...DIETER’S DELECTABLES Ltd. For many years, Mr. Dieter Bachembesser served as pastry chef at several of Toronto’s finest hotels, earning a reputation as one of the most knowledgeable people in the field of fine baking. In 1993, he used this knowledge to start Dieter’s Delicacies, a small firm that that sold fine baked goods to several of the area’s finest caterers. These products were made according to Dieter’s own specifications by Browne’s Bakery, a reputable producer of baked goods. While Dieter’s Delicacies was only a small part-time venture, it was financially successful, and Dieter’s reputation spread. In 1999, Dieter decided to quit working for hotels and to start his own business, Dieter’s Delectables Ltd., with himself as president and general manager. This new company operated in a similar manner to Dieter’s Delicacies, in that it did not produce goods, but rather operated in the distribution and wholesale business. Dieter’s purchased its entire product line from Browne’s Bakery, with whom Dieter had established a very satisfactory working relationship, and distributed and resold these to a variety of retail outlets under the company’s own private label brand of Dieter’s Delicacies.

...I was given the assignment to speak on President Uchtdorf’s 2015 General Conf talk It Works Wonderfully! “What is the difference between those whose experience in the Church fills their souls with songs of redeeming love and those who feel that something is lacking?” Many testify regardless of: poverty or prosperity find: great meaning, peace, joy through: commitment, dedicated service As I read over this I could no help but make this a connection with my family My family means so much to me because: love, sacrifice, time, hard times, good times, Uchtdorf goes on to ponder why it is that the gospel seems to work better for some than others. He poses two ideas: First: Are we making our discipleship too complicated? SIMPLIFY Gospel is so simple and beautiful even a child can grasp it A Baby knows love and trust That is the gospel LOVE. TRUST Profound and complex that it will take an eternity to understand it Isn’t that beautiful? How boring eternity would be if we spent all of time never having anything to learn or gain. Pres Uchtdorf goes on to tell us that living the gospel doesn’t need to be complicated. He then gave 5 points that describe how simple living the gospel should be: Hearing the word of God with earnest intent leads us to believe in God and to trust His promises.3 Simply be here at church when we are here, not thinking about what is going on at work, or about a big test that we have coming up. The more we trust God...

...“You can talk all you want about having a clear purpose and strategy for your life, but ultimately this means nothing if you are not investing the resources you have in a way that is consistent with your strategy. In the end, a strategy is nothing but good intentions unless it's effectively implemented.” –Clayton M. Christensen (1) Something that really struck me in Christensen’s book was when he talked about how he developed the strategy for his own life. At the time, Christensen was a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford, and his academic program was very demanding. Yet, Christensen “decided to spend an hour every night reading, thinking, and praying about why God put [him] on this earth.” This daily commitment was challenging to keep because it took him away from his studies, but reflecting upon that commitment and experience, he said: “Had I instead spent that hour each day learning the latest techniques for mastering the problems of autocorrelation in regression analysis, I would have badly misspent my life. I apply the tools of econometrics a few times a year, but I apply my knowledge of the purpose of my life every day. It’s the single most useful thing I’ve ever learned. I promise my students that if they take the time to figure out their life purpose, they’ll look back on it as the most important thing they discovered at HBS. If they don’t figure it out, they will just sail off without a rudder and get buffeted in the very rough seas of life.” (2) In order to answer the question...

...Atkins 40 year ago.1 He based his weight loss theory less intake of carbohydrates would force the body to turn stored fat into fuel.2 The program is divided into three stages: induction, ongoing weight loss and maintenance.3 In the induction phase the dieter is limiting carbohydrate intake to 20 grams per day. Protein is unlimited and obtained by eating meats, eggs and cheese. The 20 grams of carbohydrates per day are obtained through allowed vegetables. During this phase, breads, alcohol, nuts, caffeine, seeds and legumes are strictly banned. During the ongoing weight loss phase, the dieter still limits the total carbohydrates but is able to add some back. This new grams of carbohydrates should be obtained by more vegetables, seeds and nuts. Low carb alcoholic beverages are now allowed. This can, however, slow continued weight loss. During this phase, the dieter needs to monitor weight and carb intake. When the dieter’s weight plateaus, the dieter either needs to decrease the carb intake to continue to lose weight or stay at that carb level to maintain the current body weight. The maintenance stage is based on that carb intake number where the dieter begins to no longer lose weight. That is the level the dieter needs to ingest to maintain the desired weight.4 The Atkins Program has many pros to it. There are no meetings to attend. There are no prepackaged...

