I conducted an experiment using rice to determine whether or not my words and actions would have effect on it. In order to conduct this experiment, I needed three cleaned jars with lids and white rice. I first cooked three cups of rice without adding any additives. Once the rice was fluffy and soft, I put one cup of rice in each of the three jars I had. One of the jars I labeled Love You while the second one was labeled Hate You. Finally, the third jar was labeled Ignore You. All of the three jars were tightly closed and placed in separate places. The Ignore You jar was placed in the closet. The Love You jar was placed on a shelf next to my desk and the Hate You jar was placed on top of my dresser. I was to talk nicely to my Love You rice and …show more content…
I pretended that it was my mom so that it was easier for me to show how much I value it. On the other hand, I pretended that the Hate You rice was a former friend who I could not stand. I was able to say all the things I was unable to say to that person. In addition, I only looked at Ignore You rice when I took pictures of it, but I did not say a word to it. The rice did not change at all for the first four days. However, on the fifth day, both Ignore You and Love You rice started to rotten. They both had one rice that was rotting at the tip of it. By the end of week one all three jars of rice had started to rotten. I decided to switch the place that Hate You jar and Love You jar were because at this point the Hate You jar continued to look the best. I thought that even though I was talking nicely to my Love You rice, it continue to change because it was close to my laptop and I often listened to music that contains inappropriate language. At the beginning of week two I noticed that Ignore You rice continued to change in color. I also noticed that the Love You rice was not changing as much as before. I continued to talked to the rice over other night and it seemed like only the Ignore You was rotting little more. I noticed that it was rotting faster at end of week because it used to rot in chunks, but during this week only individual grain of rice were rotting. During this week, my nieces and nephews came …show more content…
However this week it was back to rotting in chunks, while Love You and Hate You continue to look pretty much the same. Towards the middle of this week, I noticed that the rice were not rotting in anymore, but instead the places that had already rotten were now changing in color. The rotten places used to look like black, but now it changed to a gay color. The Ignore You rice was now developing a white spider web looking thing on the top of the rotted area. Towards the end of the week I did not look at Ignore You anymore, but Love You and Hate You remain the same. Although the results were not as expected I continue to talk to the rice every other night. The fourth week was very different from the previous three weeks. At this time, Ignore You rice stopped rotting completely. I noticed that only Love You rice rotted a little more, but not much of a difference. I did not understand why the Hate You rice looked better than the Love You rice throughout the four weeks. During this week, I decided to talk to it every day to see it a made a difference. In addition, I also put on some music to both the Hate You and Love You rice. However, it did not have any effect on
Rice replaced Kalo ever since. The rice industry took over the Kalo patches and “In 1900, it was estimated that about 1280 acres were being used for kalo production… [and] by 1907, rice had become a major crop, occupying about 10,000 acres.” (4). There were no more Hawaiian farmers because Hawaiians were dying of all the new diseases that were introduced to the island. Chinese farmers took over growing the rice and what was left with of the Kalo. In 1973, majority of the Kalo farmers were
____12.What will happen in the rice market now if buyers expect higher rice prices in the near future?
The cultivation of rice has had an enormous impact on the natural biome. Rice has affected the natural biome that it is grown in, in a devastating way. It has caused the natural biomes to deteriorate and caused the natural way of life to collapse leaving no place for the native animals and plants. But what would happen if the cultivation of rice stopped and the natural biomes returned to their former glory? What would happen to all those people depending on rice for the next meal? Those who depend on rice to pay for and keep their families alive? This report looks at the where, effects, who and how of rice cultivation.
Angelina is five years old. For the first test Angelina said the smaller container had more water in it, “because the waters way up here (pointing to the smaller container) but it’s down her in the other one (pointing to the wider container)”. The second experiment she caid the flattened playdough had more because “it’s a big circle”. The third experiment Angelina said that both the stack and the row had the same amount “because 5 and 5”. It surprised me that she made sure to count both sections unlike Kyng who only counted the row. The fourth and last test Angelina said the string that was balled “because if you stretch it out it's the biggest one”. Her response to this question surprised me because I assumed that she would answer that the string that was already stretched out would be longer because it is visibly longer at that moment. When I asked Angelina, “Why does the sunshine” she responded, “When the sun goes up that means it’s time to wake up.” When I asked her, “Why is there snow?” she responded, “because when it’s Christmas sometimes snow comes out”. The third question Angelina did believe that I could see her when she closed her eyes. This also did not surprise me because I have had conversations before we started the experiment she had squinted her eyes and we were talking about what we could see and what she could see, so I assumed that she would have that answer. When I asked her “how many
The Marshmallow experiment is tested on children of four years of age. When the child is seated in a small room they are made an offer by Mischel. The offer is that they could either eat one marshmallow right away,or if they were willing to wait fifteen minutes while he ran an errand,they would be able to eat two marshmallows. The majority of four year olds wanted to eat the marshmallow right away. ”They didn't even bother ringing the bell.
