    In an excerpt “Western Diet” from Michael Pollan’s, reminds us of the many different nutritional theories behind the large number of diseases that afflict those who eat the “Western Diet” However, Pollan disagrees with these theories and states that both the food and health industries are partially to blame for this. Pollan claims the food industry is to blame because they use these different nutritional theories to release new products, and that the health industry is to blame because they use these theories to develop new prescriptions and treatment methods. Denis Burkitt suggests that the only way to avoid this vicious cycle is to “go backwards to the diet and lifestyle of our ancestors” (439), which Pollan interprets as “eat foods that are less processed”. While this sounds easy enough, Pollan points out that this is not as straightforward as it sounds and that even factors like soil condition and livestock feed make this concept a daunting task. Pollan’s answer to this paradox is to simply eat smarter and he goes as far to suggest that we ourselves are part of the problem because we do not spend enough money or time in terms of preparation on food. Finally, during his conclusion Pollan gives us three rules that he claims will help us to “Escape the Western Diet”(437,) which include “Eat Food, not too much, and mostly plants” which is pretty simple when you think about it.…

    After spending five years working as a patrolman I am now the new member of a tactical team. As most new members of any team I would want to impress the other team members and prove myself by doing outstanding work. We have spent several months following Mr. Lincoln and his crew I am starting to feel restless. The fun of following the same man for months has died and I am starting feel that it is time to bring this to end. I do not think I would take matters into my own hands but for the sake of the Branching Scenario we will say I did.…

    As someone not overly tolerant of military conflict, in light of the divisive war in Iraq and considering the unpopular nature of the Vietnam War in U.S. society; I decided to choose Tim O'Brien's account of combat in Vietnam in "The Things They Carried." I found outside commentary on this story by searching for reviews and analyses of the work on EBSCO Host, the university research database. I also surveyed the commentaries in The Story and Its Writer to add substance to my own analysis of the story. The most useful sources were the more scholarly ones that came from EBSCO host in journals like Critique and the Explicator.…

    Ch. 23 - Ideologies and Upheavals 1815-1850 AP European History After studying this chapter, you should be able to: * describe the goals of the leaders of the Congress of Vienna and how the balance of power was reset. * define and describe conservatism, socialism, liberalism, and nationalism. * discuss the factors in the romantic revolt against the age of classicism and the French Revolution. * analyze the lingering remnants of the French Revolution and explain how they exerted influence on political development in the first half of the 19th century. Page 755-759 1. Describe and define the concept “balance of power” in 1814-1815. It refers to an international equilibrium of political and military forces that would discourage aggression by any combination of states or the domination of Europe by any single state. 2. Describe the treatment of France by the victors in 1814. Why wasn’t the treatment harsher? The Great Powers (Austria, Britain, Prussia, Russia) did not want to create a lasting enemy in France by imposing harsh and humiliating peace terms. As a result, treatment was quite lenient, with France given boundaries it possessed in 1792 (larger than those of 1789), the restoration of the Bourbon dynasty (Louis XVIII), no war reparations. The Great Powers did, however, define a strong defensive measures to ensure that France would not again be a forceful aggressor. 3. Who were the participants and what was the purpose of the Holy Alliance and the congress system? Established by Russia Czar Alexander I and made up of Austria, Prussia and Russia in 1815 – it was Alexander’s hope that leaders would rule with Christian virtues. It was, however, yet another instrument that oppressed liberal and revolutionary movements. 4. Describe the makeup of the Austrian Empire. Austria was made up of a plethora of ethnic groups – including the dominant Germans (25% of the population), Magyars (Hungarians), Czechs, Italians, Poles, Ukrainians, Slovenes, Croats, Serbs, and…

    The Graduate Essay

    “Just one word … plastics,” the statement that alone can summarize Mike Nichols’ 1967 film, The Graduate. However, when Mr. McQuire tells the movie’s main character, Ben Braddock, that there is "a great future in plastics" he finds it irrelevant and escapes to be alone in his room. However this comment surreptitiously creates a parallel to everything we see in Ben’s life. Whether it be the apprehensive relationship with his parents, an alienated affair with Mrs. Robinson, or the near unsuccessful pursuit in finding the man within, the film conveys a strong sense of how fear and self doubt can lead to the ultimate downfall in a person.…
