with...

...the presence of ignorance. The lack of self-respect can lead to an individual feeling unsatisfied with themselves and when this happens, they instinctively lower others in order to raise themselves up. This leads to ignorance as one does not empathise with someone that they have dehumanised, thus they cannot gain knowledge of the other person leading them to assume knowledge without evidence. Because of this, they cannot raise their children to become empathetic human beings, causing them to develop into ignorant and prejudicial beings themselves. The nature of prejudice and the factors affecting its existence are pervaded in Harper Lee’s novel ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’. Through the dual narration of Scout Finch and drawing inspiration from her own life, Lee allows for the reader to gain insight into the fatalities of a society steeped in prejudice. The absence of self-respect is destructive for both the individual lacking the quality and the people surrounding them. An individual not employing self-respect is unable to respect others and through this, prejudice can be created. This is demonstrated through Bob Ewell’s actions against Tom Robinson. In the court room when Mr Ewell is giving his testimony, he ‘stood and pointed his finger at Tom Robinson… “I seen that black nigger yonder ruttin’ on my Mayella!”’ This clearly shows that Mr Ewell does not respect himself, evident through the crude language that he uses in public. His body language shows that he does not respect Tom...

...QUESTION 1 Jean and her mother have formed an agreement which must meet the six prerequisites for a valid contract before we can determine if Jean can claim a breach of contract. (1. p291) From the information provided, I do not believe that there is a valid contract or that Jean can claim breach of contract. For a contract to be formed, it must meet all of the six prerequisites for a valid contract. The first requirement is ‘Intention to create legal relations’. As noted by Latimer, agreements between parents and children “do not usually give rise to contracts”. (1. p353, ¶5-520) For legal relations to be established, we would need to undertake an objective assessment regarding the agreement. If there is a precedent of Jean’s mother offering and paying money to Jean for completing work around the house or if Jean works in her own business as a Domestic Engineer, then this may be taken into consideration when determining the intentions of both parties. A reasonable person may accept that parents and children make exaggerated statements when trying to achieve a desired outcome – for example, a child may offer a parent $1M if they take them to the circus. Was the statement by Jean’s mother mere puffery? If it was determined that there was an intention to create legal relations, we would then need to ascertain if the remaining requirements have been met. The second is Agreement. There is clearly an agreement as there has been an offer and the offer was accepted. ...

... I asked her to think about her first ten years of life and to describe times that she can remember being cared for. She said that it was her grandmother that did most of the caretaking for her, especially when she was sick. She recalled one time when she had a really bad sinus infection that her grandmother helped her through. When I asked her if she could think of any time she was not very well cared for, the only time she could think of is when her father would come home bombed, which sparked some intense arguments in the family. She recalled feeling very lost during these times. Fun times in her childhood consisted of time with her family since she did not have any friends as a child. Specifically, she remembered having a lot of fun planting pumpkin seeds with her family. Trust vs. Mistrust: I asked her to describe her relationship with her parents. She said they were very close, and she went hunting with her father often. She got a lot of adult attention. She considered herself to be pretty self reliant and optimistic despite her loneliness. She feels that her seclusion from children her age was a big factor in developing her independence and self reliance. She was trustful of her parents and family, and trustful in herself to deal with most problems that arose in her life at that time. Autonomy vs. Shame/Doubt: Virginia reported to be fairly active, and she is. She runs a local community donation center and does a great deal of work for her church. She...

...Time Monitoring Reflection Kim Nguyen Grand Canyon University: UNV-501-TEM 105 July 2, 2014 Time Monitoring Reflection Monitoring ones own time is a challenging task if her day is extremely busy. Reflecting on Kim’s time monitoring sheet, it seems she need to adjust her work, learning and coursework time. She can do her daily activities more efficiently if she creates a deadline for her assignments. Keeping a consolidated schedule would benefit work efficiency. Having work and school time tied together can prevent her from completing her schoolwork early. Also, shifting her Facebook or movies break before bedtime would give her more times during the day to complete other work related tasks. Time wasted tasks Kim spends a large amount of time engaging herself on Facebook, watching movies, and at the gym. Facebook and watching movies would not help her academic growth because it is a social network that causes her to be distracted and lacks attention span. Hence, if she continues to engage herself on Facebook for so long she can reduce her academic writing skills. Similar to watching movies, she does not watch academic developmentally appropriate movies; therefore it does not foster her academic growth. Even in her Head Start job site, the children are only allowed to have a limited amount of time watching videos because their academic performances may be affected. As important, exercising at the gym. Although exercising can really be beneficial for her health she...

...Changes In Time Throughout Jane Austen’s novel, “Pride and Prejudice”, she uses time in many different ways. Though it is evident that the novel is set in the nineteenth century, it is obvious how it has retained it’s charm and appeal to readers through time. While retaining it’s value through it, time is used in a very different way in the novel. As one reads, characters are seen using their time wisely, wasting time, and killing time. Among all else, characters are exposed to long periods of waiting that people in modern times would not settle for, which clearly shows how times have changed. While reading Pride and Prejudice, most readers experience a nostalgic feeling throughout the novel. Yet, somehow, reader’s today still enjoy it just as much as the readers did back during it’s actual publication date in 1813 (Pride and Prejudice, By Jane Austen). The main reason it has retained it’s value through time is that it has so many similarities to times today. Take Elizabeth Bennett, Mr. Darcy and Mr. Wickham, for example. Although Mr. Darcy is the obvious victor of Elizabeth, there is a love triangle. Love triangles are one of the more conflict-causing aspects in the novel that are similar to today. Marriage is one thing that is, in a way, the same as it was back then. Conceptually, marriage has not changed since the 1800s. Somewhere deep down, regardless of how much it may be denied, every person longs to be able to find the love of their life--that person they...

