...Final Project: Personal Nutrition Exercise Plan SCI/241 June 17, 2012 Tara Deters Final Project: Personal Nutrition Exercise Plan Over the last several weeks I have analyzed my current diet and exercise habits, as well as reading up on the USDA Food Pyramid Guide and their exercise recommendations. I have taken what I've learned in this class and what I have learned by doing a little research and I was able to personalize a nutrition, diet, and exercise plan for myself. For starters, I will need to take a good look at my current habits and that affect my nutrition and exercise plan. I like to believe I eat pretty healthy, but there is always room in improve. I'm not big on candy or sweets. I also have a hate for milk, so I only drink milk when I eat cereal, and milk is a needed for calcium and vitamin D. I love the sun so I tend to believe I get enough vitamin D from the sun. My diet consist of chicken, salad, vegetables, fruits and whole grains. Since I have an office job and the only time that I have to actually get away is during my lunch hour, so I'm not very active at work, so that kill eight hour of my day right there. I like to ride bikes and take walks, and every now and again I will roller blade. I can honestly say that I haven't been doing too much of any of this, as it's been pretty busy for me. These activities I do take part in aren't really stimulating, and my heart rate is raising much, because I do it at my pace not as if I'm racing...

...Competency Goal 1: Safe, Healthy, Learning Environment In my child care setting, I work hard to provide all children with a safe and healthy learning environment. I research and follow strict standards available from the state related to preventing and reducing injury and illness, helping children feel safe, following sound nutrition and fitness practices, and creating an enriching learning environment. My goal is to set up and maintain an environment that reduces the risk of injury to children. Because children lack the judgment to avoid hazards and because children learn by doing and interacting closely with others and their environment, injury can happen frequently in a child care setting. I accomplish this goal by keeping furniture and equipment in good repair and only having age-appropriate materials available to children. I inspect my environment (inside and outside) every day and I alert my director when I see a potential hazard. If there is an injury, I practice the correct First Aid guidelines and I inform the parent and the office in an accident report. I make sure that children are always cared for by qualified, responsible and healthy adults, so I make sure that staff files are complete and up-to-date. I am also diligent about maintaining emergency cards on each child and making sure that only authorized persons are dropping off and picking up. I am also always watching my children for signs of child abuse and neglect. I also want children to feel safe in my...

...John Reid Writing 150 February 2016 The Unstable Food Pyramid In the seventh grade I took a cooking class where I learned basic recipes and life skills. In this class I had my first introduction to the food pyramid made by the United States Department of Agriculture in 1992 (Godoy). I spent hours memorizing the ins and outs of a pyramid that was supposed to guide my dietary habits and ultimately lead me to a healthy lifestyle. This life tool (known as the food pyramid) showed me how many servings of grains, fruit, vegetables, meat, milk, and sugars I should consume daily. Even now I know that I am supposed to eat oils, sweets, and fats sparingly, and have three to five servings of vegetables each day. A year after engraining these numbers into my brain, I learned that all of my studying was in vain. During my eighth grade year the USDA introduced a new online program called MyPyramid. That program was only used for five years, and in 2010 (before I had even graduated from high school) the USDA slightly modified their food patterns. This is when the new MyPyramid was shaped into the newer and “better” MyPlate. My mind was bewildered as to how there could be so much change in an area that should have remained constant throughout one’s life. I began to wonder to myself “Are the current guides actually helping us, and should we be following them?” In order for the food guides to help us they should be more focused on three things: scientific basis, consistency, and personalization...

...Food Intake Daniel Catura SCI-220/Human Nutrition January 26, 2011 James A. Davis Food Intake The iProfile Journal entry I entered is for the day of Tuesday, January 25, 2011. The food and drink I consumed on Tuesday is like that of an average day for me with the exception of the alcohol I drank in the evening. I had an everyday breakfast of hash browns, eggs, bacon, and toast. I also drank a cup of orange juice and two cups of two percent milk. I do not usually eat at fast food restaurants, but for lunch I went to Long John Silver’s, where I ordered a number three off the restaurant’s menu. A number three includes two hush puppies, one fish plank, one chicken plan, French fries, and a medium soft drink. When I arrived home I promptly started preparing dinner that included a salad, pasta with sauce, and sausage. The salad was made of lettuce, tomatoes, onions, carrots, and cucumbers. I also used regular Italian Salad dressing. For the main course, I boiled Rigatoni, and topped off with Ragu pasta sauce. I added onions and mushrooms to the sauce. As for the side, I grilled two pork sausages. The beverage that accompanied dinner was a 20-ounce of Coca Cola. After dinner I went to a bar with my fiancée. At the bar I had two Captain Morgan’s Rum and Cokes and three Bud Lights. Before I inputted the consumption of food onto the iProfile site...

