CR 22/3

It is the mark of a superior conductor that he or she has the authority to insist, even with a top orchestra, that rehearsal work must be intensified. This authority cannot simply be claimed, the conductor must earn it by winning the orchestra’s respect for the artistic interpretations he or she is currently pursuing.
In taking the position outlined, the author presupposes which one of the following?
(A) Superior conductors devise different interpretations of composition for each orchestra with which they perform it.
(B) Superior conductors are perfectionists who are never satisfied with any performance even by a top orchestra.
(C) Top orchestras are always ready to put in additional work on rehearsals if the conductor considers additional rehearsing necessary.
(D) Top orchestras can appreciate the merits of an interpretation even before they have brought it to full realization
(E) Even top orchestras are not always led by superior conductors.

PaintBall fun

Few days back we went to the belbourne park and I saw two young groups playing and having fun with paint balling. They used paintball equipment like paintball gear and tippmann where I thought were real.
It's a good thing that now a days, They had paintball to satisfy thier cravings for action. It's a fun and safe environment to enjoy war game scenarios.They also used uniforms and even masks. That was truly fun seeing them fighting with the paintball markers and paintball guns.

I would probably go there this summer and take pleasure in watching those paintball players. And I would also probably get more pictures and details as I can, to know more about this.

The energy policy of the United States has focused for years on developing methods of production, including nuclear power plants, and on increasing exploration for oil, gas, and coal. However, the country still faces energy shortages, and the environmental risks of most methods of energy production are increasingly unacceptable. It is clear that the United States must adopt a more realistic energy policy. Our problems spring not from a shortage of energy, but from a surplus of demand.

Which of the following policies would be most likely to lead to the resolution of the energy problems facing the United States as they are analyzed above?

a. Developing nuclear power plants that operate with fewer technicians.

b. Increasing the tax on energy consumption to encourage conservation.

The Brownsville city council, in an effort to motivate residents either to cut down on their smoking or to quit entirely, has placed a ban on smoking in all public places in the city. Area smokers, however, who previously smoked only when they felt an unconscious desire to do so, now consciously choose to smoke when they are at home, in their cars, etc., in order to diminish the chance that the desire to smoke will overtake them in public.
Which of the following, if true, would, when coupled with the information provided above, demonstrate that the city council action has not achieved its intended purpose?

a. Several members of the Brownsville city council are smokers, and these members aggressively opposed the ban.

b. The ban on smoking in public places has resulted in an overall decrease in the sale of cigarettes in the area, causing some local merchants to go out of business.

CR Challenger 05/03/2009

Dr. Bronstein, the noted oncological researcher, cites contradictory evidence in his article comparing smoking and environmental factors as cancer-causing agents in humans. He attributes the increase in cancer-related mortality “largely to lung cancer,” which he further notes, “is itself largely due to smoking.” In a similar vein, he makes reference to methodologically sound studies which pinpoint smoking as the actor which causes the greatest number of cancer deaths. Yet, he then goes on record as stating that he agrees with estimates that approximately 80 percent of human cancers are caused by environmental factors and not by smoking.
Which one of the following would most contribute to an explanation of the apparent discrepancy described above?

a. The sources which Dr. Bronstein cited for the statistics linking 80 percent of human cancers to environmental factors cited smoking as the next largest cause of human cancers.

b. Dr. Bronstein fails to make the assumption that a given cancer could not be attributable to more than a single cause.

c. Many of the cancers caused by environmental factors do not result in death.

d.It is possible for the results of even the most methodologically sound of studies to be proven wrong at a later date.

e. Dr. Bronstein fails to consider that many of the individuals whose cancers were environmentally caused may have also been smokers.

Perfume

My favorite perfume is Beautiful Sheer by Estee Lauder. I love things by Estee Lauder; it's the one company that I can honestly say I've never dislike anything that they've ever put out. Beautiful Sheer has a very floral-ly scent. It's the essence of the the many manifestations of femininity that the Estee Lauder empire was created upon.Egyptian Musk is something that I had just been introduced to a while ago. It had a very distinct scent to it. I kind of like it.

The another brand that I also use is Rive Gauche by Yves Saint Laurent. It has a very gentle floral scent to it as well. Casual but its very elegant.I also bought a small bottle of Opium by Yves Saint Laurent a while ago, and I thought the scent was a little strong for me. My friend says it reminds her of the perfume Taboo. It feels nice to have a good scent on you.
