Assignment 6: Food Safety Concerns
General Description and Purpose:
The purpose of this assignment is for you to apply the information presented in Chapter
19.
Specific Assignment:
Answer the 5 questions below:
1. Foodborne illnesses can be very debilitating for an individual. Patients in what
might be considered higher risk groups such as infants, pregnant women, and
the elderly or individuals with chronic illnesses can be devastated and could die
from an infection by a bacterium, virus, or parasite that was a result of poor food
handling. Discuss your multidimensional food safety educational program for a
mother of an infant, a pregnant mom, and a caretaker for an elderly parent.
2. Discuss the concept of “Bioaccumulation of Toxins in the Food Chain.” What role
to you believes that you play as a future RD in helping to prevent the continued
growth in the bioaccumulation of toxins in the food chain?
3. Describe five environmental contaminants and/or pesticides that gain access to
our food supply and suggest alternatives to minimize the risk they pose.
4. Food additives are believed to provide benefits to our food supply and, as
indicated in Chapter 19, are regulated by the FDA to protect the food supply from
harmful practices. Discuss five types of food additives and the rationale for their
use in the food supply. Then provide your perspective on whether you believe
that food additives offer advantages overall to the food supply or have the
potential of causing more harm given the potential for human error and business
fraud.
5. The human body is over 65% water. A changing climate appears to be resulting
in vast changes in our glaciers and important ice formations, causing scientists
real concerns about the changing temperatures on our planet and our water
resources. As noted in Chapter 19, contamination of water resources is a
concern and consumers have reacted to potential contamination of water with an
increased consumption of bottled water. However, as you are aware, bottled
water is often not the best choice both budget wise and with regard to local
minerals found in the soil that can be healthful. What are some steps that your
clients can take to increase their consumption of water instead of carbonated
beverages or other high-fructose corn syrup drinks? How might you educate
them or convince them that tap water is a better alternative to bottled water or
other options?
Possible Points:
This is one of the periodic assignments made throughout the course. The possible point
total for all of the periodic assignments is stated in the syllabus. The possible point total
for
each assignment, including this one, depends on the total number of assignments
ultimately
given in the course. This assignment will be given a grade based on the following
assessment.
90-100% – More than satisfactory.
80-89% – Satisfactory.
70-79% – Less than satisfactory.
60-69% – Very much less than satisfactory.

Hand-in Assignment_7:

Capital maintenance through profit distribution restrictions is a controversial issue in academic discussion. One inflammatory statement not in favour of a capital maintenance regime stated:

We believe, that certain interest groups with more influence in Europe than in the United States benefit significantly from the legal capital rules, despite their inefficiency. Two other interest groups that clearly benefit are accountants and lawyers (who must guide through the labyrinth of needlessly complicated legal capital rules). Furthermore, most European corporate lawyers have invested significant human capital in becoming familiar with the legal capital rules. Repealing these rules would destroy the value of that human capital.

Enriques, Luca and Macey, Jonathan R., (2001) Creditors versus Capital Formation: The Case Against the European Legal Capital Rules, Cornell Law Review, 86 (6), p. 1202.

Describe and explain the main provisions of the current UK capital maintenance regime for companies. What are the principal objectives of the capital maintenance rules creditor protection by providing a capital buffer zone, or company and shareholder protection by preventing asset stripping, or other? Are these objectives mutually exclusive or do they support each other? Do the current rules provide adequate protection for creditors or shareholder? As part of your analysis, consider the advantages and disadvantages of adopting a solvency declaration as a support to such rules (or a solvency test, as in New Zealand, as a replacement for such rules).

This assignment is to write the first five paragraphs of your research paper and turn them in on Monday, 11/4. This assignment must include the following: (1) your description of the good political life: (2) identify that one aspect of the good political life that you are going to write about, why it’s important, what you hope to “prove;” (3) a description of the method you are using – theoretical integration with its three parts (normative, empirical, and prudential); (4) identify the political philosopher(s) you are utilizing; (5) identify the “mass/popular” journal article you are using (6) include one Chicago style footnote; and (7) attach the “mass/popular journal” article you are using. These are seven requirements; any missing piece will result in points being deducted from your overall score.
Paragraphs must be at least four sentences in length.
(1) through (3) could easily be the first three paragraphs. Paragraph 4 might be a description of how your aspect of the good political life “should be” (the normative), and paragraph 5 would begin the description of what the situation with your topic actually is (the empirical).
You have considerable liberty to arrange the paragraphs to your liking. You could, for instance, begin your paper with a story or anecdote that would precede your description of the good political life. Be creative, but include the seven requirements. The philospher to use is Mark Twain. I only need this part by Friday or Saturday 11-1 or 11-2. Everything must be done Chicago Style and there has to be at least 1 foot note Then the rest of the paper we have until November 15 or 16 to finish. I would like the 5 paragraphs as soon as possible so we have a chance to look it over. If you note in the instructions the article to use needs to be attached. If you have any further questions you can call or send me a message. Thank you

