was no corn on board the Nina‚ Pinta or Santa Maria. Before 1492‚ no one living in Europe ate corn cakes‚ corn bread or corn pudding. They didn’t know corn existed. Up to this time‚ corn grew only in the Americas. Scientists believe corn was originally cultivated by Indians in the highlands of Mexico thousands of years ago. The Indians discovered that corn was good to eat and very nutritious. As Indian groups migrated north they brought corn with them. American Indians were growing corn in many

treatment with radiation I am for the use of radiation because it can be used in many good ways. My sub group is medicine. I am researching a radiation treatment used for helping cancer patients. This is a good use of radiation because it kills the cancer cells and may even cure the cancer. It doesn’t always cure it but it will slow the process down. One reason radiation therapy is used‚ is to destroy the cancer cells. It is also for shrinking tumors. Tumors are mostly cured by the radiation. It can also

and let’s not forget that India was a completely untapped market and had a huge potential for growth. Kellogg’s decided to invest US $65 million in India in 1994 three years after the international trade barriers were lifted. They used this to launch Corn Flakes as its number one brand. It was estimated that even if Kellogg’s grabbed two percent of the market share available it would result to 18 million consumers and this would make it the largest market above the entire US.

In the engineering sciences‚ heat transfer includes the processes of thermal radiation‚ convection‚ and sometimes mass transfer and often more than one of these processes occurs in a given situation.Shaun Prado 8F Shaun Prado 8F Steady-state conduction Steady state conduction is the form of conduction.

PHY 114: General Physics Laboratory Lab 1: Absorption of Nuclear Radiation 09/04/13 Abstract Nuclear physics was practiced to find the value of tau. After 8 trials of using a G-M counter and 8 different mass thicknesses of polyethylene‚ a graph was formed and tau was calculated to be 0.1931 cm^2/g‚ an error of 3.57% from the accepted value of 0.2 cm^2/g. Experiment was also used as an intro to using basic lab equipment‚ computer programs and calculating errors. With many different

and drinks we buy in the store‚ you find that 99% of them contain “high fructose corn syrup”‚ which is basically pure sugar. This means that the food industry is feeding a nationwide sugar addiction that is leading to a huge diabetes epidemic. It’s also interesting that the US government gives multibillion-dollar subsidies to the agribusiness corporations that grow and sell corn that ends up as high fructose corn syrup. Don’t you think our government should be working to protect our health‚ instead

tough decision to make. I think George should continue to look for another corn supplier that sells quality corn at a reasonable rate. George can also find out who supplys their competitior Abco Snack Food corn and try to get the corn for the same price. George can ship the grain outside the United States to make a profit‚ but I believe that is a wrong choice. George knows the corn is contaminated so he should not sell the corn to anyone even if it is legal to ship the grain internationally. Hurting

PHY 114: Absorption of Nuclear Radiation Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to determine the mass thickness attenuation factor for beta rays when they pass through polyethylene sheets of varying thicknesses. This was done by using an apparatus that measured the seven different intensities and then taking these values‚ putting them through a number of calculations and finally generating a graph of ln(I_corr) versus the thickness of the polyethylene sheets. Once this graph
