Tips on Managing a Fast-Food Restaurant

Over 500,000 eateries offer fast food in countries around the globe. Many of them sell sandwiches, fried chicken, ice cream, soft drinks, and coffee. Running a fast-food outlet isn't entirely different from operating a traditional restaurant, but managers need to focus on speed more than ambiance. These tips can help: 1. When you advertise a job opening, always inform potential employees about all of the position's requirements and expectations. You won't benefit from hiring someone who can't perform a necessary task that you neglected to mention. Ask plenty of questions; try to identify candidates who work quickly, communicate clearly, and show up reliably. 2. After hiring staff members, train them to perform routine tasks and safely handle unforeseen events. Provide fair, honest feedback; fast-food workers often find it difficult to assess their own performance. If you were promoted and have already become friends with some of the employees, remember not to demand mor...

Discipline: What's Really Needed When Starting Archery

Image
When you pick up your first bow, expect your instructors or coaches to pound the basics of archery into you. They’re going to be harsher than the toughest drill instructors and for good reason. Archery is a sport that centers on discipline, and this is manifested in two things. It is first manifested in its rigorous concern of safety; make no mistake, archery done in negligence can result in injuries at best, and fatalities at worst. Never aim your bow at another person, and always draw the bow properly. These, and many others, are the simple ways that we archers use discipline to uphold both our own safety and that of those around us. While many archers are disciplined with regards to safety, they still end up being inattentive of another aspect of archery: consistency. Archery is a sport of discipline, because it takes thousands of meticulous hours to hone the body to shoot every arrow consistently. Draw the bow the same way, aim at the same spot, and release the arrow in the same ma...

Atheism is the Open Stance

The existence of God is a debate that has raged throughout much of human history, and we are not likely to end the bickering anytime soon. in spite of this, there are certainly some misconceptions we can clear up to help move the discussion along. In particular, the idea of atheism being "closed-minded" is an idea that should be put to rest. While individuals can certainly be close-minded or misinformed, it does not apply to the stance. Hopefully, this article can shed some light on this issue. At the root of this confusion is a massive misunderstanding of what atheism is. Many erroneously believe that atheism exists only as the claim "I know there is no God." The atheist claim is, broadly speaking, "I lack belief in any gods." This distinction may seem subtle, but it makes a world of ideological difference. Atheism is not necessarily a denial of the existence of any and all deities. It simply describes the absence of belief. It is the same lack of belief ...

Should You Buy an Electric Baseboard Heater or Space Heater?

Around one out of three Americans use electricity as their most significant heat source, and many more people depend on it for supplemental heating. If you want to benefit from electric heat in your home or office, you'll need to decide between baseboard and space heaters. Space Heater Advantages Most portable electric heaters offer excellent versatility. You may move this appliance from room to room and point it in any direction. Renters appreciate the fact that you can also take these devices with you when you move to a different home. Space heaters cost less than baseboard units and most other heating equipment. There's no need to pay an electrician to install or replace these appliances; you only have to plug them into standard outlets. Keep in mind that it's often dangerous to use extension cords. Baseboard Heater Benefits An electric baseboard heating system has a space-saving design with a low profile and no visible cords. You can control these units with convenient ...

What is Nevus Sebaceous?

Image
Nevus Sebaceous is a birthmark commonly found on the scalp, less commonly on the face, that is made of extra oil glands. It is a congenital defect that occurs before birth within the outer layer of the embryo, also known as the ectoderm. It is usually a pink or orange-colored patch on the scalp in which no hair grows. You do not see changes in this birthmark until you hit puberty. It will then start to rise and become bumpier, which can cause discomfort in a variety of everyday tasks such as brushing, washing, or blow-drying the hair. You might feel it is slightly itchy. This is because it has developed a thicker surface and may even develop sores. If you were to itch these sores, there is a good chance the lesion will begin to bleed. Even with this abnormal discomfort, it is still safe to just be monitored over time by your doctor. Can it be removed? The removal of the birthmark is an option if you or your child typically desires it or are in a place where it isn't as bearable as ...

Best Birth Control

Image
When it comes to picking the right birth control, things can get confusing. There are several options out there, and the best birth control depends on your lifestyle. Different forms of contraception can fit into four categories: oral, implant, single-use, and low-maintenance. 1. Oral Oral forms of birth control include the combination pill and the mini pill. The combination pill consists of two hormones, estrogen, and progestin. The mini-pill only contains progestin. Oral contraceptive is best for those who can remember to take their pill every day around the same time. The combined pill is the most common of the two because it is better at regulating periods, and it has a larger usage window. The usage window for the combination pill depends on the brand, but it is typically 12-24 hours, while the mini pill is only 3-12 hours before you are no longer protected. 2. Implant Options for a birth control implant include the IUD and the implant (AKA the Nexplanon). For both options, a doct...

The Spiral Jetty: Utah's Remote Landmark

Image
In 1970, artist Robert Smithson set out to construct a sculpture composed entirely of natural materials. After scouting various locations across the United States, Smithson chose the shores of Utah’s Great Salt Lake. The Great Salt Lake is a steadily receding remnant of ancient Lake Bonneville. Smithson was struck by the Great Salt Lake’s isolated desert location. Smithson was also captivated by the Great Salt Lake’s partial crimson color—which is caused by a certain type of bacteria that flourishes when the salt content of the water is especially high. Robert Smithson’s Spiral Jetty is one of Utah’s most cherished and recognizable landmarks. Visitors from across the state of Utah and beyond make regular pilgrimages to the site of Smithson’s enduring creation. Mud, Salt Crystals, and Basalt Robert Smithson constructed the 1,500-foot-long Spiral Jetty by contracting a construction crew from nearby Ogden to haul 6,650 tons of rock and earth to a remote stretch of the Great Salt Lake know...
