i have my question(but still figuring out how to word it):
Does Pepsi at room temp.(_degrees F) evaporate more when poured over __# of ice cubes(i will say how many ml) into a _oz cup than all-ready refrigerated Pepsi(at _degrees F) poured into a _oz. cup?

i was wondering if that has too many variables because the cold one doesn't have ice.

but MORE IMPORTANTLY- i was wondering if anyone could tell me websites, books, articles, or anything that would help my find information about this project! i need to do quite a lot of research! thanks.

At the end of last school year, I felt completely burned out, but I figured that a Summer off would reinvigorate me. Well, I was wrong. I'm having daily headaches, and I've come to resent the vast amounts of personal time I have to devote to teaching so many ungreatful, undisciplined students.

I have had many rewarding moments over the course of my year (and a quarter) of teaching in an urban district, but it's hard to justify those rare moments when I am hollering every 30 seconds to get the attention of my 9th graders. I'm not an extrovert, so dealing with 90 different personalities totally drains me and leaves me with little to offer my husband and 2 year-old.

I'm about 90% decided to begin a job search, but I feel so guilty about the prospect of "abandoning" my students, many of whom have lost teachers mid-year before. How do I balance my physical and mental health needs with the needs of my students and principal? Am I being selfish to leave now?

Day by day, minute by minute, Tom the Terrible Turkey could smell himself sizzling after being baked on a shiny silver platter. Thanksgiving was getting closer and the farm was full of chaos. Tim just knew he be would be the first choice of the Buck family’s Thanksgiving dinner. He had to find a way to set up somebody else or the family would have nothing to eat for dinner and things would fall apart. It was time for hoe down, the annual party of the year and Tom had a wonderful idea; he would get sick, so the Bucks couldn’t eat him; he went to the festival without a jacket and caught the flu. Within the next week Papa Buck was spotted walking the lines of the farm. He was a hound looking for a fresh deer to kill, but in this case it was Tom. When he finally found him and noticed Tom was sick as a dog, he didn’t know what to do; since Tom was sick somebody else had to take his place. It would be Cowry the Clucking Chicken. When Papa finally got a hold of him, he notice Cowry was sick too; the disease must have spread in the coop and now things were beginning to fall apart; Papa had no idea on what he would do for dinner. His family wasn’t the usual every day farm people that ate greasy succulent bacon in the morning. Matter fact they ate no bacon because they didn’t eat pork. This meant Porky the Occupied Pig was out of the question the festive dinner. The family now had nothing to eat and the whole meal was ruined. They couldn’t have turkey, their chickens were sick and they didn’t eat pork. What would they do before Thanksgiving came? Its not like they could produce another turkey quick fast and in a hurry. Thanksgiving day was now a day a way and the Buck family still had nothing to eat for Thanksgiving other than the usual: cornbread, stuffing, macaroni, candied yams, apple pie, peach cobbler and banana pudding. Everything was falling apart on the Buck farm. A family tradition was about to be broken and animals in the farm were dieing, including Tom. This would be the worst Thanksgiving ever.

By AS, I mean Associates in Science, NOT AAS (Applied Science).

What's the difference between an Associates in Arts and Associates in Science degree?

In a planning worksheet I found at my college, it states that an AA is for "students who plan to transfer to a bachelorette-granting school to pursue a bachelor's degree in a liberal arts or business area."

For an AS, it states "an AS degree is designed for students who plan to transfer to a bachelorette-granting degree in a science or science related field."

Okay, that makes sense although I'm not 100% sure what a liberal arts area is. But the thing is I'm undecided about what I want to major in.

Say if I went for the AA degree, I'd still be able to transfer to the same University as I would if I had an AS, right?

Like I said, I'm undecided. So what if I got an AA, transfered, then while I'm at a 4 year school, I decide to do something in a science related field, say computer science for example. I'd be able to do that right?