...women. Oprah has had numerous articles, books, and magazines, dedicated to highlighting her success. Another article in the New York Times summing up Ms. Winfrey’s accomplishments is nothing less than typical. However, what is uncommon is to come across a writer such as gossip columnist Kitty Kelley, doing what no one dares to do and confronting the negative and practically silent aspects of Oprahs’s stardom. In Kitty Kelley’s Oprah biography, she provides her readers with a raw and insightful view contradicting The New York Times view on Oprah as an ultimate multimedia icon. Oprah Winfrey has set a silent standard to the way her fans and outside viewers perceive her, this standard being that you, do not question the queen of talk. The New York Times along with other newspapers and magazines would not dare contradict Oprah because in the eyes of the media she has the very two qualities we love as a nation, power, and money. The article in the New York Times states her accomplishments as her show “Oprah” is now soon to end, and what else is in her future. It is all apart of the typical praise that follows the headline “Oprah Winfrey”. As mentioned our nation loves money and power so it is by no surprise the opening sentence into the article states “Oprah Winfrey, the first black woman to appear on Forbes billionaire list” (New York Times). In one simple opening statement the New York Times states, all that needs to be said to highlight Oprah’s success as a billionaire and most...

...Introduction A rapidly increasing population in the United States is nothing new. There is nothing special about how often people are getting married and starting families. However, what is gaining popularity is how these families are able to care for one another. More often in today’s society, mothers, and sometimes fathers, are given greater opportunities to care for the newest editions of their families. Companies in the past 34 years have been required to grant new mothers time off, under the Pregnancy Discrimination Act, to recover from the stressful time of being pregnant, going through the process of giving birth, and of course, to take care of their newborn baby. Also, the Family Medical Leave Act of 1993 touches base on the fact that pregnant women are to be given time off – 12 weeks at least – of unpaid leave. The Pregnancy Discrimination Act of 1978, gives pregnant women the same rights as others with "medical conditions". This law applies to companies employing 15 or more people. It says: • Your employer cannot fire you because you are pregnant. • Your employer cannot force you to take mandatory maternity leave. • You must be granted the same health, disability, and sickness-leave benefits as any other employee who has a medical condition. • You must be given modified tasks; alternate assignments, disability leave, or leave without pay (depending on company policy). • You are allowed to work as long as you can perform your job. • You are guaranteed job security...

...It was a tiring and hectic job, which barely gave her time for herself let alone for her friends and family. She had gotten the job 6 months ago, after being promoted. She had worked really hard to secure the position. She had sacrificed on a portion of her pastimes and activities outside of the workplace. After 6 months of having her job, she had finally begun to manage her time a little better than earlier. She had realized that it would take her a good amount of time to get what she wanted in life; be content and happy while doing her job. Her new job made it hard for her to find happiness so soon. She knew that she could find happiness if she kept working at the firm but for that, she would have to manage her time better. At the start, after she got the job, she had to miss her best friend’s birthday party because her boss required her to stay back and go through some of the files and accounts of some very important clients. But last week, due to an improvement in her time management skills, she was able to attend her parents 40th wedding anniversary party. She missed only the first 25 minutes of the anniversary party. She would only be happy if she was able to take out proper time for her family and friends. So far, it seemed like a difficult...

...for work, appointments, family events, and even picking up and dropping her kids off to school. Ms. Asher says she would like to rid of this problem because it is causing problems. Her lateness has resulted in being reprimanded at work, criticized by her children’s school, and having to reschedule appointments. At times she states she can be 15 to 30 minutes late for anything. When it comes to family events, she could be even later than that. Classical conditioning could explain how Ms. Asher developed this condition. In classical conditioning there must be a stimulus that causes someone to respond in a specific way, we call this an unconditioned stimulus or US. The response to the US is called an unconditioned response or UR. I asker Ms. Asher to tell me a little about the last few years of her life when she thinks the chronic lateness may have started. She tells me about a previous job she had. She left this job about 2 years ago due to some complications with her employer and the lack of team work in the office. She really wanted to be at home with her children. She was always so stressed out from work she could hardly enjoy being at home. So she chose to leave and do just that, enjoy her kids. She states there was a large amount of work expected out of her with little help from the rest of the staff and her boss refused to change anything. One of the things that were required of her was that she was to open the office each day a half an hour earlier than...

...bed. When my daughter was a baby the only time she would sleep for more than a half hour at a time was in her own bed. As much as I loved having her close I felt her getting the proper rest was more important. This lasted until she was about 14 months old. When she started coming in and sleeping with us... After about six months of this her father and I decided it was time for her to go back to sleeping in her own bed. We had come to realize how important it was for us as individuals, and as a couple to have time for ourselves. With Hannah sleeping in her own bed we could have that time without taking away time spent with our daughter. It was one of the best decisions we made. Not only was our stress level greatly reduced, our relationship improved and Hannah learned a sense of pride and independence sleeping on her own. The other reason I believe children should sleep in their own bed is because of separation anxiety. Kids who sleep with their parents every night tend to have a harder time when mommy or daddy leave. It also makes it almost impossible for them to sleep unless they are sleeping with a parent. One example of this would be my step daughter who is 3 ½ yrs. old and has slept with her mom every night of her life. She had such bad separation anxiety that she was a year and a half old before we could take her for a full day without her crying nonstop for mom. Gradually we started to take her a few times a week, bringing her home after dinner. A little over a year...