This paper needs to talk about how the federal budget, revenue, and expenditures have changed since 1960. The way it needs to be set up is by decade so (1960-1970, 1970-1980,….2010-Present). In each decade you need to break down where the revenue was coming from for example what percent was from personal income tax, social security, excise tax etc. Same with Expenditures and how the budget was laid out (how much was allocated to defense, infrastructure, welfare, pensions, healthcare) You can use charts and graphs in the essay however not many. Also when you use them refer to them in the essay and make sure all data is in current dollar amounts not constant. During each decade you can talk about how political factors affect the revenue and budget like for example a war might have increase expenditures on defense. Make sure to be as detailed as possible using data about revenue and expenditure numbers when talking about each decade. Then to finish off the paper you need to pick a component of revenue or expenditure and analyze it.

Structure Guidelines.
Introduction. The introduction lays out the specific research questions, the context of the paper (e.g., systems theory, domestic sources of foreign policy, diplomacy and negotiation, alliances and international organizations, etc.), and provides a brief overview of the paper.
b. Theory. This section lays out the theoretical framework that guides the case study. It discusses the relevant theoretical literature and derives from it a set of hypotheses that are researched in the next sections.
c. Narrative of the Historical Case/cases. Brief description of the facts and the historical processes. Be sure to discuss the actors, the problems, and the facts that are relevant to the analysis, and not provide unnecessary information.
d. Analysis. This section applies the concepts, approaches, ideas, and methods entailed in the theory you are using on the historical case/cases. Be sure to relate the analysis of the case to specific hypotheses that you had specified in the theory section. The key question here is whether and how the facts of the case support or contradict the hypotheses. Also, it is useful to say something about if and how the theory helps explain seemingly inexplicable aspects of the historical case.
e. Conclusion. This section summarizes your findings and whatever other conclusions you derived from the research. You can also point out shortcomings or advantages in the theory on the basis of your study of the case. If there are policy implications, please mention them.
f. Bibliography. List all of the sources you cited or relied upon in the paper, and only those sources that are referenced in the paper. If you used additional sources that were not explicitly referenced in your paper, do not list them in the bibliography.
Citation Guidelines
The general rule for citing or referring to sources in the paper is to use the author’s (or author’s) name/s, the date of publication and the page numbers in parentheses next to the argument that refers to a particular source.
The bibliography should list all the sources referenced in your paper in alphabetical order. The rules for citing in the bibliography are the following.
(Books. Author’s last name, author’s first name and middle initials, year of publication, book title (in italics or underlined), edition (if more than first), city of publication, publisher.)

Purpose: Multigenre (or multimodal or multimedia) writing presents academic arguments through a variety of approaches rather than producing a traditional, linear paper.  Such a project gives you experience writing in different forms, for different audiences, and presenting your research through media you will likely encounter in future courses and professions.  This project asks you to be both scholarly and creative; to pay close attention to matters of audience, research, argument, and style; to employ critical thinking and problem solving skills you will need under any circumstance.  By handling research in this way, you will continue to build the writing skills you’ve developed in Sequences 1-3 and learn how to better recognize that thinking is conditioned by the discourses in which you write.  In this project, you will conduct “deep” research; work in collaboration with others; make conscious decisions about what information is important to your argument; and make mindful choices about how to present that information to your audience(s) through different genres.

 

Description: Through a collection of genres you write, you will create multilayered arguments about a society of superheroes, paying specific attention to issues of “difference” (race/ethnicity, class, gender, sexuality, nationality, ability/disability, etc.).  In a multigenre research project, each piece of writing is self-contained, making an argument on its own, entering into a specific rhetorical situation, having its own audience.  At the same time, each self-contained piece is connected to the others by topic, theme, and other unifying elements.  In addition to many genres, an MGRP may also contain many voices.  The trick is to make such a paper hang together.  The main objective is to be sure not to simply recycle the same information over and over; the reader should learn something new in each piece.  Since each group’s projects will be different, I cannot tell you what the end result will look like.  So this is a good time for group conferences.

