Before you begin cooking, make sure you have a clean skillet, bowl, cutting board, and knife. Dice the jalapenos, cilantro, onions, and tomatoes. Slice two small limes and juice them onto the mixture. Allow this to marinate while you begin to work on the taco meat.

Take out your skillet and place it on the burner. Pour in 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and heat at medium high heat. Add in the ground beef and two cloves of minced garlic. Season with generous amounts of chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and fresh ground black pepper. Once the meat begins to brown, add two cloves of minced garlic. After the meat has cooked through, remove the mixture from the stove. Heat your tortillas in the same skillet you cooked the meat in if you like your tortillas crispy. Once your tortillas are warmed to your liking, load them up with the beef and the diced vegetables that have been marinating in lime juice. Top with crumbled queso fresco if desired.

 

Which step contradicts "Once the meat begins to brown, add two cloves of minced garlic"?

But man is not destined to vanish. He can be killed, but he cannot be destroyed, because his soul is deathless and his spirit is irrepressible. Therefore, though the situation seems dark in the context of the confrontation between the superpowers, the silver lining is provided by amazing phenomenon that the very nations which have spent incalculable resources and energy for the production of deadly weapons are desperately trying to find out how they might never be used. They threaten each other, intimidate each other and go to the brink, but before the total hour arrives they withdraw from the brink.

"Irrepressible" in the second line means ____________

Mahatma Ghandi was an inspirational leader who made a lot of sacrifices for the people of India. In 1921, Gandhi took charge of the Indian National Congress, a group of thirteen men in the Indian government who fought discrimination and unfair taxation against farmers and urban laborers. Using the nonviolent tactic of civil disobedience, Gandhi and his followers bravely resisted British control over Indian life, choosing not to follow unfair, discriminatory laws and policies. The British were not happy to see Ghandi and his followers rebelling in this way.

The British responded to this resistance by strengthening their military presence in India, often at the cost of human lives. While Ghandi was fighting to gain more freedom for the people of India, the British government was, often violently, suppressing it. For his effort, Gandhi was eventually imprisoned in 1942 for his "radical" beliefs, but he refused to recognize violence as a means of fighting the British. He gained international attention for his hunger strikes, refusing to eat until the British changed their unjust policies.

Attempted Assassination of Secretary Seward

DETAILS OF THE DREADFUL TRAGEDY

Official

War Department, Washington April 15, 1:30 AM. Maj. Gen. Dis. This evening at about 9:30 PM. at Ford's Theatre, the President, while sitting in his private box with Mrs. Lincoln, Mr. Hamis, and Major Rathburn was shot by an assassin, who suddenly entered the box and appeared behind the President. The assassin then. leaped upon the stage, brandishing a large dagger or knife, and made his escape in the rear of the theatre. The pistol ball entered the back of the President's head and penetrated nearly through the head The wound is mortal The President has been insensible ever since it was inflicted, and is now dying.

The pretense of having a prescription, was shown to the Secretary's sick chamber. The assassin immediately rushed to the bed, and inflicted two or three stabs on the throat and two on the face. It is hoped the wounds may not be mortal. My apprehension is that they will prove fatal.

The nurse alarmed Mr. Frederick Seward, who was in an adjoining room, and hastened to the door of his father's room, when he met the assassin, who inflicted upon him one or more dangerous wounds. The recovery of Frederick Seward is doubtful.

It is not probable that the President will live throughout the night.

Gen. Grant and wife were advertised to be at the theatre this evening, but he started to Burlington at 6 o'clock this evening. At a Cabinet meeting at which Gen. Grant was present, the subject of the state of the country and the prospect of a speedy peace was discussed. The President was very cheerful and hopeful, and spoke very kindly of Gen. Lee and others of the Confederacy, and of the establishment of government in Virginia.

All the members of the Cabinet except Mr. Seward are now in attendance upon the President. I have seen Mr. Seward, but he and Frederick were both unconscious.

Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War.

The underlined word mortal means:

Disequilibrium at the interface of water and air is a factor on which the transfer of heat and water vapor from the ocean to the air depends. The air within about a millimeter of the water is almost saturated with water vapor and the temperature of the air is close to that of the surface water. Irrespective of how small these differences might be, they are crucial, and the disequilibrium is maintained by air near the surface mixing with air higher up, which is typically appreciably cooler and lower in water vapor content. The turbulence, which takes its energy from the wind mixes the air.

As the speed of wind increases, so does the turbulence, and consequently the rate of heat and moisture transfer. We can arrive at a detailed understanding of this phenomenon after further study. The transfer of momentum from wind to water, which occurs when waves are formed is an interacting-and complicated phenomenon. When waves are made by the wind, it transfers important amounts of energy-energy, which is consequently not available for the production of turbulence.

The wind over the ocean usually does which of the following according to the given passage

I. Leads to cool, dry air coming in proximity with the ocean surface.

II. Maintains a steady rate of heat and moisture transfer between the ocean and the air.

III. Results in frequent changes in the ocean surface temperature.

Before you begin cooking, make sure you have a clean skillet, bowl, cutting board, and knife. Dice the jalapenos, cilantro, onions, and tomatoes. Slice two small limes and juice them onto the mixture. Allow this to marinate while you begin to work on the taco meat.

Season with generous amounts of chili powder, garlic powder, paprika, cumin, salt, and fresh ground black pepper. Once the meat begins to brown, add two cloves of minced garlic. After the meat has cooked through, remove the mixture from the stove. Heat your tortillas in the same skillet you cooked the meat in if you like your tortillas crispy. Once your tortillas are warmed to your liking, load them up with the beef and the diced vegetables that have been marinating in lime juice. Top with crumbled queso fresco if desired.

Which of the following is a step that is missing from the recipe?

Darlene has a list of errands that she needs to accomplish today. She needs to pick up her laundry from the dry cleaner's after getting a loaf of bread. She also needs to buy an orange at the grocery store before going to the bakery for a loaf of bread. The most important errand she has to do first is to drop off 12 dog toys at the veterinarian's office.

In what order will Darlene be stopping at these locations to complete her errands?

Many teachers across the country are noticing the importance of film in the modern classroom. No longer is putting a movie on meant as an invitation for students to check out while the teacher does work at their desk. Films are a versatile medium, and can function as textbooks, pieces of literature, or pieces of art that can bring a new dimension to a student's learning. The teachers leading this charge know that teaching a film effectively means preparing lessons with the same amount of time and effort as any other days. A teacher could simply shut the lights and throw on the first 20 minutes of Steven Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan" because the class is studying World War II. Or, the teacher could spend a class period analyzing the scene with the class, looking at how Spielberg builds anxiety and tension, how he creates the chaos of the beach, and how he gets the audience to care for characters they haven't even met yet.

Which of the following sentences would be a supporting detail to explain how "Saving Private Ryan" could be used in the classroom?
