...four and you eat only farm fresh eggs? Number of chickens needed. If we are a family of four and consume an average of 10 dozen eggs per month, means that we will need our chickens to produce 120 eggs per month. Eggs needed monthly: A dozen = 12 eggs. So, 12 eggs times 10 dozen = 120 eggs. Eggs needed per week: We will need to find the number of eggs we consume per week. 120 eggs divided by four weeks in a month, gives us the total of eggs needed per week. 120 ÷ 4 = 30 eggs needed per week (Almost 3 dozen eggs per week; more specifically 2 ½ dozen eggs). After doing the calculations my partner and I discovered that we were going to need six chickens; five hens and one rooster. The breed of the chickens we decided upon are the Rhode Island Red hens. We decided on the Rhode Island Reds because they are noted for their brown and delicious eggs. They can end up producing up to 200 eggs a year and a healthier one can lay even more. Healthy hens lay up to 6-7 eggs per week depending on their care and treatment. Additionally, Rhode Island Red hens lay many more eggs than an average hen if provided with plenty of quality feed. Looking at the information we have gathered we will need: 30 eggs per week, thus 5 hens will be sufficient to cover that quantity. 7 eggs times 5 hens will give us the amount of eggs that we are going to have per week. Thus 7 ×5 = 35 eggs per week. And 4 weeks (one month) × 35 eggs will give us 140 eggs per month. This means that our...

...controversial question. For decades, the dairy industry has focused its efforts and money on marketing in order to convince people that dairy products are necessary for a normal functioning of the body. The real truth behind this controversy is that not only that these products are not necessary, but we do not need them at all. Human beings are the only mammals in the world that continue drinking milk when they grow up. The myth relating to the claim that we need milk because of its calcium content is one of the more important reasons why we continue drinking milk throughout our lives. But the truth is quite the opposite: when we drink milk, the body loses calcium because the milk is more acid and...

...Physics Presentation - Egg in a Bottle Title of Experiment: Egg in a Bottle Physics Theory: Air Pressure Materials: Hard-boiled egg without shell Glass bottle with opening slightly smaller than the diameter of the egg Piece of paper Matches for fire Procedure: 1. Put the bottle on the table and light the piece of paper on fire with the match 2. Drop the lit paper in the bottle to fall at the bottom of the glass bottle 3. Set the egg on top of the bottle with small side pointed downward 4. Observe what occurs Results: 1. The egg sat on top of the bottle slightly wiggling while the fire burned. 2. The egg blocked any more air getting into the bottle resulting in the fire going out. 3. When the fire extinguished the egg was rapidly sucked into the bottle and drops to the bottom. Conclusion: 1. The pressure of the air inside and outside of the bottle is the same before the experiment began. Therefore the only force that would cause the egg to enter the bottle is gravity and the diameter is too small for just that force to work. 2. According to Gay-Lussac's law, the pressure of a gas of fixed mass and fixed volume is directly proportional to the gas's temperature. When we changed the temperature of the air inside the bottle, we changed the pressure of the air inside the bottle because the volume of air is constant therefore the pressure increased. 3. Heated air expands and tries to escape so when the fire...

One of the latest to hit our shores is the obsession over any dish with salted egg yolk sauce. Sweet or savoury, the salted egg flavour seems to pair well with everything, and everyone wants to take an Instavideo of these dishes singing "let it flow, let it flow" A salted duck egg is a Chinese preserved food product made by soaking duck eggs in brine, or packing each egg in damp, salted charcoal. In Asian supermarkets, these eggs are sometimes sold covered in a thick layer of salted charcoal paste. The eggs may also be sold with the salted paste removed, wrapped in plastic, and...

...Between the two articles that I read I was more inspired by the article "Advice That Adds Insight to Injury". Although the other article was also good it seemed to be more driven towards promoting the program rather than the other article which was more based on advice. If I could enter into a program right now I would enter into the Porwer Engineering Course at the college although a vast majority of my experience is within plumbing. Plumbing is not the trade I would like to do the rest of my life. I am far more interested in Power Engineering for many reasons, I've always been more interested in fields related to electricians and Power Engineering is one of the highest positions in that field of work that you can go into. Rather than just dealing for residential electricity a Power Engineer deals with generators in hospitals, mines, ect.. I'm also more interested in Power Engineering because of the amount of money I can make and also the fact the there's not as much physical labour involved, which means I can do it for a long time with a lower risk of injuring myself.

