ABSTRACT

The study focuses on making packets of deodorizer made from sliced orange peels and charcoal, and combination of sliced orange peels and lavender leaves with charcoal. The researcher used a teabag for its individual packaging.

The researchers investigated if there is a significant difference between the orange peel-charcoal shoe deodorizer and the orange peel-charcoal-lavender leaves shoe deodorizer.
Orange peel is the leathery exocarp or skin that contains numerous oil glands. The lavender is part of a plant usually used as ingredient of potpourri. The plant is also grown commercially for extraction of lavender oil from the flowers. This oil is used as an antiseptic and for aromatherapy. Charcoal is a product known for it effectively absorbs and traps odors.

  • Comparative Study Essay

    ...How is conflict featuring in key relationships, the catalyst for the pursuit of dreams? In the novel, Sons and Lovers by D.H Lawrence and the movie, The Glass Menagerie based on the play by Tennessee Williams, conflict featuring in relationships plays a key role in altering one’s pursuit of dream. A range of relationships are explored and this is done through a variety of language techniques such as symbolism and imagery. The movie, The Glass Menagerie is set in a small apartment in St Louis in America. The context of the film is important to understand as; the people did not have any welfare support. The difference is also exemplified in the idea of how relationships tie to one another; Tom can only leave the house when his ‘sister gets married’ as she is the elder. Tom’s dreams are bound by his commitment to his family and his job in the warehouse; his “ambitions do not lie in this house”. The warehouse represents a sense of lack of adventure and instinct. Similarly the mines in Sons and Lovers represent the same idea. The novel, Sons and Lovers, is set in England in the beginning of the industrial revolution. Like the Wingfield’s, the Morel’s also represent the lower end of the social chart, the working class. The idea of social pose is central to both texts, as both of these groups have grown up in object poverty, wanting much better for their kids. The Glass Menagerie has an anecdotal structure, giving it a sense of reflection. The title of the...

  • Essay about Comparative Study

    ...ii) The play, “Juno and Paycock”, by Sean O’ Casey is another comparative text I have studied under the theme of poverty. It is set in the inner city of Dublin during the Irish Civil War. It centres on how does the poverty affect the Boyle family members living in a two-room tenancy in a tenement house at the time of when Dublin had some of the worst slums in Europe. The key moment of the play which draws my attention to the chosen theme is the scene where Juno Boyle told her husband, Jack “Captain” Boyle, to take his breakfast when he finally comes back home one morning near the opening of the play. In this scene, “Captain” Boyle supposedly comes back home from a pub late in the morning with his parasitical friend, Joxer Daly, and Juno is supposed to be going to work but stays behind to ensure that Joxer wouldn’t eat their scarce supply of food. She succeeds in getting rid of him and ensuring her husband to eat well “Here, sit down an’ take your breakfast - it may be the last you’ll get, for I don’t know where the next is goin’ to come from.” This portrays how dire is the poverty the family lives in. In such poverty, there is always a risk of families having no food to provide for themselves in a time or another. This is unsurprising because Mrs Boyle is the only member of the play who is employed. Her adult children, Mary and Johnny, are unemployed like their father. Mary is on strike “for a principle” and therefore is unemployed. Johnny lost his right arm...

  • Study Guide for Kingsford Charcoal Essay

    ...Kingsford Charcoal Case Brief Problem Identification and Situation Analysis Clorox Corporation depends upon Kingsford Charcoal as an important revenue (9% in 2000) and net income contributor in the product portfolio. Since the 1980’s Kingsford had enjoyed steady 1-3% growth, but summer 2000 revenue was expected to fall short of forecast. The Kingsford brand managers took on a challenge to assess and propose solutions to the first-time overall softening of the charcoal category. The softening of the market could be attributed to various causes. Some causes explored include: Changes in consumer demand: * Downward trend in charcoal grill purchases and upward trend in gas grill purchases since 1997 Changes in marketplace: * Further fragmentation of market with introduction of Royal Oaks’ private label brands * Price climbing in private label brands Product-related challenges: * Seasonal imbalance, with sales highest in summer months Kingsford-related factors: Increased sales promotions (and associated increase in volume) do not make up for the decreased media expense, as evidenced by reduced revenue. Figure 1 Recommended Marketing Objectives for Kingsford Brand We recommend two primary marketing objectives for the Kingsford brand: 1. Grow the charcoal category 2. Differentiate Kingsford among other charcoal products In order to achieve the...

  • Confucianism and Taoism: a Comparative Study Essay

    ...Date: Monday, January 31, 2011 Confucianism and Taoism: A Comparative Study RELG 253: Learning Cell One TA: Lisa Blake Often described as the two sides of the coin, Confucianism and Taoism are being practiced, today, by over 225 million people and have existed for more than 2400 years in East Asian culture1. Despite the many differences in both traditions, however, we may also find a lot of similarities. Whether in government application or through abstract, immaterial ideals, we find that the two-sided coin can sometimes land on its side. To begin any comparison between the two traditions, one must understand the historical background of each. Firstly, Confucius was born during a period of struggle and political unrest; this was a period that spanned around three centuries resulting from the Chinese states’ continual desire to expand their borders2. Similarly, Zhuangzi appears in 369 B.C.E, again a time of continual warfare and expansion (RELG 253 Lecture, 24 January 2011). For this reason, it would be true to assume that assassinations, bribery, adultery, and other crimes were a very common problem. The latter problems would create a desire for social harmony, peace and happiness among the people and the rulers. So, the creation of Confucianism and Taoism was actually a response to these calls and to the need for better governmental rule. But then, how would governments, ruled by the ideas proposed by Confucianism and Taoism,...
