She is in JK and so although figs start with an "F", I am not sure most kids like figs. The food/snack does not have to be 100% healthy, just not totally sugary either. Please just provide any suggestions. This is much appreciated as I have been racking my brain and have only come up with figs and french fries.

Whenever I have a project or test, I always find myself starting it within two days of the due date. Since I take all honors courses, I find this very stressful, but I also find it difficult to break the habit. Does anyone else have this problem? What did you do to help stop yourself from procrastinating?

At the request of a distiller named Bigo from the north of France, Pasteur began to examine why alcohol becomes contaminated with undesirable substances during fermentation. He soon demonstrated that each sort of fermentation is linked to the existence of a specific microorganism or ferment -- a living being that one can study by cultivation in an appropriate, sterile medium. This insight is the basis of microbiology.

Pasteur delivered the fatal blow to the doctrine of spontaneous generation, the theory held for 20 centuries that life could arise spontaneously in organic materials. He also developed a germ theory. At the same time, he discovered the existence of life without oxygen: "Fermentation is the consequence of life without air". The discovery of anaerobic life paved the way for the study of germs that cause septicemia and gangrene, among other infections. Thanks to Pasteur, it became possible to devise techniques to kill microbes and to control contamination.

I am wondering about the term you would use if you were talking about an advertising flier...or would that be flyer???

Hmmm...the librarian says it would be "flyer", & that "flier" is for a person on an airplane, but the entrepreneurial book on the shelf said "flier" is the correct term for an advertising brochure.

I confess I'm stumped!

Thank you for your help!

They get all their weekends off, they get holidays off, about 2 weeks off for Christmas, plus Spring Break. Many even get most of the summer off. Are they really underpaid or is it a myth?