...INTRODUCTION Recently prices of chicken’s egg have rose in a higher rate rather than other grocery items in the kitchen market. Although prices of every commodity items in our country is increasing day by day, but the prices of chicken is increasing dramatically. Because of this change in price, general people are not able to fulfill their demand of egg with their income level. So people are facing a big problem. And now it has become a common phenomenon in our grocery market. In our country, egg is a source of protein of the general people. And now which is out of their reach. So people are very disappointed about this. For this reason, we are also curious about the market situation why this happening and what is the reason behind of it. There are many reasons behind of it. General people are saying something, traders are saying different things. General people are thinking that because of the bird flu issue, egg sellers are taking benefit and hiking price in term of their own business. On the other hand, traders said a short supply of poultry products in the markets due to attacks of bird flu and sharp fall in production in recent weeks contributed to price hike. Poultry farmers claimed that continuous attack of bird flu virus on broiler chicken reduced production of poultry items including eggs in recent weeks. A large number of poultry farms were shut down following the outbreak of bird flu. They also said that production cost of poultry items had also shot up due to the...

...Science Project: Air Pressure (Egg in a Bottle) Introduction Atmospheric pressure is the force that acts on any object by the weight of tiny air molecules. Molecules in the air are invisible but they still have weight and they occupy space. Air Pressure changes with the change in the altitude. As the altitude increases the Air Pressure decreases and the altitude decreases Air Pressure increases. At an higher altitudes we have to breathe more often than at the sea level. If you are on Mt Evans then your ears pop to maintain the pressure. This happens because we have to maintain the outside and inside pressure. Our weather patterns change because of the air pressure. Figure – 1 – Shows the air pressure based on the altitude Figure – 2 – Graph shows Pressure vs Altitude Objective There are various experiments that can be conducted to show Air Pressue. Let us do an Egg in a bottle experiment to show Air Pressure. Doing this experiment we will develop the hypothesis on the effects of air pressure on the egg and how it squeezes it into the bottle. Experiment: Egg in a bottle Things or items required to perform egg in a bottle: 1. Eggs 2. Saucepan and stove to boil the eggs. 3. Wide-mouth bottle and bottle mouth should be smaller than the boiled egg. 4. Vegetable oil. 5. Matches 6.

...Catlin Naked Egg As everyone knows, eggs have shells that we must remove before eating. If we put eggs into vinegar, however, the vinegar will do the work of removing the shell for us. The vinegar will dissolve the eggshell. This happens because vinegar contains an acid called acetic acid, which reacts with the high calcium content of the eggshell. It takes three or four days for the shell to dissolve completely, and we must wait until all the shell is gone before trying to bounce the egg. All we need to do is put some raw chicken eggs into clear, plastic cups. This allows we to watch the reaction as it occurs. Completely cover each egg with vinegar, and let them sit in a place where they don't have to be moved. Check the eggs now and then over the next four days, noticing any changes that we see in the shells. After four days, very carefully, using plastic spoons, remove the eggs from the cups and lay them onto a couple layers of paper towels in order to drain. We'll notice a waxy looking coating on the eggs, but no more shell. Starting at about 2 inches high, drop an egg onto a tabletop or other surface, and watch it bounce. Working in increments of 1 inch, drop the egg from increasing elevations, having our friends do the same if we conducted this experiment with others. Whoever has the egg that survives a drop from the highest height, wins. I was researching topics for science fair. Suddenly, I came out an idea in my mind was my science teacher told us that we could make the...

