Chili Report - choosing a chili for a cook off competition. History and different types of chili.
Introduction Chili encompasses more than a food that is fit for human consumption. It embodies different cultures and a way of life. There are many different types of chili's that encapsulate an array of specific flavors. Chili themes vary based on geographic location. For years people have heard of Chili Cook-Offs in the South, and now here at Cal Poly Pomona, the Collins College will dive into the world of Chili. Kitchen two has decided to create a flatlander southern style Chili. In the process of creating this dish our team has experimented with different types of Chili, learned a brief history of chili, chili cooks offs, and conducted an analysis for the selection of our chili, resulting in our choice of southern chili. History of Chili Most historians agree that "chili began as a peasant dish prepared by poor people using cheap, inferior cuts of meat cooked together with other inexpensive, readily available ingredients, primarily peppers and onions"(1). They also agree that "chili is an American, not Mexican, dish although chili is associated closely with the Mexican population in Texas, and dishes similar to chili can be found in Mexico, particularly the north" (2). San Antonio was the first city to create chili. Historians believe that the creation of chili took place in the 1820's. In the 1880's; "Mexican women dressed in embroidered peasant blouses and

Analyse the methods used to make the opening battle sequence of 'Saving Private Ryan' both shocking and realistic, and say how effective you find it as an introduction to the film 'The last thing I wanted to do in this picture was use the war simply as a springboard for action-adventure. I was looking for realism all the time'. Steven Spielberg. Saving Private Ryan, by Steven Spielberg is said to break the traditional conventions of the war film genre. The film tries to include the audience in the chaos of battle by using handheld cameras. The handheld cameras show the emotions of the soldiers and were also used to make the audience feel as though they are involved in the battle. Steven Spielberg purposely does this because he wants the film to be as realistic as possible. During the opening battle, sequences that lasts for twenty-four minutes, the camera gets splattered with blood. This helps immensely to create the idea of the audience seeing action through the eyes of a soldier. Those scenes helped to win the film several Academy Awards, including Best Director for Steven Spielberg, who has been directing films since 1975. The film also uses de-saturated colour during the battle scenes. The sky is dull, the sea is rough and all the soldiers look very sombre. It isn't surprising that they felt this way and Tom Hanks, a leading actor in the film, did well to create
A Study of Freud and Jung on the Values of Religious Belief.
A Study of Freud and Jung on the Values of Religious Belief. INTRODUCTION In this essay I will look into the studies and the theories of Sigmund Freud and Carl Gustav Jung and their insight into religion. Sigmund Freud was born on May 6 1856 in Freiberg, Moravia, now in the Czech Republic. Freud developed the techniques of ''Psycho-Analysis'' for the treatment of psychological and emotional disorders. Which brings me to Carl Gustav Jung, whom Freud met in 1907 and the pair became close friends. Jung was a Swiss psychologist, who had different views on religion than Freud. Freud’s View THE DEVELOPMENT OF RELIGION In relation to the value of religious belief, you have to look at the origins of humanity. The primitive world in which the early hominids lived in was a harsh one, uncivilised in the sense that they lived for all the basic things in life, primarily to reproduce. Primitive humans lived mainly in tribes and were much like animals, a pride of lions or a herd of buffalo for example. There was no real sense of individuality, they lived for the tribe. If a member were to die or be killed, they left to rot or be eaten by other animals. This was due to the limited consciousness of the primitive humans, they could not comprehend that the world did not revolve around themselves, in other words they were not really aware of other tribe member's consciousness. The

Social Capital has been described as involving egocentric, weak ties and socio-centric types of relationships. How might these concepts help to improve the way organisations generate new knowledge. Might some these concepts also act as a barrier to generating and sharing knowledge? Explain your answer. Introduction In contemporary, highly developing business environment, the success factors of many organisations have been affected with the rapid advancement in communication and ways of sharing knowledge. The knowledge economy has changed the basis of trading and doing business. Success and wealth of businesses no longer depends on their wealth of organisations but on the abilities and knowledge of their employees and the degree to which an organisation harnesses and develops those skills. The more effective the relationship between supplier and customer, the more successful an organisation is. This success depends on their abilities to operate in today's fast moving global marketplace. Defining the notion of Social Capital The notion of social capital first appeared in discussions of rural school community centers by Lyda Judson Hanifan's. Hanifan addressed the cultivation of good will, fellowship, sympathy and social intercourse among those that 'made up a social unit.' More recently however, the work of Robert D. Putnam (1993, 2000) launched social capital as a focus
Polanski's film version of 'Macbeth' is a very effective interpretation of the play.
Polanski's Macbeth Polanski's film version of 'Macbeth' is a very effective interpretation of the play. Every detail that Polanski includes is significant but also has an implication behind it. By referring closely to every detail of Polanski's film version of Act1 Scene 1 we could interpret what this scene is like, but not only that, we can interpret what the content of the play will be like. From the beginning of the play we are feeling a sense of curiosity and confusion as to what is happening. The scene is unique and remarkable, which makes Polanski's image of 'Macbeth' both intriguing and creative. Upon watching 'Macbeth' the first event that is noticed is the sunrise. This is unforeseen. A sunrise is a beautiful image, but it doesn't quite fit into the play 'Macbeth' as the play is full of darkness and evil. The sunrise displays many different spectrums of colours which all have a representation and a purpose for being used. The first colour we notice is pink, which epitomizes a time of prosperity under king Duncan. We are aware that king Duncan was a generous and prosperous king. The sunrise changes colour then from red, promptly to grey. This is symbolical of the bloody and tyrannous rule of Macbeth and his later depressed state of mind. The sky then turns blue rather slowly which insinuates a sign of hope and the slow restoration of natural order, which had been