 

 

Project Research Requirements

 

Required research sources:

• Primary sources:  You must use and cite information from at least 2 primary sources for the superhero society you research.  This could include films, comic books or strips, graphic novels, novels, short stories, fan fiction, visual/art pieces, etc.

 

• Secondary scholarly sources: You must use and cite information from at least 2 academic, peer-reviewed articles per group member from the library databases.  (So, for example, if you have 3 people in the group, you need 6 sources; if you have four people to a group, you need 8 sources).  These sources could provide general background knowledge on superheroes applicable to your study; specific background information on the superhero society you’re researching; general information on the diversity issues you are addressing; help you write your literature review; help you support your arguments in other genres, etc.

 

• Secondary popular sources: You may use up to (but not exceeding) 4 popular secondary sources.  These might include websites, TV news, newspaper or magazine reports, non-academic journal articles, blogs, etc.

 

 

 

Project Writing Requirements

 

• Table of contents:  List each genre of the project, in the order that they should be read.

 

• Introduction to Project/Superhero Society Profile (3 pages, minimum):  This genre serves two purposes:  1) it should introduce your topic and the project’s specific arguments to your audience and 2) should profile the superhero society on which the project focuses.  This genre should be a “reading guide” for your readers, helping them understand the project’s arguments, why they are important, and what the group’s purpose/goal is in making these arguments.   At the same time, the genre should use thick and engaging details to bring the superhero society to life for your readers—especially focusing on the kinds of differences in the society and among the superheroes.

 

• Visual/image:  This visual element can be of your own design, a graphic, clip art, or a photograph of your own or one that you have culled from a source.  It can be an image, a graph, a symbol or chart.  It can even be filmed.  It can stand alone or be embedded in another genre, but it must be used effectively.  If you do take the image from another source, you must cite it in-text and on your Works Cited page.

 

• Literature review (3 pages, minimum):  This genre focuses specifically on your peer-reviewed articles.  In this genre, you will describe and analyze the topics, issues, arguments, and trends (argumentative patterns) among these articles.  For more instruction on writing this genre, see the course pack (“Writing for the Social Sciences,” section 63b, pp. 584-585). 

 

• Argumentative essay on an issue of difference (4 pages, minimum): For this genre, select one of the academic disciplines that we covered in Sequence Two and write an argument about “difference” in your superhero society.  Use the following as your research questions the argument should answer: what kinds of differences exist in the society?  How are those differences represented?  For what purposes are differences included?  How do the differences relate to the audiences of that superhero society?  What are the effects of differences on a variety of audiences?  Depending on the academic discipline you choose, you must apply the disciplinary conventions, discourses, and documentation styles of that discipline in the writing of this essay.

 

• Genre of choice (500 words, minimum):  See the list of genres attached to this assignment prompt for ideas, but you aren’t limited to those genres.

 

• At least one additional genre of choice (without word limit):  Again, see the list of genres attached to this prompt.

 

• Works Cited page: This should list all sources, primary and secondary sources, as well as any visuals that you did not construct/create yourself.

 

• Reflective memo (500 words, minimum):  While the group will work together to produce all the other genres of the project, each student must complete and turn in his/her own memo.  In your individual writers’ memos, explain the following:

Þ     What are the strengths of the project and why?  What would you have changed about the project and why?

Þ     What specific steps did the group take to research, write, and revise the project?

Þ     How well did the whole group work together on the project?

Þ     How did the group divide responsibilities for the project?  What did each group member (not you) contribute to the project? How well did each group member do on their assigned tasks?  (please be fair, accurate, and honest in your responses).

Þ     What did you contribute to the project?  How responsible were you to the whole group? How well did you do on your assigned task? (please be fair, accurate, and honest in your response).

As with your group facilitation, collectively and individually, these writers’ memos determine individual student grades.  Thus, it is important to be as accurate, honest, and specific as possible in responses to the questions.  As with the group facilitation, students in the group who perform outstanding work may be upgraded in the evaluation of the project; and conversely, students whose contributions are lacking or students who do not complete their writing tasks may be downgraded in the evaluation.  It’s another real-world experience of communicating, listening, working effectively together—as you will do not only in other classes, but especially in your future professional situations.
