Easy-bake Oven and Meaty Sandwich
Emily Brown

English III AP

Normalcy for Lunch The clock dings twelve times; as it does your stomach growls reminding you it’s lunch time. Hopping up and into action you peer into the fridge and open up various draws searching for what your stomach begs you for. Cold turkey, ham, hotdogs, sausage links, and hamburger patties from the cook-out this past Tuesday, your eyes are bigger than your grumbling tummy. Slapping together a meaty sandwich you dig in. It all seems so simple, so normal, nothing wrong with that picture. But have you ever gazed into your fridge and saw Mr. Snuggles or Princess and thought to yourself, “Oh yay my favorite! Cat sounds so good right now!” Of course you haven’t! That would be absurd, unthought-of, sick minded, right? A cow isn’t snuggly, huggable, and warm welcoming upon your arrival home. You don’t walk into your house after a long day at the office and get trampled by your pig Rex. No, no, cats, dogs, and even hamsters are above those animals by far. They are animal royalty and are not to be toyed with. Well as long as the toy isn’t an easy bake oven. Frying up Fluffy is not something you see every day.
Did a group of people way back when set up a council meeting to set the moral standard of animals frowned upon eating? 1 Do you think I’m crazy just for realizing how weird this whole things actually

    When it comes to eating healthier or building more muscles, some people tend to think eating fresh-healthy foods is going to help accomplish that. While that may sound enticing and convincing, there are some companies out there that will take advantage of people’s lack of education in nutrition and manipulate individuals’ ideas in dictating what is a “healthy” way of eating. An example of this type of company is the fast-food restaurant Subway. Subway is very skilled in displaying images of fresh foods and using professional athletes to convince viewers that their sandwiches are the best solution to achieve an overall healthier or athletic lifestyle.…

    Ricardo Olea-Nava Professor Nagel ENG 99 6/6/2018 Powerful Ambition For a long time, ambition has been in humanity’s mind.

    In order for an owner and their cat to have a good relationship they have to have compatible personalities, mutual attraction, an ease of interaction, play, affection, and social support (Viegas). Cats have the ability to remember when their owner complies with their wishes and when their owner is nice to them, so the more a cat’s owner complies with their wishes and the nicer an owner is to their cat, the more their cat will comply with their owner’s wishes (Viegas). This ability shows how similar an animal’s relationship with its owner is to the relationship between two…

    The animals go from disregarding an unwritten, unspoken set of rules (the common belief that animals are lesser than humans) to disobeying a written set of rules. The pigs created the Seven Commandments as the definition of animalism, a philosophy that preached animal equality. The pigs say, “These Seven Commandments would now be inscribed on the wall; they would form an unalterable law by which all the animals on Animal Farm must live for ever after” (Orwell 9). The Seven Commandments stated that animals must never wear clothing, sleep in beds, or drink alcohol, as those things are characteristic of humans. However, as the pigs started doing all of the things that were prohibited, Squealer, the propagandist, modified the commandments to allow whatever the pigs were doing. Orwell suggests that there will always be a disruption of order. The animals disrupt the order that the humans established, while the pigs disregard the order that they themselves…

    This article examined how the perception of cuteness influences behavioral carefulness, enhancing people’s ability to care for infants. While researchers took physiological measures of heart activity and skin conductance, they exposed participants to a slide show of pictures of either i) infant animals (kittens and puppies) previously judged as very cute, or ii) adult animals (cats and dogs) judged to be less cute. Both before and after the slideshow, participants played the game “Operation” that required them to use tweezers to remove plastic body parts without touching the sides of the compartments. The game served as an assessment of behavioral carefulness. Participants exposed to cute infant animals displayed greater improvements in fine-motor control from before to after the slide show. Lack of consistent changes in physiological measures ruled out general physiological arousal as an explanation. Results indicated that cuteness not only motivates people to nurture, but also enhances their ability to do so.…

    We all know how the bad days go, sometimes you may be able to grab some finger food that you can stuff in your mouth on the only 2 free minutes you have for the day. Water? Forget it. Taking time to go to the bathroom? Some days you’re lucky if you go once or twice in a full 12 hour shift. Do we all know how bad this is for you? Yes. Do we still do it? Of course. Time is often not on our side, and our body suffers because of it. When surveyed, “half of respondents said they felt they had enough time to eat a healthy, balanced diet, while the other half said time pressures prevented them eating well. However, perhaps more significantly, 55% admitted to currently being ‘overweight’ or ‘very overweight’” ("How happy and," 2008).…