The Growth of Fascism - 'As an advisor to Giolitti, in 1921, to explain the growth and nature of the Fascist movement.'
The Growth of Fascism Task: 'As an advisor to Giolitti, in 1921, to explain the growth and nature of the Fascist movement.' It appears that Fascism has achieved much support from a wide spectrum of groups during its early days. Support came from the middle class (small shopkeepers, artisans and small businessmen.) These groups had become particularly destabilised by industrialisation and war. They felt themselves trapped in a conflict between socialism and capitalism. Fascism has promised an end to Socialism (many in Europe feared the spread of Communism after the success of the Bolsheviks in Russia in 1917) and wished for curbs on the power of big business. Yet some factory owners also support Fascism as they saw it as a defence against the Socialist trade unions during the Biennio Rosso. Professional people, white-collar workers and state employees whose savings and standard of living had been hit by inflation (due to war effort), but who lacked trade unions to protect them, also support the fascists. There is strong support from ex-servicemen, especially ex-officers and N.C.Os who were angered by the socialist's lack of patriotism and who had difficulty in adjusting to civilian life after the war. Young men particularly students who had experienced war and were very proud of victory of 1918 and wished to protect their country from the left are also in support of Fascism.
Cloning - The assualt on the sanctity of life
Brian Lockyer Grade 12 Life Sciences Research Task 1/03/08 Do you support the process of harvesting body parts and cloning methods? The History of cloning Cloning has been occurring in the natural world for thousands of years. A clone is just a time-delayed twin of another person or animal which results in both organisms acquiring the same set of genes. Throughout history and most notably in the last hundred years huge strives have been made in the field of genetics, and they are bound to keep on happening. The first person known to have successfully cloned an animal was Hans Dreisch in the late 1800's. Dreisch used sea urchins because they have large embryo cells and through his experiments he proved that genetic material is not lost during cell division. In 1902, Hans Spemman successfully separated a 2 celled embryo of a salamander which eventually developed into an identical salamander. Both these early breakthroughs paved the way for the modern concept of cloning. The next advance happened fifty years later in a laboratory in Philadelphia where a group of scientists successfully cloned a frog embryo. This breakthrough was huge because the team did not simply break off a cell from the embryo of the frog; they removed the nucleus and replaced it for the nucleus of an unfertilized frog egg cell. This was a huge breakthrough for modern
Compare and contrast ways in which David Guterson and Grahame Greene present painful conflict in love relationships that cross boundaries within Snow falling on Cedars and The End of the Affair
"Here's much to-do with hate, but more with love" (Romeo). Compare and contrast ways in which David Guterson and Grahame Greene present painful conflict in love relationships that cross boundaries within "Snow falling on Cedars" and "The End of the Affair" Caroline Finnerty Guterson and Greene profoundly scrutinize how love and hate entangle within their characters of Ishmael and Bendrix. The painful aftermath ensuing the death of a passionate love affair leads to an apt account of internally conflicting emotions and the blurry line separating them - as Bendrix comments: "hatred seems to operate the same glands as love: it even produces the same actions"1 A pivotal issue for both Guterson and Greene is the way in which conflict of emotions and relationships affect men and women differently. Both authors use the male characters to depict a selfish love centred on desire and romantic ideals. Ishmael is portrayed as naive and childlike in his blind dreams: "Love is the strongest thing in the world you know. Nothing can touch it. Nothing comes close. If we love each other we're safe from it all."2 He chooses to ignore the problems arising both from the war and Pearl Harbour and the culture of their people. The Japanese and Americans were enemies in the war, who would have objected to the romance. Dissimilarly, Bendrix is perceptive of the cruelty of the world. He
How does Priestly present the effect of the Inspectors visit on Sheila compared with the other characters in the play?
How does Priestly present the effect of the Inspectors visit on Sheila compared with the other characters in the play? Sheila is deeply affected by the Inspector's visit compared to the other characters. As soon as the Inspector enters and introduces the victim to the family, Sheila was upset and depressed because of the misery she sensed which made her feel apologetic and guilty of what she had done to Eva Smith. Nonetheless the others were not interested and thought that they were not responsible for Eva's death except for Eric. Furthermore the Inspector has a mischievous attitude, with the intention of, made the rest of the family suspicious about him. Inspector Goole (as he addresses himself) is a sly and secretive individual who acts like a detective and uses his skills to make them confess the truth. The Inspector mentions society to be treated fairly and Mr Birling replies in an intolerable way, ''nonsense... a man has to make his own way.'' Priestly is trying to say that everyone should be working and helping each other where everyone can be equal. As the Inspector visits the Birlings who are celebrating an engagement, Sheila looks confused and feels depressed because she is suspicious of the Inspector and feels uncomfortable; (Sheila stares at him) '' wonderingly and dubiously '' whereas the others such as Mr and Mrs. Birling enters '' briskly and self
