Egg hunt

This past semester, I worked with Big Brothers/Big Sisters of South Niagara over the Easter weekend for their annual Easter Egg Hunt. This is a charitable event that raises funds for the organization with the help of the City of Welland as well as the Welland firefighters, both volunteer and paid. Also, with the aid of many, many volunteers, the event almost always runs as planned. I have helped at this event for the past two years with friends. Both years, my friends and I have painted faces for a certain number of “tickets” that people can purchase, with all proceeds going to Big Brothers/Big Sisters. This year, my friend and I’s duty was to sit at an assigned table, take the tickets, and paint what the child chose from a sheet of pre-selected designs upon their faces. We also helped with the setup of the event itself, putting up tables and various signs and other things. This experience has been especially significant because I got to see the different ways that parents interact with their children, and vice versa. I…

Forty days after lent that day of the year arrived. Dying eggs, hours spent at church, and the sight of the beloved yet, creepy, Easter bunny. I found myself unwilling to get up for church that Easter Sunday knowing that soon after I would have to endure the horrible Easter egg hunt. As far back as I can recall I have been apart of the Easter egg hunt at my Grandmother Karll's house. Each of the twenty-five grandchildren fought for the chance to discover the golden egg. This unique egg contained…

others to fix especially when other teammates have already done their own share of work. While the issue is not fatal in an educational setting, it can be for a healthcare clinic or the success rate of a planned health awareness program. For example, if a front desk receptionist had promised to check all phone messages before leaving and ended up forgetting; the result could be fatal for a patient needing emergency help and at the same time a costly mistake for the clinic itself. A fatal result…

Our great country, the United States of America, has prospered for hundreds of years because it has been built upon principles of honesty, integrity, and a desire to better the greater good. How will our society continue to function if it is infiltrated with lies, deceit, and deception? I refer to the case of Hampton Creek, and their product “Just Mayo.” To the average consumer, this product may seem to be another brand of mayonnaise, when in fact it is not. This is misleading to consumers. The…

is allergic to egg, some children from Indian and Chinese backgrounds and also some who are perceived as fussy eaters. There have been multiple documents used in conjunction with the menu including Australian Dietary Guidelines, Victorian Healthy Eating Enterprise, and Caring for children. Using the information from various documents, has indeed created a menu that is fit to be…

too much mayo. Now, who is to blame in this scenario: the staff member who followed regulations or Corporate Management which set the amount of mayo to be mixed in with the tuna? If you guessed the former, then you are WRONG. I have worked in fast food and in the chaotic environment of a hospital. Both places taught me that staff members are not responsible for every little thing that goes wrong. While I know that they will NEVER admit it, the Powers That Be always have some blame. Another…

even move around. This is where efficiency comes in, the more animals under one roof equals the more profit a company gains. Not only do these animals have to live in an overcrowded population and feces filled area, they are harmed daily. Workers do not care about the conditions of the farm animals, so they are treated with neglect. These chickens, cows, turkeys, and pigs may be thrown around or handled abruptly. These animals go through cruelty and are given gruesome deaths. Some of the common…

FTIR Spectroscopic Study on Inner Membrane of Egg Shell of Chicken Gallus gallus domesticus Abstract: The paper presents FTIR analysis of inner membrane of eggshell of chicken Gallus gallus domesticus. Fresh samples of egg shells are cleaned; dried and inner membrane of the shell is separated carefully for FTIR analysis. FTIR spectrum reveals a series of bands related to fats and proteins. Calcium carbonate is the major constituent (about 90%) of the shell, but it is absent in the inner shell…

Making the Cajun delicacy Jambalaya is very complex. I get all required ingredients together, cook multiple types of meat, and assemble everything together to create my dish. The base of the dish is tomatoes, green peppers, white rice, and onions, I start with the very freshest ingredients that can be found. I minced up all of the base ingredients, and put them into a bowl so that the flavors can mingle together. Magnitudes of different types of meats can be used chicken, shrimp, pork, kielbasa,…

In a day and age of being an adult, it is easy to become side track and forget what it felt like to be a kid. For me, as well as revealing several transformative dimensions, Chicken Run (2000) was also a reminded of never losing sight of your visions and goals. After several planned attempts of trying to escape Tweedy’s Egg Farm, Ginger the main character, is placed in solitary confinement for trying to escape her semi-organized group to freedom. Even though all the chickens want to escape,…