...Eating Disorders Research Paper | | | Eating disorders are sweeping this country and are rampant on junior high, high school, and college campuses. These disorders are often referred to as the Deadly Diet, but are often known by their more popular names: anorexia or bulimia. They affect more than 20% of females between the age of thirteen and forty. It is very rare for a young female not to know of someone with an eating disorder. Statistics show that at least one in five young women have a serious problem with eating and weight (Bruch, 25). The Deadly Diet appears to be a mostly female problem. Eating disorders are most common in the middle to upper middle class families. Currently, the incidence is much lower in females from the "blue collar" families. The Deadly Diet can begin anywhere from the ages of ten to thirty. The peak age for the beginning of the Deadly Diet in females is eleven to fifteen; the peak for males is between fifteen and eighteen (Bauer, 89). Most of the information on the Deadly Diet says that it is a problem of teenage girls, but as clinics have found, most of the people who come to get therapy are in their twenties and thirties. This may be because younger people are less likely to seek professional help. Most often it is the parent who brings the patient for help. Adults who have left home and had to deal with managing their lives usually tend to realize more clearly the need to seek help and make changes. Everywhere one looks today...

...eat may increase the probability of overeating. Wardle and Beale randomly assigned 27 obese women to three groups. These were the diet group, the exercise group, and the non-treatment group. The study assessed each group at both weeks 4 and 6, with the food intake and appetite at 4 weeks being assessed before and after a small snack, and at week 6, it was measured under stressful conditions, in order to show how each group would fare under various settings. The study found that women in the diet group actually ate more in both assessments than the other two groups. This study backs up the ideas of restraint theory. Research support for restraint theory comes from Ogden (2003), who tested the failure of dieting by giving a group of dieters and non dieters a high or low calorie snack such as chocolate or crackers, then followed by a taste preference test of other foods.Ogden found that the...

...According to helpingyoucare.com, if current trends continue as they are, in 39 U.S. states more than 50 percent of adults could be obese by 2030, 13 states could have adult obesity rates above 60% and all 50 states would have obesity rates of more than 44 percent. With these staggering facts, it is no wonder that there are so many diet plans on the market today. I believe that all of us have been on different diets at different times of our lives. Weight Watchers and Nutrisystem are diets that have been around for over 30 years. It is up to the individual to decide which plan would work best for the results which are trying to be achieved. Depending on the different options, convenient but pricey or cooking different foods for yourself, it is up to the individual to choose the diet option that best suits their needs. No doubt, Nutrisystem is a diet of convenience when it is compared to the Weight Watcher’s diet. When using the Nutrisystem diet, all of the food is prepackaged and portion controlled. You don’t have to figure out points or if the food is something you should be eating. All the meals are supplied to you when you order the nutrisystem diet. The only thing you have to add to Nutrisystem is some grocery additions, such as vegetables and smart carbohydrates. Unlike Nutrisystem, the Weight Watcher’s diet has to be calculated with points and measuring different foods. Depending on what you are making, there is not...

...Studio Learning Task 1 – What is Design? Q1. What was the industrial revolution? When did it occur? How did industrialisation lead to the creation of the design profession? How was industrial manufacturing different from the traditional way of making a product and what role did the designer play in creating new products? The industrial revolution, which began in England around the 19th century, was the transition of a once rural and agricultural society into one in which new manufacturing processes were introduced. Industrialisation gave way to more jobs, and with products beginning to be produced in factories or with more advanced equipment, it meant that the product design and the actual production were no longer done by the same person. Q2. Explain what series and mass production means. What other factors over time have contributed to the high turnover and international sales of manufactured products? Mass production, or otherwise known as series production, is the manufacturing of a product in bulk. Mass production reduces wasted resources and shortens the amount of time needed to produce the product as it generally utilizes an assembly line. Q3 Using your own words, explain the meaning of the term “form follows function” and its significance. The supporters of Modernist design and functionalism assumed two things about form follows function. What were they? What do you understand by the meaning of each of these? Explain in your own words. Form follows function...