There was an experiment called “Stanford marshmallow experiment” conducted by Walter Mischel. “He putted the marshmallows in front of the four years old children separately in the isolated room and he gave two choices to them. First choice was children can ring the bell equipped in the room to call the experimenter and have the marshmallow. The second choice was if children wait for 15mintues until the experimenter returned, then he can earn two marshmallows” (Walter 21). The purpose of this experiment was to observe the behavior of the children after they left with the marshmallow and found out the percentage of the children who endured and got the second reward marshmallow.

His voice softened, then dwindled, as he watched clouds of dust forming towering vortexes. They churned the fields like frenzied birds searching, searching. Brittle and barren, the once lush green pasture now lay dead on the sun baked ground.
In this experiment I am going to get really close to someone while we are talking and see their reaction. I am also just going to sit next to someone that I wouldn’t normally sit next to and I’m not going to say anything I am just going to sit by them and see what they do. I will also walk next to a stranger and get pretty close to them. When I see the reactions of the people that I am testing I am going to measure it with how fast they react, if or what they say, how awkward they act and if I get punched or not.
I have no human bed to sleep in, everybody else closes their doors, so I am left to sleep on a pile of clothes. I was so upset with her when she brought home another creature. You see I am a indoor cat, so I never go outside, like never. When the open the door to the outside door I just stare at it until someone closes it. So I have never seen another creature other than a human. So when I saw she had a box and inside contained a small white creature with red eyes, creepy, I got super scared and curious. I smelled it and I touched it! When I did I ran away. I heard her say, “ I saved him from being killed, they were going to euthanize him if I did not get him. Look at him he is the cutest rat ever!” I have no idea what euthanize is but I think the he can save himself. He is a rat, rhymes with cat, so that means he is must be related to cats. I still don’t like him,and sometimes I get the urge to just paw at him, but Cindy always gives me a look when I go near him, so she put him in one of the little human’s
The Glorious Revolution is considered to be the “bloodless revolution” even though one ruler was displaced by another in what most consider to be a war. What led to the revolution would change history and the political structure of England and forever place Catholic out of limits. Religious conflicts and political struggles led to the Glorious Revolution and the downfall of the absolute Monarchy in England. Oliver Cromwell died in 1658; he was not a monarch of England but instead was named Lord Protector by parliament after he defeated Charles I. Upon is death is son Richard assumed his role, but could not live up to his father’s name.
In 1990, the rice is grown around 520 million tons in 112 countries and 95 percent of them were produced and consumed in Asia (Chang). The rice in Asian culture is not just cereal, but it’s part of their lives. It serves their meal almost everyday on their dining table. Oryza sativa is a species of monocot plants and known as Asian rice. The grain was spread started from South Asia to Southeast Asia and East Asia.
My main takeaway from the Quality Project is that writing quality poetry is hard. Sure, I already knew that writing poetry was difficult, but this project further ingrained that fact in my brain. To add to this, I also gained a deeper appreciation for poetry and poets. By realizing just how difficult writing poems can be, I was able to be more impressed by people who make a living off of writing. Another thing I took away from this project is that I can be good at managing my time. At the beginning of the Quality Project, I was a bit nervous because I’ve procrastinated on many long-term projects before. However, as the Quality Project progressed, I became more and more comfortable with the long-term aspect of it. I managed my time wisely, trying to follow the plan outlined in my proposal, and it paid off. I’m pleasantly surprised by the time management abilities I used and developed over the course of this project.
NatuRi consiguió ubicarse al sur de Tamil Nadu, donde podría implementar su proceso sobre el salvado o RBO crudo mientras que al mismo tiempo se ejercía un completo control sobre las materias primas necesarias para la producción del Rice – Active. De este modo, el producto terminado tendría la calidad buscada por la empresa y así, se podrían conseguir buenos resultados al momento de entrar al mercado y enfrentar a la competencia.
Later new rice varieties were developed in the Philippines, most famously the IR-8 variety which is famous for increasing yields six fold in its first harvest. Since then further improvements have decreased the growing season required, allowing for extra rice craps to be grown, and made strains tolerant to a less than optimum
