Eleven Minutes

Rachael got her “30 Minute Meals” show on Food Network and it was seen all over the country. On her show, she developed catchphrases like her most popular one, “E-V-O-O”, which stands do “extra-virgin olive oil”. The Oxford American College Dictionary actually made EVOO an official term. She is also known for not using proper measurements and instead, using measurements like, “half a palmful”. Rachael Ray has hosted 27 seasons of “30 Minute Meals” on Food Network. The show started…

Celebrities today are constantly seen on the news, in the tabloids, or even on social media websites. We as a culture focus on them and analyze every single move they make. Their lives are no longer private, but instead blasted everywhere for everyone to see. Ty Burr brings up the excellent question of why do we obsess over these human beings; why do we portray them in a Godly light? We as a society look to these people, not because of who they are, but rather what they have and the distraction…

The Type Racer Showing your true talents at school is a great feeling. When showing your talents you always want to show your skills as good as possible. I believe everyone has a talent that they have practiced to master or they were good at it since the first day one. I have a talent that I was horrible at when I started at, But then I gave it my best to improve and I succeeded more than I thought I would, I has passed the typing speed I thought I would never get. My goal when I was a…

Briefly (2-3 sentences) summarize the pattern in your results. Did you follow the expected pattern? If not, why do you think that is so? The pattern I noticed during the practice trial 1 was to go through and say the colors of the words which was simple and quick. The second Stroop trial was harder because I was focusing more on the word instead of focusing on the color of the word which made it more difficult to process. I followed the expected pattern and on the second phase and it was a…

Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate if there is a cognitive process delay in different conditions: naming, neutral, congruent, and incongruent. One hundred and thirty-nine from Florida Atlantic University from Boca Raton, Florida participated in classroom setting experiment. The independent variable was the level of congruence in number/symbol lists; the dependent variable was the reaction time (in seconds).

Angry Men by Reginald Rose is an example of what happens in a jury. I think Rose’s purpose of writing this is to entertain us, the readers and I also believe he was once in the jury himself and he wanted to show his experience. In Rose 1 they voted eleven to one NO.8 voted not guilty and the others voted guilty. Instead of jumping to conclusions like the others he actually wants to go over the facts and talk it out to come to a reasonable conclusion. NO.8 did not have a good reason to say not…

Concealed Handguns Did you know that every year guns are used almost 2.5 million times to protect someone, about 6,850 times a day? That means that guns are used almost 80 times more often to protect the lives of innocents, than to take them. So obviously, adults should be able to carry concealed handguns. Responsible citizens need to arm themselves against criminals with guns, most adults who carry concealed handguns are law-abiding, and having a concealed handgun can protect people who…

Section A: Listen, transcribe and summarize Hello friends. I am Suzanne Collins the author of The Hunger Games. I am going to read you from chapter eleven, where the games begin. Chapter eleven: Sixty seconds. That is how long we are required to stand on our metal circles before the sound of a gun releases us. Step off before the minute is up, and land mines blow your legs off. Sixty seconds to take in the ring of tributes all equidistant from the cornucopia, a giant golden horn shaped like a…

through the scary closet! This opening act was about 3 minutes long, and if you had a regular pass you would not see this part. So I just told you a little secret about the secret room…shhhhh! Two things we didn’t get to do, which I am super bummed about, was Special Ops INFECTED and Elvira’s Asylum show! The Special Ops INFECTED is a new interactive maze where you shoot zombies with a lazar gun. I was told you get to do this for about 30 minutes; that probably explained the hour+ wait. We…

“Beep Beep Beep” It is 5 am and my hand can’t make it to the alarm clock before the voices in my head start telling me that it is too early and too dark to get up. But I did not ask for their opinion, I rise like a phoenix and before I know it, I am drenched in sweat and walking out an empty gym in route to the soccer field. Why you ask because I was told I was not good enough, too uncoordinated, and too tall to play soccer and I was on a mission to prove them wrong. There was a month left…