...animal models to customers in over 15 countries worldwide. The senior vice president of corporate development Dennis Shaughnessy was to present a joint venture proposal to the board of directors to invest up to two million dollars in a small family owned company called ALPES that was the producer of state-of-the-art specific pathogen free (SFP) eggs in Mexico which can further help the company to achieve its long term strategic growth and also grow its existing businesses. Key Issue 2.1 PESTEL Political. Since the North American Free Trade Agreement allowed the free flow of goods and services in North America; it would have a positive effect on CRL and ALPES because the effect of political restriction can increase Mexico’s production in order to supply the U.S. and Canada. Meanwhile, ALPES will have more opportunity to gain more resources in other countries and also meet the increasing demand by increasing production. Economic. The joint venture is located in Mexico, where there is an uncertain and unstable market. The risk may influence the decision of the joint venture. In addition, although the industry has an excess demand of SPF eggs in the market, it would be affected by the economic slowdown. Social. Due to the industry mainly supporting research and development of pharmaceuticals and vaccines, there is a problem with pathogens carried by unvaccinated poultry because contaminated poultry increases human health risk (APLES S.A.,...

...Water Density Experiment: Why Does an Egg Float in Saltwater? Abstract The purpose of my experiment is to find out if an object, which would normally sink in tap water, would float when the water density is increased. The object I chose for my experiment is a raw egg. In the experiment, I changed the density of the tap water until I could make an egg float. The simplest way to change the density of water is by dissolving salt in it. I concluded that dissolving 4 teaspoons of salt in 250 milliliters of water is sufficient to float a raw egg. Introduction The goal of my experiment was to test the hypothesis whether adding salt to regular tap water could increase water density enough to make an object to float. The water density concept states that in order for an object to float in the liquid, the density of an object must be less than that of the liquid. According to Charles Ophardt, Elmhurst College (2003), density is defined as a ratio of a material’s mass divided by its volume. The density of tap water is known to be one gram per milliliter. In my experiment, I will demonstrate changing the density of water by dissolving various amounts of salt crystals into 250 ml of tap water until the egg floats. Materials Needed In my experiment, I used the following materials: * 5 clear 400 milliliter containers * 300 milliliters measuring cup * Tap water 250 milliliters per container * 5 raw eggs * Morton iodized salt * 1 tea spoon ...

...viewer/reader. Firstly we ask ourselves what Yeazell means by ‘Dutch Painting’, which turns out to refer, as a blanket term, 17th century Genre painting. What is concerned in 17th century Dutch Genre painting, is that it concerns itself with the depiction of the every-day domestic scenes, considered to be ‘low-genre’ rather than ‘high genre’, (‘high-genre’ can be thought of as painting depicting classical scenes from antiquity for example). The principal of genre paintings, which became associated with Dutch Paintings, is the depiction of ‘scenes or events from everyday life, such as markets, domestic settings, interiors, parties, inn scenes, and street scenes’. Yeazell makes use of quotes from Walter Scott during the 19th Century where he too uses the analogy of the Novel being akin to Dutch Painting. When speaking of Daniel Defoe, 'whose fictions were more equivocally praised for the resemblance' (p.4) of reality than the actual plot line itself, we can begin to see what Yeazell is referring to. She opens the article by quoting Walter Scott and his reaction to Austen’s Emma (1816) and stated that the novel has "something of the merits of the Flemish school of painting. The subjects are not often elegant and certainly never grand; but they are finished up to nature, and with a precision which delights the reader"' (p.1) The precision of description is depicting the subjects does indeed delight us, and it is because the ‘subjects are not elegant’ that we find ourselves being...

...been a symbol of hope for children and families in the need. As one of the world’s premier pediatric cancer research centers, St. Jude hospital continues to provide the quality of research and treatment relying on the support of many donors to continue its lifesaving mission of finding cures and saving children. Organizational Pattern: Monroe’s Motivated Sequence. Introduction (Attention) I. Attention-Getting Device—Eggs dynamic: Draw faces on 4 eggs to make 4 members of the audience figure that those eggs were their children. Then, paint a mark on two of those eggs to show in one of them that the stain represented cancer and we didn’t know what caused it; the mark on the second egg would try to illustrate that we can try to remove the mark (or resolve the problem with cancer) ourselves but we are not able because it is not in our capacity and that would bring us to the breaking of the third egg that would represent that sometimes when we try to resolve so serious problems ourselves such as cancer we would only make it worse. II. Introduce Your Topic—The topic of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is introduced in connection with the eggs dynamic by stating to the audience that this hospital based on its research and treatment does know how to help in childhood cancer cases. III. Demonstrating the Importance—If we all did something to help those in need like children with different types of cancer, we would have the satisfaction of helping innocent children...