...Parmalat, Italy's giant dairy foods producer, was founded in 1961 by Calisto Tanzi, a 22 year-old college dropout and Italian food industry heir . The company was named for Parma (“the food valley” in Italian) and lat (an abbreviation of la tte, Italian for milk). Parmalat's major innovation allowed it to produce the first shelf-stable milk through an Ultra Heat Treatment (UHT) process developed in Sweden, enabling proc essors to produce milk that c ould be stored for long periods without refrigeration. The product was a hit, benef iting from its associations with and advertising through sports, including Formula One Racing an d Alpine Ski Championships. Parmalat was a European pioneer in brand advertising. Sale s rapidly expanded throughout Europe, Latin America and, in total, in over 30 countries. The firm rapidly grew into a family empire, the largest food company in Italy, the fourth la rgest food company in Europe, with over 36,000 employees in 139 plants and branching into a variety of industries including beverages, television, tourism, cookies and f ootball. In 1997, Parmalat initiat ed an aggressive campaign to acquire other firms, particularly in the Americas . One of its large purchases in 1997 was Beatrice Foods, a large U.S. producer. Many of these acqui sitions were huge money losers. Most of the acquisitions were financed with debt and the firm's debt ratings gradually deteriorated. 4 Nonetheless, Parmalat appeared...

...what is considered good manners, and how to gain someone’s attention. And social practices tie it all together, because it is the outward manifestation of beliefs, values and norms; consisting of the typical behavior patterns that individuals of a specific culture follow (Intercultural Communication, n.d.). Italy is an Italian speaking country in south central Europe, it is beautiful not only for its landscape but for its history and culture. Rome has been religious and political center of western civilization as the capital of the Roman Empire. Italy is dubbed as the world’s “living art gallery” because you are always surrounded by magnificent pieces of art. Sculptures and paintings from some of the most brilliant artists in history were made and are found in Italy (World Explorer). Ninety percent of the population in Italy is Roman Catholic; therefore most of the cultural in Italy is based around the Church and the love for art. This could make it very difficult for another culture to feel comfortable in Italy and be able to communicate if they do not share either the same values or respect for the Italian beliefs. Vatican City is a great example of Italian culture, combining both religion and art. St. Peter’s Basilica is known to be “the greatest of all churches of Christendom” and the Vatican museums are among the greatest museums in the world due to their extravagant collection of art built by the...

...A private club, with a rich community history, faces the challenge of membership declines and shrinking profits. Like many private clubs, the Hershey Italian Lodge’s declines are driven by economic downturns, aging membership, and increased competition.

...body weight and maintaining the proper personal care and hygiene on a daily basis. I believe that I live by a fairly healthy lifestyle and I exercise and eat the proper foods. However, upon completing my prior required assignment “Three Day Diet Analysis” and comparing my results to the recommended serving size and amount based on mypyramidtracker.gov website, I was shocked to find that my eating habits were not all that great despite the fact that I work-out five times a week, doing various physical activities such as, yoga, P90X, hip-hop abs, playing basketball, and running. Within this assignment, I will create a healthy eating plan for myself, implementing my personal recommendations from choosemyplate.gov website and my recommendations from mypyramidtracker.gov website. Furthermore, I will discuss my current eating habits and ways on how I plan to implement my healthy eating plan into my daily lifestyle. On any given day, I consume on average 2-3 8oz cups of Spanish espresso, way over the recommended daily amount, along with 1 12 oz. regular mountain dew. However, other than that I drink 1 full glass of 2% milk, 4-5 12 oz. bottles of water, 1-2 serving of fruits and vegetables, 4-6 serving of meats and beans and to be honest an unknown amount of fats, oils, and sweets. Other than the obvious no-no foods and drinks that I consume on a daily basis, I feel that my daily diet is not all that terrible.

...Italy. Contact: gio.dorio@unical.it 1.1. Introduction The collapse of the Parmalat food empire reveals a troubling aspect about Italian capitalism - the lack of effective financial control over its family-owned companies. But was Parmalat scandal a pure problem of corporate governance or was it simply a “fraud”? Bearle and Means (1932 pg. 6) famously explained: “The separation of ownership from control produces a condition where the interests of owner and of ultimate manager may, and often do, diverge ....”. Is this the case? Were the people who invested in bonds and shares of Parmalat savers, investors or what? Which was the role played in the story by Auditors, CONSOB and Bank of Italy? This paper analyse the current situation of the Italian corporate governance and saving system in a critical view trying to find an explanation to the previous questions. 1.2. Corporate Governance and the legislative decree 19/01/03nr. 6: the alternatives The Italian system of corporate governance does not fit in either of the categories of the well-known distinction between bank-based and stock exchange 102 based systems. Instead, it can be ranked among the first group of the more recent distinction between insider-dominated and out-sider dominated systems. All the distinctive variables of this group indicated by La Porta et al. (1998) can be found in the Italian system: Italian firms depend heavily on bank finance; banks have never played an important role in...
