    My grandfather really needed this person to work the next day so he decided to take the deer off his hands and put it in the garage at the store so that the employee would not get caught and be unable to work the next day. Although while having the deer in the back of his truck it came alive! So, my grandfather had to pull over onto the side of the road on the way to the shop and finish the job off of killing the illegal deer. The story really connects to my grandfather’s story because of how the laws were there but not at the same time. In Mosher’s story the main character does not tell the game warden who killed the deer and who…

    The article, “Save the Planet. Eat Ugly.” By Caroline Chauvet describes a new movement to waste less food by selling visibly unappealing fruit. Nicolas Chabanne runs a French campaign called Gueules Cassées, which translates to Ugly Mugs. The goal of this campaign is to bring food to the markets that are otherwise deemed anesthetically flawed and don’t normally make their way to markets. The idea is that a farmer can buy an Ugly Mug logo and but it on his uglier fruits. These fruits can then be sold at markets as long as they are at least 30% cheaper than the “prettier” produce. The logo only cost a few cents and most of the money goes to groups that are also fighting food waste. By consuming the fruits and vegetable instead on throwing them…

    Saturday afternoon on 7/31/12, i was patrolling in front of Bill's Card Shop when i noticed a customer leaving the Sports Bar & Grill. The customer appeared to have trouble walking, but they were not causing any trouble. As i continued patrolling the grounds i heard a crash, and i immediately went to go see what had happened. When i arrived i saw two cars that had seemed to have struck each other in the parking lot in front of Bill's Card Shop. I proceeded to the accident and notice that a Black Ford Escort, driven by a 25 year old female and a Blue Honda Civic, driven by a 45 year old male i saw leave the Sports Bar and Grill had collided. The Blue Honda Civic apparently backed into the Black Ford Escort, with the information gathered i called…

    Analysis: The Hunger Game

    • 354 Words

    The hunger game definitely describes the conflict between worker class and capital class in a extreme case. And that’s the frequent criticism on capitalism such that it makes the rich richer and the poor poorer. Luckily, capitalism comes with democracy and the people can throw away their government if they suffer too much. I once took a philosophy class which we analyzed a lots of social model from different philosophers and discussed which is the best model. We came to the conclusion that a good social model should have a clear bottom line, and the government have the responsibility to keep all the people above that bottom line to prevent the “bottom people” suffering. In contrast to communism, this model doesn’t have a top line to prevent…

    In David Zinczenko’s Don’t Blame the Eater article, he blames the fast-food industry for starting the rising obesity problem because of the failure of providing the facts and warnings labels about their high calorie junk food to the consumers. Zinczenko argues that kids are drawn by the cheap, high-calorie junk food that the fast-food chains like McDonald’s, Taco Bell, Kentucky Fried Chicken, or Pizza Hut are happy to supply because with lots of parents working all day, they do not have time to check what their children are eating. For Example, the author David Zinczenko states that when he was a little boy, his mother would always be away at work, so he would eat Taco Bell, McDonald’s, and at other places every day, and he ended up obese.…

    Robert Kenner’s documentary, Food Inc., gives insight into operations in the food industry. The documentary depicts the people’s desire for money, with resultant implications characterized by mass production through varying approaches. Indeed, Kenner seeks to sensitize the society on the manner in which animals are exposed to inhumane conditions, severe health conditions that result from mass production in the food industry, and unmoral circumstances under which farmers operate. Whereas various flaws are depicted in the movie, it remains important in relation to societal operations and development. This positional essay provides a critique of Robert…

    Ethics of Hunting

    Is hunting ethical? As a hunter myself, growing up in a family of hunters, I never answered the question correctly. When asked the question “is hunting ethical?” I would rattle off information and statistics about wildlife population control and the environmental information gathered by hunters, but I seemed to be missing the point completely. As it was recently pointed out, it was like I was being asked what time it was, and answering the date. I wasn’t incorrect; rather, I was just answering the wrong question. Instead, I needed to look at what the actual question was; is the act of hunting ethical, and if not, what are we doing to prevent the mistreatment of animals?…

    Before reading Jill Dubisch’s article You Are What You Eat, I had many presumptions regarding how Dubisch would connect the health food movement to Geertz and his definition of religion. When thinking about the supposed “premise” of religion, I had always believed the vague and obscure definition that religion is a set of beliefs and practices that center around a divine force. Because of my ignorance regarding religion, my views were incredulous concerning Dubisch and her claim of connecting the food movement to Geertz’s definition. After delving into the works of Dubisch and Geertz, I came to the conclusion that while Dubisch had displayed a logical connection with food in relation to…

    A Hunger Artist Analysis

    The life of an artist stems from the originality of their art; however, sometimes the public does not understand or appreciate the art the artist dedicated wholeheartedly to. A Hunger Artist by Franz Kafka explored the ambition of an artist to achieve a feat no one had ever accomplished before, but instead of receiving admiration from the spectators the artist is faced with a cold response. The hunger artist used fasting as a form of artistic endeavor for his own liking, but the art is soon turned into a mode of entertainment just to please the public’s fascination, even though they do not appreciate the deeper meaning behind his art. Being the only one who could truly understand his art completely, the hunger artist is never satisfied and…

    Maggie Helwig’s short essay Hunger explores the idea of negative body imaging and how media within today’s society promotes an unhealthy view of one’s body through the use of models and celebrities. Helwig argues that if the world would learn how to approach women with issues before they have reached the point of potentially harming themselves than eating disorders would not be as common as they are. She has provided the reader with an overall convincing argument involving women and body image through the use of an intelligent voice, first-hand experiences, and information on the focus of industries.…

    It's terrible that world hunger is a major problem, yet, many people decide to throw away food on a daily basis because of tiny reasons. Just last week I witnessed employees from a bakery throwing away bread because it was a day old. All of this food that's thrown away can easily be given to people that are in need. A solution to world hunger is definitely to donate food, even a bit of cash can help. A small group of people donating is better than none. Additionally, another solution is to include more vegetables in our diets instead of animals. The food production of foods derived from animals is more expensive. Furthermore, this class has positively impacted the way I eat, I tend to watch what I eat throughout the day now. The nutrient analysis…
